Ways to screw the bonds in a restructuring

What are a few examples of things you could look for in bond (or loan) docs if you're advising the debtor in a restructuring?

One example might be what's the % consent required for a covenant waiver / strip? You could then buy that amount of bonds, strip the RP test and pay all your cash out of the restricted group.. correct?

Any other examples / things to look for?
