DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Settlement 

Agreement 

Notice is hereby given that a proposed 

Settlement Agreement in American 

International Specialty Lines Insurance 

Company, Inc. v. NWI–I, Inc., et al., 

Civil Action No. 05–6386, was lodged 

on January 9, 2008 with the United 

States District Court for the Northern 

District of Illinois. 

American International Specialty 

Lines Insurance Company, Inc. (AISLIC) 

filed this declaratory judgment action 

against NWI–I, Inc., LePetomane II, Inc. 

(as Trustee of the Fruit of the Loom 

Successor Liquidation Trust), and 

LePetomane III, Inc. (as Trustee of the 

Fruit of the Loom Custodial Trust), 

which are successor entities to bankrupt 

Fruit of the Loom, Inc. (FTL), seeking to 

avoid coverage under a Pollution Legal 

Liability insurance policy issued to FTL 

in 1998 (the Policy). Under a 2002 

settlement agreement in the FTL 

bankruptcy, the Fruit of the Loom 

Successor Liquidation and Custodial 

Trusts were created and those entities 

agreed to pursue FTL environmental 

insurance claims under the Policy. 

Under the 2002 bankruptcy settlement, 

the Custodial Trust owns and, using 

funds recovered by the Successor 

Liquidation Trust, implements site 

investigation, clean-up, and restoration 

activities at seven former FTL properties 

which are the subject of the action: St. 

Louis Plant Site (St. Louis, Michigan), 

Breckenridge Site (St. Louis/ 

Breckenridge, Michigan), Residue Hill 

Site (Chattanooga, Tennessee), 

Hardeman County Landfill Site (Toone, 

Tennessee), Hollywood Dump Site 

(Memphis, Tennessee), Marshall Plant 

Site (Marshall, Illinois), and Ventron/ 

Velsicol/Berry’s Creek Site (New Jersey). 

The United States and the States of 

Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, and 

Tennessee are beneficiaries of the 

Trusts. The United States intervened in 

AISLIC’s action to protect its interests. 

Pursuant to the Settlement 

Agreement, in return for a buyback of 

the Policy, AISLIC will make an initial 

$30 million payment and ten annual 

payments of $1.250 million, with 

interest running from May 15, 2007, to 

the Successor Liquidation Trust. The 

nature of the response and/or 

restoration activities to be performed at 

each site is not an issue addressed in 

this settlement and will, instead, be 

determined in the usual course in a 

manner not inconsistent with the 

relevant statutes. In addition, the 

Successor Liquidation Trust will 

separately pay the three nongovernmental intervenors, who allege 

that they are insured under the Policy, 

$287,000 to resolve their claims against 

AISLIC for coverage under the Policy. 

The Department of Justice will 

receive, for a period of thirty (30) days 

from the date of this publication, 

comments relating to the proposed 

consent decree. Comments should be 

addressed to the Assistant Attorney 

General, Environment and Natural 

Resources Division, and either e-mailed

Insurance Company, Inc. v. NWI–I, Inc., 

et al., DOJ Ref. #90–11–2–0709/1.
