Introductory Note

As previously disclosed, on August 13, 2015, the Adelphia Recovery Trust (the “ART”) filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking the cancellation of certain Series of CVV Interests (“Interests”) as part of a staged wind-down process. Cancellation of Series ACC-7 interests will result in the deregistration of the ART as a publicly reporting entity with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Item 8.01 set forth below is incorporated in this Item 3.03 by reference.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On September 10, 2015, the ART submitted an order to the Bankruptcy Court for the cancellation of the Interests and on September 15 at midnight, the period for objection to the order expired.  A copy of the order can be found at the Adelphia Recovery Trust Important Documents tab at adelphiarestructuring.com.  Following the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the order into the docket, which the ART expects to occur on or around September 17, 2015, the ART intends to cancel the Interests and file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 under the Exchange Act requesting the suspension of the ART’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The ART may continue to make certain information, such as periodic reports regarding the results of the ART’s operations, available through the Adelphia Recovery Trust Important Documents tab at adelphiarestructuring.com.  As stated in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed August 14, 2015, the ART discourages trading of the Interests.  The ART continues to discourage trading of the Interests during the period prior to cancelation of the Interests.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information.

This report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements about the intentions of the ART to cancel the Interests and suspend reporting obligations.  When used in this current report, the words “will”, “believe,” “expects,” “may” and “intends” as they relate to the ART or its management are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  No assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. There are various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any such forward-looking statements, many of which are beyond the ART’s control. These factors include but are not limited to: delay in entry of the order, failure to consummate or delay in consummating the cancellation, failure to post information to the ART’s website in the future and changes in laws or regulations. The ART undertakes no obligation (and expressly disclaims any such obligation) to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For additional information please refer to the SEC filings of the ART, including those on Forms 10-K, 10-K/A, 10-Q and 8-K reports filed with the SEC.
