Representation of the jointly administered chapter 15 debtors of Mega Brands Inc. as Delaware counsel. Mega Brands, a Canadian corporation headquartered in Montréal, is the parent corporation of a global enterprise with a family of leading brands in construction toys, games, puzzles, arts, crafts, and stationery. Mega Brands and certain other subsidiaries and affiliates commenced a proceeding in Canada to implement a balance-sheet restructuring of its funded debt obligations and to reposition the Company for a return to profitability.
