Resource from: BUSINESS WIRE Likes:183
Mar 08,2016
CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EnPro Industries, Inc. (NYSE: NPO) today announced that its Garlock Sealing Technologies (GST) subsidiary has agreed with the court-appointed legal representative of future asbestos claimants (the FCR) and the official committee representing current asbestos claimants (the Current Claimants’ Committee) in GST’s Asbestos Claims Resolution Process (ACRP) pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina to postpone until a later date to be determined the hearing in the ACRP that had been scheduled to be held on March 10, 2016. The purpose of the postponement is to permit the parties to continue to focus on the negotiation of a potential consensual settlement.
EnPro and GST continue to believe that an agreed settlement with both the FCR and the Current Claimants’ Committee would provide the best path to certainty and finality of the ACRP, provide for faster and more efficient completion of the case, save significant future costs, and allow for the attainment of complete finality. However, there can be no assurance that the current or any future negotiations will result in a settlement among GST and both the FCR and the Current Claimants’ Committee. Neither EnPro nor GST plans to provide any further interim updates on the status of negotiations.
