Jewelry retailer Alex & Ani LLC won court approval of a
bankruptcy plan backed by all stakeholders eligible to vote. The
bankruptcy plan swaps the company's nearly $112 million debt for
equity and provides approximately $4.5 million in exit financing,
Alex & Ani lawyer Allyson Smith said in Wednesday's court
hearing.
Judge Craig Goldblatt of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Wilmington, Del. gave congratulations to the parties for taking a
"moderately complicated case" and finding consensus after the
retailer's June bankruptcy filing.
As part of the final plan, Alex & Ani founder and former CEO
Carolyn Rafaelian agreed to sell her stake in a Bank of America
credit facility split between herself and investor Lion Capital,
while settling disputes between herself, Lion Capital, and Bank of
America.
