LightSquared Inc. and its various creditors are in talks to devise a consensual plan to restructure the wireless company's assets and end its bankruptcy, Reuters reported on Friday. LightSquared, owned by Phil Falcone's Harbinger Capital Partners, is trying to bridge disagreements among proponents of three separate reorganization proposals currently on the table, according to Paul Basta, a lawyer for a special committee overseeing the company's restructuring. The talks so far do not include representatives for Dish Network Corp Chairman Charles Ergen, whose debt holdings make him LightSquared's largest single creditor. LightSquared has accused Ergen of surreptitiously buying the debt to effect a takeover of LightSquared by Dish, a key competitor. A trial on that dispute remains ongoing.
