The real estate leasing market is booming in some locations and industries, but restructurings may be on the horizon with rising interest rates and the ongoing impact of COVID. Join our panel of experts for a recorded discussion on how leases could be treated in bankruptcy, including (a) whether the leases will be treated as “residential” or “non-residential” and why you should care; (b) whether your master lease will withstand an attempt to treat it as severable, capable of partial rejection and assumption; (c) whether your lease could be recharacterized as an unsecured disguised financing; (d) the enforceability of a right of first refusal; and (e) the impact of bankruptcy on a month-to-month tenancy, as well as strategies you can implement now to mitigate risks in the next cycle.
