O'Sullivan Industries to shell out $16 million to outside firms

O'Sullivan Industries will pay approximately $16 million in fees and expenses to third parties in connection with their bankruptcy proceedings, according to the quarterly report filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The bills that have been mentioned in earlier Turner Report posts are far from the only ones, company officials indicated in the filing. For Lazard Freres, the company which provided financial advice, "O'Sullivan has paid, or will pay, Lazard a $1.8 million fee and a $375,000 financing fee.
Rothschild, which is advising the secured creditors, will receive a $750,000 financing fee, and the company which is advising the unsecured creditors will pick up a $450,000 financing fee, according to the documents.
"These fees are in addition to regular fees O'Sullivan has been accruing," the filing said.

Sounds like to me that they are no better off then they were before the big bankruptsy. They were shut down a week in May and told that would take care of any problem. Then low and behold they are shut down again next week. And are only working 4 days a week the reat of the month. They are really doing good I see. It appears they are doing worse then the O'sullivans them selves ever did. With all the warehouses they have jam packed full again, it don't seem they are selling much does it?
