Such a motion has been filed by its largest creditor, Agencja Rozwoju Przemys\u0142u, which is seeking a liquidation sale. The company's sanctioning administrator, the law firm PMR Restrukturyzacje SA, does not share this position. It believes that it is faster and more beneficial for everyone to increase the company's value and refinance its debt.<\/p>\n<p>In recent days, articles about the issue have appeared on the internet and in the regional press. <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/hawe-telekom-intends-to-cooperate-with-huawei-polska\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1426\">Hawe Telekom<\/a>, in which its largest creditor \u2013 the Industrial Development Agency \u2013 disputes the facts regarding the restructuring proceedings and confirms that it is seeking to quickly sell the company to a new investor. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/hawe-will-appeal-the-arp-motion\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1628\">ARP Hawe<\/a> The telecom needs &quot;rapid therapy, and the restructuring proceedings are like extending the drip that will not get it back on its feet&quot;, as Joanna Zakrzewska, spokeswoman for the ARP, told the daily &quot;Polska The Times&quot; (&quot;Gazeta Wroc\u0142awska&quot; of April 3, 2017).<\/p>\n<p>I do not agree with this position. <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/hawe-application-for-a-change-of-the-restructuring-manager\/\">Rehabilitation manager<\/a> companies \u2013 the law firm PMR Restrukturyzacje SA, which believes that these claims contradict the facts. The administrator indicates that thanks to the restructuring, the company&#039;s business, operational and financial situation has been stabilized, and new investments are being implemented in accordance with the restructuring plan, which has been positively reviewed by the creditors&#039; council and approved by the judge commissioner.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ramka1\">- Interrupting the process <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/restructuring-as-a-way-to-deal-with-the-problems-of-local-government-companies\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"182\">restructuring at such an advanced stage and the declaration of bankruptcy of the company<\/a>in order to sell it to an unknown potential investor (ARP has not indicated any specific entity so far), creates a huge risk of destabilization of the business activity, may result in the loss of contractors and reduce the value of the company - believes Maciej Roch Pietrzak from PMR Restrukturyzacje SA.<\/div>\n<p>In the trustee's view, a liquidation sale rather than a refinancing of the business or a conciliatory arrangement sale may be considered to be to the detriment of creditors and shareholders. A bankruptcy sale does not assure creditors of quick repayment of debts (the average duration of bankruptcy proceedings in Poland is three years), let alone satisfaction of creditors in full.<\/p>\n<p><b>ARP is blocking <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/company-restructuring\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1808\">restructuring?<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>The Industrial Development Agency, disregarding the provisions of the restructuring law and the prohibitions arising therefrom, accuses Hawe Telekom of allocating its entire profit for 2016 (PLN 31 million) to infrastructure investments instead of paying off debts to its creditors. In fact, in March 2016, Hawe Telekom's board of directors announced that the manager, as part of its ongoing restructuring plan, had concluded a contract for the deployment of Huawei's state-of-the-art DWDM transmission system to increase network capacity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ramka1\">\u2013 This investment is being carried out in accordance with the restructuring plan, which has not been changed so far, and the creditors&#039; council has never requested it \u2013 explains Ma\u0142gorzata Anisimowicz, president of the law firm <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/pmr-announcement-restructuring-sa-2\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2176\">PMR Restructuring<\/a> SA. \u2013 The implementation of such a plan is the administrator&#039;s duty and there is no basis for expecting that the administrator will cease restructuring activities or undertake other ones. The creditors&#039; council did not file a motion to the judge-commissioner to change the plan, but it demands <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/hawe-sa-has-submitted-an-application-to-change-the-issuers-manager\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2175\">Changes to the manager<\/a>, which is surprising \u2013 he adds.<\/div>\n<p>According to the restructuring administrator, the agreement with Huawei gives the company a huge opportunity to increase its value and repay its debts, because the Chinese telecommunications company, in addition to technological and business support, also declares <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/how-can-i-get-help-with-the-restructuring-process\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1903\">assistance in obtaining refinancing for restructuring<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to the administrator, the ARP&#039;s expectations regarding the quick repayment of debts by <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/mediatel-appeals-against-the-resolution-of-the-creditors-council-regarding-the-change-of-the-administrator-of-hawe-telekom\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1425\">Hawe Telekom<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ramka1\">- In the course of the sanitation proceedings, this is impossible, because it is prohibited by the restructuring law, and the proceedings themselves are prolonged due to objections filed, among others, by the Industrial Development Agency, explains Maciej Roch Pietrzak from PMR Restrukturyzacje SA. - This makes it impossible for the commissioner's judge to approve the list of receivables and set the date for voting on the arrangement, although objections as unjustified are successively dismissed by the court, he adds.<\/div>\n<p><b>A new opportunity policy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Debt repair, revitalization and refinancing <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/can-companies-afford-bankruptcy\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"181\">the company instead of its bankruptcy<\/a>, liquidation and sale in pieces was made possible by the new act on restructuring law, which has been in force since 1 January 2016.

Therefore, the legislator has made it impossible to enforce the debtor&#039;s assets or liquidation bankruptcy from the moment of opening <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/the-remedial-action-is-a-response-to-the-crisis\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1629\">sanitation proceedings<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ramka1\">- <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/the-worlds-largest-chemical-company-lowers-its-annual-targets\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"313\">The aim of the restructuring is to restore the company<\/a> ability to compete on the market, settle current liabilities and refinance debt to previous creditors. Everyone should therefore be interested in building the value of such an economic entity and increasing its investment attractiveness, and not in its depreciation, slander and media obstruction of the implementation of operational activities - believes Maciej Roch Pietrzak.<\/div>\n<p>As the rehabilitation administrator adds, <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/what-mistakes-do-debtors-most-often-make-during-restructuring\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"844\">during the restructuring process<\/a> Hawe Telekom has had many cases of refusal to conclude new commercial contracts (sometimes multi-year and multi-million) due to information appearing in the media that did not correspond to reality and slandered the company.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/instead-of-bankruptcy-restructuring\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"545\">Restructuring halted bankruptcy<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>This is the second one <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/whether-the-bankruptcy-application-can-be-filed-electronically-only\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1004\">bankruptcy petition<\/a> Hawe Telekom submitted by the Industrial Development Agency.
