Item
1.03. Bankruptcy or Receivership
On
October 3, 2010, we filed a voluntary petition for reorganization in the United
States Bankruptcy Court, Western District of Kentucky, Bowling Green Division
(the “Bankruptcy
Court”), pursuant to Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States
Code. The protection of Chapter 11 is expected to allow us to
reorganize our business operations and finances. The case number
assigned for our reorganization proceeding is 10-11532.
We
have retained bankruptcy counsel, Harned, Bachert & McGehee PSC (“HBM”), to represent
us in the bankruptcy proceedings.
This
filing follows a voluntary Chapter 11 filing made with the Bankruptcy Court on
September 14, 2010 by our wholly owned operating subsidiary, KY USA Energy, Inc.
(“KY USA
Energy”) (Case No. 10-11424). On October 6, 2010, HBM filed a
motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting joint administration of our
case with that of KY USA Energy.
More
information about our reorganization case may be obtained from the Clerk of the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Kentucky, whose
office is located at 450 U.S. Courthouse, 601 W. Broadway, Louisville, Kentucky
40202. The telephone number for the Clerk’s office is (502)
627-5700.
