The Plan became effective on August 11, 2011 (the “Effective Date”).

~~The~~SIGNATURE Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court and the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101-1532 (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The financial information contained in the Monthly Operating Report is preliminary and unaudited and does not purport to show the financial statements of any of the Debtors in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and, therefore, may exclude items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals and disclosure items. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the Monthly Operating Report. The Monthly Operating Report may be subject to revision. The Monthly Operating Report is in a format required by the Bankruptcy Court and the Bankruptcy Code and should not be used for investment purposes. The information in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

~~CAUTIONARY~~Pursuant ~~STATEMENT~~to ~~REGARDING~~the ~~FORWARD-LOOKING~~requirements ~~STATEMENTS~~ of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

~~Certain~~Date: statements and information in this Form 8-K may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “could” or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on the Company. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be those that it anticipates. The Company’s forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond its control) and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from its historical experience and its present expectations or projections. Important factors that should be considered as potentially causing actual results to differ from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to (i)January the fact that we are currently not conducting business operations and will have no operations in the future; (ii) we are currently winding up the Company’s business and distributing the proceeds of the court-supervised sale of substantially all of our assets27, ~~and~~2012 (iii) even though our common stock may continue to be traded (whether over the counter or on another trading platform), our Chapter 11 plan of liquidation, as confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, provides that holders of our common stock will receive no distributions from the Company. Thus, any trading price of our common stock should not be viewed as indicative of the value of our common stock. The cautionary statements provided above are being made pursuant to the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) and with the intention of obtaining the benefits of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Act for any such forward-looking information. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances, or otherwise.
