The aim is therefore to proceed with a capital reduction to €0, followed by “underwriting and realization of the capital amount” of €2.5 million which will be carried out “always prior to the approval of this insolvency plan” by the Menzies family. .

The plan states that Menzies “will own 25,000,000 shares, equivalent to 50.01% of the share capital; TAP, SA will own 24,836,519 shares, equivalent to 49.9% of the share capital.”
