OverviewSummary updated

Blue Wave Seafoods Incorporated filed a notice of intention on 15 November 2013, with Deloitte Restructuring Inc. as trustee and the matter before the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia under court file 37735. The proceeding turns on sections 50.4(7)(b)(ii) and 50.4(9) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act. The Statement of Affairs as at 15 November 2013 puts total assets at $2,627,992.81 against total liabilities of $4,931,940.48, a reported deficiency of $2,303,947.67, with secured claims of $3,773,970.00 and unsecured claims of $1,157,970.48. Nova Scotia Business Inc. holds the largest secured position at $3,026,405 over the West Pubnico land and building, machinery, inventory and receivables, with $645,977.19 of that claim unsecured; BMO's $247,565 is fully secured. The province's Economic and Rural Development and Tourism claim of $500,000 ranks behind the Nova Scotia Business Inc. mortgage and is shown as wholly unsecured. The proceeding is active.
