BACKGROUND
4. This Chapter 11 case was commenced by the filing of a Voluntary Petition on
May 12, 2016. By order entered October 18, 2017, this Court ordered the appointment of a
Chapter 11 Trustee. On October 23, 2017, the Office of the United States Trustee filed its
application for approval of the appointment of Jeffrey A. Weinman as the Chapter 11 Trustee,
which application was approved October 25, 2017. No official committee has yet been appointed
by the Office of the United States Trustee.

Sale Hearing, (e) Approving the Form and Manner of Notice; (f) Approving Procedures for the
Assumption and Assignment of Certain Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases; and (g)
Granting Related Relief (the “Bid Procedures Motion”), which seeks approval of certain bid
procedures and bidder protections (the “Bid Procedures”) with respect to the Sale, approval of the
amendment to the Trustee’s brokerage agreement with its marketing agent, scheduling a hearing
approving the sale of the Debtor’s Assets (the “Sale Hearing”), and approving certain assignment
procedures (the “Assumption Procedures”), for the assumption and assignment of the Assigned
Contracts, as more particularly set forth therein. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings in the Bid Procedures Motion and Bid Procedures
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page2 of 21

5. In 2006, Debtor purchased a portion of the JCRS shopping center located at 6451,
6553, and 6579 West Colfax Avenue, Lakewood, Colorado (the “Property”).2 The Property
consists of approximately 43,000 square feet of retail space divided into 15 units, which include
a Family Dollar, nail salon, Blackjack Pizza, and liquor store. 3 The Property is Debtor’s only
substantial asset. The Trustee continues to operate the Property.
6. Situated between Debtor’s property located at 6553 and 6579 West Colfax
Avenue is a vacant retail strip center structure, located at 6575 West Colfax Avenue, owned by a
third-party (the “Adjacent Property”). The Adjacent Property once housed an Albertson’s
grocery store. Upon information and belief, it is currently owned by third-party SFCA, LLC, an
affiliate of the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design.
7. Debtor’s purchase of the Property was financed in part with a $3,000,000 loan
from First National Bank (“FNB”). The Property is subject to a Deed of Trust for the benefit of
FNB, which secures a promissory note in the original amount of $3,000,000, as amended (the
“FNB Note”). The current balance on the FNB Note is approximately $2,550,000. FNB has
agreed to extend the maturity date of the FNB Note to July 14, 2018 and Debtor is current on its
payments to FNB, which includes an escrow for real estate taxes and insurance.
8. Prior to the appointment of the Trustee, Debtor previously attempted to sell the
Property. Debtor was at one time under contract with CK Acquisitions, LLC (“CK
Acquisitions”) to sell the Property, but CK Acquisitions failed to close the sale after more than a
year. Thus, Debtor’s prior attempts to sell the property, without engaging a marketing agent and
conducting a public bidding and auction process, have proven unsuccessful.
2 The legal description of the property is set forth in Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement, a
copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1 to the Sale Order. 3 Casa Bonita, a notable Denver restaurant, is located in the shopping center directly adjacent to
the Property to the west.

9. The Trustee has determined that a sale of substantially all of Debtor’s assets
would maximize the value of the estate for all stakeholders. The Trustee has been in contact
with several parties interested in purchasing Debtor’s Assets. One such party, Broad Street, has
agreed to serve as a stalking horse bidder and has entered into a Purchase Agreement with the
Trustee, dated as of April 2, 2018, whereby the Broad Street proposes to purchase the Assets for
cash consideration of $3.5 million (the “Purchase Price”), which will serve as a competitive
baseline of recovery for the Debtor’s stakeholders. The proposed transaction, if approved, will
generate significant value for the Debtor’s estate, and among other things, satisfy a significant
portion of the prepetition claims against the Debtor in a manner that maximizes value. As
consideration for serving as a stalking horse bidder and subject to approval by the Court, the
Purchase Agreement provides that, if the Trustee sells to a purchaser other than Broad Street, the
Trustee shall pay Broad Street a breakup fee of $125,000 and expense reimbursement not to
exceed $25,000.
10. In the Bid Procedures Motion, the Trustee seeks approval of the bidding and
auction procedures as well as the overbid protections for Broad Street in connection with the sale
of substantially all of the Assets to Broad Street, all as more fully set forth in Bidding
Procedures Motion and Bid Procedures attached thereto.
11. The Trustee, with Court approval, retained NRC Realty & Capital Advisors of
CO, LLC (“NRC”) as its real estate and marketing agent in this chapter 11 bankruptcy case. The
Trustee, with the assistance of NRC, seeks authority to market test the Broad Street transaction
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement to ensure that the Trustee obtains the highest or
otherwise best offer for the Debtor’s Assets. If approved, the Bid Procedures will enable the
Trustee to move expeditiously towards a sale of the Assets in a manner that will maximize value
for the estate. As set forth in further detail below, the sale, the Purchase Agreement, the Bidding
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page4 of 21
5
Procedures, and the related relief requested in this Motion are in the best interests of the Debtor’s
estate and its stakeholders.
12. The Court has approved the Trustee’s application to retain NRC and the Exclusive
Brokerage Agreement (“Brokerage Agreement”) between the Trustee and NRC, under which
NRC agreed to serve as the Trustee’s marketing agent. Docket No. 305. The Brokerage
Agreement required, among other things, that the Trustee pay a minimum 4% commission to
NRC upon sale of the Assets to a buyer arranged by NRC. When the Trustee and NRC entered
into the Brokerage agreement, however, the Trustee had not engaged a stalking horse bidder.
Thus, the Trustee’s entry into the Purchase Agreement with Broad Street requires amendment to
the Brokerage Agreement to reflect that the Trustee has engaged a stalking horse bidder and to
ensure that NRC is compensated for its marketing efforts in the event that Broad Street is the
Successful Bidder. Thus, the Trustee and NRC have agreed to amend the Brokerage Agreement
to provide that, if Broad Street is the Successful Bidder (as defined below), the Trustee will pay
NRC a fee of $50,000 plus reimbursement of NRC’s actual expenses incurred up to $10,000. The
Trustee is seeking approval of the amended Brokerage Agreement in the Bid Procedures Motion
filed concurrently herewith.
13. The Trustee intends to assume and assign to Broad Street (or other Successful
Purchaser) certain unexpired leases with Debtor’s tenants and is proposing procedures to notify
the counterparties to such leases of the proposed assumption and assignment and cure amounts.
RELIEF REQUESTED
14. The Trustee will seek entry of an order at the conclusion of the Sale Hearing,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Sale Order”):
(a) authorizing and approving the Sale of Debtor’s Assets to Broad Street or
the Successful Bidder (as defined in the Bidding Procedures) on the terms
substantially set forth in the Purchase Agreement or Successful Bid;
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page5 of 21

(b) authorizing and approving the Sale of substantially all of Debtor’s Assets
free and clear of liens, claims, encumbrances, and other interests to the
extent set forth in the Purchase Agreement or Successful Bid;
(c) authorizing the assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts;
(d) authorizing disbursement of sale proceeds upon closing to pay
commissions of NRC; and
(e) granting any related relief.
15. Trustee reserves the right to file and serve any supplemental pleading or
declarations that the Trustee deems appropriate or necessary in its reasonable business judgment,
including any pleading summarizing the competitive bidding and sale process and the results
thereof, in support of their request for entry of the Sale Order before the Sale Hearing.
PROPOSED SALE
16. The Trustee entered into arm’s-length negotiations with the Broad Street to
finalize agreeable terms of the Purchase Agreement for the sale of Debtor’s Assets. The Trustee
believes a prompt Sale of Debtor’s Assets provides the best alternative available for all
stakeholders in this chapter 11 case.
17. The Trustee respectfully request that the Court approve the following general
timeline:
a. Entry of the Bid Procedures Order: no later than May 4, 2018.
b. Contract Cure Objection Deadline: 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Mountain Time)
fourteen (14) seven calendar days from service of the Contract Notice (as defined
in the Bid Procedures Order), as the deadline to, object to the cure amounts listed
in the Contract Notice;
c. Bid Deadline: 3:00 p.m. (prevailing Mountain Time), on or before May 30, 2018,
as the deadline by which bids for Debtor’s Assets (as well as the deposit and all
other documentation required under the Bidding Procedures for Qualified Bidders
(as defined in the Bidding Procedures)) must be actually received (the “Bid
Deadline”);
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page6 of 21
7
d. Sale Objection Deadline: May 30, 2018, at the close of business (prevailing
Mountain Time) as the deadline to object to the Sale;
e. Auction (if necessary): June 6, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. (prevailing Mountain Time), as
the date and time the Auction, which will be held at the offices of Davis Graham
& Stubbs LLP, located at 1550 17th Street, Suite 500, Denver, CO 80202, if the
Trustee and NRC receive one or more Qualified Bids and determine that an in-
person auction is the best means of ensuring the best and highest offer;
f. Sale Hearing: the week of June 11, 2018, or otherwise as the Court’s calendar
permits, as the date and time for the Sale Hearing.
18. The Trustee believes that this timeline maximizes the prospect of receiving a
higher or otherwise better offer without unduly prejudicing the chapter 11 estate. To further
ensure that the Trustee’s proposed Sale process maximizes value to the benefit of the Debtor’s
estate, the Trustee, with the assistance of NRC, will use the time following entry of the Bidding
Procedures Order to actively market the Assets in an attempt to solicit higher or otherwise better
bids in an effort to market test the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. The
Trustee believes the relief requested by this Motion is in the best interests of its creditors, its
other stakeholders, and all other parties in interest, and should be approved.
PURCHASE AGREEMENT
19. The Trustee believes that the consummation of the Sale to the Broad Street or a
Successful Bidder at auction will provide Debtor’s creditors and other stakeholders with the
best opportunity possible for maximizing the value of Debtor’s Assets.
20. Pursuant to Local Rule 6004-1(d), the key terms of the Purchase Agreement and
the proposed Sale Order, are summarized below:4

21. The Trustee believes that the sale of the Debtor’s Assets to Broad Street or other
Successful Bidder is in the best interests of the Debtor’s estate and its creditors. The Trustee
further believes that obtaining the stalking horse bid, marketing Debtor’s Assets on their own
and/or in conjunction with the Adjacent Property with the assistance of NRC, and holding the
Auction on the date specified by the Court will result in the highest or otherwise best
consideration for the Debtor’s Assets.
22. The Trustee has examined the alternatives to a sale of the Debtor’s Assets and has
determined that, in light of the Debtor’s financial situation, and value of the Debtor’s Assets, a
more viable alternative to sale of the Debtor’s Assets does not exist. The Trustee has determined
that the sale of the Debtor’s Assets optimizes value for its estate and creditors.
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page11 of 21
12
23. For the reasons stated above, and in light of the obvious benefits to the estate, the
Trustee has determined, in the exercise of its business judgment, to consummate the proposal
submitted under the Purchase Agreement with Broad Street or, if applicable, another
Successful Bidder in the event that the Trustee receives a higher or otherwise better bid
to the transaction set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
BASIS FOR RELIEF
I. The Sale Should Be Approved as an Exercise of Sound Business Judgment.
24. Section 363(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a debtor, “after notice and
a hearing, may use, sell or lease, other than in the ordinary course of business, property of the
estate.” 11 U.S.C. § 363(b)(1). The sale of a debtor’s assets should be authorized pursuant to
section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if a sound business purpose exists for doing so. See,
e.g., In re Allen, 607 Fed.Appx. 840 (10th Cir. 2015) (citing In re Caste, Inc., 312 B.R. 426,
428 (Bankr. D. Colo. 2004); In re Martin, 91 F.3d 389, 395 (3d Cir. 1996) (citing In re
Schipper, 933 F.2d 513, 515 (7th Cir. 1991)); In re Abbotts Dairies of Pa., Inc., 788 F.2d
143 (3d Cir. 1986); Stephens Indus., Inc. v. McClung, 789 F.2d 386, 390 (6th Cir. 1986); In re
Lionel Corp., 722 F.2d 1063 (2d Cir. 1983).
25. The Trustee has proposed the sale of Debtor’s Assets after thorough
consideration of all viable alternatives and has concluded that the sale is supported by many sound
business reasons. Debtor’s Assets have been the subject of prior sale attempts and the Trustee
has proposed Bid Procedures designed to maximize the purchase price realized from the sale of
Debtor’s Assets. Further, the Trustee believes the post-petition marketing of Debtor’s Assets up
to the proposed deadline to submit competing bids for the Purchased Assets will provide a
sufficient opportunity to generate any potential overbids and maximize recovery for the Debtor’s
creditors. Specifically, other potential buyers and parties that have expressed interest in the
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page12 of 21
13
acquisition of Debtor’s Assets will be served with this Sale Motion and/or notice thereof.
Consequently, the ultimately successful bid, after being subject to a “market check” in the form
of the Auction, will constitute, in the Trustee’s reasonable business judgment, the highest or
otherwise best offer for the Assets and will provide a greater recovery for its estate than any
available alternative. See, e.g., In re Trans World Airlines, Inc., No. 01-00056, 2001 WL
1820326, at *4 (Bankr. D. Del. 2001) (noting that, while a Ҥ 363(b)sale transaction does not
require an auction procedure,” “[t]he auction procedure has developed over the years as an
effective means for producing an arm’s length fair value transaction.”).
26. Based on the foregoing, the sale of the Assets is supported by sound business
reasons and is in the best interests of the Debtor and its estate. Accordingly, the Trustee requests
approval under section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code of the Sale to the Purchaser or other
successful bidder, as set forth herein.
II. The Sale Has Been Proposed in Good Faith and Without Collusion and the Stalking
Horse Bidder or Successful Bidder Is a “Good-Faith Purchaser.”
27. Section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code provides:
The reversal or modification on appeal of an authorization under subsection (b)
or (c) of this section of a sale or lease of Property does not affect the validity of a
sale or lease under such authorization to an entity that purchased or leased
such Property in good faith, whether or not such entity knew of the
pendency of the appeal, unless such authorization and such sale or lease were
stayed pending appeal.
11 U.S.C. § 363(m).
28. Section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, among other things, provides, in turn, that
a trustee may avoid a sale if the sale price was controlled by an agreement among potential
bidders at the sale. See 11 U.S.C. § 363(n). Although the Bankruptcy Code does not define
“good faith,” the Third Circuit in In re Abbotts Dairies of Pennsylvania, Inc., held that:
[t]he requirement that a purchaser act in good faith . . . speaks to the integrity
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page13 of 21
14
of his conduct in the course of the sale proceedings. Typically, the misconduct
that would destroy a purchaser’s good faith status at a judicial sale involves
fraud, collusion between the purchaser and other bidders or the trustee, or an
attempt to take grossly unfair advantage of other bidders.
788 F.2d at 147 (citations omitted).
29. Broad Street, or any other Successful Bidder at the Auction, will be a good faith
purchaser within the meaning of § 363(m) and no circumstances are present that would implicate
§ 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.5 First, the consideration to be received by the Trustee is
substantial, fair, and reasonable. Second, the parties entered into the Purchase Agreement in
good faith and after extensive, arm’s-length negotiations, during which all parties were
represented by competent counsel, and any sale agreement with a Successful Bidder will be the
culmination of a competitive bidding and Auction process in which all parties will presumably
be represented by counsel and all negotiations will be conducted on an arm’s-length, good-faith
basis. Third, there is no indication of any “fraud, collusion between the purchaser and other
bidders or the trustee, or an attempt to take grossly unfair advantage of other bidders” or similar
conduct that would cause or permit the Sale or Purchase Agreement to be avoided under section
363(n)of the Bankruptcy Code. And, with respect to potential bidders, the Bidding Procedures
are designed to ensure that no party is able to exert undue influence over the process. Finally,
Broad Street’s offer was evaluated and approved by the Trustee in consultation with its advisors,
and any other bids that the Trustee ultimately determines to be a successful bid will have been
5 The Trustee believes that a finding of good faith within the meaning of section 363(m) of the
Bankruptcy Code will be appropriate for any Successful Bidder at the Auction. Pursuant to the
Bidding Procedures, any Successful Bidder will have had to present a proposal in accordance
with the Bidding Procedures. In addition, the Trustee will not choose as the Successful Bidder or
Backup Bidder (as defined in the Bidding Procedures) any entity whose good faith under section
363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code it reasonably doubts, and will be prepared to present the Court
with sufficient evidence to allow the Court to find that the “good faith” standard of section
363(m)of the Bankruptcy Code has been satisfied.
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page14 of 21
15
evaluated in a similar fashion. Accordingly, the Trustee believes that Broad Street (or another
Successful Bidder arising from the bidding and Auction process, if any) and the Purchase
Agreement (or an approved modified version thereof) should be entitled to the protections of
section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.
III. The Proposed Sale Satisfied the Requirements of Section 363(f) for a Sale Free and
Clear of Liens, Claims, and Interests.
30. 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code provides:
The trustee may sell property under subsection (b) or (c) of this section free
and clear of any interest in such Property of an entity other than the estate, only
if –
(1) applicable nonbankruptcy law permits sale of such property free and clear
of such interest;
(2) such entity consents;
(3) such interest is a lien and the price at which such property is to be sold is
greater than the aggregate value of all liens on such property;
(4) such interest is in a bona fide dispute; or
(5) such entity could be compelled, in a legal or equitable proceeding, to
accept a money satisfaction of such interest.
11 U.S.C. § 363(f).
31. Section 363(f) is drafted in the disjunctive. Thus, satisfaction of any of the
requirements enumerated therein will suffice to warrant the sale of Debtor’s Assets free and
clear of all of the applicable liens, claims and encumbrances, except with respect to any liens,
claims and encumbrances permitted under the Purchase Agreement. See Citicorp
Homeowners Servs., Inc. v. Elliot, 94 B.R. 343, 345 (E.D. Pa. 1988).
32. Pursuant to Local Rule 6004-1(e), section 363(f)(2) and (3) apply. FNB, which
holds a valid, first-priority perfected liens against the Assets to secure repayment of an
outstanding balance of approximately $2.5 million, has consented, or will have consented, to the
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page15 of 21
16
Sale and the Purchase Price of $3.5 million is greater than the aggregate value of such lien. FNB
will be paid at closing. The Debtor’s schedules show that Stripe A Lot has a second-priority lien
against the Assets to secure repayment of $12,000. The Trustee has not yet been able to
investigate this claim. To the extent its debt is undisputed, Stripe A Lot will be paid at closing.
A title search revealed a deed of trust on the Assets, dated May 24, 2011 in favor of Bokin Im, as
lender, to secure repayment of $120,000. The Trustee has not yet been able to investigate this
claim and the extent to which any amounts are owed Bokin Im. To the extent any amounts owed
Bokin Im are undisputed, Bokin Im will be paid at closing. The Trustee will also attempt to
obtain the consent of Stripe A Lot and Bokin Im to the Sale and, in any event, the purchase price
of $3.5 million exceeds the aggregate value of the known liens on the Assets.
33. The Trustee will serve each known lienholder with a copy of this Motion, its
attachments, and a notice in accordance with Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7004. The Trustee accordingly
requests authority to convey Debtor’s Assets to Broad Street or another Successful Bidder as a
result of the bidding process or Auction, if any, free and clear of all liens, claims, rights,
interests, charges, and encumbrances, with any such liens, claim’s, rights, interests, charges, and
encumbrances to attach to the proceeds of the Sale.
IV. The Assumption and Assignment of Contracts Should Be Approved.
34. As required by the Purchase Agreement, and in order to enhance the value to
the Debtor’s estate, the Trustee requests approval of the potential assumption and assignment of
the unexpired leases that have been identified as Assigned Contracts to Broad Street or another
Successful Bidder.
a. Sound Business Judgment.
35. Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code authorizes a debtor to assume and/or assign
executory contracts and unexpired leases, subject to the approval of the court, provided that the
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page16 of 21
17
defaults under such contracts and leases are cured and adequate assurance of future performance
is provided. The Trustee’s decision to assume or reject an executory contract or unexpired lease
must only satisfy the “business judgment rule” and will not be subject to review unless such
decision is clearly an unreasonable exercise of such judgment. See, e.g., Group of Institutional
Investors v. Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Ry. Co., 318 U.S. 523 (1943) (applying
Bankr. Act section 77(b), predecessor to Bankruptcy Code section 365, and rejecting test of
whether executory contract was burdensome in favor of whether rejection is within debtor’s
business judgment); Matter of Talco, Inc., 558 F.2d 1369, 1173 (10th Cir. 1977); In re J.H.
Land & Cattle Co., Inc., 8 B.R. 237, 238 (Bankr. W.D. Okla. 1981); In re Crescent Oil Co., Inc.,
2010 WL 2721878, 3 (Bankr. D. Kan. 2010). A Trustee satisfies the “business judgment” test
when it determines, in good faith, that assumption of an executory contract will benefit the estate
and the unsecured creditors. In re FCX, Inc., 60 B.R. 405, 411 (Bankr. E.D.N.Y. 1986).
36. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Broad Street is responsible for payment
of all cure amounts required to be paid to the counterparties to the Assigned Contracts (“Contract
Counterparties”) under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.
37. The Assigned Contracts are those contracts or leases that are to be assumed by the
Debtor and assigned to Broad Street or the other Successful Bidder as part of the sale transaction
under the Agreement. The Trustee further requests that the Sale Order provide that the
Assigned Contracts will be assigned to, and remain in full force and effect for the benefit of,
Broad Street or the Successful Bidder, notwithstanding any provisions in the Assigned Contracts,
including those described in sections 365(b)(2) and (f)(1) and (3) of the Bankruptcy Code, that
prohibit such assignment.
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page17 of 21
18
38. Pursuant to the Bid Procedures Motion, the Trustee proposes that an initial list
(or lists) of Assigned Contracts be served on all counterparties to such contracts and leases no
later than three (3) business days after entry of the Bid Procedures Order.
39. The potential assumption and assignment of the A s s i g n ed Contracts is a
necessary part of the deal that the Trustee struck with the Broad Street (or will strike with any
Successful Purchaser) and is a sound exercise of the Trustee’s business judgment. First, the
Assigned Contracts produce rental income and are essential to inducing the best offer for
Debtor’s Assets. Second, it is unlikely that any purchaser would want to acquire Debtor’s assets
unless the Assigned Contracts are included in the transaction. Third, the Purchase Agreement
provides that the assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts is integral to, and
inextricably integrated in, the Sale. Finally, the Assigned Contracts will be assumed and
assigned through the process approved by the Court pursuant to the Bidding Procedures Order
and, thus, will be reviewed by key constituents in this chapter 11 case.
b. Cure Procedures
40. Any defaults under the Assigned Contracts will be cured through the Sale. The
Trustee has or will send the Contract Notices to all Con t rac t Counterparties in connection
with the Court’s approval of the Bid Procedures, thereby notifying such Contract Counterparties
of the potential assumption by the Debtor and assignment to Broad Street or the Successful
Bidder of the Assigned Contracts. The Contract Notices shall set forth any “cure” amounts
owing on each Assigned Contract, according to Debtor’s books and records and, in accordance
with the provisions set forth in the Bid Procedures, shall be the amounts required to be paid
pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code (“Cure Amounts”). The Bid Procedures
Motion proposes that objections, if any, to either (i) the Cure Amounts or the assumption or
assignment of contracts and leases that are identified as Assigned Contracts or (ii) adequate
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page18 of 21
19
assurance of future performance be filed on or before the objection deadline to the proposed sale.
Objections to the adequate assurance of future performance of a successful bidder (other than
the Purchaser), may be raised at the Sale Hearing.
41. Cure Amounts disputed by any Contract Counterparty will either be considered by
the Court either at the Sale Hearing or at some later date as may be scheduled by the Court to
determine contested objections regarding Cure Amounts, that have not been resolved in
advance or at the Sale Hearing. With respect to payment of Cure Amounts, Broad Street shall
bear and pay the entire amount of such cure costs.
c. Adequate Assurance of Future Performance.
42. The meaning of “adequate assurance of future performance” for the purpose of
the assumption of executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code depends on the facts and circumstances of each case, but should be given
“practical, pragmatic construction.” See Carlisle Homes, Inc. v. Arrari (In re Carlisle Homes,
Inc.), 103 B.R. 524, 538 (Bankr. D.N.J. 1989); In re Natco Indus., Inc., 54 B.R. 436, 440 (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. 1985) (adequate assurance of future performance does not mean an absolute assurance
that debtor will thrive and pay rent); In re Bon Ton Rest. & Pastry Shop, Inc., 53 B.R. 789, 803
(Bankr. N.D. Ill. 1985). If necessary, Broad Street or any Successfu l Bidder shall
provide evidence of its ability to provide adequate assurances to Counterparties to the
Assigned Contracts at the Sale Hearing. As required by the Bidding Procedures, the Trustee
will evaluate the financial wherewithal of potential bidders before designating such party as a
Qualified Bidder (e.g., financial credibility, willingness, and ability of the interested party to
perform under the Assigned Contracts) and will demonstrate such financial wherewithal,
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page19 of 21
20
willingness, and ability to perform under the Assigned Contracts assigned to Broad Street or any
Successful Bidder arising from the Auction. Further, the Assumption Procedures provide the
Court and other interested parties ample opportunity to evaluate and, if necessary, challenge the
ability of Broad Street or any Successful Bidder arising from the Auction to provide adequate
assurance of future performance and object to the assumption of the Assigned Contracts or
proposed cure amounts.
MARKETING COMMISSIONS AND FEES
43. Upon the selection of a Successful Bidder, the Trustee will file a notice detailing
the amount of commissions and fees owed NRC upon closing of the Sale with the Successful
Bidder. Any objections to the payment of such commissions and fees out of sale proceeds shall
be submitted prior to the Sale Hearing and resolved by the Court at that time. Upon resolution of
any objections, the Court shall authorize payment of commissions and fees owed NRC under the
Brokerage Agreement, as amended, upon Closing and out of Sale Proceeds as a reasonable and
necessary administrative expense of the Debtor’s estate.
NOTICE
44. Notice of this Motion and the Sale Motion shall be served on (a) the U.S. Trustee,
(b) counsel for FNB, (c) counsel to Broad Street, (d) state and local taxing authorities, (e) all
parties known to assert a lien against the Assets, (f) parties listed on the Creditor Address
Mailing Matrix, and (g) any other parties entitled to notice under Fed. R. Bankr. P. 2002.
CONCLUSION
WHEREFORE, the Trustee respectfully requests that this Court grant this Sale Motion by
entering the Sale Order the attached proposed order: (i) approving the Purchase Agreement and
the sale of substantially all of the Debtor’s assets; (ii) authorizing the sale of the Debtor’s assets
free and clear of all liens, claims, rights, encumbrances and other interests pursuant to
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page20 of 21

Bankruptcy Code Sections 363(b), 363(f) and 363(m); (iii) assuming and assigning certain
unexpired leases pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365; and, (iv) granting related relief.

THE COURT HEREBY FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT:2
A. This Court has jurisdiction to hear and determine the Sale Motion pursuant to 28

accordance with sections 102(1), 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules
2002, 6004 and 6006 and in compliance with the Bid Procedures Order, and such notice was

2 The findings and conclusions set forth herein constitute the Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052, made applicable to this proceeding pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9014.

Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page3 of 35
-4-
of the Sale Motion, the relief requested therein and all matters relating thereto, the Auction, the
Sale Hearing, the assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts and related transactions
in the Purchase Agreement or entry of this Sale Order is or shall be required. Creditors, parties-
in-interest and other entities have been afforded a reasonable opportunity to object to the Sale. A
reasonable opportunity to object or be heard with respect to the Sale Motion and the relief
requested therein has been afforded to all interested persons and entities.
E. The Trustee has complied in all respects with Local Bankruptcy Rule 6004-1 of
the Local Rules of Bankruptcy Practice and Procedures of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Colorado (the “Local Rules”), establishing guidelines for the conduct of asset
sales.
F. It is in the best interests of the Debtor and its estate to sell the Purchased Assets
and assume and assign the Assigned Contracts within the time constraints set forth in the Sale
Motion and the Purchase Agreement. The Sale must be approved and consummated promptly as
provided herein in order to maximize the value of the Assets for the Debtor’s estate.
G. As demonstrated by (i) the testimony and/or other evidence proffered or adduced
at the Sale Hearing and (ii) the representations of counsel made on the record at the Sale
Hearing, the Trustee has marketed the Assets and conducted the sale process in compliance with
the Bid Procedures Order.
H. The marketing and bidding processes implemented by the Trustee, as set forth in
the Sale Motion, the Bid Procedures Order, and supporting documentation filed in connection
therewith, were fair, proper, complete, provided an adequate opportunity for interested parties to
submit improved bids, and were reasonably calculated to result in the best value received for the
Assets.
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page4 of 35
-5-
I. The Trustee has full corporate power and authority to consummate the Sale
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and all other documents contemplated thereby, and no
consents or approvals, other than those expressly provided for in the Purchase Agreement, are
required for the Trustee to consummate the Sale.
J. The Trustee has articulated good, sufficient, and sound business reasons for
entering into the Purchase Agreement and consummating the Sale outside a plan of
reorganization. It is a reasonable exercise of the Trustee’s business judgment to consummate the
Sale.
K. Approval of the Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the Sale are in the
best interests of the Debtor, its estate, its creditors and other parties-in-interest under applicable
bankruptcy and nonbankruptcy law.
L. The Purchaser’s bid for the Assets, as memorialized in the Purchase Agreement,
is the highest or otherwise best offer received for the Assets and will provide a greater recovery
for the Debtor’s creditors than would be provided by any other practical available alternative.
The Purchase Price to be paid by the Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is fair
consideration and constitutes reasonably equivalent value under applicable bankruptcy and
nonbankruptcy law for the Assets, as determined by the marketing and auction process.
M. The Agreement was negotiated, proposed and entered into by the Trustee and the
Purchaser without collusion, in good faith and from arm’s-length bargaining positions. Broad
Street is not an “insider” of the Debtor, as that term is defined in section 101(31) of the
Bankruptcy Code. Neither the Trustee nor Purchaser have engaged in any conduct that would
cause or permit the Purchase Agreement to be avoided or be the basis for an award for monetary
damages under Bankruptcy Code section 363(n). Specifically, the Purchaser has not acted in a
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page5 of 35
-6-
collusive manner with any person and the purchase price was not controlled by any agreement
among bidders.
N. All of the actions taken by the Purchaser and its representatives, employees,
counsel and other professionals in connection with the Purchase Agreement, the auction process
and this proceeding have been taken in good faith. The Purchaser is a good faith purchaser of
the Assets within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code section 363(m) and is entitled to all of the
protections afforded thereby. The Purchaser proceeded in good faith in all respects in connection
with the Sale in that: (i) the Purchaser in no way induced or caused the chapter 11 filing of the
Debtor; (ii) the Purchaser recognized that the Trustee was free to deal with any other party
interested in acquiring the Assets; (iii) the Purchaser complied with the provisions in the Bid
Procedures Order; (iv) the Purchaser agreed to subject its bid to the competitive bid procedures
set forth in the Bid Procedures Order; and (v) all payments to be made by the Purchaser pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement in connection with the Sale have been disclosed.
O. The Assets constitute property of the Debtor’s estate. The transfer of the Assets
to the Purchaser will be a legal, valid, and effective transfer of the Purchased Assets, and will
vest the Purchaser with all right, title, and interest of the Debtor in and to the Purchased Assets
free and clear of all liens, claims, interests, obligations, rights and encumbrances, except as
otherwise specifically provided in the Purchase Agreement. Except as specifically provided in
the Purchase Agreement (including but not limited to liabilities arising under the Assigned
Contracts arising on and after the Closing Date) or as otherwise set forth in this Sale Order, the
Purchaser shall have no liability for any claims against the Debtor or its estate or any liabilities
or obligations of the Debtor or its estate. Accordingly, the Trustee may sell the Assets free and
clear of all liens, encumbrances, pledges, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, claims,
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page6 of 35
-7-
leases, charges, options, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, hypothecations,
encroachments, retentions of title, conditional sale arrangements, restrictive covenants,
easements, servitudes, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, and transfer restrictions under any
agreement in each case, whether known or unknown, choate or inchoate, filed or unfiled,
scheduled or unscheduled, noticed or unnoticed, recorded or unrecorded, perfected or
unperfected, allowed or disallowed, contingent or non-contingent, liquidated or unliquidated,
matured or unmatured, material or non-material, disputed or undisputed (collectively, the
“Interests”) and adverse claims, except as provided in the Purchase Agreement or in this Sale
Order, because one or more of the standards set forth in sections 363(f)(1)–(5) of the Bankruptcy
Code has been satisfied with regard to each such Interest or adverse claim. Those non-Debtor
parties with Interests or adverse claims in or with respect to the Assets who did not object, or
who withdrew their objections, to the Sale or the Sale Motion are deemed to have consented to
the sale of the Assets free and clear of those non-Debtor parties’ Interests or adverse claims in
the Assets pursuant to section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Those holders of Interests or
adverse claims in any Assets who did object fall within one or more of the other subsections of
section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and are adequately protected by having their Interests or
adverse claims, if any, attach to the proceeds derived from the Sale. The Purchaser would not
have entered into the Purchase Agreement, and would not consummate the Sale, thus adversely
affecting the Debtor, its estate, and its creditors, if the sale of the Assets to the Purchaser, and the
assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts to the Purchaser were not free and clear of
all Interests or adverse claims of any kind or nature whatsoever, or if the Purchaser would, or in
the future could, be liable for any of the Interests or adverse claims.
P. The assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts pursuant to the terms
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page7 of 35
-8-
of the Assignment and Assumption Procedures and this Sale Order is integral to the Sale and is
in the best interests of the Debtor and its estate, creditors and all other parties-in-interest, and
represents the reasonable exercise of sound and prudent business judgment by the Trustee. The
Purchaser provided adequate assurance of its future performance under the Assigned Contracts
within the meaning of sections 365(b)(1)(c) and (f)(2)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any
counterparty to any of the Assigned Contracts that has not objected to the assumption and
assignment to the Purchaser of the applicable contract or lease, or that has withdrawn its
objection, is deemed to have consented to the assumption and assignment of such Assigned
Contracts.
Q. The transfer of the Assets (including any individual elements of the Sale) to the
Purchaser (i) does not constitute any avoidable transfers under the Bankruptcy Code or under
applicable bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy law, and (ii) except as otherwise set forth in the
Purchase Agreement, does not, and will not, subject the Purchaser to any liability whatsoever
with respect to the operation of the Debtor’s business prior to the closing of the Sale or by reason
of such transfer under the laws of the United States, any state, territory, or possession thereof, or
the District of Columbia, based, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, on any theory of law or
equity including, without limitation, any laws affecting antitrust, successor, transferee or
vicarious liability.
R. In satisfaction of sections 363(d) and 541(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer
of property as contemplated by the Sale complies with applicable non-bankruptcy law governing
such a transfer.
S. The legal and factual bases set forth in the Sale Motion and at the Sale Hearing
establish just cause for the relief granted herein.
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page8 of 35
-9-
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:
1. Sale Motion. The Sale Motion is hereby granted as provided herein.
2. Objections. All objections to the Sale Motion and the relief requested therein that
have not been withdrawn, waived or settled, and all reservations of rights included in such
objections are hereby overruled on the merits and denied.
3. Sale Approval. The Sale and all of the terms and conditions and transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are hereby authorized and approved pursuant to
sections 363(b), 363(f) and 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to section 363(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code, the Trustee is authorized to consummate the Sale pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. The Trustee is authorized
to execute and deliver, and empowered to perform under, consummate, and implement the

sales law, doctrine or theory of successor liability, or similar theory or basis of liability except
for the assumption of the Assigned Contracts as expressly provided in the Purchase Agreement.
Except to the extent the Purchaser assumes the Assigned Contracts and liabilities pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, neither the purchase of the Assets by the Purchaser or any of its affiliates
nor the fact that the Purchaser or any of its affiliates are using any of the Purchased Assets
previously operated by the Debtor will cause the Purchaser or any of its affiliates to be deemed a
successor in any respect to the Debtor’s business or incur any liability derived therefrom within
the meaning of any foreign, federal, state or local revenue, pension, the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), tax, labor, employment, environmental, or other law, rule
or regulation (including, without limitation, filing requirements under any such laws, rules or
regulations), or under any products liability law or doctrine with respect to the Debtor’s liability

Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page12 of 35

this Order), which is attached hereto designated for assignment to the Purchaser pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, subject to the Assignment and Assumption Procedures approved in the Bid
Procedures Order. In accordance with sections 365(b)(2) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code, upon
transfer of the Assigned Contracts to the Purchaser, (i) the Purchaser shall have all of the rights
of the Trustee thereunder and each provision of such Assigned Contracts shall remain in full
force and effect for the benefit of the Purchaser notwithstanding any provision in any such
contract, lease, or in applicable law that prohibits, restricts or limits in any way such assignment
or transfer, and (ii) none of the Assigned Contracts may be terminated, or the rights of any party
modified in any respect, including pursuant to any “change of control” clause, by any other party
thereto as a result of the Sale.

-14-
14. Assignment Shall Not Constitute a Default. The assignment by the Trustee of
Assigned Contracts to the Purchaser shall not constitute a default under any of the Assigned
Contracts. Any provisions in any Assigned Contracts that prohibit or condition the assignment
of such Assigned Contracts or allows the party to such Assigned Contracts to terminate,
recapture, impose any penalty, condition on renewal or extension or modify any term or
condition upon the assignment of such Assigned Contracts constitute unenforceable anti-
assignment provisions that are void and of no force and effect. All other requirements and
conditions under sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code for the assumption by the Trustee
and assignment to the Purchaser of the Assigned Contracts have been satisfied.
15. No Assignment Fees. There shall be no assignment fees, increases, rent-
acceleration, or any other fees charged to the Purchaser or the Trustee as a result of the
assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts.

practical, the Cure Amounts to which no objections have been filed, or to which the Purchaser,
the Trustee, and an applicable non-Debtor contract party have agreed as to the allowed Cure
Amount (collectively, the “Undisputed Cure Amounts”), shall be paid pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement. On or as promptly after the determination by the Court of any disputed Cure
Amounts as is reasonably practical (collectively, the “Disputed Cure Amounts” and together
with the Undisputed Cure Amounts, the “Cure Amounts”), shall be paid pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement.
17. Cure Payments. The payment of the Undisputed Cure Amounts and the Disputed
Cure Amounts (i) shall be deemed to discharge the Trustee’s obligation to cure any defaults
under the Assigned Contracts under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) shall effect a cure
Case:16-14761-MER Doc#:309-1 Filed:04/04/18 Entered:04/04/18 14:07:43 Page14 of 35
-15-
of all defaults existing as of the date that such Assigned Contracts are assumed as required by
section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (iii) compensate, or provide adequate assurance of
prompt compensation to any non-debtor party to any of the Assigned Contracts for any actual
pecuniary loss resulting from any default under any of the Assigned Contracts.
18. Cooperation by Counterparties. All counterparties to the Assigned Contracts shall
cooperate and expeditiously execute and deliver, upon the reasonable requests of a Purchaser,
and shall not charge such Purchaser for, any instruments, applications, consents, or other
documents which may be required or requested by any public or quasi-public authority or other
party or entity to effectuate the applicable transfers in connection with the Sale.
19. Modifications. The Agreement and any related agreements, documents, or other
instruments may be modified, amended, or supplemented by the parties thereto, in writing signed
by both parties, and in accordance with the terms thereof, without further order of this Court, to
the extent that any such modification, amendment, or supplement is not material.

upon and govern the acts of all persons and entities, including, without limitation, the Debtor, its
estate, members, managers and shareholders of the Debtor, all creditors of the Debtor (whether
known or unknown), the Purchaser, all interested parties, and their respective successors and
permitted assigns, including, without limitation, any trustee appointed in a Chapter 7 case if this
case is converted from Chapter 11 and all non-Debtor counterparties identified in Annex 3 and
all other non-Debtor parties asserting any Interests or adverse claims in the Purchased Assets.
21. Non-Severability. The provisions of this Sale Order are non-severable and
mutually dependent.

22. Successful Bidder’s Failure To Close. In the event that the Successful Bidder
fails to close under the Purchase Agreement, the Trustee is authorized to proceed to sell the
Purchased Assets to a designated Backup Bidder in accordance with the Bid Procedures Order
and Bid Procedures. In such circumstance, the Trustee shall submit a revised proposed Sale
Order and Purchase Agreement with the applicable Backup Bidder.
23. Retention of Jurisdiction. This Court shall retain jurisdiction on all matters
pertaining to the relief granted herein, including to interpret, implement, and enforce the terms
and provisions of this Sale Order and the Purchase Agreement, all amendments thereto, any
waivers and consents thereunder, and of each of the agreements executed in connection therewith
in all respects, including, but not limited to, retaining jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute
relating to the Sale or the proceeds thereof, the assumption, assignment and cure of any of the
