Motorola looses Iridium loan court case

The banking group, J.P. Morgan Chase has won a court case
and forced Motorola to pay a US$300 million guaranty that
was part of a US$800 million loan to the Iridium satellite
company. U.S. District Judge Alvin H. Hellerstein agreed with
Chase that Motorola had effective control of Iridium and had
mislead investors over Iridium's revenues when the loan was
granted. At the time, Motorola held 18% of the company,
although it had designed the satellite system. Hellerstein said
"There is no right on the part of Motorola to be excused from
its obligation to provide its guaranty," Chase was the lead
lender in the 17 bank group that issued the Iridium loan, of
which US$710 million is still outstanding.
