01:12239656.9
"Declaration"), attached hereto as Exhibit A. In further support of the Application, the Debtor
respectfully states as follows:
JURISDICTION
1. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157
and 1334 and the Amended Standing Order of Reference from the United States District Court
for the District of Delaware, dated as of February 29, 2012. This is a core proceeding pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(2), and the Court may enter a final order consistent with Article III of the
United States Constitution. Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1408 and
1409. The statutory and legal predicates for the relief requested herein are sections 327(a) and
328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016 and Local Rules 2014-1
and 2016-2.
GENERAL BACKGROUND
2. On June 26, 2012 (the "Petition Date"), the Debtor filed a voluntary
petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtor has continued in
possession of its properties and has continued to operate and maintain its business as a debtor in
possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.
3. On July 6, 2012, the Office of the United States Trustee for the District of
Delaware (the "U.S. Trustee") appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors (the
"Committee") [Docket No. 86]. No request has been made for the appointment of a trustee or
examiner in this case.
4. A description of the Debtor's business, the reasons for commencing this
chapter 11 case, and the relief sought from the Court to allow for a smooth transition into chapter
11 are set forth in the Declaration of DanielL. Fitchett, Jr. in support of Chapter 11 Petitions
01:12239656.9
4
and First Day Relief[Docket No. 2] (the "First Day Declaration"), filed on the Petition Date and
incorporated by reference herein.2
RELIEF REQUESTED
5. The Debtor has determined, in its business judgment, that it has a need for
a qualified real estate professional to assess the highest and best use of real property that the
Debtor owns in fee (collectively, the "Owned Property") and to assist the Debtor with respect to
the matter set forth in ,-r 10 hereof.
3
The Debtor has also determined that, in its sound business
judgment, the retention and employment of GA Keen Realty, who has substantial experience in
handling real estate and consulting matters in the chapter 11 context, will provide substantial
benefit to the estate because GA Keen Realty is well suited to assist the Debtor and handle the
capital infusion need for its business. Accordingly, the Debtor seeks to employ and retain GA
Keen Realty on the terms and conditions set forth in the retention agreement dated June 13, 2012
(the "Retention Agreement"), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C.
BASIS FOR THE RELIEF REQUESTED
6. Bankruptcy Code section 327(a) provides, in relevant part, as follows:
[T]he trustee, with the court's approval, may employ one or more
attorneys, accountants, appraisers, auctioneers, or other
professional persons, that do not hold or represent an interest
adverse to the estate, and that are disinterested persons, to
represent or assist the trustee in carrying out the trustee's duties
under this title.
11 U.S.C. 327(a).
7. Bankruptcy Code section 328(a) provides, in relevant part, as follows:
2
Capitalized terms not otherwise defmed herein shall have the meaning attributed to them in the First Day
Declaration.
3
A comprehensive list of the Owned Property is attached as Exhibit A to the Retention Agreement.
01:12239656.9
5
The trustee ... with the court's approval, may employ or authorize
the employment of a professional person under section 327 ... of
this title ... on any reasonable terms and conditions of
employment, including on a retainer, on an hourly basis, on a fixed
or percentage fee basis, or on a contingent fee basis.
Notwithstanding such terms and conditions, the court may allow
compensation different from the compensation provided under
such terms and conditions after the conclusion of such
employment, if such terms and conditions prove to have been
improvident in light of developments not capable of being
anticipated at the time of the fixing of such terms and conditions.
11 U.S.C. 328(a).
8. Bankruptcy Rule 2014 provides, in relevant part, as follows:
An order approving the employment of. . . auctioneers ...
pursuant to 327 ... of the Code shall be made only on
application of the trustee or committee.
Fed R. Bankr. P. 2014
9. GA Keen Realty is qualified to serve as the Debtor's real estate advisor in
this chapter 11 case. GA Keen Realty, its principals, and/or its predecessor entities has served as
real estate advisor and consultant for over 30 years and has a significant knowledge ofthe
Debtor's real estate. GA Keen Realty has been working with the Debtor since May 2012 and, as
noted above, signed the Retention Agreement with the Debtor on June 13, 2012. GA Keen
Realty has an understanding of the Debtor's real estate and the Debtor's business and has access
to sources of capital for the Debtor's business. Generally, GA Keen Realty has experience in
virtually all aspects of the finance of real property and in advising companies with respect
thereto. Further, GA Keen Realty, its professionals, and/or predecessor entities frequently serve
as real estate advisors to debtors or other constituents in other large bankruptcy cases in
Delaware and other jurisdictions, including: Friendly Ice Cream Corporation, Service
Merchandise Company, The Penn Traffic Company, Brown Schools, Bruener Home
Furnishings, Cable & Wireless, and Montgomery Ward, to name a few.
01:12239656.9
6
10. The Debtor intends to employ GA Keen Realty on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Retention Agreement to provide various services related to potential
transactions, including, but not limited to: (1) the raising of debt and/or equity capital and/or the
closing of a joint-venture in order to (a) fund a plan of reorganization, (b) refinance the Owned
Property, (c) recapitalize the Debtor or an entity owned or controlled by the Debtor, (d) buy all
or a portion of the secured debt currently encumbering the Owned Property, and/or (e) provide
DIP financing and/or, if warranted and appropriate under the circumstances, (2) the sale or
transfer of title of one or more Owned Properties.
4
More specifically, GA Keen Realty's
services may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Assisting the Debtor in developing and organizing due diligence materials and
in preparing an offering memorandum;
Developing, subject to the Debtor's review and approval, a financing plan and
implementing each facet of the financing plan;
Assisting the Debtor in identifying, contacting, and screening potential parties
to a transaction;
Assisting the Debtor in arranging for potential parties to a transaction to
conduct due diligence in connection with a potential transaction and, as
appropriate, assisting the Debtor to prepare a due diligence data room and to
coordinate the due diligence investigations of potential parties to a transaction;
Communicating regularly with prospects and maintaining records of such
communications;
4 All descriptions of the terms of the Retention Agreement are provided in the Application for convenience only
and are qualified by the terms of the Retention Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the
Retention Agreement and the Application, the Retention Agreement shall control. Parties are strongly encouraged
to read the Retention Agreement.
01:12239656.9
7
Communicating regularly with the Debtor and its professional advisors in
connection with the status of its efforts;
Advising the Debtor on strategies for negotiating with creditors and
participating in meetings or negotiations with creditors in connection with a
transaction;
Assisting the Debtor in evaluating, structuring, negotiating, and implementing
the terms and conditions of a proposed transaction;
Subject to a separate agreement, providing testimony in court, on behalf of the
Debtor, as necessary and appropriate; and
Working with the attorneys responsible for the implementation of the
proposed transaction, reviewing documents, negotiating and assisting in
resolving problems that may arise.
11. Pursuant to the terms of the Retention Agreement, GA Keen Realty will
receive compensation in the form of an incentive-based transaction fee (the "Transaction Fee").
The Transaction Fee is summarized below:
01:12239656.9
(i) Transaction Fee: When the Debtor closes a transaction, subject to certain
exceptions described in the Retention Agreement, GA Keen Realty shall have
earned compensation per transaction equal to:
(a) With respect to equity and preferred equity, six percent (6%) of
Gross Proceeds (as defined in the Retention Agreement);
(b) With respect to junior or mezzanine debt, four percent ( 4%) of
Gross Proceeds;
(c) With respect to senior debt, two percent (2%) of Gross Proceeds;
and/or
(d) With respect to the sale of one or more properties, five percent
( 5%) of Gross Proceeds.
(ii) Minimum Transaction Fee: At conclusion of the Term (as defined in the
8
Retention Agreement), if GA Keen Realty has not earned a minimum of
$350,000 (the "Minimum Transaction Fee"), then the Debtor shall pay GA
Keen Realty the difference between the Minimum Transaction Fee and the
amount of Transaction Fees earned by GA Keen Realty.
The Retention Agreement also provides that the Debtor will reimburse GA Keen Realty for its
reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses.
12. The incentive-based fee is appropriate under section 328(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Debtor submits that the rate ofGA Keen Realty's fees is appropriate and
is in an amount typical of GA Keen Realty's relationships with its other clients, in and out of
chapter 11 proceedings.
13. Additionally, the Debtor requests a waiver of the application and
information requirements of Local Rule 2016-2(d). GA Keen Realty seeks compensation on an
incentive-fee basis. These fees are customary for the services provided by GA Keen Realty to
chapter 11 debtors in the ordinary course of GA Keen Realty's business and in the commercial
real estate industry. As such, submission of detailed time entry is unnecessary and would be
unduly burdensome to GA Keen Realty. Accordingly, the Debtor requests that the requirements
of Local Rule 2016-2(d) be waived pursuant to Local Rule 2016-2(g).
14. Given the transactional nature ofGA Keen Realty's services and fee
structure, GA Keen Realty has advised the Debtor that it seeks relief from complying with fee
application requirements and shall be compensated in accordance with the procedures set forth in
the Application and Retention Agreement and such procedures as may be fixed by order of this
Court. Given the transactional nature ofGA Keen Realty's engagement and subject to Court
approval, GA Keen Realty will not be billing the Debtor by the hour and will not be keeping
01:12239656.9
9
records of time spent for professional services rendered in this chapter 11 case. GA Keen Realty
will, however, be keeping reasonably detailed descriptions of the services that were rendered
pursuant to its engagement. GA Keen Realty has already been successful in arranging a DIP
financing commitment for the Debtor.
15. To the best of the Debtor's knowledge, information and belief, other than
as set forth herein or in the Declaration, GA Keen Realty has not represented and has no
relationship with: (i) the Debtor; (ii) the Debtor's twenty largest unsecured creditors; (iii) the
Debtor's member or manager; (iv) the Debtor's prepetition secured lender; (v) the Debtor's
proposed post-petition secured lender; (vi) the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors; (vii)
the respective attorneys and accountants of any of the foregoing; or (viii) the United States
Trustee or any person employed in the Office of the United States Trustee for the District of
Delaware, in any matter relating to this case.
16. Additionally, other than as set forth herein or in the Declaration, GA Keen
Realty believes it: (a) neither holds nor represents any interest adverse to the Debtor or the
Debtor's estate on matters for which it is to be retained; (b) has no prior connection with the
Debtor, its creditors or any other party in interest; and (c) is a "disinterested" person as such term
is defined in section 101(14) ofthe Bankruptcy Code.
17. Pursuant to the terms of the Retention Agreement, the Debtor has agreed
to indemnify and hold harmless GA Keen Realty, Great American Group, LLC, their respective
affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, and
controlling persons (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"). Notwithstanding the terms of the
Retention Agreement, the Debtor's indemnification obligations shall be modified as follows:
01:12239656.9
(a) The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification,
contribution, or reimbursement for services other than the services
10
(b)
(c)
18.
provided under the Retention Agreement, unless such services and the
indemnification, contribution, or reimbursement therefor are provided for
in the Retention Agreement and approved by the Court;
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Retention Agreement, the
Debtor shall have no obligation to indemnify any person, or provide
contribution or reimbursement to an Indemnified Party, for any claim or
expense that is either: (i) judicially determined (the determination having
become final and no longer subject to appeal) to have arisen from an
Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) for a
contractual dispute in which the Debtor alleges the breach of an
Indemnified Party's contractual obligations unless the Court determines
that indemnification, contribution, or reimbursement would be permissible
pursuant to In reUnited Artists Theatre Co., 315 F.3d 217 (3d Cir. 2003);
or (iii) settled prior to a judicial determination as to the exclusions set
forth in clauses (i) and (ii), but determined by this Court, after notice and a
hearing, to be a claim or expense for which an Indemnified Party should
not receive indemnity, contribution, or reimbursement under the terms of
the Retention Agreement as modified by this Order; and
If, before the earlier of (i) the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11
plan in this case (that order having become a final order no longer subject
to appeal), and (ii) the entry of an order closing this chapter 11 case, an
Indemnified Party believes that it is entitled to the payment of any
amounts by the Debtor on account of the Debtor's indemnification,
contribution, or reimbursement obligations under the Retention
Agreement, including without limitation the advancement of defense
costs, the Indemnified Party must file an application before this Court, and
the Debtor may not pay any such amounts to the Indemnified Party before
the entry of an order by this Court approving the payment. This
subparagraph (c) is intended only to specify the period of time under
which the Court shall have jurisdiction over any request for payment by an
Indemnified Party for indemnification, contribution, or reimbursement,
and not a provision limiting the duration of the Debtor's obligation to
indemnify the Indemnified Parties.
The Debtor believes that the retention of GA Keen Realty to act as its real
estate advisor to raise debt and/or equity capital for the Debtor is in the best interest of the
Debtor, its estate, and its creditors. Accordingly, the Debtor submits that this Court should
authorize the retention and employment of GA Keen Realty, nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date,
and should grant the waiver of Local Rule 2016-2(d) requested herein.

4. From its review of the list of creditors herein, GAG and GA Keen have has
detennined that the following relationships should be disclosed:

affiliate ofthe GAG, has performed appraisal work (or may perform
appraisal work) on matters unrelated to this chapter 11 case forGE Capital

c. Great American has been or may have been retained in other matters
unrelated to these chapter 11 cases in which certain professionals listed as

GA Keen may have represented in the past, may currently represent, and likely in the future
will represent parties in interest in connection with matters unrelated to the Debtor and this
Chapter 11 Case. As part of its practice, GA Keen also appears in cases, proceedings and
transactions involving many different attorneys and accountants, some of which may
represent claimants and parties-in-interest in this Chapter 11 Case. GA Keen does not

above, or for any other reason.
6. Despite the efforts described above to identify and disclose GA Keen's
connections with parties in interest in this Chapter 11 Case, GA Keen is unable to state with
certainty that every client relationship or other connection has been disclosed. In this
regard, if GA Keen discovers additional material infonnation that it determines requires
