c/o Bernstein-Burkley, P.C.
Attn: Kirk B. Burkley, Esq.
707 Grant Street, Suite 2200
Pittsburgh, PA 15219

I. Background

1. Name of Debtor: Shoppingtown Mall NY LLC

2. Type of Debtor: Limited Liability Company

3. Debtor's Business or Employment: The Debtor owns and operates the shopping
center known as “ShoppingTown Mall” located at 3649 Erie Boulevard East,
Dewitt, NY 13214 (“Real Property” or “Shoppingtown Mall”).

4. Date of Chapter 11 Petition: August 13, 2019.

5. Events that Caused the Filing:

The Debtor’s filing of its chapter 11 petition for relief was caused in significant part by the
Debtor’s real estate tax obligations on its Real Property. The county is currently taxing the Debtor
on its Real Property based upon a valuation of approximately $36 million. However, based upon
the condition of the mall and other factors, including the overall decline of brick-and-mortar retail
Case 19-23178-CMB Doc 155 Filed 01/19/20 Entered 01/19/20 20:40:36 Desc Main
Document Page 3 of 21

and shopping malls, the Debtor believes that the actual value of the Real Property is approximately
$3 million. Therefore, the Debtor’s current tax obligations are based upon a value that is more than
ten times its accurate valuation.

6. Anticipated Future of the Company & Source of this Information and Opinion:

The Reorganized Debtor will continue to operate ShoppingTown Mall as a shopping


mall, but the Reorganized Debtor will increase its rental revenue by obtaining tenants who are
not traditional retail stores. Specifically, the Debtor intends to market the available spaces in the
mall as potential office, healthcare, education, and entertainment concepts. The Debtor has
already expanded beyond retail tenants; various fitness tenants operate their business at
ShoppingTown Mall. In addition to the increased rental revenue that the Reorganized Debtor will
experience by further expanding its tenants, the Debtor’s Tax Assessment Appeal will result in a
substantial decrease of its real estate tax obligations

7. Summarize all Significant Features of the Plan Including When and How Each
Class of Creditor Will Be Paid and What, If Any, Liens Will Be Retained By Secured Creditors
or Granted to Any Creditor Under the Plan

A. Background

The Debtor operates ShoppingTown Mall in Dewitt, NY. ShoppingTown Mall has a
variety of tenants. Unlike many other shopping malls, ShoppingTown Mall has maintained
traffic to the Real Property by creating a mixed-use space which invites other types of tenants to
lease space. While ShoppingTown Mall’s tenants include retail stores, there are also other types
of tenants, such as fitness centers, which work to attract an array of consumers to the Real
Property.

The Reorganized Debtor intends to increase the diversity of the tenants at ShoppingTown
Mall to include office space, healthcare, entertainment concepts and more. As the success of
brick and mortar store has rapidly declined, the Debtor’s focus on non-retail stores will allow it
to increase its rental revenue while bringing more foot traffic to the retail stores already located
in ShoppingTown Mall.

B. Distribution Structure

All Allowed Administrative Expenses will be paid in full on the Effective Date of the
Plan.

Holders of Claims in Classes 1, 2, 3, and 4 shall receive an initial distribution ninety (90)
days after the effective date and shall receive a final distribution either seven (7) or twenty-five
(25) years from the Effective Date depending on the Holder’s ability and decision to have its
Claim treated as fully secured pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 1111(b).

value of the Real Property as determined by the Adversary Proceeding shall be Disallowed
pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 502(b)(3) and not entitled to any Distribution.

If any Unsecured deficiency of a Class 2, 3, or 4 Claim is nonetheless determined by the


Court to be Allowed pursuant to a Final Order, then such a deficiency Claim shall be treated as a
Class 8 Claim unless the Holder of such Claim makes an election under 11 U.S.C. § 1111(b) for
its entire Claim to be treated as Secured. If the Holder of a Class 2, 3, or 4 Claim makes an election

to valid and perfected liens on the Debtor’s Real Property as of the Petition Date and any

State source of funds for planned payments, including funds necessary for capital
replacement, repairs, or improvements:

The Debtor’s real estate taxes that it owes and is required to pay each year is
expected to decrease substantially as a result of the Tax Assessment Appeal,
which will increase available funds. Further, the Debtor will continue to operate
as ShoppingTown mall and its expansion into various different types of tenants
will increase the revenue generated by ShoppingTown Mall.

V. Comparison of Plan with Chapter 7 Liquidation

If Debtor's proposed Plan is not confirmed, the potential alternatives would include proposal of a
different plan, dismissal of the case or conversion of the case to Chapter 7. If this case is converted
to Chapter 7, a trustee will be appointed to liquidate the Debtor's non-exempt assets. In this event,
all secured claims and priority claims, including all expenses of administration, must be paid in
full before any distribution is made to unsecured claimants.

Total value of Chapter 7 estate (See Section III) $4,279,079.05


1. Less secured claims (See Section II A) $10,177,204.45

2. Less administrative claims (See Section IV-5-6


and include approximate Chapter 7 expenses) $250,000.00

3. Less other priority claims (See Section II B) $14,497.46

Total Amount Available for Distribution to Unsecured Creditors $0

Divided by total allowable unsecured claims of (See Section II C) $0

Percentage of Dividend to Unsecured Creditors: 0 %

Will the creditors fare better under the plan than they would in a Chapter 7 liquidation?

Yes __X_____ No ________

Explain:

In the event of a Chapter 7 Liquidation, Unsecured Creditors would not receive any
distributions. Further, the only secured creditors to receive any payment at all would be the Onondaga
County Department of Water Environment Protection and the County, Town, and/or School District as
their claims exceed the value of the Property. Under this proposed Plan, general Unsecured Creditors
instead receive the full value of their Allowed Claims payable over five years with no interest. Payment
in full of Allowed Claims’ values over five years without interest is more beneficial to Unsecured
Creditors than receiving no payments under a Chapter 7 liquidation.

VI. Feasibility Document Page 17 of 21

Attached as Exhibit A are Cash Flow Projections for 10 years with potential property valuations
of $3 million, $4.5 million, and $7 million. The projections show that the Reorganized Debtor will
increase its revenue and substantially reduce its operating expenses as a result of the Tax Assessment
Appeal which will account for the actual value of the Debtor’s Real Property. This reduction in property
taxes owed by the Debtor will allow the Reorganized Debtor to focus its efforts on a successful
reorganization and increase its free cash flow, which will fund the Plan and allow the Reorganized
Debtor to more effectively market its Real Property for additional leasing opportunities. The Debtor
reserves the right to supplement this Disclosure Statement with updated projections as they become
available and such supplements shall be provided by the Debtor prior to any applicable objection
deadline set for the Disclosure Statement.

Therefore, rather than sell the Real Property, which may result in little to no proceeds available
to the Secured Creditors and/or the Unsecured Creditors, the Debtor’s Plan instead sets forth a feasible
reorganization. Debtor has performed extensive due diligence and has considered its financial situation
in determining that this Plan is in the best interests of its Creditors. Based upon the predicted cash flow
models, Debtor’s Plan is feasible and provides fair and reasonable treatment of its Creditors in light of
the alternative liquidation.

Estimated amount to be paid on effective date of plan, including administrative expenses.

$251,980.00

Show how this amount was calculated.

$250,000.00 Administrative Class


$0 Taxes
$0 Unsecured Creditors
$ 1,980.00 UST Fees

$251,980.00 TOTAL

What assumptions are made to justify the increase in cash available for the funding of the plan?

The Debtor expects to receive a substantial decrease in its real estate tax obligations as a result of
its currently pending tax appeal.

Will funds be available in the full amount for administrative expenses on the effective date of the plan?
From what source? If not available, why not and when will payments be made?

As a result of the decreasing real estate tax obligations, the Debtor will have the necessary funds
to make the full payment of administrative expenses on the Effective Date of the Plan. To the extent that
the Debtor does not have the necessary funds to pay the administrative expenses on the Effective Date, it
may draw on the DIP Facility, which shall be converted to the Exit Facility on the Effective Date.

Cash on hand $365,030.63 (as of 11/30/19). (most current bank statements attached as Exhibit B).

Cash on hand $9,934.01 (Estimated amount available on date of confirmation)

If this amount is less than the amount necessary at confirmation, how will debtor make up the shortfall?

As stated above, the Debtor shall be permitted to borrow funds under the Exit Facility to pay the amount
necessary on the Effective Date. Additionally, Beacon and AT shall make an equity contribution in an
amount necessary to funds any then Allowed and unpaid professional fees.
