| No | Yes | |||||||||

| 3. | State what progress was made during the reporting period toward filing a plan of reorganization: | |||||||||
| The Debtor has negotiated the terms of a liquidating chapter 11 plan with its principal creditor, Wilmington Trust Company as Trustee for the bulk of its debt. That plan was filed with the Court on October 1, 2010. On February 9, 2011, the Court entered its Order approving the Debtor’s Disclosure Statement in connection with the Plan and establishing Plan solicitation procedures. The Debtor has commenced solicitation of acceptances of the Plan in accordance with that Order. | ||||||||||
| 4. | Describe potential future developments which may have a significant impact on the case: | |||||||||
| There is a potential refund of over $90 million relating to loss carrybacks from earlier tax years. The FDIC, in its capacity as Receiver for the Debtor’s bank subsidiary, has submitted a proof of claim which, among other things, claims that the FDIC is entitled to some or all of any such tax refund and may have other super priority claims. If the FDIC’s claim is successful, it will reduce or potentially eliminate any assets available for distribution to general unsecured creditors. The Debtor reserves its rights with respect to any such claims by the FDIC. | ||||||||||
| Debtor continues to investigate potential claims against third parties to determine potential for recovery. No Committee of Unsecured Creditors has been appointed in the case. However, the Debtor continues to work and communicate cooperatively with Wilmington Trust, its principal unsecured creditor, concerning all aspects of the case. | ||||||||||
