ARTICLE III
 
CLASSIFICATION AND TREATMENT OF CLAIMS, INTERESTS, AND WARRANTS
 
A.        Introduction
 
The Plan places all Claims, Interests, and Warrants except unclassified Claims provided for in Article II, in the Classes listed below. A Claim, Interest, or Warrant is placed in a particular Class only to the extent that it falls within the description of that Class, and is classified in other Classes to the extent that any portion thereof falls within the description of other Classes.
 
B.        Summary and Treatment of Classes
 
(i)         Class 1 : Bank Claims.
 
1.         Impairment and Voting. Class 1 is Impaired by the Plan. Each holder of an Allowed Bank Claim is entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. In the absence of a vote to accept or reject the Plan by any holder of an Allowed Bank Claim, such holder of an Allowed Bank Claim shall be deemed to reject the Plan. The Bank Claims are Allowed Claims in the amounts set forth below. Each holder of an Allowed Bank Claim holds a pro rata amount of such aggregate Allowed Bank Claims as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
 
 
Each holder of an Allowed Bank Claim is also entitled to vote to have Class 1 make the Section 1111(b) Election. Votes by holders of Allowed Bank Claims in favor of Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election are valid, enforceable, and applicable solely with respect to this Plan. Such votes by holders of Allowed Bank Claims in favor of Class I making the Section 1111(b) Election are null and void with respect to any other plan that might be proposed, absent the consent of the applicable holder of the Allowed Bank Claims voting in favor of Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election. In the event that there is any material change to the treatment of Bank Claims under this Plan, holders of the Allowed Bank Claims that have voted in favor of having Class 1 make the Section 1111(b) Election may revoke such votes in favor of
 

 
8

 

 
Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no revocation of a vote in favor of Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election shall change any vote to accept or reject the Plan.
 
2.         Distribution. On the Effective Date, each holder of an Allowed Bank Claim shall receive the treatment provided below, depending on whether Class 1 makes the Section 1111(b) Election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, there shall be no setoff with respect to any distributions to be made under the Plan on account of the Bank Claims, including the Bank Secured Claims.
 
(1)       Section 1111(b) Election Made. In the event that Class 1 makes the Section 1111(b) Election, the Allowed Bank Claims will be treated as Allowed Bank Secured Claims in the approximate aggregate amount of $183,000,000.00 for obligations (including with respect to unpaid principal balance, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all administrative and other fees or penalties) under the Credit Agreement. If such election is made, there will be no Unsecured Deficiency Claims. Each holder of an Allowed Bank Secured Claim shall receive its pro rata share of $49,000,000.00 in cash in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of, and in exchange for, such Allowed Bank Secured Claim. Such cash payment shall be made to the Administrative Agent, which shall be authorized and directed to make further distributions consistent with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall receive the Administrative Agent Fees in an amount consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and the Reorganized Debtor is authorized to pay such Administrative Agent Fees without the need for further Bankruptcy Court approval. Collectively, the distributions of payments to the holders of Bank Claims and of the Administrative Agent Fees to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Plan shall be in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of, and in exchange for, any and all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement.
 
(2)       Section 1111(b) Election Not Made.

The Reorganized Debtor or its successor(s) may pursue such retained claims, rights or causes of action, suits, or proceedings as appropriate, in accordance with the best interests of the Reorganized Debtor or its successor(s) who hold such rights.

ARTICLE V
 
PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS
 
A.        Delivery of Distributions; Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions
 
(i)         Delivery of Distributions in General
 
The Reorganized Debtor shall make distributions to each holder of an Allowed Claim and an Allowed Interest at the address for each such holder reflected in the books and records of the Debtor. The Administrative Agent is authorized and directed to make further distributions to each holder of a Class 1 or Class 5 claim, as applicable, and to retain the Administrative Agent Fees, in each case consistent with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Distributions under the Plan shall be made only to the holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests as of the Record Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reorganized Debtor is authorized to pay such Administrative Agent Fees owed pursuant to the Credit Agreement without the need for further Bankruptcy Court approval.
 
(ii)        Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions
 
1.         Holding of Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions
 
If any holder’s distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions to that holder shall be made unless and until the Reorganized Debtor receives notice of the holder’s then-current address, at which time all outstanding distributions shall be made to the holder. Undeliverable distributions made through the Reorganized Debtor shall be returned to the Reorganized Debtor until such distributions are claimed. The Reorganized Debtor shall establish a segregated account to serve as the unclaimed distribution reserve, and all undeliverable and
 

 
16

 

unclaimed distributions shall be deposited therein, for the benefit of all similarly situated Persons until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable, is claimed, or is forfeited under the terms of the Plan.
 
2.         Failure to Claim Undeliverable Distributions
 
Any undeliverable or unclaimed distribution under this Plan that does not become deliverable on or before the second anniversary of the Effective Date shall be deemed to have been forfeited and waived, and the Person otherwise entitled thereto shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting its Claim therefor against, or seeking to recover its distribution from, the Debtor, the Estate, the Reorganized Debtor, or their property. After the second anniversary of the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall withdraw any amounts remaining in the unclaimed distribution reserve for distribution in accordance with this Plan.
 
B.        Calculation Of Distribution Amounts Of New Common Stock
 
No fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be issued or distributed under the Plan or by the Reorganized Debtor. Each Person entitled to receive New Common Stock will receive the total number of whole shares of New Common Stock to which such Person is entitled.
 
C.        Withholding and Reporting Requirements
 
In connection with this Plan and all distributions hereunder, the Reorganized Debtor shall, to the extent applicable, comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions hereunder shall be subject to those requirements. The Reorganized Debtor shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with those withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, (i) each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution of its pro rata share of New Common Stock shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any governmental unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution, and (ii) no distribution shall be made to or on behalf of such holder pursuant to this Plan unless and until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to the Reorganized Debtor for the payment and satisfaction of such tax obligations or has, to the Reorganized Debtor’s satisfaction, established an exemption therefrom. Any distribution of shares of New Common Stock to be made pursuant to this Plan shall, pending the implementation of such arrangements, be treated as undeliverable pursuant to Article V.A hereof.
 
D.        Setoffs
 
The Reorganized Debtor may, but shall not be required to, set off against any Claim, and the payments or other distributions to be made in respect of that Claim, claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor may have against the Claim’s holder, but neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Reorganized Debtor of any claim that the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor may have in connection with such Claim.
 

 
17

 

 
ARTICLE VI
 
TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS
AND UNEXPIRED LEASES
 
A.        Assumed Contracts and Leases
 
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, or in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan, as of the Effective Date, the Debtor shall be deemed to have assumed each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease to which it is a party unless such Executory Contract (other than the Investment Agreements) or Unexpired Lease: (1) was assumed or rejected previously by the Debtor; (2) expired or terminated pursuant to its own terms before the Effective Date; (3) is the subject of a motion to reject filed on or before the Effective Date; or (4) is otherwise identified as an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to be rejected before the Effective Date. The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code approving the Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumptions as of the Effective Date.
 
All Assumed Agreements shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of the Reorganized Debtor, and be enforceable by the Reorganized Debtor in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any provision in such Assumed Agreement that prohibits, restricts or conditions such assumption, assignment or transfer. Any provision in the Assumed Agreements that purports to declare a breach or default based in whole or in part on commencement or continuance of this Chapter 11 Case is hereby deemed unenforceable, and the Assumed Agreements shall remain in full force and effect. Any provision of any agreement or other document that permits a person to terminate or modify an agreement or to otherwise modify the rights of the Debtor based on the filing of the Chapter 11 Case or the financial condition of the Debtor shall be unenforceable.
 
The Debtor shall be deemed to have assumed the Investment Agreements as of the Effective Date. To the extent that that the Debtor has entered into Investment Agreements postpetition subject to confirmation of the Plan, the Debtor shall be authorized to perform under such postpetition Investment Agreement as of the Effective Date.
 
B.        Payments Related to Assumption of Contracts and Leases
 
Any monetary amounts by which any executory contract and unexpired lease to be assumed under the Plan is in default shall be satisfied, under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by Cure in the ordinary course of business.
 
C.        Indemnification Obligations
 
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any obligations or rights of the Debtor to indemnify its present and former directors, officers, or employees under its certificate of incorporation, by-laws, or employee-indemnification policy, or under state law or any agreement with respect to any claim, demand, suit, cause of action, or proceeding, shall survive and be unaffected by this Plan’s confirmation, and remain an obligation of the Reorganized Debtor, regardless of whether the right to indemnification arose before or after the Petition Date.
 

 
18

 

D.        Treatment of Change of Control Provisions
 
The entry of the Confirmation Order, consummation of the Plan, and/or any other acts taken to implement the Plan shall not constitute a “change in control” under any provision of any contract, agreement or other document which provides for the occurrence of any event, the granting of any right, or any other change in the then-existing relationship between the parties upon a change in control of the Debtor.
 
ARTICLE VII
 
ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN
 
A.        Record Date
 
Only the holders of Claims and Interests as of the Record Date, in the Classes entitled to vote on the Plan, shall be allowed to vote on the Plan. In addition, distributions to be made under the Plan shall be made only the holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests as of the Record Date.
 
B.        Classes Entitled to Vote
 
Only Claims, Interests, or Warrants in Class 1, Class 5 (if applicable), Class 6, Class 7, and Class 8 are Impaired. Holders of Claims or Interests in Class 1, Class 5 (if applicable), and Class 6 as of the Record Date are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Holders of Interests in Class 7 may receive nothing under the Plan but, in any event, Class 7 is deemed to have rejected the Plan. Holders of Warrants in Class 8 will not receive anything under the Plan and Class 8 is therefore deemed to have rejected the Plan. By operation of law, Claims in Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4 are unimpaired, are deemed to have accepted the Plan and, therefore, holders of such Claims are not entitled to vote.
 
C.        Acceptance by Impaired Classes
 
An Impaired Class of Claims, Interests, or Warrants shall have accepted the Plan if (i) the holders of at least two-thirds in amount of the Allowed Claims, Allowed Interests, or Allowed Warrants actually voting in the Class have voted to accept the Plan, and (ii) the holders of more than one-half in number of the Allowed Claims, Allowed Interests, or Allowed Warrants actually voting in the Class have voted to accept the Plan, in each case not counting the vote of any holder designated under section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
D.        Section 1111(b) Election
 
Each holder of an Allowed Bank Claim is entitled to vote to have Class 1 make the Section 1111(b) Election. As discussed in Article III.B.i.1, votes by holders of Allowed Bank Claims in favor of Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election (i) are valid, enforceable, and applicable solely with respect to this Plan, (ii) are null and void with respect to any other plan that might be proposed, absent the consent of the applicable holder of the Allowed Bank Claims voting in favor of Class 1 making the Section 1111(b) Election, and (iii) may be revoked in the event that there is any material change to the treatment of Bank Claims under this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no revocation of a vote in favor of Class 1 making the Section
 

 
19

 

 
1111(b) Election shall change any vote to accept or reject the Plan. If Class 1 does not make the Section 1111(b) Election, the resulting Unsecured Deficiency Claims shall constitute Class 5 Claims as set forth in Article III above.
 
E.        Cramdown
 
The Debtor will request that the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan under section 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code and, accordingly, will seek cramdown of Class 7 and Class 8. Such cramdown is justified because no holders of junior Interests or Warrants will receive anything on account of such Interests or Warrants.
 
In the event that Class 6 rejects the Plan, the Debtor will also seek cramdown of Class 6 and request that the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan under section 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code. Such cramdown is justified because in the event that Class 6 rejects the Plan, holders of Non-TARP Interests in Class 7 shall not receive or retain any property under the Plan on account of such Non-TARP Interests and, in any event, holders of Warrants in Class 8 shall not receive or retain any property under the Plan on account of such Warrants.

RETENTION OF JURISDICTION
 
Under sections 105(a) and 1142 of the Bankruptcy Code, and notwithstanding the Plan’s Confirmation and the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction over all matters arising out of or related to the Chapter 11 Case and the Plan, to the fullest extent permitted by law, including jurisdiction to
 
A.        Enter such orders as may be necessary or appropriate to execute, implement, or consummate the provisions of the Plan and all contracts, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents created in connection with the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or the Confirmation Order;

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, pursuant to section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and to the extent allowed by applicable law, on the Effective Date and effective as of the Effective Date, for the good and valuable consideration provided by each of the Released Parties, including the service of the Released Parties to facilitate the expeditious reorganization of the Debtor and the implementation of the restructuring contemplated herein, the Debtor shall provide a full discharge and release to each Released Party (and each such Released Party so released shall be deemed fully released and discharged by the Debtor) and their respective properties from any and all Causes of Action, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, liquidated or unliquidated, contingent or non-contingent, existing as of the Effective Date in law, at equity, whether for tort, fraud, contract, violations of federal or state securities laws or otherwise, arising from or related in any way to the Debtor, including, without limitation, those Causes of Action that the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor would have been legally entitled to assert in its own right or that any holder of a Claim, an Interest, or a Warrant or other entity would have been legally entitled to assert on behalf of the Debtor or its Estate, and further including those Causes of Action in any way related to the Chapter 11 Case or the Plan; provided, however, that the foregoing release shall not operate to waive or release any Causes of Action of the Debtor arising from claims for gross negligence, intentional fraud, or willful misconduct by a Released Party.
 
Notwithstanding any provision of this Article or the Plan, the Plan shall not effect a release, discharge, exculpation, injunction against the exercise of, or other impairment or extinction of any rights or claims of the New Investors or the Debtor under the Investment Agreements.
 
Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, of the foregoing releases by the Debtor, and further, shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that the foregoing releases are: (i) in exchange for good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties, a good faith settlement, and compromise of the Claims released by such release; (ii) in the best interests of the Debtor and all
