The Company intends to make timely payment for goods and services provided on or after the filing date in the normal course of business and in accordance with terms of existing supplier agreements.

Among the motions granted, SGI received approval to: * Continue to pay employee wages and provide healthcare and other similar benefits; * Pay suppliers for goods and services provided after the filing; and * Maintain uninterrupted delivery of products and services to its customers. "We are pleased with the approval of our 'first-day motions' by the Bankruptcy Court," said Dennis McKenna, chairman and chief executive officer.
