BACKGROUND

8. ABH is one of the world's largest publicly traded paper and forest product companies. It produces a wide range of newsprint and commercial printing papers, market pulp and wood products . As at December 31, 2008, the ABH Group employed approximately 15,800 people, approximately 11,300 of which work in ACI's and BI's Canadian operations. The ABH Group owns interests in or operates 35 pulp and paper mills, 24 sawmills (others have been permanently closed), 5 wood products facilities and 32 recycling facilities located in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and South Korea.

9. Incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, ABH functions as a holding company and its business is conducted principally through four direct subsidiaries: BI, Bowater Newsprint South LLC ("Newsprint South") (BI, Newsprint South and their respective subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "BI Group"), ACI (ACI and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the " ACI Group ") and AbitibiBowater US Holding LLC ("ABUSH") (ABUSH and its respective subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "DCorp Group").

-3-

10. ACI is a direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ABH. ABH wholly owns BI which in turn, wholly owns BCHI which, in turn, indirectly owns BCFPI which carries on the main Canadian operations of BI.

11. ACCC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ACI, and BCFPI hold the majority of ABH's Canadian assets and operations.

PURPOSE

12. As set forth in the First Stay Extension Order, the Monitor has undertaken to provide this Honourable Court with regular reports on the Petitioners' cash flows for each four week period following the date of the First Stay Extension Order. This is the ninth report of the Monitor (the "Ninth Report") in the CCAA Proceedings, the purpose of which is to provide to this Honourable Court a report on the Petitioners' four week cash flow results from the period from June 1, 2009 to June 28, 2009 (the "Reporting Period"), and, in addition, to provide details with respect to the following:

TERMS OF REFERENCE

13. In preparing this Ninth Report, the Monitor has been provided with and, in making comments herein, has relied upon unaudited financial information, the ABH Group's books and records, financial information and projections prepared by the ABH Group and discussions with management of the ABH Group (the " Management ").

CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS IN THE FOREST PRODUCTS INDUSTRY

17. As discussed in the Seventh Report, in order to put the Petitioners' cash flow results and revised forecasts in context the Monitor believes that it is useful to provide this Honourable Court with a brief update with respect to significant changes to the state of market conditions in the paper and forest products sector in North America since the date of the Seventh Report.

18. The Seventh Report provided an overview of the major market segments in which the Petitioners operate. Market conditions have remained very challenging and the Petitioners are continuing to experience demand reductions, pricing pressures and a Canadian currency exchange rate that adversely impacts their Canadian operations.

19. Since the date of the Seventh Report, a number of newsprint manufacturers (White Birch Paper Company, Kruger Inc., Tembec Inc. and Catalyst Paper Corporation) have publicly announced price increases of $50 per tonne for newsprint effective August 1, 2009 as reported in a release on RISI.com, a leading forest products research organization. Given the current weakness in the newsprint market it is uncertain what the market reaction to these announced price increases will be, or whether they will hold. The Petitioners have advised their customers that they will not be matching the $50 per tonne price increase on August 1, 2009 as announced by certain of their competitors.

20. The Seventh Report noted several newsprint producers had recently announced temporary production downtime. The Monitor has been advised that since the date of the Seventh Report, Catalyst Paper Corporation and Tembec Inc. have each announced several weeks of production downtime over July and August, 2009 and that Kruger Inc. has announced the indefinite idling (as of October 30, 2009) of a coated paper mill in Trois-Rivières. The Petitioners have advised the Monitor that their temporary production downtime will be approximately 145,000 tonnes for each of the months of July, August and September, 2009. Such downtime is consistent with prior months.

-6-

21. Overall, market conditions remain very poor, which is having a severe impact on all forestry operations, and in particular newsprint operators. As a result, the Petitioners are reviewing their options to reduce costs in this challenging environment.

MONTHLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

22. The ACI Group (including DCorp) and ABH produce monthly unaudited accrual financial statement reports.

23. The table below details certain line items contained in the combined statement of operations for the ACI Group and the ABH Group, respectively, for the months of April and May, 2009:

Unaudited GAAP Financial Results for the ACI Group and ABH
April and May, 2009

	ACI Group	US$ Millions
		April	May
	Sales	168	173
	Operating Income/(Loss)	(41)	(25)
	Net Income/(Loss)	(99)	(43)



	ABH Group	US$ Millions
		April	May
	Sales	343	363
	Operating Income/(Loss)	(23)	(14)
	Net Income/(Loss)	(108)	(49)

24. The Monitor would point out that the above information is unaudited and is subject to adjustment as part of the Petitioners' normal quarterly close process.

25. As reflected in the above table, the ACI Group (including DCorp) incurred substantial operating losses of $99 and $43 million in the months of April and May, 2009. These losses are reflective of the challenging market conditions discussed previously in this Ninth Report.

RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS FROM JUNE 1, 2009 TO JUNE 28, 2009 FOR THE ACI GROUP AND BCFPI

The ACI Group

26. The table below summarizes the ACI Group's (including DCorp) actual receipts and disbursements for the Reporting Period, which is detailed in Appendix "E" of this Ninth Report, with a comparison to the ACI Forecast amounts provided in the Monitor's Seventh Report.

			US$000
			Actual		Forecast		Variance

Receipts			181,760		178,392		3,368

Disbursements			(228,935)		(189,195)		(39,740)

Net Cash Flow		$	(64,638)	$	(19,291)	$	(45,347)

Opening Cash			112,467		110,401		2,066

Ending Cash		$	47,830	$	91,110	$	(43,281)

DIP Availability (net of minimum undrawn balance)			57,500		57,500		-

Available Liquidity		$	105,330	$	148,610	$	(43,281)

27. As demonstrated in the table above, the ACI Group's total receipts for the Reporting Period were $3.4 million (2%) higher than projected in the ACI Forecast and disbursements were $39.7 million (21%) higher than projected in the ACI Forecast. Overall, the ending cash balance was $43.3 million (48%) lower than the ACI Forecast.

-8-

28. Opening cash in the table above has increased due to the fact that the Canadian dollar cash was translated at a rate of CDN$1.00=US$0.80 in the Seventh Report. The table above translates Canadian dollars at a rate of CDN$1.00=US$0.90.

Receipts

29. A breakdown of the receipts for the Reporting Period are outlined in the table below:

			US$000
Receipts	Para.		Actual		Forecast		Variance
A/R Collections	30(i)	$	141,791	$	153,335	$	(11,544)
Intercompany A/R Settlement	30(i)		5,572		-		5,572
Total A/R Collections			147,363		153,335		(5,972)
Collections on Behalf of Joint Ventures	30(ii)		959		16,356		(15,397)
A/R Collections - Affiliates	30(iii)		16,154		-		16,154
Intercompany A/P Settlement	30(iv)		11,484		-		11,484
Other Inflows	30(v)		5,800		8,700		(2,900)
Total Receipts		$	181,760	$	178,392	$	3,368

30. The variance analysis has been compiled based on discussions with Management and the following represents the more significant reasons for the variances:

(i) Total A/R Collections, inclusive of receipts related to Intercompany A/R Settlements, were approximately $147.4 million during the Reporting Period compared to a forecast amount of $153.3 million.

Intercompany A/R Settlements represent payments to the ACI Group from an affiliate ABH Group entity for ACI Group accounts receivable that were collected by the affiliated entity, such as BI or BCFPI.

-9-

(ii) Collections on Behalf of Joint Ventures totalled approximately $1.0 million. This amount represents accounts receivable collected by the ACI Group which belongs to a joint venture partner that will subsequently be paid over to the joint venture partner in accordance with the joint venture agreement. This amount is compared to a forecast amount of $16.4 million and results in a negative variance of $15.4 million. This variance is partly due to the fact that certain portions of amounts collected on behalf of joint ventures are also included in the "A/R Collections" line and have not yet been specifically allocated to "Collections on Behalf of Joint Ventures". For example, the ACI Group has estimated that, in the month of June, the ACI Group collected $8.0 million on behalf of their joint venture partners , which has not yet been reflected in the cash flow reports included in Appendix "E" as "Collections on Behalf of Joint Ventures" until account reconciliations are complete. Management has indicated that they intend to settle these amounts on a monthly basis.

(iii) A/R Collections - Affiliates were $16.2 million during the Reporting Period. As part of its normal Cash Management System, the ACI Group regularly collects accounts receivable on behalf of other ABH Group entities. As it is not possible to forecast which customers will incorrectly pay the ACI Group on behalf of the other entities, collections on behalf of affiliates is not forecast by the Petitioners. The funds are paid on a regular basis by the ACI Group to the appropriate ABH Group entity, which payments are reflected in the Intercompany A/R Settlements line of the disbursements section of the cash flow statement. As discussed later in this Ninth Report, an amount of approximately $23.4 million was paid out to affiliates during the Reporting Period.

(iv) Receipts related to Intercompany A/P Settlements totalled $11.5 million during the Reporting Period. Such receipts represent other ABH Group entities reimbursing the ACI Group in the normal course for payments made on their behalf as part of the Cash Management System. In order to determine the quantum of funds to be transferred between entities, the Petitioners reconcile amounts paid on behalf of other entities. Such amounts would have originally been included as a disbursement in the Trade Payables line.

-10-

(v) Other Inflows, which include tax refunds and other miscellaneous payments, totalled $5.8 million during the Reporting Period. This is $2.9 million less than the amount in the ACI Forecast.

Disbursements

31. A breakdown of the disbursements for the Reporting Period is outlined below:

			US$000
Disbursements	Para.		Actual		Forecast		Variance
Trade Payables	32(i)	$	(130,676)	$	(110,068)	$	(20,608)
Capital Expenditures	32(ii)		-		(6,260)		6,260
Marine Freight Payments			(5,997)		(4,200)		(1,797)
Utility Payments			(21,875)		(27,480)		5,605
Payroll & Benefits	32(iii)		(28,832)		(21,816)		(7,016)
Intercompany A/R Settlements	32(iv)		(23,358)		-		(23,358)
Joint Venture Remittances, Net			(15,549)		(15,372)		(177)
Restructuring & Other Items			(2,648)		(3,998)		1,350
Total Disbursements		$	(228,935)	$	(189,195)	$	(39,740)

32. The variance analysis with respect to the disbursements for the more significant variances has been compiled based on discussions with Management and the following represents a summary of the reasons for the variances:

(i) Trade Payables disbursements were approximately $130.7 million during the Reporting Period, which was $20.6 million greater than the ACI Forecast. Management has advised that the variance is primarily due to the following:

(a) Capital Expenditures have been included in the actual amount for Trade Payables disbursements until such time as the ACI Group identifies and allocates the disbursements which are capital in nature. For the months of April and May, 2009, capital expenditures were $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively; and

-11-

(b) The ACI Group regularly disburses amounts on behalf of other affiliated entities which are included in Trade Payable (as noted above, the ACI Group was reimbursed by affiliates for $11.5 million of such amounts during the Reporting Period). The quantum of amounts disbursed on behalf of other entities is not known until such time as the Petitioners reconcile their intercompany accounts, which is done on a regular basis. The Monitor will provide a separate report in the future with respect to post-filing intercompany transactions since the date of the CCAA filing.

(ii) As indicated above, Capital Expenditures are not tracked on a weekly basis. The disbursements related to capital disbursements have been included in the Trade Payables disbursement line. The ACI Group is currently analyzing purchases to identify and allocate the capital expenditures for June, 2009.

(iii) Total payments for Payroll & Benefits were $28.8 million during the Reporting Period compared to an amount of approximately $21.8 million in the ACI Forecast. The negative variance is largely due to higher than forecast benefit payments and the fact that certain benefit and tax withholding payments were included as part of Trade Payables disbursements in the ACI Forecast.

(iv) The ACI Group does not forecast the disbursement of Intercompany A/R Settlements as it is not possible to predict which customers will pay the incorrect ABH Group entity for accounts receivable. The corresponding receipt of these amounts collected from affiliate customers is included in the A/R Collections - Affiliates line included in the Receipts section of the cash flow statement.

-12-

Financing

33. Details regarding the ACI Group's financing activities are summarized in the following table:

			US$000
Financing	Para.		Actual		Forecast		Variance
Securitization Inflows / (Outflows)	34(i)	$	10,183	$	21,507	$	(11,324)
Securitization Closing Fees	34(ii)		(11,432)		(15,500)		4,068
Adequate Protection by DCorp to ACCC Term Lenders			(17,226)		(14,352)		(2,874)
DIP Interest & Fees			(99)		(143)		44
Foreign Exchange Translation	34(iii)		1,111		-		1,111
		$	(17,463)	$	(8,488)	$	(8,975)

34. The variance analysis with respect to the ACI Group's financing activities has been compiled based on discussions with Management and the following represents a summary of the reasons for the variances:

(i) Securitization Inflows/(Outflows) totalled an inflow of approximately $10.2 million compared to a projected inflow of $21.5 million during the Reporting Period. The reason for this difference is due to lower availability under the Securitization Program. The table below summarizes the net changes of availability under the Securitization Program borrowing base calculation compared to the assumptions contained in the ACI Forecast.

		US$000
Securitization Activity During Reporting Period		Actual		ACI Forecast
Borrowing Base - Opening	$	107,158	$	107,158
Borrowing Base - Closing		117,983		129,404
Net Increase in Availability		10,825		22,246
Interest, Fees & Adjustments		(642)		(739)
Securitization Inflows/(Outflows)	$	10,183	$	21,507

The decreased borrowing base availability noted above is due to several factors. These include lower than forecast sales and a higher percentage of ineligible receivables as compared to the ACI Forecast. The higher amount of ineligible receivables was primarily due to an older aging profile of accounts receivable than anticipated, which ineligible receivables are excluded from the borrowing base calculation.

-13-

(ii) Securitization Closing Fees were less than projected as a portion of the closing fees were paid in the week ended July 12, 2009, which is outside of the Reporting Period.

(iii) Amounts on the Foreign Exchange Translation line represent the difference between the actual exchange rate between Canadian and U.S. dollars at the time of conversion as compared to the forecast rate of CDN$1.00=US$0.90. During the Reporting Period the value of the Canadian dollar fluctuated between US$0.8649 and US$0.9251.

BCFPI

35. The following table summarizes the receipts and disbursements of BCFPI from June 1, 2009 to June 28, 2009, which is detailed in Appendix "F" of this Ninth Report:

		US$000
		Actual		Forecast		Variance
Receipts	$	44,895	$	68,133	$	(23,238)
Disbursements		(71,604)		(68,834)		(2,770)

Cash Flow from Operations		(26,709)		(701)		(26,008)

Opening Cash		28,065		27,295		770

Ending Cash	$	1,356	$	26,594	$	(25,238)

36. As detailed in the table above, BCFPI's total receipts for the Reporting Period were $23.2 million (34%) lower than the BCFPI Forecast and disbursements were $2.8 million (4%) higher than the BCFPI Forecast. Overall, the ending cash balance was $25.2 million (95%) lower than the BCFPI Forecast.

-14-

Receipts

37. A breakdown of the BCFPI receipts are summarized in the table below:

			US$000
Receipts	Para.		Actual		Forecast		Variance
A/R Collections	38(i)	$	9,501	$	68,133	$	(58,632)
Intercompany A/R Settlements	38(i)		32,578		-		32,578
Total A/R Collections			42,079		68,133		(26,054)
Other Inflows	38(ii)		2,816		-		2,816
Total Receipts		$	44,895	$	68,133	$	(23,238)

38. The variance analysis with respect to the receipts has been compiled based on discussions with Management and the following represents a summary of the reasons for the significant variances:

(i) Total A/R Collections were approximately $42.1 million resulting in a negative variance of approximately $26.1 million. This variance is primarily due to lower than forecast sales in both tonnage and price per tonne terms.

Pursuant to BCFPI's normal practice and the Cash Management System, sales which are made to customers domiciled in the United States are sold through an affiliate, Bowater America Inc. ("BAI"). BAI, which is a subsidiary of BI, collects the accounts receivable from the third party customers and then remits these funds via an Intercompany A/R Settlement to BCFPI. BCFPI continues to reconcile their intercompany trade receivables. It is anticipated that further settlements will occur in the coming weeks, which will improve BCFPI's cash position.

(ii) Amounts received related to Other Inflows were approximately $2.8 million during the Reporting Period. Such receipts primarily represent various tax refunds and deposits made at the mill level. BCFPI does not forecast such amounts.

-15-

Disbursements

39. Details regarding disbursements are summarized in the following table:

			US$000
Disbursements	Para.		Actual		Forecast		Variance
Trade Payables	40(i)	$	(44,032)	$	(46,584)	$	2,552
Intercompany SG&A Allocation	40(ii)		-		(4,960)		4,960
Intercompany A/R Settlements	40(iii)		(721)		-		(721)
Intercompany A/P Settlements	40(iv)		(2,566)		-		(2,566)
Payments on Behalf of Affiliates	40(v)		(8,248)		-		(8,248)
Freight	40(vi)		(2,728)		(6,624)		3,896
Payroll & Benefits	40(vii)		(12,493)		(7,339)		(5,154)
Capital Expenditures	40(viii)		-		(1,868)		1,868
Interest	40(ix)		(816)		(289)		(527)
Restructuring Costs	40(x)		(396)		(1,171)		775
Foreign Exchange Translation	40(xi)		396		-		396
Total Disbursements		$	(71,604)	$	(68,834)	$	(2,770)

40. The variance analysis with respect to BCFPI's disbursements has been compiled based on discussions with Management and the following represents a summary of the reasons for the variances:

(i) Disbursements related to Trade Payables were $2.6 million less than projected during the Reporting Period. The reason for this variance is primarily due to disbursements made by other ABH Group entities on BCFPI's behalf.

(ii) During the Reporting Period, BCFPI did not pay any amounts in respect of the Intercompany SG&A Allocation as the Q1 allocation and subsequent allocations have not been settled on a cash basis. This resulted in a positive cash flow variance of approximately $5.0 million, which should reverse when intercompany SG&A allocations are settled on a cash basis.

-16-

(iii) Payments for Intercompany A/R Settlements totalled approximately $0.7 million during the Reporting Period. Intercompany A/R Settlements represent payments made by BCFPI to reimburse related entities for accounts receivable incorrectly paid to BCFPI by ABH- affiliated customers.

(iv) Intercompany A/P Settlements represent BCFPI reimbursing related entities for payments made on its behalf. During the Reporting Period such payments totalled approximately $2.6 million.

(v) Payments on Behalf of Affiliates were $8.2 million during the Reporting Period. These payments primarily represent disbursements made by BCFPI on behalf of the Bowater Mersey Paper Company Ltd. ("Bowater Mersey"), which is a joint venture partially owned by BI. Due to the integrated nature of the operations of the Petitioners and the Cash Management System, such payments occur on a regular basis. BCFPI does not forecast such payments, nor do they forecast the repayment of these items. Management is working on reconciling these accounts so that BCFPI may be reimbursed.

(vi) Disbursements for Freight totalled $2.7 million during the Reporting Period. This compares to an amount of approximately $6.6 million in the BCFPI Forecast. The positive variance is in part due to lower than anticipated sales and the fact the certain amounts are still payable to the ACI Group for freight that it has paid on BCFPI's behalf.

(vii) During the Reporting Period, payments in respect of Payroll and Benefits were $12.5 million. The BCFPI Forecast projected disbursements in the amount of $7.3 million and, as a result, a negative variance of $5.2 million has arisen. This variance is due to earlier than projected payment of the regular monthly pension remittances due at the end of June and higher than projected benefit payments. The reason for this is that a portion of benefit payments were included in the BCFPI Forecast as part of the Trade Payables line.

-17-

(viii) Capital Expenditures are not tracked on a weekly basis. As such, disbursements for this line item have been included in Trade Payables. BCFPI is currently analyzing purchases to identify and allocate capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for April and May, 2009 were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

(ix) Payments with respect to Interest totalled $0.8 million during the Reporting Period. The BCFPI Forecast had projected disbursements of $0.3 million, thereby resulting in a difference of $0.5 million. This difference is due to the difference in timing of payment of interest amounts to the BI Bank Syndicate (as defined in the Initial Order).

(x) Restructuring Costs were $0.4 million during the Reporting Period. The BCFPI Forecast had payments of $1.2 million being made. This variance is primarily due to timing and this variance is expected to reverse.

(xi) Amounts on the Foreign Exchange Translation line represent the difference between the actual exchange rate at the time of conversion between Canadian and U.S. dollars as compared to the forecast rate of CDN$1=US$0.90.

CURRENT LIQUIDITY POSITION AND THE 13 WEEK CASH FLOW FORECASTS

41. Attached as Appendices "G" and "H", respectively, are the updated 13 week cash flow forecast of the ACI Group (including DCorp) and BCFPI through September 27, 2009.

-18-

42. The major changes from the cash flow forecasts contained in the Seventh Report are primarily lower newsprint prices and increased downtime due to further weakness in that segment of the Petitioners' business.

43. As at June 28, 2009, the ACI Group had cash on hand of $47.8 million. In addition to this amount, the undrawn portion of the ACI DIP Facility was $70.0 million. However, pursuant to the ACI DIP Facility $12.5 million of this amount must remain undrawn, thereby resulting in net available liquidity under the ACI DIP Facility of $57.5 million. Accordingly, the total liquidity of the ACI Group was $105.3 million ($47.8 million cash plus $57.5 million of the ACI DIP Facility) as at June 28, 2009.

44. On June 29, 2009, the ACI Group made a request of its DIP lender for a draw of $20 million pursuant to the ACI DIP Facility (the "Draw Request"). The Monitor reviewed the Draw Request with the Petitioners and provided the ACI DIP Lender and the Notice Parties (as defined in this Honourable Court's order of May 6, 2009) with evidence of the Monitor's approval of same. The Monitor was advised by Management that the Notice Parties did not object to the Draw Request.

45. The ACI Group's (including DCorp) projected liquidity for the next 13 weeks is set forth in Appendix "G" and is summarized in the graph below.

-19-

46. The ACI Group's liquidity at September 6, 2009 is projected to be $93.8 million, which is $19.4 million lower than in the ACI Forecast contained in the Seventh Report. The primary reason for this decrease is lower newsprint prices and increased downtime relative to the forecast which was included in the Seventh Report.

47. From the date of the CCAA filing to June 28, 2009, the net cash flow for the ACI Group was negative $76.1 million, exclusive of DIP draws.

48. BCFPI had cash on hand of $1.3 million at June 28, 2009. BCFPI's forecast liquidity for the 13 weeks ended September 27, 2009, which includes intercompany funding from BI in the amount of $24.0 million, is set forth in Appendix "H" and is summarized in the graph below. The significant decrease in projected liquidity is primarily due to lower newsprint prices and increased downtime.

49. BCFPI's projected liquidity as at September 6, 2009 is $3.3 million and represents a reduction of $1.7 million from the forecast set forth in the Seventh Report (taking into account the intercompany funding of $19 million). This reduction is primarily a result of further weakness in the newsprint segment as detailed earlier in this Ninth Report.

-20-

50. From the date of the CCAA filing to June 28, 2009, the net cash flow for BCFPI was negative $51.2 million, exclusive of DIP draws and intercompany settlements that are yet to occur. This negative cash flow will be somewhat offset once intercompany accounts are settled with Bowater Mersey.

51. Management has informed the Monitor that BCFPI's forecast cash requirements will be supported by BI through intercompany advances, if necessary.

52. As reported in the Seventh Report, in light of the declining market conditions and the strengthening of Canadian currency and the resultant impact on the ACI Group's and BCFPI's projected liquidity, the ABH Group is reviewing its alternatives to reduce costs and to better balance its mill production to current market demand.

CONTRACT REPUDIATIONS

53. On July 7, 2009, BCFPI, ACCC and ACI repudiated a number of contracts with Boralex Power Income Fund ("Boralex") in accordance with the provisions of the Initial Order. One contract was with respect to the service and maintenance of the Dolbeau cogeneration plant owned by Boralex. A second contract related to the sale of steam by Boralex to the Dolbeau paper mill owned by BCFPI. The remaining contracts relate to biomass supply agreements for the Dolbeau cogeneration plant.

54. One June 25, 2009, Boralex sent a letter advising the Petitioners that Boralex was suspending operations for an indefinite period. As of the date of this Ninth Report, the Dolbeau paper mill is temporarily idled. The Boralex cogeneration plant provides the Petitioners with steam that is required to operate the Dolbeau mill. The Monitor has been advised that the Petitioners have attempted to negotiate new agreements with Boralex on mutually acceptable terms.

55. The Petitioners continue to review their contracts in the context of possible repudiations in order to reduce costs.

-21-

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

56. The Seventh Report contained certain key performance indicators through May, 2009. The key performance indicators for the month of June were not available at the time of filing this Ninth Report and, as such they will be reported on in a future report of the Monitor.

57. The Monitor will report further to this Honourable Court with respect to the Petitioners' cash flow results and projections in four weeks' time.

All of which is respectfully submitted.
