The Trust is also liquidating its Forfeited Assets (see Note 7 for additional information).2, the Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any estimate of future net recoveries from litigation and settlement, since the Company cannot reasonably estimate them.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three and Nine Months Ended March 31,September 30, 2022 and 2021
(Unaudited)
The Company is required to liquidate its assets and distribute available cash to the Trust beneficiaries. The liquidation activities are carried out by the Trust, the Wind-Down Entity and the Wind-Down Subsidiaries. As of MarchSeptember 31,30, 2022, the Company estimates that the liquidation activities will be completed by February 15, 2024.

As more fully discussed and defined in Note 2, the Company uses the Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The Trust currently operates as 1one reportable segment comprised primarily of real estate assets held for sale.

Net assets in liquidation represent the remaining estimated aggregate value available to Trust beneficiaries upon liquidation, with no discount for the timing of proceeds (undiscounted).  DueNet liquidation proceeds, other recoveries and actual liquidation costs may differ materially from the estimated amounts due to the unpredictability of real estate selling prices, the impact of the COVID-19 virus and other global health crises (see below), as well as the uncertainty in the timing of liquidation of the real estate and other assets, net liquidation proceeds, other recoveries and actual liquidation costs may differ materially from the estimated amounts.assets.

The Trust’s expectations about the amount of any additional distributions and when they will be paid are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based on certain estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect.  As a result, the actual amount of any additional distributions may differ materially, perhaps in adverse ways, from the Trust estimates. Furthermore, it is not possible to predict the timing of any additional distributions and any such distributions may not be made within the timing referenced in the consolidated financial statements.

No assurance can be given that total distributions will equal or exceed the estimate of net assets in liquidation presented in the consolidated statements of net assets in liquidation.

As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, 3 of the Wind-Down Subsidiaries’ construction sites were closed for about three months during the summer of 2020. NaN construction site was closed for about two weeks in late December 2020.  The continued spread of COVID-19 presents challenges for the Company and its vendors, mainly due to labor and product supply shortages. The Company continues to observeobserves health and safety guidelines, including allowing its employees to work remotely. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 outbreakvirus and other global health crises on its activities, including the cost and timing of construction the timing of completion of the single-family homes that are under construction,related services, the time needed to market and sell the single-family homes,its remaining real estate assets and the price at which these single-family homesreal estate assets will be sold.sold.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 outbreakvirus and other global health crises will depend on many factors, some of which cannot be foreseen, including the duration, severity, and geographic concentrations of the pandemic and any resurgence of the disease.

2)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and for the period then ended. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are revised in the period that available information supports a change in the carrying amount.

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

Under the liquidation basis of accounting, all assets are recorded at their estimated net realizable value or liquidation value, which represents the estimated amount of net cash that will be received upon the disposition of the assets (on an undiscounted basis). The measurement of real estate assets held for sale is based on the terms of current contracts (if any), estimates and other indications of sales value, net of estimated selling costs. To determine the value of real estate assets held for sale, the Company considered the three traditional approaches to value (cost, income and sales comparison) commonly used by the real estate appraisal community. The applicability and relevancy of each valuation approach as applied may differ by asset. In most cases, the sales comparison approach was accorded the greatest weight. This approach compares a property to other properties with similar characteristics that have recently sold. To validate management’s estimate, the Company also considersconsidered opinions from qualified real estate professionals and local real estate brokers and, in some cases, obtained third party appraisals. The estimated selling costs range from 5.0% to 6.0%6.5% of the property sales price.

Liabilities, including estimated costs associated with implementing and completing the Plan, are measured in accordance with U.S. GAAP that otherwise applies to those liabilities. The Company has also recorded the estimated development costs to be incurred to prepare the assets for sale as well as the estimated holding costs to be incurred until the projected sale date and the estimated general and administrative costs to be incurred until the completion of the liquidation of the Company.Company and estimated reserves for contingencies. When estimating development costs, the Company considered third party construction contracts and estimates of costs to complete based on construction status, progress and projected completion timing. Estimated development costs also include the costs of design and furnishings necessary to prepare and stage the homes for marketing.marketing as well as an accrual for warranty claims. Holding cost estimates consider property taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other costs to be incurred until the sale of the property is closed. Projected general and administrative cost estimates take into account operating costs through the completion of the liquidation of the Company.

These estimated amounts are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of net assets in liquidation.  All changes in the estimated liquidation value of the Company’s real estate held for sale, or other assets and liabilities are reflected as a change to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.

The Company does not record any amount from the future settlement of unresolved Causes of Action or recoveries from Fair Fund or Forfeited Assets (including those that may be settled, but subject to court or other regulatory agency approval) in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since they cannot be reasonably estimated. The amount recovered may be material to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the estimated net realizable values, liquidation costs and the estimated date of the completion of the liquidation of the Company and records any significant changes. The Company will also revalue an asset when it is under contract for sale and the buyer’s contingencies have been removed. During the period when this occurs, the carrying value of the asset and the estimated closing and other costs will be adjusted, if necessary. If the Company has a change in its plan for the disposition of an asset, the carrying value will be adjusted to reflect this change in the period that the change is approved. The change in value may include the accrued liquidation costs related to the asset.

Other Assets

The Company recognizes recoveries from the settlement of unresolved Causes of Action when an agreement has beenis executed and collectability is reasonably assured. An allowance for uncollectible settlement installment receivables is recorded when there is doubt about the collectability of the receivable.  Insurance claims are recognized when the insurance company accepts the claim or if a claim is pending and the recoverable amount can be estimated. The Company records escrow receivables at the amount that is expected to be received when the escrow receivable is released. The Forfeited Assets (Note 7) received from the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), other than cash, have been recorded at their estimated net realizable value. In addition,addition, the Company recognizes other amounts to be received based on contractual terms or when the amounts to be received are certain.

Accrued Liquidation Costs

The Company accrues for estimated liquidation costs to the extent they are reasonably determinable. These costs consist of (a) estimated development costs of the single-family homes, under development,including construction and other project related costs, architectural and engineering, project management, city fees, bond payments (net of refunds), furnishings, marketing and other costs; (b) estimated holding costs, including property taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities and other; and (c) estimated general and administrative costs including payroll, legal and other professional fees, trustee and board fees, rent and other office related expenses, interest on financing and other general and administrative costs to operate the Company.Company and estimated reserves for contingent liabilities.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers short-term investments that have a maturity date of ninety days or less at the time of investment to be a cash equivalent. The Company’s cash equivalents include money market savings deposits and money market funds.with financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”).

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash includes cash that can only be used for certain specified purposes.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. At times, balances in any one financial institution may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)FDIC insurance limits. The Company mitigates this risk by depositing its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in high-credit quality financial institutions. In addition, the Company uses strategies to reduce deposit balances at any one financial institution consistent with FDIC insurance limits.

Income Taxes

The Trust is intended to be treated as a grantor trust for income tax purposes and, accordingly, is not subject to federal or state income tax on any income earned or gain recognized by the Trust. The Trust’s beneficiaries will be treated as the owner of a pro rata portion of each asset, including cash and each liability received by and held by the Trust. Each beneficiary will be required to report on his or her federal and state income tax return his or her pro rata share of taxable income, including gains and losses recognized by the Trust. Accordingly, there is no provision for federal or state income taxes recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The Company regularly analyzes its various federal and state filing positions and only recognizes the income tax effect in the consolidated financial statements when certain criteria regarding uncertain income tax positions have been met. The Company believes that its income tax positions would more likely than not be sustained upon examination by all relevant taxing authorities. Therefore, no provision for uncertain income tax positions has been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

9)Credit Agreement

On June 19, 2020, 2 wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Wind-Down Entity entered into a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit (the “LOC”) with a financial institution. The LOC had an original maturity of June 19, 2022. The LOC requires the borrowers to establish an interest reserve of $1,750,000 (Note 4), which is to be used to pay the potential monthly interest payments. Outstanding borrowings bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.50% per annum. Indebtedness under the LOC was secured by a deed of trust on one property, the personal property associated therewith and the interest reserve. The Wind-Down Entity is the guarantor of the LOC.

Overview

Pursuant to the Plan, the Trust was formed on February 15, 2019 to hold, either directly or indirectly through the Wind-Down Entity and the Wind-Down Subsidiaries, the assets and equity interests formerly owned by the Debtors. Each of the real properties formerly owned by the Debtors was, as of February 15, 2019, owned by one of the Wind-Down Subsidiaries. The purpose of the Wind-Down Entity and the Wind-Down Subsidiaries is to develop (as applicable), market and sell those properties to generate cash. Assets formerly owned by the Debtors other than real estate assets and certain cash were transferred to the Trust. The purpose of the Trust is to receive remittances of cash from the Wind-Down Entity, to resolve disputed claims, to prosecute the Causes of Action, to pay allowed administrative and priority claims, as defined in the Plan, and, subject to the payment of Trust expenses and the retention of various reserves, to make distributions of cash to Interestholders in accordance with the Plan.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
The Trust operates pursuant to the Plan and the Trust Agreement. The Trust was formed as a Delaware statutory trust and is administered by the Liquidation Trustee under the supervision of its Supervisory Board. The Wind-Down Entity, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust, operates pursuant to the Plan and the Wind-Down Entity LLC Agreement. The Wind-Down Entity was formed as a Delaware limited liability company and is administered by its Board of Managers, one of which is the chief executive officer. One member of the Board of Managers is also a member of the Supervisory Board of the Trust.

The Bankruptcy Court has retained certain jurisdictions regarding the Trust, the Liquidation Trustee, the Supervisory Board, the Wind-Down Entity, the Board of Managers, and assets of the Trust and the Wind-Down Entity, including the determination of all disputes arising out of or related to administration of the Trust and the Wind-Down Entity and its subsidiaries.

As of March 31,
The Trust operates pursuant to the Plan and the Trust Agreement. The Trust was formed as a Delaware statutory trust and is administered by the Liquidation Trustee under the supervision of its Supervisory Board. The Wind-Down Entity, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust, operates pursuant to the Plan and the Wind-Down Entity LLC Agreement. The Wind-Down Entity was formed as a Delaware limited liability company and is administered by its Board of Managers, one of which is the chief executive officer.

The Bankruptcy Court has retained certain jurisdictions regarding the Trust, the Liquidation Trustee, the Supervisory Board, the Wind-Down Entity, the Board of Managers, and assets of the Trust and the Wind-Down Entity, including the determination of all disputes arising out of or related to administration of the Trust and the Wind-Down Entity and its subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2022, the number of Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding in each class is as follows:

Class of InterestNumber Outstanding
Class A Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding in each class is as follows:

Class of InterestNumber Outstanding11,514,190
Class B Liquidation Trust Interests675,617 
Class A Liquidation Trust Interests11,516,439
Class B Liquidation Trust Interests675,617

For each of the classes of Liquidation Trust Interests, the number of Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding will increase to the extent that the disputed claims become allowed claims. In addition, the number of Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding will decrease to the extent that disputed claims are settled by cancelling previously issued Liquidation Trust Interests.

Since the Plan Effective Date through March 31, 2022, the Wind-Down Subsidiaries have disposed of approximately 143 properties for aggregate net sales proceeds of approximately $481.73 million. During the period from April 1, 2022 through May 13, 2022, the Company did not sell any real estate assets. As of March 31, 2022, the Company owned seven real estate assets (including two single-family homes under construction) with a gross carrying value of approximately $100.54 million. Therefore, it is unlikely that the net proceeds for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2022 will be indicative of future net proceeds, which are likely to be significantly lower. In addition, it may take longer to sell the properties than the Company has estimated. The Company expects to complete the liquidation of its assets during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.

For each of the classes of Liquidation Trust Interests, the number of Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding will increase to the extent that the disputed claims become allowed claims. In addition, the number of Liquidation Trust Interests outstanding will decrease to the extent that disputed claims are settled by cancelling previously issued Liquidation Trust Interests.

Since the Plan Effective Date through September 30, 2022, the Wind-Down Subsidiaries have disposed of approximately 145 properties for aggregate net sales proceeds of approximately $551.95 million. As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned five real estate assets (including one single-family home and one other real estate asset listed for sale) with a gross carrying value of approximately $30.97 million. Given the significantly smaller inventory of remaining real estate assets when compared to the inventory as of the Plan Effective Date, the amount of net proceeds from the sale of real estate assets in the future is likely to be less than the amount realized from the Plan Effective Date through September 30, 2022. The Company expects to complete the liquidation of its assets during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The Company’s only sources for meeting its capital requirements are its cash and cash equivalents, proceeds from the sale of its real estate assets, collection of escrow receivables, recoveries on Causes of Action and proceeds from the sale of Forfeited Assets1. The Company’s primary uses of funds are and will continue to be for distributions, development costs including warranty claims, holding costs and general and administrative costs, all of which the Company expects to be able to adequately fund over the next twelve months from its primary sources of capital.

Capital Resources

In addition to consolidated cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 of approximately $36.06 million (of which approximately $4.19 million is restricted), the capital resources available to the Company are as follows:


Sales of Real Estate:  The Wind-Down Group is in the process of marketing and selling its real estate assets, all of which are held for sale.  One single-family home and one other real estate asset was listed for sale as of September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned a total of five real estate assets with a gross carrying value of approximately $30.96 million. The majority of the gross carrying value is concentrated in one single-family home. Based on the remaining assets of the Company, future net proceeds will be significantly less than the Company has realized in prior periods.


Escrow Receivables:  As of September 30, 2022, the Wind-Down Group had escrow receivables relating to two single-family homes that had been sold and for which it was completing punch list items and/or awaiting the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.


Causes of Action Recoveries:  During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $0.19 million from the settlement of Causes of Action. There can be no assurance that the amounts the Company recovers from settling Causes of Action in the future will be consistent with the amount recovered in prior periods.


1The Trust is required to distribute the net sale proceeds from liquidating the Forfeited Assets to the Qualifying Victims. Qualifying Victims are the former holders of Class 3 and Class 5 Claims and their permitted assigns. Former holders of Class 4 Claims are not Qualifying Victims. Because of the requirement to distribute the net sale proceeds of the Forfeited Assets to the Qualifying Victims only, the Forfeited Assets as of September 30, 2022 are presented in the consolidated statement of net assets as restricted net assets in liquidation. As of September 30, 2022, 11,436,259 of the 11,514,190 Class A Interests were held by Qualifying Victims. Of the 13,875 Class A Interests relating to unresolved claims as of September 30, 2022, 1,880 would be held by Qualifying Victims.
oPaid holding costs of approximately $0.77 million.


oPaid general and administrative costs of approximately $4.29 million, including approximately $0.21 million of board member fees and expenses, approximately $1.90 million of payroll and other general and administrative costs and approximately $2.18 million of professional fees.

During the ninethree months ended March 31,September 30, 2022, the Company:Trust sold some of its Forfeited Assets and received net proceeds of approximately $0.58 million.  As noted earlier, net sale proceeds from liquidating the Forfeited Assets are to be distributed only to Qualifying Victims.


oDeclared two distributions, both of $3.44 per Class A Interest, which totaled approximately $80.00 million.


oSold the wine and the gold Forfeited Assets for net proceeds of approximately $0.49 million.
 Uses of Liquidity


oCompleted construction of one single-family home (642 St. Cloud).
The primary uses of the Company’s liquidity are to pay (a) distributions payable, (b) development costs including warranty claims, (c) holding costs including maintenance and repair costs, and (d) general and administrative costs. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s total liabilities were approximately $29.00 million. The total liabilities recorded as of September 30, 2022 may not be indicative of the costs paid in future periods, which may be significantly higher.


oSold four single-family homes and settled two secured loans for net proceeds of approximately $64.40 million. One of the single-family homes was under construction.
Given current cash and cash equivalent balances, projected sales of real estate assets, Causes of Action recoveries, distributions declared, and expected cash needs, the Company does not expect a deficiency in liquidity in the next twelve months. Due to the uncertain nature of future net sales proceeds, recoveries and costs to be incurred, it is not possible to be certain that the current liquidity will be adequate to cover all future financial needs of the Company.  Creating contingent obligation agreements and/or seeking methods to reduce professional costs, including legal fees, and administrative costs are strategies that could be undertaken to address liquidity issues should they arise. These strategies could impact the Company’s ability to maximize recoveries from the settlement of unresolved Causes of Action.


oRecorded approximately $24.81 million from the settlement of the two pending actions against Comerica Bank, the California Class Action and the Delaware Adversary Action.
Distributions


oSigned agreements to settle other Causes of Action for payment to the Trust of approximately $1.87 million.
Distributions will be made at the sole discretion of the Liquidation Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the Trust Agreement. As of November 10, 2022, the Liquidation Trustee has declared ten distributions to the Class A Interestholders. The distributions include a cash distribution on account of the then-allowed claims and a deposit is made into a restricted cash account for amounts that are or may become payable (a) in respect of Class A Interests that may be issued in the future upon the allowance of unresolved bankruptcy claims, (b) in respect of Class A Interests on account of recently allowed claims, (c) for holders of Class A Interests who failed to cash distribution checks mailed in respect of prior distributions, (d)  for distributions that were withheld due to pending avoidance actions and (e) for holders of Class A Interests for which the Trust is waiting for further beneficiary information.


oPaid construction costs of approximately $9.47 million relating to single-family homes under development.
As claims are resolved, additional Class A Interests may be issued or cancelled (see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 26, 2022, “Part 1, Item 1. Business, D. Plan Provisions Regarding the Company, 2. Treatment under the Plan of holders of claims against and equity interests in the Debtors and 3. Assets and liabilities of the Company”). Therefore, the total amount of a distribution declared may change between the date declared and the date paid. The Liquidation Trustee will continue to assess the adequacy of funds held and expects to make additional cash distributions on account of Class A Interests, but does not currently know the timing or amount of any such distribution(s).


oPaid holding costs of approximately $1.90 million.
Sections 7.6 and 7.18 of the Plan provide that distributions that have not been cashed within 180 calendar days of their issuance shall be null and void and the holder of the associated Liquidation Trust Interests “shall be deemed to have forfeited its rights to any reserved and future Distributions under the Plan,” with such amounts to become “Available Cash” of the Trust for all purposes.  On February 1, 2022, the Trust sent letters to the holders of the Class A Interests who had failed to cash distribution checks in respect of prior distributions, which checks were issued more than 180 days prior to the date of the letter. The letter informed each recipient that, unless the Trust was contacted on or before February 28, 2022, such recipient’s reserved and future distributions would be deemed forfeited in accordance with the Plan  The Trust provided this final notice simply as a one-time courtesy and reserves its rights to strictly enforce the Plan’s forfeiture provisions, and any other provision of the Plan, against any person (including any recipient of the final notice) at any time in the future, without further notice.


oPaid general and administrative costs of approximately $12.56 million, including approximately $0.56 million of board member fees and expenses, approximately $4.68 million of payroll and other general and administrative costs and approximately $7.32 million of professional fees.

oSold five single-family home, two lots and eleven other properties for net proceeds of approximately $121.16 million. One of the single-family homes was under construction and the buyer assumed the remaining obligations to complete the construction of the property of approximately $11.25 million.
 Management believes that, since its inception, the Wind-Down Entity has made substantial progress toward completion of its liquidation activities and is nearing the end of the liquidation of its real estate portfolio. Holders of Liquidation Trust Interests are advised that future distributions from the Trust will be limited. Once the Company’s remaining real property assets have been liquidated and the net proceeds resulting therefrom, net of reserves, have been distributed, further distribution(s) will be materially reliant on future recoveries from litigation, which are uncertain and the amount and timing of which are difficult to determine.


oSigned agreements to settle Causes of Action for payment to the Trust of approximately $8.44 million.


oRecorded Forfeited Assets with an estimated net realizable value of approximately $3.46 million.


oPaid construction costs of approximately $22.04 million relating to single-family homes under development.


oPaid holding costs of approximately $4.13 million.


oPaid general and administrative costs of approximately $14.39 million, including approximately $0.68 million of board member fees and expenses, approximately $6.35 million of payroll and other general and administrative costs and approximately $7.36 million of professional fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The Company’s primary sources for meeting its capital requirements are its cash and cash equivalents, availability under the LOC, proceeds from the sale of its real estate assets and recoveries from Causes of Action. The Company’s primary uses of funds are and will continue to be for distributions, development costs, holding costs and general and administrative costs, all of which the Company expects to be able to adequately fund over the next twelve months from its primary sources of capital.

Capital Resources

In addition to consolidated cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 of approximately $43.49 million (of which approximately $9.10 million is restricted), the capital resources available to the Company and its uses of liquidity are as follows:

25


PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

oRevolving Line of Credit:  On June 19, 2020, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Wind-Down Entity entered into a $25.00 million LOC.  On February 11, 2021, the LOC was amended.  Two additional wholly owned subsidiaries of the Wind-Down Entity were joined to the LOC as co-borrowers and two properties were added as replacement collateral. The maturity date of the LOC was changed to January 31, 2023 with an option to extend for one additional year, subject to the availability of collateral. The LOC required the borrowers to establish an interest reserve of $1.75 million, which is to be used to pay the potential monthly interest payments. Outstanding borrowings bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.50% per annum. Indebtedness under  the LOC is secured by a deed of trust on two properties, the personal property associated therewith and the interest reserve. The Wind-Down Entity is the guarantor of the LOC. The Company is required to keep a cash balance of $20.00 million on deposit with the lender in order to avoid a non-compliance fee of 2% of the shortfall in the required deposit and is required to comply with various covenants.  No amounts were outstanding under the LOC as of March 31, 2022 or May 13, 2022.
Contractual Obligations


oSales of Real Estate Assets: The Wind-Down Entity and the Wind-Down Subsidiaries are in the process of developing, marketing and selling their real estate assets, all of which are held for sale. As of March 31, 2022, the Company owned a total of seven real estate assets with a gross carrying value of approximately $100.54 million. The majority of the gross carrying value is concentrated in the three single-family homes. Four single-family homes were under construction; two that are owned as of March 31, 2022,  one that was sold in December 2021 and one that was sold in May 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company settled one secured loan for net proceeds of approximately $725,000. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company sold four single-family homes and settled two secured loans for net proceeds of approximately $64,405,000. It is unlikely that the net proceeds for the three or nine months ended March 31, 2022 will be indicative of future net proceeds, which are likely to  be significantly lower. In addition, it may take longer to sell the properties than the Company has estimated.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has contractual commitments related to construction contracts totaling approximately $0.60 million. The Company has an office lease that expires in January 2023. The Company has one six-month option to extend the lease. The Company expects that it will continue to lease office space until the liquidation process is completed.

Critical Accounting Policies and Practices

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies and practices that the Company believes are the most critical are discussed below. These accounting policies and practices require management to make decisions on subjective and/or complex matters that may inherently be uncertain. Estimates are required to prepare the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Significant estimates, judgments and assumptions are required in a number of areas, including, but not limited to, the sales price of real estate assets, selling costs, development costs, holding costs, potential warranty claims, and general and administrative costs to be incurred until the completion of the liquidation of the Company and estimated reserves for contingent liabilities. In many instances, changes in the accounting estimates are likely to occur from period to period. Actual results may differ from the estimates. The Company believes the current assumptions and other considerations used in preparing the consolidated financial statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s net assets in liquidation.

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

Under the Liquidation Basis of Accounting, all assets are recorded at their estimated net realizable value or liquidation value, which represents the estimated amount of net cash that may be received upon the disposition of the assets (on an undiscounted basis). Liabilities are measured in accordance with U.S. GAAP that otherwise applies to those liabilities. The Company has not recorded any amount from the future settlement of unresolved Causes of Action or Fair Fund recoveries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements because they cannot be reasonably estimated.

Valuation of Real Estate

The measurement of real estate assets held for sale is based on current contracts (if any), estimates and other indications of sales value, net of estimated selling costs. To determine the value of real estate assets held for sale, the Company considered the three traditional approaches to value (cost, income and sales comparison) commonly used by the real estate appraisal community. The applicability and relevancy of each valuation approach as applied may differ by asset. In most cases, the sales comparison approach was accorded the greatest weight. This approach compares a property to other properties with similar characteristics that have recently sold. To validate management’s estimate, the Company also considers opinions from qualified real estate professionals and local real estate brokers and, in some cases, has obtained third party appraisals.

oRecoveries: During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $0.47 million and $26.68 million, respectively, from the settlement of Causes of Action. The recoveries for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 include approximately $0 and $24.81 million from Comerica Bank. There can be no assurance that the amounts the Company recovers from settling Causes of Action in the future will be consistent with the amount recovered during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

Uses of Liquidity

The primary uses of the Company’s liquidity are to pay (a) distributions payable, (b) development costs, (c) holding costs, and (d) general and administrative costs. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s total liabilities were approximately $47.50 million. The total liabilities recorded as of March 31, 2022 may not be indicative of the costs paid in future periods, which may be significantly higher.

Given current cash and cash equivalent balances, projected sales of real estate assets, availability under the LOC, Causes of Action recoveries, distributions declared and expected cash needs, the Company does not expect a deficiency in liquidity in the next twelve months. Due to the uncertain nature of future net sales proceeds, recoveries and costs to be incurred, it is not possible to be certain that the current liquidity will be adequate to cover all future financial needs of the Company.  Creating contingent obligation agreements and/or seeking methods to reduce professional costs, including legal fees, and administrative costs are strategies that could be undertaken to address liquidity issues should they arise. These strategies could impact the Company’s ability to maximize recoveries from the settlement of unresolved Causes of Action.

Distributions

Distributions will be made at the sole discretion of the Liquidation Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the Trust Agreement. As of May 13, 2022, the Liquidation Trustee has declared nine distributions to the Class A Interestholders. The distributions are paid on account of the then-allowed claims and a deposit is made into a restricted cash account for amounts (a) payable for Class A Interests that may be issued in the future upon the allowance of unresolved claims, (b) in respect of Class A Interests on account of recently allowed claims, (c) for holders of Class A Interests who failed to cash distribution checks mailed in respect of prior distributions, (d)  for distributions that were withheld due to pending avoidance actions and (e) for holders of Class A Interests for which the Trust is waiting for further beneficiary information.

31
Accrued Liquidation Costs

The estimated costs associated with implementing and completing the Company’s plan of liquidation are recorded as accrued liquidation costs. The Company has also recorded the estimated development costs to be incurred to prepare the assets for sale as well as the estimated holding, maintenance and repair costs to be incurred until the projected sale date and the estimated general and administrative costs to be incurred until the completion of the liquidation of the Company and estimated reserves for contingent liabilities.

Changes in Carrying Value

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the estimated net realizable values, liquidation costs and the estimated date of the completion of the liquidation of the Company and records any significant changes. The Company will also evaluate an asset when it is under contract for sale and the buyer’s contingencies have been removed. During the period that this occurs, the carrying value of the asset and the estimated closing and other costs will be adjusted, if necessary. If the Company has a change in its plan for the disposition of an asset, the carrying value will be adjusted to reflect this change in the period that the change is approved. The change in value may also include a change to the accrued liquidation costs related to the asset.

All changes in the estimated liquidation value of the Company’s assets, real estate held for sale, or other assets and liabilities are reflected as a change to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.

26


PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Sections 7.6 and 7.18 of the Plan provide that distributions that have not been cashed within 180 calendar days of their issuance shall be null and void and the holder of the associated Liquidation Trust Interests “shall be deemed to have forfeited its rights to any reserved and future Distributions under the Plan,” with such amounts to become “Available Cash” of the Trust for all purposes.  On February 1, 2022, the Trust sent letters to the holders of the Class A Interests who have failed to cash distribution checks in respect of prior distributions, which checks were issued more than 180 days prior to the date of the letter. The letter informed the holders that, unless such holders contact the Trust no later than February 28, 2022,  in accordance with the Plan, the holders’ reserved and future distributions will be deemed forfeited.  The Trust provided this final notice simply as a one-time courtesy and reserves its rights to strictly enforce the Plan’s forfeiture provisions, and any other provision of the Plan, against any person (including any recipient of the final notice) at any time in the future, without further notice.

The following tables summarize the distributions declared, distributions paid and the activity in the restricted cash account for the periods from February 15, 2019 (inception) through March 31, 2022 and from February 15, 2019 through May 13, 2022:

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As claims are resolved, additional Class A Interests may be issued or cancelled (see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 27, 2021, “Part 1, Item 1. Business, D. Plan Provisions Regarding the Company, 2. Treatment under the Plan of holders of claims against and equity interests in the Debtors and 3. Assets and liabilities of the Company”). Therefore, the total amount of a distribution declared may change between the date declared and the date paid. The Liquidation Trustee will continue to assess the adequacy of funds held and expects to make additional cash distributions on account of Class A Interests, but does not currently know the timing or amount of any such distribution(s).

Management believes that, since its inception, the Wind-Down Entity has made substantial progress toward completion of its liquidation activities and is nearing the end of the liquidation of its real estate portfolio. Holders of Liquidation Trust Interests are advised that future distributions from the Trust will be limited. Once the Company’s remaining real property assets have been liquidated and the net proceeds resulting therefrom, net of reserves, have been distributed, further distribution(s) will be materially reliant on future recoveries from litigation, which are uncertain and the amount and timing of which are difficult to determine.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2022, the Company has contractual commitments related to construction contracts totaling approximately $5.20 million. The Company expects to complete the construction of the single-family homes during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. The Company has an office lease that expires in July 2022. The Company has two six-month options to extend the lease. The Company expects that it will continue to lease office space until the liquidation process is completed.

The measurement of real estate assets held for sale is based on the terms of current contracts (if any), estimates and other indications of sales value, net of estimated selling costs. To determine the value of real estate assets held for sale, the Company considered the three traditional approaches to value (cost, income and sales comparison) commonly used by the real estate appraisal community. The applicability and relevancy of each valuation approach as applied may differ by asset. In most cases, the sales comparison approach was accorded the greatest weight. This approach compares a property to other properties with similar characteristics that have recently sold. To validate management’s estimate, the Company also considers opinions from qualified real estate professionals and local real estate brokers and, in some cases, obtained third party appraisals.

Accrued Liquidation Costs

The estimated costs associated with implementing and completing the Company’s plan of liquidation are recorded as accrued liquidation costs. The Company has also recorded the estimated development costs to be incurred to prepare the assets for sale as well as the estimated holding costs to be incurred until the projected sale date and the estimated general and administrative costs to be incurred until the completion of the liquidation of the Company.

Changes in Carrying Value

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the estimated net realizable values, liquidation costs and the estimated date of the completion of the liquidation of the Company and records any significant changes. The Company will also evaluate an asset when it is under contract for sale and the buyer’s contingencies have been removed. During the period that this occurs, the carrying value of the asset and the estimated closing and other costs will be adjusted, if necessary. If the Company has a change in its plan for the disposition of an asset, the carrying value will be adjusted to reflect this change in the period that the change is approved. The change in value may also include a change to the accrued liquidation costs related to the asset.

All changes in the estimated liquidation value of the Company’s assets, real estate held for sale, or other assets and liabilities are reflected as a change to the Company’s net assets in liquidation.

Causes of Action

The Company does not record any amount from the future settlement of unresolved Causes of Action or recoveries from Fair Fund or Forfeited Assets (including those that may be settled, but subject to court or other regulatory agency approval) in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since they cannot be reasonably estimated. The Company recognizes recoveries from the settlement of unresolved Causes of Action when an agreement has been executed and collectability is reasonably assured.

Below is a descriptiondescription of pending litigation. As the Company is the plaintiff in these legal proceedings and does not have the ability to estimate the ultimate recovery amount until they are settled, and in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy, no recoveries have been recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for these legal proceedings, other than for settlements for which the Trust has entered into a signed settlement agreement and collectability is reasonably assured.

The case was designated as a complex matter on December 18, 2019 and was assigned to the Honorable Amy Hogue.

On March 20, 2020, two sets of defendants – Sidley Austin LLP and Neal Sullivan; and Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP and S. Lee Terry, Jr. – filed special motions to strike the portions of the complaint directed at them under a California statute (Civil Procedure Code section 425.16) that permits defendants to bring early challenges to causes of action against them that allegedly arise from protected litigation activity if those causes of action lack minimal merit.  The defendants that filed these special motions to strike asserted that the claims against them arise from communicative conduct in the course of quasi-judicial proceedings, such as regulatory inquiries, and that the Trust cannot establish a likelihood of prevailing on its claims against them.  The Trust opposed these motions, and the matters were heard on July 28, 2020, and taken under submission on that date.  On August 14, 2020, the Court entered orders: (i) granting the motion to strike filed by Sidley Austin LLP and Neal Sullivan, and (ii) granting in part and denying in part the motion to strike filed by Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP and S. Lee Terry, Jr.  In September 2020, the Trust filed notices of appeal of the foregoing orders, and Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP and S. Lee Terry, Jr. subsequently filed a cross-appeal.  On January 27, 2021, the Court entered an order granting, in part, a motion for attorneys’ fees filed by Sidley Austin LLP and Neal Sullivan, pursuant to which the movants were awarded $282,500.00 in fees and $5,557.87 in costs. On March 1, 2021, the Trustee filed a notice of appeal of the order granting fees and costs.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings (Continued)
On June 16, 2020, the Trust reached a confidential settlement with Balcomb & Green, P.C. and Lawrence R. Green.  On July 6, 2020, these defendants filed a motion seeking the Court’s determination that the settlement was made in good faith under a California statute (Civil Procedure Code section 877.6) that permits settling defendants to seek a good faith settlement finding in order to bar any other defendant from seeking contribution or indemnity.  The motion was unopposed, and the Court entered an order granting it on August 12, 2020.

On January 21, 2021, the Trust reached a confidential settlement with Robinson & Cole LLP and Shant Chalian.  As part of that settlement, the appeal of the jurisdictional ruling as to those parties has been dismissed.

The other appeals remain pending. On June 14, 2021, the Trustee filed a combined opening brief for all of the appeals other than his appeal of the order granting fees and costs to Sidley Austin LLP. Between September 22-29, 2021, the respondents filed their opening briefs.   On March 17, 2022, the Trustee filed a combined reply brief for all of the appeals other than his appeal of the order granting fees and costs to Sidley Austin LLP.  On June 30, 2022, Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP filed its reply brief in support of its cross-appeal of the order denying a portion of its special motion to strike.  The matter is currently fully briefed and awaiting the Court scheduling oral argument.

The appeal of the award granting fees and costs to Sidley Austin LLP remains pending.  The Trustee is due to file an opening brief in November 2022.

On October 28, 2020, the Trust filed a federal lawsuit against four defendants that prevailed on the motions to quash service of summons in the California state court action (Rome McGuigan, P.C.; Brian Courtney; Bailey Cavalieri LLC; and Thomas Geyer), as well as a fifth defendant (Ivan Acevedo), and certain “Doe” defendants.”  The case is styled Goldberg v. Rome McGuigan, P.C., et al., Case No. 2:20-cv-09958-JFW-SK (C.D. Cal.).  The complaint contains counts for (i) violations of section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5; (i) aiding and abetting fraud; (iii) aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty; (iv) negligent misrepresentation; (v) professional negligence; (vi) aiding and abetting conversion; (vii) actual fraudulent transfer; and (viii) constructive fraudulent transfer.  The conduct challenged in the complaint includes certain of the same conduct challenged in the California state court action, and a footnote in the complaint explains:  “Plaintiff filed an action in Los Angeles Superior Court against [four of these defendants] raising some of the claims asserted in this action.  Those defendants filed a motion to quash service, alleging that the court did not have personal jurisdiction.  The Court granted those motions, and Plaintiff appealed.  Plaintiff brings this action to preserve his rights and ensure that his claims against [the defendants] are adjudicated on the merits.  Should the state court appeal be successful, resulting in two cases being simultaneously litigated on the merits in two forums, [plaintiff] will consider dismissing this action and litigating the case in state court.”  On January 4, 2021, the four defendants from the California state court action filed motions to dismiss this federal lawsuit, and on March 4, 2021, the court entered an order granting those motions in part by dismissing the first count (arising under the federal securities laws), without ruling on the remaining counts (arising under state law) in light of potential personal jurisdiction issues.  On March 29, 2021, the same four defendants again moved to dismiss the remaining counts for lack of personal jurisdiction. On April 23, 2021 the federal court entered an order granting those motions, but has not yet entered a final judgment.

Comerica Bank litigation. On August 6, 2021, the Trust agreed to the terms of a settlement of two actions against Comerica Bank.  The terms of the settlement, reached following negotiations with Comerica Bank and the plaintiffs in a putative class action against Comerica Bank in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (the “District Court”), are the subject of a Settlement Agreement among the plaintiffs, Comerica Bank, and the Trust (“Comerica Settlement Agreement”).  Comerica Bank is the institution at which the Debtors maintained all of their bank accounts, and these actions arise out of the Debtors’ former banking relationships with Comerica Bank.  The Comerica Settlement Agreement is referenced hereto as Exhibit 10.16.

PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings (Continued)
The Comerica Settlement Agreement resolves two actions.  One of the actions, captioned In re Woodbridge Investments Litigation, Case No. 2:18-cv-00103-DMG-MRW (C.D. Cal.), was a consolidated putative class action in District Court brought on behalf of former noteholders and unitholders of the Debtors (the “California Class Action”).  The California Class Action was comprised of five separate lawsuits filed between January 4, 2018 and April 26, 2018 and, as consolidated, asserted claims for aiding and abetting fraud, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, and violations of California’s unfair competition law.  The Trust believes that it is the largest member of the putative class in the California Class Action, as holder of approximately 60.9% of all claims against Comerica based on the claims contributed to the Trust by former investors of the Debtors.

The other action resolved by the settlement, captioned Michael I. Goldberg as trustee for the Woodbridge Liquidation Trust v. Comerica Bank, Adv. Pro. No. 20-ap-50452-BLS (Bankr. D. Del.), is an adversary proceeding  in the Bankruptcy Court, in which the Trust asserted claims against Comerica Bank for fraudulent transfers under the California Civil Code the (the “Delaware Adversary Action”). The Delaware Adversary Action also incorporated the claims asserted against Comerica Bank in the California Class Action to the extent that such claims may ultimately be determined to belong to the Debtors’ estates rather than to individual former noteholders and unitholders.

Under the terms of the Comerica Settlement Agreement, the California Class Action has been settled as a class action on the basis of a class defined to consist of (i) the Trust, as assignee of the claims of the holders of Net Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) in Class 3 (Standard Note Claims, as defined in the Plan) and Class 5 (Unit Claims, as defined in the Plan) of the Plan who are Contributing Claimants (as defined in the Plan) and (ii) the holders of Net Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) in Class 3 (Standard Note Claims, as defined in the Plan) and Class 5 (Unit Claims, as defined in the Plan) of the Plan who are not Contributing Claimants (as defined in the Plan).  For purposes of distributions under the Settlement Agreement, the holders of Net Claims who are not Contributing Claimants are deemed to be the holders of such Net Claims as of February 15, 2019.

Under the Comerica Settlement Agreement, Comerica Bank agreed to pay (including through its insurers) an aggregate of $54.5 million, consisting of $54.2 million to settle the California Class Action (the “Class Payment”) and $300,000 to settle the Delaware Adversary Action (the “FT Payment”).  The Class Payment was intended to provide recoveries to members of the plaintiff class and to fund, in amounts to be determined by the District Court, the legal fees of plaintiffs’ counsel in the California Class Action, not to exceed 25% of the California Class Action settlement payment, the costs of administering the settlement, and certain incentive award for the class representatives.  Under the Comerica Settlement Agreement, Comerica Bank (and certain related parties) has been released from all claims advanced, or that could have been advanced, related to the facts alleged in the California Class Action or the Delaware Adversary Action.

The settlement amount was required to be paid within ten business days of the Settlement Effective Date (as defined in the Comerica Settlement Agreement), and was paid, in its entirety, between January 19, 2022 and January 27, 2022.

On December 17, 2021, the court entered an order granting final approval to the settlement of the California Class Action, and the “Effective Date” of the settlement occurred on or about January 20, 2022.  Since that time, the settlement payment has been paid by Comerica Bank (or its insurers) and the Trust has commenced administration of that payment.  The Trust has recorded approximately $24.81 million from the settlement, comprised of (i) the Trust’s share (approximately 60.9%) of the Net Class Consideration (without reduction for costs of administration or incentive awards) and (ii) the $300,000 FT Payment (without reduction for any reason).

Avoidance actions. The Trust is currently prosecuting numerous legal actions to recover preferential payments, fraudulent transfers, and other funds subject to recovery by the bankruptcy estate.  These actions were filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”Bankruptcy Court), are pending before the Honorable J. Kate Stickles, and generally fall into the following categories:


o
Preferential transfers. Certain of the actions include claims arising under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code and seek to avoid or recover payments made by the Debtors during the 90 days prior to the December 4, 2017 bankruptcy filing, including payments to miscellaneous vendors and former Noteholders and Unitholders.

o
Fraudulent transfers (Shapiro personal expenses). Certain of the actions include claims arising under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code and seek to avoid and recover payments made by the Debtors during the course of the Ponzi scheme (from July 2012 through the December 4, 2017 bankruptcy filing) for the personal expenses of Robert and Jeri Shapiro, including those identified in a forensic report prepared in connection with an SEC enforcement action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida.


o
Fraudulent transfers and fraud (against former agents).

These actions were filed by the Trust in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware between November 15, 2019 and December 4, 2019. Actions of this type are also being pursued by the SEC, and it is the Trust’s understanding that any recoveries obtained by the SEC will be transmitted to the Trust pursuant to a Fair Fund established by the SEC.

The Trust has filed over 400 legal actions of this nature, many of which have been resolved, resulting in recoveries by or judgments in favor of the Trust. Since inception and as of April 30,October 31, 2022, the Trust has obtained judgments of approximately $23.60$44.73 million, including default judgments of approximately $15.43$36.21 million and stipulated judgementjudgments of approximately $8.17 million and$8.52 million. It is unknown at this time how much, if any, will ultimately be collected on the judgments.  Additionally, the Trust has entered into settlements in approximately 210227 legal actions and in an additional approximately 245 potential avoidance claims for which litigation was not filed, resulting in aggregate settlements of approximately $17.17$18.17 million of cash payments made or due to the Trust and approximately $9.98$11.21 million in reductions of claims against the Trust.

Other legal proceedings.  In addition, other legal proceedings were prosecuted by the Trust and United States governmental authorities, which actions resulted in recoveries in favor of the Trust. Such actions include:

Robert Shapiro, Jeri Shapiro, 3X a Charm, LLC, Carbondale Basalt Owners, LLC, Davana Sherman Oaks Owners, LLC, In Trend Staging, LLC, Midland Loop Enterprises, LLC, Schwartz Media Buying Company, LLC and Stover Real Estate Partners LLC. In this action, the Trust asserts claims under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable state law for avoidance of preferential and fraudulent transfers together with claims for fraud, aiding and abetting fraud, the unlicensed sale of securities, breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. The Trust seeks to recover damages and assets held in the names of Robert Shapiro, Jeri Shapiro and their family members and entities owned or controlled by them, which assets the Trust contends are beneficially owned by the Debtors or for which the Debtors are entitled to recover based on the Shapiros’ defalcations, including over $20 million in avoidable transfers. On February 4, 2022, the Trust entered into a Settlement Agreement with Ms. Jeri Shapiro resolving the Trust’s adversary proceeding against Ms. Shapiro.  In connection with the Settlement Agreement, Ms. Shapiro responded to interrogatories from the Trust and submitted a declaration under penalty of perjury detailing her lack of assets.  Upon execution of the Settlement Agreement, Ms. Shapiro executed and delivered a Stipulated Judgment for approximately $20.6 million that will be held by the Trust in escrow for three years that can be entered without notice if the Trust learns Ms. Shapiro’s representations in her declaration were false or materially inaccurate.  Additionally, Ms. Shapiro authorized the Trust to expunge the filed claims of certain co-defendants she was listed as an officer and turned over payments to the Trust that were received by certain co-defendants in the adversary proceeding.  A stipulation of dismissal (as to Ms. Shapiro only) was entered on April 1, 2022.

The issuance of Liquidation Trust Interests has occurred in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. Section 1145(a)(1) exempts the offer and sale of securities under a plan of reorganization from registration under the Securities Act and state securities laws and regulation if (i) the securities are offered and sold under a plan of reorganization and are securities of the debtor, of an affiliate of the debtor participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a successor to the debtor under the plan; (ii) the recipients of the securities hold a pre-petition or administrative claim against the debtor or an interest in the debtor; and (iii) the securities are issued entirely in exchange for the recipient’s claim against or interest in the debtor, or principally in such exchange and partly for cash or property. The Trust believes that the Liquidation Trust Interests are securities of a “successor” to the Debtors within the meaning of Section 1145(a)(1), and such securities were issued under the Plan entirely in exchange for allowed claims in Class 3, Class 4, and Class 5 under the Plan.
