Notice of the Time to Accept or Reject a Plan. Notice of the time to accept or reject a plan under Rule 3017(c) must be given in accordance with Rule 3017(d).

When No Request Has Been Filed. Except as § 342(f) provides otherwise, if a creditor or indenture trustee has not filed a request under (1) or Rule 5003(e), the notice must be mailed to the address shown on the list of creditors or schedule of liabilities, whichever is filed later. If an equity security holder has not filed a request, the notice must be mailed to the address shown on the list of equity security holders.

Using an Address Agreed to Between an Entity and a Notice Provider. Notwithstanding (g)(1)–(3), when the court orders that notice be given, the notice provider may do so in the manner agreed to between the provider and an entity, and at the address or addresses the entity supplies. An address supplied by the entity is conclusively presumed to be a proper address. But a failure to use a supplied address does not invalidate a notice that is otherwise effective under applicable law.

Voluntary Case. This paragraph (1) applies in a voluntary Chapter 7 case, or in a Chapter 12 or 13 case. After 70 days following the order for relief under that chapter or the date of the order converting the case to Chapter 12 or 13, the court may direct that all notices required by (a) be mailed only to:

• the debtor;

• the trustee;

• indenture trustees;

• creditors with claims for which proofs of claim have been filed; and

• creditors that are still permitted to file proofs of claim because they have received an extension of time under Rule 3002(c)(1) or (2).

Involuntary Case. In an involuntary chapter 2 7 case, after 90 days following the order for relief, the court may order that all notices required by (a) be mailed only to those entities listed in (1).

When Notice of Insufficient Assets Has Been Given. If notice of insufficient assets to pay a dividend has been given to creditors under (e), after 90 days following the mailing of a notice of the time to file proofs of claim under Rule 3002(c)(5), the court may order that notices be mailed only to those entities listed in (1).

In General. Any notice required to be mailed under this Rule 2002 must also be mailed to a committee elected under § 705 or appointed under § 1102, or to its authorized agent.

Copy to a Committee. A notice required under (a)(1), (a)(5), (b), (f)(1)(B)–(C), or (f)(1)(H)—and any other notice as the court orders—must be sent to a committee appointed under § 1114.

in a case in which the filed documents disclose a stock interest of the United States, to the Secretary of the Treasury at Washington, D.C.

Time to Send. The notice must be sent within the time that (a) or (b) prescribes.

Exception Under the Securities Investor Protection Act. In a case under the Securities Investor Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. § 78aaa et seq., these rules do not require any document to be sent to the United States trustee.

When Notice by Mail Does Not Suffice. At the request of the United States trustee or a party in interest, or on its own, the court may find that a notice mailed to a creditor with a foreign address within the time these rules prescribe would not give the creditor reasonable notice. The court may then order that the notice be supplemented with notice by other means or that the time prescribed for the notice by mail be extended.

Notice of the Time to File a Proof of Claim. Unless the court, for cause, orders otherwise, a creditor with a foreign address must be given at least 30 days’ notice of the time to file a proof of claim under Rule 3002(c) or Rule 3003(c).

Determining a Foreign Address. Unless the court, for cause, orders otherwise, the mailing address of a creditor with a foreign address must be determined under (g).

Timing of the Notice; Who Must Receive It. After a petition for recognition of a foreign proceeding is filed, the court must promptly hold a hearing on it. The clerk or the court’s designee must promptly give at least 21 days’ notice by mail of the hearing to:

• the debtor;

• all persons or bodies authorized to administer the debtor’s foreign proceedings;

• all entities against whom provisional relief is being sought under § 1519;

• all parties to litigation pending in the United States in which the debtor was a party when the petition was filed; and

• any other entities as the court orders.
