Zetta Jet Receives Court Approval for Chapter 11 Trustee to be Appointed and Permission to Pay Critical Vendors

“We believe that having an independent and impartial trustee in place to oversee the business as well as the company’s Chapter 11 restructuring protects the interests of all of our stakeholders, and is the best course to ensure the smooth operation of our business throughout the proceedings,” said Zetta Jet President and CEO Michael Maher.

The Company also announced that to facilitate normal business operations, it has received Court permission to pay a select group of critical vendors in the ordinary course of business for pre-petition debts owed.

“The Court’s approval of our critical vendor motion is another positive step in our efforts to restructure our debt while continuing to provide safe, reliable and luxurious service to our customers. We also appreciate the ongoing partnership of our customers and suppliers, and thank our employees for their continued dedication,” Maher concluded.

The Company also said a recent emergency injunction ordered by a Singapore Court to stop the Chapter 11 proceedings was null and void given that a Singapore Court has no jurisdiction in U.S. federal bankruptcy court.
