Workout liquidation play with 20%-30% upside and cash distributions to be paid out to unitholders this

year. The units currently trade at $0.1945 for a market cap of $68.7mm. I believe we will see
distributions of $0.23 - $0.25 per unit over the next year as the liquidation completes. The units are
surprisingly liquid with a few large funds establishing meaningful positions in the name.
Overview
Arctic Glacier Income Fund (OTC: AGUNF, CNQ: AG.UN) is an income trust that is currently liquidating
under creditor protection. It used to have a packaged ice manufacturing and distribution business in
which it sold. The estate is sitting on US$118.1mm cash with proven claims of about $34mm (40% of
which are in Canadian dollars aka the Northern Peso). All claims are mostly settled and the monitor is
putting together a plan of arrangement to distribute the proceeds. An overview of the current situation
is provided in the 14

report of the monitor:

Valuation

AGUNF has $118mm in cash and $1.6mm in tax receivables. I estimate $32mm - $38mm will get
distributed to claimants leaving $82mm - $88mm to unitholders, or $0.23 - $0.25 per unit.

Unsettled Claims (p.7 of 14
th
report of monitor)
Indirect Purchaser Claim - This was initially filed for $463.58mm on behalf of a class of US retail
purchasers of packaged ice. The applicants have entered into a settlement agreement for a maximum of
$4.15mm. Next steps include the issuance of an approval order on a final basis this month and the
claims deadline for the class of June 12 2014. Due to the nature of the claim process (the need to
submit receipts for the number of packaged ice bags you previously bought), I expect total claims to be
less than the maximum $4.15mm.
McNulty Claim McNulty was a former employee who filed a claim $13.61mm for "blackballing him
from the industry". This claim was disallowed on Sept 12 2013. McNulty filed a dispute notice on Sept
19 2013. The monitor submitted the claim to the claims officer for adjudication on Nov 22 2013. This
claim is currently unresolved. During the Feb 5 2014 court hearing, it was revealed that discussions are
productive and this claim could get settled soon. I expect this claim to ultimately be disallowed or
settled for a nominal amount.
Peggy Johnson Claim - This $12.259mm claim is made up of $34,000 for royalties on the trade name
"Arctic Glacier", $10.5mm for alleged termination of the royalty agreement, $500k for alleged
extinguishment of the license, plus interest. All of these claims except the $34k were disallowed on Apr
12 2013. On May 2 2013 a dispute notice was filed. On Aug 19 2013 it went to the claims officer for
adjudication. Unfortunately the hearing is not until fall 2014 and therefore this is the gating factor on
the final distribution to unitholders. I expect this claim to ultimately be disallowed or settled for a
nominal amount.
Other There are $718k of disallowed claims with the dispute period not expired. $500k of this amount
recently expired. There is also a $2.194mm claim for California tax in which AGUNF is indemnified and
will not absorb any costs.
Timing
During the Feb 5 2014 court hearing, the monitor revealed that it is putting together a plan of
arrangement in order to distribute cash in the estate to creditors and unitholders as soon as possible.
The monitor estimates it will have this plan of arrangement ready by late March / early April 2014, with
a vote 21-30 days after filing of the plan. I assume an interim distribution of $0.15 could be paid out in
the summer with the remainder by year end.
Conclusion
This is a low-risk workout with upside of 20%-30% as cash disbursements are made over the next year.
Assuming an interim distribution in summer and final distribution by year end gives an estimated IRR of
>35%.
