On the effective date of the Final Plan (the “Effective Date”), all interests in the Company consisting of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company will be cancelled and any certificated or electronic shares representing such shares will become null, void and of no force or effect. In accordance with the terms of the Final Plan, on the Effective Date, the Company will issue 100 new shares of common stock to the Liquidating Trust to be held in accordance with the terms of the Final Plan.

The Company anticipates that the Effective Date will be on or around October 4, 2011. The Effective Date will be designated on the Notice of Effective Date (as defined in the Final Plan) filed in accordance with the Final Plan. The Notice of Effective Date to be filed by the Debtors shall (i) state that all conditions to the occurrence of the Effective Date have been satisfied or waived with the consent of the official committees appointed pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Case, (ii) specify the Effective Date and (iii) set forth the name, address, email address and telephone number of the Liquidating Trustee (as defined in the Final Plan).

On the Effective Date, the Debtors will deliver all of the Liquidating Trust Assets (as defined in the Final Plan) to the Liquidating Trust for the beneficial interest of holders of allowed claims and interests under the Final Plan. Additionally, on the Effective Date, the Hercules Common Stock will continue to be held pursuant to an escrow agreement on behalf of the Debtors for later distribution to holders of allowed claims and interests under the Final Plan. Thereafter, (i) the Liquidating Trustee will make all distributions of cash to the holders of allowed claims and interests, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Final Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement (as defined in the Final Plan) and (ii) the escrow agent, on behalf of the Debtors, will make all distributions of Hercules Common Stock to the holders of allowed claims and interests, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of the Final Plan.

As of the close of business on the Effective Date, the Interests Register (as defined in the Final Plan) will be prepared. The Company’s transfer agent charged with maintaining the record of registered holders of equity interests in the Company shall, in conjunction with the cancellation of the outstanding equity interests of the Company, prepare a list of all such holders, and the number of shares held as of the Effective Date, and shall forward that list to the Plan Agent (as defined in the Final Plan) for inclusion in the Interests Register. The listing of such former registered holders of equity interests in the Company, including former holders of the Company’s common stock who held equity interests in their own name, shall represent only the right of such holder to receive distributions in accordance with the Final Plan on account of the canceled equity interests. The former holders of the Company’s common stock who held equity interests in their own name may transfer those rights by notifying the Plan Agent of such transfer.

On the Effective Date, The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in conjunction with the cancellation of the equity interests of the Company, will prepare a list of all holders of such interests shown on the records of DTC as of the Effective Date, forward that list to the Plan Agent for inclusion in the Interests Register and establish an “escrow CUSIP” number or numbers representing the shares held by the former holders of Interests which escrow CUSIP number(s) shall represent only the right of such holder to receive distributions on account of the canceled Interests (an “Escrow CUSIP Interest”). The holders of rights in the Escrow CUSIP Interests, including former beneficial owners of the Company’s common stock, may transfer those rights.

As of September 29, 2011, the Company had 12,582,455 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. No shares are reserved for future issuance in respect of claims and interests filed and allowed under the Final Plan.

The assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of August 31, 2011 are set forth in the unaudited monthly operating report for the period from August 1, 2011 to August 31, 201 (the “Monthly Operating Report”), filed by the Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court, and furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), on September 30, 2011.

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report contains consolidated information regarding the Debtors and does not contain information regarding the non-Debtor subsidiaries of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly Operating Report was not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, was prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, except as otherwise noted in the Monthly Operating Report, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and is subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Monthly Operating Report is

complete. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

Item 3.03. Material Modification to the Rights of Security Holders.

Pursuant to the Final Plan, all outstanding equity interests of the Company, including but not limited to all outstanding shares of common stock, are cancelled and extinguished on the Effective Date.

Item 5.01. Change in Control of the Registrant.

Easter, will cease to be directors or officers of the Company on the Effective Date. On the Effective Date, the trustee of the Liquidating Trust will be appointed the sole officer and director of the Company.
