  And that’s the restructuring one? Does that let them escape or decrease their leases?

    Yup, 11 is the restructuring one. Very little will happen automatically, but they will try to renegotiate their leases. In a world where big companies are adjusting to WFH being a norm, though no longer the the norm, this has the feeling of pissing on a house fire. When their Chapter 11 restructuring fails, that's when they'll file for Chapter 7 (liquidation)
