I am the Chief Financial Officer of TC Global, Inc. dba Tullys Coffee (Debtor),

debtor-in-possession herein. I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein and I am competent to testify to the same. 2. The Debtor recently closed nine of its retail coffee shop locations. Prior to that, the

Debtor had closed ten additional locations. The Debtor is now required to pay $1,100.00 per month for offsite storage to house the equipment and inventory previously at the closed locations for which the Debtor no longer has a need.

3.

The Debtor estimates that the maximum liquidation value of the equipment and

inventory is approximately $140,000. In the past, the Debtor has worked with equipment resellers to sell individual pieces of equipment. Additionally, the Debtor has received inquiries from other coffee shops or individuals that are interested in purchasing individual pieces of equipment and portions of inventory. 4. The Debtor believes that it will obtain the highest value for its equipment and

inventory by selling it itself in multiple small sales to a variety of interested purchasers as opposed to having an auction. 5. The Debtor does not anticipate that a sale to any one purchaser would yield greater

than $25,000 and that the vast majority of sales would be much smaller. 6. The Debtors 4th & Union downtown Seattle location featured a baby grand piano.

That location was closed as of October 14, 2012. 7. The Debtor estimates that the piano is worth approximately $3,500 based upon a

consignment quote by Northwest Pianos, LLC (NWP), a business that regularly sells and warrantees used pianos. 8. In order to avoid the expense of moving the piano and to facilitate the sale of the item

the Debtor no longer needs, the Debtor entered into a Piano Consignment Agreement (Agreement) with NWP on October 12, 2012. A true copy of the Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 9. It is the Debtors business judgment that the Agreement provides the means to recover

the most value for the piano and requests that the Court authorize the Debtor to enter into and perform under the Agreement nunc pro tunc. /// ///
