Energy Future Wins Creditor Support for 4.5 Billion Loan

Submitted by webadmin on

Creditors of Energy Future Holdings Corp., the bankrupt Texas power provider, agreed to drop objections to $4.5 billion in loans needed to keep its main operating unit running while under court protection, Bloomberg News reported yesterday. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Sontchi said yesterday that he will approve the loans once he sees the final wording of the terms. The company may still face opposition to a separate proposed package of $5.4 billion in loans that would be used to pay off bondholders of the company’s regulated unit. The judge said he will consider approving those loans at a hearing today.
