District Court”), challenging the FDIC Receiver’s disallowance of the Debtors’ Claims, and asserting, among other claims, a claim for the Disputed Accounts, as defined below, as deposits and several causes of action to avoid preferential or fraudulent transfers pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code and other applicable federal and state laws. On June 11, 2009, FDIC Corporate filed a motion to dismiss the claims asserted against FDIC Corporate and the FDIC Receiver filed an answer and counterclaims asserting claims against the Debtors and a motion to dismiss certain aspects of the Debtors’ complaint in the WMI Action.

JPMC and certain holders of funded indebtedness of WMB (collectively, the “Bank Creditors”) have intervened, and the Creditors’ Committee has moved to intervene, in the WMI Action.

On July 6, 2009, JPMC filed an answer, counterclaims and a crossclaim that named the FDIC Receiver as an additional defendant in the Turnover Action. On July 27, 2009, the FDIC Receiver filed an answer to JPMC’s crossclaim.

Pursuant to that certain Settlement Agreement, dated as of May 21, 2010 (the “Initial Agreement”), by and among the Parties and certain holders of claims against and equity interests in the Debtors (collectively, the “Settlement Note Holders”), the parties thereto agreed to compromise and settle claims and causes of action set forth in, among other actions and proceedings, the WMI Action, the JPMC Action, the Turnover Action, the Rule 2004 Inquiry, the Debtors’ Claims, the JPMC Claims, the Bankruptcy Stay Motions and the appeals therefrom, the FDIC Claims and the asserted transfer of the Trust Preferred Securities. S. By order, dated July 28, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court approved the appointment of Joshua R. Hochberg as examiner (the “Examiner”) to investigate among other things, the claims and action being compromised and settled and the assets being transferred pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Initial Agreement. T. Subsequent to the execution of the Initial Agreement, the parties thereto agreed to modify the Initial Agreement to address changed circumstances, US_ACTIVE:\43614644\03\79831.0003 5 including, without limitation, (1) the appointment of the Examiner and the passage of time associated with delivery of the Examiner’s final report and (2) a subsequent agreement in connection with Bank Bondholder Claims. These modifications were set forth in that certain (y) Amended and Restated Settlement Agreement, dated as of October 6, 2010, as amended (the “Amended Agreement”), which, among other things, extended the termination date therein to December 31, 2010, subject to the rights of the Debtors and JPMC to further extend such date to January 31, 2011 and (z) Sixth Amended Joint Plan of Affiliated Debtors Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, dated October 6, 2010, as modified (the “Sixth Plan”). U. On November 1, 2010, the Examiner issued his final report and determined that the compromise and settlement embodied in the Initial Agreement was fair, reasonable and in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors and the Debtors’ chapter 11 estates. V. Commencing on December 2, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court conducted a hearing to consider confirmation of the Sixth Plan and the reasonableness of the compromise and settlement set forth in the Amended Agreement. Thereafter, (1) by order, dated December 20, 2011, the Bankruptcy Court (a) stated that it would be unable to render a decision by the December 31, 2010 termination date and (b) requested that the parties to the Amended Agreement inform the Bankruptcy Court as to whether the termination date of the Amended Agreement would be extended to January 31, 2011 and (2) in response thereto, the Debtors and JPMC, with the constent of the Creditors’ Committee, extended the termination date to January 31, 2011 and the Debtors filed a notice thereof with the Bankruptcy Court. W. By opinion and order, each dated January 7, 2011, the Bankruptcy Court (1) denied confirmation of the Sixth Plan pending certain modifications being incorporated therein and (2) determined that (a) consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Amended Agreement was in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors and the Debtors’ chapter 11 estates, and (b) the compromise and settlement embodied in the Amended Agreement was fair and reasonable. X. Due to, among other things, the passage of time, (1) the Settlement Note Holders have determined not to further extend the termination date of the Amended Agreement and (2) as result thereof, the Debtors exercised their rights pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Amended Agreement and terminated the Amended Agreement. Y. The Parties remain committed to the compromise and settlement set forth in the Amended Agreement, as modified herein, and have concluded that because of, among other things, the complexity, inherent delay and substantial expense of litigating the issues associated with the WMI Action, the JPMC Action, the Turnover Action, the Rule 2004 Inquiry, the Debtors’ Claims, the JPMC Claims, the Bankruptcy Stay Motions and the appeals therefrom, the FDIC Claim and the asserted transfer of the Trust Preferred Securities and the consequent issuance of the REIT Series, each as defined below, the length of time necessary to resolve each of the issues presented US_ACTIVE:\43614644\03\79831.0003 6 therein, the complexity and uncertainty involved and the concomitant disruption to the Debtors’ efforts to generate distributions for the benefit of the Debtors’ creditors and of the FDIC Receiver’s efforts to resolve matters with respect to the Receivership, it is in their respective best interests to resolve their disputes and related matters on the terms set forth in this Agreement and as embodied in the Plan, as defined below. The Debtors further believe that the compromise and settlement provided herein is fair and reasonable, and in the best interests of the Debtors, the Debtors’ estates and their creditors. Z.

Se supone que han estado pagando eso? Debo tener depósitos en efectivo? o Cómo?
Gracias.

 El LIBOR está a la baja, así que espere lo inesperado. Ahora la FDIC quiere 400B. Cuánto de eso es para Wamu, quién sabe.
Se dice que alrededor del 80B.
Si JPM es realmente responsable de los bonos, 80.000 millones van a parar a los accionistas.
Una vez que se realiza el LIBOR, el FDICR puede cerrar. Ahí es donde es más probable que se encuentre el gran dinero.
Parece que quieren cerrar todo esto rápidamente, tal vez para inyectar dinero en efectivo a esta horrible economía. Se acercan las elecciones.
Entonces, ¿quién diablos lo sabe? LIBOR es la siguiente señal.
Entonces, ¿JPM emitirá acciones en lugar de efectivo? ¿Emitirán nuevas P por las antiguas? ¿COOP emitirá Ps por activos? ¿Es el estatuto de 15 año  un factor? ¿Están los hedgies dispuestos a demandar si el pago no se realiza ahora?
Hay tantas cosas interesantes en el horizonte. 

Personalmente  en mi cuenta , jamas  recibir nada, pero  pronto lo haran,seguimOs esperando CHIKIS
