Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.
On September 23, 2008, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida (the "Bankruptcy Court") entered an order (the "Confirmation Order") confirming the Second Amended Plan of Liquidation (the "Plan") of Transcapital Financial Corporation ("TFC"). Copies of the Plan as confirmed and the Confirmation Order are attached as Exhibits 2.1 and 99.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
The Plan contemplates the liquidation of all of TFC's assets for the benefit of creditors with Allowed Claims (as defined in the Plan). TFC will not continue to engage in the conduct of any trade or business except to the extent necessary to accomplish the liquidation and distribution of TFC's assets. In addition, the Plan provides that all equity interests in TFC, including, without limitation, common stock, warrants, options and other rights to purchase any equity interest in TFC, will be cancelled and extinguished as of the effective date of the Plan, and the holders thereof will not retain any rights in respect of such interests other than the right to receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. Additionally, all of TFC's litigation claims have become vested assets of TFC's estate and the liquidating agent is authorized to commence and prosecute any such claims for the benefit of the estate and creditors with Allowed Claims and holders of Allowed Equity Interests (i.e., equity interests which have not been timely disputed or, if timely disputed, have been allowed by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to a final order). Jeffrey H. Beck was appointed as the liquidating agent of TFC's estate.
As of June 30, 2008, TFC had approximately 9,806,324 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value. As of the effective date of the Plan, TFC will no longer have any shares of capital stock issued and outstanding. TFC does not have any shares of capital stock reserved for future issuance in respect of claims and interests filed and allowed under the Plan.
As of August 31, 2008, TFC's assets are comprised of $27,751,892 cash and United States Treasury securities. As more fully described in TFC Plan and the related disclosure statement, TFC liabilities are comprised of secured claims of $7,122,896.08, plus interest and unsecured claims of $4,626,006.20.
