Bondoro Insights: Weekly Docket Update

This Week's Key Filings

FIHPNP LLC (Brightline)

• Case Summary
  • Brightline's holding companies filed for Chapter 11 after ridership and revenue materially lagged the original projections the company borrowed against, interest payments and maturities went unmet at several holding company and non-debtor obligors, and equity-raise and sale processes produced no transaction. The operating company for the Miami-to-Orlando rail system, Brightline Trains Florida LLC, is not a debtor. The Debtors, which carry approximately $2.5 billion of funded debt, seek to use the cases to rebalance their holding company debt obligations and inject additional liquidity into the business. They plan to implement a restructuring support agreement with Assured Guaranty and an ad hoc group of mutual fund bondholders that contemplates approximately $490 million of new long-term exit capital, and seek approval of a $257.7 million senior secured DIP facility to be issued by the non-debtor operating company.
• DIP Terms
  • The Brightline debtors sought interim and final approval of a $257.7 million new-money senior secured note facility to be issued by non-debtor subsidiary Brightline Trains Florida, with $185.2 million available on entry of the interim order. Deutsche Bank National Trust Company serves as administrative and collateral agent. The notes bear 10% PIK interest, carry an 8% PIK commitment premium and a backstop premium, and mature one year from the Sept. 24, 2026 petition date, subject to earlier triggers and extension by the required purchasers. At the debtor level, the facility is secured by BLTF Holdings' reaffirmed pledge of 100% of the operating company's equity, priming the liens securing the not less than $2.413 billion of prepetition BLTF secured obligations. It is also supported by guarantees from the other debtors, each limited to the facility proceeds it receives through intercompany loans. Proceeds used for the affiliate guarantors' case administration costs are capped at $1.5 million per debtor and $5 million in the aggregate.

House Canary New Jersey, Inc.

• Case Summary
  • House Canary filed for Chapter 11 following its default under a secured loan facility of up to $30 million, failed amendment negotiations with prepetition lender and a foreclosure auction of substantially all operating assets scheduled for the petition date. The company seeks to halt that sale and reorganize while preserving operations to prosecute an approximately $175 million trade secrets and fraud verdict against Amrock, backed by a proposed multi-draw DIP facility of up to $15 million.
• DIP Terms
  • House Canary received interim approval of a $15 million new-money DIP facility, with no roll-up, from Condor FundingCo 26, LLC, of which $3 million is available before the Oct. 20 final hearing: a $1 million initial draw and a $2 million additional draw conditioned on a plan term sheet acceptable to the lender in its sole discretion or the filing of an acceptable plan within seven days of the Sept. 22 petition date. The facility carries 10% PIK interest, a 2% upfront fee and a 5% exit fee, matures 60 days after the petition date, and requires plan confirmation and effectiveness within the same 60 days, with its liens ranking junior to the prepetition liens of the debtors' litigation funders and of Structural Capital on their respective collateral.

UPG Enterprises LLC

• Case Summary
  • UPG Enterprises filed for Chapter 11 after a series of 2024 setbacks: the termination of a major automotive contract that caused more than $15 million in losses, the loss of much of its sales infrastructure, and its prior lender's decision to end the relationship. Despite nearly $60 million in support from its owners, liquidity kept tightening. The company plans a Section 363 sale of substantially all of its assets and an orderly wind-down, funded by DIP financing from Firehorse Capital, an affiliate of its owners.
• DIP Terms
  • UPG Enterprises filed a motion seeking interim and final approval of up to $6.1 million in new-money superpriority DIP financing from Firehorse Capital, which also provided prepetition bridge loans with an original principal amount of $5 million. Up to $2 million is available on entry of the interim order, and $4.1 million after entry of the final order. On entry of the final order, the outstanding bridge loans, including accrued interest, will be rolled up into DIP obligations. The facility bears 10% PIK interest and a 4% exit fee on the new-money commitment, has a scheduled maturity of Dec. 18, 2026, and requires entry of the final DIP order and a bidding procedures order by Oct. 21, 2026.
• Bidding Procedures Summary
  • UPG Enterprises filed a motion seeking approval of bidding procedures for a sale of any and all or substantially all of their assets, proposing an Oct. 28 bid deadline, a Nov. 2 auction, a Nov. 5 sale hearing and a Nov. 19 closing outside date. The proposed order would authorize three stalking horse bidders whose prepetition bids aggregate $14.3 million in cash plus the book value of Chicago Steel and Lexington Steel inventory: SteelSummit Holdings at $5.3 million with a $150,000 break-up fee, Mill Steel Company at $4 million plus inventory with a 3% break-up fee, and Alabama Metal Industries Corporation at $5 million with a 3% break-up fee and up to $300,000 in expense reimbursement. Any additional stalking horse must be noticed by Oct. 21, with protections capped at a 3% break-up fee plus reasonable expenses.

Braskem Idesa, S.A.P.I.

• Plan Terms
  • Braskem Idesa's confirmed prepackaged Chapter 11 plan effects a debt-for-equity recapitalization dividing the reorganized equity into thirds on a fully diluted basis, whereby $825 million of senior secured notes claims are equitized into Class A shares held through a newly formed equity SPV, a second third is split between Braskem S.A. for a $71 million new-money cash contribution in Class B shares and holders of DIP claims, and existing shareholders receive the final third in Class B shares, while the unequitized balance of the notes and Inbursa's term loan claims is satisfied in full through exit notes issued by reorganized BI under a consensual plan accepted by every voting class without resort to cramdown.

Camp Mystic, LLC

• Plan Terms
  • Camp Mystic's liquidating plan centers on the sale of substantially all assets of Camp Mystic and Natural Fountains Properties to third-party purchasers not yet identified, with both sales to be approved through the confirmation order. Two plan administrators will then distribute the sale proceeds through four debtor-specific escrow accounts. Wrongful death claimants from the July 4, 2025 flood return to the tort system to liquidate their claims, recovering first from the debtors' insurance policies and then pro rata with general unsecured creditors. Instead of cash, deposit claimants may elect to have their deposits transferred to the purchaser and credited toward future camp sessions if the purchaser continues operating the camp. The estates' causes of action against the Eastland family are preserved rather than released.

Lugano Diamonds & Jewelry Inc.

• Plan Terms
  • Lugano Diamonds & Jewelry's confirmed Chapter 11 plan of liquidation substantively consolidates the debtors and moves their assets into a Delaware statutory liquidation trust, built on a settlement with secured lender and majority owner Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC under which the lender's claims, including a more than $718 million secured claim, are satisfied by a special trust interest taking 34.79% of effective date cash, released reserves and net proceeds of specified assets, 45% of net recoveries on claims against auditor Grant Thornton, 25% of other causes of action and any residual after unsecured creditors are paid in full with interest. General unsecured creditors share the general trust interests, with creditors that contribute their own claims against Grant Thornton splitting 10% of the auditor recoveries left after the lender's share; convenience claims receive 50% in cash, and all equity interests are cancelled.

BioXcel Therapeutics, Inc.

• DIP Terms
  • BioXcel Therapeutics obtained final approval of its $77.25 million multi-draw priming DIP facility from lenders that hold 100% of its prepetition secured debt. The facility carries $19 million of new money, a $9.5 million initial draw funded at closing and an additional draw of up to $9.5 million unlocked by the final order, plus a cashless, dollar-for-dollar roll-up of up to $58.25 million of prepetition debt: $1.25 million of bridge obligations and $28.5 million at closing, and a further $28.5 million on funding of the additional draw. The lenders agreed to waive the administrative priority of the roll-up portion of their superpriority claims, up to the roll-up principal, to the extent plan distributable value falls short of administrative and priority claims.
• Bidding Procedures / APA Summary
  • BioXcel Therapeutics obtained approval of bidding procedures to sell all or substantially all of its assets. The approved procedures designate Teva Pharmaceuticals International GmbH as stalking horse bidder under an asset purchase agreement providing $57.5 million in upfront cash plus up to $67.5 million in contingent milestone consideration, with a bid deadline of Oct. 9, an auction, if necessary, on Oct. 14, and a sale hearing on Oct. 21. The order grants Teva a $1.2 million break-up fee, increasing to $5 million if the FDA approves the pending sNDA for at-home use of IGALMI before the APA is terminated, plus expense reimbursement of up to $0.6 million. It also bars the DIP and prepetition secured parties from credit bidding for so long as the APA has not been terminated and Teva is not in material breach.

FreshRealm, Inc.

• Plan Terms
  • FreshRealm's confirmed Chapter 11 liquidating plan winds down the debtors following their Section 363 asset sales and is built on the court-approved Blue Apron settlement. Under that settlement, $32 million of deferred payments guaranteed by Wonder Group are credited as a $27.2 million deemed paydown of the DIP facility's $18 million of new-money loans and $38 million of roll-up loans. First lien claims are allowed at $35 million and second lien claims at $116.8 million, and both recover from collateral proceeds through the plan waterfall. Unsecured creditors recover through a liquidating trust funded with a $0.5 million Blue Apron contribution and a $1.3 million second lien settlement payment. The trust also holds commercial tort, D&O and avoidance claims, which remain subject to the liens of the DIP new-money and first lien roll-up lenders. Under the committee settlements, the first lien deficiency claim is subordinated until general unsecured claims recover 4% in the aggregate, and the second lien deficiency claim is waived.

And Go Concepts, LLC

• DIP Terms
  • And Go Concepts obtained final approval for a $20 million new-money senior secured superpriority delayed-draw DIP facility from sole lender Twelve Bridge Capital, carrying no roll-up of prepetition debt and split between a $10 million Tranche A drawn on entry of the interim order and a $10 million Tranche B available in up to five $2 million draws only after entry of a sale order and court approval of the bulk sale of 65 leases and related assets, which the debtors agreed to sell to Boersma Bros. for $105 million subject to competing proposals. The first Tranche B draw is further conditioned on certification that projected net sale proceeds equal at least 150% of the DIP obligations that would be outstanding if the full commitment were funded, and the facility is priced at 12% PIK interest plus 5% commitment, 2% funding and 1% exit fees and matures at the earliest of Jan. 31, 2027, three business days after the bulk sale closes and other customary triggers.

Pacifica of the Valley Corporation

• DIP Terms
  • Pacifica of the Valley sought interim approval of a $52.5 million senior secured superpriority multi-draw DIP facility from its prepetition senior lender, Axios Capital Solutions, combining $21 million of new money, advanced in four tranches, with up to $31.5 million of roll-up at 1.5 times each dollar funded; $7 million of new money and $10.5 million of roll-up would be available on an interim basis. The facility carries 12% PIK interest and a 10% commitment fee capped at $2.1 million, and is conditioned on a plan or private sale transferring the hospital to Axios, which must credit bid at least $40 million of DIP obligations and may recover no more than $20 million from the estate.

Hronis, Inc., a California Corporation

• Plan Terms
  • Hronis obtained confirmation of a combined Chapter 11 liquidating plan that follows the sale of substantially all its assets, the majority on the credit bid of prepetition and DIP lender Conterra Agricultural Capital, with Ag Funding SC III LLC, for which Conterra is servicer, as purchaser. Conterra's DIP, Operating Loan and Land Loan claims totaled approximately $176 million as of July 10, 2026, and its stalking horse bid was $110 million plus DIP borrowings. Unsecured creditors, projected to recover less than 5%, share in a liquidating trust funded under the stipulation that resolved the committee's challenge to Conterra's credit bid, which gives them non-insider avoidance and commercial tort claims, a $500,000 initial cash carveout from Conterra and up to $3 million of additional carveout payments, while insider claims went to Conterra.

Uniroyal Holding, Inc.

• Plan Terms
  • Uniroyal joint prearranged Chapter 11 plan effectuates a liquidation centering on a settlement trust that assumes all asbestos personal injury and wrongful death liability, whereby the debtors contribute a $31.5 million minimum trust recovery in cash and transfer their insurance rights and a specified settlement agreement to the trust on the effective date. Class 4 asbestos claimants are the sole voting class, recovering solely through trust distribution procedures backed by an insurance entity injunction, while secured, priority and general unsecured claims ride through unimpaired and paid in full and intercompany claims and equity interests are cancelled ahead of the debtors' dissolution under a plan administrator.

F-Star Socorro, L.P.

• APA Summary
  • F-Star Socorro obtained final approval to sell four properties in El Paso and Socorro, Texas, to prepetition secured lender RC PV Lender I LLC, known in the order as Madison, for a $90 million bulk credit bid under Section 363(k) plus any cash needed to clear senior title encumbrances. Separately, Madison will pay the sellers $858,469.80 for prepetition swept funds and take on the ad valorem taxes. Closing is conditioned on agreed or court-ordered terms for a clawback guaranty on the purchase price and on execution of a shared access easement.

Noble Supply & Logistics, LLC

• Bidding Procedures Summary
  • Noble Supply & Logistics obtained approval of bidding procedures to sell all, substantially all or a portion of its assets, authorizing but not requiring the designation of a stalking horse bidder by Oct. 23 with bid protections capped at 3% of the cash portion of the purchase price, ahead of an Oct. 30 bid deadline, Nov. 4 auction and Nov. 16 sale hearing, with the prepetition ABL and term loan agents permitted to credit bid their secured debt and adequate protection obligations.

Yardbird Group LLC

• DIP Terms
  • Yardbird Group obtained interim approval of a $5.4 million Brightwood-led superpriority priming DIP facility consisting of $1.8 million of new money, $1 million of it available on an interim basis, and up to $3.6 million of cashless roll-up of prepetition term loans, rolled 1:1 under the interim order and stepping up to 2:1 upon entry of the final order. The loans bear interest at Term SOFR (1% floor) plus 12% PIK and mature 75 days after the Sept. 21, 2026 petition date, and milestones require a stalking-horse bid by the DIP lenders and a sale closing within 53 days of filing.

Group obtained final approval of a senior secured superpriority DIP from FHGRF LLC, their prepetition noteholder, comprising a new-money term facility of up to $2.3 million, inclusive of the $1.205 million funded under the interim order, and a revolver sized at the lesser of $4.2 million and the payment-processor holdback amounts remitted to the lender, plus a roll-up converting two dollars of prepetition debt for every new-money dollar drawn, with $2.41 million already rolled up against the interim draw. The loans carry 12% PIK interest and a 1% exit fee, reduced from 2% by the final order, and mature no later than Dec. 31, 2026, the same date by which a Chapter 11 plan must go effective.

SiFi Networks America, LLC

• Plan Terms
  • SiFi Networks America's first amended Chapter 11 plan of liquidation winds down the FiberCity open-access network project manager following its credit-bid sale of substantially all assets to ArcLink Fiber, its prepetition secured noteholder and DIP lender, for $5.85 million consisting of its DIP and prepetition note obligations plus $200,000 in cash. The plan centers on a global settlement among the debtor, the creditors' committee and ArcLink that establishes a liquidation trust, funded with at least $175,000 from the DIP lender plus excluded assets and estate causes of action not sold to ArcLink, as the sole recovery vehicle for approximately $1.3 million of Class 2 general unsecured claims projected to recover 41.2% versus 1.9% in a hypothetical Chapter 7; insider and D&O claims instead stay with the estate for prosecution by the liquidation trustee.
