The court-approved plan also authorized the issuance of $40.25 million in seven-year secured notes bearing interest at 10% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, and $15.25 million in 10-year secured notes bearing interest 8% per annum. It also sets aside about $607,000 in secured notes and slightly more than 68,000 shares of the new common stock to cover unsettled claims.

The new Board of Directors of the reorganized Company consists of seven members as follows: Leonard Tannenbaum, Andre Dimitriadis, W. Andrew Adams (chairman), Matthew Patrick, Mark Holliday, Richard Ladd and Wm. James Nicol, the chief executive officer of the Company.
