  • the issuer also promises, pursuant to the financial instrument, to repay the principal upon predetermined conditions and according to a predetermined term.
  • the term may be fixed; the instrument may instead permit the issuer to redeem the instrument before the end of the term under specified circumstances.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un instrument de dette convertible par fonds de réserve contenant une disposition selon laquelle la conversion n'est autorisée que si certains fonds de réserve importants s'avèrent suffisants. A titre d'exemple, on peut ajouter une disposition n'autorisant la conversion que si le prix des obligations de l'émetteur atteint une certaine somme, nettement supérieure au prix de conversion. Ce prix de déclenchement de la conversion de fonds de réserve peut être plus élevé que le prix de conversion, à savoir 110 % ou 120 %. L'instrument de dette peut être un bon-coupon zéro négociable sur le long terme et on peut inclure une disposition selon laquelle le nombre d'instruments sous-jacents émissibles ou livrables lors d'opérations de conversion ou d'échange est réglé dans certaines circonstances (p.ex. fusion, acquisition ou quotas). A cet effet, on utilise des procédés et des systèmes correspondants en vue d'offrir de tels instruments financiers.
