It is not only the WIN Employees who can request an EC but also any Shareholder.
I recall the WMI Docket was flooded with requests for an EC and mostly from Shareholders who had purchased common shares post bankruptcy.
I can’t figure out why the Shareholders in this WIN bankruptcy have been so docile. Perhaps it is the Debtors statement that it filed a Chapter 11 to address/restructure the bond agreements - after the Aurelius win - that has confused Shareholders.
Not having an EC will save money, however I do wish more WIN employees had filed a request for an EC.
