Jurisdiction 1. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1334. This

matter is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. 157 (b)(2). 2. 3. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409. The statutory basis for the relief requested herein is section 365(a) of the

Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101-1330 (the Bankruptcy Code). Background 4. On May 17, 2005 (the Petition Date), the Debtors filed their voluntary petitions

for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are operating their businesses and managing their properties as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in these cases. On the Petition Date, the Court entered an order jointly administering these cases pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015(b). 5. On May 24, 2005, the United States Trustee appointed an official committee of

unsecured creditors pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (the Committee). 6. The Debtors and their non-debtor affiliates are leading global suppliers of

automotive components, systems and modules to all of the worlds largest vehicle manufacturers, including DaimlerChrysler AG, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Honda Motor Company, Inc., Nissan Motor Company Unlimited, Porsche Cars GB, Renault Crateur DAutomobiles, Toyota SA and Volkswagen AG. Relief Requested 7. To reduce costs, the Debtors have identified a certain unexpired lease at the

Debtors corporate headquarters in Troy, Michigan, listed on Schedule A attached to the proposed order (the 350 Stephenson Lease), that is at above-market rates and is no longer 2

K&E 10769444.6

necessary for the Debtors ongoing business operations. The Debtors request that the Court set the effective date of the rejection to be the date set forth on Schedule A to the proposed order. Basis for Relief 8. Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a debtor in possession

subject to the courts approval, may . . . reject any executory contract or unexpired lease of the debtor. 11 U.S.C. 365(a). This provision allows a trustee to relieve the bankruptcy estate of burdensome agreements which have not been completely performed. Stewart Title Guar. Co. v. Old Republic Natl Title Co., 83 F.3d 735, 741 (5th Cir. 1996) (citing In re Muerexco Petroleum, Inc., 15 F.3d 60, 62 (5th Cir. 1994)). 9. The standard applied to determine whether the rejection of an executory contract

or unexpired lease should be authorized is the business judgment standard. See Matter of McLouth Steel Corp., 20 B.R. 688, 692 (Bankr. E.D. Mich. 1982); see also NLRB v. Bildisco & Bildisco, 465 U.S. 513, 524 (1984); Orion Pictures Corp. v. Showtime Networks, Inc. (In re Orion Pictures Corp.), 4 F.3d 1095, 1098-99 (2nd Cir. 1993); Robertson v. Pierce (In re ChiFeng Huang), 23 B.R. 798, 800 (9th Cir. 1982) (holding that whether an executory contract should be rejected is a matter within the business judgment of the trustee); In re Federated Dept. Stores, Inc., 131 B.R. 808, 811 (S.D. Ohio 1991) (Courts traditionally have applied the business judgment standard in determining whether to authorize the rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases.). Rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease is appropriate where such rejection would benefit the estate. See Sharon Steel Corp. v. National Fuel Gas Distrib. Corp. (In re Sharon Steel Corp.), 872 F.2d 36, 40 (3d Cir. 1989); Commercial Fin. Ltd. v. Hawaii Dimensions, Inc. (In re Hawaii Dimensions, Inc.), 47 B.R. 425, 427 (Bankr. D. Haw. 1985) (Under the business judgment test, a court should approve a debtors proposed rejection if such rejection will benefit the estate.).
K&E 10769444.6

10.

Upon finding that the Debtors have exercised their sound business judgment in

determining that rejection of the 350 Stephenson Lease is in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors and all parties in interest, the Court should approve the rejections under section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. See, e.g., Westbury Real Estate Ventures, Inc. v. Bradlees, Inc. (In re Bradlees Stores, Inc.), 194 B.R. 555, 558 n.1 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1996); Summit Land Co. v. Allen (In re Summit Land Co.), 13 B.R. 310, 315 (Bankr. D. Utah 1981) (holding that absent extraordinary circumstances, court approval of a debtors decision to assume or reject an executory contract should be granted as a matter of course). If a debtors business judgment has been reasonably exercised, a court should approve the assumption or rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease. See, e.g., NLRB v. Bildisco & Bildisco, 462 U.S. at 523 (1984); In re Sharon Steel Corp., 872 F.2d at 39-40. 11. The Debtors have evaluated the 350 Stephenson Lease and, in the exercise of their

business judgment, have determined that the 350 Stephenson Lease should be rejected. The 350 Stephenson Lease listed on Exhibit A is an unexpired lease for one of the three buildings at the Debtors corporate headquarters in Troy, Michigan. The Debtors have determined that the 350 Stephenson Lease is substantially above-market and provides more space than the Debtors need for ongoing operations.2 Thus, the Debtors believe that rejection of the 350 Stephenson Lease is appropriate and in the best interests of the estates.

The lessor for the 350 Stephenson Lease is an affiliate of Charles Becker, a former insider of the Debtors. Mr. Becker has since resigned his position with the Debtors and is no longer involved with the Debtors or the chapter 11 cases.

K&E 10769444.6

12.

If the Court grants the relief requested in the Motion, the Debtors will save a

significant amount per month in expenses.3 Furthermore, the 350 Stephenson Lease may present contingent obligations that should be terminated to avoid future uncertainty. Notice 13. Notice of this Motion has been given to the Primary Service List as required by

the Case Management Procedures and the counterparty to the 350 Stephenson Lease at the address listed on Schedule A attached to the proposed order.4 In light of the nature of the relief requested, the Debtors submit that no further notice is required. No Prior Request 14. court. No prior motion for the relief requested herein has been made to this or any other

The Debtors have or may have claims against the counterparty to the 350 Stephenson Lease arising under, or independently of, the 350 Stephenson Lease. The Debtors do not waive such claims by the filing of this Motion or by rejecting the 350 Stephenson Lease. Capitalized terms used in this paragraph 13 not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the First Amended Notice, Case Management and Administrative Procedures [Docket No. 294].

WHEREFORE, the Debtors respectfully request the entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, (a) authorizing rejection of the 350 Stephenson Lease and (b) granting such other and further relief as the Court deems appropriate.
