LodgeNet Lenders Sue Over New Restructuring Deal

Submitted by webadmin on

A group of lenders to LodgeNet---a hotel Internet and technology provider that filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy last year and sped through the process in two months---are suing the reorganized company and other lenders, saying that a subsequent restructuring is "intended to eviscerate" their rights under the company's original bankruptcy-exit plan, Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review reported today. Although the lawsuit was filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan as part of LodgeNet's original chapter 11 case, the bulk of the complaint involves an agreement that was negotiated months after LodgeNet exited bankruptcy in March 2013. Sonifi Solutions Inc., which is the name LodgeNet now uses, again encountered financial troubles after exiting bankruptcy and at the end of 2013 needed once more to restructure its debt, according to the complaint filed on Wednesday.
