Litigación vs Liquidación
1. There is the Newco, and you will get some newco shares if you granted releases. depends on which shares you hold at the moment.
2. Then there is the liquidation trust.
and the litigation trust, but all of the gains of the litigations will proceed to the liquidation trust.
and, all of the assets of wmi (except the wmb shares, and the wmi investment, and the wimrik) will go to the liquidation trust at the effective date.
and then this assets (mainly the taxrefunds of 5,3 bio) will be delivered to the claims, the waterfall down. first the senior bonds, than the junior bonds, and then the unsecured creditors. there is the border at the moment, the money is not enough to pay the unsecured creditors full, at the moment they are at 10%.
but, the liqquidation trust will get more money, some unpaid taxrefunds, maybe some reservations (for dimeqs for example) and maybe some settlement payments from third party claims.
and that could reach to the preferrreds too.
so you could get money for your preferreds on booth ways, first with newcoshares and second with payments from liquidating trust.
but only if the crooks from wmi will persue the third party claims honestly.
for example, they could file a lawsuit against goldman sachs for 26 bio, the bookvalue of wmb, and make a serious settlement for example for 3 bio.
or, they could file a lawsuit for 1 Bio, and settle for 100 mio.
depends on the lawyers, and depends on the members of the litigation trust, southhard, klein and willingham.
and maybe it depends on us, if we stop watching and fighting.
