Represented investors in connection with restructuring of outstanding debt of Trico Shipping

Represented an ad hoc group of Unisys Corporation bondholders in a successful out-of-court restructuring involving a tender and exchange offer in which the bondholders received new secured notes at favorable pricing terms in exchange for their old unsecured notes.

Represented an ad hoc group of Greektown pre-petition lenders in a bankruptcy from arranging DIP loans to arranging new second lien bonds in an exit facility to usher the casino out of a languishing bankruptcy fight. The new bonds extinguished the pre-petition credit facility and repaid such debt at par plus accrued interest. The new notes are secured by all assets of the casino.
