Klein, at 501 "I" Street, 6th Floor, Courtroom 35, Sacramento, California, to consider the motion by Mid Valley Nut Company Inc., Debtor in Possession in the above-referenced bankruptcy case, to sell substantially all of its equipment, buildings, and a 50% membership interest in MW, LLC (which is an operating food processor doing business as Performance Co-Packing) to World Food Products, Inc., a California corporation ("WFP") for the gross price of $7,000,000, subject to an opportunity for overbid. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that the underlying real property is owned by a related third party, B.A.M. Limited Partnership, which has agreed to sell the real property to buyers related to WFP, Martin Van Duyn and Cheryl L. Van Duyn as Trustees of the Van Duyn Family Trust u/a/d December 20, 2006 (for convenience also referred to as "WFP"), for $1,000,000, subject to an opportunity for overbid. WFP's offer to purchase the Debtor's equipment, buildings, and interest in MW, LLC and to purchase the real property is referred to herein as the "Stalking Horse Bid." The equipment consists generally of equipment used in processing walnuts and commercial vehicles. The buildings are commercial buildings with approximately 112,000 square feet and are located upon the real property. The real property is approximately 30.93 acres of land at 2065 Geer Road in Hughson, California. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that qualified bidders will have an opportunity to bid to purchase the aforesaid assets at the time, date, and place of the hearing. Potential overbidders must appear in person and may not appear by videoconference or telephone. Potential overbidders must notify the Debtor and WFP at least three (3) calendar days prior to the hearing of their intent to bid and whether they intend to bid on all or less than all of the assets. Notice must be RECEIVED by said date by counsel for the Debtor and WFP, Robert G. Harris and Daniel L. Egan, respectively, by email to rob@bindermalter.com and degan@wilkefleury.com (with copies to reno@bindermalter.com and rlee@leemodelaw.com) or by mail to Robert G. Harris, Binder Malter Harris & Rome-Banks LLP, 2775 Park Avenue, Santa Clara, CA 95050 and Daniel L. Egan, Wilke Fleury LLP, 621 Capitol Mall, Suite 900, Sacramento, CA 95814. Potential overbidders must qualify before or at the hearing (but before bidding) by providing written evidence of available funds to the satisfaction of the Debtor. If any bidder present at the hearing that provided notice wishes to bid on less than all assets, then there will be a round of bidding on the equipment, the Debtor's interest in MW, LLC, the buildings, and the real property individually. Bidding will proceed in minimum increments of $50,000. Such bids may be approved only if the total of the highest and best bids for each asset is $8,200,000 or greater. Otherwise, overbids must be made for all of the assets together. The first overbid shall be $8,200,000, and bidding shall proceed thereafter in minimum increments of $50,000. Overbids must be made on the same terms as the Stalking Horse Bid, which is expected to be free of all contingencies by the time of the hearing, or on superior terms. The Court may alter or decline to employ the foregoing bidding procedures at the hearing. Interested parties may arrange to inspect the assets by contacting the undersigned at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the hearing. The motion requests authority to sell the assets free and clear of liens, except for the real property, which will be sold subject to encumbrances and a lease to WFP. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that this notice is not comprehensive and does not include all terms of the Stalking Horse Bid or the motion, which must be reviewed by parties interested in bidding. Copies of the motion, including the Stalking Horse Bid, are available upon written request to the undersigned or via the Court's PACER system. For further particulars, reference is made thereto.
