(FILES) – A file photo taken on March 31, 2012 shows Disney character Mickey posing in front of the Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland park as part of the 20th birthday celebrations of the park, in Chessy, near Marne-la-Vallee, outside Paris. Euro Disney, which runs Disneyland Paris, a top European tourist attraction, announced on October 6, 2014 it was receiving a one-billion-euro refinancing package to overcome a crisis after a sharp fall in visitor numbers and spending. Shares in the company plunged by nearly 12.0 percent in initial trading in Paris. The plan includes a cash infusion of 420 million euros ($526 million) by the parent company, US-based Walt Disney Co, and a conversion of 600 million euros of debt owed to Walt Disney into equity, the company said in a statement.
