The properties will still be subject to a marketing and sales process in which higher bids from third parties can be accepted.<\/p>\n<p>The terms provide for a maximum breakup fee of $26 million and up to $2 million in reimbursement of expenses.  Old Dominion (NASDAQ: ODFL) requires a 5% deposit.  The bid will remain valid for 180 days.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday&#8217;s court action also identified the bankruptcy financing lenders.<\/p>\n<p>Hedge funds Citadel and MFN Partners will provide $142.5 million in debtor-in-possession (DIP) financing, which will give the Yellow estate the funds to liquidate the assets.
