A sports agent, Saudi prince, and a member of the Fugees walk into a hotelit sounds like the start of a joke, but it may be the start of the end for Plaza Hotel owner's financial saga. The motley crew is part of Mirach Capital Group, which is nearing a deal with hotel owner the Sahara Group to refinance its debt. Mirach Capital will lend the hotel $1.55B to retire $900M worth of debt and bail the Sahara Group's CEO out of jail, where he has been since March. [WSJ; previously]
