Synopsis

L3 Technologies Inc. (NYSE:LLL) operates in three business units: Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance, or “ISR” (a combination of aerospace and sensor systems), Electronic Systems and Communication Systems.

Noble Group Ltd won approval on Monday from a majority of shareholders for a $3.5 billion debt restructuring plan that should ensure the survival of what was once Asia’s biggest commodity trader.

Faced with the prospect of the company’s insolvency, shareholders reluctantly backed a debt-for-equity swap that will leave them with ownership of just 20 percent of the business, while handing majority control to a group of creditors comprised mainly of hedge funds.

“Today, the decision to avoid liquidation rests in your hands,” Noble Chairman Paul Brough told shareholders …

CREDITORS have been left owed more than $3m following the latest Sunshine Coast building industry insolvency.

The Cleary Group Pty Ltd’s ‘collapse’ rivals the 2013 Walton Queensland liquidation in terms of its impact on Sunshine Coast sub contractors who make up the majority of the 50-plus creditors left out of pocket.

Terry John Rose of SV Partners, Brisbane, has been appointed liquidator.

His first report to creditors lists money owed creditors at $3,013,453.34 of which $2,016,453 were trade creditors, $347,000 to the Australian Tax Office and $650,000 to related parties.

The liquidator’s report showed the builder had no assets, no cash at bank and only $45,076 in money owed it.

All secured creditors ha…

One of the documents lawyers are often asked to prepare is a letter of demand.

A letter of demand is usually issued in relation to an outstanding debt and will often warn of legal action unless the debt is paid by a date.

However, the humble letter of demand can also sometimes give rise to unintended consequences for the party issuing the demand. An example is in the context of unfair preference claims in insolvency law.

In simple terms, an unfair preference occurs when a creditor receives a payment (for a debt) from a company who subsequently goes into liquidation giving them an unfair preference over other creditors. If a liquidator of the company who made the payment can prove that the creditor obtained an unfair preference, then it can…

David Lenz, Hills Limited
