Historically, Chapter 11 has been used by companies to restructure debtor-creditor relationships of all shapes and sizes. The Bankruptcy Code provides companies with useful tools to achieve such restructuring objectives including the power to shed burdensome contracts and leases, sell valuable contracts and leases, sell company assets free and clear of liens, claims, encumbrances and other interests, restructure debt (consensually or through the Code’s “cram-down” provisions), renegotiate or reject labor contracts, resolve multi-district litigations through global plan settlements, and implement broad liability releases in favor of officers, directors and other parties in interest.
