SEC urges STRD24DA bondholders to exercise their rights at the upcoming bondholders’ meeting



Tuesday 27 May 2025 | No. 130 / 2025


Bangkok, 27 May 2025 – The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) urges the STRD24DA bondholders to study all available information, exercise their rights at the upcoming bondholders’ meeting, and reach out to the bond issuer or the bondholders’ representative to obtain comprehensive and sufficient details for making an informed voting decision. The bondholders’ meeting will be held on 30 May 2025. 

Wastech Exponential Company Limited (WTX) (formerly named Suntech Recycle & Decarbon Co., Ltd.), the issuer of STRD24DA bond, convened a bondholders’ meeting on 16 May 2025 

but did not meet the quorum requirement under the terms and conditions. Therefore, the company will re-convene the bondholders’ meeting electronically on 30 May 2025 at 14.00 hours to consider the following matters:        

        (1) Granting a waiver from an event of default under the terms and conditions in relation to the company’s failure to pay interest due on 10 March 2025, and approving the settlement of the outstanding interest in four equal installments. This also includes approving the cancellation of the immediate repayment requirement and the cancellation of default interest, as specified in the notice from the bondholders’ representative;   

(2) Adjusting the principal repayment schedule from a partial repayment of 25 percent of the bond value on the issuance date to a full repayment of the outstanding principal on the maturity date;      

        (3) Revising the interest payment schedule from quarterly payments to semi-annual payments;    

        (4) Increasing the bond interest rate from 7.75 percent per year to 7.80 percent per year, effective from 9 June 2025 until the bond maturity date;  

(5) Allowing interest payment to be made in installments at the rate of 3 percent per year. Accordingly, the interest payment at the rate of 4.75 percent per year would be suspended from 9 March 2025 to 9 June 2025, and at the rate of 4.80 percent per year from 9 June 2025 to 9 December 2026. The deferred interest accrued during these periods shall be accumulated and included in the final payment on the maturity date or the date of early redemption (as the case may be);    

        (6) Granting a waiver from an event of default under the terms and conditions in cases where the bond issuer revises the debt repayment conditions and/or engages in debt restructuring negotiations with financial institutions or other creditors, as well as any deferral or adjustment of the debt repayment schedule.    

The SEC requires that the bondholders’ representative analyze the benefits and shortcomings as well as the potential impacts on the bondholders both in cases of approval and decline of approval for the above matters with respective supporting reasons and the opinions of the bondholders’ representative. The bondholders are, therefore, encouraged to thoroughly review the information and exercise their rights to protect their own interests. They should also make necessary inquiries to the bondholders’ representative to obtain comprehensive information before making a voting decision at the bondholders’ e-meeting.     


Remark: Daol Securities (Thailand) Public Company Limited serves as the bondholders’ representative for STRD24DA bond due on 9 December 2026.
