It's an INC, not an individual. Just not sure if there is something we need
to do. Case is closed, discharge entered because it's a corporation. Just
wondering if the corp needs to make the creditor payments after it is
purchased. Sounds like the principals selling the biz are going to make the
payments from the monthly purchase payments. Just not sure if this is
proper.

Take a look at 1127(e). If the debtor is an individual, then the plan may be modified any time after confirmation but before completion of payments - the closing of the case may not matter. If I was an unsecured creditor and found out about this sale agreement, I'd move to modify the plan to access the surplus net proceeds of sale above the existing plant payout.

Principals who are selling the debtor, are proposing to make the creditor payments from the payments they receive for the purchase of the Debtor. (The debtor is a trucking company that has several trucks which are security for loans and leases paid according to the CH 11 plan.)
If they were to default, who is liable? They no longer will own the Debtor, but it's the Debtor that has a confirmed plan, not the principals.
I am having trouble wrapping my head around the sale of this debtor and who is really responsible to make the payments under the plan, especially since the purchase of the Debtor is to take place over 3 years and the plan is a 5 year plan.
Do any of you have any post-CH 11 purchase/sale agreements you would like to share?
