This experienced panel discusses in detail the many issues that courts, litigants, and lenders face with respect to credit bids in bankruptcy, beyond how courts have applied the ability to limit a credit bid "for cause."  This presentation will provide a helpful roadmap of the issues that creditors' committees should consider in challenging proposed credit bid transactions, and how a well-advised lender can properly structure a credit bid to maximize chances for approval in a bankruptcy case.  The panel will further discuss the alternatives outside of bankruptcy that lenders may use to acquire a borrower's company or collateral outside of bankruptcy, and when such alternatives may be more efficient than a section 363 sale in bankruptcy.
