  • Sales: Justified Deviations Or Just Deviations?
    AN ANALYSIS OF § 363(B) SALES: JUSTIFIED DEVIATIONS OR JUST DEVIATIONS? Ashley Suarez* ABSTRACT The use of 363(b) asset sales as a deviation from the traditional Chapter 11 form is recurrent amongst modern reorganizations. Section 363(b) functions as a quick sale mechanism provided by the Bankruptcy Code, in which a debtor may sell assets, or even entire firms, outside of a reorganization plan. In doing so, such sales, conducted outside of the ordinary course of business are not subject to the procedural requirements set forth by section 1129 of the Code. As a result, 363(b) sales can occur hastily—lacking the procedural hurdles that plan confirmation requires under the Chapter 11 form. The ability to quick-sell estate assets outside the parameters of a reorganization plan has sparked consistent controversy, mainly due to the various agency costs associated with 363(b) sales. As these sales continue to increase in size and frequency amongst modern Chapter 11 cases, it is important to discuss the risks that such agency costs pose to creditors and capital markets. This Comment presents three cases—Enron, Lehman Brothers, and Chrysler—to evidence the rising trend for supplanting traditional reorganization mechanisms in favor of quick sales throughout the early 2000s. This Comment will analyze each case’s incremental deviation from the traditional Chapter 11 form, as well as critique their individual uses of 363(b) sales. This Comment asserts that these cases are significant because they uniquely demonstrate the various risks and benefits yielded by section 363(b). Further, this Comment utilizes these case studies as arguments for when, and in what circumstances, the use of 363(b) sales as a deviation from the traditional Chapter 11 form, are justified.

  • The Fall of Lehman Brothers
    The fall of Lehman Brothers A literary overview of the internal and external factors that lead to the largest bankruptcy in history Name: Christian Carlsson Supervisor: Tomas Sjögren Abstract: The collapse of Lehman Brothers is the largest bankruptcy in history. Their bankruptcy was the result of poor business decisions due to moral hazards in the firm for top executives, as well as poor corporate governance practices. Lehman attempted to withhold information about its actual financial condition to sustain important funding sources. Eventually it could no longer sustain confidence from counterparties and did not have sufficient liquidity to operate.

  • Of Directors of Tfee Mount Sinai Hospital
    ileio Born in Bavaria, Died in new VorK, i, mi. 001 Tn mecory of Mayer Cefotnan. A noble, manly, wide-beloved man! He was not born unto a home of wealth, Nor was he blest with opportunity To train his mind by much of what the schools Could teach. He came from sturdy, simple folk, Who gave as heritage sound health, sound brain And all the virtue of an honest name. At time of life when other youths still lean Upon their father's arm, or pleasure's voice Pursue, he came across the mighty deep To win his fortune in a country strange. Two elder brothers bade him welcome here. The one, alas! soon closed his eyes in sleep That never ends. The other brother walked With him in tread and step so evenly That half a century passed before their march Was broken and disturbed by cruel death. He spurned all arts of trickery and deceit. His word was seal enough. He did not build His fortune on the ruin of other men. With prudent care and self-denying life He slowly added to his well-earned wealth. Nor did his wealth beget false pride or stir The promptings of a vain conceit. He was Unto the very last a man of rare And simplest modesty. His duty as He saw it he did with earnest will and Ever-faithful zeal. Yet spite of duty's Numerous calls and life's engrossing cares, A smile was ever born within his heart That cast its sunny beams on all who came Within the circle of his sunlit life.

  • News Release from Lehman Brothers One William Street New York
    NEWS RELEASE FROM LEHMAN BROTHERS ONE WILLIAM STREET NEW YORK r*C" LEHMAN BROTHERS CELEBRATE CENTENARY Investment Banking Firm Starts New Century With Faith in Future* Lehman Brothers, one of America's leading investment banking firms, today celebrates its 100th anniversary. The centennial is being marked by a 63-page book published by the firm, tracing its development since its founding in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1850» The book emphasizes the part the firm has played in gathering capital for the rapidly growing businesses of the United States and in broadening the ownership of their securities. The firm, under its century-old name of "Lehman Brothers", was founded by three brothers, Henry, Emanuel and Mayer Lehman, who migrated from the village of Rimpar in Bavaria during the middle of the 19th century. At the outset, grocery and dry goods were their stock in trade, but shortly the firm became a coinmodity house, predominately in cotton* With New York becoming the center of the cotton crop financing, the firm in 1858 established a New York office at 119 Liberty Street and Emanuel Lehman came to Manhattan to live* While the blockade of the Confederacy's ports brought the cotton business to a virtual halt, the Governor of Alabama charged Mayer Lehman with the task of persuading the Union authorities to grant permission for some 1500 bales to pass through the lines to be sold in the North for the benefit of Alabama prisoners in the Union prisons, a scheme that proved futile. After the Civil War Lehman Brothers business was resumed at 176 Fulton Street, and moved thence to 106 Water Street, and in 1867 to 153-155 Pearl Street, and again to 40 Exchange Place, the booming center of the cotton trade*.
