SIGNAL APPAREL PROVIDES
UPDATE ON ITS CHAPTER 11 BANKRTUPCY FILING
SIGNAL APPAREL COMPANY, INC. (OTCBB:SIAY) announced today that it has been
unable to secure a buyer for substantially all of its business on a going
concern basis. As a result, the Company is taking steps to liquidate its assets
and properties in a manner designed to maximize value.
The Company also announced that it has secured limited debtor-in-possession
financing for salaries and other expenses incurred in connection with the
Company's liquidation of its assets and has received bankruptcy court approval
for this limited "DIP" financing.
The Company also announced that it expects to lose the services of its transfer
agent for its common shares in the very near future due to the Company's lack of
funds to pay the transfer agents fees. In this event, there can be no assurances
that an efficient mechanism to transfer record ownership of the Company's common
shares will be available to its shareholders.
