New measurements of the reaction {sup 12}C(e,e'p) at high missing energies and momenta, at Q{sup 2} = 2(GeV/c){sup 2}, and at x{sub B}>1 are described. Preliminary cross sections for a large range of missing energies and momenta are presented and display a relation between the missing energies and momenta which takes into account the recoil and excitation of the residual nucleus. Distorted spectral functions were extracted. They display badly-broken factorization and raise doubt about knowledge of the elementary off-shell electron-nucleon cross sections for x{sub B}>1.
