NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Genesis Global Holdco, LLC (“GGH”), Genesis Global Capital, LLC (“GGC”) and Genesis Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. (“GAP”, together with GGH and GGC, “Genesis” or the “Company”) today announced that the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”) has confirmed the Company’s amended Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”), as well as approved the previously announced settlement agreement with the New York State Office of the Attorney General (“NYAG”).
“Our goal throughout this process has been to maximize value for all creditors, and we are gratified that the court approved both our Plan and the NYAG settlement agreement. We look forward to putting the Plan into effect and making distributions as expeditiously as possible,” said Derar Islim, Interim CEO, Genesis.
“We thank our creditors for their continued patience as we have worked through this process,” said Paul Aronzon, member of the Special Committee of Genesis. “We sincerely appreciate the ongoing and tireless efforts of Genesis’s management, employees and advisors who helped us achieve this important milestone.”
Unique to the Genesis process, under the terms of the Plan, creditors will receive distributions in kind to preserve the value for creditors in the form of the original assets they loaned as much as possible, rather than being limited to the USD value of the cryptocurrency assets as of the petition date and converting these into cash or other forms of repayment that might not reflect the current or future value of the cryptocurrency assets.
