THE J.G. WENTWORTH COMPANY (OTCMKTS:JGWE) Files An 8-K Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

During the months of February and March 2017, Orchard Acquisition
Company, LLC (together with its ultimate parent The J.G.
Wentworth Company and their respective consolidated subsidiaries,
the Company) entered into separate Confidentiality Agreements
(NDAs) with certain of its lenders, or investment managers
thereof, as applicable (collectively, the Lenders), under that
certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2013, among the
Company and certain of its affiliates, Jefferies Finance LLC, as
administrative agent, and each of the lenders from time to time
party thereto (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise
modified from time to time, the Credit Agreement), to engage in
discussions regarding a pro-active and consensual deleveraging of
the Companys balance sheet to ultimately achieve greater
operational flexibility and improved equity value (a Possible
Transaction).
to the NDAs, the Company agreed to publicly disclose any material
non-public information disclosed to the Lenders, upon the
occurrence of certain events or upon the passage of a date
certain, as set forth in each of the NDAs. The Company initiated
discussions with certain Lenders under NDA regarding a Possible
Transaction with a structure substantially consistent with the
terms set forth on Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated into this
Item 7.01 by reference. Discussions with certain of such Lenders
have continued, and the Company proposed an alternative structure
for a Possible Transaction substantially consistent with the
terms set forth on Exhibit 99.2, which is incorporated into this
Item 7.01 by reference. The Company and the Lenders have not, to
date, reached an agreement on the terms of a Possible
Transaction. Nonetheless, the Company intends to continue to
engage its Lenders on the terms of either structure and continue
to solicit additional support for a Possible Transaction
containing either of such terms from the broader Lender group.
Discussions between individual Lenders or a group of Lenders are
expected to continue, and the Company undertakes no obligation to
disclose the existence or nature of such discussions until an
agreement has been reached between the parties.
The information set forth in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on
Form 8-K, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 attached hereto, is
furnished to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed filed
for any other purpose, including for purposes of Section 18 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), or
otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.
This information shall not be deemed to be incorporated by
reference into any filing of the registrant under the Securities
Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act regardless of any general
incorporation language in such filing.
Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K may
constitute forward-looking statements. All statements, other than

under the heading Risk Factors in our filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, and as set forth more fully under Part
1, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2016, and in our other filings made
with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material
