Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
The Reporting have Persons acquired the securities disclosed herein based on the Reporting Persons' belief that the securities are undervalued and represent an attractive investment opportunity.
The Issuer has now filed for bankruptcy protection twice in rapid succession which creates a serious lack of confidence in current management. Since the Issuer is now a serial bankruptcy petition filer, the Reporting Persons are concerned that the value of the equity will be eroded or extinguished through mismanagement. The Reporting Persons believe that to preserve shareholder value the Issuer should now be merged with another carrier or sold.
The Reporting Persons have requested the U.S. Trustee's Office move to seek the appointment of an examiner ("Examiner") pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 1104 to investigate management's failures, all insider conduct, and to determine whether there were any potential improprieties by the Issuer. The Reporting Persons believe that neither the Issuer, as debtor-in- possession, nor any official unsecured creditors committee would be well-suited to investigate the Issuer and its insiders. The Reporting Persons note that an Examiner would be required to publicly report its findings, which would provide much-needed transparency, while the Issuer and any such committee would not be required to do so.
Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor from time to time (i) to increase or decrease its position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of securities of the Issuer on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge its economic exposure to the securities of the Issuer without affecting its beneficial ownership.
Except as otherwise disclosed in this Item 4 or the Presentation, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a periodic basis and may from time to time engage in discussions with management and the Board and other shareholders and potential shareholders of the Issuer concerning, among other things, the business, operations and future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the securities of the Issuer, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, making proposals concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure, Board composition or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional securities of the Issuer, selling some or all of its securities of the Issuer, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the securities of the Issuer becoming involved in bankruptcy proceedings, or changing its intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in this Item 4. | ||
