I like it, I like it ALOT ....
I own other spec stocks that could be winners, maybe BIG winners but none have a actual deadline to be a 500% winner by April 30, 2009. I hope it is a surprise and concluded much earlier but this is excitng.
We have many large players owed money, a large NOL, valuable land, cash, and an investor willing to develop an investment vehicle initially worth $1.63 billion dollars with another $500 million waiting in the wings to purchase preferred and common stock.
This is exciting ... although there is risk ... the economy is risk ...
Per bankruptcy document #5011 filed 10/03/2007 US Bank holds a $39.5+ million interest and Bank of New York holds a $27+ million interest .... that is a good motivator for them to see this deal closes and they are treated fairly.
Elliot Capital $11.9 million
Gabriel Capital $11.15 million
Stonehill Capital $4.4 million
Mariner Investment Group $2.095 million
While these amounts may have been paid down slightly within the last few years, these companies are part of our new company moving forward plus they obviously have had a vested interest in crafting the "Plan" to their satisfaction before the common stockholders were brought into the negotiations.

Theoretically, when do the speculators, traders and momo guys begin to accumulate?
Looking at a 500% move becoming more and more likely as we approach the effective date, when do the lurkers begin to accumaulate for the 100 - 500% pay off?
I'm not a trader ... what would be a traders approach to this situation?
Any ideas ?
Best to all ... MU_Redskin1
If we are only going to get $2-3 dollars per share I would ask the exchange to be;
1 share of SEBC Holdings, 1 warrant to purchase a share at $1 per share in the future and a little cash.
If we do it this way we get a little something up front plus we get to benefit in the future if the company does well too.

Keep those e-mails flowing to Mr. Markowitz ...
JMarkowitz@mdrtlaw.com
The Judge/Court are going to make a fair and balanced decision on this deal based on the information presented to them.
If there are no objections or NOISE from the common shareholders then the Court will think that the deal is palatible.
If we get behind our appointed representative, Jerry Markowitz, and give him some ammunition to use against this greedy investor then we will make out better than a buck-a-share.
Those people can't steal $441 million in approved NOLS unless we let them. Let's kick some ass people.
Send Jerry your information ... name, telephone number and number of shares and a good question.
The only thing I am concerned about is shareholder apathy.
We need to get off our asses and flood that e-mail box with shares and requests for information.
JMarkowitz@mdrtlaw.com
I just got off the telephone with Harvey ... he is busy with GYSN.
He's got a few deals in the works (don't ask he didn't tell me) an infommercial and other things going on ...
I was concerned for his health ... he's feeling great. He's just busy !
Stockholder's Call to action !
I spoke with Jerry Markowitz yesterday for about 10 minutes ... he didn't offer much in the way of new information. He said that he and Jim Feltman have a few meetings lined up early next week and that they are trying to negotiate a better deal for common shareholders (whatever that means). But at least they are meeting before the deadline to file objections.
Jerry said that if he knew the true number of shareholders and the number of shares that are represented on the boards to put those people in contact with him as that may help in the negotiations. I suggest any large shareholders send their name, telephone number, number of shares held and your most pressing question to: jmarkowitz@mdrtlaw.com
This is your chance to help ALL SHAREHOLDERS or forever hold your peace.
He said that they will do the best they can but nothing is guaranteed and the deal is ultimately up to the Judge. I told him I would like to know the business plan and purpose for both SEBC Financial and SEBC Holdings Company and the intent of the investor. My plan is call Jerry next Friday after his meetings to see if he has any new information. They are still moving to close the deal.
I'm in until the end ... I'll take the 5 bagger with the hopes of much bigger things down the road.
Have a great day and a better weekend ....

I will post this on IV too ... our destiny is in our hands.
I heard there were 23 Bank of America employees on the plane that landed in the Hudson River. They were in New York negotiating the Merrill deal. They too cheated death ... God bless them.
Looks like fate is going to deliver this deal amid economic chaos, a rocky merger and poor investor sentiment.
The "investor" must have something grand in mind to see this through to completion ... why else would they commit so much energy and resources in this time of financial hardship?

News - Bank of America completes purchase of Merrill Lynch ,,,our Investor
This satisfies one of the stipulations in the Disclosure Statement to close our deal !!!
AP
2 big banking sector acquisitions completed
Thursday January 1, 3:21 pm ET
By Harry R. Weber, AP Business Writer
Bank of America completes purchase of Merrill Lynch, while Wells Fargo gets rival Wachovia
ATLANTA (AP) -- Two mega acquisitions in the banking sector have been completed following the biggest financial crisis to hit the United States since the 1930s, capping a year in which Wall Street stocks were hammered, home foreclosure rates soared and job losses mounted.
Bank of America Corp. said Thursday it has completed its $19.4 billion all-stock purchase of Merrill Lynch & Co., while Wells Fargo & Co. said it has completed its $12.7 billion all-stock purchase of Wachovia Corp.
Merrill Lynch's sale to Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America, announced Sept. 15, creates the nation's largest financial services company. San Francisco-based Wells Fargo's purchase of Wachovia, a deal that was announced Oct. 3, creates a coast-to-coast powerhouse with community banks in 39 states and the District of Columbia.
Shareholders of Merrill Lynch received 0.8595 shares of Bank of America common stock for each common share of Merrill Lynch they owned. That valued Merrill Lynch at $19.4 billion based on 1.6 billion Merrill common shares outstanding as of the last filing date and Wednesday's Bank of America closing stock price of $14.08.
Wachovia shareholders received 0.1991 shares of Wells Fargo common stock in exchange for each share of Wachovia common stock they owned. That valued Wachovia at $12.7 billion based on 2.16 billion Wachovia common shares outstanding as of the last filing date and Wednesday's Wells Fargo closing stock price of $29.48.
Besides acquisitions, the turmoil in the banking sector has brought announcements of big job cuts and loans to several banks from the government's $700 billion rescue fund.
The Bank of America-Merrill Lynch deal was struck as the solvency of investment banks was in grave doubt, and kept Merrill, which lost billions of dollars in the subprime mortgage crisis, from a complete meltdown like the one suffered by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., which was forced to file for bankruptcy.
New York-based Citigroup agreed to step in and buy Wachovia's banking operations for $2.1 billion with the help of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. But only four days later, Wells Fargo made a higher offer that did not hinge on any government support and ultimately won the right to purchase all of Wachovia and its businesses and obligations, including all of its banking deposits.
On Dec. 11, Bank of America said it expected to cut 30,000 to 35,000 jobs over the next three years. The final number could be even higher, analysts say. Bank of America said at the time it hadn't yet completed its analysis for eliminating positions, and wouldn't until early this year. Including Merrill Lynch, Bank of America has about 308,000 employees. It said the cuts would affect workers from both companies.
Bank of America reiterated Thursday it expects to achieve $7 billion in pretax expense savings by 2012. It said the cost reductions would come from a range of sources, including the previously announced job cuts and the reduction of overlapping technology, vendor and marketing expenses.
Bank of America said it will have the largest wealth management business in the world with roughly 20,000 financial advisors and more than $2 trillion in client assets. It said the combination also adds strengths in debt and equity underwriting, sales and trading, and merger and acquisition advice, creating significant opportunities to deepen relationships with corporate and institutional clients around the globe.
As for Wells Fargo, it said that with Wachovia, it now has $1.4 trillion in assets and for the first time has a community banking presence in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and Washington, D.C. As of Thursday, Wells Fargo and Wachovia customers have free use of all of the company's combined ATMs, Wells Fargo said.
There did not appear to be any plans to immediately change the Wachovia name to Wells Fargo. A Nov. 24 regulatory filing said that the plan to integrate Wells Fargo and Wachovia operations was still being developed. The filing said an estimated $1.9 billion in costs was expected to be incurred over time due to "branch and administrative site consolidations, name change and signage."
The chief of Bank of America has said previously the bank intends to keep the Merrill Lynch name intact.
Scheduled Court dates and deadlines so far ...

Objection to Disclosure Statement Deadline: 2/2/2009. (Adam, Lorraine)
Where we stand at this point ...imho
We are waiting on confirmation orders from the court granting the Trustee's motions filed on December 17, 2008. I have been checking the court postings every day. Once the orders are issued the Trustee can proceed with actionable steps to finalize the deal.
1.) Approval of the break-up fee and reimbursement for the Investor
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC032.pdf
2.) Solicitation of ballots to approve the "Plan"
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC033.pdf
3.) Supplemental Notice of publication to all interested parties regarding the emergence of SEBC from bankruptcy
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC034.pdf
4.) What we know is that a bar date of January 26, 2009 has been set to submit final Administrative claims.
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC035.pdf
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC031.pdf
pg 92.... the estate pays investors legal fees up to $900,000
pg 94....this should be done on or before March 16, 2009 (plan confirmation date)
pg 135 .... assumed effective date April 30, 2009
After past hearings the confirmation orders granting the Trustee's motions were issued within 1-10 business days after the hearing. I think we get these orders the first full week in January, 2009 because of the holidays. Then the Trustee will proceed.
IMO, I believe many investors have contacted both Mark Bloom and Jerry Markowitz. I believe that both Jerry and Jim Feltman are negotiating the best deal for the common shareholders that the Investor will tolerate. Therefore I think another version of the "Plan" and/or "Disclosure Statement" may be submitted to the Court before it is approved. I still don't have a clear picture of how the preferred and common shareholders are being compensated for the investor's use of the NOL's for all our benefit.
Best to all ... good luck, good investing and Happy New Years !!!

It looks as though the Trustee/SCS/Investor have priced everything at a dollar to make the deal clear, the intial accounting simple and as a basis to get the deal done as simply and soon as possible. The investor has the right to sell the preferred and common to whoever they like after the deal is completed.
It says in the Disclosure/Plan that there is a third party investor who is ready to invest " at least $500 million" in this deal. To me that is an indicator of bigger things to come once we get he deal completed. imho.
We're having a nasty, rain, sleet, ice, snow storm here in beautiful northeast Ohio.

Do you think if we get a cash payout in addition to our stock swap that it would be touted in the amended Plan or Disclosure statement before the last possible minute?
I posed the question to the Trustee and his counsel. No reply as of yet ... I bet they wait until the last legally possible minute.
The insiders need to get in fast or their initial profit will be lost .... they coulda bought at .20 in the last several months and made .80 before the deal. After the deal they will be paying MUCH more. imho.

After looking at all the Preferred priced at par I figure that is where the New common may begin trading assuming we don't have a huge run before the effective date. just an ewag ....
If you look on Page #6 of the disclosure statement it mentions "effective date" of April 30, 2009. The date is actually an "on or before" deadline.
I believe that date is in the Amended Plan also .... In the definitions section 1.38 'Effective Date' .... actual page #5
I found this DD information based on me100's (Harvey) suggestion that ESGR could be a similar case study to our STBP situation. The stock reached a high of $135.02 before the recent collapse and now trades at $57.72. http://investorvillage.com/smbd.asp?mb=1070&clear=1&pt=q

******************************************
Enstar announces future distribution of new stock
Business Wire, August 28, 1996
MONTGOMERY, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 28, 1996--The Enstar Group Inc. ("Enstar") announced that it has resolved all issues relating to its 1995 income tax returns.
As a result of the resolution of its 1995 income tax issues, Enstar will be able to repay its remaining creditors from its bankruptcy, in full, with interest. After Enstar's bankruptcy creditors have been paid in full, Enstar will have $35 to $40 million in net worth, based on the current market value of its assets, which consist primarily of stock in First Union Corp. Therefore, Enstar will be in a position to issue new stock to former shareholders who owned Enstar stock on June 1, 1992, in accordance with its bankruptcy plan. (On June 1, 1992, the common stock of Enstar was cancelled pursuant to its bankruptcy plan.)
Enstar will seek bankruptcy court approval of a procedure to notify and identify former shareholders entitled to receive the new stock. Enstar anticipates that it will send notification and claim forms to former shareholders in late September and issue and distribute its new shares to qualifying former shareholders in early 1997.

Jacksonville Business Journal - by Jane Bennett
Local investors James Dahl and Wayne Davis are buying heavily into Enstar Group Inc., a Montgomery, Ala.-based shell company.
Enstar is sitting on a pile of cash and stock and is looking for companies to acquire.
Davis, who owns 94,036 Enstar shares, is a director of the company, along with Christopher Flowers, a partner in the prestigious New York brokerage firm Goldman Sachs & Co.
Enstar (ESGR:Nasdaq Bulletin Board) has assets of $4 million in cash and holds 1.3 million shares of First Union Corp. stock, worth about $53 million at the bank's current stock price. "And it (Enstar) has no debt," Dahl said. In addition, the company earns $1.7 million a year on the $1.28 a share dividends paid by First Union.
In July, the company announced plans to buy back $5 million of its own stock. That hasn't started yet, Dahl said, "but every insider is buying stock." The company has 4.5 million shares outstanding. Insiders own 449,509 shares, or 10.06 percent.
A shell company has no active operations. "Usually they are registered companies with NOL's, or net operating losses, that they can carry over to offset future income," said Don Wiggins, professor of accounting and finance at the University of North Florida. Enstar has a net operating loss of $96 million, Dahl said.
Enstar formerly did business as KinderCare Inc., a day-care center company backed by venture capital from Wayne Davis' father. Davis did not return phone calls for this story.
In 1989, Enstar disassociated itself from KinderCare and became a publicly traded company that specialized in low-priced women's clothing stores such as Simply 6. Enstar filed for bankruptcy in 1991 and a year later canceled its common stock.
In 1995, the company sold one of its assets, American Savings and Loan of Florida in Miami, to First Union Corp. in a stock swap that brought Enstar the 1.3 million shares it now owns.
The company went public a second time in March, and since then the stock price has steadily climbed from $9.39 to Tuesday's $14 closing price.

I believe this article may support the theory about the value in STBP.PK ......
The publication requirements are printed on page 6 of this document. They are similarly reported in the new docs ....
http://www.sebcglobalsettlement.com/pleadings/SEBC019.pdf
Class B = 5 million
Class C = 5 million
B + C = 40% of SEBC Fianancial Corporation common stock after the effective date of at/or before April 30, 2009 ....
Then 60% Class "A" SEBC Fianancial common shares equal 15 million shares.
25 million SEBC Fianancial shares OS after effective date. imo.
page # 5 of the disclosure states SEBC common stock will get dividends of $25.9 million over six years. (disclaimer follows) SEBC Holdings will hold (Class A) 60% of SEBC common stock.
page #6 SEBC Holdings will be initially valued at $ 33.5 million .... disclaimer follows ....

Disclosure filed 12/10/2008. Many hundreds of pages of reading are in the amneded plan, disclosure statement and exhibits. I like what I see initially, we'll see what our lawyers Jerry Markowitz and Jim Feltman have to say in the coming days. Good reading and I am looking forward to some thoughtful exchange in the coming days and weeks as we close the deal.

IMO once the disclosure statement filing hits the court and is made public we will see how good the deal is because the traders who are lurking and sitting on the sidelines may be able to place a value on the shares and bid up the stock price. We'll see ...
I'm fully loaded at this point ...

Maxx,
... from what I've been told Jerry and Jim have been informed of the progress and brought up to speed along the way but have not been actively participated in the negotiations.
The negotiations are primarily between the Trustee, SCS, the credtors and the Investor.
There will be no rubber stamp unless we get fair terms in the disclosure statement. Jerry and Jim will review and react after all the filings are submitted.
All the other "details" you asked about are confidential at this point until released by the Trustee in the disclosure statement court filing.
Per the "Plan" one person can operate as both the managing partner of Real Estate LLC and General Partner of SEBC Holdings LLC. So a modest $150,000.00 salary and an assistant fit in the $600,000.00 "operating loan" budget. imo.
negotiations and voting ...
When I spoke with Markowitz he said there are "ways" to negotiate with the investor and Trustee. The "plan" and the "disclosure statement" are negotiable until they are signed, sealed and delivered. Jerry said they really can't act on the proposal until all the cards are on the table.
I read in the "plan" where third party interests may invest another $500,000,000.00+ in the venture too. This may end up being much bigger than most of us think. SPE's are generally formed with a pupose in mind. So we'll just have to see what the "Investor's intentions are ... maybe acquisitions ... but that is speculation at this point.
Regarding the "vote" on the plan. The creditors are "assumed to have approved the plan" and will not be solicited for a vote. The SEBC common shareholders are "assumed to have rejected" the plan and will not be solicited for a vote. The SEBC Preferred shareholders, the only two parties are the FDIC and Norfolk Southern Corp., will be solicited for their vote. So this is very nice and neat.

Here is the NOL schedule from the MSA .... what is the $578,700,000.00 tax credit worth to the Investor? Hopefully the INVESTOR and Merrill Lynch recognize this in a fair deal. If not, our boyz will certainly bring this fact to Judge Hyman and the Investor's attention.

Thank you. If I do not see a filing this week then I will call Jerry and see if he can provide any guidance for our shareholders.
He did say that he and Jim Feltman would "vigorously pursue value" for the common shareholder once the disclosure statement is filed.
Markowitz said that he hopes that the Trustee can get the disclosure statement filed this week. This is a dynamic and fluid document at this point.
The only thing that was filed on the 28th was the following ...

According to Jerry Markowitz the disclosure statement needs to be filed with the court for review and approval before anything else. As soon as the disclosure statement is filed he and Jim Feltman will analyze the terms of deal from the common shareholders perspective and relate the terms to us.
Then the negotiations begin !
