Additional information regarding the Debtor’s business and the reasons for filing the Chapter 11 Case is set forth in the Declaration of Julian Nikolchev in Support of Dextera Surgical Inc.’s First Day Motions [Docket No. 2]. 6.

By this Motion, the Debtor seeks entry of an order, substantially in the form of the Proposed Order, authorizing the Debtor (i) to retain Arch & Beam to provide the Debtor with interim management services, a CRO and the additional personnel described in the Engagement Agreement (the “Engagement Personnel”), and (ii) to designate Mr. English as the Debtor’s CRO, nunc pro tunc to March 19, 2018. Basis for Relief 9. In consideration of the complexity of the Debtor’s business, the Debtor has determined that the services of an experienced restructuring manager will best enable the Debtor to expeditiously and effectively undertake the steps needed to prepare the analyses needed to finalize a plan of liquidation and wind down the Debtor. Moreover, the Debtor anticipates that the employment with the company of Robert Newell, the sole remaining officer and employee of the Debtor at this time, will be terminated within the next two months. As such, the Debtor 24408898.2 03/20/2018 3 Case 17-12913-KJC Doc 211 Filed 03/20/18 Page 4 of 12 requires an interim manager to oversee its post-Closing operations during the wind down and plan process. 10. Mr. English and the Engagement Personnel are well qualified to act on the Debtor’s behalf in these matters given their knowledge and expertise with respect to chapter 11 proceedings. Arch & Beam’s professionals have extensive experience in advising debtors in chapter 11 cases and have provided consulting, interim management and financial advisory services to numerous debtors, chapter 11 trustees, creditors’ committees and buyers in chapter 11 proceedings. 11. The Debtor selected Mr. English to serve as its CRO in the present case because it believes that he has significant relevant experience and is well-qualified to assist the Debtor with its restructuring efforts. Mr. English, a senior managing director at Arch & Beam, has over twenty years’ experience in strategy, operations and turnaround consulting. He has held the title of CEO, COO or CFO in firms ranging from $5 to $150 million in revenues and has been a trusted advisor to leaders of multi-billion dollar corporate divisions. His work has also included roles as chapter 11 financial advisor, federal receiver, assignee for assignments for the benefit of creditors and advisor to a chapter 11 trustee. He is a Certified Turnaround Professional (Turnaround Management Association) and a Certified Insolvency and Restructuring Advisor (Association of Insolvency and Restructuring Advisors). 12. Because Arch & Beam is well qualified to deal effectively with matters that may arise in the context of this Chapter 11 Case, the Debtor submits that the retention of Arch & Beam and the designation of Mr. English on the terms and conditions set forth herein is necessary and appropriate, in the best interest of the Debtor’s estate, creditors, and all other parties in interest, and should be granted in all respects. 24408898.2 03/20/2018 4 Case 17-12913-KJC Doc 211 Filed 03/20/18 Page 5 of 12 Scope of Services 13. Subject to approval by the Court, the Debtor proposes to retain Arch & Beam to provide the Debtor with a CRO and the other Engagement Personnel as necessary on the terms and conditions set forth in the Engagement Agreement, except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein or in any order granting this Motion. 14. Generally, the Engagement Agreement contemplates that Mr. English and the other Engagement Personnel shall perform services customarily performed by a chief restructuring officer. This may include, but is not limited to, supporting the Debtor by:2 (a) Assisting the Debtor with post-closing and operational wind-down activities, including any transitions services; (b) Providing consulting related to the drafting of a disclosure statement and plan of liquidation or reorganization, including the plan confirmation process; (c) Assisting the Debtor with the collection of accounts receivables, liquidation of other assets and payment of administrative expenses; (d) Performing administrative wind-down tasks, including final SEC reporting requirements; (e) Performing claims and other financial analysis, as required; (f) Providing services post-confirmation that could include plan administration services; (g) Working with the Debtor’s bankruptcy, SEC and litigation legal counsel, as necessary, to implement the Plan and wind-down strategy; (h) Providing analysis and support to legal strategies; and (i) Performing any other customary actions for administration of a bankruptcy case, confirmation of a plan and/or implementation. 2 The summaries of the Engagement Agreement contained in this Motion are provided for purposes of convenience only. In the event of any inconsistency between the summaries contained herein and the terms and provisions of the Engagement Agreement, the terms of the Engagement Agreement shall control unless otherwise set forth herein. 24408898.2 03/20/2018 5 Case 17-12913-KJC Doc 211 Filed 03/20/18 Page 6 of 12 15. These services are necessary to enable the Debtor to finalize its plan of liquidation and successfully complete its restructuring.

  • Boys and Girls by Alice Munro
    Boys and Girls by Alice Munro My father was a fox farmer. That is, he raised silver foxes, in pens; and in the fall and early winter, when their fur was prime, he killed them and skinned them and sold their pelts to the Hudson's Bay Company or the Montreal Fur Traders. These companies supplied us with heroic calendars to hang, one on each side of the kitchen door. Against a background of cold blue sky and black pine forests and treacherous northern rivers, plumed adventures planted the flags of England and or of France; magnificent savages bent their backs to the portage. For several weeks before Christmas, my father worked after supper in the cellar of our house. The cellar was whitewashed, and lit by a hundred-watt bulb over the worktable. My brother Laird and I sat on the top step and watched. My father removed the pelt inside-out from the body of the fox, which looked surprisingly small, mean, and rat-like, deprived of its arrogant weight of fur. The naked, slippery bodies were collected in a sack and buried in the dump. One time the hired man, Henry Bailey, had taken a swipe at me with this sack, saying, "Christmas present!" My mother thought that was not funny. In fact she disliked the whole pelting operation--that was what the killing, skinning, and preparation of the furs was called – and wished it did not have to take place in the house. There was the smell. After the pelt had been stretched inside-out on a long board my father scraped away delicately, removing the little clotted webs of blood vessels, the bubbles of fat; the smell of blood and animal fat, with the strong primitive odour of the fox itself, penetrated all parts of the house.

  • Anthropomorphic Imagery of Animals (Dragons and Horses) in the Works of Michael Ende and C.S
    Degree on English Studies 2016-2017 Anthropomorphic Imagery of Animals (Dragons and Horses) in the Works of Michael Ende and C.S. Lewis. Ágata C. Teixeira Salgado Supervisor: Cristina Jarillot Rodal Department of English and German Philology Abstract For several centuries, anthropomorphism has been a common feature used in fantastic literature; our interest in giving animals and objects human traits – clothing them, making them talk – has influenced the arts. Hence, animals have been typically used to perpetuate morals and humour the readers. Moreover, anthropomorphism’s role in children’s literature has made possible to call for its readers’ attention to grown-up matters allowing them to maintain a certain distance and explore the concerns at hand without getting too involved. Bearing that in mind, the purpose of this study is to explore the role of two kinds of anthropomorphic animals, fantastic and real, to see how these animals intervene in the quest and learnings of the heroes and to understand what lessons they might convey to the readers. In order to do so, the following dissertation will contrast and examine two dragons and two horses from three novels; Artax and Falkor from The Neverending Story by Michael Ende and Bree and Eustace from C.S. Lewis’ collection The Chronicles of Narnia: The Horse and His Boy and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Subsequently, the scrutiny of the relationship between animals and heroes – observing how it develops and affects either the quest, the hero or both - will show that dragons and horses equally serve their masters/friends, function as a guiding voice of reason and encouragement and are incredibly loyal.

  • Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Between Erasure and Exposure: Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in French and Francophone Studies by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall 2015 © Copyright by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Between Erasure and Exposure: Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall Doctor of Philosophy in French and Francophone Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Malina Stefanovska, Chair In my dissertation, I investigate the trend toward intermedial representations of the self in contemporary French personal writing of an autobiographical type. The theoretical framework of my dissertation is based on notions of referentiality presented in La chambre claire, and in essays contemporaneous to Roland Barthes’s by Jean-Luc Nancy, Jacques Derrida, Pierre Bourdieu, and Jean Baudrillard. As I demonstrate, they are in dialogue with it, all the while exploring the boundaries of self-representation in relation to illness and death. At the outset, an analysis of the discourses of photography in France from the 1980s to the early 2000s informs my discussion of representations of an expected death in works by Alix Cléo Roubaud, Jacques Roubaud, Annie Ernaux, and Hervé Guibert. I argue that the legacy of a Barthesian conceptualization of the photograph obliges writers to rethink their stance towards representing the self. Through gestures of erasure and exposure, they create an intermedial aesthetic coupling writing, photography, and film to explore anew certain taboos concerning self and death. Intermediality opens up the notions of referentiality presented in Roland Barthes’s La chambre ii claire: note sure la photographie— the making of traces through writing, memories, and recording the body.

    March 9, 2021 Brenda Mallory Chair White House Council on Environmental Quality 730 Jackson Pl NW Washington, DC 20506 Via email Re: Utility disconnection moratorium for Tennessee Valley Authority Dear Ms. Mallory, Please find attached petitions signed by over 21,500 people from Tennessee and beyond urging the Tennessee Valley Authority to institute a utility shutoff moratorium throughout its service area. As the letters attached state, “Without electricity, people won’t be able to shelter in homes that are a safe temperature, support remote schooling for their kids, or refrigerate their medicines. It is a decision that literally has life-or-death consequences.” For several months throughout the pandemic, advocates have urged TVA to institute such a moratorium, but to no avail. We now call upon President Biden to act, by issuing an Executive Order directing TVA to keep people’s power on-- the only responsible option during a pandemic. Please also find attached a memo outlining the President’s authority to issue an Executive Order to this effect. Sincerely, Tom Cormons Executive Director Appalachian Voices Erich Pica President Friends of the Earth Cc: Gina McCarthy, White House National Security Advisor Representative Peter DeFazio, Chair, House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Senator Tom Carper, Chair, Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works Representative Frank Pallone, Chair, House Committee on Energy and Commerce Tennessee Congressional delegation Attachments: Executive Actions for Immediate COVID relief and economic recovery via the Tennessee Valley Authority, Appalachian Voices Appalachian Voices petition Appalachia Voices petition signatories Friends of the Earth petition Friends of the Earth petition signatories EXECUTIVE ACTIONS FOR IMMEDIATE COVID RELIEF AND ECONOMIC RECOVERY VIA THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY The Tennessee Valley Authority was established in the 1930s by a federal mandate to bring flood relief, economic stimulus and improved quality of life to the people of the Tennessee Valley.
