Provided that there is a Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid other than the Initial Interest Acquisition Bid, the Interest Acquisition Auction will take place just prior to the conclusion of the Confirmation Hearing at which time the Court will recess the Confirmation Hearing so that the Interest Acquisition Auction can be held.  In order for anyone, other than Dalcor’s Initial Interest Acquisition Bid, to be a participant in the Interest Acquisition Auction they must meet the requirements set forth in Plan section 1.38 and Plan Exhibit 1.38 four (4) business days prior to the Confirmation Hearing.   A Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid may only be conditioned upon the requirement that the Plan be confirmed and that a Confirmation Order has been entered.  If no other party in interest submits a Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid and the Plan is confirmed, then the Initial Interest Acquisition Bid shall prevail and shall proceed, in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the Interest Acquisition Closing.  If, however, one or more party in interest properly submits a Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid, then the Interest Acquisition Auction will be held at 9:00 a.m. on the business day prior to the Confirmation Hearing at the Debtor’s counsel’s office as set forth on the first page of the Plan.

The Interest Acquisition Auction will be conducted by Debtor’s counsel.  The Interest Acquisition Auction will begin with the last party in interest who submitted a Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid (assuming that there are a minimum of two (2) parties in interest) having the first opportunity to bid more than the Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid in $100,000 intervals up to $6,000,000 and then at $50,000 intervals thereafter.  The time of a bid submission shall be governed by the time of the delivery of the Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid requirements in Plan Section 1.38 and Plan Exhibit 1.38.   If the last party in interest to submit a Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid fails to make a higher bid, then that party is out of the auction and may not acquire the Interests in the Reorganized Debtor.  The next to the last party in interest then must increase its bid or it is out of the auction.  This process will proceed until the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid is determined.

5.02    Interest Acquisition Closing.  The Interest Acquisition Closing shall occur on the Plan Closing Date.  If the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid other than the Initial Interest Acquisition Bid fails to close on the Plan Closing Date, then the Initial Interest Acquisition Bid shall close as the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid at it the $4,000,000 bid amount.  A Winning Interest Acquisition Bid which does not close will be liable for liquidated damages to the Debtor in the amount of $200,000.  The difference between the Minimum Interest Acquisition Bid and the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid which occurs at the Interest Acquisition Auction must be funded to Debtor’s counsel’s trust account two (2) business days prior to the Plan Closing Date.  Any other party who has submitted a deposit but is not the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid that closes, shall have their tendered funds, with accrued interest, less any applicable liquidated damages, returned by wire within two (2) business days.

5.03    Rules and Requirements as to the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid, which is not the Initial Interest Acquisition Bid.

5.05    Issuance of New ESPRE Common Stock.  On the Plan Closing Date the Debtor shall issue, in the form of certificated securities, New ESPRE Common Stock to the holder of the Winning Interest Acquisition Bid (See Plan Section 9.08 to see the number of shares of New Espre Common Stock that will be issued).   The Plan Closing Date causes the cancellation of all pre-petition equity securities, regardless of class, and whether such equity securities are in the form or an option or other mechanism which allows for or calls for the issuance of common stock of the Debtor.

5.06    Retention of Claims and Causes of Action and Transfer of Authority to Prosecute Specific Claims and Causes of Action to Litigation Agent.  All causes of action, rights, claims and demands against any third parties, creditors, investors, individuals, insiders or other entities which the Debtor or the Debtor in Possession owns or has an interest in or can assert in any fashion, in any forum, since their formation, or which could be asserted by any  Trustee under the Bankruptcy Code, whether pre-petition or post-petition, directly or in a derivative fashion, including, but not limited to, actions under §§ 542 through 553 of the Bankruptcy Code and § 510 of the Bankruptcy Code to recover assets for the Debtor’s estate and to subordinate claims, as well as all proceeds of and recoveries on Debtor’s  Actions, are retained by the Debtor post confirmation.  The Debtor shall be, post confirmation, a representative of the estate pursuant to Section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.  Those specific claims or causes of action separately set forth and identified in Plan Exhibit 5.06 shall be the Retained Claims and Causes of Action - Litigation Agent and are for the benefit of the holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 4-6 and 8 in accordance with the requirements set forth in Plan Sections 3.06-3.08 and 3.10.  All other claims and causes of action not described therein shall be Retained Claims and Causes of Action and shall be retained for the benefit of the Debtor post confirmation.

5.07    Deadline for Objections to Claims and Provisions for Disputed Claims.  The Debtor shall, by the Claims Objection Bar Date, file any and all objections to all Claims.  For purposes of calculating Pro Rata or any other distributions to be made under this Plan to holders of Claims against the Debtor in any Class, the amount of the total Allowed Claims in such Class shall be computed as if all Disputed Claims still outstanding on the date of any such distribution were allowed in the full amount thereof.  The funds held on account of those Disputed Claims shall be disbursed in accordance with the final and non-appealable order which allows or disallows that Claim.  The Debtor may settle any objection to any claim without any requirement to utilize Bankruptcy Rule 9019 or to notice any other party in interest.  The Debtor shall be the only party entitled to object to the allowance of any Claim.

5.08    Disputed, Unliquidated and Contingent Claims.  Notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Plan, disputed, unliquidated and contingent Claims or Claims objected on or prior to the Claims Objection Bar Date, shall be paid only upon allowance in accordance with the provisions of Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or upon the applicable appeal being final and non appealable.
 
 
SECOND AMENDED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION, AS MODIFIED - Page 15 of 34
 
 

 

5.09    Specific Claims Resolution. The Debtor asserts that the following resolutions are in the best interest of this Debtor’s estate and in the best interest of its creditors:

Acron Rejection Claim Agreement.  Acron filed a proof of claim in the amount of $810,171.20 (POC #8).  The Debtor objected to POC #8 on April 22, 2009 (Docket No. 96) asserting that: i) § 502(b)(6) limited Acron’s claim to $228,622.60 which was a net secured claim of $21,642 and an unsecured claim of $206,979.00.  The Debtor also asserted that Acron had duties to mitigate those damages on account of its stated position that it had a replacement tenant.  The Acron Rejection Claim Resolution Agreement provides, that:  (a) the Debtor shall vacate the premises on or before April 30, 2009and shall leave the premises in move-in condition and will not remove any items or furniture that are owned by Acron; (b) Acron has an allowed secured claim equal to the amount of the security deposit it holds, which Acron may set off on the Confirmation Date; (c) Acron’s POC #8, beyond the security deposit amount, is withdrawn and will receive no distribution under the Plan; (d) the Debtor waives any claim it has against Acron; (e) Acron acknowledges that its claims, other than its secured portion, are discharged.  This agreement is highly beneficial.  The Debtor had intended to leave the Acron premises at the end of May, 2009.  By moving out one month earlier (to a new month-to-month space with adequate bandwidth capacity) the Debtor has assured reduction of over $200,000 of unsecured claims for the benefit of Class 4 Allowed General Unsecured Creditors.  The Debtor asserts that this resolution meets all applicable compromise standards in the 5th Circuit.

VSP Claim.  The VSP claim is a $1,500,000 claim (“POC #5) filed on March 19, 2009.  The Debtor objected to the VSP claim and sought subordination of the VSP Claim under §510(b) by means of filing an adversary proceeding at Docket No. 84 (Adversary Proceeding No. 09-3092) on April 7, 2009.  The Debtor objected to the claim being allowed as an unsecured claim because the Debtor asserts that the stock which was issued according to the terms of the last modification agreement regarding the long and somewhat tortured debtor-creditor relationship between the Debtor and VSP, et al.  The Debtor asserts that the damage claim of $1,500,000 relates to and is a claim for rescission with regard to a purchase or sale of a security of the Debtor.  VSP asserts that the transaction which generated the exchange was rife with fraud on the part of the Debtor, by and through its former management, exhibits a failure of consideration and that the nature of this transaction does not fit within the classical rationale for keeping claims of shareholders for stock purchased with the sole intent of acquiring stock from moving into creditor status.  VSP asserts that as a creditor initially, it can look back to the nature of its original claim, a $1,500,000 debt secured by a security interest, later released, does not meet the §510(b) requirements.

The Debtor agrees to resolve this dispute as follows:  (a) allow a $250,000 Class 4 Claim to VSP; (b) allow a $350,000 subordinated unsecured claim in Class 5 which shares pro-rata with Dalcor’s subordinated claim; (c) creates Class 8 and allows a $900,000 unsecured claim subordinated to all claims, but prior to shareholders.
 
 
SECOND AMENDED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION, AS MODIFIED - Page 16 of 34
 
 

 

The Debtor asserts that the cost of litigating this matter would deprive unsecured creditors of funds from the sale for attorneys fees accrued prior the Plan Closing Date to dispute the claim; resolves a prospective $1,500,000 claim allowance at the general unsecured claim level by reducing it by $1,250,000 such that none of the $1,250,000 claim is paid out unless Class 4 is paid in full.  The amount of the VSP Claim is not in dispute, but its priority is in dispute.  This resolution when coupled with all of the other resolutions set forth in this Plan (MDS – from $4,350,000 to $100,000; ALL from $2,500,000 to $100,000; Acron from $206,000 to zero; and VSP from $1,500,000 to $250,000 as to Class 4, are all in the best interest of this estate and its creditors and meets the applicable requirements to compromise claims per applicable 5th Circuit authority.

ARTICLE VI.

Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

6.01    Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.  As of the Plan Closing Date, the following pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases are assumed by the Debtor in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent that they are in fact executory contracts.  If they are not in fact executory, then the listing herein shall not cause them to have such status.  The Debtor asserts that the amount set forth next to each specific executory contract or unexpired lease, where applicable, is the amount which the counter party is due to be paid as the cure obligations under such executory contract or unexpired lease and that the sum of all such amounts is the Assumption Cure Costs for same.  If any party listed below disagrees with the amount listed for their respective cure requirements, then such counter party must file an objection to the Plan in accordance with the Order Approving the Disclosure Statement, setting the Plan Confirmation Hearing Date and Plan Objection and Ballot Deadlines:

6.03    Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.  All proofs of claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired leases, unless a prior order specifically directs otherwise, or is otherwise addressed in the Plan, must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court within 21 days of the Effective Date (the “Rejection Claims Bar Date”) and will be required to, if applicable state:  (a) its election under 365(n)(1); and (b) its ability to pay any past due royalties under 365(n)(2)(B) if such is the counter party’s election.  Any Claims arising from rejection an executory contract or unexpired leases which are not filed on or prior to the Rejection Claims Bar Date will be forever barred from participating as a Class 4 General Unsecured Claim.   The Debtor shall object to any timely filed proof of claim on or prior to the Claims Objection Bar Date.

6.04    Rights of Licensees on Account of Rejection of License where Debtor is Licensor.  Notwithstanding any clause or portion of any executory contract where in the Debtor is the licensor, the counter party licensee has only those rights set forth in the Section 365(n) of the Code, which is set forth hereinafter, unless such counter party has had its dispute resolved pursuant to applicable terms of this Plan in Section 6.05.  The Debtor reserves the right to contest any party’s assertion regarding what Section 365(n) provides and whether what is sought by the counter party is with in the scope of the protections afforded by that section:

(n)(1) If the trustee rejects an executory contract under which the debtor is a licensor of a right to intellectual property, the licensee under such contract may elect–

(A) to treat such contract as terminated by such rejection if such rejection by the trustee amounts to such a breach as would entitle the licensee to treat such contract as terminated by virtue of its own terms, applicable nonbankruptcy law, or an agreement made by the licensee with another entity; or

(B) to retain its rights (including a right to enforce any exclusivity provision of such contract, but excluding any other right under applicable nonbankruptcy law to specific performance of such contract) under such contract and under any agreement supplementary to such contract, to such intellectual property (including any embodiment of such intellectual property to the extent protected by applicable nonbankruptcy law), as such rights existed immediately before the case commenced, for–
 
 
SECOND AMENDED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION, AS MODIFIED - Page 20 of 34
 
 

 
 
(i) the duration of such contract; and

(ii) any period for which such contract may be extended by the licensee as of right under applicable nonbankruptcy law.

(2) If the licensee elects to retain its rights, as described in paragraph (1)(B) of this subsection, under such contract

(A) the trustee shall allow the licensee to exercise such rights;

(B) the licensee shall make all royalty payments due under such contract for the duration of such contract and for any period described in paragraph (1)(B) of this subsection for which the licensee extends such contract; and

 (C) the licensee shall be deemed to waive–

(i) any right of setoff it may have with respect to such contract under this title or applicable nonbankruptcy law; and

(ii) any claim allowable under section 503(b) of this title arising from the performance of such contract.

 3) If the licensee elects to retain its rights, as described in paragraph (1)(B) of this subsection, then on the written request of the licensee the trustee shall–

(A) to the extent provided in such contract, or any agreement supplementary to such contract, provide to the licensee any intellectual property (including such embodiment) held by the trustee; and

(B) not interfere with the rights of the licensee as provided in such contract, or any agreement supplementary to such contract, to such intellectual property (including such embodiment) including any right to obtain such intellectual property (or such embodiment) from another entity.

 4) Unless and until the trustee rejects such contract, on the written request of the licensee the trustee shall–

(A) to the extent provided in such contract or any agreement supplementary to such contract
 
 
SECOND AMENDED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION, AS MODIFIED - Page 21 of 34
 
 

 

(i) perform such contract; or

(ii) provide to the licensee such intellectual property (including any embodiment of such intellectual property to the extent protected by applicable nonbankruptcy law) held by the trustee; and

(B) not interfere with the rights of the licensee as provided in such contract, or any agreement supplementary to such contract, to such intellectual property (including such embodiment), including any right to obtain such intellectual property (or such embodiment) from another entity.

Any counter party to a rejected license detailed in Section 6.02 of the Plan, which is not subject to a separate motion regarding these issues, must make its 365(n)(1) election on or before the Rejection Claims Bar Date.  Such election shall be set forth in a Proof of Claim setting forth termination damages if the counter party elections § 365(n)(1)(A) or by filing a notice with the Court and counsel for the Debtor if the counter party elects § 365(n)(1)(B).  Any counter party who elects rights under § 365(n)(1)(B) must pay the Debtor any past due license fees and royalties;  must fund any past due license or royalties due as of the Plan Closing Date as set forth in the chart above.  Failure to fund same will entitle the Debtor to object to the counter party’s election and request it be voided for failure to comply with the requirements of § 365(n)(1)(B).

Section 6.05 Resolution of Section 365(n) Dispute and Unsecured Claims which have been or could be asserted by Medial Distribution Solutions (“MDS”)and All Link Live (“ALL”).   MDS has heretofore filed a proof of claim in the amount of $4,350,000.  ALL will timely file its rejection proof of claim in order that it may be able to vote, based upon an absolute termination (365(n)(1)(A) of: a) the Intellectual Property License Agreement (“IPL Agreement”) between the Debtor and Media Distribution Solutions, LLC (“MDS”), dated April 14, 2006, as amended; and b) the Debtor’s obligations under Software and Technology Sublicense Agreement between the Debtor, MDS and All Link Live, Inc. (“ALL”) dated November 30, 2007 (“STSA Agreement”), as applicable.  Additionally MDS maintains that it has terminated the IPL agreement pre -petition and as such is entitled to specific relief not affected by Section 365(n) and is entitled to the return of 1,000,000 shares of MDS’s stock for $1.00.  The Debtor vehemently disputes both the amount of the claims asserted by MDS and ALL and MDS’s assertion that there was a pre-petition termination of the IPL Agreement or that there is any viable right to acquire the MDS stock for $1.00.  After detailed and intense negotiations brought on by the Debtor’s Expedited Motion to Reject Executory Contract with Media Distribution Solutions, LLC and to Set §365(n)(1) Election and Proof of Claim Bar Date (Docket No. 52), the Debtor, MDS and ALL have come to the following agreement to resolve the §365(n)(1) election issues by providing for the following  resolutions with regard to each parties claims against the other.  
 
The IPL Agreement will be rejected, but will receive a modified 365(n)(1)(B) election (collectively hereinafter “Modified License Lite”).  Capitalized terms contained in this Section 6.05(a), which are not other defined in Section 6.05 or in the Plan, shall have the same meaning attributed to them in the IPL Agreement:

The Rejection License Technology does not include: (i) any Source Code, which collectively consists of:  (A) the series of un-compiled instructions or any part thereof in human readable form, test programs and program specifications, compiler and assembler descriptions comprising a portion of the Rejection Licensed Technology; and (B) descriptions and locations of excluded technology required to use or support the Rejection Licensed Technology; (ii) any access to the Debtor’s network(s) for any applications.

Section 6.05 a)–e) modify MDS’s rights under 365(n)(1)(B), (n)(2)(A) and (n)(3) and limits any rights of MDS to the contrary per the IPL Agreement.  Except as expressly provided herein, ALL and Vizeo are granted no rights whatsoever, herein, as to the Debtor.  The STSA Agreement shall remain as a rejected executory contract under the Debtor’s Plan.
 
f)
MDS shall be relieved of any obligations under 365(n)(2)(B) and (C), on the Plan Closing Date, on account of compliance by MDS with the following provisions of the Modified 365 Election:

 
i)
MDS consents in writing to the amendment of its currently filed proof of claim in the amount of $4,350,000 to an Allowed Claim for $100,000 (the “Modified MDS Claim”) by filing the Modified MDS Claim on or before the Plan Closing Date; and

 
ii)
MDS consents in writing to the filing of a motion to change its vote with regard to its currently filed proof of claim from one against the Plan to one in favor of the Debtor’s Plan as amended or modified hereinafter and will consent in writing to the modifications to the Plan.

Any other portion of Section 365(n)(1)(B) through (n)(3)(B) not modified herein shall remain in effect as set forth therein and be applied as construed through applicable case law, including but not limited to the Debtor being relieved of any obligation, on account of the IPL Agreement, to supplement, upgrade, update or otherwise perform any function relative to same not set forth above or in the unaffected portions of Section 365 above referenced.  The Debtor further has no obligations to MDS under Section 365(n)(4).

g)
The Debtor shall assign and transfer all right, title, and interest in and to the 1,000,000 shares of MDS stock it owns (the “Debtor’s MDS Shares”) to MDS, free and clear of all liens, claims, charges, voting agreements, security interests, proxy rights, options or other legal or equitable encumbrances, on the Plan Closing Date on account of MDS lowering its proof of claim from $4,350,000 to $100,000.

h)
ALL has filed it’s a proof of claim in the amount of $500,000,000 as to indemnification or other damages it alleges it has suffered under the STSA Agreement.  ALL will amend its proof of claim, on or before April 23, 2009 to $2,500,000 (the “Revised ALL P of C”).  ALL has agreed with MDS to accept the rights to the Rejection License Technology which MDS is granted herein on a limited basis then ALL shall thereafter:

 
i)
consent in writing to the amendment of the Revised ALL P of C, to an Allowed Claim for $100,000 (the “Modified ALL Claim”) by filing the Modified ALL Claim on or before the Plan Closing Date; and
 
 
SECOND AMENDED PLAN OF REORGANIZATION, AS MODIFIED - Page 26 of 34
 
 

 
 
 
ii)
consent in writing to the filing of a motion to change its vote with regard to the Revised ALL P of C from one against the Plan to one in favor of the Debtor’s Plan as amended or modified hereinafter and will consent in writing to the modifications to the Plan;

The Debtor asserts that this resolution is in the best interests of this Debtor’s estate and in the best interests of it creditors.  Proceeding to litigate the §365 (n) issue would be lengthy and complicated and will likely result in extremely large claims in this case which will significantly dilute the distributions to be made to unsecured creditors in this case and make even more remote, the prospect that any recovery on any causes of action retained by the Litigation Agent will ever be able to be paid to the holders of the Debtor’s pre-petition equity securities.  Litigating the matter will result in significant in crease in administrative claims further increasing the reduction of the dividend to unsecured creditors and further distance any prospect of distribution to equity securities.  The sale of the MDS stock in partial exchange for the elimination of $4,250,000 of claims in this case, even, if overstated, is more a potential concern of Dalcor as the secured creditor with the right to such stock and whatever value it may have.  By Dalcor also consenting to this treatment, the benefit analysis becomes easier to meet.  The elimination of the $500,000,000 proof of claim down to a more probable $2,500,000 claim and the subsequent significant reduction of the Revised ALL P of C on account of the Modified ALL Claim, based upon ALL’s consent to the revised sub-license, will also serve the same purpose for the same reasons.  The Debtor asserts that this settlement is an appropriate exercise of its rights to compromise controversies under Rule 9019 and that the Confirmation of the Plan will serve to approve the resolutions set forth above.

ARTICLE VIII.

Voting

7.01    Impaired Classes to Vote.  Each impaired class of Claims will be entitle to vote separately to accept or reject Plan depending upon the statement of impairment set forth at the end of the treatment set forth in the Plan.  A holder of a Disputed Claim that has not been temporarily allowed for purposes of voting on the Plan  may vote the Disputed Claim in a amount equal to the portion, if any, of the Claim shown as fixed, liquidated and undisputed in the Debtor’s Schedules only after having sought to have their Claim allowed for voting purposes pursuant to the Rules.
