Bankruptcy Financing in
the United States and Abroad
James H.M. Sprayregen, P.C.
Kirkland & Ellis LLP
Discussion Outline
• Overview of Bankruptcy Financing in the
United States
• Impacts of the Global Credit Crisis on
Bankruptcy Financing in the United States
• Current Lending Landscape in U.S.
• Brief Survey of Foreign Insolvency Laws
and Approach to Bankruptcy Financing
• Conclusions and 2009 Outlook
• Questions and Additional Information
Brief Overview of U.S. Bankruptcy Law
and Debtor-in-Possession Financing
1
U.S. Bankruptcy Basics
• Fundamental goal of U.S. bankruptcy
laws is to give debtors a “fresh start”
• Bankruptcy Code provides for 6 types of
bankruptcy cases traditionally given the
names of the chapters that describe them
• Today’s discussion focuses on chapter 11
bankruptcy cases (reorganization cases)
Brief Overview of Chapter 11
• “Chapter 11” refers to chapter 11 of title 11 of
the United States Code
– “title 11” is generally referred to as the
“Bankruptcy Code”
• Chapter 11 is a court supervised
restructuring of a company’s business and
financial obligations
– permits management to remain in control or “in
possession” of the company’s property and
business operations
– the debtor will typically act as his own trustee,
called a “debtor in possession,” and will remain in
possession of all estate property
Life Cycle of a Distressed Business
2
Bankruptcy Financing Generally
• Debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing is the
lifeblood that keeps companies running
during the bankruptcy case
– available only to companies in chapter 11
– proceeds generally used to fund post-filing
obligations and ongoing operating needs
– also allows companies to put off existing debts
while attempting to raise capital and
restructure business operations
• Although DIP financing is pricier and more
constrained than traditional commercial
financing, it is valued for its availability to
limping companies
DIP Financing Structures
DIP Lending: The Good Old Days
• DIP lending historically seen as an attractive
investment:
– good position in capital structure
– superpriority claim status
– DIP loan either paid in cash upon exit or
rolled-up into exit financing facility
• Traditionally, primary lenders provided DIP
financing to protect original loan value
• Competition often led to reverse bidding war
with lower rates (e.g. LIBOR plus 250 bps)
and longer terms (e.g. 12 - 18 months)
3
The Global Credit Crisis and Impact on
U.S. Markets and Bankruptcy Financing
Enter the Global Credit Crisis
• Financial markets and institutions are facing
unprecedented structural change
– began as systematic liquidity crisis in financial
sector
– deteriorated into global crisis of market confidence
regarding ability of large financial institutions to
meet obligations and remain solvent
The Road to Recession
• Wall Street:
– bursting housing bubble helped burst credit
bubble,which froze global debt markets
– banks stuck with large soured mortgage portfolios
and highly-leveraged loans
– battered by multi-billion dollar write-downs and
plummeting stock prices, banks cut back on
lending in effort to shore up cash reserves
• Main Street:
– eventually, effects of credit crisis spilled over from
Wall Street into Main Street
– companies that relied heavily on short-term loans
found themselves (1) with severe liquidity issues
and (2) unable to meet working capital needs
4
Impact on U.S. Financial Markets
• Its official: the U.S. has been in a recession
since December 2007
– credit crisis exacerbated by economic downturn
– growth slowed across virtually all industries
• Implosion of several financial institutions:
– Lehman, Bear Sterns, Washington Mutual, AIG
• U.S. Government Intervention
– capital injection met with mixed results
– efforts do not seem to have fundamentally
strengthened precarious financial system
– immediate economic relief is not in sight
– involvement in U.S. automobile industry seems
inevitable but level of bail-out is unknown
Effect on U.S. Bankruptcy System
• Surge in commercial filings:
– February 2009 filings up 47% from 2008 levels
• Closure of DIP market over past year due to:
–
–
–
–
–
severely constricted credit markets
plummeting asset values
lack of liquidity in the market
heightened risk of reorganization failure
retreat of nervous lenders
• Increased filings + limited DIP financing=
– overly-complicated bankruptcy cases and
– more companies abandoning rehabilitation in
favor of sale process (best case) or fire sale
liquidation under a chapter 7
Reorganizing in Tough Markets
• Lenders generally more cautious about
extending credit amidst financial turmoil
• Today’s marketplace also is more
complicated now than 10 years ago
– complex deal structures due to increase in #
lenders investing throughout capital structure
– covenant light second lien loan complications
– amount of distressed debt on balance sheets
makes it harder for any one firm to end up
with real control upon emergence
5
Current DIP Financing Environment
• DIP lenders becoming more aggressive,
demanding greater security for loans that:
–
–
–
–
are more expensive (e.g. LIBOR + 600 bps)
contain tighter financial covenants
provide for shorter terms (e.g. 2 - 6 months)
include increasingly restrictive operational and
control provisions
• Companies and courts more willing to accept DIP
financing containing restrictive covenants
• Non-traditional lenders becoming DIP lenders to
take advantage of high interests rates
• Unique opportunities for private equity firms to
employ “loan to own” strategies
Back From the Dead:
Recent DIP Financings
• Despite widely-publicized “frozen” credit
markets, a handful of recent deals are
starting to revive the market
– “defensive” or “self-help” DIP loans (MM):
• Aleris ($1.5), Lyondell Basell ($8,105), Constar
($75), Propex $60), Pilgrim’s Pride ($450),
Tronox ($125), WCI ($150)
– “traditional” DIP loans (MM):
• Smurfit Stone Container ($750)
– “bridge-to-sale” DIP loans (MM):
• Chesapeake ($30), Greatwide Logistics ($74),
Circuit City ($1,1), Linens N Things ($700)
• By no means a robust market, but a market is
opening up nonetheless
Brief Summary of Foreign Insolvency
Laws and Bankruptcy Financing

Survey of Foreign Insolvency Laws
Country
Terms and/or Security Interest Country
Australia
Liquidation. A liquidator can obtain secured and unsecured credit as far
as is necessary for the beneficial disposal or winding-up of the company.
Priority over ordinary unsecured creditors but only in
respect of the new funds and to the value of the security.
China
England
France
Hong Kong
Priority
Administration. An administrator is able to raise loans on security over
company assets to carry on the business of the company.
Priority given to this credit, as an expense of the
administration, ranks higher than ordinary unsecured
creditors.
Bankruptcy administrator may borrow and give security over debtor’s
assets, subject to supervision by creditors’ committee and court.
There is no stipulation for special priority for those claims.
Liquidation. A liquidator has the power to raise any money required on
secured and unsecured basis.
Priority over ordinary unsecured creditors as an expense of
the liquidation but only in respect of the new funds.
Administration. An administrator has the power to raise or borrow money
on secured and unsecured basis.
Priority over ordinary unsecured creditors as an expense of
the administration but only in respect of the new funds.
A debtor may obtain secured or unsecured loans or credit.
The priority given to such loan or credit depends on
whether a liquidation or a reorganization, through a sale or
a continuation plan, is ordered by the court. Generally,
creditors who extend post-filing credit are granted
preferential rights over pre-filing creditors (with certain
employee-related exceptions) subordinate to court and
other administrative costs.
Liquidation. A liquidator in a winding-up by the court has the power to
raise any money required on secured and unsecured basis, subject to
the control of the court
The loans obtained after commencement of a winding-up
do not per se enjoy ‘super’ priority over other debts of the
company.
Reorganization. Currently there is no arrangement whereby loans made
during a reorganization would be repaid in priority to other lenders.
Proposed reorganization legislation, however, would allow
for the creation of “super-priority” debt.
Japan
Liquidation. A trustee in bankruptcy may borrow money on behalf of the
debtor only if it is necessary for the preservation and management of the
debtor’s assets.
Reorganization. A debtor or an administrator can borrow money or
provide security to a creditor to continue the debtor’s business, subject to
court approval.
Not clear.
Russia
Insolvent companies may obtain loans or credits at any stage of
bankruptcy proceedings on secured and unsecured basis, subject to the
consent of the bankruptcy manager or the creditors’ committee.
Any claims which arise from such loans or credits outrank
all other claims.
Priority over general unsecured claims.
Conclusions and Questions
A Brave New Illiquid World
• New issue markets remain challenging for the
majority of companies
• Minimal third-party financing has been available
for companies seeking to recapitalize, gain
access to incremental liquidity or refinance
pending maturities
• Increasing liquidity challenges and degenerating
economic outlook has amplified need for DIP
financing
7
Outlook for 2009
• Like the latter part of 2008, 2009 is expected
to be a challenging year
–
–
–
–
unemployment levels continue to rise
financial institutions are deleveraging
credit markets remain tight
starting to see collapse of industries
• Does not mean no upside:
– for survivors of 2008 financial hurricane, 2009
could be a year of unparalleled opportunities
– shake-out opportunities in in certain industries
– distressed debt market offers interesting
alternatives to traditional financing
