This happens in case of a company which is undergoing internal reconstruction. If the company does not have enough money to pay outside liabilities, creditors and shareholders may agree to give a part of the claim to ensure that the company continues. You will understand this in more detail in Advanced Accounting - Internal Reconstruction.
