Argo Blockchain plc, Re

The restructuring plan is sanctioned under Part 26A Companies Act 2006, as statutory preconditions for cross-class cramdown are satisfied, the allocation of restructuring benefits is fair relative to contributions, no 'blot' or defect exists, and the plan is likely to be recognised internationally. The objections raised by Noteholders and Shareholders do not outweigh the fairness and necessity of the plan.
