The Plan provides, among other things, that on its effective date: (a) all equity interests of the Debtors will be deemed cancelled and will be of no further force and effect; (b) title to all property of the Debtors estates will pass to and vest in a liquidating trust, from which general unsecured creditors will receive a pro rata distribution from remaining available cash after payment of all post-confirmation expenses and allowed administrative, priority and secured claims; (c) the directors and officers of the Debtors will be deemed to have resigned or been terminated; and (d) the Debtors will be deemed liquidated and dissolved as legal entities. The effective date of the Plan is January 26, 2012.
Following the effective date of the Plan, the Company will file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide notice of the suspension of its reporting obligations under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Upon filing a Form 15, the Company will immediately cease filing any further periodic or current reports under the Exchange Act.
