Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On June 21, 2010 the Registrant issued a press release announcing that, on June 18, it received the approval of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California for the previously announced financing commitment from an investor in the amount of $184 million to refinance the registrant’s Brightwater development project debt and pay related costs.  The commitment is subject to a $6.44 million breakup fee, which represents 3.5% of the committed financing, in the event the Registrant decides to secure bankruptcy-exit financing from a different lender or seeks court approval of a Chapter 11 plan other than the one the investor has currently committed to finance. The commitment is also conditioned upon the negotiation of definitive documentation and, if successfully documented, the refinanced Brightwater debt will facilitate the Registrant’s exit from its current Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.

 

A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
