U.S. Concrete's plan of reorganization confirmed by bankruptcy court
By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., July 29 - U.S. Concrete, Inc.'s joint plan of reorganization was confirmed, according to a Thursday filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
In April U.S. Concrete made a pre-packaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing to implement an agreement reached with a substantial majority of its bondholders on the terms of a comprehensive debt restructuring.
The company said previously that the proposed plan of reorganization will reduce its subordinated debt by about $272 million and significantly strengthen its balance sheet.
Under the plan:
• Holders of the company's 8 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2014 will exchange their notes for the equity in the reorganized company;
• Existing shareholders will receive seven-year warrants to acquire 15% of the equity of the reorganized company;
• The company's debtor-in-possession facility will be paid in full in cash;
• General unsecured claims will either be paid in full in cash, be paid in the ordinary course of business or be left otherwise rendered unimpaired; and
• Holders of intercompany interests and intercompany claims will receive no distributions.
U.S. Concrete is a Houston-based cement manufacturer. Its Chapter 11 case number is 10-11407.
