Debtor's assets. Distribution to creditors would be made in accordance with the priorities <br />established by the Code. See "ACCEPTANCE OF THE PLAN AND CONFIRMATION- <br />-BEST INTEREST TEST" for a more complete description of the possible consequences <br />of a Chapter 7 liquidation on the distributions to the various creditor and interest classes. <br />The Chapter 11 Trustee does not believe that Chapter 7 would be of any benefit to either <br />secured or unsecured creditors because a Chapter 7 liquidation would increase the costs <br />which would need to be paid before amounts were distributed to creditors and because <br />liquidation would result in payments to creditors that would be less than proposed in the <br />Plan. <br />C. Other Plans. <br />Other parties in interest may propose alternative Chapter 11 plans. No party has <br />indicated any desire to propose a competing plan and the Chapter 11 Trustee thinks it <br />unlikely that any alternative plan could be proposed that would be more beneficial to <br />creditors than this Plan. Therefore, the Chapter 11 Trustee does not view the " other plan" <br />option as reasonable or likely. <br />D. CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN. <br />THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN <br />SIGNIFICANT FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN THAT <br />AFFECT OR THAT MAY AFFECT THE HOLDERS OF ALLOWED CLAIMS AND <br />INTERESTS. UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED, THIS DISCUSSION DOES NOT <br />ADDRESS THE PARTICULAR FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES THAT <br />MAY BE RELEVANT TO CERTAIN TYPES OF TAXPAYERS SUBJECT TO <br />SPECIAL TREATMENT UNDER THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS, NOR DOES <br />IT DISCUSS ANY ASPECTS OF STATE, LOCAL. FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX LAWS. <br />THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS MAY <br />VARY BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES OF EACH HOLDER. <br />MOREOVER, THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE PLAN <br />ARE UNCERTAIN DUE TO THE LACK OF APPLICABLE LEGAL PRECEDENT <br />AND THE POSSIBILITY OF CHANGES IN THE LAW. EXCEPT AS DESCRIBED <br />HEREIN, THE DEBTOR HAS NOT APPLIED FOR OR OBTAINED FROM THE <br />INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ANY RULING S OR AGREEMENTS WITH <br />RESPECT TO ANY OF THE TAX ASPECTS OF THE PLAN AND NO OPINION OF <br />COUNSEL HAS BEEN REQUESTED OR OBTAINED BY THE DEBTOR WITH <br />RESPECT THERETO. THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE INTERNAL <br />REVENUE SERVICE WILL NOT CHALLENGE CERTAIN OF THE TAX <br />CONSEQUENCES DESCRIBED HEREIN, OR THAT SUCH A CHALLENGE, IF <br />ASSERTED, WOULD NOT BE SUSTAINED. ACCORDINGLY. EACH HOLDER OF <br />A CLAIM OR INTEREST IS STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT WITH HIS OWN <br />TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR <br />OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN. <br />20 <br />
