It bid forty million dollars of that to acquire the company. Since there were no other bidders who came forward to challenge the sale, UltraV got to keep the company.
The creditors and their attorneys also received up to three million dollars from the company. Four challenging years for Relativity Media ended with the said court approval. The well-known company faced a new beginning. Ryan Kavanaugh will have an equity interest. That is only if the company reaches a hundred and fifty million dollars valuation.
