Multiple Debtors: Best Practices for Governance in Multi-Debtor CasesThis panel will discuss how to make sure management (and the board) plays the role of neutral stakeholder throughout a plan and/or §  363 process. Can the same board and management team truly represent the interests of stakeholders of BOTH a corporate parent and its subsidiaries? What if there are dozens of affiliates whose creditors have disparate interests? Why is the issue of corporate separateness (and related conflicts) overlooked in some multiple-debtor cases, but addressed in others? What are the pros and cons of various tools for addressing potential conflicts? Who should investigate when issues are raised about the validity of intercompany debt, the reasonableness of cost allocations, the ownership of intellectual property and the potential for fraudulent conveyance claims among debtors? Examples discussed may include Nortel, Caesars, EFH, Lehman, Tribune and others. Lisa G. Beckerman, Moderator Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP Martin J. Bienenstock Proskauer Nancy A.

Michael Luskin, Moderator Luskin, Stern & Eisler LLP Philip Bentley Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP Karin Scholz Jenson BakerHostetler Hon. Sean H. Lane U.S. Bankruptcy Court (S.D.N.Y.)

Flashpoints for Intercreditor DisputesWhat happens after a successful credit bid? This panel will discuss the scope of § 363 sale orders and whether they should or even can address intercreditor issues, corporate governance and funding issues, unitranche deals, the difference in protections between an agreement among lenders and an intercreditor agreement, the Radio Shack intercreditor adversary proceeding, § 1111(b) elections (Baker Hughes), adequate protection (In re Chardon) and lien-stripping (Caulkett). Glenn E. Siegel, Moderator Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP William A. Brandt, Jr. Development Specialists, Inc. Kristopher M. Hansen Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP Hon. Robert D. Drain U.S. Bankruptcy Court (S.D.N.Y.)

Current Issues in the Energy SectorHow are cash-collateral orders and adequate-protection packages being fashioned in E&P bankruptcies, and what intercreditor issues can arise as a result? This panel will discuss questions relating to lender collateral that may surface in E&P cases, such as (1) the absence of blanket liens, liens on reserves and cash as security; (2) the impact of state law defining property rights in such assets as royalty streams and leasehold interests; and (3) contract interpretation issues involving prepayment agreements and other arrangements. The panel will also discuss E&P valuation issues

and their relationship to the commodity pricing cycle, as well as environmental obligations and pension/OPEB issues (e.g., Peabody). Dennis F. Dunne, Moderator Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP Mitchell C. Fane Ernst & Young LLP Ira L. Herman Thompson & Knight LLP Daniel B. Kamensky Marble Ridge Capital LP Hon. Brendan Linehan Shannon U.S. Bankruptcy Court (D. Del.) Wilmington

Ethics Panel: Current Issues in the Retention and Compensation of Bankruptcy ProfessionalsHow will the Supreme Court’s decision in Baker Botts v. ASARCO affect professional fees? Will there be an increase in fee litigation in future chapter 11 cases? This panel will also explore the Tribune standard for payment of unsecured creditors’ post-petition professionals’ fees, fees awarded as part of global settlements (Lehman), and the recent use of fee examiners. The session could also include a discussion on when disclosure of “representations of parties in unrelated matters” is sufficient, whether conflicts can be cured by the appointment of conflicts counsel, a recent Ninth Circuit decision on the potential implications of exceeding fee caps, when it is necessary to obtain a conflict waiver,

current vs. recent vs. former clients, and directly adverse vs. positionally adverse. Michael P. Richman, Moderator Hunton & Williams LLP Daniel A.
