SAN FRANCISCO, October 9, 2001 /PRNewswire/ -- Netcentives Inc. (OTC NCNT) announced today that it has filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code together with its subsidiaries, Post Communications, Inc., and MaxMiles. Netcentives intends to maintain operation of all existing loyalty programs and services, including its ClickRewards(R), Delta SkyMiles Shopping, and United MileagePlus Shopping rewards networks, the Email Marketing Group and other related services while it seeks to sell business assets in an auction expected to occur in November. "The filing is an important step in protecting the value of our loyalty and email business operations and the underlying intellectual property, patents and source code as we seek to sell the company's business operations," stated Eric Larsen, chief executive officer of Netcentives. "The asset auction is a continuation of a restructuring plan announced earlier this year in which we are now divesting assets and reviewing payables under the guidance of the court to prioritize liabilities and preserve cash flow for creditors and, potentially, shareholders." The Company also announced that it had signed a letter of intent to sell its Email Marketing Group, formerly Post Communications, to Plum Acquisition Corp., a company headed by Post founder Hans Peter Brondmo. The proposed transaction is subject to competitive bids and bankruptcy court approval.
