Paladin Energy has made a proposal to Électricité de France.

Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN, TSX:PDN) has made a proposal to Électricité de France (EdF) regarding EdF’s US$200 million pre-payment under the 2012 long term off-take contract.

The company has made a proposal to EdF, which would see it share security over Paladin’s assets with Paladin’s bondholders.

If EdF is to accept this proposal, Paladin expects to receive the outstanding payment under the terms of the off-take contract.

Should EdF not accept the proposal, the matter will proceed to independent expert valuation in accordance with the terms of the off-take contract.

The independent expert valuation is to ensure that EdF has sufficient security for its pre-payment.
