The AI's read

The plan would let participating lenders put $60 million into the reorganized company for 55.8% of its shares, if approved. That leaves current owners facing serious uncertainty. The company also asked the court to approve loans and keep paying workers and key suppliers. Those steps may help operations continue, but they do not remove the risks of bankruptcy and a major ownership change.
