Structured Security Issuance Valuation
On September 1, 2011, the Debtors filed the Third Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and Its Affiliated Debtors [Docket No. 19628] (the “
Amended Plan”), and the Disclosure Statement for the Amended Plan [Docket No. 19630] (the “
Disclosure Statement”). Section V.D. of the Disclosure Statement entitled “Valuation of Structured Securities,” and Exhibit 11 of the Disclosure Statement provides information to claimants regarding the principles and methodologies (the “
Structured Securities Methodology”) LBHI intends to use to value certain (i) structured notes issued by Lehman Brothers Treasury Co. B.V. (“
LBT Issued Notes”), (ii) certificates and warrants issued by Lehman Brothers Securities N.V. (the “
LBSN Certificates and Warrants”), (iii) structured notes issued by LBHI (the “
LBHI Structured Notes”), (iv) structured notes issued by Lehman Brothers Bankhaus AG (the “
Bankhaus Structured Notes”), (v) structured securities issued by Lehman Brothers (Luxembourg) Equity Finance S.A. (the “
LB Lux Structured Securities”) and (vi) certificates issued by Lehman Brothers Finance S.A. (the “
LB Finance Structured Securities,” and collectively with the LBT Issued Notes, the LBSN Certificates and Warrants, the LBHI Structured Notes, the Bankhaus Structured Notes and the LB Lux Structured Securities, the “
Structured Securities”).
The Structured Securities Methodology set forth in the Disclosure Statement differs from the methodology set forth in the Form 8-K filed by LBHI on October 29, 2010 (the “
October 29th 8K”), which related primarily to the LBT Issued Notes. The differences include (i) adding back the credit value adjustment for all categories of Structured Securities, (ii) reclassifying certain Structured Securities as Par Par Notes if the terms of the security provide for principal protection, and (iii) adding all accreted interest to the estimated maximum allowable claim amounts for the Zero Coupon Notes.
Pursuant to the Court's Order, dated August 10, 2011, Approving Procedures for Determining the Allowed Amount of Claims Filed Based on Structured Securities Issued or Guaranteed by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. [ECF No. 19120] (the "SSVM Order"), a list of each Structured Security by issuer and the corresponding Proposed Allowed Claim Amount calculated using the Structured Securities Valuation Methodology is available here (and in the link below), and a copy of the statement of the Creditors' Committee in response to the Motion seeking approval of the SSVM Order is available here.
List of each Structured Security by issuer and the corresponding Proposed Allowed Claim Amount
The Debtors have corrected certain manifest errors in the valuations of certain of the Structured Securities since posting the previous list of proposed Allowed Claim amounts. The list of proposed Allowed Claim amounts identifies the Structured Securities affected and includes the corrected proposed Allowed Claim amounts for each of the Structured Securities.
Nothing contained in the Disclosure Statement is to be construed as an admission of liability by LBHI with respect to any Structured Security or claim filed against LBHI based thereon. LBHI reserves the right to object to any claims filed against it based on the Structured Securities on any and all grounds.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be construed to (i) characterize the Structured Securities (or any other structured notes issued by LBHI and its affiliates) as “securities contracts” or “swap agreements” under the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) modify or pertain to the terms of any over-the-counter derivatives or similar contract between LBHI or any of its affiliates and any other person; or (iii) limit or otherwise modify the application of Section 562 of the Bankruptcy Code to such over-the-counter derivatives or similar contracts.
Nothing contained herein or in the Disclosure Statement is to be construed as an extension of any deadline established by the Bar Date Order.
The methodologies described in the Disclosure Statement are strictly for the purpose of determining the amount of allowed claims based on valid and timely filed proofs of claim and nothing contained in the Disclosure Statement shall be construed as inconsistent with, or contradictory to, any prior disclosure pursuant to the Structured Securities offering materials, or otherwise.
LBHI’s obligations, if any, to holders of Structured Securities with respect to the LB Finance Structured Securities, the LBT Issued Notes, the LBSN Certificates and Warrants, the Bankhaus Structured Notes and the LB Lux Structured Securities, are solely as guarantor.
To the extent that there are computational errors or omissions in the valuation of the Structured Securities, LBHI will make adjustments and corrections to the Structured Securities List as LBHI deems necessary, in its sole discretion.
