On Monday the airline published the full details of a plan that may help it survive the coronavirus outbreak, if creditors and shareholders give it a green light.
“The revised proposal to the bondholders reflects that the company continues to make progress with its other stakeholders,” Norwegian Air said in a statement.
If the swap is not approved, Norwegian has said, the company would run out of cash by mid-May. It has grounded 95% of its fleet, leaving just seven aircraft in operation.
Among the changes, Norwegian Air proposes to convert 50% of the value of two of the bonds into shares, rather than 60% as first proposed, and 80% of the value of a third bond into shares, rather than 85% as first proposed.
Bondholders will vote on the proposals on Thursday. If they approve the terms, the proposal is then put to a vote to shareholders on Monday.
