Description:

Presented by ABI's Labor and Employment Committee, this webinar will address current employee- and labor-related issues in chapter 11 and out-of-court restructurings, including: (a) whether private-equity sponsors may be subject to pension fund withdrawal liability under ERISA in light of the First Circuit’s Sun Capital decision; (b) whether pension plan withdrawal liability is entitled to administrative claim status; and (c) the status of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation’s moratorium on 4062(e) enforcement. Attorneys and other restructuring professionals who deal with the PBGC will learn about current developments in this dynamic and changing area of law, which plays an important role in many reorganizations today.
