Astrata Group operates in the United States, western Europe, and Asia. The company was founded in 1986 and is headquartered in Costa Mesa, California. | | History: INCORPORATED in Nevada Mar. 13, 1996 as Sportsman's Wholesale Company. Name changed to Cetalon Corp. Mar. 13, 2001; and to Astrata Group Inc. Aug. 3, 2004.
January 15, 2003, the company (then known as Cetalon Corp.) filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California, Los Angeles Division. On May 27, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the company's Plan of Reorganization (the Plan), followed by confirmation of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court on May 28, 2004. The Plan was effected on June 8, 2004, and the Cetalon Corp. Liquidating Trust was created.
Pursuant to the Plan, all equity interests of Cetalon Corp. in existence prior to the Plan's effective date were cancelled. When and if all unpaid creditor claims assigned to the Trust were satisfied in full with interest, the company's pre-petition equity holders would then receive a pro-rata distribution of the remaining Trust assets based on their pre-petition percentage ownership of the company. Under the terms of the Plan, in August 2004, the company combined with Cadogan Investments Ltd., the London-based owner of Astrata South Africa (Pty) Limited, and with Optron Technologies, Inc., a Nevada company with operations in Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei and England. Pursuant to the Plan, the company issued approximately 6,275,000 Common shares in exchange for all shares of Cadogan Investments Ltd., and 1,800,000 Common shares to acquire all shares of Optron Technologies. The company also issued an additional 156,000 Common shares to the Trust for distribution pursuant to the terms of the Plan, an additional 609,000 Common shares in satisfaction of approximately $520,000 of administrative claims, and an additional 1,560,000 Common shares to certain administrative note holders in satisfaction of about $53,000 of administrative-claim notes payable and accrued interest.
On Dec. 16, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court closed the Cetalon Chapter 11 case. | | | | Subsidiaries: |
