A Gunmaker Gets Aggressive

posted by Stephen Lubben

TrackdownOver at Dealb%k, I have a new column up about Colt's rather aggressive dual-track exchange offer and prepack.

In short, it involves very little creditor input. Perhaps part of a larger trend of aggressive use of chapter 11 by private equity backed debtors?

And no, I have no idea if Robert Culp is holding a Colt firearm that that picture ... but he looks kind of cool, doesn't he?

Bankr-L

  • As a public service, the University of Illinois College of Law operates Bankr-L, an e-mail list on which bankruptcy professionals can exchange information. Bankr-L is administered by one of the Credit Slips bloggers, Professor Robert M. Lawless of the University of Illinois. Although Bankr-L is a free service, membership is limited only to persons with a professional connection to the bankruptcy field (e.g., lawyer, accountant, academic, judge). To request a subscription on Bankr-L, click here to visit the page for the list and then click on the link for "Subscribe." After completing the information there, please also send an e-mail to Professor Lawless (rlawless@illinois.edu) with a short description of your professional connection to bankruptcy. A link to a URL with a professional bio or other identifying information would be great.
