What Is Chapter 11?
Chapter 11 is a form of bankruptcy that involves a reorganization of a debtor’s business affairs, debts, and assets, and for that reason is known as "reorganization" bankruptcy.
More from google-fu:
The biggest advantage is that the entity, usually a business, can continue operations while going through the reorganization process. This allows them to generate cash flow that can aid in the repayment process. The court also issues an order that keeps creditors at bay. Most creditors are receptive to Chapter 11 as they stand to recoup more, if not all, of their money over the course of the repayment plan
The tone changes when you are not making one line spins. D4E is not guaranteed. It is not even preferable to just continuing on and keep paying off the debt. That is why it is called a haircut. Other options like selling assets still in the table.
