 of the reorganized Company to a group of initial investors named therein (the &quot;Investors&quot;).</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The Proposal will terminate if, on or before August 16, 2007, (x) the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern

 authorizing the Company to enter into the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement, (y) the Company has not entered into the
 Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement or (z) any of the Investors determines in its sole discretion that any of the
 conditions contained in the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement are incapable of being satisfied or that any of the
 Investors is entitled to exercise a termination right under the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Assuming that the Proposal does not terminate, it is anticipated that, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the
