The Abu Dhabi government-controlled company announced it will seek shareholders’ approval on April 29 at an extraordinary general meeting, to issue the bonds that will be converted at Dh2.5 a share.

Proceeds from the bond sale will be used for general “corporate purposes,” the company said on Sunday, in a regulatory filing to the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange.

IPIC, the Abu Dhabi government-owned energy investor, owns a 71 per cent stake in Aabar after converting Dh6.68 billion of bonds on April 7 last year, when it excercised its right to convert all mandatory convertible bonds into 2.228 billion new ordinary shares.
