ARTICLE V PROVISIONS REGARDING VOTING AND DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE PLAN, ALLOWANCE OF CERTAIN CLAIMS, AND TREATMENT OF DISPUTED, CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CLAIMS, CLAIMS AND EQUITY INTERESTS ---------------------------------------------------------- 5.01 Voting of Claims and Equity Interests ------------------------------------- Each holder of an Allowed Claim or Equity Interest in an Impaired Class of Claims or Equity Interests that is entitled to vote on the Plan pursuant to the Code shall be entitled to vote separately to accept or reject the Plan as provided in such order as may be entered by the Court establishing certain procedures with respect to the solicitation and tabulation of votes to accept or reject the Plan, or any other order or orders of the Court. 5.02 Nonconsensual Confirmation ("Cram down") ---------------------------------------- To the extent any Impaired Class of Claims or Equity Interests entitled to vote does not accept the Plan by the statutory majorities required by section 1126(c) of the Code, the Debtor is requesting confirmation of the Plan under the cram down provisions of section 1129(b) of the Code. 5.03 Method of Distribution Under the Plan ------------------------------------- (a) Subject to Rule 9010, and except as otherwise provided in Section 5.03 of the Plan, all distributions under the Plan shall be made by the Reorganized Debtor to the holder of each Allowed Claim at the address of such holder as listed on the Schedules as of the Distribution Record Date unless the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor has been notified in writing of a change of address, including by the filing of a proof of Claim by such holder that provides an address different from the address reflected on the Schedules. (b) Any payment of Cash made by the Reorganized Debtor pursuant to the Plan shall be made by check drawn on a domestic bank or by wire transfer. (c) Any payment or distribution required to be made under the Plan on a day other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. (d) No payment of Cash less than one hundred dollars ($100.00) shall be made by the Reorganized Debtor to any holder of a Claim unless a request therefor is made in writing to the Reorganized Debtor, or unless the Distribution is a final Distribution. (f) No fractional amounts of Cash shall be distributed pursuant to the Plan. When any distribution on account of an Allowed Claim pursuant to the Plan would otherwise result in the Distribution of Cash that is not a whole number, the actual Distribution shall be rounded as follows: fractions of 1/2 or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number and fractions of less than 1/2 shall be rounded to the next lower whole number. (g) Any distributions of Cash or other property under the Plan that are unclaimed for a period of six (6) months after the Distribution Date shall be vested in Reorganized Debtor and any entitlement of any holder of any Claim to such distributions shall be extinguished and forever barred. (h) Unless otherwise provided herein, all Initial Distributions and deliveries to be made on the Effective Date shall be made on the Initial Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subsequent distributions shall be made on the Judgment Distribution Date and each Subsequent Distribution Date in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan unless the administrative costs of making such distributions would be excessive in comparison to the amounts to be distributed. (i) At the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the claims register shall be closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record holders of any Claims. The Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor and any Disbursing Agent shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of any Claims occurring after the Distribution Record Date, provided that the foregoing will not be deemed to prohibit the sale or transfer of any Claim subsequent to the Distribution Record Date and prior to the Effective Date. The Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor and any Distribution Agent shall instead be entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes under the Plan with only those record holders as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. 5.04 Distributions Withheld for Disputed General Unsecured Claims ------------------------------------------------------------ (a) Establishment and Maintenance of Reserve On the Effective Date and each Subsequent Distribution Date, to the extent necessary, the Reorganized Debtor shall reserve from the Distributions to be made on such dates to the holders of Allowed Claims, an amount in Cash or New Common Stock equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of the Distributions to which holders of Disputed Claims would be entitled under the Plan as of such dates if such Disputed Claims were Allowed Claims in their Disputed Claim Amounts or as estimated by the Debtor or the Court in accordance with Section 5.09 of the Plan (the "Disputed Claims Reserve"). The Debtor is not aware of any Disputed General Unsecured Claims. (b) Property Held in Disputed Claims Reserve Cash or New Common Stock in the Disputed Claims Reserve shall (together with all distributions thereon) be held in trust by the Reorganized Debtor for the benefit of the potential recipients of such Cash and shall not constitute property of the Reorganized Debtor. (c) Distributions Upon Allowance of Disputed General Unsecured Claims The holder of a Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim subsequent to the Effective Date shall receive distributions of Cash and any other consideration from the Disputed Claims Reserve from the Reorganized Debtor within ten (10) days following the date on which such Disputed becomes an Allowed Claim pursuant to a Final Order. Such distributions shall be made in accordance with the Plan. (d) No Surplus Distributions to Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims or Allowed Equity Interests To the extent that a Disputed Claim is not Allowed or becomes an Allowed Claim in an amount less than the Disputed Claim Amount, the excess of Cash and any other consideration in the Disputed Claims Reserve over the amount of Cash and any other consideration actually distributed on account of such Disputed shall revest in the Reorganized Debtor. (e) Expenses of Disputed Claims Reserve Except as otherwise ordered by the Court, the amount of any reasonable expenses incurred by the Reorganized Debtor or the Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date with respect to the Disputed Claims Reserve shall be paid by the Reorganized Debtor. 5.05 Procedures for Allowance or Disallowance of Disputed Claims ----------------------------------------------------------- (a) Objections to and Resolution of Administrative Claims, Claims and Equity Interests Except as to applications for allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses under sections 330 and 503 of the Code, the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor shall have the exclusive right to make and file objections to Administrative Claims, Claims and Equity Interests subsequent to the Effective Date. All objections shall be litigated to Final Order; provided, however, that following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall have the authority to compromise, settle, otherwise resolve or withdraw any of their objections without approval of the Court. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor shall file all objections to Claims and Equity Interests and serve such objections upon the holder of the Claim or Equity Interest as to which the objection is made as soon as is practicable, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Effective Date or such later date as may be approved by the Court. The Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor reserve the right to object to Administrative Claims as such claims arise in the ordinary course of business. The Reorganized Debtor shall bear all costs and expenses relating to the investigation and prosecution of Disputed Claims and Disputed Equity Interests from and after the Effective Date. (b) No Distribution Pending Allowance Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if any portion of a Claim or Equity Interest is disputed, the full amount of such Claim or Equity Interest shall be treated as a Disputed Claim or Disputed Equity Interest for purposes of this Plan, and no payment or distribution provided under the Plan shall be made on account of such Claim or Equity Interest unless and until such Disputed Claim or Disputed Equity Interest becomes an Allowed Claim or Allowed Equity Interest (in whole or in part). (c) Disallowed Claims All Claims or Equity Interests held by Persons against whom the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor has commenced a proceeding asserting a cause of action under sections 542, 543, 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, and/or 550 of the Code, shall be deemed "disallowed" Claims or Equity Interests pursuant to section 502(d) of the Code and holders of such Claims or Equity Interests shall not be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan, unless a motion under Bankruptcy Rule 3018 is filed and granted before [________], the deadline for voting on the Plan. Claims or Equity Interests that are deemed disallowed pursuant Section 5.06(c) of the Plan shall continue to be disallowed for all purposes until the avoidance action against such party has been settled or resolved by Final Order and any sums due to the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor from such party have been paid. 5.06 Disbursing Agent ---------------- The Reorganized Debtor, or such Person(s) as the Reorganized Debtor may designate with approval of the Court, will act as Disbursing Agent under the Plan with respect to all distributions to holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and will make all distributions required to be distributed under the applicable provisions of the Plan. Any Disbursing Agent may employ or contract with other entities to assist in or make the distributions required by the Plan. Each Disbursing Agent will serve without bond, and each Disbursing Agent, other than the Reorganized Debtor, will receive, without further Bankruptcy Court approval, reasonable compensation for distribution services rendered pursuant to the Plan and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such services from the Reorganized Debtor on terms acceptable to the Reorganized Debtor. The Reorganized Debtor shall hold all reserves and accounts pursuant to the Plan and the Disputed Claims Reserve. 5.07 Setoffs and Recoupment ---------------------- The Debtor may, but shall not be required to, set off (pursuant to the provisions of sections 553 and 362 of the Code or other applicable law) against or recoup from any Claim and the payments to be made pursuant to the Plan in respect of such Claim of any nature whatsoever that the Debtor may have against the claimant, but neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtor of any setoff or recoupment right it may have against the holder of such Claim. 5.08 Allocation of Plan Distributions Between Principal and Interest --------------------------------------------------------------- To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated to the principal amount (as determined for federal income tax purposes) of the Claim first, and then to accrued but unpaid interest. 5.09 Estimations of Claims --------------------- For purposes of calculating and making distributions under the Plan, the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, shall be entitled to estimate, in good faith and with due regard to litigation risks associated with Disputed Claims, the maximum dollar amount of Allowed and Disputed Claims, inclusive of contingent and/or unliquidated Claims in a particular Class. The Debtor and the Reorganized Debtor may at any time request that the Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Code or otherwise regardless of whether the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor previously objected to such Claim or whether the Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning such objection to any claim, including without limitation, during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, as determined by the Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn, or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Court. 5.10 No Recourse ----------- Notwithstanding that the Allowed amount of any particular Disputed Claim is reconsidered under the applicable provisions of the Code and Rules or is Allowed in an amount for which after application of the payment priorities established by the Plan there is insufficient value to provide a recovery equal to that received by other holders of Allowed Claims in the respective Class, no Claim holder shall have recourse against the Disbursing Agent, the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or any of their respective professionals, consultants, officers, directors or Affiliates or their respective successors or assigns, or any of their respective property. However, nothing in the Plan shall modify any right of a holder of a Claim under section 502(j) of the Code. THE ESTIMATION OF CLAIMS AND ESTABLISHMENT OF RESERVES UNDER THE PLAN MAY LIMIT THE DISTRIBUTION TO BE MADE ON INDIVIDUAL DISPUTED CLAIMS, REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT FINALLY ALLOWED ON ACCOUNT OF SUCH DISPUTED CLAIMS. 5.11 Amendments to Claims -------------------- A Claim may be amended prior to the Confirmation Date only as agreed upon by the Debtor and the holder of such Claim, or as otherwise permitted by the Court, the Rules or applicable law. After the Confirmation Date, a Claim may not be amended without the authorization of the Court. Any amendment to a Claim filed after the Confirmation Date shall be deemed disallowed in full and expunged without any action by the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor or the Estate, unless the Claim holder has obtained prior Court authorization for the filing of such amendment. 5.12 Postpetition Interest on Claims ------------------------------- Unless expressly provided in the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or any contract, instrument, release, settlement, or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan or required by applicable law, postpetition interest shall not accrue on or after the Petition Date on account of any Claim. ARTICLE VI EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES ---------------------------------------- 6.01 Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases ------------------------------------------------------------ ------ (a) Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases The Code grants the Debtor the power, subject to the approval of the Court, to assume or reject executory contracts and unexpired leases. If an executory contract or unexpired lease is rejected, the other party to the agreement may file a claim for damages incurred by reason of the rejection. In the case of rejection of leases of real property, such damage claims are subject to certain limitations imposed by the Code. Pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Code, all executory contracts and unexpired leases between the Debtor and any Person shall be deemed rejected by the Reorganized Debtor as of the Effective Date, except for any executory contract or unexpired lease (i) which previously has been assumed or rejected pursuant to an order of the Court entered prior to the Effective Date, (ii) as to which a motion for approval of the assumption or rejection of such executory contract or unexpired lease has been filed and served prior to the Effective Date or (iii) which is listed on the Assumption List which shall be filed with the Court and served on the affected parties by no later than ten (10) days prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing; provided, however, that the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor shall have the right, on or prior to the Confirmation Date, to amend the Assumption List to delete any executory contract or unexpired lease therefrom or add any executory contract or unexpired lease thereto, in which event such executory contract(s) or unexpired lease(s) shall be deemed, respectively, assumed or rejected. The Debtor or Reorganized Debtor shall provide notice of any amendments to the Assumption List to the non- debtor parties to the executory contracts and unexpired leases affected thereby. The listing of a document on the Assumption List shall not constitute an admission by the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor that such document is an executory contract or an unexpired lease or that the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor have any liability thereunder. (b) Schedules of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases; Inclusiveness Each executory contract and unexpired lease listed or to be listed on the Assumption List that relates to the use or occupancy of real property shall be deemed to include (i) all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such executory contract or unexpired lease, without regard to whether such agreement, instrument or other document is listed on the Assumption List and (ii) all executory contracts or unexpired leases appurtenant to the premises listed on the Assumption List, including, without limitation, all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, powers, uses, usufructs, reciprocal easement agreements, vault, tunnel or bridge agreements or franchises, and any other interests in real estate or rights in rem relating to such premises, unless any of the foregoing agreements previously have been assumed. (c) Insurance Policies Each of the Debtor's insurance policies and any agreements, documents or instruments relating thereto, including without limitation, any retrospective premium rating plans relating to such policies, shall be treated as executory contracts under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions under the Plan to any holder of a Claim covered by any insurance policies and related agreements, documents or instruments that are assumed hereunder, shall comply with the treatment provided under the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a waiver or release of any Cause of Action that the Debtor may hold against any entity, including, without limitation, the insurers under any of the Debtor's policies of insurance. (d) Approval of Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute (i) the approval, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Code, of the assumption of the executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed pursuant to Article VI of the Plan and (ii) the approval, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Code, of the rejection of the executory contracts and unexpired leases rejected pursuant to the Plan. 6.02 Cure of Defaults ---------------- To the extent that cure payments are due with respect to an executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan, the amount of such cure payment shall be listed in the Plan Supplement. To the extent that the non-debtor party to any executory contract or unexpired lease disagrees with the cure amount listed in the Plan Supplement, such party must file a notice of dispute with the Court and serve such notice on the Debtors by no later than five (5) days prior to the Confirmation Hearing. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties, within sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall cure any and all undisputed defaults under any executory contract or unexpired lease assumed pursuant to the Plan in accordance with section 365(b)(1) of the Code. All disputed defaults that are required to be cured shall be cured either within thirty (30) days of the entry of a Final Order determining the amount, if any, of the Debtor's or Reorganized Debtor's liability with respect thereto, or as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties. If there are any objections filed, the Court shall hold a hearing. In the event the Court determines that the cure amount is greater than the cure amount listed by the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor may elect to reject the contract or unexpired lease and not pay such greater cure amount. 6.03 Bar Date for Filing Proofs of Claim Relating to Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Rejected Pursuant to the Plan ------------------------------------------------------------ Claims arising out of the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to the Plan must be filed with the Court and/or served upon the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or as otherwise may be provided in the Confirmation Order, by no later than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) notice of entry of an order approving the rejection of such executory contract or unexpired lease, (ii) notice of entry of the Confirmation Order and (iii) notice of an amendment to the Assumption List. Any Claim not filed within such time will be forever barred from assertion against the Debtor, its Estate, the Reorganized Debtor and its property. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, all Claims arising from the rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases shall be treated as Unsecured Claims under the Plan. The Debtor is not aware of any claims arising out of the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease. ARTICLE VII PROVISIONS REGARDING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ----------------------------------------- On the Effective Date, the management, control and operation of the Reorganized Debtor shall become the general responsibility of the board of directors of the Reorganized Debtor, which shall, thereafter, have the responsibility for the management, control and operation of the Reorganized Debtor. 7.01 Meetings of Stockholders ------------------------ In accordance with the Reorganized Debtor's Certificate of Incorporation and the Reorganized Debtor's Bylaws, as the same may be amended from time to time, the first annual meeting of the stockholders of Reorganized Debtor shall be held on a date selected by its board of directors. 7.02 Bylaws and Certificates of Incorporation ---------------------------------------- On the Effective Date, the adoption of the Reorganized Debtor's Certificate of Incorporation and the Reorganized Debtor's Bylaws shall be authorized and approved in all respects to be effective as of the Effective Date, in each case without further action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule, and including without any further action by the stockholders or directors of the Debtor, the Debtor in Possession or the Reorganized Debtor. The Reorganized Debtor's Certificate of Incorporation shall (i) prohibit the issuance of nonvoting equity securities as required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Code, (ii) authorize the reincorporation under the laws of the State of Florida, and (iii) authorize any other actions necessary to implementing the Plan, subject to further amendment of such certificates of incorporation as permitted by applicable law and the applicable organizational documents. 7.03 Selection of Board Members -------------------------- Members of the board of directors shall be selected in accordance with the Reorganized Debtor's Certificate of Incorporation. As of the Effective Date of the Plan, the members of the initial board of directors shall in each case serve until their respective resignations or removal in accordance with applicable law, or the applicable organizational documents. A schedule setting forth the identities of the Initial Board of Directors shall be filed with the Clerk of the Court no later than ten (10) days prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing. Elections, removal and terms of directors will be in accordance with Florida General Corporate Law. 7.04 Corporate Governance -------------------- The business and affairs of the Reorganized Debtor shall be managed by its board of directors in accordance with the Reorganized Debtor's Bylaws, the Reorganized Debtor's Charter and applicable nonbankruptcy law. 7.05 Officers -------- The officers of the Debtor immediately prior to the Effective Date shall in each case serve as the initial officers of the Reorganized Debtor on and after the Effective Date and in accordance with any employment agreement with the Reorganized Debtor, the applicable organizational documents, and applicable nonbankruptcy law. A schedule setting forth the identities of the initial officers shall be filed with the Clerk of the Court no later than ten (10) days prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing. After the Effective Date, the officers of the Reorganized Debtor shall be determined by the board of directors, in each case until their respective resignations or removal in accordance with applicable law and the applicable organizational documents. ARTICLE VIII MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION AND EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION OF PLAN ---------------------------------- Upon confirmation of the Plan, and in accordance with the Confirmation Order, the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as the case may be, will be authorized to take all necessary steps, and perform all necessary acts, to consummate the terms and conditions of the Plan. In addition to the provisions set forth elsewhere in the Plan, the following shall constitute the means for implementation of the Plan. 8.01 The Reorganized Debtor ---------------------- Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date of the Plan, all Assets of the Debtor shall be vested in the Reorganized Debtor. The Reorganized Debtor shall assume all of the Debtor's rights, obligations and liabilities under the Plan. Following the Effective Date, eCom will take steps to acquire one or more operating businesses, and will attempt to negotiate transactional agreements with respect thereto. 8.02 Management ---------- Initially, Barney A Richmond will continue to serve as eCom's chief executive officer, and Mr. Richard Turner will continue to serve as eCom's treasurer and chief financial officer. Messrs. Richmond and Turner will devote sufficient time to eCom in order to pursue its objectives. Messrs. Richmond and Turner will, for the foreseeable future, provide their services to eCom at no cost. Mr. Richmond is Chairman of American Capital Holdings, Inc. He has been an independent advisor and investor in assisting companies, as well as individuals, regarding public offerings, mergers, reverse mergers and a variety of corporate financing issues. Mr. Turner was employed as an accountant responsible for corporate and individual tax returns, business write-up services, and business consulting services, including computer and database management. He was also formerly responsible for financial reporting, budgeting and cost accounting on behalf of a bank. 8.03 Capital Stock and Issuance of New Common Stock ----------------------------------------------- Upon the effective date of the Plan, eCom shall emerge from bankruptcy as a public company. Under the Plan, all holders of Allowed Equity Interests shall retain their Equity Interests, subject to dilution by the New Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Plan. Although eCom believes it has over 5,000 shareholders, a portion of the shares are held in street name and, therefore, eCom is not able to determine the precise number of actual shareholders. There are currently 49,953,112 shares of eCom's common stock outstanding. Under this Plan, eCom will issue approximately 31,593,064 shares of New Common Stock, to be distributed as set forth in Exhibit A hereto to holders of claims in Classes 3A and 3B, and to ACH in repayment of the DIP Financing. After issuance, there will be 81,548,176 shares of common stock outstanding. The New Common Stock to be issued on the Effective Date will be issued pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (and of equivalent state securities or "blue sky" laws) provided by Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 1145. Generally, Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code exempts from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and equivalent state securities and "blue sky" laws the issuance of securities directly or through a warrant to purchase such securities if the following conditions are satisfied: (a) the securities are issued by a debtor, an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or a successor to the debtor under a chapter 11 plan; (b) the recipients of the securities hold a claim against, an interest in, or a claim for an administrative expense against, the debtor and (c) the securities are issued entirely in exchange for the recipient's claim against or interest in the debtor or are issued "principally" in such exchange and "partly" for cash or property. The Debtor believes that the issuance of the New Common Stock will satisfy the aforementioned requirements. 8.04 New Funding ----------- On the Effective Date of the Plan, ACH will advance funds in the form of a loan to the Reorganized Debtor in order to fund obligations under the Plan. Additionally, American Capital Holdings, Inc. shall advance to eCom funds sufficient to comply with reporting requirements under any applicable federal and state securities laws, and to file all required federal, state and local tax returns. The amount of such New Funding is estimated to be $129,000, as set forth in the projections and pro forma balance sheet provided in Plan Exhibit B hereto. ACH has placed this amount in escrow. The New Funding shall be loaned to the Reorganized Debtor on the following terms: (x) the New Funding shall be loaned on an unsecured basis, (y) the New Funding shall accrue interest at the rate of 8% per annum, and (z) the New Funding, plus accrued interest, shall be due and payable in full on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date by either (i) converting such amount into common shares of the Reorganized Debtor's stock at a conversion rate equal to the average trading price of common shares over the five (5) business days preceding the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date, (ii) paying such amount in Cash, or (iii) a combination of (z)(i) and (z)(ii); provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtor may, in its sole discretion, prepay (without penalty) all or any portion of the New Funding, plus accrued interest, at any time prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date by means provided in Section 8.04(z)(i), (ii) or (iii) hereof 8.05 Acquisition of IS Direct Agency, Incorporated --------------------------------------------- On the Effective Date or as soon as practical thereafter, the Reorganized Debtor may continue to pursue negotiations with IS Direct. 8.06 Spin-Off of Subsidiaries ------------------------ On December 1, 2003, the board of directors of eCom approved the spinoff of the Subsidiaries. On June 4, 2004, the board of directors of eCom readopted a resolution to spinoff the Subsidiaries and authorized whatever action necessary to complete this process including acquisitions and mergers. In this regard, the board included instructions for the distribution of stock by its Transfer Agent, Florida Atlantic Stock Transfer (FAST), to the proper entities when the share certificates were properly exercised and costs relating to the issuance of these shares were paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, eCom was not able to pay FAST the amounts required to send out the stock certificates to the shareholders and, therefore, the shares were not issued. Due to eCom's financial condition, eCom was unable to effectuate the spinoffs. In connection with the spinoffs, eCom owned all outstanding and issued shares of common stock in the Subsidiaries. By spinning off the Subsidiaries, eCom distributed the common stock of the Subsidiaries to eCom's shareholders in proportion to the shares held in eCom as of the relevant record date. On November 29, 2004, an involuntary petition was filed against eCom under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code. Thereafter, an order for relief was entered by the United States Bankruptcy Court on May 16, 2005. On June 2, 2005, the shares of the Subsidiaries were distributed to eCom shareholders of record, as of May 27, 2005. Subsequent thereto, eCom caused a registration statement on Form 10-SB to be filed for each of the Subsidiaries. eCom believed that it could effectuate the spinoffs pursuant to the criteria and procedures set forth in the September 16, 1997 Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Legal Bulletin No. 4 issued regarding the applicability of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Bulletin"). eCom was subsequently advised by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") that the Subsidiaries may not qualify for the spinoff procedures set forth in the Bulletin for a number of reasons, including the facts that (i) there may not have been a valid "business purpose" as defined in the Bulletin, and (ii) the certificates evidencing the shares were distributed prior to having an effective Form 10-SB registration statement available for distribution to shareholders. At the request of the SEC staff, eCom voluntarily withdrew the Form 10-SB registration statements. Form 10-SB registration statements will be filed post-Effective Date for each of the Subsidiaries when appropriate transactions are finalized as to each Subsidiary. 8.07 Effectiveness of Securities, Instruments and Agreements ------------------------------------------------------- On the Effective Date, all documents described in the Plan Supplement and all other agreements entered into or documents issued pursuant to the Plan and/or any agreement entered into or instrument or document issued in connection with any of the foregoing, as applicable, shall become effective and binding upon the parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms and conditions and shall be deemed to become effective simultaneously. 8.08 Corporate Action ---------------- On the Effective Date, all matters provided for under the Plan that would otherwise require approval of the stockholders, directors or members of one or more of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or their successors in interest under the Plan shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in full force and effect from and after the Effective Date pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Florida, without any requirement of further action by the stockholders or directors of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor. 8.09 Approval of Agreements ---------------------- Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute approval of the Plan Documents and all such transactions, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date. 8.10 No Change of Control -------------------- Any acceleration, vesting or similar change of control rights of any Person under employment, benefit or other arrangements with the Debtor that could otherwise be triggered by the entry of the Confirmation Order or the consummation of the Plan or any of the transactions contemplated thereby shall be deemed to be waived and of no force or effect. 8.11 Restructuring Transactions -------------------------- On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor or the Subsidiaries may enter into such transactions and may take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effect a corporate restructuring of its respective businesses, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Bylaws of, or otherwise applicable to, the Reorganized Debtor or the Subsidiaries. Such restructuring may include one or more mergers, consolidations, restructures, dispositions, liquidations, or dissolutions, as may be determined by the Reorganized Debtor or the Subsidiaries to be necessary or appropriate (collectively, the "Restructuring Transactions"). The actions to effect the Restructuring Transactions may include: (i) the execution and delivery of appropriate agreements or other documents of merger, consolidation, restructuring, disposition, liquidation, or dissolution containing terms that are consistent with the terms of the Plan and that satisfy the applicable requirements of applicable state law and such other terms to which the applicable entities may agree; (ii) the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of transfer, assignment, assumption, or delegation of any asset, property, right, liability, duty, or obligation on terms consistent with the terms of the Plan and having such other terms to which the applicable entities may agree; (iii) the filing of appropriate certificates or articles of merger, consolidation, or dissolution pursuant to applicable state law; and (iv) all other actions that the applicable entities determine to be necessary or appropriate, including making filings or recordings that may be required by applicable state law in connection with such transactions. The Restructuring Transactions may include one or more mergers, consolidations, restructures, dispositions, liquidations, or dissolutions, as may be determined by the Reorganized Debtor or the Subsidiaries to be necessary or appropriate to result in substantially all of the respective assets, properties, rights, liabilities, duties, and obligations of the Reorganized Debtor or the Subsidiaries vesting in one or more surviving, resulting or acquiring corporations. In each case in which the surviving, resulting, or acquiring corporation in any such transaction is a successor to the Reorganized Debtor, such surviving, resulting, or acquiring corporation will perform the obligations of the Reorganized Debtor pursuant to the Plan to pay or otherwise satisfy the Allowed Claims against the Reorganized Debtor, as applicable and to the extent necessary. 8.12 Operation of the Debtor in Possession Between the Confirmation Date and the Effective Date ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Debtor shall continue to operate as a debtor in possession in the ordinary course, consistent with past practice, subject to the supervision of the Court and pursuant to the Code and the Rules during the period from the Confirmation Date through and until the Effective Date, and any obligation incurred by the Debtor during that period shall constitute an Administrative Claim. 8.13 Administration After the Effective Date --------------------------------------- After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor may operate its business, and may use, acquire, and dispose of its property, free of any restrictions of the Code and Rules. 8.14 Term of Bankruptcy Injunction or Stays -------------------------------------- All injunctions or stays provided for in the Case under sections 105 or 362 of the Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Date. 8.15 Revesting of Assets ------------------- Pursuant to section 1141 of the Code, the property of the Estate of the Debtor shall revest in the Reorganized Debtor on the Effective Date, free and clear of all Liens, Claims and interests of holders of Claims and Equity Interests, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order. 8.16 Causes of Action ---------------- As of the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Code, any and all Actions accruing to the Debtor and Debtor in Possession, including, without limitation, actions under sections 510, 542, 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551 and 553 of the Code, shall become assets of the Reorganized Debtor, and the Reorganized Debtor shall have the authority to commence and prosecute such Actions for the benefit of the Estate. Specifically, the Reorganized Debtor shall continue to prosecute any Action pending on the Effective Date. Further, section 547 of the Code enables a debtor in possession to avoid transfers to a creditor, based upon an antecedent debt, made within ninety (90) days of the petition date, which enables the creditor to receive more than it would under a liquidation. Creditors have defenses to the avoidance of such preferential transfers based upon, among other things, the transfers having occurred as part of the debtor's ordinary course of business, or that subsequent to the transfer the creditor provided the debtor with new value. The Reorganized Debtor will analyze payments made by the Debtor to creditors within ninety (90) days (or in the case of insiders, one year) before the Commencement Date (as set forth in item 3(a) in the Debtor's Statement of Financial Affairs) to determine which such payments may be avoidable as preferential transfers under the Code and, if appropriate, prosecute such actions. After the Effective Date and before the case is closed, the Reorganized Debtor shall have the authority to compromise and settle, otherwise resolve, discontinue, abandon or dismiss all such Causes of Action upon filing and approval of an appropriate motion under Bankruptcy Rule 9019. There are no pending Actions, the Debtor is not currently aware of any Actions, and the Debtor does not currently intend to pursue any Actions, including any Actions against any former insiders. THIS PLAN PROPOSES AN INJUNCTION, WHICH IS DESCRIBED IN SECTIONS 8.17 AND 8.18 BELOW ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8.17 Discharge of Debtor ------------------- Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the rights afforded herein and the treatment of all Claims and Equity Interests herein shall be in exchange for and in complete satisfaction, discharge and release of Claims and Equity Interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Petition Date, against the Debtor and the Debtor in Possession, the Estate, or any of the assets or properties under the Plan. Except as otherwise provided herein, (i) on the Effective Date, all such Claims against and Equity Interest in the Debtors shall be satisfied, discharged and released in full, and (ii) all Persons shall be precluded and enjoined from asserting against the Reorganized Debtor, the Subsidiaries, their successors, or their assets or properties any other or further Claims or Equity Interests based upon any act or omission, transaction or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Confirmation Date, whether or not such holder has filed a proof of Claim or proof of Equity Interest and whether or not such holder has voted to accept or reject the Plan. 8.18 Injunction Related to Discharge ------------------------------- Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, the Confirmation Order or a separate order of the Court, all Persons who have held, hold or may hold Claims against or Equity Interests in the Debtor, are permanently enjoined, on and after the Effective Date, from (i) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind with respect to any such Claim or Equity Interest, (ii) enforcing, attaching, collecting or recovering by any manner or means of any judgment, award, decree or order against the Debtor on account of any such Claim or Equity Interest, (iii) creating, perfecting or enforcing any Lien or asserting control of any kind against the Debtor or against the property or interests in property of the Debtor on account of any such Claim or Equity Interest and (iv) asserting any right of setoff, subrogation or recoupment of any kind against any obligation due from the Debtor or against the property or interests in property of the Debtor on account of any such Claim or Equity Interest. Such injunctions shall extend to the Debtor, its successors, subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective properties and interests in property. 8.19 Injunction Against Interference with the Plan --------------------------------------------- Upon the entry of a Confirmation Order with respect to the Plan, all holders of Claims and Equity Interests and other parties in interest, along with their respective present or former employees, agents, officers, directors, or principals, shall be enjoined from taking any actions to interfere with the implementation or consummation of the Plan, except with respect to actions any such entity may take in connection with the pursuit of appellate rights. ARTICLE IX CONFIRMATION AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PLAN ------------------------------------------ 9.01 Conditions Precedent to Confirmation ------------------------------------ The Plan shall not be confirmed by the Court unless and until the following conditions shall have been satisfied or waived pursuant to Section 9.04 of the Plan: (a) The Confirmation Order shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Debtor and include, among other things, a finding of fact that the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, and their respective present and former members, officers, directors, employees, advisors, attorneys, and agents acted in good faith within the meaning of and with respect to all of the actions described in section 1125(e) of the Code and are therefore not liable for the violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation governing such actions; and (b) All exhibits to the Plan, including those to be contained in the Plan Supplement, shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Debtor and approved by the Court. 9.02 Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness ------------------------------------- The Plan shall not become effective unless and until the following conditions have been satisfied or waived pursuant to Section 9.04 of the Plan: (a) The Confirmation Order shall have been entered and shall be a Final Order (with no modification or amendment thereof), and there shall be no stay or injunction that would prevent the occurrence of the Effective Date; (b) The statutory fees owing to the United States Trustee shall have been paid in full; (c) All other actions, authorizations, filings consents and regulatory approvals required (if any) shall have been obtained, effected or executed in a manner acceptable to the Debtor and remain in full force and effect or, if waivable, waived by the Person or Persons entitled to the benefit thereof. 9.03 Effect of Failure of Conditions ------------------------------- If each condition to the Effective Date specified in the Plan has not been satisfied or duly waived within ninety (90) days after the Confirmation Date, then upon the filing of a motion by the Debtor or a party-in-interest made before the time that all conditions have been satisfied or duly waived, the Confirmation Order may be vacated by the Bankruptcy Court; provided, however, that notwithstanding the filing of such a motion, the Confirmation Order shall not be vacated if each of the conditions to the Effective Date is either satisfied or duly waived before the Court enters an order granting the relief requested in such motion. If the Confirmation Order is vacated, the Plan shall be deemed null and void in all respects, including without limitation the discharge of Claims pursuant to section 1141 of the Code and the assumptions or rejections of executory contracts and unexpired leases as provided by the Plan, and nothing contained herein shall (1) constitute a waiver or release of any Action by, or Claims against, the Debtor or (2) prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtor. 9.04 Waiver of Conditions -------------------- To the extent permitted under the Code, the Debtor may waive one or more of the conditions precedent to confirmation of the Plan, or the condition precedent to effectiveness of the Plan set forth in Section 9.02 of the Plan. To the extent permitted under the Code, the Debtor may waive in writing one or more of the other conditions precedent to confirmation and effectiveness of the Plan, without further notice to parties in interest or the Bankruptcy Court without a prior hearing. ARTICLE X RETENTION OF JURISDICTION ------------------------- The Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction of all matters arising out of, and related to, the Case and the Plan pursuant to, and for the purposes of, sections 105(a) and 1142 of the Code and for, among other things, the following purposes: (a) to hear and determine pending applications for the assumption or rejection of executory contracts or unexpired leases, if any are pending, and the allowance of Claims resulting, therefrom; (b) to determine any and all adversary proceedings, motions, applications and contested matters, and other litigated matters pending on the Confirmation Date; (c) to hear and determine all Actions commenced by the Debtor or any other party in interest with standing to do so, pursuant to sections 505, 542, 543, 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551, and 553 of the Code, collection matters related thereto, and settlements thereof; (d) to hear and determine any objections to or the allowance, classification, priority, compromise, estimation or payments of any Administrative Claims, Claims or Equity Interests; (e) to ensure that distributions to holders of Allowed Claims are accomplished as provided in the Plan; (f) to enter and implement such orders as may be appropriate in the event the Confirmation Order is for any reason stayed, revoked, modified or vacated; (g) to issue such orders in aid of execution and consummation of the Plan, to the extent authorized by section 1142 of the Code; (h) to consider any amendments to or modifications of the Plan, to cure any defect or omission, or to reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or any order of the Court, including, without limitation, the Confirmation Order; (i) to hear and determine all applications for compensation and reimbursement of expenses of Professionals under sections 330, 331, and 503(b) of the Code; (j) to hear and determine disputes arising in connection with the interpretation, implementation or enforcement of the Plan; (k) to recover all assets of the Debtor and property of the Debtor's Estate, wherever located; (l) to determine any Claim of or any liability to a governmental unit that may be asserted as a result of the transactions contemplated herein; (m) to enforce the Plan, the Confirmation Order, and any other order, judgment, injunction or ruling entered or made in the Case, including, without limitation, the discharge, injunction, exculpation and releases provided for in the Plan; (n) to take any action and issue such orders as may be necessary to construe, enforce, implement, execute, and consummate the Plan or to maintain the integrity of the Plan following consummation; (o) to hear and determine matters concerning state, local and federal taxes in accordance with sections 346, 505, and 1146 of the Code (including, but not limited to, an expedited determination under section 505(b) of the Code of the tax liability of the Debtor for all taxable periods through the Effective Date for all taxable periods of the Debtor through the liquidation and dissolution of such entity); (p) to hear any other matter not inconsistent with the Code; and (q) to enter a final decree closing the Case; provided however, that nothing in the Plan shall divest or deprive any other court or agency of any jurisdiction it may have over the Reorganized Debtor under applicable environmental laws. ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS ------------------------ 11.01 Effectuating Documents and Further Transactions. ------------------------------------------------ The Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as the case may be, is authorized to execute, deliver, file or record such contracts, instruments, releases and other agreements or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to implement, effectuate and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan and any notes or securities issued pursuant to the Plan. 11.02 Exemption from Transfer Taxes ----------------------------- Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of notes or equity securities under the Plan, creation of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest, the making or assignment of any lease or sublease, or the making or delivery of any instrument of transfer under, in furtherance of, or in connection with the Plan, including, without limitation, any merger agreements or agreements of consolidation, deeds, bills of sale or assignments executed in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by the Plan, shall not be subject to any stamp, real estate transfer, mortgage recording, or other similar tax. 11.03 Authorization to Request Prompt Tax Determinations. --------------------------------------------------- The Reorganized Debtor is authorized to request an expedited determination under section 505(b) of the Code of the tax liability of the Debtor, for all taxable periods through the Effective Date. 11.04 Exculpation. ------------ Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, neither the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, American Capital Holdings, Inc. as Plan co-proponent, nor any of their respective members, officers, directors, agents, financial advisors, attorneys, employees, equity holders, partners, affiliates and representatives (the "Exculpated Parties") shall have or incur any liability to any holder of a Claim or Equity Interest for any act or omission in connection with, related to, or arising out of, the Case, the Plan, the pursuit of confirmation of the Plan, the consummation of the Plan or the administration of the Plan or the property to be distributed under the Plan; provided, that the foregoing shall not operate as a waiver or release for (i) any express contractual obligation owing by any such Person, (ii) willful misconduct or gross negligence, and (iii) with respect to Professionals, liability arising from claims of professional negligence which shall be governed by the standard of care otherwise applicable to professional negligence claims under applicable non-bankruptcy law, and, in all respects, the Exculpated Parties shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities under the Plan; provided further that nothing in the Plan shall, or shall be deemed to, release the Exculpated Parties, or exculpate the Exculpated Parties with respect to, their respective obligations or covenants arising pursuant to the Plan; provided further that the foregoing shall not operate as a waiver or release of Claims by governmental entities arising under environmental laws. 11.05 Releases -------- On the Effective Date, the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, and any and all Holders of Claims and Equity Interests shall release unconditionally and are hereby deemed to release unconditionally each of the Debtor, ACH and their post-petition directors and officers, and Professionals (collectively, the "Released Parties") from any and all claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, losses, rights, remedies, causes of action, charges, costs, debts, indebtedness, or liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, event or other occurrence taking place between the Petition Date and the Effective Date, which is in any way relating to the Debtor, this Case, any assets or Property of the Estate, the business or operations of the Debtor, the DIP Financing, any Plan Documents, the Plan, or any of the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that this release provision shall not be applicable to any liability found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from fraud or the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any such party. With respect to Professionals, the foregoing exclusion from this release provision shall also include claims of professional negligence arising from the services provided by such Professionals during the Case. Any such claims shall be governed by the standard of care otherwise applicable to the standard of negligence claims outside of bankruptcy. The Confirmation Order shall enjoin the prosecution by any Person or entity, whether directly, derivatively or otherwise, of any such claim, obligation, suit, judgment, damage, loss, right, remedy, cause of action, charge, cost, debt, indebtedness, or liability which arose or accrued during such period or was or could have been asserted against any of the Released Parties, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order.

This release provision is an integral part of the Plan and is essential to its implementation. 11.06 Injunction Relating to Exculpation ---------------------------------- The Confirmation Order will contain an injunction, effective on the Effective Date, permanently enjoining the commencement or prosecution by the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor and any other Person, whether derivatively or otherwise, of any action or causes of action against any party exculpated, released or discharged pursuant to this Plan. 11.07 Post-Effective Date Fees and Expenses ------------------------------------- From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall, in the ordinary course of business and without the necessity for any approval by the Bankruptcy Court, pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Professional persons thereafter incurred by the Reorganized Debtor, including, without limitation, those fees and expenses incurred in connection with the implementation and consummation of the Plan. 11.08 Payment of Statutory Fees ------------------------- The Reorganized Debtor shall be responsible for timely payment of fees incurred pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1930(a)(6). After confirmation, the Reorganized Debtor shall file with the Court and serve on the United States Trustee a quarterly financial report regarding all income and disbursements, including all plan payments, for each quarter (or portion thereof) the Case remains open. 11.09 Amendment or Modification of Plan --------------------------------- Alterations, amendments or modifications of the Plan may be proposed in writing by the Debtor at any time prior to the Confirmation Date in conformity with section 1127(a) of the Code, provided that the Plan, as altered, amended or modified, satisfies the conditions of sections 1122, 1123 and 1129 of the Code, and the Debtor shall have complied with section 1125 of the Code. The Plan may be altered, amended or modified by the Debtor at any time after the Confirmation Date in conformity with section 1127(b) of the Code, provided that the Plan, as altered, amended or modified, satisfies the requirements of sections 1122 and 1123 of the Code and the Court, after notice and a hearing, confirms the Plan, as altered, amended or modified, under section 1129 of the y Code and the circumstances warrant such alterations, amendments or modifications.

Prior to the Effective Date, the Debtor may make appropriate technical adjustments and modifications to the Plan without further order or approval of the Court. 11.10 Severability ------------ In the event that the Court determines, prior to the Confirmation Date, that any provision in the Plan is invalid, void or unenforceable, such provision shall be invalid, void or unenforceable with respect to the holder or holders of such Claims or Equity Interests as to which the provision is determined to be invalid, void or unenforceable. The invalidity, voidness or unenforceability of any such provision shall in no way limit or affect the enforceability and operative effect of any other provision of the Plan. The Court, at the request of the Debtor, shall have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted. The Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of the Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms. 11.11 Revocation or Withdrawal of the Plan ------------------------------------ The Debtor reserves the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan prior to the Confirmation Date. If the Debtor revokes or withdraws the Plan prior to the Confirmation Date, then the Plan shall be deemed null and void. In such event, nothing contained herein shall constitute or be deemed a waiver or release of any Claims by or against the Debtor or any other Person, an admission against interests of the Debtor, nor shall it prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtor or any Person in any further proceedings involving the Debtor. 11.12 Binding Effect Notices ---------------------- The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtor, the holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and their respective successors and assigns, including, without limitation, the Reorganized Debtor. 11.13 Notices ------- All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor to be effective shall be in writing and, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when actually delivered or, in the case of notice by facsimile transmission, when received and telephonically confirmed, addressed as follows: If to the Debtor: eCom Attention: Barney A.
