JURISDICTION

1. This Court has jurisdiction to consider this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334, and the Amended Standing Order of Reference from the United States District Court for the District of Delaware dated as of February 29, 2012. This is a core proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 157(b) and venue is proper in this district pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

2. The statutory predicates for the relief requested herein are section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019.

BACKGROUND

A. General Background

3. On March 2, 2016 (the “Petition Date”), each of the Debtors commenced a voluntary case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”). Pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors are continuing to manage their financial affairs as debtors in possession.

4. On March 10, 2016, the Office of the United States Trustee (the “U.S. Trustee”) appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the “Committee”) in these Chapter 11 Cases [Docket. No. 262].

5. Information regarding the Debtors’ history, business operations, capital structure and primary secured indebtedness, and the events leading up to the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases, can be found in the Declaration of Jeremy Aguilar in Support of the Debtors’

Chapter 11 Petitions and Requests for First Day Relief [Docket No. 22].

B. The Tax Appeals

6. Prior to the Petition Date, the Petitioners filed the Tax Appeals contesting the amount of taxes assessed against them by the County Assessor for the years 2013, 2014, and 2015, and in April of 2016 TSA Stores filed the Tax Appeal contesting the amount of taxes

(3)

assessed against it for 2016. TSA Stores has undertaken negotiations with the County Assessor and the Petitioners have entered into the agreements set forth in the stipulated judgments attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Stipulated Judgments”), which will result in approximately $163,000 in refunds for tax years 2013, 2014, and 2015, plus 4% interest due from October 16 of the applicable tax year, and approximately $43,600 in reduced tax bills for tax year 2016.

Counsel fees in the amount of 17% of all realized savings plus filing fees will be paid from the refunded amount.

7. The Petitioners have executed the Stipulated Judgments on the condition that the Stipulated Judgments will not be filed with the Ramsey County District Court until the terms, conditions, and provisions thereof are approved by this Court. In light of the tax savings realized through the Stipulated Judgments and the small likelihood of achieving higher savings through further litigation of the Tax Appeals, the Debtors have determined, in the sound exercise of their business judgment, and in consultation with their advisors, that it is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and all interested parties to settle the Tax Appeals.

RELIEF REQUESTED

8. By this Motion, the Debtors request entry of the Proposed Order, pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, (a) approving and authorizing the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Stipulated Judgments and (b) approving the entry of the Stipulated Judgments by the Ramsey County District Court.

BASIS FOR RELIEF REQUESTED

9. Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a) provides that “on motion by the trustee and after a hearing, the Court may approve a compromise or settlement.” Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9019(a). The settlement of time-consuming and burdensome litigation, especially in the bankruptcy context, is encouraged. See In re Penn Central Transp. Co., 596 F.2d 1102 (3d Cir. 1979) (“The Court has

(4)

4

01:18814760.1

recognized that ‘(i)n administering reorganization proceedings in an economical and practical manner it will often be wise to arrange the settlement of claims as to which there are substantial and reasonable doubts.’”) (quoting In re Protective Comm. for Indep. Stockholders of TMT

Ferry, Inc. v. Anderson, 390 U.S. 414, 424 (1968)). In determining the fairness and equity of a

compromise in bankruptcy, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals has stated that it is important that the bankruptcy court “apprise[] itself of all facts necessary to form an intelligent and objective opinion of the probabilities of ultimate success should the claims be litigated . . . and estimate the complexity, expense and likely duration of such litigation, and other factors relevant to a full and fair assessment of the [claims].” Id. at 1153.

10. The Third Circuit has enumerated the following four-factor test to be used in deciding whether a settlement should be approved: (1) the probability of success in litigation; (2) the likely difficulties in collection; (3) the complexity of the litigation involved and the expense, inconvenience and delay necessarily attending it; and (4) the paramount interest of creditors. Will v. Northwestern Univ. (In re Nutraquest, Inc.), 434 F.3d 639, 644 (3d Cir. 2006).

11. Approval of a proposed settlement is within the “sound discretion” of the

bankruptcy court. See In re Neshaminy Office Bldg. Assocs., 62 B.R. 798, 803 (E.D. Pa. 1986). The bankruptcy court should not substitute its judgment for that of the debtor. Id. The court is not to decide numerous questions of law or fact raised by litigation, but, rather, should canvass the issues to see whether the settlement falls below the lowest point in the range of

reasonableness. See In re W.T. Grant & Co., 699 F.2d 599, 608 (2d Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 464 U.S. 22 (1983); see also Official Comm. of Unsecured Creditors v. CIT Grp./Bus. Credit Inc. (In

re Jevic Holding Corp.), 787 F.3d 173, 180 (3d Cir. 2015); Mangano v. Warriner (In re ID

(5)

Liquidation One, LLC), 555 Fed. App’x 202, 205-206 (3d Cir. 2014); In re Sea Containers Ltd.,

2008 WL 4296562, at *5 (Bankr. D. Del. Sept. 19, 2008).

12. The Debtors believe that the Stipulated Judgments will provide a material benefit to these estates for the benefit of all stakeholders by providing for refunds or reduced tax bills and have determined, in consultation with the Debtors’ counsel, that further litigation of the Tax Appeals is unlikely to result in higher savings. In light of the foregoing, the Debtors, in their business judgment, believe that the Stipulated Judgments represent a compromise that is fair and equitable and advances the paramount interests of the creditors of these estates. Accordingly, for the reasons set forth above, the Debtors submit that entering into the Stipulated Judgments is an exercise of sound business judgment and that the Court should therefore approve the Stipulated Judgments.

REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF STAY

13. To implement the foregoing, the Debtors seek a waiver of any stay of the effectiveness of the order approving this Motion. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h), any “order authorizing the use, sale, or lease of property other than cash collateral is stayed until the expiration of 14 days after entry of the order, unless the court orders otherwise.” The Debtors submit that the relief requested in this Motion is necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors for the reasons set forth herein. Accordingly, the Debtors respectfully request a waiver of the notice requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h) to the extent that they are deemed applicable.

NOTICE

14. The Debtors have provided notice of this Motion to: (a) the U.S. Trustee; (b) Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, 919 North Market St., 17th Floor, Wilmington, DE 19801 (Attn: Bradford J. Sandler and Colin Robinson), counsel for the Committee; (c) Riemer &
