Facts
D entered into two license agreements with P, wherein P granted to D the right to exploit patents and patent applications. D filed for Chapter 11 but before the filing D entered into a merger agreement with Mpath. They contemplated the filing of the bankruptcy, followed by a reorganization via a 'reverse triangular merger' involving Mpath, MPCAT Acquisition Corporation (MPCAT), and D. MPCAT would merge into D, leaving D as the surviving entity. D's creditors and equity holders would have received approximately $14 million in cash, notes, and securities. D would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mpath. The creditors and equity holders accepted the plan by the majorities required by the Bankruptcy Code. D filed a motion seeking to assume some 140 executory contracts and leases, including the P's licenses. P objected. The bankruptcy court granted the motion and approved the reorganization plan. The district court affirmed. P appealed.
