With international headquarters in Chicago, TMA ’s nearly 8,000 members in 43 regional chapters comprise a profes-sional community of turnaround practitioners, attorneys, accountants, investors, lenders, venture capitalists, appraisers, liquidators, executive recruiters and consultants, as well as academic, government and judicial employees.

Why you should attendThe 2008 Spring Conference exposes you to a timely education program highlighting the forces driving new economic realities and opportunities for corporate renewal professionals. Conference highlights include: Outstanding keynote speakers, including Andy Card, White House Chief

of Staff (2000-2006); Dr. David E. Altig, senior vice president and director of research, Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta; and Pat Williams, Senior Vice President of the Orlando Magic Insightful general sessions on topics including residential homebuilding,

mortgage lending, offshore hedge funds and Chapter 15s, private equity sponsors and health care providers, as well as potential new matters such as structured investment vehicles, CLOs, CDOs, sovereign investment funds and municipal bankruptcies Networking events such as golf and tennis tournaments and numerous

meals, receptions and coffee breaks, bringing you together with colleagues from around the world

On behalf of the 2008 TMA Spring Conference Committee, it is my pleasure to invite you to attend The Reckoning—Corporate Renewal Opportunities in Times of Global Uncertainty being held at the luxurious Ritz Carlton Grande Lakes in Orlando, Florida.

The spreading concern about the integrity of global debt markets has demonstrated the fragility of modern finance and the widely dispersed risk inherent in newly devised structured financial products. As investment losses and insolvency risks infect in-ternational financial networks, experts are not debating the inevitability of bankruptcies from the fallout, but rather the extent of them. Whether this contagion will result in a recession is still to be seen; however, even if an official recession does not occur in the United States in 2008, the global economy will likely experience pockets of turmoil. The retreat to a new level of risk, though necessary, was never going to be orderly or free of casualties—or opportunities for corporate renewal professionals.

Consistent with TMA’s mission to provide timely and relevant education to its members, The Reckoning will feature keynote speakers and expert panelists from North America and around the world discussing the forces driving the new economic reality—residential homebuilding, mortgage lending, offshore hedge funds and Chapter 15s, private equity sponsors and health care providers, as well as potential new matters such as structured investment vehicles, CLOs, CDOs, sovereign investment funds and municipal bankruptcies.

The Reckoning’s prominent keynote speakers include Andrew Card, former White House Chief of Staff and U.S. Secretary of Transportation, who will open the conference on Friday morning, and Pat Williams, senior vice president of the NBA’s Orlando Magic and one of America’s top motivational and inspirational speakers, who is Friday’s featured dinner speaker. Friday’s luncheon keynote speaker, Dr. David Altig, senior vice president and director of research at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, will offer unique insight into the state of the economy.

As always, the Spring Conference will be a great venue for networking, deal making and relationship building, including Thursday’s golf tournament, tennis event and luncheon event for the Professional Women’s Networking Group, as well as the many breakfasts, lunches, dinners, coffee breaks and diversity-themed networking receptions being held throughout the 2008 Spring Conference.

The Reckoning is a reality because skilled professionals contributed hundreds of pro-bono hours to this effort. Please refer to the listing of the members of the Conference Committee in this brochure, and thank them for an extraordinary job as you encounter them at the conference. The 2008 Spring Conference would also not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors who are listed on page 14. Sponsorships are still available, and I encourage you to consider sponsoring The Reckoning as an opportunity to showcase your firm.

The Ritz Carlton Grande Lakes, a fantastic family venue, features a full-service spa, lazy river rafting and outstanding recreational activities, and a short distance from the property lies Disney World, Downtown Disney, Epcot Center, MGM Studios, Universal Studios, Sea World, museums, gardens, shopping and more.

Friday, March 28, 9:15 a.m.–10:�0 a.m.“Recent Trends in Distressed M&A” Moderator: Michael A. Fixler, CM&D Capital Advisors LLC

Panel: Dean Anderson, American Capital Strategies; Stephen A. Boyko, Proskauer Rose LLP; Christopher Calabrese, LBC Credit Partners; William J. Drmacich, CIT Business Capital; Adam R. Gottlieb, Industrial Opportunity Partners

The general M&A market set record deal volumes over the last couple of years while distressed M&A muddled through a strong economic and credit environment. With a much weaker economic backdrop and tighter credit markets, distressed M&A activity is expected to accelerate. What should distressed M&A participants expect?

• Are deals still getting done in the middle market?

• Are those deals getting done with higher equity contributions?

• How are people dealing with non-fully underwritten deals?

• Difficulties of changing seller expectations

• MAC outs/break up fees

• Lower risk tolerance for lenders; “just get me out” syndrome

• Re-emergence of strict covenants

Given the anticipated increase in distressed M&A activity, this panel will focus on the current state of the M&A and credit markets for distressed transactions.

Concurrent Session AFriday, March 28 11:00 a.m.–12:15 p.m.A1: “ When Did

Healthcare Become Hot?”

Moderator: Suzanne Koenig, SAK Management Services, LLC

Panel: Roberta A. DeAngelis, Executive Office for U. S. Trustees; Carol E. Jendrzey, Cox Smith Matthews Incorporated; Keith J. Shapiro, Greenberg Traurig LLP

Healthcare has been heating up the restructuring industry ahead of all the other areas of business. The challenges of low reimbursement, slow pay and debtors’ ability to manage their cash flow while caring for patients and providing quality care has made for a very tenuous situation. The patient care ombudsman continues to jump through hurdles while explaining to bankruptcy professionals his/her place in the bankruptcy playing field and the relevance of enhancing the debtors’ assets, who are the very patients or residents of the debtor.

Educational SessionsA2: “ International Trends: Global Financial

Markets”Moderator: Brad Coulter, CTP, O’Keefe & Associates Consulting LLC

Panel: Beth Ann Bovino, Standard & Poor’s; Rick S. Chance, KPMG Corporate Finance LLC; James H. Zukin, Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin

Economists project a slowdown in global growth in 2008. Given the financially intertwined nature of the global economy today, what are the implications of market corrections and losses in the United States and elsewhere on global credit? Are we heading for a global credit crunch and has unprecedented growth in emerging markets in recent years created bubble effects in some emerging economies that are due for a correction? This panel examines a number of key issues affecting international financial markets, including:

• Strength, stability and vulnerabilities within the international financial system that could foreshadow the next international financial crisis or a global credit crunch

• The effect of U.S. credit woes on international markets, its potential contagion effect, and the impact on global credit and liquidity

• Current hot spots and watch spots for non-performing loans and distressed investing

• Impact on global markets of the emergence of sovereign wealth funds

• Implications of lingering problems in Japan and a potential slowdown in China on world markets

Concurrent Session BFriday, March 28, 2:15 p.m.–�:�0 p.m.B1: “ Subprime Mortgages—The Fallout

Continues: Observations and Case Studies”

Moderator: David W. Wirt, Winston & Strawn LLP

Panel: John Anderson, RBS Greenwich Capital; Timothy R. Coleman, The Blackstone Group; Harry J. Devens, The Bear Companies; Peter S. Partee Sr., Hunton & Williams LLP

As the subprime crisis continues to dominate business and political headlines, industry experts debate the future for the subprime industry and the implications on the lending sector and broader economy as a whole. This panel of experts will discuss topics that include:

• A comparison and contrast between the “consensual” workout of the distressed subprime lender versus a bankruptcy proceeding

• Legal and practical implications respecting valuation issues and collateral realization: debates within the capital structure

• Looking forward: opportunities and potential dangers in the subprime industry for 2008 and predictions on the fallout

Educational SessionsFriday, March 28, 2:15 p.m.–3:30 p.m.B2: “ Bankruptcy Beyond Borders: From Hedge

Funds to Herbal Supplements—Why Chapter 15 Matters to You”

Moderator: Linc A. Rogers, Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP

Panel: Jay A. Carfagnini, Goodmans LLP; Alesia Ranney- Marinelli, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP; Lawrence E. Young, AlixPartners

The principal vehicle through which foreign insolvency proceedings will enter the United States is Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Proceedings commenced under this Chapter will dictate how asset values are maximized, how proceeds of realization are distributed and what role foreign courts will play in determining the rights and interests of U.S. stakeholders. Recent cases in connection with the recognition of foreign proceedings involving the SphinX and Bear Stearns hedge funds demonstrate that Chapter 15 will be at the forefront of some of the most complex, intriguing and ground breaking cases. The panel of leading experts will focus on the implications of the recent cases dealing with failed hedge funds, the MuscleTech Chapter 15 proceedings dealing with mass tort litigation arising from the sale of herbal supplements and the real challenges and opportunities for turnaround professionals in dealing with cross-border insolvency cases.

Friday, March 28, 4:00 p.m.–5:30 p.m.Advanced Educational Session: “ An Entrepreneur’s Ride Through the American Bicycle Industry”

Chris Hornung, Founder and Former CEO, Pacific Cycle$95/person

(conference registration is required to attend this session)

Pacific Cycle, Inc. is a major bicycle manufacturer founded in 1983 and headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, whose brands include DYNO, GT, InSTEP, Mongoose, Murray, Pacific Outdoors, Powerlite, Roadmaster and Schwinn. Virtually all of these brands were unprofitable and many languished in bankruptcy prior to their acquisition by Pacific Cycle. The first portion of the session describes the process by which these distressed assets were acquired. Second, this session describes the significant changes in marketing, distribution channel management, manufacturing, brand management, operations and market segmentation strategies that Pacific Cycle employed to turnaround these brands. For example, Pacific Cycle is the only bicycle manufacturer to sell different bikes in different channels. Its bicycles are sold by Independent Bicycle Dealers (IBD) and mass merchandisers such as Target, Wal-Mart and The Sports Authority. Collectively, these operational changes built considerable value in what was considered a dead industry. Finally, the session concludes with a discussion of the 2004 acquisition of Pacific Cycle by Dorel Industries.

Saturday, March 29, 9:00 a.m.–10:15 a.m.“ Global Business Roundtable: A Global Survival Plan”

Moderator: Gordon W. Johnson, EM Advisors LLC

Panel: Russell P. Brown, LehmanBrown; Brian Cassady, Black Management Advisors

The global economy slowed slightly in 2007 and is expected to slow further in 2008, due to weaker growth in rich countries and a deepening global credit crunch. With prospects for a recession growing in the U.S. and a weakening dollar, coupled with rising commodity prices and increased market volatility, could the global economy be at a tipping point? This panel of business leaders and investment professionals surveys the current state of investment progress globally and discusses key factors, trends and risks for doing business in a more volatile global economy. The panel will address:

• Comparative perspective on doing business globally and key considerations and risks for investing in emerging markets

• The effect of slowing growth in the U.S. and Europe on emerging market exports and growth

• Convergence and divergence on the globalization track; business survival strategies in a global economy

• The deepening global credit crunch and risk management strategies to cope with more volatile financial markets

• Rise of the BRIC and other emerging market trends, hot spots, not spots and watch spots for distressed investing in emerging markets

Saturday, March 29, 10:45 a.m.–12:00 p.m.“ Distressed Real Estate: How Do You Catch a Falling Knife?”

Moderator: Noel R. Boeke, Holland & Knight LLP

Panel: Ron Glass, GlassRatner Advisory & Capital Group, LLC; Navin N. Nagrani, Hilco Real Estate LLC; Paul S. Singerman, Berger Singerman P.A.; Natalie B. Wilensky, CIT Commercial Finance

It is no secret that the residential real estate market is faced with challenges, and there have been many workouts and bankruptcies associated with the homebuilder/developer segment of the industry. Join an expert group of panelists as they discuss issues related to this troubled industry, as well as the broader affects on commercial real estate. Some highlights of the discussion include:

• What are the economic factors that led to the downturn and subsequent failure of many homebuilders and developers?

• How are these residential restructurings being handled? Reorganizations or liquidations?

• An overview of some of the main issues and pitfalls associated with a homebuilder restructuring

• What’s going on in the real estate capital markets?

• Has the subprime meltdown had an impact on the usage and demand for CMBS and CDO products?
