Event Synopsis:
The New York appellate court decision in GSO Coastline Credit Partners v. Global A&T Electronics interpreted Section 316(b) of the Trust Indenture Act (TIA) as prohibiting issuers to unilaterally amend an indenture and an intercreditor agreement without the debtholder's approval. The decision raised numerous issues and uncertainties that counsel and their clients must carefully consider to avoid potential risks and pitfalls.
This course offers a discussion of the amendments to indentures and intercreditor agreements and the ability of issuers to cure ambiguities without debtholder consent. The panel will analyze Section 316(b) of the TIA, and the impact of the GSO v. Global A&T Electronics decision to debt restructurings and indenture amendments.
In a two-hour LIVE Webcast, the speakers will discuss:
- A Brief Overview of Section 316(b)
- Applicability of Section 316(b)
- Ambiguity vs. Substantive Amendments
- Interpretation of Intercreditor Agreement Provisions
- Impact of Intercreditor Agreements to Indenture Amendments
- Key Takeaways from GSO v. Global A&T Electronics
