U.S. District Court Affirms Chapter 11 Reorganization Plan of CIRCOR’s Leslie Controls Subsidiary
BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CIRCOR International, Inc. (NYSE: CIR) today announced that the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware has affirmed the U.S. Bankruptcy Court’s confirmation of the amended pre-negotiated Chapter 11 reorganization plan filed by its wholly owned subsidiary, Leslie Controls, Inc. CIRCOR also announced that, in connection with the Bankruptcy and District Court review and approval, all appeals previously lodged by certain of Leslie’s insurers have been resolved, and the amended plan was unopposed.
“This is a great day for Leslie Controls and CIRCOR”
“This is a great day for Leslie Controls and CIRCOR,” said CIRCOR Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Higgins. “With District Court affirmation of Leslie’s reorganization plan and resolution of all pending appeals, we have now achieved the last major milestones in our effort to permanently resolve Leslie’s asbestos liability. We are now completing the formalities necessary for Leslie to legally emerge from bankruptcy. Leslie is a strong business, key to our strategy in the global power markets and a critical supplier to the U.S. Navy.”
Leslie and CIRCOR will fund the Section 524(g) asbestos trust established under the reorganization plan once various closing mechanics are satisfied and the plan becomes effective, whereupon Leslie will emerge from Chapter 11 protection. Leslie and CIRCOR expect these steps to be completed within the next 60 days.
