Dynegy Inc (DYN: Quote) announced Friday that it has received approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for its amended and restated settlement agreement that was executed on May 30, 2012 with all of its major creditor constituencies, including holders of a significant portion of DH's senior notes, certain lease certificate holders and holders of a majority of its outstanding subordinated notes.

Creditors who are parties to the settlement agreement hold over $2.7 billion of claims against Dynegy's subsidiary, Dynegy Holdings, LLC or DH.

Dynegy stated that the amended and restated settlement agreement resolves all disputes, claims and causes of action between and among DH, Dynegy and the settling parties, with respect to the matters therein.

Dynegy said it expects to file an amended plan of reorganization and related disclosure statement for DH in the near future, which will be subject to a formal creditor vote and confirmation by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

Dynegy Holdings, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries filed for bankruptcy protection as of November 7 last year. In December, the company filed a proposed Plan of Reorganization for the unit with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

Stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the trading day on Friday, more than offsetting the weakness seen on Thursday. In a reversal from the previous session, the markets benefited from some upbeat U.S. economic data as well as comments from a Federal Reserve official. The major averages saw further upside going into the close, with the Dow and the S&P 500 reaching new record highs. As the IRS targeting scandal continues to make headlines, animal-protection charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, claims that conservative groups are not the only ones that have faced increased scrutiny from the agency. While the IRS targeting scandal has taken center stage on Capitol Hill on Friday, the results of a new Gallup poll showed that the American public's interest in the story is comparatively low based on historical measures. The poll showed that 54 percent of Americans are following the news that the IRS targeted conservative groups for greater scrutiny "very" or "somewhat" closely.
