To enhance its liquidity after emerging from its current Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and to satisfy a closing condition mutually agreed to by the Registrant and Luxor Capital Group, LP during the course of negotiating definitive documentation of the previously announced $184 million of exit financing, the Registrant will file an amendment to its Chapter 11 joint plan of reorganization which provides for, among other things, the Registrant to raise $15 million of additional capital in the form of (i) indebtedness that would be subordinated to the $184 million of exit financing; (ii) equity; or (iii) a combination of subordinated debt and equity.  There can be no assurance that the additional capital will be successfully raised or that the amended plan will be consummated.

 

The Registrant’s financial advisor, Imperial Capital, LLC (485 Lexington Ave., 28th Floor, New York, NY 10017, phone: 212-351-9719) is assisting the Registrant in evaluating capital markets alternatives.
