April/May 2003
Wilbur Ross
Annual Dinner Keynote Speaker

The 19th Annual Dinner and Awards Ceremony will be held Thursday, June 5th in San Francisco at the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

There will be a reception planned prior to the dinner starting at 6:30 p.m. sponsored by Foothill Capital Corporation. Dinner will begin at 7:30 p.m.

We are pleased to have, as Key-note speaker of Thursday evening’s event, Wilbur Ross. Mr. Ross is probably the best known turnaround financier in the U.S. because he has restructured over $200 billion of defaulted companies around the world. Fortune Magazine has nicknamed him the “King of Bankruptcy.” After 26 years as Executive Director of Rothschild, Inc., he bought the firm’s distressed investment activities on April 1, 2000 and immediately opened offices in New York City, Tokyo and Seoul. Since then, the firm has created private investment partnerships and hedge funds totaling in excess of $1.6 billion. Mr. Ross holds an A.B. from Yale and a M.B.A. with Distinction from Harvard. He is a member of the New York Society of Security Analysts Committee on Alternative Investments. He organized International Steel Group in April, 2002 to acquire the assets of the third largest U.S. integrated steel producer, LTV, and is now its board chairman.

Don’t miss this great opportunity to hear one of today’s most outstanding financiers.
