Case update
Bennette Chase: a second sale process, and a bigger charge
Justice Marion approved a thirty-day process for the closed Calgary Esso on September 18: bids close at 5:00 p.m. on October 19 with a ten per cent deposit, no condition but court approval, and the receiver free to waive any requirement it sets. A second order raised the Receiver's Charge to $500,000 against $248,467 of unpaid professional fees and sealed the supplement holding the first process's offers.
Case update
Bennette Chase: forty interested parties and no sale
A four-pump Esso on 34 Avenue SE in Calgary has been closed since the receiver took it over in April. Forty parties signed non-disclosure agreements, four thousand people looked at it online, and nobody bought it. On September 8 the receiver asked to relist $405,000 lower and to raise its own charge from $300,000 to $500,000 — against professional fees of $248,467 and $60,200 left in the account.
