1.

My name is Todd Brents. I am currently a Managing Director with AlixPartners,

LLC (AlixPartners). I have worked as a restructuring and financial consultant for over 20 years serving various industries including, among others, real estate, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, financial services, and technology industries. I have substantial knowledge and experience advising large companies and assisting troubled companies with stabilizing their financial condition, analyzing their options, and developing appropriate business plans to accomplish restructuring initiatives. If called and sworn as a witness, I could and would testify competently to the matters set forth herein. 2. I submit this declaration (this Declaration) in accordance with Rule 1007-2 of

the Local Bankruptcy Rules for the Southern District of New York (the Local Bankruptcy Rules) in support of the Debtors Sixth Omnibus Objection to Claims (Wrong Debtor Claims) (the Objection), which is filed contemporaneously herewith. 3. The facts set forth in this Declaration are based upon my personal knowledge,

upon information and belief, or upon records kept in the ordinary course of business. 4. Considerable time and resources have been expended to ensure a high level of

diligence in reviewing and reconciling the proofs of claim filed against the Debtors in these Chapter 11 Cases (the Claims). 5. I oversaw those involved in the process of reviewing and reconciling the Claims

filed against the Debtors, as well as in the preparation of the Objection. In this regard, I: (a) oversaw the review of (i) the Claims register, by which those under my supervision identified Claims that should be allowed, disallowed, adjusted, or reclassified and (ii) the books and records with respect to the Claims described in the Objection (the Wrong Debtor Claims); (b) conferred with the Debtors employees and professionals having knowledge relevant to understanding the validity of the Claims; (c) approved the inclusion of the Wrong Debtor Claims 2

in the Objection; (d) reviewed the Objection and the proposed order attached thereto as Exhibit A; and (e) reviewed and approved the information contained in Schedule 1 attached thereto (the Schedules) and the justifications set forth therein. Accordingly, I am familiar with the information contained in the Schedules. 6. To the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, the Wrong Debtor Claims

duplicate the Surviving Claims, except that the Wrong Debtor Claims are filed against a different Debtor than the Surviving Claims. While the claimants may be entitled to a claim against certain of the Debtors, the Debtors have determined that their books and records do not reflect the liabilities asserted in the Wrong Debtor Claims, and therefore these claims should be disallowed and expunged. 7. To the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, the assertions made in the

Schedules are accurate. In evaluating the Wrong Debtor Claims, the Debtors have thoroughly reviewed their books and records and the relevant proofs of Claim, as well as the supporting documentation provided by each claimant and have determined that the amount of each such Wrong Debtor Claim requires disallowance. As such, I believe that the disallowance and expungement of the Claims set forth in the Schedules are warranted.

CONCLUSION Based upon my review, or the review of those working at my direction, of the Claims register, the Debtors' books and records and the Debtors' schedules of assets and liabilities, I believe that granting the relief requested in the Objection is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates and their creditors, and that the information contained in the Schedules is accurate. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1746, I declare under penalty of pe1jury that the foregoing is true and correct. Dated: April20, 2011
