CHICAGO, May. 12 /PRNewswire/ --

CHICAGO, May 12 /PRNewswire/ -- SIRVA, Inc., a global relocation services provider, announced that its Plan of Reorganization became effective today, ending its Chapter 11 case and marking the Company's emergence from bankruptcy.

SIRVA's Plan of Reorganization is the result of an agreement the Company reached in February with its lenders, who overwhelmingly supported its Plan of Reorganization. SIRVA's exit financing consists of a $215 million senior secured credit facility, which will be used to fund ongoing operations and borrowings. Effective immediately, SIRVA will become a private company, and its stock will no longer be publicly traded.
