ordinary course operations without interruption, the Company is
seeking approval from the Bankruptcy Court of a variety of first
day motions seeking certain relief and authorizing the Company
and its subsidiaries to maintain their operations in the ordinary
course. Bankruptcy Court filings and other information related to

Also to the terms of the RSA, on June 18, 2017 the Company
filed a Prepackaged Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization
(the Plan) with the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan implements a new
senior secured exit financing facility and the issuance of new
second lien secured notes in consideration of a capital
infusion of up to $40 million to refinance or exchange the
existing first lien secured claims and to provide working
capital for the reorganized Company. The Plan also deleverages
the Debtors balance sheet by exchanging approximately $200
million of the existing second lien notes and third lien notes
for new common stock in the reorganized Company and certain
convertible new second lien secured notes, together with
certain cash distributions. All of the existing equity
interests in the Company will be extinguished, but holders of
such equity interests will have the opportunity to receive a
20% share of new common stock in the reorganized Company,
subject to dilution, as part of a settlement encompassed in the
Plan. Allowed general unsecured claims and all creditors who
are unimpaired under the Plan will receive a complete recovery.
