“Top Brokers Recognized, Achieve Double-Digit Returns in Rollercoaster Market”

BOSTON, July 28 /CEO News Info/ — First Coverage Inc., which provides the fastest-growing alpha capture platform worldwide and is the leader in North American equity trading content, today released its 2010 Mid-Year Top Performer Rankings, which recognize the best equity market institutional sales people and sell-side firms in the world.

Morgan Keegan & Company, one of the nation’s largest regional investment firms offering full-service investment banking, securities brokerage, wealth and asset management, ranked No. 1, outperforming more than 350 firms on the First Coverage platform.

“We are delighted to recognize Blake Kukar for his exemplary, positive returns in a market when the S&P 500 was down 7.7 percent during the same period,” said Roland Beaulieu, CEO and President of First Coverage. “Despite an economic environment with myriad obstacles – high unemployment, modest income growth, tight credit and global financial crisis – Blake demonstrates that a solid stock picker can navigate even the most challenging market to make money for his clients.

The technology allows portfolio managers to easily find and focus on the institutional sales people and information most likely to add value to their investment process.

MARINA DEL REY, Calif., July 28 /CEO News Info/ — Dr. Richard Merkin, President and CEO of Heritage Provider Network sponsored the third in an ongoing Community Healthcare dialogue series discussing the impact of HealthCare Reform Legislation on the Community and the economic implications for small businesses. The event was co-sponsored by The North Valley Chamber of Commerce, The Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce and Regal Medical Group, part of the HPN family. The packed house of attendees listened to influential panelists including Dr. Adam Solomon, Assistant Medical Director, Regal Medical Group, member Heritage Provider Network Family, Mr. Fred Bauermeister, Executive Director of the Free Clinic of Simi Valley and Kerry Carmody the COO, and interim CEO, of the California Region for Providence Health and Services.

The Honorable Assemblyman Cameron Smyth, 38th District, who is a member of the California State Assembly Committee on Health, moderated the panel. The spirited discussion centered on the benefits and impact of Healthcare Reform on the community, including how to keep healthcare costs down while integrating the thousands of newly insured to our distressed hospitals and free clinics. Numerous questions from the audience centered around the implementation of reform, what it means for the individual in Southern California, potential changes in Medicare and access to care.

“We at Regal Medical Group concentrate on quality of care, access to care and affordability of care. By being accountable for the full spectrum of patient needs, we help facilitate the provision of evidence based medical care that is not only efficient, but also is shown to have the best outcomes. This integrates very well into the new legislative directives,” said Dr. Adam Solomon, Assistant Medical Director, Regal Medical Group.

“Of the 100 hospitals in and around Los Angeles County, many are really struggling financially,” pointed out Kerry Carmody, COO and interim CEO of the California Region for Providence Health and Services. “Balancing care and costs and improving quality, is something we can only do together.”

With Los Angeles ground zero in the country for the uninsured, 1 out of every 4 under the age of 65, hospital emergency rooms and free clinics are feeling the pinch.

“Until these regulations for insurance coverage for all are implemented, we will try to extend our care to cover as many patients as we can,” said Fred Bauermeister, Executive Director of the Free Clinic of Simi Valley. “The good news is, this legislation implements new technologies for delivery systems like electronic medical records that will make our job much easier, then we can take more patients.”

“Our Community Healthcare Dialogue series provides an important opportunity to hear from the community on a critically important issue. No other medical group similar to us is sponsoring these types of events,” said Dr. Richard Merkin, President and CEO of Heritage Provider Network. “We are happy to fill the need and help the community understand the changes that our coming in our healthcare delivery system, and continue to look for better ways to provide quality healthcare with feedback from our community and our business leaders.”

Signature Group Holdings, Inc. Names New Management Team and Board of Directors Following Successful Reorganization of Former Financial Services Giant Fremont General Corporation

Special situation lender and investor in middle market companies installs leadership team of veteran turnaround professionals, commercial finance specialists and private equity investors; Craig Noell named CEO; Former Foothill Capital founder John Nickoll named Chairman

SHERMAN OAKS, Calif. and NEW YORK, July 20 /CEO News Info/ — Special situation lender and investor Signature Group Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: SGGH), successor to recently reorganized Fremont General Corporation, has elected a new Board of Directors and appointed an executive team following its successful emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings last month.

Signature will emphasize a business model that focuses on credit-oriented special situation lending and investments in middle-market companies nationally. Prior to bankruptcy, Fremont General Corporation was a $7 billion financial institution with interests in banking, insurance and commercial finance; its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fremont Investment & Loan, was one of the country’s top five originators of subprime residential loans. When the subprime market collapsed in 2007, Fremont General Corporation came under pressure by regulators and elected to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in June 2008 in order to implement its restructuring program.

Signature emerged from Chapter 11 in June 2010 under a plan of reorganization led by Signature Group Holdings, LLC. One of the key features of the plan of organization was an estimated $769 million (unaudited) of federal net operating loss carry-forwards expected to be available to offset future taxable income.

Craig Noell, 47, has been named president and CEO of Signature Group Holdings, Inc. Mr. Noell has served as Managing Director and CEO of Signature Group Holdings, LLC since 2004. Signature operates as an investor and investment manager employing credit driven strategies, including distressed debt investments and special situation loan originations.

“Using the platform of the former Fremont General, we are very excited about writing a new chapter for Signature and confident that our new management and board slate can elevate the company into a leader in middle-market lending and investment, a sector that continues to be starved for capital,” Mr. Noell said. “With our team in place, our shareholders can be confident that we have the expertise and talent to take Signature to the next level.”

John Nickoll, founder of Foothill Capital Corp., formerly the country’s largest independent commercial finance company prior to merging with Wells Fargo, has been named Chairman of the Board of Directors of Signature.

“Middle market lending remains one of the biggest causalities of the economic downturn, with many providers exiting the market and conventional lenders pulling back significantly,” Mr. Nickoll noted. “There is a major opportunity for Signature to make an impact in offering vital credit and investment capital for mid-market companies, for operating purposes, mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, and a host of special situations.”

Robert A. Peiser, a veteran turnaround executive who has served as CEO of several national companies – including Omniflight Helicopters, Inc. and Imperial Sugar Co. – has been named Vice Chairman and will also chair Signature’s Audit Committee as management implements a plan to bring the company back into SEC compliance. Mr. Peiser, who also served two separate tours as CFO of Trans World Airlines, brings strong corporate governance experience to his new role with Signature’s board.

“The first few months following a reorganization typically represent the most challenging period for a turnaround,” Mr. Peiser said. “Having assembled a collegial group of experienced veterans, who bring substantial experience in special situation credit and commercial finance, will greatly enhance the viability of our business model.”

The rest of the board members include Mr. Noell, along with Kenneth Grossman, Michael Blitzer, John Koral, Richard A. Rubin, Norman Matthews and Robert Schwab. The board has already established various key corporate governance committees, including audit, compensation, legal, executive and governance and nominating committees.

Rounding out the Signature executive team are:

Kenneth Grossman, 54, a veteran turnaround professional and distressed investor has been appointed co-Executive Vice President. Mr. Grossman, a former corporate lawyer, also serves as managing director of Signature Capital Advisers, LLC, which has entered into an interim investment management agreement with the newly reorganized company. Mr. Grossman has served in leadership roles for several investment firms, including Ramius, LLC, Del Mar Asset Management, L.P., and Alpine Associates, LP. Mr. Grossman was responsible for evaluating new investments and managing existing investments at each firm.

Kyle Ross, 33, has been named co-Executive Vice President along with Mr. Grossman. Mr. Ross has also served as a managing director of Signature Capital Advisers, LLC, evaluating new investments and managing existing investments. SCA has employed credit-driven strategies, including distressed debt investments and special situation loan originations.

The terms of the new leadership team were outlined in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission: http://biz.yahoo.com/e/100715/sggh.pk8-k.html.

“We are in a great position here following the Fremont General reorganization and installation of a first-rate leadership team to turn Signature Group Holdings, Inc. into a serious player in commercial finance,” Mr. Grossman said. “So many middle-market companies are eager for funding – for expansion, for transactions, to pay off existing debt. We are looking forward to stepping in with capital and expertise to help advance business recovery in this critical segment of the economy.”
