Apr 17, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- CCTYQ | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Circuit City Stores, a specialty retailer of consumer electronics, has retained Streambank to assist in the marketing and sale of certain of the company's intellectual property assets such as firedog and TradingCircuit.com and related businesses, and the Circuit City trademark and the circuitcity.com website.

Recently, Circuit City, in the Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, obtained approval of procedures for the sale of certain IP assets to a 'stalking horse' bidder pursuant to the terms of a recently signed agreement between Circuit City and the 'stalking horse' bidder.

The approved procedures for sale include an auction, which is scheduled to be held on May 11, 2009 at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, 4 Times Square, New York, New York. A bid deadline of May 6, 2009 has been set with a scheduled sale approval hearing on May 13, 2009.

In this assignment, Streambank will work alongside Circuit City's financial advisor and investment banker, Rothschild, in the auction and sale of the assets as contemplated under the stalking horse agreement. Streambank's retention will be subject to formal bankruptcy court approval, Streambank said.

James Marcum, vice chairman and acting CEO and president of Circuit City, said: "We are pleased to have engaged Streambank to assist us in maximizing value to creditors from Circuit City's intellectual property. Streambank's expertise in all aspect of intellectual property combined with their experience in restructuring and bankruptcy will be a benefit to the Circuit City estate and creditors."
