1. The Receiver to submit to the court a Creditor List;
2. For the court to determine that the company’s “going concern” value is greater than the “liquidation” value of the company;
3. The Receiver to submit to the court a Rehabilitation Plan;
4. The Rehabilitation Plan to be approved by 2/3 of the unsecured and 3/4 of the secured claims.
This procedure is similar to Chapter 11 in the United States.
We have a few cases that are proving to be very difficult to obtain approval of both secured and unsecured creditors. Often, the Rehab Plan is, only, approved after litigation, prosecutions and/or one creditor gobbling up a good deal of the other debts. This case will be interesting.
For the purpose of full disclosure we are working on a few cases related to the rehabilitation of construction and other companies. My friend over at the Kimchi Law Blog motivated this post.
