SLIGHTS, Vice Chancellor

This decision settles the latest conflict in this near decade-old litigation 

between The Renco Group, Inc. (“Renco”) and MacAndrews AMG Holdings LLC 

(“MacAndrews AMG”) regarding the proper construction of perhaps the most 

intensely contested contract in the history of litigation—the Limited Liability 

Company Agreement of AM General Holdings LLC (“Holdco”), or “Holdco 

Agreement.”1 On March 23, 2020, MacAndrews AMG amended its complaint to 

ask this Court for an order declaring that the Holdco Agreement does not give Renco 

a right to consent to a sale of the Capital Stock of Holdco’s primary asset, 

AM General LLC (“AM General”). It has now moved for judgment on the pleadings 

with respect to this declaration.

After carefully considering the matter, I agree with MacAndrews AMG that the 

Holdco Agreement unambiguously does not grant Renco a consent right. 

MacAndrews AMG’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings, therefore, must be 

granted. 

I. BACKGROUND

I have drawn the facts from the pleadings and from the Holdco Agreement 

itself, which has been incorporated by reference in the pleadings.3

A. The Consent Right Dispute

MacAndrews AMG began actively pursuing a sale of AM General in 

September 2018.4 On February 8, 2019, Renco moved for a preliminary injunction

that would require MacAndrews AMG to provide Renco with thirty days’ notice 

before any sale of AM General to allow Renco sufficient time to assert its purported 

consent right.5 Without adjudicating the merits of the claim, and as a means to 

preserve the status quo and allow orderly litigation of the consent issue, I entered an 

order on March 27, 2019, requiring MacAndrews AMG to give Renco ten days’ 

 

3 SSAC ¶ 2.

4 SSAC ¶ 5. 

5 D.I. 692. 
3

notice before signing any binding deal to sell AM General.6 That order remains in 

place.7

In early November 2019, MacAndrews AMG informed Renco that it had 

found a buyer interested in purchasing all of the Capital Stock of AM General, and 

provided Renco with proposed sale materials.8 Renco again asserted it had a right 

to consent to any sale; and MacAndrews AMG again refused to assure Renco it 

would solicit that consent.9 MacAndrews AMG alleges this disagreement over 

Renco’s consent right is impeding a sale of AM General and has asked this Court to 

resolve the issue.10

B. The Relevant Provisions of the Holdco Agreement 

According to the Holdco Agreement, MacAndrews AMG, as Managing 

Member of Holdco, has “the right, power and authority, in the management of the 

business and affairs of [Holdco], to do or cause to be done any and all acts . . .

deemed by the Managing Member to be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the 

 

6 D.I. 711. 

7 MacAndrews AMG’s SSAC also requests this Court vacate that order. SSAC at 10.

business, purposes and objectives of Holdco . . . .”11 This wide-ranging, 

discretionary authority is specifically limited by Section 6.4 of the Holdco 

Agreement, which lists matters the Managing Member may not pursue or undertake 

without having first obtained Renco’s consent.12 The current dispute is centered on 

the applicability and construction of two such limitations.13 

First, Section 6.4(a) requires Renco’s consent for “any voluntary sale . . . of 

[Holdco] (including the Capital Stock of any of its Subsidiaries (other than GEP)) 

not in the Ordinary Course of Business . . . .”14 Second, Section 6.4(c) requires 

Renco’s consent for any “AM General Major Decision.”15 AM General Major 

Decision is defined in Section 1.1 of the Agreement, which provides, in part, that a 

AM General Major Decision includes an “AM General Extraordinary Event.”

16

 

AM General Extraordinary Event, in turn, is defined, in relevant part, as “(ii) the sale 

 

11 Ex. A to Renco’s Verified Answer and Countercl. to MacAndrews’ Supplement to 

Second Am. Compl. (“Holdco Agreement”) § 6.2. 

12 Holdco Agreement § 6.4. 

13 Renco’s consent is also required before the Managing Member may dissolve or liquidate 

Holdco. Holdco Agreement § 6.4(f). For reasons explained below, this limitation on the 

Managing Member’s discretion is not applicable here. 

14 Holdco Agreement § 6.4(a). 

15 Holdco Agreement § 6.4(c). 

16 Holdco Agreement § 1.1 at 9–10. 
5

to a Person(s) that is neither (x) a Member nor (y) an Affiliate of AM General . . . of 

a majority of the Capital Stock of AM General . . . .”17 

Importantly, an AM General Extraordinary Event is not an AM General Major 

Decision if it occurs “at any time after December 31, 2013 on terms that are no less 

favorable to [Renco] than to [MacAndrews AMG].”18 Put more directly, a sale of 

all of the Capital Stock of AM General occurring after December 31, 2013, on terms

that treat Renco and MacAndrews AMG equally, will not constitute an AM General 

Major Decision and will not, therefore, trigger MacAndrews AMG’s obligation to 

obtain Renco’s consent.

19

 

C. The Parties’ Competing Views of Section 6.4

MacAndrews AMG argues the proposed sale is governed by Section 6.4(c) of 

the Holdco Agreement.20 Specifically, it argues the proposed sale is unambiguously 

an “AM General Extraordinary Event” because it is a sale of “the majority of the 

Capital Stock of AM General . . . .”21 Importantly, under MacAndrews AMG’s 

construction, this particular AM General Extraordinary Event (the proposed sale of

6

AM General) is not an AM General Major Decision requiring Renco’s consent 

because the sale will occur after December 31, 2013, on terms no less favorable to 

Renco than to MacAndrews AMG.22 In this regard, MacAndrews AMG has 

represented to Renco that all funds from any sale will be distributed to the parties as 

required under the Holdco Agreement’s waterfall provisions—with no side 

arrangement that will benefit MacAndrews AMG or any of its affiliates—meaning 

that, by definition, the sale will be no more favorable to MacAndrews AMG than to 

Renco. 

Renco counters that any sale of AM General is governed by either of two 

provisions, both of which require Renco’s consent. First, Section 6.4(a) is 

implicated because the proposed sale involves the sale of the Capital Stock of a 

Holdco subsidiary.23 In this regard, Renco points out that Section 6.4(a) specifically 

carves-out a sale of the stock of AM General’s engine manufacturing subsidiary, 

General Engine Products, LLC (“GEP”), from the consent requirement, but contains 

no such carve out for AM General.24 According to Renco, this omission underscores

that, if the parties had intended to allow MacAndrews AMG to sell AM General 

without Renco’s consent, they knew how to write that exception specifically into

 

22 Id. 

23 Renco’s Opp’n to MacAndrews’ Mot. for J. on the Pleadings (“AB”) 8–14. 

24 Holdco Agreement § 6.4(a).
7

their agreement.

25

 Its absence, says Renco, is dispositive. Separately, Renco 

contends that any sale of AM General will result in the liquidation of Holdco, which 

requires Renco’s consent under Section 6.4(f).26 According to Renco, either of these 

provisions, at least, create an ambiguity in the Holdco Agreement when considered 

against MacAndrews AMG’s proffered construction, thereby precluding judgment 

on the pleadings.27 

In the alternative, Renco argues that if this Court were to hold that 

Section 6.4(c) unambiguously governs whether MacAndrews AMG must solicit 

Renco’s consent prior to a sale of AM General, then that Section must also be 

construed to give Renco an implied right to receive information regarding the sale 

before closing.

28

 As Renco sees it, this is the only way it can assess whether the 

transaction is on terms “no less favorable” to Renco than to MacAndrews AMG, as 

required by MacAndrews AMG’s construction of Section 6.4(c).

29

 

MacAndrews AMG responds that Renco’s arguments ignore the well-settled 

canon of construction that, where a specific contractual provision conflicts with a 

 

25 AB 10–11. 

26 AB 14–15. 

27 AB 12–13. 

28 AB 16.

29 Id.

general provision, the specific provision governs.30 Section 6.4(a), it argues, is a 

general provision covering asset sales in the abstract, while the definitions embedded 

in Section 6.4(c) specifically address the sale of the majority of AM General’s 

Capital Stock after a particular point in time.

31

 MacAndrews AMG also argues that 

Renco’s construction, whereby Section 6.4(a) grants it a perpetual consent right, 

renders the qualifying language in the definition of AM General Major Decision—

“after December 31, 2013” and “on terms no less favorable to”—surplusage, in 

violation of another settled canon of contract construction.

32

 According to 

MacAndrews AMG, upon applying these canons, the Court must conclude that the 

operative provisions of the Holdco Agreement are unambiguous and must, therefore, 

grant judgment on the pleadings.33

II. ANALYSIS

After the pleadings are closed, Court of Chancery Rule 12(c) allows a party 

to move for judgment on the pleadings.

34

 In reviewing a motion under Rule 12(c), 

this court “is required to view the facts pleaded and the inferences to be drawn from 

 

30 OB 11. 

31 OB 10. 

32 OB 15. 

33 OB 8–10. 

34 Ct. Ch. R. 12(c). 
9

such facts in a light most favorable to the non-moving party.”

35 With deference to 

the non-movant in mind, “judgment on the pleadings is a proper framework for 

enforcing unambiguous contracts because there is no need to resolve material 

disputes of fact . . . . If the contract's meaning is unambiguous, the court must grant 

judgment on the pleadings in favor of the moving party.”

36

 

When construing a contract, the court must be mindful that “[a]mbiguity does 

not exist simply because the parties disagree about what the contract means.”37 

Instead, contracts are ambiguous only when the provisions at issue are “reasonably 

or fairly susceptible of different interpretations or may have two or more different 

meanings.”38 

A. The Relevant Language of the Holdco Agreement is Unambiguous

The overarching theme of Renco’s opposition to the Motion is that it would 

be incongruous for the Court to find the Holdco Agreement provisions relevant to 

Renco’s claimed consent right are unambiguous after it has already determined that 

nearly every other provision of the contract that the parties have disputed over many

years of litigation was susceptible to competing reasonable constructions.39 While I 

certainly understand (and have lived) Renco’s frustration with the parties’ inability 

to make sense of what they agreed to, in this instance, the Holdco Agreement 

actually makes sense on its face. 

When this Court has previously found ambiguity in the Holdco Agreement, 

that finding followed a determination that both parties had proffered reasonable 

constructions of the same provisions.

40

 In opposing this Motion, Renco is not 

claiming that ambiguity results from differing, reasonable constructions of the same 

provisions. Rather, it has disagreed with MacAndrews AMG as to which of separate

provisions of the Holdco Agreement unambiguously governs the current proposed 

sale of AM General.

41

 In other words, resolution of this dispute does not turn on 

competing constructions of the same provision, but on a determination of which of 

 

39 D.I. 918 Oral Arg. on the MacAndrews Parties’ Mot. for J. on the Pleadings (“OA”) 28

(“[Counsel for MacAndrews AMG] said repeatedly—I didn’t count the number of times. 

I should have. But the number of times he used precision, clarity, clear; if there’s one thing 

we know from 15 years of litigation over this Holdco Agreement, it contains none of 

that.”); OA 29 (“We had a trial with respect to claims, arguments, ambiguity arguments 

that were far weaker than the one presented here . . . .”). 

40 See, e.g., Renco Gp., 2015 WL 394011, at *5 (finding each party had proffered a 

reasonable construction of “AM General Major Decision,” “asset,” “Ordinary Course of 

Business,” and “affiliate”); AM Gen. Hldgs., 2017 WL 2167193, at *4–6 (finding each 

party had offered a reasonable construction of Section 9.4(c) and the mechanisms provided 

in Section 8.3 to enforce Section 9.4(c)’s prohibitory language.).

41 OA 31–33. 
11

potentially competing, unambiguous provisions applies. To resolve this dispute, 

I turn to well-settled canons of contract construction. 

“Specific language in a contract controls over general language, and where 

specific and general provisions conflict, the specific provision ordinarily qualifies 

the meaning of the general one.”42 Likewise, it is firmly established that this Court 

should “interpret contracts as a whole . . . [to] give each provision and term effect, 

so as not to render any part of the contract mere surplusage, and [] not read a contract 

to render a provision or term meaningless or illusory.”43 And, while our Supreme 

Court has recognized “that contracts should be ‘read in full and situated in the 

commercial context between the parties,’ the background facts cannot be used to 

alter the language chosen by the parties within the four corners of their agreement.”44

(Del. 2017)). 
12

Section 6.4(a) gives Renco a consent right for a broad range of transactions, 

including the sale of “the Capital Stock of any of [Holdco’s] subsidiaries . . . .”45 

The Holdco Agreement, however, at Section 6.4(c), specifically carves-out from this 

consent right the sale of “the majority of the Capital Stock of AM General” after 

December 31, 2013, as long as the sale is on terms “no less favorable to” Renco.

46

 

At first glance, these provisions appear to be in conflict. But settled canons of 

construction allow for harmony. The language referring to the sale of “the majority 

of the Capital Stock of AM General” after a certain date on defined terms

specifically and clearly addresses the sale of AM General that MacAndrews AMG

is currently pursuing. The sale, as proposed, is of the majority of AM General’s 

capital stock, it will close after December 31, 2013, and it is, at least as described, 

on terms no less favorable to Renco than to MacAndrews AMG.47 The specific 

provision (Section 6.4(c)), therefore, applies; the general provision (Section 6.4(a)), 

to the extent it might apply, must give way.

48

Additionally, Renco’s proffered construction would render parts of the 

AM General Major Decision definition meaningless. If Section 6.4(a) were to 

 

45 Holdco Agreement § 6.4(a). 

46 Holdco Agreement §§ 1.1 at 9–10, 6.4(c). 

47 SSAC ¶¶ 17–18. 

48 DCV Hldgs., 889 A.2d at 961. 
13

govern all sales of the Capital Stock of AM General, then the December 31, 2013 

cut-off date, and the “on terms that are no less favorable to” qualifier, within the 

definition of AM General Major Decision would have no purpose. Whether a sale 

was before or after the cut-off date, and no matter the terms of the sale, Renco, by 

its lights, would have a consent right under Section 6.4(a). This Court will, when 

possible, not read a contract in a manner that will “render a provision or term 

meaningless or illusory.”49 That canon applies in full force here.

Turning to Renco’s “liquidation” argument, Renco is correct that the Holdco 

Agreement does unambiguously provide it with a right to consent to Holdco’s 

liquidation.

50

 But that is not what MacAndrews AMG is pursuing here—it proposes 

to sell AM General’s Capital Stock, not to liquidate Holdco.51 No provision of the 

Holdco Agreement would automatically trigger Holdco’s liquidation after 

AM General is sold. If MacAndrews AMG does decide to liquidate Holdco after 

the sale, Renco would then have a right to consent to that process, but not until that 

decision is made. 

Last, Renco argues that MacAndrews AMG’s proffered construction—

whereby Renco’s consent would be required for a sale of one of AM General’s 

 

49 In re Shorenstein, 213 A.3d at 56.

14

subsidiaries, but not AM General itself—is nonsensical, and at odds with what 

reasonable parties would have bargained for and what these parties were attempting 

to achieve. To be sure, as noted, this Court ought to consider an agreement’s overall 

scheme or purpose when construing it.

52

 But that consideration does not license a 

judicial rewrite of clear contract terms.53 

Here, the Holdco Agreement is highly bespoke in all aspects, including in its 

governance scheme. And Renco is correct that the Court has been forced to turn to 

extrinsic evidence in several instances to discern the parties’ contractual intent, and

in doing so has considered evidence of what the parties were attempting to achieve 

in the Holdco Agreement. That exercise, however, is not required to construe the 

consent provisions at issue here.54 Against the backdrop of the broad discretion 

afforded MacAndrews AMG as Managing Member, a scheme whereby 

MacAndrews AMG may, on its own, negotiate and consummate a sale of 

AM General after a date certain is not, on its face, nonsensical. More to the point, 

however, the different treatment of sales under Section 6.4(a) and Section 6.4(c) is 

what the Holdco Agreement unambiguously provides for, and to the extent this

(“If a contract is unambiguous, extrinsic evidence may not be used to interpret the intent 

of the parties, to vary the terms of the contract or to create an ambiguity.”).
15

distinction represents a “bad deal” for Renco, it must be remembered that Delaware 

courts “will not rewrite the contract to appease a party who later wishes to rewrite a 

contract he now believes to have been a bad deal. Parties have a right to enter into 

good and bad contracts; the law enforces both.”55 

B. The Holdco Agreement Does Not Create an Implied Information Right

Renco last argues that, even if Section 6.4(c) unambiguously governs the 

proposed sale, that provision must be construed to imply an information right.56 

According to Renco, the Court cannot construe Section 6.4(c) as eliminating

Renco’s consent right while, at the same time, giving MacAndrews AMG the sole 

authority, without question, to determine if a proposed sale is on terms equally fair 

to Renco and MacAndrews AMG.

57

 With this in mind, Renco allows that a preclosing notice requirement, like the one this Court imposed upon MacAndrews 

AMG last year in its status quo order, is the only means by which it will be able to

determine if the proposed transaction is fair in time to act to protect its interests.

58

 

MacAndrews AMG responds that, because of its broad discretionary powers under 

 

55 Nemec v. Shrader, 991 A.2d 1120, 1126 (Del. 2010). 

56 AB 15–19. 

57 AB 16. 

58 Id.
16

Section 6.2, it has sole authority to determine if the transaction falls within the 

Section 6.4(c) carve-out.59

As a practical matter, the parties’ dispute over Renco’s information rights is 

really a dispute over what remedies should be available to Renco if there were a sale 

of AM General on terms that were less favorable to Renco than to MacAndrews 

AMG (e.g., if MacAndrews AMG negotiated some sort of side deal to channel 

consideration in its direction). Renco believes it should be given notice so that it can 

move to enjoin a potentially unfair transaction.

60 MacAndrews AMG responds that

the parties agreed Renco would not have a consent right, made no explicit provision 

for information rights and, therefore, implicitly understood that Renco’s remedy for 

an unfair transaction would likely be limited to a post-closing action for damages.61

The AM General Major Decision carve-out does not specify who is to 

determine if a proposed sale is fair to Renco.62 Without a specific provision on point, 

I turn to the broader allocation of authority under the Holdco Agreement in 

Section 6.2.63 That provision grants MacAndrews AMG, as Managing Member,

17

broad power to manage Holdco in any manner “deemed by the Managing Member 

to be necessary or appropriate . . . .”64 This authority, as mentioned, is limited only 

as specifically enumerated in Section 6.4.65 Having determined Section 6.4 does not 

provide Renco with a consent right or otherwise limit MacAndrews AMG’s 

authority to sell a majority of the Capital Stock of AM General, there is no provision 

in the Holdco Agreement that would limit MacAndrews AMG’s managerial power 

to determine the terms of that sale. If Renco believes MacAndrews AMG has not 

exercised these powers in good faith, or is otherwise troubled by the terms of the

sale, it can pursue its remedies as available.

III. CONCLUSION

Based on the foregoing, MacAndrews AMG’s Motion for Judgment on the 

Pleadings is GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
