#Report

The officer filed a report. The debtors ceased operations in early 2004 (February 2004) and have been under CCAA protection since March 2004. The report supports a court-approved sale of all assets to Eaux Vives Water Bottling Corp. for $18,000,000 cash, with the Monitor acting as Interim Receiver, and warns that failure to close would likely force a liquidation.

Each row is one filing's statement, copied as it reads and never computed. "Estimated" is the officer's forecast; "Under the plan" is the plan's or proposal's own term; "Final" is a declared or paid distribution; a row with no chip states no footing. A range is the two numbers stated; "of proven claims" is the document's own denominator.
