NY! 8534090v.6 PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 1. From the start of these cases, the question ofYucaipa's actions and allegations of its purported control over the Debtors has loomed large over these proceedings. Indeed, even before the initiation of these cases, Yucaipa's actions in purporting to acquire a majority of the outstanding debt issued pursuant to the First Lien Credit Facilitj and the Second Lien Credit Facility, 3 and Yucaipa's actions thereafter have, to the Committee's knowledge, generated four separate lawsuits in three different jurisdictions. All of those lawsuits, three of which included not only Yucaipa as a party but also the Debtors, involved allegations that Yucaipa's purported acquisition of the majority of the outstanding debt issued under the First Lien Credit Facility was unlawful or impermissible. 2. On October 18, 2012, the Stipulation Among the Debtors, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors Regarding Postpetition Secured DIP Financing, Credit Bidding Under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Certain Administrative Matters was filed, 4 pursuant to which, among other things, Yucaipa agreed to "provide the Committee with any documents or other information reasonably requested by the Committee in its evaluation of the Yucaipa Credit Bid (subject to attorney-client privilege and work product)" and to not object to the Committee bringing a Rule 2004 motion seeking 2 References to the "First Lien Credit Facility" are to that certain Amended and Restated First Lien Secured Super- Priority Debtor In Possession and Exit Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 30, 2007 and amended and restated as of May 15, 2007 by and among Allied Holdings, Inc., Allied Systems, Ltd. (L.P.), Certain Subsidiaries of Allied Holdings, Inc. and Allied Systems Ltd. (L.P.), Various Lenders, Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P., and The CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc. 3 References to the "Second Lien Credit Facility" are to that certain Second Lien Secured Super-Priority Debtor in Possession and Exit Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of May 15, 2007 by and among Allied Holdings, Inc., Allied Systems, Ltd. (L.P.), Certain Subsidiaries of Allied Holdings, Inc. and Allied Systems, Ltd. (L.P.), Various Lenders, and Goldman Sachs Credit Partners. 4 As Exhibit A to the Motion for an Order Pursuant to Section 105 (a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019 Approving Stipulation Among the Debtors, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors Regarding Postpetition Secured DIP Financing, Credit Bidding Under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Certain Administrative Matters (the "Motion to Approve Stipulation") (D.I. 539). NY! 8534090v.6 2 discovery from Com Vest in the event that Com Vest does not consent to Yucaipa providing the Loan Purchase Agreement to the Committee. 3. In light of a potential Yucaipa Credit Bid, 5 and consistent with its statutory obligation to investigate whether causes of action that might benefit the estate exist, the Committee has been endeavoring to conduct an investigation of whether Yucaipa's purported acquisition of the majority of the First Lien Credit Facility, and its related alleged ascension to the status of the "Requisite Lender" under the First Lien Credit Facility, was proper and whether those actions gave rise to any potential causes of action or other issues in connection with the Yucaipa Credit Bid. 4. Because of the existence of the pre-petition lawsuits, and the likelihood that such lawsuits had already revealed many of the facts that would be relevant to the evaluation of potential issues relating to the Yucaipa Credit Bid, the Committee has focused its investigation of the Yucaipa Credit Bid primarily on documents and materials from the pre-petition lawsuits. In particular, the Committee requested documents, including deposition transcripts, exhibits and pleadings, that had been filed or served in an action previously pending in the Superior Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia, captioned Allied Systems Holdings, Inc., et al. v. The CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc., No. 2009-CV-177574 (the "CIT Georgia Litigation"), involving the Debtors and Yucaipa. 5. While the Debtors have been largely forthcoming in producing materials to the Committee, the Committee needs discovery from Yucaipa, as well. Yesterday, Yucaipa agreed to produce the transcripts of depositions of Yucaipa witnesses, including at least one deposition of a member of the Debtors' Board of Directors, taken in the CIT Georgia Litigation, as well as some, but not all, of the exhibits marked at those depositions. 5 As defined in the Motion to Approve Stipulation. NYl 8534090v.6 3 6. The primary category of documents that Yucaipa has not agreed to produce relate to the Loan Purchase Agreement between Yucaipa and Com Vest Investment Partners III, L.P. and/or Com Vest III Partners, LLC ("Com Vest") and/or any Com Vest-affiliated entity ("Loan Purchase Agreement"). Yucaipa has informed the Committee that it is a party to a non- disclosure agreement with Com Vest and that Com Vest has refused to consent under the non- disclosure agreement to the production of the Loan Purchase Agreement or any related exhibits marked at the depositions referenced above. 7. Upon information and belief, the Loan Purchase Agreement, including all of its terms and conditions, and communications relating to the Loan Purchase Agreement are significant to the Committee's investigation of the Yucaipa Credit Bid. Indeed, in the pre- petition lawsuits brought against Yucaipa, there have public and specific allegations made concerning the terms of the alleged acquisition under the Loan Purchase Agreement that may be highly relevant to whether or not potential issues relating to the Yucaipa Credit Bid exist. 8. By this Motion, the Committee requests authority, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2004, to issue Rule 2004 subpoenas to Yucaipa to obtain information relevant and required for the Committee's investigation of the Yucaipa Credit Bid. BACKGROUND 9. On May 17, 2012 (the "Petition Date"), involuntary petitions were filed by Black Diamond CLO 2005-1 Ltd., BDCM Opportunity Fund II, LP and Spectrum Investment Partners, L.P. (collectively, the "Petitioning Creditors"), prepetition lenders (the "First Lien Lenders") to the Debtors against Allied and its subsidiary Systems under chapter 11 oftitle 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in this Bankruptcy Court (the "Court"). See Statement of Petitioning Creditors in Support of the Involuntary Chapter 11 Petitions Filed Against Allied NY! 8534090v.6 4 Systems Holdings, Inc. and Allied Systems, Ltd. (L.P.) [Docket No.9] ("Petitioning Creditors Statement"). 10. On June 10, 2012 (the "Consent Date"), the remaining Debtors filed voluntary petitions in this Court, and, in connection therewith, Allied and Systems consented to the involuntary petitions filed against them. The chapter 11 cases commenced thereby are, collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases." 11. The Debtors have continued in possession of their property and have continued to operate and manage their businesses as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 ofthe Bankruptcy Code. On June 11, the Court entered an order jointly administering the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to Rule 1 0 15(b) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the "Bankruptcy Rules") for procedural purposes only. On June 19, 2012, the Office of the United States Trustee (the "U.S. Trustee") appointed the Committee. 12. On October 18,2012, Allied filed an adversary proceeding complaint (the "Adversary Proceeding") seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and naming the Committee as a defendant. The Committee will file a timely answer in the Adversary Proceeding. JURISDICTION AND STATUTORY PREDICATES 13. This Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157 and 1334. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(2). The statutory predicates for the relief requested herein are 105(a) ofthe Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2004 and Local Rule 2004-1. NYl 8534090v.6 5 RELIEF REQUESTED 14. The Committee seeks to obtain the documents and other information set forth in the Request attached as Exhibit A hereto (the "Requested Information") under Bankruptcy Rule 2004 on the basis that this information relates to the acts, conduct, assets, liabilities and financial condition of the Debtor and which may affect the administration of the Debtor's estate. BASIS FOR RELIEF REQUESTED 15. Bankruptcy Rule 2004 permits a "party in interest" to obtain discovery of information relating to the "acts, conduct, or property or to the liabilities or financial condition of the debtor, or to any matter which may affect the administration of the debtor's estate." Fed. R. Bankr. P. 2004(b). 16. The scope of permitted discovery under Rule 2004 "is 'unfettered and broad."' In re Washington Mutual, Inc., 408 B.R. 45, 49 (Bank. D. Del. 2009) (quoting In re Bennett Funding Group, Inc., 203 B.R. 24,28 (Bank. N.D.N.Y. 1996)). "Legitimate goals of Rule 2004 examinations include 'discovering assets, examining transactions, and determining whether wrongdoing has occurred."' !d. at 50 (quoting In re Enron Corp., 281 B.R. 836, 840 (Bank. S.D.N.Y. 2002)). 17. Bankruptcy courts have held that Rule 2004 motions "'are to be decided by balancing the competing interests of the parties, weighing the relevance and necessity for the information sought by the [movant] against the extent of the inconvenience and intrusion to the witness."' In re Pub. Serv. Co. ofNH, 91 B.R. 198, 199 (Bankr. D.N.H. 1988) (citation omitted). In making this determination, courts consider the purpose of the request as well as the degree of alleged intrusiveness. See In re Drexel Burnham Lambert Group, 123 B.R. 702, 712 NY! 8534090v.6 6 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1991) (discussing evolution and purpose of Rule 2004 and granting Rule 2004 discovery motion where "requested purpose" was for "claims amendment and claims litigation"). 18. As can be seen from the attached Exhibit A, the discovery requested by the Committee seeks only documents and information relevant to its investigation and its examinations of relevant transactions to determine if potential claims arising from Yucaipa's purported acquisition of a majority of the First Lien Credit Facility debt and/or its alleged ascension to the status of the "Requisite Lender" under the First Lien Credit Facility exist. The requested information will enable the Committee to determine whether it has any causes of action in connection with the Yucaipa Credit Bid. As such, the requested discovery is relevant and necessary and falls squarely within the broad scope of Bankruptcy Rule 2004. 6 19. No previous motion for the relief sought herein has been made to this or any other court. 6 In making this motion under Rule 2004, the Committee does not intend to, and does not, limit or define the scope of discovery it may seek in cotmection with the adversary proceeding recently filed by the Debtors captioned Allied Systems Holdings, Inc. v. American Money Management Corp., et al., 12ap50947 (CSS). Indeed, as it is a named defendant in that proceeding, the Committee has all rights to seek discovery from the Plaintiff, the Debtors, and co- defendants, as is permitted under the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. NY! 8534090v.6 7 NOTICE 20. The Committee has provided notice of this Motion to: (i) the U.S. Trustee; (ii) counsel for the agent for the Debtors' debtor-in-possession lenders; (iii) counsel for the Debtors; (iv) counsel for CIT, as resigning agent under the Debtors' First Lien Credit Facility, (v) counsel for the Petitioning Creditors; (vi) counsel for The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Debtors' second lien credit agreement; (vii) counsel for Com Vest Investment Partners III, L.P. and Com Vest III Partners, LLC; and (vii) all other persons requesting notices pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002. In light of the nature of the relief requested, the Committee respectfully submits that no further notice is necessary. CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL RULE 2004-1 21. Counsel for the Committee certifies that the Committee has complied with Local Rule 2004-1. Undersigned counsel has communicated with Yucaipa's counsel regarding production of the requested information and informed Yucaipa's counsel that the Committee intended to file this Motion. NY! 8534090v.6 8 CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the Committee respectfully requests entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, granting the relief requested herein, and such other and further relief as is just.
