Letter to Members from CRO
"Dear Ultimate Escapes Members,
I am pleased to inform you that the Company has reached agreement with the Laurence Group, based in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, to sell a number of the company’s properties and to offer members an opportunity to transition their Ultimate Escapes membership experience to the Demeure travel club, an affiliate of the Laurence Group, on preferred terms. The transaction remains subject to court approval and satisfaction of closing conditions.
I am also pleased to inform you that the Laurence Group has additionally agreed to lease a significant number of the Company’s former properties from Capital Source, which combined with the homes they are buying, will allow for members to continue to use the majority of the homes they know and love.
Our agreement allows for Demeure to invite our members to transition your membership to the Demeure club, and, unlike the previous offers you may have received from third parties, this offer is not only authorized by the Company, but has our complete support. The Company will be working hand in hand with Demeure in transitioning all interested members to their Club.
I believe this is a very good result for the members, and that we have accomplished our goal of providing a home for members that will enable them to begin traveling again very soon.
A press release is being issued contemporaneously by Demeure, and we will post it on the Member Only Website as soon as it is available.
As always, we thank you again for your support. If you have questions, you may submit them via email to bankruptcy@ultimateescapes.com.
Thank you,
Sheon Karol CRO"
