Questex Media Bankruptcy – Debt Picture and Largest Unsecured Creditors

Questex Media Group (“Questex Media”) and its 8 affiliates who also filed bankruptcy on October 5, 2009 (the “Debtors”) have requested authority to file a consolidated list of the 30 largest unsecured creditors (the “Top Unsecured Creditor List”) in lieu of a separate list for each of the Debtors.  The total claims of the 30 top unsecured creditors is substantial, exceeding $66 million.  However, the amount of vendor debt on the list appears only to be approximately $2 million.  Although vendor debt was not a factor in the decision to file this bankruptcy, the suppliers and other vendors with pre-petition claims will suffer significant “collateral” damage.
