Company Voluntary Arrangement: CVA Implementation

On 26 April and 30 April 2018, Carpetright announced that the unsecured creditors and shareholders of the Company respectively had approved the terms of a company voluntary arrangement proposed by the directors of the Company (the "CVA Proposal").

Following the expiry of the statutory 28 day challenge period, full implementation of the CVA Proposal remained subject to the satisfaction of a final condition, namely the receipt of the net proceeds from the Placing and Open Offer.

Carpetright is pleased to announce that following the receipt of the net proceeds of the Placing and Open Offer (£60.0 million), all conditions to the implementation of the CVA Proposal have been satisfied and the CVA Proposal has been implemented in accordance with its terms.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement have the same meanings given to them in the prospectus published by Carpetright on 18 May 2018 in connection with the Placing and Open Offer.
