reorganization is confirmed for these cases. In support of this Motion, the Debtors respectfully state as follows: Jurisdiction 1. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1334. This

matter is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(2). 2. 3. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and 1409. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 105(a) and 365 of

the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 101-1330 (the Bankruptcy Code). Background 4. On May 17, 2005 (the Petition Date), the Debtors filed their voluntary petitions

for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are operating their businesses and managing their properties as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in these cases. On the Petition Date, the Court entered an order jointly administering these cases pursuant to Rule 1015(b) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. 5. On May 24, 2005, the United States trustee appointed an official committee of

unsecured creditors pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (the Committee). 6. The Debtors and their non-debtor affiliates are leading global suppliers of

automotive components, systems and modules to all of the worlds largest vehicle manufacturers, including DaimlerChrysler AG, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Honda Motor Company, Inc., Nissan Motor Company Unlimited and Toyota SA. 7. Pursuant to the Order Further Extending the Period During Which the Debtors

Must Assume or Reject Unexpired Leases of Nonresidential Real Property [Docket No. 2023], the Debtors must assume or reject all of their unexpired leases of nonresidential real property, 2
K&E 11219194.6

save certain properties, on or before the date a plan of reorganization is confirmed for these cases. For certain properties, namely the properties leased with the Becker Lessors at (a) 6600 East Fifteen Mile Road, Sterling Heights, Michigan, (b) 1601 Clark Road, Havre de Grace, Maryland and (c) 47785 West Anchor Court, Plymouth, Michigan (collectively, the Leases), the Debtors agreed to a shorter timeframe of July 15, 2006 but reserved their right to seek further extensions of time to assume or reject some or all of the Leases. 8. On July 13, 2006, the Court approved the Debtors request to extend the period

within which the Debtors must assume or reject the Leases until September 27, 2006. However, in connection with such extension, the Debtors specifically negotiated to reserve their right to seek further extensions of time to assume or reject some or all of the Leases. 9. On August 30, 2006, the Debtors filed the Joint Plan of Reorganization of

Collins & Aikman Corporation and Its Domestic Subsidiaries [Docket No. 3234] (the Plan) and the disclosure statement related thereto [Docket No. 3233] (the Disclosure Statement). Pursuant to the Plan, the Debtors will file a list of executory contracts and unexpired leases they seek to assume or reject ten days prior to the hearing on confirmation of the Plan. Relief Requested 10. As explained in the Debtors fifth motion for an order extending the Debtors

exclusivity periods to file a chapter 11 plan and to solicit votes thereon, filed contemporaneously herewith, the Debtors recently filed their Plan and Disclosure Statement. In connection with the Plan, the Debtors, in conjunction with the agent for the prepetition lenders, are evaluating all of their executory contracts and unexpired leases, including the Leases, to determine whether assumption or rejection of such contracts and leases is beneficial to the Debtors estates. Accordingly, the Debtors simply require more time to make an informed decision on the Leases,

3
K&E 11219194.6

and the Debtors expect that this decision will be made in connection with confirmation of the Plan. 11. For these reasons, by this Motion, the Debtors respectfully request that the Court

enter an order, pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, extending the period within which the Debtors must assume or reject the Leases until the date a plan of reorganization is confirmed for these cases. Basis for Relief 12. Section 365(d)(4) provides, in relevant part, as follows: [I]f the trustee does not assume or reject an unexpired lease of nonresidential real property under which the Debtors are the lessee within 60 days after the date of the order for relief, or within such additional time as the court, for cause, within such 60 day period, fixes, then such leases are deemed rejected and the trustee shall immediately surrender such nonresidential real property to the lessor. 11 U.S.C. 365(d)(4) (emphasis added). Thus, upon a showing of cause by a debtor, a court may grant an extension of time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property. See 11 U.S.C. 365(d)(4); In re Channel Home Centers, Inc., 989 F.2d 682 (3d Cir. 1993); In re Travel 2000, Inc., 264 B.R. 451 (Bankr. W.D. Mich. 2001); In re Service Merchandise Co., Inc., 256 B.R. 744 (Bankr. M.D. Tenn. 2000); In re Chestnut Ridge Plaza Assoc., L.P., 156 B.R. 477 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1993). 13. In determining whether cause exists to extend the period within which a debtor

must assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property, courts have considered various factors, including: (a) whether the debtors continued occupation could damage the lessor beyond the compensation available under the Bankruptcy Code; (b) whether the lessor continues to receive rent for the use of the property; (c) whether the lease is the debtors primary asset; (d) whether the debtor has had sufficient time to formulate a plan of reorganization; 4
K&E 11219194.6

(e) whether the lease or leases represent critical components of the debtors business and reorganization; (f) whether the case is exceptionally complex and involves a large number of leases; and (g) whether the need exists for a judicial determination of whether the lease is a disguised security interest. See South Street Seaport Ltd. Pship v. Burger Boys, Inc. (In re Burger Boys, Inc.), 94 F.3d 755, 761 (2d Cir. 1996); In re Adelphia Commcn Corp., 291 B.R. 283, 293 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2003); Service Merchandise, 256 B.R. at 748 (citing In re Victoria Station, Inc., 88 B.R. 231 (9th Cir. B.A.P. 1988), affd 875 F.2d 1380 (9th Cir. 1989)); In re Ernst Home Center, Inc., 209 B.R. 974, 980 (Bankr. W.D. Wash. 1997); In re Columbus One Parcel Serv., Inc., 138 B.R. 194, 195 (Bankr. S.D. Ohio 1992); In re Perfectlite Co., 116 B.R. 84, 86 (Bankr. N.D. Ohio 1990); In re Wedtech Corp., 72 B.R. 464 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1987). 14. Based on the application of the facts of these cases to the standards set forth

above, good cause exists for the extension of the time within which the Debtors may assume or reject the Leases. 15. In anticipation of the confirmation of the Plan, the Debtors are analyzing all of

their executory contracts and unexpired leases, including the Leases, to determine whether to assume or reject such contracts and leases. Pursuant to the Plan, the Debtors will file a list of all the executory contracts and unexpired leases they seek to assume or reject ten days prior to the hearing on confirmation of the Plan. Until the Debtors have completed the extensive review of their executory contracts and unexpired leases, the Debtors will be unable to determine whether the Leases are necessary to their continued business operations. 16. If the Motion is not granted and the Debtors are therefore precluded from

thoroughly reviewing the Leases in connection with all of their remaining unexpired leases, the Debtors will be at risk of (a) assuming the Leases that they might later discover are unnecessary

5
K&E 11219194.6

or impractical or (b) rejecting the Leases that they might later discover are essential to their business operations going forward. Thus, under the current circumstances of these cases, it would make no economic or practical sense to compel the Debtors to assume or reject the Leases at this time. 17. Additionally, the Becker Lessors are not damaged by the Debtors continued

occupation of the properties covered by the Leases. As of the date of the Motion, the Debtors are complying with their postpetition obligations related to the Leases on a timely basis. As such, the Becker Lessors will not be harmed by an additional extension of the period to assume or reject the Leases. On the other hand, maintenance of the Leases is essential to the Debtors ability to reorganize in a smooth and efficient manner, as relocating from the respective properties would come at a great expense and inconvenience, further complicating the Debtors ability to reorganize effectively. 18. Finally, courts have routinely granted similar relief in other complex multi-debtor

chapter 11 cases. See, e.g., In re Techneglas, Inc., Case No. 04-63788 (JEH) (Bankr. S.D. Ohio April 27, 2005) (granting a six-month extension on the second motion to extend time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property); In re Federal-Mogul Global Inc., Case No. 01-10578 (RTL) (Bankr. D. Del. April 6, 2005) (granting a four-month extension on the eleventh motion to extend time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property); In re Armstrong World Industries Inc., Case No. 00-4471 (JKF) (Bankr. D. Del. Feb. 12, 2004) (granting the sixth extension of time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property to the date of confirmation); In re NRG Energy, Inc., Case No. 0313024 (PCB) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Oct. 16, 2003) (granting the second extension of time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property to the date of confirmation); In re

6
K&E 11219194.6

Global Crossing Ltd., Case No. 02-40188 (REG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. April 17, 2002) (extending time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property to the date of confirmation of a plan of reorganization); In re Adelphia Business Solutions, Case No. 02-11389 (REG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. May 29, 2002) (extending time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property to the date of confirmation of a plan of reorganization); In re Ames Department Stores, Inc., Case No. 01-42217 (REG) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Oct. 3, 2001) (same). 19. Based on the foregoing, the Debtors submit that the circumstances of their

situation weigh in favor of extending the deadline within which the Debtors must determine whether to assume or reject the Leases. The Court should grant the Motion to ensure that the Debtors have the opportunity to make prudent, appropriate decisions with respect to whether they will assume or reject the Leases. Notice 20. Notice of this Motion has been given to the Core Group and Affected Parties as

required by the Case Management Procedures.2 In light of the nature of the relief requested, the Debtors submit that no further notice is required.

Capitalized terms used in this paragraph 20 not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the First Amended Notice, Case Management and Administrative Procedures [Docket No. 294].
