Looks like the group of lenders that sent Chrysler into bankruptcy have given up. Things should move along much more quickly now - having them out of the way definitely removes a lot of hassle and can make the emergence from BK much cleaner.
It seems like a waste to me. They held less than 4% of the total debt, but they were still able to force the bankruptcy. If bankruptcy was such a good solution, would they have been happier if the government decided to not put any TAXPAYER money into Chrysler and let it go Ch 7? In that scenario they would have gotten much less than the $0.30 on the dollar that was on the table to keep Chrysler out of BK. Instead, they got greedy and wanted a bigger return than what the TAXPAYERS had funded for them and put on a silver platter for them - and now we're losing jobs, dealers, suppliers, etc. Dumb-a$$es...
