There were not 2 bids for the company as a whole. They started the bankruptcy with a lot of hope, and I am sure had a lot of hopeful discussions, but no offers to be bound by such terms actually materialized. Pretty clear from the 6th Report that the Monitor accepted the highest bid possible, and that was confirmed when the judge approved it. It is the judge's duty to be sure that the course of action chosen is in the best interest of all stakeholders and in accordance with prior agreements, and in this case that meant taking the highest bid for the assets even though it meant wiping out shareholders.
