Verbrugge and its creditors have agreed upon a voluntary reorganization plan. In this plan, each share of the noncallable preferred will be exchanged for 1 share of $2.80 preferred with a par value of $35 plus one 7% subordinated income debenture with a par value of $75. The callable preferred issue will be retired with cash generated by reducing current assets.

Enter your answers in millions. For example, an answer of $1 million should be entered as 1, not 1,000,000. Round your answers to the nearest whole number.
