Assumption and Assignment of Executory Contracts. Bankruptcy is a jargon-heavy practice. The various terms of art tossed about by bankruptcy attorneys could fill a book.3 Luckily for franchisors and franchisees (and their attorneys, who may not regularly practice in bankruptcy court), under- standing the principal bankruptcy concepts at issue requires familiarity with only a handful of bankruptcy terms. The franchise agreement is known in bankruptcy as an executory contract. This simply means that when the bank- ruptcy case was filed, the party filing bankruptcy (i.e., the debtor) and the other party to the contract (in this case, the franchisor) each had material unperformed obligations under the contract. Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code4 gives a debtor two options with respect to an executory contract— assumption or rejection. If the debtor chooses to reject the contract, the nondebtor counterparty will seek a claim for damages as a creditor in the bankruptcy case. If the contract is assumed, the debtor must cure all past defaults, meaning that it must immediately pay all past-due amounts. The debt- or must also provide the nondebtor party with “adequate assurance of future performance.”5 In order to assign an executory contract, the debtor must first assume it. A debtor may not assume only the portions of a contract that it finds favorable. Rather, the contract must be assumed “cum onere,” i.e., with all of the benefits and obliga- tions that existed prior to the bankruptcy filing.6 If a contract is not executory, it cannot be assumed by the debtor, in which case debtors cannot take advantage of the bankruptcy law provisions that potentially allow the debtor to assign the con- tract over the objection of the counterparty. Unfortunately for franchisors, however, challenging the executory nature of a franchise agreement is not a viable option. Given the mutu- al obligations inherent in a franchise relationship, franchise agreements are clearly executory.7 When seeking to assign an executory contract, the debtor typically files a single motion in the bankruptcy court to both assume and assign. Often, the proposed assignee agrees to make the cure payments. Moreover, the bankruptcy court looks at the characteristics of the proposed assignee, such as creditworthiness, in determining what assurances of future performance must be provided to the contract counterparty. Anti-assignment Provisions and the Applicable Law Exception Bankruptcy law changes what is and what is not enforceable under a contract. Bank...
