Oberthal, I believe what investors here fail to understand is the meaning of Safe Harbor, Bankruptcy Remote in its simplest terms. Let me explain.
1) In order to get assets committed to Safe Harbor, this is very legally challenging, as this takes specialized and committed lawyers in order to get this correct
2) Now, assets that are deemed Safe Harbor protected, this is the easy part
3) All Safe Harbor, bankruptcy remote means is that certain assets are protected from bankruptcy Creditors and NOT realized or recognized in the active bankruptcy process
4) BUT Delaware Federal Bankruptcy Court rules and ownership decisions carry the weight of the entire case whether bankruptcy remote, Safe harbor or NOT
5) Hence, the (ED) Effective Date 3/19/2012 where there was an Ownership Change which canceled ALL former common and preferred prospectuses and ALL associated documents - If this did not happen any investors who did NOT sign releases would then have an ownership right to NewCo/COOP and markers...Of course, this is NOT possible
5) To prove this point, all one has to do as ask Justin Nelson of SG who kept trying to bring up assets over liabilities of 32 over 8 billion and was repeatedly shut down by Judge Walrath to the point if he did it again he would be sanctioned - Justin NEVER showed up in court again
