29 of July, 2021
Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised Arendals Fossekompani, a Norwegian listed company, on the sale of Cogen Energia to MET Group.
The sale of Cogen Energia is part of a strategic move by Arendals Fossekompani to exit all fossil fuel positions. Cogen Energia is recognised as a major player in the Spanish cogeneration market. Cogen Energia’s cogeneration plants use waste heat from gas-fired electricity production to generate steam for nearby industrial partners.
The GA_P team consisted of: David González, Ignacio de la Fuente and Miguel Azpeitia, partner, associate and trainee, respectively, from the Corporate area, and Luis Gil, of counsel from the Public Law area.

A first ranking mortgage does not prevent a creditor from accelerating loan maturity due to debtor insolvency
If the creditor has a secured claim (even if the debt is covered by the "value of the security", i.e. the claim is in the money), the debtor cannot avoid the effects of the to-term forfeiture by appealing to the existence of that security because the guarantee referred to in Article 1129(1) of the Civil Code (avoiding to-term forfeiture) must then be another additional guarantee.

La existencia de una hipoteca de primer rango no impide que el acreedor pueda declarar el vencimiento anticipado del plazo por insolvencia sobrevenida del deudor
Si el acreedor goza de una garantía real para la seguridad de su crédito (incluso si la deuda está cubierta por el «valor de la garantía», es decir, que el crédito está in the money), el deudor no puede evitar los efectos de la pérdida del plazo apelando a la existencia de aquella garantía real porque la garantía a que se refiere el artículo 1129.1.º del Código Civil (evitadora de la pérdida del plazo) deberá ser entonces otra garantía suplementaria.

A good ruling on financial assistance: collateral given to secure third-party borrowings is not invalid
This latest Supreme Court ruling on the prohibition of financial assistance in the purchase of shares in the assisting company (assisting as ‘borrower for third party debt’) is to be praised, erasing the bad taste left by the reading of the immediate precedent (Supreme Court Judgment of 20 April 2023, Ezentis) which held an agreement to underwrite the value of the shares sold by the company invalid.
