XI. QUESTIONNAIRE


	No	Yes
1. Has the debtor-in-possession made any payments on its pre-petition unsecured debt, except as have been authorized by the court? If “Yes”, explain below:	x


	No	Yes

2. Has the debtor-in-possession during this reporting period provided compensation or remuneration to any officers, directors, principals, or other insiders without appropriate authorization? If “Yes”, explain below:	x


3. State what progress was made during the reporting period toward filing a plan of reorganization:

The Debtor has negotiated the terms of a liquidating chapter 11 plan with its principal creditor, Wilmington Trust Company as Trustee for the bulk of its debt. That plan was filed with the Court on October 1, 2010. On November 12, 2010, the Debtor filed its disclosure statement and a motion seeking an order of the Court approving the same and setting plan solicitation and confirmation procedures. Based on the ballots received after solicitation of acceptances for the plan, the Debtor was unable to seek confirmation of the plan as filed. The Debtor continues to explore options for a consensual plan in its case, including through negotiations with certain dissenting bondholders. A status conference on the Debtor’s plan efforts has been set for December 21, 2011.

4. Describe potential future developments which may have a significant impact on the case:
There is a potential refund of over $90 million relating to loss carrybacks from earlier tax years. The FDIC, in its capacity as Receiver for the Debtor’s bank subsidiary, has submitted a proof of claim which, among other things, claims that the FDIC is entitled to some or all of any such tax refund and may have other super priority claims. If the FDIC’s claim is successful, it will reduce or potentially eliminate any assets available for distribution to general unsecured creditors. The Debtor reserves its rights with respect to any such claims by the FDIC.

Debtor continues to investigate potential claims against third parties to determine potential for recovery. No Committee of Unsecured Creditors has been appointed in the case. However, the Debtor continues to work and communicate cooperatively with Wilmington Trust, its principal unsecured creditor, concerning all aspects of the case.

5. Attach copies of all Orders granting relief from the automatic stay that were entered duing the reporting period.
