11
Proceeding and Emergence
 
On
July 8, 2016,
C&J Energy Services Ltd., a Bermuda corporation (the “Predecessor”) and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”), including C&J Corporate Services (Bermuda) Ltd. (together with the Predecessor, the “Bermudian Entities”), C&J Energy Production Services-Canada Ltd. and Mobile Data Technologies Ltd. (together, the “Canadian Entities”), entered into a Restructuring Support and Lock-Up Agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”), with certain lenders (the “Supporting Lenders”) holding approximately
90.0%
of the secured claims and interests arising under the Credit Agreement, dated as of
March 
24,
2015
(as amended and otherwise modified, the “Original Credit Agreement”). The Restructuring Support Agreement contemplated the implementation of a financial restructuring of the Company, including the elimination of all amounts owed under the Original Credit Agreement through a complete debt-to-equity conversion and a re-investment in the Company through an equity rights offering. This financial restructuring was effectuated through the Restructuring Plan under Chapter
11
of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
To implement the Restructuring Support Agreement, on
July 20, 2016
(
the “Petition Date”), the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the “Bankruptcy Petitions”) seeking relief under the provisions of Chapter
11
of the Bankruptcy Code with the
United States Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division
(the “Bankruptcy Court”), and also commenced ancillary proceedings in Canada on behalf of the Canadian Entities and a provisional liquidation proceeding in Bermuda on behalf of the Bermudian Entities (collectively, the “Chapter
11
Proceeding”). The Chapter
11
Proceeding was being administered under the caption “
In re: CJ Holding Co., et al., Case
No.
16
-
33590
”. Throughout the Chapter
11
Proceeding, the Debtors continued operations and management of their assets in the ordinary course as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.
 
In accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Debtors filed the plan of reorganization (the " Restructuring Plan") and related disclosure statement (the “Disclosure Statement”) with the Bankruptcy Court on
August 19, 2016,
with a
first
amendment to the Restructuring Plan filed on
September 28, 2016
and a
second
amendment filed on
November 3, 2016.
On
November 4, 2016,
the Bankruptcy Court approved the Disclosure Statement, finding that the Disclosure Statement contained adequate information as required by the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors then launched a solicitation of acceptances of the Restructuring Plan, as required by the Bankruptcy Code. On
December 
16,
2016,
an order confirming the Restructuring Plan was entered by the Bankruptcy Court. On
January 6, 2017 (
the "Plan Effective Date"), the Debtors substantially consummated the Restructuring Plan and emerged from the Chapter
11
Proceeding. As part of the transactions undertaken pursuant to the Restructuring Plan, as of the Plan Effective Date, the Successor was formed, the Predecessor's equity was canceled, the Predecessor transferred all of its assets and operations to the Successor and the Predecessor was subsequently dissolved. As a result, the Successor became the successor issuer to the Predecessor. For additional information regarding the Chapter
