The Monitor sought an order authorizing distributions from the sale of Geothermal Assets.

KTNI disputed the Monitor's recommended disallowance of its claim to a portion of the proceeds based on a transfer provision in the Berm Lease.

The court found that the plain language of the lease reserved the transfer value to KTNI and that the provision was not invalidated by the pari passu or anti-deprivation rules.

The Monitor was directed to distribute $2,049,000 to KTNI, but no funds were to be distributed to Doreen Saskin until her claim in the bankruptcy of KTNI's parent company was accepted.

In the context of CCAA proceedings for the Urbancorp entities, the Monitor brought a motion for an order approving and directing distributions from the sale of geothermal assets.

The court approved two unopposed distributions recommended by the Monitor in its Forty-Fifth Report, specifically regarding VII - Curve and UNKI.

The balance of the requested relief was adjourned to a date to be set.
