Four Star Insurance Co. Ltd. and Kion de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., both incorporated outside of the United States, and Covia LLC, ULS Ventures, Inc., and United Air Lines Ventures, Inc., each incorporated within the United States, are wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Debtors and have not commenced cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code nor similar proceedings in any other jurisdiction.  These wholly-owned subsidiaries continue to operate in the ordinary course of business outside of bankruptcy.

 

The Plan contemplates the reorganization of the Debtors and the resolution of the outstanding Claims against and Interests in the Debtors pursuant to Section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.  In general, but subject to the specific provisions set forth in the Plan, the obligations owed to Unsecured Creditors of the Debtors will be converted into New UAL Common Stock to be issued by Reorganized UAL, and existing common and preferred Interest Holders of UAL will receive no distribution on account of their existing Interests, which will be cancelled.

 

The Plan contemplates substantive consolidation of the Estates of the United Debtors (i.e., all of the Debtors other than UAL) for all purposes related to the Plan, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution.  Unless substantive consolidation has been approved by an order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Plan shall serve as a motion by the Debtors seeking entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidating the Estates of the United Debtors and the Confirmation Order authorizing substantive consolidation shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the substantive consolidation of the United Debtors.  In the event that the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidates some but not all of the United Debtors, the Debtors reserve the right to proceed with confirmation without substantive consolidation or with partial substantive consolidation as allowed by the Bankruptcy Court.  In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not substantively consolidate any of the United Debtors’ Estates, the Plan provides for twenty-eight Subplans of reorganization for each of the Debtors.  Subject to the Debtors seeking substantive consolidation pursuant to ARTICLE VI.F of the Plan, the confirmation requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code must be satisfied separately with respect to each Subplan and whether substantive consolidation is ordered will have no impact on a Creditor’s distribution.  The Debtors reserve the right to (a) request that the Subplans be confirmed or (b) withdraw some or all Subplans.  Subject to the preceding sentence, the Debtors’ inability to confirm any Subplan or the Debtors’ election to withdraw any Subplan(s) shall not impair the confirmation of any other Subplan(s), or the consummation of any such Subplan.

 

Pursuant to Section 1125(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, a vote to accept or reject the Plan cannot be solicited from a Holder of a Claim until the Disclosure Statement has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court and distributed to Holders of Claims.  In the Chapter 11 Cases, the Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court by order entered on [         ], 2005.  The Disclosure Statement contains, among other things, a discussion of the Debtors’ history, businesses, properties and operations, projections for those operations, risk factors associated with the business and Plan, a summary and analysis of the Plan, and certain related matters including, without limitation, the securities to be issued pursuant to the Plan.

ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS ARE ENCOURAGED TO READ THE PLAN AND THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE VOTING TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN.  IN THE EVENT THE BANKRUPTCY COURT DOES NOT SUBSTANTIVELY CONSOLIDATE THE UNITED DEBTORS’ ESTATES, THE VOTES TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN BY HOLDERS OF CLAIMS SHALL BE DEEMED AS VOTES TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE SUBPLANS OF REORGANIZATION SET FORTH HEREIN AND SUCH VOTES SHALL BE TABULATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE SUBPLANS.

F.                                      Confirmation Pursuant to Sections 1129(a)(10) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code: Section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be satisfied for purposes of Confirmation by acceptance of the Plan by a Class.  The Debtors shall seek Confirmation of the Plan pursuant to Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any Impaired Class presumed to reject

 

68



 

the Plan, and reserve the right to do so with respect to any other rejecting Class of Claims or Interests, as applicable, and/or to modify the Plan in accordance with ARTICLE XIII of the Plan.

 

G.                                     Controversy Concerning Impairment: If a controversy arises as to whether any Claims or Interests, or any Class of Claims or Interests, are Impaired pursuant to the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine such controversy on or before the Confirmation Date.

 

ARTICLE VI.
PROVISIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

 

A.                                   Corporate Existence: Except to the extent that a Debtor ceases to exist pursuant to the Plan, each Debtor shall continue to exist after the Effective Date as a separate corporate entity or limited liability company, with all the powers of a corporation or limited liability company pursuant to the applicable law in the jurisdiction in which each applicable Debtor is incorporated or formed and pursuant to the respective certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other formation documents in the case of a limited liability company) in effect prior to the Effective Date, except to the extent such certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other formation documents in the case of a limited liability company) are amended by the Plan or otherwise, and to the extent such documents are amended, such documents are deemed to be pursuant to the Plan and require no further action or approval.

 

B.                                     Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors: Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or any agreement, instrument, or other document relating thereto, on or after the Effective Date, all property in each Estate and any property acquired by any of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan shall vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, free and clear of all liens, Claims, charges, or other encumbrances (except for liens, if any, granted to secure the New Credit Facility, Claims pursuant to the DIP Facility that by their terms survive termination of the DIP Facility, or as otherwise provided in the Plan).  On and after the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor may operate its business and may use, acquire, or dispose of property and compromise or settle any Claims or Interests without supervision or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rules, other than those restrictions expressly imposed by the Plan and the Confirmation Order.

 

C.                                     Sales of New UAL Common Stock on Behalf of Holders of Unsecured Convenience Class Claims and Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claims: On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the first Periodic Distribution Date, to facilitate the payment of the Unsecured Convenience Class Distribution and the Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Distribution, the Reorganized Debtors shall fund the Unsecured Convenience Class Account and Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Account with New UAL Common Stock equal to the Unsecured Convenience Class Reserve and the Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Reserve, respectively.  Subject to any measures (including timing delays) necessary or advisable to ensure an orderly market for such stock, the Reorganized Debtors, or one or more third-party brokers or dealers, will effectuate sales of the New UAL Common Stock that is placed in the Unsecured Convenience Class Account or Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Account on behalf of the Holders of Allowed Unsecured Convenience Class Claims or Allowed Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claims.  After such sales are consummated the Reorganized Debtors will

 

69



 

effectuate the Unsecured Convenience Class Distribution and Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Distribution in accordance with the Plan.

 

D.                                    Restructuring Transactions: On or prior to the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may take all actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effect any transaction described in, approved by, contemplated by, or necessary to effectuate the Plan, including, without limitation, the Roll-Up Transactions.  Without limiting the foregoing, such transactions may include: (i) the execution and delivery of appropriate agreements or other documents of merger, consolidation, or reorganization containing terms that are consistent with the terms of the Plan and that satisfy the requirements of applicable law; (ii) the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of transfer, assignment, assumption, or delegation of any property, right, liability, duty, or obligation on terms consistent with the terms of the Plan; (iii) the filing of appropriate certificates of incorporation, merger, or consolidation with the appropriate governmental authorities pursuant to applicable law; and (iv) all other actions that such Debtors and Reorganized Debtors determine are necessary or appropriate, including the making of filings or recordings in connection with the relevant Roll-Up Transactions. In the event a Roll-Up Transaction is a merger transaction, upon the consummation of such Roll-Up Transaction, the merged party shall cease to exist as a separate corporate entity and thereafter the surviving Reorganized Debtor shall assume and perform the obligations of each constituent Reorganized Debtor pursuant to the Plan.  Implementation of the Roll-Up Transactions shall not affect any distributions, discharges, exculpations, releases, or injunctions set forth in the Plan.

 

E.                                      Corporate Action: Upon entry of a Confirmation Order, each of the matters provided for by the Plan involving the corporate structure of the Debtors or corporate or related actions to be taken by or required of the Debtors shall, as of the Effective Date, be deemed to have occurred and be effective as provided in the Plan (except to the extent otherwise indicated), and shall be authorized, approved and, to the extent taken prior to the Effective Date, ratified in all respects without any requirement of further action by stockholders, Creditors, directors, members or managers of the Debtors.  Without limiting the foregoing, such actions may include: the adoption and filing of the Reorganized UAL Charter and Reorganized UAL Bylaws; the appointment of directors and officers for the Reorganized Debtors; the Rights Offering, if any; the adoption and/or implementation of the Management Equity Incentive Plan, the Director Equity Incentive Plan, and the execution, delivery, and performance of the New Credit Facility.

 

F.                                      Substantive Consolidation

 

1.                                       The Plan contemplates substantive consolidation of the United Debtors solely for all of those purposes and actions associated with confirmation and consummation of the Plan, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting and Confirmation.  Unless substantive consolidation has been approved by a prior order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Plan shall serve as a motion by the Debtors seeking entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidating the Estates of the United Debtors and the Confirmation Order authorizing substantive consolidation shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the substantive consolidation of the United Debtors.  On the Confirmation Date, and effective on and after the Effective Date, the Estate of each of the United Debtors (i.e., all Debtors other than UAL) shall be substantively consolidated into the Estate of United for all purposes associated

 

70



 

with confirmation and consummation of the Plan, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting and Confirmation.  In the event that the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidates some but not all of the United Debtors, the Debtors reserve the right to proceed with confirmation with no or partial substantive consolidation consistent with the Bankruptcy Court’s order.

 

2.                                       On and after the Effective Date, (a) all assets and liabilities of the United Debtors shall be treated as though they were merged into the United Estate solely for purposes of the Plan, (b) no distributions shall be made under the Plan on account of Intercompany Claims or Interests between and among any of the Debtors, (c) for all purposes associated with Confirmation, including, without limitation, for purposes of tallying acceptances and rejections of the Plan, the Estates of the United Debtors shall be deemed to be one consolidated Estate for United, (d) all guarantees of any United Debtor of the obligations of any other United Debtor shall be eliminated so that any Claim against any United Debtor and any guarantee thereof executed by any other United Debtor and any joint and several liability of any United Debtor shall be one obligation of the United Debtors, and (e) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the Chapter 11 Cases of the United Debtors shall be deemed filed against the United Debtors, and shall be Claims against and obligations of the United Debtors.

 

3.                                       Substantive consolidation shall not affect: (a) the legal and organizational structure of the United Debtors; (b) pre and post-Petition Date guarantees, Liens, and security interests that are required to be maintained (i) pursuant to any Postpetition Aircraft Agreement, (ii) under the Bankruptcy Code or in connection with contracts or leases that were entered into during the Chapter 11 Cases or executory contracts or unexpired leases that have been or will be assumed, or (iii) pursuant to the Plan; (c) Intercompany Claims and Interests between and among the Debtors; and (d) distributions from any insurance policies or proceeds of such policies.

 

4.                                       In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation of the United Debtors, then except as specifically set forth in the Plan: (a) nothing in the Plan or the Disclosure Statement shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an admission that one of the Debtors is subject to or liable for any Claim against any other Debtor; (b) Claims against multiple Debtors shall be treated as separate Claims with respect to each Debtor’s Estate for all purposes (including, without limitation, distributions and voting), and such Claims shall be administered as provided in the Plan; and (c) the Debtors shall not, nor shall they be required to, resolicit votes with respect to the Plan, nor will the failure of the Bankruptcy Court to approve substantive consolidation of the United Debtors alter the distributions set forth in the Plan.  In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation, the Plan provides for twenty-eight Subplans of reorganization and the confirmation requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code must be satisfied separately with respect to each Subplan.

 

G.                                     Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws: The certificates of incorporation and bylaws (or other formation documents relating to limited liability companies) of the Debtors shall be amended as may be required to be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Bankruptcy Code.  The certificate of incorporation of Reorganized UAL shall be amended to, among other things: (i) authorize 1,000,000,000 shares of New UAL Common Stock; (ii) authorize a certain number of shares of serial preferred stock; (iii) authorize 5,000,000 shares of New UAL Convertible Preferred Stock; (iv) authorize one (1) share of Class Pilot MEC Junior Preferred

 

71



 

Stock; (v) authorize one (1) share of Class IAM Junior Preferred Stock; (vi) pursuant to Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, include (a) a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity securities for two (2) years, but only to the extent required by Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (b) a provision setting forth an appropriate distribution of voting power among classes of equity securities possessing voting power, including, in the case of any class of equity securities having a preference over another class of equity securities with respect to dividends, adequate provisions for the election of directors representing such preferred class in the event of default in the payment of such dividends; and (vii) include restrictions on the direct or indirect transferability of the New UAL Common Stock.  On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, each of the Reorganized Debtors shall file new certificates of incorporation with the secretary of state (or equivalent state officer or entity) of the state under which each such Reorganized Debtor is or is to be incorporated.  After the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor may file a new, or amend and restate its existing, certificate of incorporation, charter, and other constituent documents as permitted by the relevant state corporate law.

 

H.                                    Effectuating Documents, Further Transactions: On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the officers, members of the board of directors, and managers thereof are authorized to and may issue, execute, deliver, file, or record such contracts, securities, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, implement, and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan and the securities issued pursuant to the Plan in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, without the need for any approvals, authorizations, or consents except for those expressly required pursuant to the Plan.

 

I.                                         Post-Effective Date Financing:  The Reorganized Debtors will enter into the New Credit Facility to obtain the funds necessary to satisfy the DIP Facility Claims, make other payments under the Plan, and conduct their post-reorganization operations.  Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed approval of the New Credit Facility and authorization for the Reorganized Debtors to enter into and execute the New Credit Facility Documents and such other documents as the New Credit Facility Lenders may reasonably require to effectuate the treatment afforded to such lenders pursuant to the New Credit Facility, subject to such modifications as the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may deem to be reasonably necessary.

 

J.                                        Rights Offering: To provide additional exit financing and to the extent advisable and appropriate, the Debtors are exploring a variety of potential rights offerings in which they would offer unsecured creditors the opportunity to purchase, on a pro rata basis, approximately $500 million in value of New UAL Common Stock.

 

K.                                    Sources of Consideration for Plan Distribution: All consideration necessary for the Reorganized Debtors to make any distributions pursuant to the Plan shall be obtained from existing assets, the operations of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, post-Confirmation borrowing pursuant to other available facilities of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, the entry into the New Credit Facility, the Rights Offering (if any), and the issuance of New UAL Common Stock.  The Reorganized Debtors may also use Cash received from their direct and

 

72



 

indirect subsidiaries through their consolidated cash management system and from advances or dividends from such subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.

6.                                       Section 1145 Exemption: Pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, the offering, issuance and distribution of any securities contemplated by the Plan and any and all settlement agreements incorporated therein, including, without limitation, the New UAL Plan Securities, shall be exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act and any state or local law requiring registration prior to the offering, issuance, distribution or sale of securities. In addition, under Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code any securities contemplated by the Plan, including without limitation, the New UAL Plan Securities, will be freely tradable by the recipients thereof, subject to (i) the provisions of Section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the definition of an underwriter in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and compliance with any rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such securities or instruments; (ii) the restrictions, if any, on the transferability of such securities and instruments; and (iii) applicable regulatory approval.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in no event shall any grants of equity, or options to acquire equity, under the Management Equity Incentive Plan or the Director Equity Incentive Plan be made if such grant of equity or exercise of options would not qualify during any 12-month period for the “small issuance exception” in Treasury Regulation Section 1.382-3.

 

7.                                       Listing Rights: Reorganized UAL shall use its reasonable efforts to list the New UAL Common Stock on a national securities exchange or for quotation on a national automated interdealer quotation system, but shall have no liability if it is unable to do so.  Persons receiving distributions of New UAL Plan Securities by accepting such distributions shall be deemed to have agreed to cooperate with the Reorganized Debtors’ reasonable requests to assist them in their efforts to list the New UAL Common Stock on a securities exchange or quotation system.

 

8.                                       Restrictions on Resale of Securities to Protect Net Operating Losses: To avoid adverse federal income tax consequences resulting from an ownership change (as defined in

 

74



 

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code), the certificate of incorporation of Reorganized UAL shall restrict the transfer of the New UAL Equity Securities without the consent of its board of directors for five (5) years after the Effective Date such that (a) no holder of 5% or more of the equity of Reorganized UAL may transfer any securities, (b) no transfer will be permitted if it would cause the transferee to hold 5% or more of the equity of Reorganized UAL, and (c) no transfer will be permitted if it would increase the percentage equity ownership of any person who already holds 5% or more of the equity of Reorganized UAL.

 

9.                                       Issuance and Distribution of the New UAL Plan Securities:  The New UAL Plan Securities when issued or distributed as provided in the Plan, will be duly authorized, validly issued and, if applicable, fully paid and nonassessable.  Each distribution and issuance referred to in ARTICLE VI.L shall be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan applicable to such distribution or issuance and by the terms and conditions of the instruments evidencing or relating to such distribution or issuance, which terms and conditions shall bind each Person receiving such distribution or issuance.

 

In connection with the distribution of the New UAL Plan Securities to current or former employees of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors may take whatever actions are necessary to comply with applicable federal, state, local and international tax withholding obligations, including income, social security, and Medicare taxes, including, without limitation, withholding a portion of and selling such securities to satisfy such tax withholding obligations.

 

M.                                 Reinstatement of Interests in Reorganized Debtors Other than UAL Corporation: The Interests in any Debtor (other than in UAL) may be Reinstated for the benefit of the Holder thereof in exchange for the Reorganized Debtors’ agreement to make certain distributions to Holders of Unsecured Claims under the Plan, to provide management services to certain other Reorganized Debtors, and to use certain funds and assets, to the extent authorized in this Plan, to satisfy certain obligations of such other Reorganized Debtors.

 

N.                                    Exemption from Certain Transfer Taxes and Recording Fees: Pursuant to Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, any transfer from a Debtor to a Reorganized Debtor or to any Entity pursuant to, in contemplation of, or in connection with the Plan or pursuant to: (i) the issuance, distribution, transfer, or exchange of any debt, equity security, or other interest in the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, including, without limitation, the transfer of title to or ownership of any of the Debtors’ interest in any aircraft; (ii) the creation, modification, consolidation, or recording of any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security interest, or the securing of additional indebtedness by such or other means; (iii) the making, assignment, or recording of any lease or sublease; or (iv) the making, delivery, or recording of any deed or other instrument of transfer under, in furtherance of, or in connection with, the Plan, including any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, or other instrument of transfer executed in connection with any transaction arising out of, contemplated by, or in any way related to the Plan, shall not be subject to any document recording tax, stamp tax, conveyance fee, intangibles or similar tax, mortgage tax, real estate transfer tax, mortgage recording tax, Uniform Commercial Code filing or recording fee, FAA filing or recording fee, or other similar tax or governmental assessment, and the Confirmation Order shall direct the appropriate federal, state, or local governmental officials or agents to forego the collection of any such tax or governmental assessment and to accept for filing and

 

75



 

recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax or governmental assessment.

 

O.                                    Reduction of Paid-In Capital: As of the Effective Date and after taking account of all of the transactions contemplated by this Plan, for purposes of the Illinois Business Corporation Act of 1983, as amended, 805 Ill.

F.                                      Collective Bargaining Agreements

 

1.                                       Assumption of Collective Bargaining Agreements: Each Collective Bargaining Agreement to which any Debtor is a party, as modified and/or amended from time to time, including by and through the Section 1113 Restructuring Agreements, shall be deemed automatically assumed in accordance with the provisions and requirements of Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date; provided, however, nothing in this ARTICLE VII.F.1 or otherwise in the Plan shall be deemed as an assumption of any pension plan, retirement plan, savings plan, health plan, or other employee benefit plan discontinued or terminated during the Chapter 11 Cases.  The assumption and the Cure of the Collective

 

86



 

Bargaining Agreements, in accordance with the terms of the Section 1113 Restructuring Agreements, shall be in full satisfaction of all Claims and Interests arising under all previous Collective Bargaining Agreements between all parties to the Plan or their predecessors-in-interest.  Upon assumption of the Collective Bargaining Agreements and the Section 1113 Restructuring Agreements, the following Proofs of Claim shall be deemed withdrawn, disallowed, and forever barred from assertion automatically and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court: (i) all Proofs of Claim filed by the Debtors’ Unions; and (ii) all Proofs of Claim filed by Union-represented employees pertaining to rights collectively bargained for or disposed of pursuant to the Collective Bargaining Agreements in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, Claims on account of grievances, reinstatement, and pension obligations; provided, however, that such treatment is without prejudice to the respective Union’s pursuit, payment, or satisfaction of such Claims in the ordinary course under the relevant assumed Collective Bargaining Agreement; provided further, however, that the Debtors reserve the right to seek adjudication of any Collective Bargaining Agreement-related dispute that concern distributions, claims, restructuring transactions, or other aspects of the Plan between the Debtors and the relevant Union in the Bankruptcy Court.  All specifically-denominated pre-petition grievances set forth on the schedules attached to each Union’s Proof of Claim and pending on the Effective Date, including all awards and settlement amounts owing and unpaid in connection therewith, will be processed and paid (pursuant to such awards and settlements) in the ordinary course, as part of the assumption of each Union’s Collective Bargaining Agreement.

 

2.                                       Reservation of Rights Pending Resolution of Litigation: Notwithstanding ARTICLE VII.F.1 of the Plan, the AFA Collective Bargaining Agreement, as modified and/or amended from time to time through the Effective Date, including by and through the AFA Section 1113 Restructuring Agreements, shall be deemed conditionally assumed in accordance with the provisions and requirements of Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that if after the Effective Date: (a) the terminated Flight Attendant Defined Benefit Plan is restored for any reason (including without limitation as a result of legislative, administrative, judicial or other activity (including without limitation as a result of the reversal of the PBGC Settlement Agreement on appeal, the voiding or invalidation of the relevant termination and trusteeship agreement and/or PBGC notice of determination, etc.)), such that the Reorganized Debtors determine in their discretion that re-termination of the Flight Attendant Defined Benefit Plan is required; or (b) the AFA 2005 Restructuring Agreement is terminated for any reason (including without limitation based on arbitration between the parties based on the AFA’s April 8, 2005 notice of termination of such Agreement); then in either event of (a) or (b) set forth above, the Debtors may (and reserve the right to) seek termination of the Flight Attendant Defined Benefit Plan under Title IV of ERISA and/or rejection of the AFA Collective Bargaining Agreement (as modified and/or amended from time to time) under Section 1113 of the Bankruptcy Code, notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date.

 

3.                                       Employee Distributions:  All distributions pursuant to the Distribution Agreements shall be made as though those distributions were on account of Claims or Interests.

 

G.                                     Postpetition Aircraft Agreements:  Subject to the Debtors’ right to terminate or reject any Postpetition Aircraft Agreement prior to Consummation of the Plan pursuant to the terms of such

 

87



 

Agreement: (i) each Postpetition Aircraft Agreement shall remain in place after the Effective Date, (ii) the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to honor each such Agreement according to its terms, and (iii) to the extent any Postpetition Aircraft Agreement requires the assumption by the Debtors of such Agreement and the Postpetition Aircraft Obligation arising thereunder, each such Postpetition Aircraft Agreement and Postpetition Aircraft Obligation shall be deemed assumed as of Consummation of the Plan; provided, however, that the foregoing clause (iii) shall not be deemed or otherwise interpreted as an assumption by the Debtors of any agreement or obligation that is not a Postpetition Aircraft Agreement or Postpetition Aircraft Obligation; provided further, that nothing herein shall limit the Debtors right to terminate such contracts in accordance with the terms thereof.  To the extent that subsequent to the date of this Plan and prior to the Effective Date the Debtors enter into new Postpetition Aircraft Agreements for Aircraft Equipment not currently subject to a Postpetition Aircraft Agreement, the Claims or obligations arising thereunder shall be treated as Postpetition Aircraft Obligations.

 

H.                                    Postpetition Contracts and Leases: Except to the extent otherwise provided herein with respect to Postpetition Aircraft Agreements and subject to the provisions of ARTICLE VII.K, all contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor will be performed by the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor liable thereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions of such contracts and leases in the ordinary course of its business.  Accordingly, such contracts and leases and other obligations (including any executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed other than pursuant to the Plan) will survive and remain unaffected by entry of the Confirmation Order.

 

I.                                         Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases:  Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of the assumption or conditional assumption of the executory contracts and unexpired leases to be assumed under the Plan as of the Effective Date, or as of a conditional assumption becoming final pursuant to ARTICLE VII.E.2 or ARTICLE VII.E.3 above, pursuant to Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code.  Each executory contract and unexpired lease that is assumed shall vest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as may be modified by the provisions of the Plan, any order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing or providing for its assumption, or applicable law.

 

The provisions (if any) of each executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan that are or may be in default shall be satisfied solely by the Cure, or by an agreed-upon waiver of the Cure.  Except with respect to executory contracts and unexpired leases in which the Debtors and the counterparties to such executory contracts and unexpired leases have stipulated in writing to payment of the Cure, all requests for payment of the Cure must be filed with the Claims Agent and served upon counsel to the Debtors on or before the Cure Bar Date.

 

Any request for payment of the Cure that is not timely Filed and served shall be disallowed automatically and shall be forever barred from assertion and shall not be enforceable against any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, any Estate, or property of any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor without the need for any objection by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, and the Claim for the Cure shall be deemed fully satisfied, released and

 

88



 

discharged, notwithstanding any amount or information included in the Schedules or a Proof of Claim filed prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order; provided, however, that nothing shall prevent the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole and absolute discretion, from making a Cure payment despite the failure of the relevant counterparty to file and timely serve such request for payment of such Cure.  The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may settle any Cure without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court except as provided in ARTICLE XV.D.2 of the Plan.  If and to the extent that the Debtors and a counterparty to an executory contract or unexpired lease have stipulated in writing to payment of the Cure, the Debtors will pay such Cure as agreed.

 

If the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors object to a Cure or any potential contractual obligation under any executory contract or unexpired lease that is assumed, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine the Allowed amount of such Cure and any such potential contractual obligation.  If there is a dispute regarding (i) Cure, (ii) the ability of the Reorganized Debtors or any assignee to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” within the meaning of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) any other matter pertaining to assumption, Cure shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable following the entry of a Final Order resolving the dispute and/or approving the assumption (and, if applicable, assignment). The Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to reject any executory contract or unexpired lease no later than fifteen (15) days after the later of (i) the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors and the counterparty to such executory contract or unexpired lease agree in writing to the amount of the Cure, or (ii) the entry of a Final Order establishing the Cure.

 

The provisions of each executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan that are or may be in default shall be satisfied in a manner to be agreed to by the relevant Debtor or Reorganized Debtor.  Pursuant to Section 365(b)(2)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, no Cure shall be allowed for a penalty rate or other form of default rate of interest.

 

Any and all proofs of claim based upon executory contracts or unexpired leases that have been assumed in the Chapter 11 Cases or under the terms of the Plan shall be deemed disallowed and expunged.

 

J.                                        Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases:  Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of the rejection or conditional rejection of the executory contracts and unexpired leases to be rejected under the Plan as of the Effective Date, or as of a conditional rejection becoming final pursuant to ARTICLE VII.E.2 or ARTICLE VII.E.3 above, pursuant to Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code.  The rejection of the executory contracts or unexpired leases of any counterparty is not intended to be and shall not be construed as an indication of the unwillingness of the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors to do business with the counterparty, and the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to negotiate and enter into any contract or lease with any counterparty at any time without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the Municipal Bond Leases, all executory contracts and unexpired leases to be rejected pursuant to the Plan shall be deemed automatically rejected in accordance with the provisions and requirements of Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date or such earlier date as the Debtors may have terminated their performance under such executory contract or unexpired lease, unless another

 

89



 

effective date of rejection shall be set forth in the Plan Supplement for such executory contract or unexpired lease; provided, however, that the effective date of rejection for executory contracts or unexpired leases may be later than the Effective Date of the Plan.

 

On or after the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors reserve their rights to initiate, file, prosecute, enforce, or litigate to judgment (and/or abandon, settle, compromise, release, or withdraw) any and all such claims, rights, and Causes of Action, including, without limitation, such claims, rights, and Causes of Action on account of indemnification, breach of confidentiality, breach of contract, and breach of express or implied warranty that they may have under any executory contract or unexpired lease, notwithstanding the rejection of such executory contract or unexpired lease.

 

A non-Debtor party to an executory contract or unexpired lease whose executory contract or unexpired lease is being or has been rejected under the Plan may request that the Debtors assume such executory contract or unexpired lease by sending a written notice to the counsel to the Debtors, which notice shall include a waiver of any defaults (including payment defaults) and any right to any Cure under such executory contract or unexpired lease.  The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may, in their sole and absolute discretion, assume such executory contract or unexpired lease without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

All Proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of executory contracts or unexpired leases pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, other than Municipal Bond Leases, if any, must be Filed with the Claims Agent and served upon counsel to the Debtors no later than thirty (30) days after the earliest of (i) the date of entry of an order (including, without limitation, the Confirmation Order) of the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejection, (ii) the date of service of a notice that the executory contract or unexpired lease has been rejected, and (iii) the effective date of rejection.  All Proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the conditional rejection of Municipal Bond Leases pursuant to the Plan must be Filed with the Claims Agent and served upon counsel to the Debtors no later than thirty (30) days after a conditional rejection becoming final pursuant to ARTICLE VII.E.2 or ARTICLE VII.E.3 above.  Any Proofs of Claim arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease that are not timely Filed and served shall be disallowed automatically and shall be forever barred from assertion and shall not be enforceable against any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, any Estate, or property of any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor without the need for any objection by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, and the Claim for rejection of the executory contract or unexpired lease shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged, notwithstanding any amount or information included in the Schedules or a Proof of Claim filed prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order.  Rejection of any executory contract pursuant to the Plan, or otherwise, shall not constitute a termination of pre-existing obligations owed to the Debtors.  In particular, the Debtors, notwithstanding any state or non-bankruptcy law to the contrary, expressly reserve and do not waive any right to receive, or any continuing obligation of a contract counter-party to provide, warranties or continued maintenance obligations on goods previously purchased by the Debtors from contract counter-parties to rejected executory contracts.

K.                                    Modifications, Amendments, Supplements, Restatements, or Other Agreements: Unless otherwise provided, each executory contract and unexpired lease that is assumed, whether or not such executory contract or unexpired lease relates to the use, ability to acquire, or occupancy of real property, shall 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 affect such executory contract or unexpired lease, and (ii) all executory contracts or unexpired leases appurtenant to the premises, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, powers, uses, reciprocal easement agreements, and any other interests in real estate or rights in rem related to such premises, unless any of the foregoing agreements has been rejected pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court or is otherwise rejected as part of the Plan.

 

Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to executory contracts and unexpired leases entered into before the Petition Date that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases, and actions taken in accordance therewith, (i) do not alter in any way the pre-petition nature of the executory contract or unexpired lease entered into before the Petition Date, or the validity, priority or amount of any Claims against the Debtors that may arise under such contracts and leases, (ii) are not and do not create a postpetition contract or lease, (iii) do not elevate to administrative expense priority any Claims of the counterparty to the executory contracts and unexpired leases against any of the Debtors, and (iv) do not entitle any entity to a Claim under any Section of the Bankruptcy Code on account of the difference between the terms of any executory contract or unexpired lease entered into before the Petition Date and modification, amendment, supplement, or restatement.

 

L.                                      Reservation of Rights:  Neither the exclusion nor inclusion of any contract or lease by the Debtors on any exhibit in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in the Plan, shall constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is in fact an executory contract or unexpired lease or that any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, or their respective Affiliates, has any liability thereunder.

 

Nothing in the Plan shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, Claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-executory contract or any unexpired or expired lease.

 

Nothing in the Plan shall increase, augment, or add to any of the duties, obligations, responsibilities, or liabilities of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-executory contract or any unexpired or expired lease.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement any list of executory contracts, including, but not limited to, the list of “Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases,” “Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases,” “Rejected Interline & Alliance Related Agreements, Revenue Related Agreements, and Intercompany Contracts,” the “Rejected Current Employment Agreements and Indemnification Obligations,” and the “Rejected Former Employment Agreements and Indemnification Obligations,” in the Plan Supplement at any time through and including thirty (30) days after the Effective Date; provided, however, the Debtors shall not alter, amend, or modify the list of Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to remove the Debtors’ executory contracts and/or unexpired leases with the following parties:

 

91



 

(a) Allegheny County Airport Authority; (b) the City of Phoenix; and (c) Sacramento County; provided further, however, the Debtors shall not alter, amend or modify their decision to either assume or reject the Debtors’ unexpired leases and executory contracts with the Massachusetts Port Authority following Confirmation of the Plan and the Effective Date of such rejection or assumption in connection with the Plan shall be the Effective Date.

 

If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection, then the Debtors shall have thirty (30) days following entry of a final non-appealable order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

 

M.                                 Nonoccurrence of Effective Date:  In the event that the Effective Date does not occur, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to any request to extend the deadline for assuming or rejecting executory contracts or unexpired leases, including, without limitation, assuming or rejecting unexpired leases pursuant to Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

N.                                    Personnel Regulations Series 15:  To the extent that Personnel Regulations Series 15, the Debtors’ written personnel policies governing certain of their employees, is deemed to be an executory contract, notwithstanding the disclaimer that such document expressly provides that it does not create any contractual rights and can be modified at any time, the Debtors reject such agreement upon the Effective Date with all counterparties who are individuals.  The Debtors shall issue a modified version of Personnel Regulations Series 15 as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date.  All Claims of any individual on account of the Personnel Regulations Series 15 and any similar regulations accruing prior to the Effective Date are deemed disallowed and expunged pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

 

ARTICLE VIII.
PROCEDURES FOR TREATMENT OF DISPUTED, CONTINGENT,
AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS PURSUANT TO THE PLAN

 

A.                                   Allowance of Claims and Interests:  Except as expressly provided in the Plan or in any order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), no Claim or Interest shall be deemed Allowed, unless and until such Claim or Interest is deemed Allowed pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Court enters a Final Order in the Chapter 11 Cases allowing such Claim or Interest.  Except as expressly provided in the Plan or in any Final Order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), after Confirmation each Reorganized Debtor shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses such Debtor had with respect to any Claim or Interest as of Petition Date, including, without limitation, the Causes of Action referenced in ARTICLE VI.X of the Plan.

E.                                      Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claims:  Regardless of whether or not a Holder of an Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claim has filed a Proof of Claim, such Holder shall be deemed to have an Allowed Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claim or an Allowed Other Unsecured Claim (if such Holder exercises its Retiree “Opt-Out Rights” (as defined in the Solicitation Procedures) against United in the amount listed by the Debtors on such Holder’s

Ballot; provided, however, that if a Holder of an Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class Claim opts out of the Unsecured Retiree Convenience Class and asserts a Claim that is greater than the amount listed on the first page of such Holder’s respective Ballot, the Debtors reserve the right to challenge the amount of such Claim.

 

F.                                      Disallowance of Claims: Any and all Claims held by Entities from which property is recoverable under Section 542, 543, 550, or 553 of this title or that is a transferee of a transfer avoidable under Section 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of this title, shall be deemed disallowed pursuant to Section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and Holders of such Claims may not vote to accept or reject the Plan or receive any distributions on account of such Claims, both consequences to be in effect until such time as such Causes of Action against that Entity have been settled or a Final Order with respect thereto has been entered and all sums due to the Debtors by that Entity have been turned over to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable.  Any and all Proofs of Claim Filed after the relevant Bar Date shall be disallowed and expunged for all purposes, and Holders of such Claims may not vote to accept or reject the Plan or receive any distributions on account of such Claims, unless such Creditors request on or before the Confirmation Hearing that the Bankruptcy Court deem such late claim as being timely filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006.  All Claims Filed after the relevant Bar Date that are (i) not deemed timely filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006 on or before the Confirmation Hearing or (ii) not the subject of a request that the Bankruptcy Court deem such late claim as being timely filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006 as of the Confirmation Hearing shall be deemed disallowed and expunged as of the Effective Date without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.  All Claims filed on account of an Indemnification Obligation to a director, officer, or employee shall be deemed disallowed and expunged as of the Effective Date to the extent such Indemnification Obligation is assumed pursuant to this Plan without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

G.                                     Offer of Judgment: Notwithstanding any limitations on the applicability of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 and any other Bankruptcy Rules, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized to serve upon a Holder of a Claim or Interest an offer to allow judgment to be taken against the respective Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, on account of such Claim or Interest, and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 shall apply to such offer of judgment.  To the extent the Holder of a Claim or Interest must pay the costs incurred by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors after the making of such offer, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are entitled to setoff such amounts against the amount of any distribution to be paid to such Holder without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

H.                                    Amendments to Claims:  A Claim may be amended prior to the Confirmation Date only as agreed upon by the Debtors and the holder of such Claim, or as otherwise permitted by the Bankruptcy Court, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules or applicable law. After the Confirmation Date except as provided in ARTICLE VII.J, a Claim may not be filed or amended without the prior authorization of the Bankruptcy Court. Any such new or amended Claim filed after the Confirmation Date shall be deemed disallowed in full and expunged without any action by the Debtors, or the Reorganized Debtors, unless the Claim holder has obtained prior Bankruptcy Court authorization for the filing.

appropriate Servicer, as appropriate, in such Entity’s sole and absolute discretion, (a) in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4, as modified and made applicable by Bankruptcy Rule 7004; (b) to the signatory set forth on any of the Proofs of Claim or Interest filed by such Holder or other representative identified therein (or at the last known addresses of such Holder if no Proof of Claim or Interest is filed or if the Debtors have been notified in writing of a change of address); (c) at the addresses set forth in any written notices of address changes delivered to the Distribution Agent after the date of any related Proof of Claim or Interest; (d) at the addresses reflected in the Schedules if no Proof of Claim has been filed and the Distribution Agent has not received a written notice of a change of address; (e) in the case of a Holder whose Claim is governed by an agreement and administered by a Servicer, at the addresses contained in the official records of such Servicer; or (f) on any counsel that has appeared in the Chapter 11 Cases on the Holder’s behalf.  Except as provided in ARTICLE VI.W, distributions to the various Classes of Claims pursuant to the Plan shall not be subject to levy, garnishment, attachment, or like legal process by any Holder of Claims, so that each Holder of Claims shall have and receive the benefit of the distributions in the manner set forth in the Plan.  Neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, nor the Distribution Agent shall incur any liability whatsoever on account of any distributions so long as such distributions are made to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests of record as of the Distribution Record Date or to Servicers, if applicable.

 

2.                                       Timing and Calculation of Amounts to be Distributed: Subject to any reserves or holdback established pursuant to the Plan, on the appropriate Periodic Distribution Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, each Holder of an Allowed Claim against or Allowed Interest in the Debtors shall receive the distributions provided for Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests in the applicable Class as of such date.  If and to the extent that there are Disputed Claims or Disputed Interests, distributions on account of such Disputed Claims or Interests shall be made pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Plan.

 

3.                                       Foreign Currency Exchange Rate: As of the Effective Date, any Unsecured Claim asserted in currency(ies) other than U.S. dollars shall be automatically deemed converted to the equivalent U.S. dollar value using the exchange rate as of Monday, December 9, 2002, as quoted at 4:00 p.m., mid-range spot rate of exchange for the applicable currency as published in The Wall Street Journal, National Edition, on December 10, 2002.

 

4.                                       Minimum Distribution

 

a.                                       Fractional Securities; Fractional Dollars: Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, payments of fractions of shares of New UAL Common Stock shall not be made and any such distributions shall be deemed to be zero.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Distribution Agent shall not be required to make distributions or payments of fractions of dollars. Whenever any payment of Cash of a fraction of a dollar pursuant to the Plan would otherwise be called for, the actual payment may reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole dollar (up or down), with half dollars or less being rounded down.

 

b.                                      De Minimis Distributions: Neither the Distribution Agent nor any Servicer shall have any obligation to make a distribution on account of an Allowed Claim from the

 

96



 

New UAL Stock Reserve or otherwise if (i) the aggregate amount of all distributions authorized to be made from such New UAL Stock Reserve or otherwise on the Periodic Distribution Date in question is or has an economic value less than $10,000,000, except the final distribution, or (ii) if the amount to be distributed to the specific Holder of an Allowed Claim on the particular Periodic Distribution Date does not constitute a final distribution to such Holder and is or has an economic value less than $25.00.  The Debtors may agree with their Unions to establish a mechanism for making de minimis distributions of Cash proceeds rather than New UAL Common Stock.

 

c.                                       Undeliverable Distributions

 

(i)                                     In General: If any distribution to a Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest is returned to a Distribution Agent as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until such Distribution Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then-current address, at which time all currently due missed distributions shall be made to such Holder without interest.  Undeliverable distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable, and shall not be supplemented with any interest, dividends, or other accruals of any kind.  As soon as reasonably practicable, a Distribution Agent shall make all distributions that become deliverable.

 

(ii)                                  Reallocation and Reversion: All distributions under the Plan that are unclaimed for a period of six (6) months after distribution thereof shall be deemed unclaimed property under Section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and reallocated to the other recipients of New UAL Common Stock in the same proportion such recipients are otherwise entitled to under the Plan; provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a list of such unclaimed property within five (5) months of distribution.  Upon such revesting, the Claim of any Holder or its successors with respect to such property shall be discharged and forever barred notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.  The provisions of the Plan regarding undeliverable distributions shall apply with equal force to distributions made pursuant to any Indenture or Certificate (but only with respect to the initial distribution by the Servicer to Holders that are entitled to be recognized under the relevant Indenture or Certificate, and not with respect to persons to whom those recognized Holders distribute) issued by the Debtors, notwithstanding any provision in such Indenture or Certificate to the contrary and notwithstanding any otherwise applicable escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property law; provided, however, the Debtors reserve the right to request an accounting or similar report from DTC and reclaim any unclaimed distributions from DTC after one (1) year.

 

D.                                    Manner of Payment Pursuant to the Plan: Any payment in Cash to be made pursuant to the Plan shall be made at the election of the Reorganized Debtor by check or by wire transfer.

 

E.                                      Time Bar to Payment: Checks issued by the Distribution Agent (or Servicer, if applicable) on account of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not negotiated within

 

97



 

one-hundred and twenty (120) days from and after the date of issuance thereof; provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a list of such un-negotiated checks within ninety (90) days of issuance.  Requests for reissuance of any check shall be made directly to the Distribution Agent by the Holder of the relevant Allowed Claim with respect to which such check originally was issued, and shall be made on or before the later of: (i) the subsequent Periodic Distribution Date that is at least forty-five (45) days after such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim; or (ii) one-hundred and fifty (150) days after the date of issuance of such check.  After such dates, Claims for the reissuance of checks shall be discharged and forever barred, and the Reorganized Debtors shall retain all funds related thereto for distribution to the beneficiaries of the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

 

F.                                      Disputed Claims

 

1.                                       Reserve of New UAL Common Stock: On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall maintain in reserve shares of New UAL Common Stock as the New UAL Stock Reserve.  Nothing in the Plan shall require the Reorganized Debtors to establish reserves of New UAL Common Stock on account of agreements, programs, and plans set forth in ARTICLE VI.R of the Plan, which agreements, programs, and plans shall remain in place after the Effective Date and which the Debtors shall continue to honor.  The Distribution Agent shall withhold in the New UAL Stock Reserve any dividends, payments, or other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, the property initially withheld in the New UAL Stock Reserve, to the extent that such property continues to be withheld in the New UAL Stock Reserve at the time such distributions are made or such obligations arise, and such dividends, payments, or other distributions shall be held for the benefit of Holders of Disputed Claims whose Claims, if allowed, are entitled to distributions under the Plan.  As Disputed Claims and Interests are Allowed, (a) the Distribution Agent shall distribute, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, New UAL Common Stock to Holders of Allowed Unsecured Claims, and (b) the New UAL Stock Reserve shall be adjusted.  The amount of New UAL Common Stock withheld as a part of the New UAL Stock Reserve shall be equal to the number of shares the Reorganized Debtors estimate is necessary to satisfy the distributions required to be made pursuant to the Plan when each Disputed Claim is ultimately determined to be an Allowed Claim or is disallowed.  Notwithstanding anything in the applicable Holders’ Proof of Claim or otherwise to the contrary, the Holder of a Disputed Claim shall not be entitled to receive or recover a distribution under the Plan on account of a Claim in excess of the amount: (a) stated in the Holder’s Proof of Claim, if any, as of the Distribution Record Date; or (b) except with respect to a Claim on account of a municipal bond, if the Claim is contingent or unliquidated as of the Distribution Record Date, the amount that the Debtors elect to withhold on account of such claim in the New UAL Stock Reserve.  The Distribution Agent may (but is not required to) request estimation for any Disputed Claim that is contingent or unliquidated.  Nothing in the Plan or Disclosure Statement shall be deemed to entitle the Holder of a Disputed Claim to postpetition interest on such Claim.  For purposes of any post-Confirmation vote of New UAL Common Stock, the Distribution Agent or Servicer, as applicable, shall be deemed to have voted any New UAL Common Stock held in the New UAL Stock Reserve in the same proportion as all outstanding shares properly cast in such post-Confirmation vote.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Oversight Committee shall have those rights and powers set forth in ARTICLE XV.D.2 of the Plan.

 

98



 

2.                                       Tax Reporting Matters: Subject to definitive guidance from the Internal Revenue Service or the courts to the contrary (including the receipt by the Reorganized Debtors of a private letter ruling if the Reorganized Debtors so request one or the receipt of an adverse determination by the Internal Revenue Service upon audit, if not contested by the Reorganized Debtors), the Reorganized Debtors shall treat the New UAL Stock Reserve as a single trust, consisting of separate and independent shares to be established with respect to each Disputed Claim, in accordance with the trust provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. §§ 641 et seq., and, to the extent permitted by law, shall report consistently with the foregoing for federal, state, and local tax purposes.  All Holders of Unsecured Claims shall report, for federal, state, and local tax purposes, consistently with the foregoing.  In addition, the Reorganized Debtors are hereby authorized, on behalf of the Holders of Claims and Interests, to request an expedited determination of tax liability pursuant to Section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for all taxable periods of the New UAL Stock Reserve ending after the Effective Date through the termination of the New UAL Stock Reserve in accordance with the Plan.

 

3.                                       Payments and Distributions on Disputed Claims: Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, except as otherwise agreed by a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (for Claims against the Reorganized Debtors), no partial payments and no partial distributions shall be made with respect to a Disputed Claim or Interest until the resolution of all such disputes in connection with such Disputed Claim by settlement or Final Order.  On the Periodic Distribution Date that is no less than thirty (30) calendar days after the Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest becomes an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, the Holder of such Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest shall receive all payments and distributions to which such Holder is then entitled pursuant to the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Person or Entity who holds both an Allowed Claim and a Disputed Claim (or an Allowed Interest and a Disputed Interest) shall not receive the appropriate payment or distribution on the Allowed Claim (or Allowed Interest) except as otherwise agreed to by such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, unless and until all objections to the Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest have been withdrawn or resolved by settlement or Final Order and the Claims or Interests have been allowed.  In the event that there are Disputed Claims or Interests requiring adjudication and resolution, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to establish appropriate reserves for potential payment of such Claims or Interests.  Subject to ARTICLE IX.A of the Plan, all distributions made pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim shall be made together with any dividends, payments, or other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, the distributed property as if such Allowed Claim had been an Allowed Claim on the dates distributions were previously made to Holders of Allowed Claims included in the applicable Class.

 

4.                                       Compliance Matters:  In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, each Debtor, each Reorganized Debtor, and the Distribution Agent shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on it by any Governmental Unit, and all distributions pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, each Debtor, each Reorganized Debtor, and the Distribution Agent shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements including, without limitation, liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under the Plan to generate

 

99



 

sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, depositing distributions into 401(k) accounts, or establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate.  For tax purposes, distributions received with respect to Allowed Claims shall be allocated first to the principal amount of Allowed Claims, with any excess allocated to unpaid interest that accrued on such Claims. 

 

The Debtors reserve the right to allocate all distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support and other spousal awards, liens and encumbrances.

 

G.                                     Surrender of Cancelled Instruments or Securities:  On or before the Effective Date, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and except as otherwise expressly agreed by the Debtors and applicable Holders, each Holder of a Certificate shall surrender such Certificate to the Distribution Agent, or, with respect to indebtedness that is governed by an agreement and administered by a Servicer, the respective agreement with the Servicer, and such Certificate shall be cancelled solely with respect to the Debtors and such cancellation shall not alter the obligations or rights of any non-Debtor third parties, including any issuers of municipal bonds, vis-à-vis one another with respect to such instruments; provided, however, that ARTICLE IX.G of the Plan shall not apply to any Claims or Interests Reinstated pursuant to the terms of the Plan or any municipal bonds; provided further, however, that the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations and rights, if any, under such municipal bonds and any Indentures or other instruments and documents related thereto shall be treated as set forth in ARTICLE VI.W of the Plan.  No distribution of property pursuant to the Plan shall be made to or on behalf of any such Holder unless and until such Certificate is received by the Distribution Agent or the respective Servicer or the unavailability of such Certificate is reasonably established to the satisfaction of the Distribution Agent or the respective Servicer pursuant to the provisions of ARTICLE IX.I of the Plan.  Any Holder who fails to surrender or cause to be surrendered such Certificate, or fails to execute and deliver an affidavit of loss and indemnity acceptable to the Distribution Agent or the respective Servicer prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, shall (i) have its Claim or Interest discharged, (ii) be forever barred from asserting any such Claim or Interest against the relevant Reorganized Debtor or its property, (iii) be deemed to have forfeited all rights, Claims, and Interests with respect to such Certificate, and (iv) not participate in any distribution under the Plan, and all property with respect to such forfeited distribution, including any dividends or interest attributable thereto, shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.  The foregoing shall not apply to indenture trustees, other Servicers or their Holders in connection with any claims in the Retained Aircraft, Rejected Aircraft, or Public Debt Aircraft Classes, which shall, instead, abide by the procedures and deadlines established in the relevant indenture or other governing agreement and applicable non-bankruptcy law with respect to surrender of certificates, instruments, or notes, provision of indemnity to the indenture trustee due to the inability to surrender, forfeiture of distributions due to failure to surrender, and related matters; provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations and rights, if any, under such indentures and documents related thereto shall be treated as set forth in ARTICLE VI.W of the Plan.

 

H.                                    Services of Indenture Trustees, Agents and Servicers: The services, with respect to consummation of the Plan, of Servicers under the relevant agreements that govern the rights of Creditors shall be as set forth elsewhere in this Plan, and the Reorganized Debtors shall

100



 

reimburse any Servicers for reasonable and necessary services performed by it (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) as contemplated by, and in accordance with, this Plan, without the need for filing an application with, or approval by, the Bankruptcy Court.  The Debtors will not, however, pay any other fees or expenses of indentures trustees of municipal bond issuances (except with respect to Chicago Municipal Bonds, whose fees and expenses will be determined as approved in the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Agreement).

 

I.                                         Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Debt Certificates: Any Holder of Allowed Claims or Interests evidenced by a Certificate that has been lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed shall, in lieu of surrendering such Certificate, deliver to the Distribution Agent: (i) an affidavit of loss acceptable to the Distribution Agent setting forth the unavailability of the Certificate; and (ii) such additional indemnity as may reasonably be required by the Distribution Agent to hold the Distribution Agent harmless from any damages, liabilities, or costs incurred in treating such Holder as a Holder of an Allowed Claim.  Upon compliance with this procedure by a Holder of an Allowed Claim or Interest evidenced by such a lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Certificate, such Holder shall, for all purposes pursuant to the Plan, be deemed to have surrendered such Certificate.  The foregoing shall not apply to indenture trustees, other Servicers or their Holders in connection with any claims in the Retained Aircraft, Rejected Aircraft, or Public Debt Aircraft Classes), which shall, instead, abide by the procedures and deadlines established in the relevant indenture or other governing agreement and applicable non-bankruptcy law with respect to surrender of certificates, instruments, or notes, provision of indemnity to the indenture trustee due to the inability to surrender, forfeiture of distributions due to failure to surrender, and related matters; provided, however, that the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations and rights, if any, under such indentures and documents related thereto shall be treated as set forth in ARTICLE VI.V of the Plan.

 

J.                                        Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties

 

1.                                       Claims Paid by Third Parties: To the extent a Creditor (i) receives a distribution on account of a Claim and (ii) receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Creditor shall, within thirty-days of receipt thereof, repay and/or return the distribution to the applicable Reorganized Debtor, to the extent the Creditor’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the Plan exceeds the amount of the Claim as of the date of any such distribution under the Plan.  A Creditor’s failure to timely repay and/or return such distribution shall result in the Creditor owing the applicable Reorganized Debtor an additional one percent (1%) of such amount owed for each Business Day after the thirty-day grace period specified above until the amount is repaid.

 

2.                                       Claims Payable by Third Parties: The Claims Agent shall reduce in full or part a Claim on the official claims register, without a claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Creditor receives payment on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor; provided, however, that to the extent the non-debtor party making the payment is subrogated to the Creditor’s Claim, the non-debtor party shall have a thirty-day grace period to notify the Claims Agent of such subrogation rights.  To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of

 

101



 

competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, such Claim may be expunged (to the extent of any agreed upon satisfaction) on the official claims register by the Claims Agent without a claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

ARTICLE X.

1.                                       Jurisdiction and Venue:  On the Petition Date, the Debtors commenced the Chapter 11 Cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Debtors were and are qualified to be debtors under Section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code.  Venue in the Northern District of Illinois was proper as of the Petition Date and continues to be proper.  Confirmation of the Plan is a core proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2).  The Bankruptcy Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1334 and the Bankruptcy Court has exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and should be confirmed.

 

2.                                       Solicitation Procedures Order:  On [                ], 2005, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Solicitation Procedures Order, that, among other things, (i) approved the Disclosure Statement as containing adequate information within the meaning of Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code and Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3017; and (ii) approved certain procedures and documents for soliciting and tabulating votes with respect to the Plan.

 

3.                                       Publication of Solicitation Notice:  As evidenced in the Affidavit of Publication provided to the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors published the Solicitation Notice in The Wall Street Journal (National Edition), USA Today (National and Global Editions), Chicago Tribune, The International Herald Tribune, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Rocky Mountain News, Washington Post,  and the Toronto Star on [                ], 2005.

 

4.                                       Voting Report: Prior to the Confirmation Hearing, the Debtors filed a voting report with the Bankruptcy Court.  All procedures used to distribute solicitation materials to the applicable Holders of Claims and Interests and to tabulate the Ballots were fair and conducted in accordance with the Solicitation Procedures Order, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the local rules of the Bankruptcy Court, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations.  Pursuant to Sections 1124 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, at least one Impaired Class entitled to vote on the Plan has voted to accept the Plan.

 

5.                                       Judicial Notice:  The Bankruptcy Court takes judicial notice of the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases maintained by the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court and/or its duly appointed

 

102



 

agent, including, without limitation, all pleadings and other documents on file, all orders entered, and all evidence (that was not subsequently withdrawn) and arguments made, proffered or adduced at the hearings held before the Bankruptcy Court during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases (including the Confirmation Hearing).  Resolutions of objections to Confirmation explained on the record at the Confirmation Hearing are hereby incorporated by reference.  All entries on the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases shall constitute the record before the Court for purposes of the Confirmation Hearing.

 

6.                                       Transmittal and Mailing of Materials; Notice:  Due, adequate, and sufficient notice of the Disclosure Statement, Plan, Plan Supplement and Confirmation Hearing, along with all deadlines for voting on or objecting to the Plan has been given to (a) all known Holders of Claims and Interests; (b) parties that requested notice in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 2002; (c) all parties to unexpired leases and executory contracts with the Debtors, and (d) all taxing authorities listed on the Debtors’ Schedules or in the Debtors’ Claims database, in substantial compliance with Bankruptcy Rules 2002(b), 3017 and 3020(b) and the Solicitation Procedures Order, and such transmittal and service were adequate and sufficient.  Adequate and sufficient notice of the Confirmation Hearing, as continued from time to time, and other bar dates and hearings described in the Solicitation Procedures Order was given in compliance with the Bankruptcy Rules and Solicitation Procedures Order, and no other or further notice is or shall be required.

 

7.                                       Solicitation:  Votes for acceptance and rejection of the Plan were solicited in good faith and complied with Sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, Rules 3017 and 3018 of the Bankruptcy Rules, the Disclosure Statement, the Solicitation Procedures Order, all other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and all other applicable rules, laws and regulations.  The Debtors and their respective directors, officers, agents, affiliates, representatives, attorneys and advisors have solicited votes on the Plan in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the Solicitation Procedures Order and are entitled to the protections afforded by Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code and the exculpation provisions set forth in ARTICLE X of the Plan.

 

8.                                       Burden of Proof:  The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have met their burden of proving the elements of Sections 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the evidence, which is the applicable evidentiary standard in the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court also finds that the Debtors have satisfied the elements of Section 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by clear and convincing evidence.

 

9.                                       Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a):  The Plan is dated and identifies the entities submitting it, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a).

 

10.                                 Compliance with the Requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code:  The Plan complies with all requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code as follows:

 

a.                                       Section 1129(a)(1)–Compliance of the Plan with Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code: The Plan complies with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code as required by Section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, Sections 1122 and 1123.

 

103



 

(i)                                     Proper Classification:  Pursuant to Sections 1122(a) and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of the Plan designates Classes of Claims and Interests, other than Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims, which are not required to be classified.  As required by Section 1122(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, each Class of Claims and Interests contains only Claims or Interests that are substantially similar to the other Claims or Interests within that Class.
 
(ii)                                  Specification of Unimpaired Classes: Pursuant to Section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of the Plan specifies all Claims that are not Impaired.
 
(iii)                               Specification of Treatment of Impaired Classes: Pursuant to Section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of the Plan specifies the treatment of all Claims and Interests that are Impaired.
 
(iv)                              No Discrimination: Pursuant to Section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of the Plan provides the same treatment for each Claim or Interest within a particular Class, as the case may be, unless the Holder of a particular Claim has agreed to less favorable treatment with respect to such Claim.
 
(v)                                 Additional Plan Provisions:  Pursuant to Section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan provides adequate and proper means for the Plan’s implementation.  The Reorganized Debtors will have, immediately upon the Effective Date of the Plan, sufficient Cash to make all payments required to be made on the Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the Plan.  Moreover, ARTICLE VI and various other provisions of the Plan specifically provide adequate means for the Plan’s implementation, including, without limitation: (a) the continuation of the corporate existence of the Debtors and the vesting of assets in the Reorganized Debtors; (b) the amendment of the certificates of incorporation, charter, and bylaws of the Debtors as required to be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Bankruptcy Code; (c) the cancellation of the Old Preferred Stock and the Old UAL Common Stock; (d) the authorization and issuance or distribution of the New Credit Facility, the New UAL Plan Securities, and the execution of related documents; (e) the selection of the initial directors and officers of the Reorganized Debtors; and (f) the sources of Cash for distributions under the Plan.
 
(vi)                              Voting Power of Equity Securities; Selection of Officer Director or Trustee under the Plan:  The certificates of incorporation, charter, and bylaws of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors comply with Section 1123(a)(6) and Section 1123(a)(7).
 

b.                                      Section 1129(a)(2)–Compliance with Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code: The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have complied with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code as required by Section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, Sections 1125 and 1126 and Bankruptcy Rules 3017, 3018 and 3019.  In particular, the Debtors are proper debtors under Section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and proper proponents of the Plan under Section 1121(a) of

 

104



 

the Bankruptcy Code.  Furthermore, the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan was (i) pursuant to the Solicitation Procedures Order; (ii) in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations governing the adequacy of disclosure in connection with such solicitation; and (iii) solicited after disclosure to Holders of Claims or Interests of adequate information as defined in Section 1125(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.  Accordingly, the Debtors and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and Professionals have acted in “good faith” within the meaning of Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

c.                                       Section 1129(a)(3)–Proposal of Plan in Good Faith:  The Debtors have proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law.  In determining that the Plan has been proposed in good faith, the Court has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan itself, and the process leading to its formulation.  The Chapter 11 Cases were filed, and the Plan was proposed, with the legitimate purpose of allowing the Debtors to reorganize and emerge from bankruptcy with a capital structure that will allow them to satisfy their obligations with sufficient liquidity and capital resources.

 

d.                                      Section 1129(a)(4)–Bankruptcy Court Approval of Certain Payments as Reasonable:  Pursuant to Section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, the payments to be made by the Reorganized Debtors for services or for costs in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or the Plan, including the fees and expenses payable pursuant to the New Credit Facility, are approved.  In addition, fees and expenses incurred by Professionals retained by the Debtors or the Creditors’ Committee shall be payable according to the Orders approving such firms’ retention.

 

e.                                       Section 1129(a)(5)–Disclosure of Identity of Proposed Management, Compensation of Insiders and Consistency of Management Proposals with the Interests of Creditors and Public Policy:  Pursuant to Section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have disclosed the identity of the proposed directors and officers of the Reorganized Debtors following Confirmation of the Plan and the identity and compensation of insiders who will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtors.

 

f.                                         Section 1129(a)(6)–Approval of Rate Changes: The Debtors’ current businesses do not involve the establishment of rates over which any regulatory commission has or will have jurisdiction after Confirmation.  Section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is thus not applicable to these Chapter 11 Cases.

 

g.                                      Section 1129(a)(7)–Best Interests of Creditors and Interest Holders:  The liquidation analyses included in Exhibit 27 of the Plan Supplement, and the other evidence related thereto that was proffered or adduced at or prior to, or in affidavits in connection with, the Confirmation Hearing, is reasonable.  The methodology used and assumptions made in such liquidation analysis, as supplemented by the evidence proffered or adduced at or prior to, or in affidavits filed in connection with, the Confirmation Hearing, are reasonable.  With respect to each Impaired Class, each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Interest in such Class has accepted the Plan or will receive under the Plan on account of such Claim or Interest property of a value, as of the Effective

 

105



 

Date, that is not less than the amount such Holder would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

h.                                      Section 1129(a)(8)–Conclusive Presumption of Acceptance by Unimpaired Classes; Acceptance of the Plan by Each Impaired Class:  As discussed above, the Holders of DIP Facility Claims, Secured Aircraft Claims, Other Secured Claims, Other Priority Claims, and United Debtors Common Stock Interests are Unimpaired and are deemed conclusively to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, at least one Impaired Class that was entitled to vote has voted to accept the Plan. Because the Plan provides that the United Subordinated Securities Claims are impaired and because no distributions shall be made to Holders of such Claims, such Holders are deemed conclusively to have rejected the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

 

i.                                          Section 1129(a)(9)–Treatment of Claims Entitled to Priority Pursuant to Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code:  The treatment of Administrative, Priority Tax, and Other Priority Claims under Article II of the Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

j.                                          Section 1129(a)(10)–Acceptance By At Least One Impaired Class:  At least one Impaired Class has voted to accept the Plan.  Accordingly, Section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.

 

k.                                       Section 1129(a)(11)–Feasibility of the Plan: The Plan satisfies Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.  Based upon the evidence proffered or adduced at, or prior to, or in affidavits filed in connection with, the Confirmation Hearing, the Plan is feasible and Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or any successor to the Reorganized Debtors under the Plan.  Furthermore, the Reorganized Debtors will have adequate capital to meet their ongoing obligations.

 

l.                                          Section 1129(a)(12)–Payment of Bankruptcy Fees:  In accordance with Section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code, ARTICLE XV.C of the Plan provides for the payment of all fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a).  The Reorganized Debtors have adequate means to pay all such fees.

 

m.                                    Section 1129(a)(13)–Retiree Benefits: In accordance with Section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article VI.R of the Plan provides that following the Effective Date of the Plan, the payment of all retiree benefits as defined in Section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code shall continue at the levels established pursuant to subsections (e)(1) or (g) of Section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code, except as may be modified at any time prior to the Effective Date, for the duration of the periods the Debtors have obligated themselves to provide such benefits.

 

n.                                      Section 1129(b)–Confirmation of Plan Over Nonacceptance of Impaired Class: Classes 1F, 1G, 1H, 1I, and 2I will receive no distribution and retain no property

 

106



 

under the Plan and are conclusively presumed to have rejected the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan, however, satisfies the requirements of Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the deemed rejecting classes.  To determine whether a plan is “fair and equitable” with respect to a class of interests, Section 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that “the holder of any interest that is junior to the interests of such class will not receive or retain under the plan on account of such junior interest any property.”  There are no classes junior to the deemed rejecting classes that will receive any distribution under the Plan.  Therefore the Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 1129(b).

 

11.                                 Principal Purpose of the Plan Is Not Avoidance of Taxes:  The principal purpose of the Plan is not the avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77e).

 

12.                                 Releases and Discharges:  The releases and discharges of Claims and Causes of Action described in the Plan, including releases by the Debtors and by Holders of Claims, constitute good faith compromises and settlements of the matters covered thereby and are consensual.  Such compromises and settlements are made in exchange for consideration and are in the best interest of Holders of Claims, are fair, equitable, reasonable, and are integral elements of the resolution of the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the Plan.  Each of the discharge, release, indemnification and exculpation provisions set forth in the Plan (i) is within the jurisdiction of the Court under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1334(a), 1334(b) and 1334(d); (ii) is an essential means of implementing the Plan pursuant to Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; (iii) is an integral element of the transactions incorporated into the Plan; (iv) confers material benefit on, and is in the best interests of, the Debtors, their estates and their creditors; (v) is important to the overall objectives of the Plan to finally resolve all Claims among or against the parties-in-interest in the Chapter 11 Cases with respect to the Debtors; and (vi) is consistent with Sections 105, 1123, 1129 and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

 

13.                                 Preservation of Rights of Action:  Entry of a Confirmation Order shall constitute a finding that it is in the best interests of the Creditors and Interest Holders of the Debtors’ Estates that the provisions in ARTICLE VI.X of the Plan be approved. 

 

14.                                 Disclosure: Agreements and Other Documents:  The Debtors have disclosed all material facts regarding: (i) the adoption the New Certificates of Incorporation, or similar constituent documents; (ii) the selection of directors and officers for the Reorganized Debtors; (iii) the New Credit Facility; (iv) the distribution of Cash; (v) the issuance of the New UAL Plan Securities; (vi) the adoption, execution and implementation of employment, retirement and indemnification agreements, incentive compensation programs, retirement income plans, welfare benefit plans and other employee plans and related agreements; (vii) the adoption, execution and implementation of the other matters provided for under the Plan involving corporate action to be taken by or required of the Reorganized Debtors; (viii) the adoption, execution and delivery of all contracts, leases, instruments, releases, indentures and other agreements related to any of the foregoing; and (ix) the Rights Offering.

 

15.                                 Approval of New Credit Facility:  The New Credit Facility is an essential element of the Plan, and entry therein is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates and their

 

107



 

creditors.  The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to enter the New Credit Facility and have provided adequate notice thereof.

 

16.                                 Confirmation Hearing Exhibits: All of the exhibits presented at the Confirmation Hearing have been properly received into evidence and are a part of the record before the Bankruptcy Court.

 

17.                                 Objections to Confirmation of the Plan:  All objections to Confirmation filed with the Bankruptcy Court have been withdrawn, settled, overruled, or otherwise resolved.

 

18.                                 Issuance of New UAL Plan Securities:  The Debtors (and each of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers, members, managers, employees, advisors, and attorneys) have, and upon Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to have, participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the distribution of the New UAL Plan Securities under the Plan, and therefore are not, and on account of such distributions will not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or such distributions made pursuant to the Plan.

 

B.                                     Discharge of Claims and Termination of Interests: Pursuant to Section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, the distributions, rights, and treatment that are provided in the Plan shall be in complete satisfaction, discharge, and release, effective as of the Confirmation Date (but subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date), of Claims and Causes of Action of any nature whatsoever, including any interest accrued on Claims from and after the Petition Date, whether known or unknown, against, liabilities of, liens on, obligations of, rights against, and Interests in, the Debtors or any of their assets or properties, regardless of whether any property shall have been distributed or retained pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claims, rights, and Interests, including, without limitation, demands, liabilities, and Causes of Action that arose before the Confirmation Date, any liability (including withdrawal liability) to the extent such Claims relate to services performed by employees of the Debtors prior to the Confirmation Date and that arise from a termination of employment or a termination of any employee or retiree benefit program regardless of whether such termination occurred prior to or after the Confirmation Date, and all debts of the kind specified in Sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, in each case whether or not (i) a Proof of Claim or Interest based upon such debt, right, or Interest is Filed or deemed Filed pursuant to Section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a Claim or Interest based upon such debt, right, or Interest is allowed pursuant to Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) the Holder of such a Claim, right, or Interest has accepted the Plan.  The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of the discharge of all Claims against, liabilities of, and Interest in the Debtors, subject to the Effective Date occurring.

 

C.                                     Subordinated Claims: The allowance, classification, and treatment of all Allowed Claims and Interests and the respective distributions and treatments under the Plan take into account and/or conform to the relative priority and rights of the Claims and Interests in each Class in connection with any contractual, legal, and equitable subordination rights relating thereto, whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, Section 510(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  Pursuant to Section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors

 

108



 

reserve the right to re-classify any Allowed Claim or Interest in accordance with any contractual, legal, or equitable subordination relating thereto.

 

D.                                    Compromise and Settlement of Claims and Controversies: Pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019 and in consideration for the distributions and other benefits provided pursuant to the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall constitute a good faith compromise of all Claims or controversies relating to the contractual, legal, and subordination rights that a Holder of a Claim may have with respect to any Allowed Claim, or any distribution to be made on account of such an Allowed Claim.  The entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the compromise or settlement of all such Claims or controversies, and the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and Holders of Claims and is fair, equitable, and reasonable.  In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a), without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors may compromise and settle Claims against them and Causes of Action against other Entities, in their sole and absolute discretion, and after the Effective Date, such right shall pass to the Reorganized Debtors.

 

E.                                      Final Resolution of Reserved Rights:  Notwithstanding any asserted or prior reservations of rights, on the Effective Date, any and all objections to or reservations of rights to object to, the Claims and distributions provided for under the Section 1113 Restructuring Agreements, the PBGC Settlement Agreement, or the SAM Distribution, or any other distribution provided for under the Plan shall be deemed to have been overruled, and any and all parties in interest are forever barred from objecting to or challenging any such distributions; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall extinguish an objection or challenge pending as of the Effective Date.

 

F.                                      Releases by the Debtors: Pursuant to Section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or the Plan Supplement, for good and valuable consideration, including the service of the Released Parties to facilitate the expeditious reorganization of the Debtors and the implementation of the restructuring contemplated by the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, the Released Parties are deemed released and discharged by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the Estates from any and all claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, including, without limitation, any derivative claims asserted on behalf of the Debtors, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Estates, or their Affiliates would have been legally entitled to assert in their own right (whether individually or collectively) or on behalf of the Holder of any Claim or Interest or other Person or Entity, based upon or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtor, the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between any Debtor and any Released Party, the restructuring of Claims and Interests prior to or in the Chapter 11 Cases, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan and Disclosure Statement, or related agreements, instruments, or other documents, upon any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event, or upon

 

109



 

any other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date other than claims or liabilities arising out of or relating to any act or omission of a Released Party that constitutes a failure to perform the duty to act in good faith, with the care of an ordinarily prudent person and in a manner the Released Party reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation (to the extent such duty is imposed by applicable non-bankruptcy law) where such failure to perform constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

G.                                     Exculpation:  Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, no Exculpated Party shall have or incur, and each Exculpated Party is hereby released and exculpated from any Exculpated Claim, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, but in all respects such Entities shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities pursuant to the Plan.  The Debtors (and each of their respective Affiliates, agents, directors, officers, employees, advisors, and attorneys) have, and upon Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to have, participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the distributions of the securities pursuant to the Plan, and therefore are not, and on account of such distributions shall not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or such distributions made pursuant to the Plan.

 

H.                                    Releases by Holders of Claims and Interests: Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, Holders of Claims and Interests (a) voting to accept the Plan, or (b) abstaining from voting on the Plan and electing not to opt out of the release contained in this paragraph (which by definition, does not include Holders of Claims and Interests who are not entitled to vote in favor of or against the Plan and in fact do not so vote) shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever, released and discharged the Released Parties from any and all Claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative Claims asserted on behalf of a Debtor, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such Person or Entity would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively), based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Debtors’ restructuring, the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases, the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtors, the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between any Debtor, any Released Party, the restructuring of Claims and Interests prior to or in the Chapter 11 Cases, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan and Disclosure Statement, or related agreements, instruments, or other documents, upon any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event, or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date other than Claims or liabilities arising out of or relating to any act or omission of a Released Party that constitutes a failure to perform the duty to act in good faith, with the care of an ordinarily prudent person and in a manner the Released Party reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation (to the extent such duty is imposed by applicable non-bankruptcy law) where such failure to perform constitutes

 

110



 

willful misconduct or gross negligence.  The vote or election of a trustee or other agent under this paragraph acting on behalf of or at the direction of a Holder of a Claim or Interest shall bind such Holder to the same extent as if such Holder had itself voted or made such election.

 

I.                                         Chicago Municipal Bond Release: Pursuant to the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Order and the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Agreement, on and after the Effective Date, the Chicago Municipal Bond Released Parties, including but not limited to the Trustees and the Designated Holders (as those terms are defined in the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Agreement) shall be conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever, released and discharged from any and all Claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative Claims asserted on behalf of a Debtor, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, of any Person or Entity, including the Holders (as defined under the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Agreement) (whether individually or collectively), based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Chicago Municipal Bond Agreements, the Chicago Municipal Bond Settlement Agreement, that certain Amended and Restated Airport Use Agreement and Terminal Facilities Lease dated as of January 1, 1985 between the City of Chicago and United, and any other agreement relating to the Chicago Municipal Bonds other than Claims or liabilities arising out of or relating to any act or omission of a Chicago Municipal Bond Released Party that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

J.                                        Injunction: Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or for obligations issued pursuant to the Plan, all Entities who have held, hold, or may hold Claims against or Interests in the Debtors or against the Released Parties and Exculpated Parties are permanently enjoined, from and after the Effective Date, from: (i) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claim against or Interest in the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, the Released Parties, any statutory committee or members thereof, and the employees, agents, and professionals of each of the foregoing (acting in such capacity); (ii) enforcing, attaching, collecting, or recovering by any manner or means any judgment, award, decree or order against those Entities listed in subparagraph (i) above on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claim against or Interest in the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, the Released Parties, any statutory committee or members thereof, and the employees, agents, and professionals of each of the foregoing (acting in such capacity); (iii) creating, perfecting, or enforcing any encumbrance of any kind against those Entities listed in subparagraph (i) above, or the property or estates of those Entities listed in subparagraph (i) above on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claim against or Interest in the Reorganized Debtors, the Released Parties, the Exculpated Parties, any statutory committee or members thereof, and the employees, agents, and professionals of each of the foregoing (acting in such capacity); (iv) asserting any right of setoff, subrogation, or recoupment of any kind against any obligation due from those Entities listed in subparagraph (i) above or against the property or Estates of those Entities listed in subparagraph (i) above on account of or

 

111



 

in connection with or with respect to any such Claim against or Interest in the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, the Released Parties, any statutory committee or members thereof, and the employees, agents, and professionals of each of the foregoing (acting in such capacity) unless such Holder has filed a motion requesting the right to perform such setoff on or before the Confirmation Date, and notwithstanding an indication in a Proof of Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; and (v) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claim against or Interest in the Reorganized Debtors, the Released Parties, the Exculpated Parties any statutory committee or members thereof, and the employees, agents, and professionals of each of the foregoing (acting in such capacity) released or settled pursuant to the Plan.

 

K.                                    Protection Against Discriminatory Treatment: Consistent with Section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, all Entities, including, without limitation, Governmental Units, shall not discriminate against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or deny, revoke, suspend, or refuse to renew a license, permit, charter, franchise, or other similar grant to, condition such a grant to, discriminate with respect to such a grant against, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or another Entity with whom such Debtors or Reorganized Debtors has been associated, solely because any of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors is or has been a debtor under Chapter 11, has been insolvent before the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, or during the Chapter 11 Cases but before the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor is granted or denied a discharge, or has not paid a debt that is dischargeable in the Chapter 11 Cases.

 

L.                                      Setoffs: Except as otherwise expressly provided for in the Plan, each Debtor and Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code), applicable non-bankruptcy law, or as may be agreed to by the Holder of a Claim, may setoff against any Allowed Claim or Interest and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim or Interest (before any distribution is made on account of such Allowed Claim or Interest), any Claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature that such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim or Interest, to the extent such Claims, rights, or Causes of Action against such Holder have not been otherwise compromised or settled on or prior to the Effective Date (whether pursuant to the Plan or otherwise); provided, however, that neither the failure to effect such a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim or Interest pursuant to the Plan shall constitute a waiver or release by such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor may possess against such Holder.  In no event shall any Holder of Claims or Interests be entitled to setoff any Claim or Interest against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor, unless such Holder has filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the authority to perform such setoff on or before the Confirmation Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to Section 553 or otherwise; provided,

 

112



 

however, this provision shall have no effect on the setoff rights of the indenture trustees in connection with municipal bond issuances.

 

M.                                 Recoupment: In no event shall any Holder of Claims or Interests be entitled to recoup any Claim or Interest against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor, unless such Holder has performed such recoupment on or before the Confirmation Date, notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of recoupment; provided, however, this provision shall have no effect on the recoupment rights of the indenture trustees in connection with municipal bond issuances.

 

N.                                    Release of Liens: Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, including with respect to any Reinstated Secured Aircraft Claims, or in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document created pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable distributions made pursuant to ARTICLE IX of the Plan, all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests against any property of the Estates shall be deemed fully released, discharged, and all of the right, title, and interest of any Holder of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests shall revert to the applicable Debtor and its successors and assigns.

 

O.                                    Tax Escrow: Upon the Effective Date, LaSalle Bank National Association is authorized and directed to disburse all funds in the Tax Escrow Account to Reorganized United for use in Reorganized United’s general operations, and once such disbursement is made, the Tax Escrow Agreement shall terminate, all without any notice to parties-in-interest and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

 

P.                                      Document Retention: On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may maintain documents in accordance with their current document retention policy; provided, however, that the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement such policy in the ordinary course of business.

 

Q.                                    Reimbursement or Contribution: If the Court disallows a Claim for reimbursement or contribution of an entity pursuant to Section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, then to the extent that such Claim is contingent as of the time of allowance or disallowance, such Claim shall be forever disallowed notwithstanding Section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless prior to the Effective Date: (i) such Claim has been adjudicated as noncontingent; or (ii) the relevant Creditor has Filed a noncontingent Proof of Claim on account of such Claim and has requested a determination from the Court that such Claim is no longer contingent.

 

R.                                     Special Tax Provisions: Section 346 of the Bankruptcy Code shall apply to any taxes that may potentially result from, or may be related to, the events, transactions and occurrences of the Plan and these Cases.

 

S.                                      Ownership and Control:  The Consummation of the Plan shall not constitute a change of ownership or change in control, as such terms are used in any statute, regulation, contract or agreement, including, but not limited to, any employment, severance or termination, or insurance agreements, in effect on the Effective Date and to which either of the Debtors is a party or under

 

113



 

any applicable law of any applicable Governmental Unit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to selectively waive this provision of the Plan.

 

T.                                     Return of Deposits: All utilities, that received a deposit during these Cases, including, without limitation, gas, electric, telephone, and sewer, shall return such Deposits to the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, either by setoff against postpetition indebtedness or by cash refund, within 45 days following the Effective Date.

 

All deposits made during these Cases to American Express, including, without limitation, any deposits made to secure the Debtors’ obligations related to credit card arrangements, shall be returned to the Debtors and/or Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, by cash refund, within 7 days following the Effective Date.

 

U.                                    References to Plan Provisions: The failure specifically to include or to refer to any particular provision of the Plan in the Confirmation Order shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such provision, it being the intent of the Bankruptcy Court that the Plan be confirmed in its entirety.

 

V.                                     Confirmation of Less than All Subplans: In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation, the Debtors may seek confirmation of any or all Subplans, but the Debtors’ inability to confirm any Subplan or the Debtors’ election to withdraw any Subplan shall not impair the confirmation of any other Subplan or the consummation of any such Subplan.  In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not confirm the UAL Subplan, the Debtors reserve the right to incorporate a new UAL Corporation after the Effective Date as the Debtors’ holding company to replace UAL.

 

ARTICLE XI.
ALLOWANCE AND PAYMENT OF CERTAIN ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIMS

 

A.                                   DIP Facility Claim: On the Effective Date, the DIP Facility Claim shall be allowed in an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors and the DIP Lenders, and all obligations of the Debtors pursuant to the DIP Facility shall be paid in full in Cash on the Effective Date.  Upon compliance with the foregoing sentence, all Liens and security interests granted to secure such obligations shall be deemed cancelled and shall be of no further force and effect.  To the extent that the DIP Lenders or the DIP Facility Agent have filed or recorded publicly any Liens and/or security interests to secure the Debtors’ obligations pursuant to the DIP Facility, the DIP Lenders or the DIP Facility Agent, as applicable, shall perform all acts required and/or requested by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to cancel and/or extinguish such publicly filed Liens and/or security interests.

 

B.                                     Professional Claims

 

1.                                       Final Fee Applications: All final requests for payment of Claims of a Professional shall be filed no later than forty-five (45) days after the Confirmation Date.  After notice and a hearing in accordance with the procedures established by the Bankruptcy Code and prior Final

 

114



 

Orders of the Bankruptcy Court, the Allowed amounts of such Professional Claims shall be determined by the Bankruptcy Court.

 

2.                                       Payment of Interim Amounts: Except as otherwise provided for in the Plan and subject to ARTICLE XI.B.1, Professionals shall be paid pursuant to the Interim Compensation Order.

2.                                       After the Effective Date, the currently existing Bankruptcy Rule 2002 service list will be disregarded and any filings shall be served pursuant to the case management order as the same may be amended or modified.  Entities that wish to be served with all filings in this case must file an electronic appearance with the Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 Cases.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all parties must continue to comply with the case management order in the Chapter 11 Case, the Local Rules for the Northern District of Illinois, and the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.

 

3.                                       Notice of Entry of the Confirmation Order:  In accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 2002 and 3020(c), within five business days of the date of entry of this Confirmation Order, the Reorganized Debtors (or their agents) shall provide the Notice of Confirmation by United States mail, first class postage prepaid, by hand, or by overnight courier service to all parties having been served with the Solicitation Notice; provided, however, that no notice or service of any kind shall be required to be mailed or made upon any person to whom the Debtors mailed a Solicitation Notice, but received such notice returned marked “undeliverable as addressed,” “moved, left no forwarding address” or “forwarding order expired,” or similar reason, unless the Debtors have been informed in writing by such person, or are otherwise aware, of that person’s new address. To supplement the notice described in the preceding sentence, within fifteen days of the date of this Order the Debtors shall publish Notice of Confirmation once in The Wall Street Journal.  Mailing and publication of the Notice of Confirmation in the time and manner set forth in the preceding paragraph are good and sufficient under the particular circumstances and in accordance with the requirements of Bankruptcy Rules 2002 and 3020(c), and no further notice is necessary.

 

H.                                    Term of Injunctions or Stays: Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, all injunctions or stays in effect in the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to Sections 105 or 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any order of the Bankruptcy Court, and extant on the Confirmation Date (excluding any injunctions or stays contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order) shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Date.  All injunctions or stays contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall bar the taking of such other actions as are necessary to effectuate the transactions specifically contemplated by the Plan or by the Confirmation Order.

 

127



 

I.                                         Entire Agreement: Except as otherwise indicated, the Plan and the Plan Supplement (as amended from time to time) supersede all previous and contemporaneous negotiations, promises, covenants, agreements, understandings and representations on such subjects, all of which have become merged and integrated into the Plan.

 

J.                                        Governing Law: Unless a rule of law or procedure is supplied by federal law (including the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules) or unless otherwise specifically stated, the laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws, shall govern the rights, obligations, construction and implementation of the Plan, any agreements, documents, instruments, or contracts executed or entered into in connection with the Plan (except as otherwise set forth in those agreements, in which case the governing law of such agreement shall control), and corporate governance matters; provided, however, that corporate governance matters relating to Debtors not incorporated in Illinois shall be governed by the laws of the state of incorporation of the applicable Debtor.

 

K.                                    Exhibits: All exhibits and documents included in the Plan Supplement are incorporated into and are a part of the Plan as if set forth in full in the Plan.  Such exhibits and documents included in the Plan Supplement shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the Plan Supplement Filing Date.  After the exhibits and documents are filed, copies of such exhibits and documents can be obtained by contacting Poorman-Douglas at the number above or by downloading such exhibits and documents from the Debtors’ private website at http://www.pd-ual.com or the Bankruptcy Court’s website at http://www.ilnb.uscourts.gov.  To the extent any exhibit or document is inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, the non-exhibit or non-document portion of the Plan shall control.  Any amendment to such exhibits or documents shall be deemed an amendment to the Plan.  Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed an amendment to the exhibits or documents.  Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, the Debtors reserve the right to amend or modify such exhibits or documents up to the Effective Date.

 

L.                                      Nonseverability of Plan Provisions: All provisions of the Plan are integral thereto and no provision may be deleted or modified without the Debtors’ consent, in their sole and absolute discretion.

 

M.                                 Plan and Confirmation Order Mutually Dependent: The provisions of the Plan and the Confirmation Order are nonseverable and mutually dependent.

 

N.                                    Closing of Chapter 11 Cases: The Reorganized Debtors shall, promptly after the full administration of the Chapter 11 Cases, file with the Bankruptcy Court all documents required by Bankruptcy Rule 3022 and any applicable order of the Bankruptcy Court to close the Chapter 11 Cases.

 

O.                                    Section Headings: The Section headings contained in the Plan are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of the Plan.

 

P.                                      Waiver or Estoppel: Each Holder of a Claim or an Interest shall be deemed to have waived any right to assert any argument, including, without limitation, the right to argue that its Claim or Interest should be Allowed in a certain amount, in a certain priority,

secured or not subordinated by virtue of an agreement made with the Debtors and/or their counsel, the Creditors’ Committee and/or its counsel, or any other Person, if such agreement was not disclosed in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or papers filed with the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Confirmation Date.

 

Q.                                    Conflicts: Except as set forth in the Plan, to the extent that any provision of the Disclosure Statement, the Plan Supplement, or any other order referenced in the Plan (or any exhibits, schedules, appendices, supplements, or amendments to any of the foregoing), conflict with or are in any way inconsistent with any provision of the Plan, the Plan shall govern and control; provided, however, that to the extent that any provision of the Disclosure Statement, the Plan Supplement, any other order referenced in the Plan, or the Plan (or any exhibits, schedules, appendices, supplements, or amendments to any of the foregoing), conflict with or are in any way inconsistent with any provision of the Confirmation Order, the Confirmation Order shall govern and control.
