Add interest rate swap expense to Earnings?

I am working on doing a debt restructuring model for a company and want to know if I can add the Interest Rate Swap expense back ( as interest )to my earnings since it would be wiped out with the debt restructuring.

It would be adding 5,000,000 to my EBITDA

Anyone do this before? It makes my numbers that much more compelling to the new creditors.

Thanks in advance

 

you should keep in mind that the swap will crystallise, become pari with seniors and then you'll have to take out a new swap for the (probably smaller) new floating debt, but swap costs may be higher (but most likely not as most swaps these days are so out of the money because they locked in at 4%)..
