In connection with the Plan, (i) all common shares and vested share rights of the Company that were outstanding prior to the Effective Date (collectively, the "Old Common Shares") were cancelled and (ii) new common shares of the Company, as reorganized ("New Common Shares"), were issued to holders of such Old Common Shares under the Final Plan on a one-for-one basis, subject to a 6.165% escrow as contemplated in the Plan. |
