The prepackaged Chapter 11 plan was confirmed without creditor objection. Under the plan, the junior bank lenders will receive a 49% ownership stake, while Trump’s stake will decrease to 51%. Trump bought the Plaza in 1988, and incurred $300 million of long-term debt. Four banks comprising the junior lender group in July, 1988, loaned Trump $125 million for the purchase and renovation of the Plaza Operating Partners Ltd.
