Overview and Analysis of Select Provisions of the ABI Chapter 11 Reform Commission Final Report and Recommendations

Part Three of Three

Earlier this year, Orrick’s Restructuring team began a three-part look at the American Bankruptcy Institute’s Chapter 11 Reform Report. In part one we looked at issues related to confirmation, valuation, financing and asset sales. Last month, in part two, we focused on modifications to the Bankruptcy Code’s “safe harbors” for derivatives and other complex financial transactions. This final part focuses on a variety of critical issues:  third party releases, rejection of collective bargaining agreements, professional compensation issues and treatment of executory contracts in bankruptcy.
