Remedies / DIP Termination Events

- Subject to the Carve-Out, after a five (5) calendar-day Remedies Notice Period (or such later time as the Court may order), the automatic stay is deemed lifted as to the Prepetition Collateral, Cash Collateral, and DIP Collateral, and the Secured Parties may exercise remedies (including set-off and foreclosure); the Debtors may cure a curable Event of Default during the Remedies Notice Period
- During the Remedies Notice Period (prior to the Emergency Default Hearing), the Debtors may use Cash Collateral only for expenses (a) necessary to pay accrued and unpaid wages through the notice date, (b) necessary to preserve going-concern value (not to exceed the Approved DIP Budget absent consent), or (c) necessary to contest in good faith whether a DIP Termination Event occurred
Waivers
- Subject to entry of the Final Order:
- Section 506(c): all rights to surcharge the interests of the Prepetition Secured Parties in any Prepetition Collateral or Collateral are finally and irrevocably waived
