Jurisdiction 1. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1334. This

matter is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(2). 2. 3. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 361(1) and 363(b)

of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101-1330 (the Bankruptcy Code) and Rule 9019(a) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the Bankruptcy Rules). Background 4. On May 17, 2005 (the Petition Date), the Debtors filed their voluntary petitions

for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are operating their businesses and managing their properties as Debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in these cases. On the Petition Date, the Court entered an order jointly administering these cases pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015(b). 5. On May 24, 2005, the United States trustee appointed an official committee of

unsecured creditors pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (the Committee). 6. The Debtors and their non-Debtor affiliates are leading global suppliers of

automotive components, systems and modules to all of the worlds largest vehicle manufacturers, including DaimlerChrysler AG, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Honda Motor Company, Inc., Nissan Motor Company Unlimited, Porsche Cars GB, Renault Crateur DAutomobiles, Toyota SA and Volkswagen AG. The Purchase Agreements 7. On November 11, 2004, the Debtors entered into a purchase agreement with

Mayer (the First Contract), pursuant to which Mayer agreed to sell to the Debtors two high2
K&E 10811762.7

speed Tricot compound needle warp knitting machines and related equipment for a total purchase price of $373,388.00. Before the Petition Date, the Debtors paid $174,247.74 to Mayer pursuant to the terms of the First Contract. 8. On November 11, 2004, the Debtors entered into a second purchase agreement

with Mayer (the Second Contract, and with the First Contract, the Contracts), pursuant to which Mayer agreed to sell to the Debtors fourteen high-speed Tricot compound needle warp knitting machines and related equipment for a total purchase price of $2,304,410.00. Before the Petition Date, the Debtors paid $766,370.00 to Mayer pursuant to the terms of the Second Contract. 9. Mayer alleges that it holds valid, perfected purchase money security interests in

the equipment it sold to the Debtors under the Contracts (the Collateral). 10. After the Petition Date, Mayer notified the Debtors that it demands adequate

protection to protect its alleged interest in the Collateral from decreasing in value on account of the Debtors continued use of the Collateral pursuant to section 361 of the Bankruptcy Code. 11. After an arms-length negotiation, the Debtors and Mayer have entered into the

stipulation attached hereto as Exhibit B (the Stipulation), pursuant to which, among other things, the Debtors agree to pay Mayer six monthly payments (the Payments), each in the amount of $20,000. The Stipulations effectiveness is conditioned upon the Courts approval. The agents for the pre- and postpetition senior secured lenders do not object to the Courts approval of the Stipulation.3

The Debtors and the Committee has discussed the Motion and the Committee is considering its position at the time of filing of the Motion.

K&E 10811762.7

Relief Requested 12. By this Motion, the Debtors respectfully request that the Court approve the

Stipulation pursuant to sections 361(1) and 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a). Basis for Relief 13. Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a) provides, in pertinent part, that [o]n motion by the

[debtor in possession] and after notice and a hearing, the court may approve a compromise or settlement. Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9019(a). Section 363(b) allows a trustee or debtor in possession to use property of the estate other than in the ordinary course of business after appropriate notice and hearing. See 11 U.S.C. 363(b)(1). 14. Compromises are tools for expediting the administration of the case and reducing

administrative costs and are favored in bankruptcy. See Protective Comm. of Independent Stockholders of TMT Trailer Ferry, Inc. v. Anderson, 390 U.S. 414, 424 (1968) (In administering reorganization proceedings in an economic and practical matter it will often be wise to arrange the settlement of claims.); Fishell v. Soltow (In re Fishell), No. 92-1109, 1995 WL 66622, at *2 (6th Cir. 1995); In re Haven, Inc., 2005 WL 927666, at *1 (6th Cir. B.A.P. 2005); In re Dow Corning Corp., 192 B.R. 415, 421 (AJS) (Bankr. E.D. Mich. 1996); see also Fogel v. Zell, 221 F.3d 955, 960 (7th Cir. 2000); In re Martin, 91 F.3d 389, 393 (3d Cir. 1996) (To minimize litigation and expedite the administration of a bankruptcy case, [c]ompromises are favored in bankruptcy.) (quoting 9 Collier on Bankruptcy 9019.03[1] (15th Ed. 1993)). Moreover, various courts have endorsed the use of Bankruptcy Rule 9019 to resolve disputes. See, e.g., Bartel v. Bar Harbour Airways, Inc., 196 B.R. 268, 271 (S.D.N.Y. 1996); In re Check Reporting Service, Inc., 137 B.R. 653, 656 (Bankr. W.D. Mich. 1992); In re Miller, 148 B.R.

4
K&E 10811762.7

510, 516 (Bankr. N.D. Ill. 1992); In re Planned Systems, Inc., 82 B.R. 919, 921 (Bankr. S.D. Ohio 1988). 15. Generally, a settlement should be approved if it is determined to be fair and

equitable and does not fall below the lowest level of reasonableness. See Bauer v. Commerce Union Bank, 859 F.2d 438, 441 (6th Cir. 1988); In re Haven, Inc. 2005 WL 927666, at *3 (6th Cir. B.A.P. 2005); In re Dow Corning Corp., 192 B.R. 415, 421 (AJS) (Bankr. E.D. Mich. 1996). In determining whether a compromise satisfies this standard, courts ordinarily consider: (a) the probability of success in the litigation; (b) the difficulties, if any, to be encountered in the matter of collection; (c) the complexity and expense of the litigation involved; and (d) the paramount interest of creditors and proper deference to their reasonable views. See, e.g., Bard at 530; In re Dow Corning Corp., 2003 WL 22218449, at *1 (DPH) (Bankr. E.D. Mich. 2003); In re Dalen, 259 B.R. 586, 611-13 (Bankr. W.D. Mich. 2001); In re Stinson, Inc., 221 B.R. 726, 732 (SWR) (Bankr. E.D. Mich. 1998). 16. The Stipulation presently before the Court satisfies the standard. If the parties did

not agree to the Stipulation, the Debtors and Mayer would become embroiled in litigation over the value of the Collateral, the outcome of which is uncertain. Such litigation would require that both parties, at great expense, employ expert appraisers and other professionals to determine the accurate value of the Collateral. The expenses incurred in this litigation would be an additional burden to the estates and their creditors. This Stipulation avoids both the uncertainty of litigation and the heavy encumbrance it would place on the estates and their creditors. 17. Section 363(b)(1) provides that [t]he trustee, after notice and a hearing, may use,

sell, or lease, other than in the ordinary course of business, property of the estate. 11 U.S.C. 363(b)(1). Courts within the Sixth Circuit have held that transactions should be approved

5
K&E 10811762.7

under section 363 when they are supported by sound business judgment. See, e.g., Stephens Indus., Inc. v. McClung, 789 F.2d 386, 390 (6th Cir. 1986) (concluding that a court can authorize a sale of a Debtors assets when a sound business purpose dictates such action.); In re Embrace Sys. Corp., 178 B.R. 112, 124 (Bankr. W.D. Mich. 1995); see also In re North American Royalties, Inc., 276 B.R. 860, 866 (Bankr. E.D. Tenn. 2002). 18. The Stipulation is supported by a sound business purpose. The Debtors seek

approval of this Stipulation to minimize the costs associated with providing adequate protection and preserve their relationship with Mayer. Mayer provides the Debtors with equipment that is essential to their businesses. Any litigation between the parties will be costly and may cause Mayer to refuse to enter into new sale contracts with the Debtors, thereby possibly hindering the Debtors operations and their reorganization efforts. 19. Moreover, if the parties did not agree to the stipulation, on information and belief,

Mayer would have filed a motion requesting adequate protection under section 363(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. Mayer has indicated that it would have requested amounts in excess of $20,000. Given the legal standards regarding a partys request for such payments, defending against the request would require the Debtors to incur substantial costs with respect to discovery, attorneys fees and time spent on the litigation. Further, the Debtors submit that the adequate protection amounts under the Stipulation are consistent with the standards in section 361(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. 20. Accordingly, for all of the foregoing reasons, the Debtors submit that the facts

underlying the Stipulation meet the standards of Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a) and section 363(b), and that the Court should, therefore, grant the Motion.
