The payments to be made to the holders of Allowed Claims in Class 6 as set forth in this paragraph shall be the sole source of distributions to holders of Allowed Claims in Class 6.

Class 7 is unimpaired. Except to the extent that the holder of such Claim agrees to a different treatment, the Liquidating Trust shall pay in Cash on the Effective Date to each holder of an Allowed Convenience Class Claim in Class 7 the principal amount of such Allowed Claim, without interest.

(1)   The Bank’s agreement to subordinate its General Unsecured Claim as provided for herein is only effective if the Plan is confirmed by a Final Order. Nothing in the Plan or the Disclosure Statement shall be construed as acknowledging or authorizing the subordination of the Bank’s General Unsecured Claims in the event the Plan is not confirmed.

 

16



 

J.             Class 10 Interests

 

Class 10 is impaired. The Class 10 Interests shall be deemed canceled on the Effective Date without the payment of any monies or other consideration. Holders of Class 10 Interests will not receive any distribution under the Plan.

EXECUTION OF ITS TERMS

 

A.            Implementation of the Plan

B.            The Liquidating Trust

 

1.             Purpose of the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidating Trust shall be deemed established on the Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement. The purpose of the Liquidating Trust is to liquidate the unliquidated assets of the Debtor’s Estate, make payment of all Allowed Claims pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and distribute the Residual Proceeds, if any, to the Bank.

17



 

standing of debtors-in-possession under section 1107 of the Code, and such other rights, powers and duties incident to causing performance of the Debtor’s obligations under the Plan or otherwise as may be reasonably necessary. Subject to the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the powers of the Liquidating Trust shall include, without limitation: (a) the ability and authority to object to Administrative Claims, Tax Claims and Claims in Classes 4 and 6, and the ability to prosecute or settle such objections and defend claims and counterclaims asserted in connection therewith (including by way of asserting the Debtor’s rights of recoupment, setoff or otherwise); (b) effecting distributions under the Plan to the holders of Allowed Claims pursuant to the terms of the Plan; (c) the sale, lease, license, abandonment or other disposition of any or all of the property of the Liquidating Trust; (d) participation in any post-Confirmation Date motions to amend or modify the Plan or the Liquidating Trust Agreement, or appeals from the Confirmation Order; and (e) participation in actions to enforce or interpret the Plan.

 

If the holder of a Disputed Claim and the Liquidating Trust Trustee agree to a settlement of such holder’s Disputed Claim for an amount not in excess of the face amount of such Disputed Claim, such Claim shall be deemed to be an Allowed Claim as of the Effective Date in an amount equal to the agreed settlement amount without need for further review or approval of the Court. If the proposed settlement involves a Disputed Claim for an amount in excess of the face amount of such Disputed Claim, then the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall provide notice of the proposed settlement (with a 15-day period to object) to the Reorganized Debtors, the Office of the United States Trustee, and counsel for the Bank. If no objection is received by the Liquidating Trust Trustee within the 15-day period, the settled Claim shall be deemed to be an Allowed Claim as of the Effective Date without the need for further review or approval of the Court. If an objection to a proposed settlement is received within the 15-day period, the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall schedule a Court hearing to resolve the objection.

 

4.             Establishment of Reserve. Pursuant to the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall maintain a reserve in trust for the payment of any administrative expenses of the Liquidating Trust, any applicable taxes, any Tax Claims, any Administrative Claims, and any Disputed Claims which later become Allowed Claims.

 

18



 

5.             Employment of Professionals. The Liquidating Trust Trustee is authorized, without further order of the Court, to employ such Entities, including professionals, as he/she/it may deem necessary to enable him/her/it to perform his/her/its functions under the Plan, and the costs of such employment and other expenditures shall be paid solely from assets transferred to, or payments received by, the Liquidating Trust as provided in the Plan. Such Entities shall be compensated and reimbursed for their reasonable and necessary fees and out-of-pocket expenses on a monthly basis from the Liquidating Trust without further notice, hearing or approval of the Court except as set forth in the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

 

6.             Objections to Claims by the Liquidating Trust. All objections to Disputed Claims to be filed by the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall be filed with the Court and served upon the holders of such Claims by the later of (a) 90 days after the Effective Date, or (b) 90 days after the particular proof of claim has been filed, except as extended by an agreement between the claimant and the Liquidating Trust, or by order of the Court upon a motion filed by the Liquidating Trust, with notice of such motion to be served upon the Office of the United States Trustee and those holders of Disputed Claims to whom the objection is made. If an objection has not been filed to a proof of claim that relates to a Disputed Claim by the objection bar dates established in this paragraph, the Claim to which the proof of claim relates shall be treated as an Allowed Claim for purposes of distribution under the Plan.

 

7.             Distributions. Distributions shall be made in accordance with the Plan, the Confirmation Order, and the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

 

(a)           Reserve for Unpaid Claims. For purposes of calculating Pro Rata distributions or any other distributions to be made under the Plan to holders of Allowed Claims, the calculation of the total Allowed Claims shall be computed as if all Disputed Claims then pending were allowed in the full amount thereof.

 

(b)           Initial Distribution Date. Except for payments required to be made on the Effective Date in accordance with other sections of the Plan, and subject to the discretion of the Liquidating Trust Trustee, on the one hundred twenty first (121st) day after the Effective Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall distribute

 

19



 

any property required to be distributed under the Plan (and in accordance with Liquidating Trust Agreement) to the holders of Allowed Claims.

 

(c)           Allowance of Claims. Distributions shall be made with respect to any Disputed Claim which becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date on or as soon as practicable after the date on which each Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim. The amount of any distribution shall be calculated, on a Pro Rata basis, so that each Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim receives an initial distribution equal to the total percentage distributions made prior to the date of such allowance on account of other Allowed Claims under the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

 

(d)           Subsequent Distribution Dates. After the Initial Distribution Date, unless otherwise directed in the Plan or a post-Confirmation Date Final Order , the Liquidating Trust Trustee shall make additional annual distributions (to be made every twelfth month following the Effective Date) to the holders of Allowed Claims, provided that in the reasonable discretion and judgment of the Liquidating Trust Trustee, there shall be in the Liquidating Trust Cash in an amount sufficient to render feasible a distribution after making reasonable reserves to pay the expenses (including, but not limited to, federal income taxes and withholding taxes, if any, and all expenses and fees incurred in objecting to Claims), debts, charges, liabilities, and obligations of the Liquidating Trust, and provided that each distribution to a single Creditor must exceed $25.00. Any annual distribution which is less than $25.00 shall be withheld and carried-over to the next period only once; thereafter, the distribution shall be made notwithstanding the fact that it may be less than $25.00.

 

(e)           Unclaimed Property. Unclaimed Property that shall remain unclaimed at the end of one (1) year following the date of an attempted distribution shall be reallocated to other Creditors and redistributed by the Liquidating Trust. After the expiration of one (1) year following the date of an attempted distribution, each Claim with respect to Unclaimed Property shall be treated as if it had been disallowed in its entirety and all right, title and interest therein shall vest in the Liquidating Trust for redistribution in the order and priority established in the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement. Until the expiration of one (1) year

 

20



 

following the date on which the distribution of the Unclaimed Property has been attempted, Unclaimed Property shall be delivered upon presentation of proper proof by a holder of its entitlement thereto.

 

(f)            Surrender. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive any distribution under the Plan in respect of such Allowed Claim until such holder has surrendered to the Liquidating Trust any promissory note or other document(s) evidencing such Allowed Claim, or until evidence of loss and indemnity satisfactory to the Liquidating Trust Trustee, in his/her/its sole and absolute discretion, shall have been delivered to the Liquidating Trust in the case of any note or other document(s) alleged to be lost, stolen or destroyed.

 

(g)           Final Distribution. Pursuant to the Plan, the Residual Proceeds from the Liquidating Trust shall be paid to the Bank as soon as practical after (a) the liquidation of all of the assets of the Estate, (b) the payment of all of the expenses and other obligations of the Liquidating Trust including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Liquidating Trust Trustee and the fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals retained by the Liquidating Trust Trustee, (c) the payment of all Allowed Tax Claims, Allowed Priority Claims, Allowed Administrative Claims and Allowed Claims in Class 6 pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and (d) the Med Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note and the CDSI Note are paid in full.

 

(h)           Exemption From Certain Transfer Taxes. Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of a security, or the making or delivery of an instrument of transfe r under a plan confirmed under section 1129 of the Code, may not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax. Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, no transfer to or from the Liquidating Trust under the Plan, shall be subject to any stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax.

 

(i)            Estimation of Unliquidated Disputed Claims. As to any unliquidated Disputed Claim, including Claims based upon rejection of executory contracts or leases, or other Disputed Claims, the Court, upon motion by the Liquidating Trust, may estimate the amount of the Disputed Claim and may determine an amount sufficient to reserve for any

 

21



 

such Claim. Any Entity whose Disputed Claim is so estimated shall have recourse only against the Liquidating Trust and against no other assets or person (including the Liquidating Trust Trustee), and in any case only in an amount not to exceed the estimated amount of such Entity’s Claim, even if such Entity’s Claim, as finally allowed, exceeds the maximum estimated amount thereof.

 

(j)            Certain Tax Matters. For all federal and state income tax purposes, the Debtors shall report and treat the transfer of property conveyed to the Liquidating Trust as a sale of such assets at a selling price equal to the fair market value of such assets on the date of the transfer. For all such purposes, the transferred assets shall be deemed to have the fair market values determined by the Liquidating Trust Trustee in his/her/its absolute and sole discretion, and such valuations shall be used by Debtors and the Liquidating Trust for all federal and state income tax purposes. The Liquidating Trust shall be deemed to be a “disputed ownership fund” within the meaning of Proposed Treasury Regulation section 1.468B-9. The Debtor shall irrevocably make and constitute the Liquidating Trust Trustee as its attorney- in-fact to prepare, make, and file any statement referenced in Proposed Treasury Regulation section 1.468B-9, or, at the election of the Liquidating Trust Trustee, shall prepare, make, and file such statement(s) pursuant to instructions issued by the Liquidating Trust Trustee. Any such statement shall be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Trustee’s determination of the fair market values of the property conveyed to the Trustee of the Liquidating Trust.

 

(k)           The Disbursing Agent. The Liquidating Trustee shall serve as the disbursing agent, without bond, for purposes of making transfers and payments under the Plan.

 

C.            The Litigation Trust

 

1.             Purpose of the Litigation Trust. The Litigation Trust shall be deemed established on the effective date of the CDSI Plan pursuant to the terms of the Litigation Trust Agreement.

22



 

the CCS Note, and the Med Note). No other Creditors or Entities shall receive any proceeds from the Recovery Rights.

 

2.             Transfers of the Recovery Rights to the Litigation Trust. On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Recovery Rights shall be irrevocably assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Litigation Trust.

 

3.             Management and Powers of the Litigation Trust. After the Effective Date, the affairs of the Litigation Trust and all assets held or controlled by the Litigation Trust shall be managed under the direction of the Litigation Trust Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Litigation Trust Agreement. The powers of the Litigation Trust shall include, without limitation: (a) the initiation and prosecution in every capacity, including as representative of the Estates under section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Code, of the Recovery Rights assigned to the Litigation Trust; (b) the compromise and settlement of any of the Recovery Rights assigned to the Litigation Trust; (c) effecting distributions of Net Recoveries on the Recovery Rights to the Bank (after payment of the CDSI Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note, and the Med Note); (d) participation in any post-Confirmation Date motions to amend or modify the Plan or the Litigation Trust Agreement, or appeals from the Confirmation Order as it relates to the Litigation Trust; and (e) participation in actions to enforce or interpret the Plan as it relates to the Litigation Trust. The management and other powers of the Litigation Trust and the rights of all parties with respect to the Litigation Trust and the Litigation Trust Trustee are as more fully described in the CDSI Plan and the Litigation Trust Agreement, which are attached hereto as exhibits “1” and “3,” respectively, and are incorporated herein by this reference.

 

D.            The Administrative Claims Fund

 

The Administrative Claims Fund shall be established by the Debtor, Trestle, the Reorganized Debtors and Med on the Effective Date for the purpose of making distributions to holders of Allowed Administrative Claims of the Debtor, Trestle, Med, CDSI, CCG and CCS.

On, the Effective Date, or as soon as practical thereafter, the Reorganized Debtors shall distribute Cash from the Administrative Claims Fund to the Liquidating Trust, the Med Liquidating Trust, the Trestle Liquidating Trust, and the Reorganized Debtors in amounts sufficient to enable these Entities to make the required effective date distributions to holders of Administrative Claims of the Debtor, Trestle, Med, CDSI, CCG and CCS pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Trestle Plan, the Med Plan and the CDSI Plan, respectively.

On the Effective Date, except for those assets and causes of action transferred to the Creditors’ Trusts and the Litigation Trust pursuant to sections V.E.2 and V.F.2 of the Plan, title to all assets, properties, and business operations of the Debtors and of the Estates shall revest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, and thereafter, the Reorganized Debtors shall own and retain such assets free and clear of all liens and Claims, except as expressly provided in the Plan.  From and after the Effective Date, except as otherwise described in this Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall own and operate such assets without further supervision by or jurisdiction of this Court.  From and after the Effective Date, in accordance with the terms of this Plan and the Confirmation Order, the Reorganized Debtors shall perform all obligations under all executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed in accordance with Article VI of the Plan.

If the holder of a Disputed Claim in Classes A-4, B-4, or C-4 and the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee agree to a settlement of such holder’s Disputed Claim for an amount not in excess of the face amount of such Disputed Claim, provided that the face amount of the Disputed Claim is less than $50,000, such Claim shall be deemed to be an Allowed Claim as of the Effective Date in an amount equal to the agreed settlement amount without need for further review or approval of the Court.  If the proposed settlement involves a Disputed Claim that was filed in a face amount greater than or equal to $50,000, or the proposed settlement amount exceeds the fact amount of such Disputed Claim, then the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee shall provide notice of the proposed settlement (with a 15-day period to object) to each of the

 

41



 

members of the Committee (as constituted on the Confirmation Date), the Office of the United States Trustee, and counsel for the Reorganized Debtors.  If no objection is received by the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee within the 15-day period and the proposed settlement amount is not in excess of the fact amount of such Disputed Claim, the settled Claim shall be deemed to be an Allowed Claim as of the Effective Date without the need for further review or approval of the Court.  If an objection to a proposed settlement is received within the 15-day period or the proposed settlement amount in excess of the fact amount of such Disputed Claim, the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee shall schedule a Court hearing to resolve the objection, or approve the proposed settlement, as the case may be.

 

6.             Establishment of Reserve.  Pursuant to the terms of the Creditors’ Trust Agreements, the Creditors’ Trust Trustees shall maintain a reserve in trust for the payment of any administrative expenses of the Creditors’ Trusts, taxes, and any Disputed Claims, which may later become Allowed Claims.  No distributions shall be made on account of any Disputed Claims unless and until such Claims become Allowed Claims as provided in the Creditors’ Trust Agreements.

 

7.             Employment of Professionals.  The Creditors’ Trust Trustees are authorized, without further order of the Court, to employ such Entities, including professionals, as he/she/it may deem necessary to enable him/her/it to perform his/her/its functions under the Plan, and the costs of such employment and other expenditures shall be paid solely from assets transferred to, or payments received by, the Creditors’ Trusts as provided in the Plan.  Such Entities shall be compensated and reimbursed for their reasonable and necessary fees and out-of-pocket expenses on a monthly basis from the Creditors’ Trusts without further notice, hearing or approval of the Court except as set forth in the Creditors’ Trust Agreements.

 

8.             Objections to Claims by the Creditors’ Trusts.  All objections to Disputed Claims in Classes A-4, B-4, and C-4 to be filed by the Creditors’ Trust Trustees shall be filed with the Court and served upon the holders of such Claims by the later of (a) 90 days after the Effective Date, or (b) 90 days after the particular proof of claim has been filed, except as extended by an agreement between the claimant and the applicable Creditors’ Trust, or by order

 

42



 

of the Court upon a motion filed by the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee, with notice of such motion to be served upon the Office of the United States Trustee and those holders of Claims to which the objection is made.  If no objection has been filed to a proof of claim by the objection bar dates established in this paragraph, the Claim to which such proof of claim relates shall be treated as an Allowed Claim for all purposes under the Plan.

 

9.             Distributions.  Distributions shall be made in accordance with the Plan, the Confirmation Order, and the Creditors’ Trust Agreements.

 

(a)           Reserve for Unpaid Claims.  For purposes of calculating Pro Rata distributions or any other distributions to be made under the Plan to holders of Allowed Claims, the calculation of the total Allowed Claims shall be computed as if all Disputed Claims then pending were allowed in the full amount thereof.

 

(b)           Initial Distribution Date.   Except for payments required to be made on the Effective Date in accordance with other sections of the Plan, and subject to the discretion of the Creditors’ Trust Trustees, on the one hundred twenty first (121st) day after the Effective Date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Creditors’ Trust Trustees shall distribute to the holders of Allowed Claims in Classes A-4, B-4, and C-4 any property required to be distributed to such holders under the Plan (and in accordance with Creditors’ Trust Agreements).  Payment to the Bank on account of its Class B-1.1 and B-1.2 Claims, or the allocation of proceeds to repay the CCG Note, the CDSI Note, the CCS Note, or the Med Note in accordance with Article IV of the Plan, shall occur as soon as practicable after Net Recoveries are obtained.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Creditors’ Trust Trustees may, in their respective sole discretion, distribute any property required to be distributed under the Plan prior to the one hundred twenty first (121st) day after the Effective Date.

 

(c)           Allowance of Claims.  Distributions shall be made with respect to any Disputed Claim, which becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, on or as soon as practicable after the date on which a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.  The amount of any distribution shall be calculated on a Pro Rata basis, so that each Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim receives an initial distribution equal to the total percentage

 

43



 

distributions made prior to the date of such allowance on account of other Allowed Claims of the same Class under the Plan and the applicable Creditors’ Trust Agreement.

 

(d)           Subsequent Distribution Dates.  After the Initial Distribution Date, unless otherwise directed in a post-Confirmation Date Final Order, the Creditors’ Trust Trustees shall make additional quarterly distributions (to be made every third month following the Initial Distribution Date) to the holders of Allowed Claims in Classes A-4, B-4, and C-4, of the Cash then held in the respective Creditors’ Trusts (after reasonable reserves to pay the expenses [including, but not limited to, federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes, if any, and all expenses and fees incurred in the prosecution of the CCG Recovery Rights or in objecting to Claims], debts, charges, liabilities, and obligations of each Creditors’ Trust have been made in the reasonable discretion of the Trustee of such Creditors’ Trust), provided that each distribution to a single Creditor must exceed $25.00 and any distribution which is less than $25.00 shall be withheld and carried-over to the next distribution date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution to any Creditor shall be made even if it is less than $25.00.

 

(e)           Unclaimed Property.  Until the expiration of ninety (90) days following the date on which the distribution of the Unclaimed Property has been attempted, Unclaimed Property shall be delivered upon presentation of proper proof by a holder of its entitlement thereto, after which time the holder of an Allowed Claim entitled to such Unclaimed Property shall cease to be entitled thereto.  Thereafter, all right, title and interest therein shall vest in the Creditors’ Trusts for redistribution in accordance with the Plan and the applicable Creditors’ Trust Agreement.  After the expiration of ninety (90) days following the date of an attempted distribution of Unclaimed Property, each Claim with respect to such Unclaimed Property shall be treated as if it had been disallowed in its entirety.

 

(f)            Surrender.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive any distribution under the Plan in respect of such Allowed Claim until such holder has surrendered to the Creditors’ Trusts any promissory note or other document(s) evidencing such Allowed Claim, or until evidence of loss and indemnity satisfactory to the Creditors’ Trust Trustees, in his/her/its sole and absolute discretion, shall have

 

44



 

been delivered to the Creditors’ Trust in the case of any note or other document(s) alleged to be lost, stolen or destroyed.

 

(g)           Final Distribution.  Upon resolution of all outstanding objections to Disputed Claims in Classes A-4, B-4, and C-4, and after all payments to be made by the Reorganized Debtors to the Creditors’ Trusts on account of the CCG Note, the CDSI Note, and the CCS Note have been received by the Creditors’ Trusts, and after the payment of all expenses and other obligations of the Creditors’ Trusts, and after the CCG Recovery Rights have all been resolved or abandoned and the Bank’s share of the Net Recoveries has been distributed (if applicable under sections IV.L and IV.M of the Plan), the Creditors’ Trust Trustees shall make Pro Rata distributions of all remaining assets of the Creditors’ Trusts to holders of Allowed Claims in Classes A-4, B-4, and C-4 in accordance with the Plan and the Creditors’ Trust Agreements.

 

(h)           Exemption From Certain Transfer Taxes.  Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of a security, or the making or delivery of an instrument of transfer under a plan confirmed under section 1129 of the Code, may not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax.  Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, no transfer to or from the Creditors’ Trusts, the Litigation Trust, or the Administrative Claims Fund under the Plan, shall be subject to any stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax.

 

(i)            Estimation of Unliquidated Disputed Claims.  As to any unliquidated Disputed Claim, including Claims based upon rejection of executory contracts or leases, or other Disputed Claims, the Court, upon motion by a Creditors’ Trust Trustee, may estimate the amount of the Disputed Claim and may determine an amount sufficient to reserve for any such Claim.  Any Entity whose Disputed Claim is so estimated shall have recourse only against the applicable Creditors’ Trust and against no other assets or person (including the Creditors’ Trust Trustees), and in any case only in an amount not to exceed the estimated amount of such Entity’s Claim, even if such Entity’s Claim, as finally allowed, exceeds the maximum estimated amount thereof.

 

45



 

10.           Certain Tax Matters.  For all federal and state income tax purposes, the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors shall report and treat the transfers of property (other than their own debt instruments) to each Creditors’ Trust as sales of such assets at a selling price equal to the fair market value of such assets on the date of the transfer.  For all such purposes, in each case the transferred assets shall be deemed to have the fair market values determined by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as appropriate, in their absolute and sole discretion, and such valuations shall be used by Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors and the Creditors’ Trust.  The Creditors’ Trusts shall be deemed to be “disputed ownership funds” within the meaning of Proposed Treasury Regulation section 1.468B-9.  The Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as appropriate, shall prepare, make, and file with the IRS, with copies to the appropriate Creditors’ Trust Trustee, any statement required by Proposed Treasury Regulations section 1.468B-9.  Any such statements shall be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ determinations of the fair market values of the property conveyed to the Trustee of the Creditors’ Trusts.

 

F.             The Litigation Trust

 

1.             Purpose of the Litigation Trust.  The Litigation Trust shall be deemed established on the Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the Litigation Trust Agreement.  The purpose of the Litigation Trust is to prosecute the Litigation Trust Claims and distribute any net proceeds obtained therefrom to the Bank (after payment of the claims and expenses of the Litigation Trust Trustee and after repayment of any outstanding balances on the CDSI Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note, and the Med Note from the proceeds of the Litigation Trust Claims).  No other Creditors or Entities shall receive any proceeds from the Litigation Trust Claims.  Payments of any outstanding balances on the CDSI Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note, and the Med Note that shall be made from the net proceeds of any recoveries on the Litigation Trust Claims shall be made Pro Rata (based on the outstanding amounts due on such notes) until fully repaid.  Thereafter, all net recoveries on the Litigation Trust Claims shall be turned over to the Bank by the Litigation Trust Trustee.

2.             Transfers of the Litigation Trust Claims to the Litigation Trust.  On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Litigation Trust Claims shall be irrevocably assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Litigation Trust.  In the event that a court rules that the Litigation Trust Claims are not assignable to the Litigation Trust, or that the Litigation Trust Trustee lacks standing in any action to enforce the Litigation Trust Claims, ownership of the Litigation Trust Claims shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors, Med, Trestle, or Resource Pharmacy, as applicable.

 

3.             Management and Powers of the Litigation Trust.  After the Effective Date, the affairs of the Litigation Trust and all assets held or controlled by the Litigation Trust shall be managed under the direction of the Litigation Trust Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Litigation Trust Agreement.  The powers of the Litigation Trust shall include: (a) the initiation and prosecution in every capacity, including as representative of the Estates under section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Code, of the Litigation Trust Claims assigned to the Litigation Trust; (b) the compromise and settlement of any such Litigation Trust Claims assigned to the Litigation Trust; (c) effecting distributions of net recoveries on the Litigation Trust Claims to the Bank (after payment of the CDSI Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note, and the Med Note); (d) participation in any post-Confirmation Date motions to amend or modify the Plan or the Litigation Trust Agreement, or appeals from the Confirmation Order as it relates to the Litigation Trust; and (e) participation in actions to enforce or interpret the Plan as it relates to the Litigation Trust.

 

The Litigation Trust Trustee may compromise or settle any Litigation Trust Claim without the need for further review or approval of the Court.

 

4.             Employment of Professionals.  The Litigation Trust Trustee is authorized, without further order of the Court, to employ such Entities, including professionals, as he/she/it may deem necessary to enable him/her/it to perform his/her/its functions under the Plan, and the costs of such employment and other expenditures shall be paid solely from assets transferred to, or payments received by, the Litigation Trust as provided in the Plan.  Such Entities shall be compensated and reimbursed for their reasonable and necessary fees and out-of-pocket expenses

 

47



 

on a monthly basis from the Litigation Trust without further notice, hearing or approval of the Court except as set forth in the Litigation Trust Agreement.

 

5.             Prosecution of the Litigation Trust Claims.  Pursuant to the Confirmation Order, on the Effective Date, the Debtors will irrevocably assign, transfer and convey to the Litigation Trust the Litigation Trust Claims.  The Litigation Trust shall have the full power and authority to initiate, prosecute, compromise or otherwise resolve any and all Litigation Trust Claims, with all net recoveries derived therefrom to be distributed directly to the Bank (after payment of the CDSI Note, the CCG Note, the CCS Note, and the Med Note).  Any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred in respect of the investigation, initiation and prosecution of such claims shall be payable and paid solely by the Litigation Trust.

 

6.             Certain Tax Matters.  For all federal and state income tax purposes, the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors shall treat the Litigation Trust as a grantor trust of the Reorganized Debtors and the Bank.

 

G.            Management of the Reorganized Debtor

 

Prior to the Confirmation Hearing, the Debtors will designate and disclose the identity and affiliations of the initial officers and directors of the Reorganized Debtors, and will file a designation of such officers and directors with the Bankruptcy Court.  Prior to the Confirmation Hearing, the Debtors shall designate and disclose the identity of any insider (as defined in section 101(31) of the Code) that will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtors, and the nature of the compensation for such insider.

 

H.            The Disbursing Agent

 

The Reorganized Debtors shall serve as disbursing agents, without bond, for purposes of making transfers and payments under this Plan, except with respect to distributions to be made by the Creditors’ Trusts, and the Litigation Trust, for which the Creditors’ Trust Trustees and the Litigation Trust Trustee, respectively, shall serve as the disbursing agents, without bond.

 

I.              Objections to Claims by the Reorganized Debtors

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the right and standing to (i) object to and contest the allowance of any Disputed Claim, including any

 

48



 

alleged Secured Claim, by means of objections to Claims, and (ii) compromise and settle such objections to Disputed Claims.  The Reorganized Debtors may litigate to Final Order objections to Disputed Claims.

 

No distribution shall be made pursuant to the Plan to a holder of a Disputed Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim by a Final Order.

 

All objections to Disputed Claims in any Class to be filed by the Reorganized Debtors may be filed with the Court and served upon the holders of such Claims at any time prior to the later of (a) 90 days after the Effective Date, or (b) 90 days after the particular proof of claim has been filed, except as extended by an agreement between the claimant and the Reorganized Debtors, or by order of the Court upon a motion filed by the Reorganized Debtors, with notice of such motion to be served upon the Office of the United States Trustee and those holders of Disputed Claims to whom the objection is made.  If an objection has not been filed to a proof of claim that relates to a Disputed Claim by the objection bar dates established in this section, the Claim to which the proof of claim relates shall be treated as an Allowed Claim for purposes of distribution under the Plan.

 

ARTICLE VI

 

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

 

A.            Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be Assumed

 

All executory contracts and unexpired leases of the Debtors set forth in Exhibit “5” hereto shall be assumed pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Code.  Such assumed executory contracts and unexpired leases shall, as of the Effective Date, vest in the corresponding Reorganized Debtor.  The amounts to be paid by the Debtors to “cure” (for purposes of § 365(b) of the Code) any arrearages or defaults under the contracts and leases to be assumed under this section are specified in Exhibit “5.”  If no amount is specified for a particular contract or lease identified in Exhibit “5,” such amount shall be deemed to be zero dollars ($0).  The Debtors reserve the right to modify Exhibit “5” to remove any of the contracts or leases, thereby causing the rejection of such contract or lease pursuant to section VI.C of the Plan, by filing a written election not less than five (5) days prior to the Confirmation Hearing and serving

 

49



 

such election on the parties to such contract or lease.  Any anti-assignment provision(s) in an executory contract or unexpired lease identified in Exhibit “5” that is inconsistent with sections 365(e) and (f) of the Code, shall be of no force and effect following the Effective Date.

 

B.            Cure Amounts

 

Amounts due under section 365(b)(1)(A) of the Code with respect to any executory contract or unexpired lease assumed pursuant to section VI.A hereof shall be paid by the Reorganized Debtors in full, in Cash, on the Effective Date (except for amounts due under any contracts and leases that were assumed by the Debtors prior to the Confirmation Date, which amounts shall be paid in accordance with the Court’s order(s) authorizing such assumption — any unpaid obligations to cure arrearages under such contracts or leases over time shall become obligations of the Reorganized Debtors if they have not otherwise been paid or assigned to a third party prior to the Effective Date); provided, however, that as to any disputed portion of such cure amounts, payment shall be made on or as soon as practicable after such disputed portion is resolved by Final Order.

 

C.            Rejection of All Other Executory Contracts

 

All executory contracts and unexpired leases of the Debtors other than those described in section VI.A hereof are rejected pursuant to the Plan and the Confirmation Order.

 

D.            Proofs of Claim With Respect to Rejection Damages

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Confirmation Order and Bankruptcy Rule 3002(c)(4), and except as otherwise ordered by the Court, a proof of claim for each Claim arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease shall be filed with the Court no later than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the date of the entry of a Final Order approving such rejection, and (ii) the Confirmation Date, or such Claim shall be forever barred.  All Claims for damages arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease shall be included in Class A-4 (for contracts and leases which pertain to CDSI), Class B-4 (for contracts and leases which pertain to CCG), or Class C-4 (for contracts and leases which pertain to CCS) and any Allowed Claim arising therefrom shall be treated in accordance with Article IV of the Plan.

ARTICLE VII

 

RETENTION OF JURISDICTION

 

Notwithstanding Confirmation or the Effective Date having occurred, the Court shall retain jurisdiction for the following purposes:

 

A.            Allowance of Claims.  To hear and determine the allowance of all Claims and Interests upon objections to any such Claims or Interests;

 

B.            Executory Contract Proceedings.  To act with respect to proceedings regarding the assumption, assignment or rejection of any executory contract or unexpired lease of the Debtors pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Code and Article VI of the Plan, and to determine the allowance and proper classification of any Claims arising from the resolution of any such proceedings;

 

C.            Plan Interpretation.  To resolve controversies and disputes regarding the interpretation of the Plan, the Confirmation Order, the Creditors’ Trust Agreements, and the Litigation Trust Agreement;

 

D.            Plan Implementation.  To implement and enforce the provisions of the Plan, the Confirmation Order, the Creditors’ Trust Agreements, and the Litigation Trust Agreement, and otherwise to enter orders in aid of confirmation and implementation of the Plan, including, without limitation, appropriate orders to protect the Reorganized Debtors, the Creditors’ Trusts, and the Litigation Trust from any action or other proceeding that may be initiated by any Creditor or Interest Holder.  Upon the request of an interested party, the Court may resolve an objection to the payment of professional fees or other administrative costs paid from the Creditors’ Trusts on the ground that they are unreasonable or inconsistent with the requirements of the Code.  All requests for payment of fees by professionals employed by the Creditors’ Trusts shall be served (with a 15-day period to object) on each of the members of the Committee (as constituted on the Confirmation Date) and the Office of the United States Trustee.  If no objection is received by the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee within the 15-day period, the Creditors’ Trust Trustee may pay the fees without the need for further review or approval of the

 

51



 

Court.  If an objection to professional fees incurred by the Creditors’ Trusts is received within the 15-day period, the applicable Creditors’ Trust Trustee shall schedule a Court hearing to resolve the objection.  All fees and expenses of administration and representation of the Creditors’ Trusts shall be paid from the assets of the applicable Creditors’ Trust after approval as specified above;

 

E.             Plan Modification.  To modify the Plan pursuant to section 1127 of the Code and the applicable Bankruptcy Rules;

 

F.             Adjudication of Controversies.  To adjudicate such contested matters and adversary proceedings as may be pending or subsequently initiated in the Court including, but not limited to, actions relating to the CCG Recovery Rights or the Litigation Trust Claims, pending litigation matters, objections to Claims, or actions relating to taxes brought by the Creditors’ Trusts, the Litigation Trust, or the Reorganized Debtors;

 

G.            Injunctive Relief.  To issue any injunction or other relief appropriate to implement the intent of the Plan, and to enter such further orders enforcing any injunctions or other relief issued under the Plan or pursuant to the Confirmation Order;

 

H.            Correct Minor Defects.  To correct any defect, cure any omission or reconcile any inconsistency or ambiguity in the Plan, the Confirmation Order or any document executed or to be executed in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the CCG Creditors’ Trust Agreement, the Creditors’ Trust Agreements, and the Litigation Trust Agreement, as may be necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of the Plan, provided that the rights of any holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest are not materially and adversely affected thereby;

 

I.              Post-Confirmation Orders Regarding Confirmation.  To enter and implement such orders as may be appropriate in the event the Confirmation Order is, for any reason, stayed, reversed, revoked, modified or vacated; and

 

J.             Final Decree.  To enter a final decree closing the Case.

 

52



 

ARTICLE VIII

 

DISCHARGE; RELEASE OF CLAIMS; MODIFICATION; MISCELLANEOUS

 

A.            Discharge.  The rights afforded under the Plan and the treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan shall be in exchange for and in complete satisfaction, discharge, and release of all Claims against the Debtors, including any interest accrued on Claims from the Petition Date.  Except as expressly provided in the Confirmation Order, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors, the Estates, and the Reorganized Debtors shall be discharged from all Claims or other debts that arose before the Confirmation Date and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or not (i) a proof of Claim based on such debt is filed or deemed filed pursuant to section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a Claim based on such debt is allowed pursuant to section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) the holder of a Claim based on such debt has accepted the Plan.  The Creditors’ Trusts and holders of any Claims against the Debtors that arose before the Confirmation Date shall not have any right to assert any claim or cause of action against the Reorganized Debtors except to enforce the terms and provisions of this Plan.

 

B.            Releases of Claims.  The treatment of the Claims of the NCFE Entities and the Bank under the Plan represents the product of extensive negotiations between the Debtors, the NCFE Entities, and the Bank and embodies an agreement reached between the parties.  In exchange for the treatment of the NCFE Entities’ Claims (which have been assigned to the Bank) as set forth in the Plan, the Debtors and the Estates hereby release the NCFE Entities, the TLC Debtors, and the Bank from any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, debts, demands, suits, disputes, breaches of contracts, controversies, damages, accounts, disgorgement rights, executions, and any claims or other remedies, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, past, present or future, asserted or unasserted, contingent or liquidated, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, at law or in equity, which the Debtors and/or the Estates ever had or now have, claim to have had, or hereafter can, shall or may claim to have against the NCFE Entities, the TLC Debtors, and the Bank.

 

In exchange for the treatment of the Debtors’ claims asserted in the bankruptcy cases of the NCFE Entities and the TLC Debtors, and the foregoing releases, the NCFE Entities and the TLC Debtors release the Debtors, the Estates, and the Bank (collectively, the “Released Parties”)

 

53



 

from any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, debts, demands, suits, disputes, breaches of contracts, controversies, damages, accounts, disgorgement rights, executions, and any claims or other remedies, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, past, present or future, asserted or unasserted, contingent or liquidated, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, at law or in equity, which the NCFE Entities or the TLC Debtors ever had or now have, claim to have had, or hereafter can, shall or may claim to have against the Released Parties.

 

Confirmation of the Plan shall constitute Court approval of the compromises reflected herein.  The releases contained in this section shall become effective on the Effective Date.

 

C.            Modification.  The Debtors reserve the right to amend or modify the Plan prior to its confirmation, at all times consistent with and in accordance with section 1127 of the Code.

 

D.            Provisions Severable.  Should any provision in the Plan be determined to be unenforceable, such determination shall in no way limit or affect the enforceability and operative effect of any or all other provisions of the Plan.

 

E.             Headings Do Not Control.  In interpreting the Plan, the headings of individual sections are provided for convenience only, and are not intended to control over the text of any section.

 

F.             Taking Action.  After the Effective Date, to the extent the Plan requires an action by a Debtor, the action may be taken by the Reorganized Debtors on behalf of such Debtor.

 

G.            No Transfer Taxes.  Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, no transfer or sale by the Debtors that has occurred during the Cases shall be subject to any stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax, including any transfers to or from the Creditors’ Trusts, the Litigation Trust, and the Administrative Claims Fund.

 

H.            Termination of Committee.  The Committee shall be dissolved as of the Effective Date, and the members of the Committee shall be relieved of all of their responsibilities and duties in the Cases, and the Committee shall have no further participation in the Cases.

 

I.              Limitation of Liability.  Neither (a) the Debtors, nor any of its employees, officers, or directors employed as of the Effective Date, (b) the Committee, or its members acting

 

54



 

solely in such capacity, or (c) the Facilitator, nor any professional persons employed by any of the foregoing during the pendency of this case, shall have or incur any liability to any person or entity for any act taken or omission made in good faith in connection with, or relating to, the Chapter 11 Cases, any possible disposition of the Debtors’ assets, or to negotiating, formulating, implementing, confirming, or consummating the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or any contract instrument, security, release, or other agreement, instrument, or document created in connection with the foregoing, except for willful misconduct or gross negligence.
