Law360, New York (April 26, 2011, 8:15 PM ET) -- Gas producer North American Petroleum Corp. on Monday announced a $98 million settlement with its lenders and its business partner, Equal Energy Inc., that could clear a major hurdle in its plan to reorganize and exit Delaware bankruptcy court.
NAPC's proposed settlement calls for it sell the bulk of its assets in Oklahoma, where it has a stake in a large resource play, to Equal, and transfer the money to its major lenders Texas Capital Bank NA and Compass Bank.
