November 9, 2018 – Nine West Holdings filed a First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization [Docket No. 836] and a related revised Disclosure Statement [Docket No. 837]. The revised Disclosure Statement notes, “As part of the continued efforts to develop consensus around a viable chapter 11 plan, the Debtors have entered into Bankruptcy Court ordered mediation with all parties in interest, including, among others, the UCC and certain Noteholders, Secured Term Loan Lenders, and Unsecured Term Loan Lenders. The strong fiduciary out in the Debtors’ agreement supporting this proposed Plan allows the Debtors to consider all options. should an improved deal construct emerge as a result of mediation or otherwise, and the mediation order [Docket No. 831] (the ‘Mediation Order’) allows parties to participate in mediation without violating or breaching the terms of the A&R RSA (as defined herein). The Plan is supported by more than 85 percent of the Secured Term Loan Lenders and more than 80 percent of the Unsecured Term Loan Lenders. The parties supporting the proposed Plan include the Debtors’ DIP Lenders, the Secured and Unsecured Term Loan Agents, the Secured Lender Group, the Crossover Group, and Brigade (each as defined herein). The proposed Plan maximizes creditor recoveries, meaningfully reduces the Debtors’ aggregate funded debt (by more than $900 million over their funded debt obligations as of the commencement of these chapter 11 cases), and best positions the Debtors for future success.”
The Court scheduled a November 13, 2018 hearing on the Disclosure Statement.
