On Aug. 28, 1942, lite SEC issued a notice and order for hearing instituting "death sentence" proceedings against the Niagara Hudson System under Section 11 (b) (2) and other sections of' the Public Utility Holding Company Act ot 1.935. Thereafter, the boards of directors of Niagara Hudson Power Corp. and of Buffalo, Niagara & Eastern Power Corp., after receiving the advice of their respective counsel and audi¬ tors, suspended the payment of dividends on all classes of stock of such companies. Since that time extensive hearings have been held in these proceedings, and the officers and directors of such companies have been engaged in the development of a plan for the reorganization of the Niagara Hudson System which would meet the requirements of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, provide for the pay¬ ment of the accruals of preferred dividends and place the principal operating utility properties of the system in one operating company. The boards of directors of Niagara Hudson Power Corp. and of Buffalo, Niagara & Eastern Power Corp. believe that the following plan will accomplish the foregoing and that its prompt consummation is ^definitely in the interests of all classes of stockholders. v The plan divides itself into four parts: Part I, the consolidation of the principal operating utility companies of the system and of Buffalo, Niagara & Eastern Power Corp. into one operating company; part II. the acquisition by such 'operating company of certain of the assets and Stocks of subsidiaries of Niagara Hudson Power Corp: part III, the consolidation of Frontier Corp. and Northern Development Corp., both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Niagara Hudson Power Corp., into North¬ ern Development Corp. and the acquisition by it of all the assets of Niagara Hudson Power Corp. other than those to be distributed pur¬ suant to part IV; and part IV, the dissolution of Niagara Hudson Power Corp. and the distribution of its-remaining assets to its stock¬ accrued 129,431 as owed to it $996,757 Corp., Power the of the preferred a introductory statement to the plan states: Traffic 221,671 the filing the simplified one, June the revenues basis as stock and gas from to $15,378,150 $12,848,537 $72,292,266 $56,695,129 Maint. of way & struct. 1,730,836 1,317,674 7,537,134 5,589,316 Maintenance of equip.2,070,338 1,667,904 9,586,430 8,072,902 operating the common $3,512,831 2,516,074 $2,891,180 dividends of shares of $6 Corp., ' Ry. 1,057,895 shs par) unpaid to All held by Niagara, Hudson Power Corp.
