2. SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION APPLICABLE.

As described in the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”) of Charys Holding Company, Inc. (“Charys”), Crochet & Borel Services, Inc. (“C&B”) and certain of their nondebtor affiliates, the Company will issue $20,000,000 aggregate principal amount of second priority senior secured notes due 2013 (the “New Secured Notes”), which have interest payable at 15% per annum, under the indenture to be qualified hereby (the “Indenture”) to (i) holders of Charys’ 8.75% Senior Convertible Notes due 2012 issued by Charys pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of February 16, 2007, by and among The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (f/k/a The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as trustee, Charys and the Guarantors named therein (the “8.75% Convertible Notes”) and (ii) holders of the 8.75% Senior Convertible Notes due 2012 issued by Charys to Lori Mitchell, Matthew Mitchell, and Carrol Castille (the “Mirror Notes” and, together with the 8.75% Convertible Notes, the “Old Notes”). Holders of the 8.75% Convertible Notes will receive $19,227,000 aggregate principal amount of New Secured Notes and holders of the Mirror Notes will receive $773,000 aggregate principal amount of New Secured Notes pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization.

On February 14, 2008, Charys and C&B, as debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On August 4, 2008, the Debtors filed their original plan and proposed disclosure statement with the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors filed the Plan of Reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court on December 8, 2008 and the Amended Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on January 8, 2009. The Amended Disclosure Statement, including the Plan of Reorganization, was mailed to holders of the Old Notes on January 16, 2009. The Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization on February 26, 2009. The Plan of Reorganization will become effective on the date on which all conditions to consummation of the Plan of Reorganization have been satisfied or waived (the “Effective Date”). The terms of the Plan of Reorganization are contained in the Amended Disclosure Statement dated January 8, 2009 attached hereto as Exhibit T3E.1.

Trust Indenture Act of 1939

The Company hereby acknowledges that under Section 306(c) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), it shall be unlawful for any person, directly or indirectly, to make use of any means or instruments of transportation or communication in interstate commerce or of the mails to offer to sell through the use or medium of any prospectus or

 

 

2

 
 
 

otherwise any security which is not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to which Section 306(c) of the Trust Indenture Act is applicable notwithstanding the provisions of Section 304 of the Trust Indenture Act, unless such security has been or is to be issued under an indenture and an application for qualification has been filed as to such indenture, or while the application is the subject of a refusal order or stop order or (prior to qualification) any public proceeding or examination under Section 307(c) of the Trust Indenture Act.

The Company acknowledges that the Amended Disclosure Statement provided to the holders of Old Notes referred to above could be construed as an offer and the Amended Disclosure Statement was served on the holders of the Old Notes prior to the filing of this application.

The Company represents that none of the New Secured Notes have been issued and covenants that none of the New Secured Notes will be issued prior to this application being declared effective.

Exemption from Securities Act

Generally, Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code exempts an offer and sale of securities under a plan of reorganization from registration under the Securities Act and state securities laws if three principal requirements are satisfied: (i) the securities must be offered and sold under a plan of reorganization and must be securities of the debtor, an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor or a successor to the debtor under the plan; (ii) the recipients of the securities must hold a prepetition or administrative expense claim against the debtor or an interest in the debtor; and (iii) the securities must be issued entirely in exchange for the recipient’s claim against or interest in the debtor, or principally in such exchange and partly for cash or property. The Company believes that the offer of the New Secured Notes under the solicitation of acceptances for the Plan of Reorganization and the exchange of New Secured Notes for Old Notes, together with certain other consideration, under the Plan of Reorganization will satisfy the requirements of Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, such offer and exchange is exempt from the registration requirements referred to above.

3. AFFILIATES.

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 9, 2009 for purposes of the effecting the Plan of Reorganization.

INDENTURE SECURITIES

8. ANALYSIS OF INDENTURE PROVISIONS. The New Secured Notes will be issued under the Indenture the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit T3C.1. The following is a summary of the provisions of the Indenture required to be summarized by Section 305(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. Holders of New Secured Notes are encouraged to read the entire Indenture because many provisions that will control the rights of a holder of New Secured Notes are not described in this analysis. Capitalized terms defined in the Indenture and used (but not otherwise defined) in this section are used in this section as so defined.

 

8


EVENTS OF DEFAULT

Each of the following is an event of default:

(a)        The Company fails to pay: (i) when and as required to be paid herein, any amount of principal of the New Secured Notes; or (ii) within thirty days after the same becomes due, (A) any interest on the New Secured Noted or (B) any other amount payable hereunder; or

(b)        (i) The Company fails to perform or observe certain terms, covenants or agreements contained in the Indenture; or (ii) any Guarantor fails to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in its guarantee; or

(c)        The Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company fails to perform or observe any other covenant or agreement (not specified in clause (a) or (b) above) contained in the Indenture on its part to be performed or observed and such failure continues for thirty days after the Company receives written notice specifying the Default (and demanding that such Default be remedied) from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of New Secured Noted; or

(d)        The Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company: (i) fails to make any payment when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand, or otherwise) in respect of any debt (other than debt under the indenture) having an aggregate principal amount (including undrawn committed or available amounts and including amounts owing to all creditors under any combined or syndicated credit arrangement) of more than $400,000.00; or (ii) fails to observe or perform any other agreement or condition relating to any such other debt or contained in any document evidencing, securing or relating to any of the foregoing, or any other default or event occurs, the effect of which failure, default or other event is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such debt to be demanded or to become due or to be repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed (automatically or otherwise), or an offer to repurchase, prepay, defease or redeem such debt to be made, prior to its stated maturity; or

(e)        The Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company institutes or consents to the institution of any proceeding under any bankruptcy law, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or applies for or consents to the appointment of any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer for it or for all or any material part of its property; or any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer is appointed without the application or consent of such person and the appointment continues undischarged or unstayed for sixty calendar days; or any proceeding under any bankruptcy law relating to any such person or to all or any material part of its property is instituted without the consent of such person and continues undismissed or unstayed for sixty calendar days, or an order for relief is entered in any such proceeding; or

(f)        (i) The Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company admits in writing its inability or fails generally to pay its debts as they become due; or (ii) any writ or warrant of attachment or execution or similar process is issued or levied against all or any material part of the property of any such person and is not released, vacated or fully bonded within thirty days after its issue or levy; or

(g)        There is entered against the Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company: (i) a final judgment or order for the payment of money in an aggregate amount exceeding a set monetary amount (to the extent not covered by independent third party insurance as to which the insurer does not dispute coverage); or (ii) any one or more non-monetary final judgments that have, or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect and, in either case: (A) enforcement proceedings are commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or order to the extent such proceedings are not the subject of any stay of enforcement or execution; or (B) there is a period of thirty consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, is not in effect; or

(h)        (i) The occurrence of certain events triggering liability under, or termination of, or concerning notices relating to either of the preceding, with respect to a any of certain employee pension benefit plans which has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Company or certain affiliates under Title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) to the employee pension

 

9


benefit plan or the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation exceeding a set monetary amount; or (ii) the Company or any of certain affiliates of the Company fails to pay when due, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, any installment payment with respect to its withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA under certain employee pension benefit plans exceeding a set monetary amount; or

(i)        The Indenture, any guarantee given by the Guarantors, the New Secured Notes security documents or any provision thereof, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than as expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder or satisfaction in full of all the obligations arising thereunder, ceases to be in full force and effect other than in accordance with its terms; or the Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of the Indenture, any guarantee given by a Guarantor, the New Secured Notes security documents or any provision thereof; or the Company or any of certain subsidiaries of the Company denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under the Indenture, any guarantee given by a Guarantor, the New Secured Notes security documents, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind the Indenture, any guarantee given by a Guarantor, the New Secured Notes security documents or any provision thereof.

The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

A Default under clause (b) or (c) above shall not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding New Secured Notes notify the Company and the Trustee of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (b) and (c) above after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an officer’s certificate of any event which is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) above with respect to the Company or certain subsidiaries of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee upon written request of holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding New Secured Notes, by notice to the Company shall declare that the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Securities is due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) above with respect to the Company or certain subsidiaries of the Company occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the New Secured Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holders. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the New Secured Notes by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

AUTHENTICATION AND DELIVERY OF THE NEW SECURED NOTES;

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

An officer of the Company must sign the New Secured Notes for the Company by either manual or facsimile signature. If a person whose signature is on a New Secured Note was an officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the New Secured Note, the New Secured Note shall be valid nevertheless.

A New Secured Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the New Secured Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the New Secured Note has been authenticated under the Indenture.  Each New Secured Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. On the Issue Date, the Company may deliver New Secured Notes in the outstanding aggregate principal amount of $20,000,000 executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Company for the authentication and delivery of such New Secured Notes.

 

10


The New Secured Notes will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global certificates (the “Global Notes”) and certificated securities that do not include a global securities legend (the “Definitive Securities”). The Global Notes will be deposited upon issuance with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in New York, New York, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, in each case for credit to an account of a direct or indirect participant in DTC as described below.

There will be no proceeds (and therefore no application of proceeds) from the issuance of the New Secured Notes because the New Secured Notes will be issued in exchange for the Old Notes in connection with the Plan of Reorganization. No provisions are contained in the Indenture with respect to the Company’s use of proceeds of the issuance of the New Secured Notes.

RELEASE AND SUBSTITUTION OF PROPERTY SUBJECT TO THE LIEN OF THE INDENTURE

Except as otherwise provided under the Indenture, collateral may be released from the liens created by the New Secured Notes security documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the New Secured Notes security documents, the subordination agreement or as provided in the Indenture. Upon the request of the Company pursuant to an officer’s certificate certifying that all conditions precedent hereunder have been met, the Company and the Guarantors will be entitled to a release of assets included in the collateral from the liens created by the New Secured Notes security documents securing the New Secured Notes, and the collateral agent and the Trustee (if the Trustee is not then the collateral agent) shall release the same from such liens at the Company’s sole cost and expense, under one or more of the following circumstances:

(a)        if all other liens on such property or assets securing first priority lien obligations (including all commitments and letters of credit thereunder) are released; provided, however, that if the Company or any Guarantor subsequently incurs first priority lien obligations that are secured by liens on property or assets of the Company or any Guarantor of the type constituting the collateral and the related liens are incurred pursuant to the definition of Permitted Liens relating to first priority liens in favor of the lenders under the first priority security documents, then the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company will be required to reinstitute the security arrangements with respect to the collateral in favor of the New Secured Notes, which, in the case of any such subsequent first priority lien obligations, will be second priority liens on the collateral securing such first priority lien obligations to the same extent provided by the New Secured Notes security documents and on the terms and conditions of the security documents relating to such first priority lien obligations, with the liens created by the New Secured Notes security documents held either by the administrative agent, collateral agent or other representative for such first priority lien obligations or by a collateral agent or other representative designated by the Company to hold the second priority liens for the benefit of the holders of the New Secured Notes and subject to an intercreditor agreement that provides the administrative agent or collateral agent substantially the same rights and powers as afforded under the subordination agreement to be entered into in connection with the Indenture;

(b)        to enable the Company or any Guarantor to consummate the disposition of such property or assets to the extent not prohibited by the Indenture;

(c)        in the case of a Guarantor that is released from its guarantee with respect to the New Secured Notes, the release of the property and assets of such Guarantor; or

 

(d)

as described under Article 9 of the Indenture (Amendments and Waivers).

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

The Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, as expressly provided for in the Indenture) as to all outstanding New Secured Notes when:

(a)        either (i) all the New Secured Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than New Secured Notes which have been replaced pursuant to the Indenture or paid and New Secured Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all of the New Secured Notes have become due and payable or will become due and payable or redeemable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. government guaranteed securities or a combination thereof in

 

11


an amount sufficient in the written opinion of a firm of independent public accountants delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if government guaranteed securities have been so deposited) to pay and discharge the entire debt on the New Secured Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the New Secured Notes to the date of maturity or redemption together with irrevocable instructions from the Company directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be;

(b)        the Company and/or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under the Indenture; and

(c)        the Company has delivered to the Trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel stating that all conditions precedent under the Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, certain of the Company’s obligations shall survive.

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE WITH CONDITIONS AND COVENANTS

(1) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an officer’s certificate signed by the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer or the principal accounting officer of Company complying with Section 314(a)(4) of the Trust Indenture Act stating that a review of the activities of the Company and certain subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing officer with a view to determining whether they have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under the Indenture and the New Secured Notes security documents and further stating, as to such officer signing such certificate, that to the best of such officer’s actual knowledge the Company and such certain subsidiaries during such preceding fiscal year have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every condition and covenant under the Indenture and the New Secured Notes security documents in all material respects and at the date of such certificate there is no Default or Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing or, if such signer does know of such Default or Event of Default, the certificate shall describe the Default or Event of Default and its status with particularity.

(b)        an opinion of counsel in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with.

(4) Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided for in this Indenture (other than the certificate pursuant to (1) or (2) above) shall include:

(a)        a statement that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

(b)        a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(c)        a statement that, in the opinion of such individual, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

 

12
