Crystallex Updates on Recent Activities

26.01.2012  |  Marketwired
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/26/12 -- Crystallex International Corporation (OTCQB: CRYXF) ('Crystallex' or the 'Company') issued today an update regarding activities since obtaining an initial order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) for protection under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) ('CCAA'), dated December 23, 2011.

On December 23, 2011, Crystallex received an initial order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granting CCAA protection until January 21, 2012. Under the order, proceedings by creditors or others cannot be continued or commenced without the consent of the Company and Ernst & Young Inc. (the Monitor) or leave of the Court. On January 20, 2012, the Court extended the stay until March 23, 2012. At the same time, the Court approved the terms of an interim bridge loan for Crystallex in the amount of US$3.125 million. The bridge loan is a secured, short term loan, due the earlier of April 16, 2012 or the first draw on a debtor-in-possession ('DIP') financing facility, and is intended to provide the Company with working capital while it continues to pursue DIP financing and progress its arbitration claim.

Crystallex has also commenced a proceeding under chapter 15 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in order to ensure that relevant CCAA orders are enforced in the United States. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court has recognized Crystallex's CCAA proceeding as well as the initial order and subsequent stay extension of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.


Crystallex Arbitration against Venezuela

At an initial hearing on December 1, 2011 the arbitral tribunal appointed under the rules of the Additional Facility of the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes ('ICSID') in respect of the Company's arbitration claim agreed upon a schedule of written submissions and set the final oral hearing date. Based upon the schedule set for the claim, Crystallex is obligated to file its first written submission with ICSID on February 10, 2012 and Venezuela's first written submission is due to be filed on August 31, 2012. Both parties will file additional submissions in 2013, Crystallex on January 18, 2013 and Venezuela on June 10, 2013 with the final oral hearing set for November 11-22, 2013 in Washington, D.C.
