Nexis Industries, Inc. is declared insolvent in a Philippine court and the court issues an Order of Liquidation naming Atty. Liza Dizon as Liquidator. The order provides: (1) all actions against Nexis are stayed; (2) Nexis’s assets vest in the Liquidator for administration and realization; (3) the Liquidator may marshal and realize the estate for the benefit of creditors. Before liquidation, Nexis had: (a) a secured loan with Crest Bank; (b) a manufacturing facility lease with Harbor Realty; and (c) an exclusive distribution agreement with Prime Foods granting Nexis the right to distribute Prime Foods’ products in the country for six years. After the Order, Crest Bank files to collect the loan; Harbor Realty seeks to terminate the lease; Prime Foods asserts that the distribution agreement remains in effect but is assignable to the estate. (a) Identify the central doctrine governing the effects of a liquidation order on pending actions and on the debtor’s assets. (b) Distinguish these effects from the aims and effects of a rehabilitation order. (c) Apply to the facts: what is the current status of Crest Bank’s collection action, and what is the status of Harbor Realty’s lease and Prime Foods’ distribution agreement? What steps can the Liquidator take regarding Crest Bank’s claim, the lease, and the distribution agreement?
