The principal conditions to such additional drawings relate to the company obtaining a reaffirmation of the Air Transportation Stabilization Board’s (ATSB) conditional approval of the $1 billion loan facility guarantee from the ATSB as exit financing under a plan of reorganization acceptable to the ATSB. [STRONG]But, such ATSB reaffirmation is likely to be tied to the company achieving additional labor cost savings and efficiencies necessary, in the judgment of both the company's management and RSA, to allow the company to weather the current industry revenue environment[/STRONG].â€[BR][BR]Dr. David Bronner, executive director of RSA said, “We continue to be impressed by the caliber of the company's executive management and the cooperative nature of its working relationship with its labor groups. Time is of the essence for the company and its labor groups to hammer out additional cost savings, but RSA remains supportive of, and confident in, the collective ability of the company's principal stakeholders to arrive at solutions likely to be acceptable for RSA to go forward with its $240 million equity commitment.â€[/FONT][!---------------------------------------------------------- Main Home Page Content Ends Here --------------------------------------------------------------][/FONT][/SPAN]
If they do not comply, Mr. Bronner said in the interview, the airline would go out of business and be liquidated in bankruptcy court. "What's their alternative?" he asked rhetorically. "If they don't want to do this, we'll Chapter 7 it."
