Tweeter Seeks Delay on Chapter 11 Plan
Chain Store Age
Friday, February 8, 2008


Tweeter Home Entertainment Group Inc. said it needs more time to analyze claims and assess its financial condition before developing a Chapter 11 plan to divvy up proceeds from its sale to a New York hedge fund.

In light of the "recent" sale closing and the significant claims that are unresolved, Tweeter said in a court filing Tuesday that it deserves another four months to prepare a liquidation plan without the threat of rival plans.

The company is seeking to extend its exclusive right to file a plan through June 5. The period was set to expire Wednesday, but is automatically stretched through March 3 when the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del., holds a hearing on the company's request.

The company is also asking the court to extend its exclusive right to solicit plan votes through Aug. 4 from April 7.

Judge Peter J. Walsh granted the company's prior request for an exclusivity extension.
