So I decided to look up CEMJQ in regards to you saying the EC was appointed AFTER a POR was proposed. From my quick and limited research, your statement does not seem to be accurate. Equity committee appointment: http://www.chemturacommittee.info/Disclosure.pdf Following further correspondence with the U.S. Trustee in November and December 2009, the U.S. Trustee appointed the Equity Committee on December 29, 2009 [Docket No. 1676]. The POR was filed on June 17, 2010: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20100617006832/en/Chemtura-Files-Plan-Reorganization-Disclosure-Statement So it appears, that an EC was formed BEFORE the POR was proposed. If you have something that states otherwise, please post it. Thanks, IMO
