IT IS HEREBY FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:

A.Findings of Fact; Conclusions of Law. The determinations, findings, judgments, decrees, orders and conclusions set forth in this order (this “Combined Order”) and in the record of the Combined Hearing constitute this Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Rule 52 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, made applicable to this proceeding pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 7052 and 9014. To the extent any of the following findings of fact constitute a conclusion of law, it is adopted as such. To the extent any of the following conclusions of law constitute a finding of fact, it is adopted as such.

B.Eligibility for Relief; Proper Plan Proponents. The Debtors were and are eligible for relief under Section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Debtors were and are proper Plan proponents under Section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

C.Chapter 11 Cases. On the Petition Date, the Debtors commenced the Chapter 11 Cases. By order of this Court, the Chapter 11 Cases have been consolidated for procedural purposes only and are being jointly administered pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015 [Docket No. 33]. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors have operated their businesses and managed their properties as Debtors in possession pursuant to Sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No official statutory committee, trustee or examiner has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases.

D.Exclusive Jurisdiction; Venue; Core Proceeding (28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b)(2) and 1334(a)). This Court has jurisdiction over this matter and the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1334. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409 and continues to be proper during the Chapter 11 Cases. Approval of the Disclosure Statement and Confirmation of the Plan are core proceedings under 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2). This Court has exclusive jurisdiction to enter a Final Order determining that the Disclosure Statement and the Plan comply with all of

the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and should be approved and confirmed, respectively.

E.Judicial Notice. The Court takes judicial notice of the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases maintained by the clerk of the Court, including, without limitation, all pleadings and other documents Filed with the Court and orders entered thereon. The Court also takes judicial notice of all hearing transcripts, evidence proffered or adduced and all arguments made at the hearings held before the Court during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases.

F.Adequacy of Disclosure Statement. The Disclosure Statement (i) contains sufficient information of a kind necessary to satisfy the disclosure requirements of all applicable non-bankruptcy rules, laws, and regulations, including the Securities Act, (ii) contains “adequate information” (as such term is defined in Section 1125(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and used in Section 1126(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan, and the transactions contemplated therein, and (iii) is hereby approved in all respects.

G.Voting Report. Before the Combined Hearing, the Debtors Filed with the Court the Voting Report. All procedures used to tabulate the Ballots were fair and conducted in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Solicitation Procedures Order, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations. As evidenced by the Voting Report:

Class 3 (First Lien Notes Claims) voted as follows: 138 Claims in the aggregate amount of $644,677,054.81 voted to accept the Plan, and 3 Claims in the aggregate amount of $133,945.19 voted to reject the Plan. Accordingly, 97.87% of the voting Class 3 creditors voted to accept the Plan, and those creditors in the aggregate held 99.98% of the total dollar amount of the Claims held by such voting Class 3 creditors. Therefore, Class 3 has met the requisite thresholds contained in, and accepted, the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ii.

Class 4 (Second Lien Notes Claims) voted as follows: 82 Claims in the aggregate amount of $219,560,031.00 voted to accept the Plan, and 0

Claims in the aggregate amount of $0 voted to reject the Plan. Accordingly, 100% of the voting Class 4 creditors voted to accept the Plan, and those creditors, in the aggregate, held 100% of the total dollar amount of the Claims held by such voting Class 4 creditors. Therefore, Class 4 has met the requisite thresholds contained in, and accepted, the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

H.Adequate Assurance. The Debtors have cured, or provided adequate assurance that the Reorganized Debtors will cure, defaults (if any) under or relating to each of the contracts and leases that are being assumed by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan. The Debtors also have provided adequate assurance of the Reorganized Debtors’ future performance under such contracts and leases.

I.Valuation. The Debtors’ Valuation Analysis included as Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement and the estimated enterprise value, as described therein, is reasonable, proposed in good faith, and supported by the Confirmation Declarations and the evidence presented at or prior to the Combined Hearing. All parties in interest have been given the opportunity to challenge the Valuation Analysis. The Valuation Analysis (i) is reasonable, persuasive, and credible as of the date such analysis was prepared, presented, or proffered, and (ii) uses reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions.

J.Notice of Combined Hearing. As evidenced by the Affidavits of Services, the Debtors have given proper and sufficient notice of the Combined Hearing as required by Bankruptcy Rule 3017(d). Due, timely, adequate, and sufficient notice of the Combined Hearing, the Disclosure Statement, the Plan, the Plan Supplement, the opportunity of the applicable parties to opt out of the Third-Party Release, and other dates and deadlines described in the Solicitation Procedures Order, together with all deadlines for voting to accept or reject the Plan as well as objecting to the Disclosure Statement and the Plan, has been given to all applicable Holders of

Claims and Interests substantially in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Solicitation Procedures Order and in substantial compliance with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations. Such transmittal and service were adequate and sufficient under the circumstances, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. All parties in interest had the opportunity to appear and be heard at the Combined Hearing, and no other or further notice is required. The Debtors published the Combined Notice in the national edition of USA Today and the Houston Chronicle, in substantial compliance with the Solicitation Procedures Order and Bankruptcy Rule 2002(l), as evidenced by the Affidavit of Publication.

K.Solicitation. As described in the Voting Report, the solicitation of votes on the Plan complies with the Solicitation Procedures (as defined in the Solicitation Procedures Order), was appropriate and satisfactory based upon the circumstances of the Chapter 11 Cases, and was in compliance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and any other applicable bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy rules, laws, and regulations.

L.Burden of Proof. The Debtors, as the proponents of the Plan, have met their burden of proving the satisfaction of the elements of Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the evidence. Further, each witness who testified or proffered testimony on behalf of the Debtors at or in connection with the Combined Hearing was credible, reliable and qualified to testify as to the topics addressed in his or her testimony or declaration.

M.Plan Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(1)). The Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, Sections 1122 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 3016.

Proper Classification (11 U.S.C. §§ 1122 & 1123(a)(1)). In addition to Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims, which need not be classified, the Plan designates nine Classes of Claims and Interests, based on the differences in the legal nature or priority of such Claims and Interests. The Claims and Interests placed in each Class are substantially similar to the other Claims or Interests, as the case may be, in each such Class. Valid business, factual and legal reasons exist for separately classifying the various Classes of Claims and Interests created under the Plan, and such Classes are proper and the creation of such Classes does not unfairly discriminate between or among Holders of Claims or Interests. Thus, the Plan satisfies Sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ii.

Specify Unimpaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(2)). The Plan specifies that Other Secured Claims (Class 1), Other Priority Claims (Class 2), and Intercompany Interests (Class 8) are Unimpaired under the Plan, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

iii.

Specify Treatment of Impaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(3)). The Plan designates First Lien Notes Claims (Class 3), Second Lien Notes Claims (Class 4), General Unsecured Claims (Class 5), Section 510(b) Claims (Class 6), Intercompany Claims (Class 7), and Existing Lux Beneficial Interests (Class 9) as Impaired and specifies the treatment of the Claims and the Interests in those Classes, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.

iv.

No Discrimination Within Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(4)). The Plan provides for the same treatment by the Debtors for each Claim or Interest in each respective Class unless the Holder of a particular Claim or Interest has, to the extent applicable, agreed to a less favorable treatment of such Claim or Interest, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Implementation of Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(5)). The Plan, together with and including the various documents and agreements set forth in the Plan Supplement, provide adequate and proper means for implementation of the Plan, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, regarding (a) the general settlement of Claims and Interests; (b) authorization for the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors to take all actions necessary to effectuate the Plan, including those actions necessary to effect the Restructuring Transactions; (c) the Definitive Documents necessary to implement or to be entered into in connection with the Plan; (d) the adoption, authorization, and execution of the New Organizational Documents; (e) the funding and sources of consideration for Plan distributions; (f) the reservation of the New PDC Equity for future distribution; (g) the vesting of assets in the Reorganized Debtors; (h) except as otherwise provided in the Plan and this Combined Order, the cancellation of existing Securities and agreements; (i) the authorization, approval, and execution of the Exit Facility, the New PDC Equity, and the New 2L Warrants, and entry into any agreements related to the same as set forth in the Plan or the Plan Supplement; (j)

the authorization, approval, and execution of corporate actions under the Plan pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Plan, and this Combined Order; (k) the creation of the Professional Fee Escrow Account; (l) the appointment of the initial directors of the board of directors or other governing body of Reorganized PDC (the “New Board”); (m) the granting of Liens and security interests to secure the Exit Facility; and (n) the effectuation and implementation of documents and transactions necessary to effect the Restructuring Transactions.

vi.

Non-Voting Equity Securities (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(6)). The Plan provides that the New Organizational Documents shall prohibit the issuance of non-voting equity Securities to the extent required by Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.

vii.

Selection of Directors and Officers (11 U.S.C. §§ 1123(a)(7) and 1129(a)(5)). The initial directors of the New Board were identified by the Debtors in the Plan Supplement, and shall be deemed appointed on the Effective Date in accordance with the Plan and the New Operating Agreement (which shall take the form of a new limited liability company agreement of Reorganized PDC). In addition, the Debtors disclosed, prior to the Combined Hearing, the identity and affiliations of those Persons proposed to serve on the initial board of directors or as an officer of Reorganized PDC, and—to the extent such Person is an insider other than by virtue of being a director, manager or an officer—the nature of any compensation for such Person. The directors, managers, and officers of the Reorganized Debtors were selected in a manner consistent with the interests of creditors and with public policy, thereby satisfying Section 1123(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

viii.

Additional Plan Provisions (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)). The Plan contains certain provisions that may be construed as permissive, but are not required for Confirmation under the Bankruptcy Code. These provisions comply with Section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, are appropriate, in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates and are not inconsistent with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, provisions for (a) the assumption or rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases, (b) the Reorganized Debtors’ retention of certain retained Causes of Action that the Debtors had or had power to assert immediately prior to the Effective Date, whether directly or derivatively, and (c) releases and exculpation of the Released Parties and the Exculpated Parties, as applicable. In accordance with Section 1123(b)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, and in consideration for the classification, distributions, releases, and other benefits provided under the Plan, upon the Effective Date, the provisions of the Plan shall constitute a good-faith compromise and settlement of all Claims, Interests, Causes of Action, and controversies released, settled, compromised, discharged, satisfied, or otherwise resolved pursuant to the Plan. In addition, the compromises and settlements embodied in the Plan and the negotiated support in the Restructuring Support Agreement preserve value by enabling the Debtors to avoid extended, value-

eroding litigation that could delay the Debtors’ emergence from Chapter 11 and the parties to the Restructuring Support Agreement have provided value to the Debtors and their Estates, and the compromises and settlements in the Plan are fair, equitable, reasonable, and in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates.

ix.

Identification of Plan and Filing of Disclosure Statement (Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a) and (b)). The Plan is dated and identifies the Entities submitting it, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a). The filing of the Disclosure Statement with the Clerk of this Court satisfied Bankruptcy Rule 3016(b).

N.The Debtors’ Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(2)). The Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. Specifically:

The Debtors are proper debtors under Section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and proper proponents of the Plan under Section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ii.

The Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, Sections 1125 and 1126, except as otherwise provided or permitted by orders of this Court.

iii.

The Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and the Solicitation Procedures Order in transmitting the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Ballots and related documents and notices and in soliciting and tabulating votes on the Plan.

O.Plan Proposed in Good Faith (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(3)). The Debtors have proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. In determining that the Plan has been proposed in good faith, this Court has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan itself (including the Plan Supplement) and the formulation and Confirmation of the Plan. The good faith of each of the Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, and the Backstop Parties—and each of their respective current and former affiliates and, with respect to each Entity and their current and former affiliates, their current and former directors, managers, officers, control Persons, equity holders (regardless of whether such Interests are held directly or indirectly),

affiliated investment funds or investment vehicles, participants, managed accounts or funds, fund advisors, predecessors, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, principals, members, employees, agents, advisory board members, financial advisors, partners, attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, consultants, representatives, investment managers, and other professionals (collectively, the “Related Persons”)—is evident from the facts and records of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Disclosure Statement, and the record of the Combined Hearing and other proceedings held in the Chapter 11 Cases. The Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, and the Backstop Parties (and each of their respective Related Persons) have negotiated and formulated the Plan (and the Plan Supplement) at arm’s length and in good faith. The Plan itself, and the process leading to its formulation, (i) provides independent evidence of the good faith of the Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, and the Backstop Parties (and each of their respective Related Persons) that negotiated the Plan, (ii) serves the public interest, and (iii) assures fair treatment of Holders of Claims and Interests. Consistent with the overriding purpose of the Bankruptcy Code, the Chapter 11 Cases were Filed with the Court, and the Plan was negotiated and proposed, with the legitimate and honest purpose of reorganizing the Debtors and maximizing the value of the Debtors’ Estates for the benefit of all stakeholders.

P.Payments for Services or Costs and Expenses (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(4)). Any payment made or to be made by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, for services or for costs and expenses in or in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Chapter 11 Cases requiring approval, has been approved by, or is subject to the approval of, this Court as reasonable, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Q.Directors, Officers and Insiders (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(5)). The Debtors have complied with Section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code. The identity and affiliations of the Persons proposed to serve as the initial directors and officers of the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date of the Plan have been disclosed. The appointment to, or continuance in, such offices of such Persons is consistent with the interests of Holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors and with public policy. To the extent available, the identity of any insider that will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtors and the nature of such insider’s compensation have also been fully disclosed.

R.No Rate Changes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(6)). The Debtors are not subject to any governmental regulatory commission with jurisdiction, after Confirmation of the Plan, over the rates of the Debtors. Thus, Section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is not applicable in the Chapter 11 Cases.

S.Best Interests of Creditors Test (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(7)). The Plan satisfies Section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidation Analysis set forth in Exhibit C to the Disclosure Statement and other evidence proffered or adduced at the Combined Hearing, including (without limitation) the Brown Declaration, (i) is reasonable, persuasive, credible, and accurate as of the date such analysis or evidence was prepared, presented, or proffered, as applicable; (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions; (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence; and (iv) establishes that each Holder of a Claim or Interest in an Impaired Class either (a) has accepted the Plan or (b) will receive or retain under the Plan, on account of such Claim or Interest, property of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, that is not less than the amount that it would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date.

T.Acceptance by Certain Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(8)). The Holders of Other Secured Claims (Class 1), Other Priority Claims (Class 2), and Intercompany Interests (Class 8) are Unimpaired and thus, under Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan. The Holders of First Lien Notes Claims (Class 3) and Second Lien Notes Claims (Class 4) have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with Section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Holders of General Unsecured Claims (Class 5), Section 510(b) Claims (Class 6), Intercompany Claims (Class 7), and Existing Lux Beneficial Interests (Class 9) are Impaired and thus, under Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, are deemed to have rejected the Plan. Although Section 1129(a)(8) is not satisfied with respect to Class 5, Class 6, and Class 9, the Plan may nevertheless be confirmed because the Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such rejecting Classes of Claims and Interests.

U.Treatment of Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9)). The treatment of Allowed Administrative Claims under Article 2.1 of the Plan and the treatment of Allowed Priority Tax Claims under Article 2.2 of the Plan satisfies the requirements of Sections 1129(a)(9)(C) and 1129(a)(9)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code.

V.Acceptance by At Least One Impaired Class of Claims (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(10)). First Lien Notes Claims (Class 3) and Second Lien Notes Claims (Class 4) are Impaired Classes of Claims that have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by “insiders,” thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code.

W.Feasibility (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(11)). The evidence proffered or adduced at or prior to the Combined Hearing, including the Financial Projections set forth in Exhibit E to the

Disclosure Statement, the Confirmation Memorandum, the Confirmation Declarations, and the Voting Report, (i) is reasonable, persuasive, credible, and accurate as of the date such analysis or evidence was prepared, presented, or proffered, as applicable, (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions, (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence, and (iv) establishes that the Plan is feasible, that there is a reasonable prospect of the Reorganized Debtors being able to meet their financial obligations under the Plan with respect to operating their businesses in the ordinary course, and that Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors or any successor to the Reorganized Debtors, thereby satisfying the requirements of Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

X.Payment of Fees (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(12)). All fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930 have been paid or will be paid pursuant to Article 2.3 of the Plan, thereby satisfying Section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Y.No Retiree Benefits (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(13)). The Debtors do not have obligations to pay retiree benefits and, therefore, Section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent such Section is applicable to the Debtors, is satisfied.

Z.Non-Applicability of Certain Sections (11 U.S.C. §§ 1129(a)(14), (15), and (16)). The Debtors do not owe any domestic support obligations, are not individuals, and are not nonprofit corporations, and thus Sections 1129(a)(14), 1129(a)(15) and 1129(a)(16) of the Bankruptcy Code do not apply to the Chapter 11 Cases.

AA.No Unfair Discrimination; Fair and Equitable (11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)). The Holders of General Unsecured Claims (Class 5), Section 510(b) Claims (Class 6), Intercompany Claims (Class 7), and Existing Lux Beneficial Interests (Class 9) are deemed to have rejected the Plan (the

“Rejecting Classes”). The evidence proffered or adduced at the Combined Hearing (i) is reasonable, persuasive, and credible, (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions, (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence, and (iv) establishes that the Plan does not discriminate unfairly, and is fair and equitable, with respect to the Rejecting Classes, as required by Sections 1129(b)(1) and 1129(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, because no Holder of any Interest that is junior to the Claims and Interests represented by the Rejecting Classes will receive or retain any property under the Plan on account of such junior Interest, and no Holder of a Claim in a Class senior to the Rejecting Classes is receiving more than 100% recovery on account of its Claim. Thus, the Plan may be confirmed notwithstanding the rejection of the Plan by the Rejecting Classes.

BB.Only One Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1129(c)). Other than the Plan (including previous versions of the Plan), no other plan has been Filed with the Court in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the Plan thereby satisfies the requirements of Section 1129(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

CC.Principal Purpose of Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1129(d)). 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) and, therefore, Section 1129(d) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.

DD.Small Business Case (11 U.S.C. § 1129(e)). None of the Chapter 11 Cases is a “small business case,” as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code, and, accordingly, Section 1129(e) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable.

EE.Good Faith (11 U.S.C. § 1125(e)). The evidence proffered or adduced at the Combined Hearing (i) is reasonable, persuasive and credible, (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions, (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence, (iv) establishes that the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, the Backstop

Parties, and each of their respective Related Persons have (a) acted in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, Sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 3017 and 3018 and all other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and all other applicable bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy rules, laws and regulations in connection with their activities related to support, negotiation and Consummation of the Plan, including the execution, delivery and performance of the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the extension of financing under the Exit Facility, the issuance of the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants and solicitation of acceptances of the Plan and (b) participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and any applicable non-bankruptcy law, rule or regulation in the entry into the Exit Facility and the Backstop Commitment Agreement, and the offer and issuance of any Securities under the Plan, (v) establishes that all procedures used to distribute Ballots to the applicable Holders of Claims and to tabulate the Ballots were fair and reasonable and conducted in accordance with the Solicitation Procedures Order and the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations, and (vi) establishes that the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, the Backstop Parties, and each of their respective Related Persons will, as applicable, continue to act in good faith if they consummate the Plan and the agreements, settlements, transactions and transfers contemplated thereby, and take all other actions authorized by this Combined Order. Accordingly, each of the foregoing Persons is entitled to and, pursuant to paragraph 45 of this Combined Order, granted the full protections afforded by Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

FF.Satisfaction of Confirmation Requirements. Based on the foregoing, all other pleadings, documents, exhibits, statements, declarations, and affidavits Filed with the Court in connection with Confirmation of the Plan and all evidence and arguments made, proffered or adduced at the Combined Hearing, the Plan satisfies the requirements for Confirmation set forth in Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

GG.Implementation of Other Necessary Documents and Agreements. All documents and agreements necessary or advisable to implement or carry out the Plan, the Restructuring Transactions (including each of the steps described in the Restructuring Transaction Steps) and the other transactions contemplated by the other Definitive Documents (collectively, the “Restructuring Documents”) needed to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions or contemplated by the Plan (which such documents include, but are not limited to, the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements) are essential elements of the Plan, are necessary for Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan, and are critical to the overall success and feasibility of the Plan, and entry into and consummation of the transactions contemplated by each such Restructuring Document is in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates, consistent with the interests of Holders of Claims and Interests, and shall be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and conditions. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining into which Restructuring Documents and Restructuring Transactions to enter and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of such Restructuring Documents, the Restructuring Transactions, and the material terms thereof to all parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases. The terms and conditions of such Restructuring Documents have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s

length, are fair and reasonable and are reaffirmed and approved. Prior to the Effective Date, PDCL converted to a limited liability company under the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands pursuant to the terms of the Restructuring Transactions. The Debtors, the Exit Facility Agent, and the Exit Facility Lenders negotiated the Exit Facility in good faith and at arm’s length. The Debtors and the Backstop Parties negotiated the Backstop Commitment Agreement in good faith and at arm’s length. Any credit extended and loans made to the Reorganized Debtors by the Exit Facility Lenders and any fees and expenses paid thereunder are deemed to have been extended, issued, and made in good faith. The execution, delivery, or performance by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, of any of the Restructuring Documents (including, without limitation, the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements, and any agreements, documents, instruments, and certificates related thereto) and compliance by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, with the terms thereof is authorized by, and will not conflict with, the terms of the Plan or this Combined Order. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of this Court, to finalize, execute and deliver all Restructuring Documents (including, without limitation, the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements, and any agreements, documents, instruments, and certificates related thereto) and perform their obligations thereunder in accordance with the Plan, this Combined Order, the Restructuring Support Agreement, and such Restructuring Documents.

HH.Classification Takes Into Account Subordination Rights. The classification and manner of satisfying all Claims and Interests under the Plan take into consideration all contractual, legal and equitable rights, including subordination and turnover rights, whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, Section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, that a Holder of a Claim or Interest may have against other Holders of a Claim or Interest with respect to any distribution made pursuant to the Plan.

II.Additional Findings Regarding Releases.

The releases provided pursuant to Article VIII of the Plan (i) represent a sound exercise of the Debtors’ business judgment; (ii) were negotiated in good faith and at arm’s length; and (iii) formed an essential part of the agreement among the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, and the Backstop Parties that participated in the negotiation and formulation of the Plan. The releases are in the best interests of the Debtors and, in the case of the Third-Party Release, is fully-consensual, as all Impaired Holders of Claims were given an opportunity to “opt out” of such release. The Released Parties played an integral role in the formulation of the Plan, have made significant concessions and contributions that are essential to the Plan’s success, and have expended significant time and resources analyzing and negotiating the Plan and the issues presented by the Debtors’ prepetition capital structure and financial condition.

With respect to the Debtor Release set forth in Article 8.2 of the Plan, the Debtors have satisfied the business judgment standard with respect to the propriety of the Debtor Release. Such release is a necessary and integral

element of the Plan, and is fair, reasonable, and in the best interests of the Debtors, the Estates, and the Holders of Claims and Interests. The Debtor Release is: (i) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties; (ii) a good faith settlement and compromise of the Claims released by the Debtor Release; (iii) in the best interest of the Debtors and their Estates; (iv) fair, equitable and reasonable; (v) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (vi) a bar to the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or their Estates asserting any Claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Debtor Release. The Debtor Release for the parties to the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement is appropriate because such parties supported the Plan and have agreed to, as applicable, (A) equitize their Claims to delever the Debtors’ prepetition capital structure and backstop and extend financing under the Exit Facility, thereby providing valuable consideration to the Debtors to facilitate the Debtors’ reorganization, and (B) authorize the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral during the Chapter 11 Cases. The scope of the Debtor Release is appropriately tailored under the facts and circumstances of the Chapter 11 Cases. The Debtor Release is appropriate in light of, among other things, the value provided by the Released Parties to the Debtors’ Estates and the critical nature of the Debtor Release to the Plan.

The Third-Party Release set forth in Article 8.3 of the Plan is an integral part of the Plan. Like the Debtor Release, the Third-Party Release facilitated participation in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Backstop

Commitment Agreement, the Plan, the Exit Facility, and the Chapter 11 process generally. The Third-Party Release was a critical and integral component of the Restructuring Support Agreement and the parties’ agreement to support the Plan thereby preventing significant and time-consuming litigation regarding the parties’ respective rights and interests. The Third-Party Release was also a critical and integral component of the Backstop Commitment Agreement and the parties’ agreement to backstop and extend financing under the Exit Facility. The Third-Party Release was a core negotiation point in connection with the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement and instrumental in developing a Plan that maximized value for all of the Debtors’ stakeholders. Absent such release, the parties to the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement would not have signed the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement, as applicable. As such, the Third-Party Release appropriately offers certain protections to parties that constructively participated in the Debtors’ restructuring process by, among other things, supporting the Plan and agreeing to backstop and extend financing under the Exit Facility. The Third-Party Release is consensual as to all parties in interest, including all Releasing Parties. All parties in interest were provided notice of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan, and the deadline to object to Confirmation of the Plan, and received the Combined Notice and a Ballot or the Notice of Non-Voting Status, and were properly informed that the Holders of Claims against the Debtors that did not check the “Opt Out”

box on the applicable Ballot, returned in advance of the Voting Deadline would be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably and forever consented to the release and discharge of all Claims and Causes of Action against the Debtors and the Released Parties. Additionally, the release provisions of the Plan were conspicuous, emphasized with boldface type in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Ballots, the Notice of Non-Voting Status, and the Combined Notice. The Third-Party Release is: (i) consensual; (ii) essential to Confirmation of the Plan; (iii) given in exchange for substantial contribution; (iv) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties that is important to the Plan; (v) a good faith settlement and compromise of the Claims released by the Third-Party Release; (vi) in the best interest of the Debtors and all Holders of Claims; (vii) fair, equitable and reasonable; (viii) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (ix) a bar to any of the Releasing Parties asserting any Claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Third-Party Release. The Third-Party Release for the parties to the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement is appropriate because such parties supported the Plan and have agreed to, as applicable, (A) equitize their Claims to delever the Debtors’ prepetition capital structure and backstop and extend financing under the Exit Facility, thereby providing valuable consideration to the Debtors to facilitate the Debtors’ reorganization, and (B) authorize the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral during the Chapter 11 Cases.

The release and discharge of all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests against any property of the Estates described in Article 8.7 of the Plan (the “Lien Release”) (except as otherwise provided in this Combined Order or Article 8.7 of the Plan) is necessary to implement the Plan. The provisions of the Lien Release are appropriate, fair, equitable, and reasonable and are in the best interests of the Debtors, the Estates, and Holders of Claims and Interests.

JJ.Findings Regarding Restructuring Transaction Steps. The Restructuring Transactions including, without limitation, each of the following Restructuring Transaction Steps—the conversion of PDCL to a limited liability company, the contribution of Intercompany Receivables, the extinguishment of the PSS Payable and the PDOI Payable, the PDNL Rig Transaction, the transfer of the Interests in PDCL, the effectuation of the New Operating Agreement, the issuance of the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants, and the reinstatement of Intercompany Interests—are fair and for reasonably equivalent value.

KK.Plan Supplement. The filing and notice of the Plan Supplement, and any amendments, modifications or supplements thereto, were proper and in accordance with the Plan, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules, and no other or further notice is or shall be required.

LL.Incorporation by Reference. The terms of the Plan, including the Plan Supplement, and the exhibits and schedules thereto are incorporated by reference into, and are an integral part of, this Combined Order. The terms of the Plan, including the documents contained in the Plan Supplement, all exhibits thereto, and all other relevant and necessary documents, including the Restructuring Documents, shall be effective and binding as of the Effective Date.

MM.Lien Stipulation.

The First Lien Notes Claims constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of each of the Debtors, and no offsets, defenses, or counterclaims to, or Claims or Causes of Action that could reduce the amount or ranking of, the First Lien Notes Claims exist. No portion of the First Lien Notes Claims is subject to set-off, avoidance, impairment, disallowance, recharacterization, reduction, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), counterclaims, recoupment, cross-claims, defenses, or any other challenges under or pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable domestic or foreign law or regulation by any person or entity. The Liens securing the First Lien Notes Claims are (i) valid, binding, perfected, and enforceable Liens on and security interests in the applicable “Collateral” (as defined in the First Lien Notes Indenture); and (ii) not subject to, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law (foreign or domestic), avoidance, disallowance, reduction, recharacterization, recovery, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), attachment, offset, counterclaim, defense, “claim” (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code), impairment, or any other challenge of any kind by any person or entity.

The Second Lien Notes Claims constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of each of the Debtors, and no offsets, defenses, or counterclaims to, or Claims or Causes of Action that could reduce the amount or ranking of, the Second Lien Notes Claims exist. No portion of the Second Lien Notes Claims is subject to set-off, avoidance, impairment,

disallowance, recharacterization, reduction, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), counterclaims, recoupment, cross-claims, defenses, or any other challenges under or pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable domestic or foreign law or regulation by any person or entity. The Liens securing the Second Lien Notes Claims are (i) valid, binding, perfected, and enforceable Liens on and security interests in the applicable “Collateral” (as defined in the Second Lien Notes Indenture); and (ii) not subject to, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law (foreign or domestic), avoidance, disallowance, reduction, recharacterization, recovery, subordination (whether equitable, contractual, or otherwise), attachment, offset, counterclaim, defense, “claim” (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code), impairment, or any other challenge of any kind by any person or entity.

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:

1.Disclosure Statement Approved. The Disclosure Statement (a) contains “adequate information” (as such term is defined in Section 1125(a)(1) and used in Section 1126(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the Debtors, the Plan, and the transactions contemplated therein, and (b) is approved in all respects.

2.Confirmation of the Plan. All requirements for Confirmation of the Plan have been satisfied. The Plan is approved and confirmed in its entirety under Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each of the terms and conditions of the Plan and the exhibits and schedules thereto, including, without limitation, the Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement and the

Restructuring Transaction Steps, are an integral part of the Plan, and are approved. The Plan complies with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules. The Plan is deemed accepted by all creditors who have voted to accept the Plan and such acceptances cannot be withdrawn, except as set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement.

3.Objections. Based upon the record of the Combined Hearing and the Chapter 11 Cases, any objections that have not been consensually resolved, withdrawn, waived, or settled and all reservations of rights included therein, are overruled on the merits and for the reasons set forth on the record at the Combined Hearing, and all withdrawn objections are deemed withdrawn with prejudice.

4.Provisions of Plan Nonseverable and Mutually Dependent. The provisions of the Plan are (a) non-severable and mutually dependent; (b) valid and enforceable pursuant to their terms; and (c) integral to the Plan, and may not be deleted or modified except in accordance with Article X of the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement (including the consent rights contained therein).

5.Plan Classification Controlling. The classification of Claims and Interests for purposes of the distributions to be made under the Plan shall be governed solely by the terms of the Plan. The classifications set forth on the Ballots tendered to or returned by the Debtors’ creditors in connection with voting on the Plan (a) were set forth on the Ballots solely for purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan, (b) do not necessarily represent, and in no event shall be deemed to modify or otherwise affect, the actual classification of such Claims under the Plan for distribution purposes, (c) may not be relied upon by any Holder of Claims or Interests as representing the actual classification of such Claims under the Plan for distribution or any other purpose (other than for evidencing the vote of such party on the Plan), and (d) shall not be binding

on the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or Holders of Claims or Interests for purposes other than voting on the Plan.

6.Distributions are Fair. The distribution of Cash, the New PDC Equity, the New 2L Warrants, and other consideration to the Holders of Allowed Claims entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan are fair and for reasonably equivalent value.

7.Binding Effect. Pursuant to Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code and the other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 3020(e), 6004(h), or otherwise, on the Effective Date and effective as of the Effective Date and without limiting or altering Article 12.1 of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan (including the exhibits and schedules to, and all documents and agreements executed pursuant to or in connection with, the Plan) and this Combined Order shall be binding on (a) the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, (b) all Holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors, (c) all Persons and Entities that are parties to or are subject to the settlements, compromises, releases, discharges, and injunctions described in the Plan, (d) each Person and Entity acquiring property under the Plan, (e) any and all non-Debtor parties to Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases with the Debtors and the respective successors and assigns of each of the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and notwithstanding whether or not such Person or Entity (i) shall receive or retain any property, or interest in property, under the Plan, (ii) has Filed with the Court a Proof of Claim in the Chapter 11 Cases or (iii) failed to vote to accept or reject the Plan, affirmatively voted to reject the Plan, or is conclusively presumed to reject the Plan.

8.Automatic Stay. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, all injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Cases under Sections 105 and 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the

Effective Date, and at that time shall be dissolved and of no further force or effect, subject to the injunction set forth in Article VIII of the Plan and Sections 524 and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon the Effective Date, the injunction provided in Article VIII of the Plan shall apply. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, nothing herein shall bar the filing of financing documents (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, Security agreements, leases, mortgages, trust agreements and bills of sale) or the taking of such other actions as are necessary or appropriate to effectuate the transactions specifically contemplated by the Plan or by this Combined Order prior to the Effective Date.

9.Corporate Existence.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Combined Order, the Plan, any Restructuring Document, or any other agreement, instrument, or other document incorporated herein or therein (including the Restructuring Transactions, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements), on the Effective Date, each Debtor shall continue to exist after the Effective Date as a separate corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or other form of Entity, as the case may be, with all the powers of a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or other form of Entity, as the case may be, 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 by-laws (or other analogous formation documents) in effect before the Effective Date, except to the extent such certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or other analogous formation documents) is amended and restated, converted or otherwise modified by this Combined Order, the Plan, any Restructuring Document, or any other agreement, instrument, or other document incorporated herein or therein

(including the Restructuring Transactions, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements), or otherwise, and to the extent any such document is amended, such document is deemed to be amended pursuant to the Plan and requires no further action or approval (other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law).

(b)Pursuant to this Combined Order and the Plan, legal title to all Existing Lux Interests shall be deemed transferred to the Estate Representative or another non-Debtor Affiliate (the “Sole Owner”), as provided in the Restructuring Transaction Steps. Upon transfer of all Existing Lux Interests to the Estate Representative or Sole Owner, the following (without limitation) shall occur: (i) the Debtors shall serve an instruction letter to DTC, notifying DTC of instructions with respect to the cancellation of (and distribution of 91.5% of the New PDC Equity to Holders of) First Lien Notes and the cancellation of (and distribution of 8.5% of the New PDC Equity and New 2L Warrants to Holders of) Second Lien Notes (the “Instruction Letter”); (ii) the Debtors shall serve an instruction letter to DTC (or American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”)) notifying DTC (or AST) of the transfer of the Existing Lux Interests to the Estate Representative or Sole Owner and deeming the Existing Lux Interests worthless (the “Transfer Letter”); (iii) all the Existing Lux Interests will be deemed transferred and owned by a single shareholder (i.e., the Estate Representative or Sole Owner) (the “Lux Transfer”); (iv) the New Organizational Documents shall automatically be amended to reduce the number of directors of PDSA to one director; (v) the resignation of all directors of PDSA, other than Bernie G.

10.Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors Free and Clear of Liens and Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Combined Order, the Plan, any Restructuring Document, or any other agreement, instrument, or other document incorporated herein or therein (including the Restructuring Transactions, the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements), on the Effective Date, pursuant to Sections 1141(b) and (c) of the Bankruptcy Code, all property in each Debtor’s Estate, all Causes of Action, and any property acquired by any of the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases or under or in connection with the Plan shall vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, free and clear of all Liens, Claims, charges, or other encumbrances. On and after the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided herein, each Reorganized Debtor may operate its business and may use, acquire, or dispose of property and pursue, compromise or settle any Claims, Interests, or Causes of Action without supervision or approval by the Court and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rules.

11.Restructuring Transaction Steps. On the Effective Date, the Restructuring Transaction Steps, as set forth in the Plan Supplement and attached hereto as Exhibit 2, shall occur. As contemplated in the Restructuring Transaction Steps (and pursuant to this Combined Order and the Plan):

(a) (i) the Intercompany Receivables shall be contributed from Pacific Drilling Holding (Gibraltar) Limited to Pacific Sharav S.À R.L. (“PSS”), (ii) the PSS Payable shall be extinguished, (iii) the PDOI Intercompany Receivable shall be contributed from PSS to Pacific Drilling Operations Inc., and (iv) the PDOI Payable shall be extinguished;

(b)The PDNL Rig Transaction shall be consummated, resulting in Pacific Drilling Limited owning 100% of the Interests in Pacific Bora Ltd. and Pacific Scirocco Ltd.;

(d)Reorganized PDC shall issue (i) 91.5% of the New PDC Equity to the Holders of Allowed First Lien Notes Claims (subject to dilution on account of equity issued pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan, if any, and the New 2L Warrants), (ii) 8.5% of the New PDC Equity to the Holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims (subject to dilution on account of the equity issued pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan, if any, and the New 2L Warrants), and (iii) the New 2L Warrants;

(e)(i) the Intercompany Interests shall be reinstated, (ii) PDSA shall be discharged of outstanding First Lien Notes Claims, Second Lien Notes Claims, Existing Lux Beneficial Interests, and all other Claims (including General Unsecured Claims and Intercompany Claims against PDSA), and (iii) the Lux Transfer to the Estate Representative or the Sole Owner shall be effectuated. Immediately following the Lux Transfer, the resignation of all directors of PDSA, other than Bernie G. Wolford, shall be effective, and the duties and obligations of all such resigning directors shall be discharged. This Combined Order may be submitted to any record Holder of any Claim or Interest, PDSA’s transfer agent, or any Governmental Unit as evidence of the Lux Transfer.

12.Exit Facility Documents.

(a)On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall enter into the Exit Facility, the terms of which will be set forth in the Exit Facility Documents (subject to the RSA Definitive Document Requirements and the Backstop Commitment Agreement).

(a)The entry of this Combined Order shall be deemed approval of the Exit Facility and the Exit Facility Documents and all transactions contemplated thereby, and all actions to be taken, undertakings to be made, and obligations to be incurred by the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith, including the payment of all fees, indemnities, expenses, and other payments (including the Put Option Premium (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) and any other fees indemnities, expenses and other amounts set forth in the Backstop Commitment Agreement) provided for therein and authorization of the Reorganized Debtors to enter into and execute the Exit Facility Documents and such other documents as may be required to effectuate the treatment afforded by the Exit Facility. On the Effective Date, the Exit Facility Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and authorized indebtedness and obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, enforceable against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the other parties thereto in accordance with their respective terms and such indebtedness and obligations shall not be, and shall not be deemed to be, enjoined or subject to discharge, impairment, release or avoidance under the Plan, this Combined Order or on account of the Confirmation or Consummation of the Plan.

(b)On the Effective Date, all of the Liens and security interests to be granted in accordance with the Exit Facility Documents (a) shall be deemed to be granted; (b) shall be legal, binding, and enforceable Liens on, and security interests in, the collateral granted thereunder in accordance with the terms of the Exit Facility Documents; (c) shall be deemed automatically

perfected on the Effective Date, subject only to such Liens and security interests as may be permitted under the Exit Facility Documents; and (d) shall not be subject to recharacterization or equitable subordination for any purposes whatsoever and shall not constitute preferential transfers or fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable non-bankruptcy law. The guarantees, mortgages, pledges, Liens, and other security interests granted to secure the obligations arising under the Exit Facility Documents have been granted in good faith, for legitimate business purposes, and for reasonably equivalent value as an inducement to the lenders thereunder to extend credit thereunder and shall be deemed not to constitute a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer and shall not otherwise be subject to avoidance, recharacterization, or equitable subordination for any purposes whatsoever and shall not constitute preferential transfers or fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable non-bankruptcy law, and the priorities of such Liens and security interests shall be as set forth in the Exit Facility Documents.

24.Contracts and Leases Generally. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining whether to assume or reject each of the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases as set forth within the Plan (including the Plan Supplement), this Combined Order or otherwise.

25.Approval of Assumed Contracts.

(a)Except as otherwise provided herein, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease shall be deemed assumed, without the need for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of this Court, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, unless such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (i) was previously assumed or rejected; (ii) was previously expired or terminated pursuant to its own terms; (iii) is the subject of a motion to assume or assume and assign Filed with the Court on or before the Confirmation Date; or (iv) is designated specifically, or by category, as an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease on the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. The assumption of Executory

Contracts and Unexpired Leases hereunder may include the assignment of certain of such contracts or leases to Affiliates.

(b) The Debtors have provided sufficient notice to each non-Debtor counterparty to the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases of the assumptions or rejections described in the Plan, including the Plan Supplement. The Debtors have also provided adequate assurances of future performance, as that term is used in Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to the assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that is to be assumed pursuant to the Plan.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Combined Order or the Plan or agreed to by the Debtors and the applicable counterparty, each assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements related thereto, and all rights related thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any other interests. To the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned (as applicable) pursuant to the Plan (including any “change of control” provision) prohibits, restricts, conditions, or prevents, or purports to prohibit, restrict, condition, or prevent, or is modified, breached, or terminated, or deemed modified, breached, or terminated by, (i) the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases or the insolvency or financial condition of any Debtor at any time before the closing of its respective Chapter 11 Case, (ii) the assumption or assumption and assignment (as applicable) of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, or (iii) the Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to modify or terminate such Executory Contract or

Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights or remedies with respect thereto, and any such consent under any such contract or lease shall be deemed satisfied by Confirmation of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases at any time through and including 45 days after the Effective Date. Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith. The inclusion or exclusion of a contract or lease on any schedule or exhibit shall not constitute an admission by the Debtors that such contract or lease is an Executory Contract or an Unexpired Lease or that any Debtor has any liability thereunder.

(d) Each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to the Plan (collectively, the “Assumed Contracts”) shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor or the applicable assignee in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as modified by the provisions of the Plan, or any order of this Court approving its assumption or assignment.

26.Cure Disputes. Any counterparty to an Assumed Contract that failed to object timely to the proposed assumption, proposed assumption and assignment, or the Cure Claim amount is hereby deemed to have consented to such matters and is deemed to have forever released and waived any objection to the proposed assumption, proposed assumption and assignment, and the Cure Claim amount. The amounts, if any, due by the Debtors pursuant to each Assumed

Contract that are required to be paid as Cure under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code shall be satisfied by payment of such amount in Cash on the Effective Date or on such other terms as this Court may order or the parties to such Assumed Contract may otherwise agree in writing (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors). If there is any dispute regarding any Cure, 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 any other matter pertaining to assumption or assignment, then payment of Cure shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable after entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute, approving such assumption (and, if applicable, assignment), or as may be agreed upon by the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the counterparty to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease. If an objection to the proposed Cure amount is sustained by Final Order of this Court, the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may elect to reject such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease in lieu of assuming or assigning it by filing written notice thereof with this Court, and serving such notice on the applicable counterparty, within ten (10) days of the entry of such Final Order.

27.Full Release and Satisfaction of Claims in Connection with Assumed Contracts. Assumption or assumption and assignment of any Assumed Contract pursuant to the Plan or otherwise and full payment of any applicable Cure amount pursuant to Article 5.2 of the Plan shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Cures, Claims or defaults, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any Assumed Contract at any time prior to the effective date of assumption or assumption and assignment, in each case as

provided in Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any Proofs of Claim Filed with the Court with respect to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that has been assumed or assumed and assigned by Final Order shall be deemed disallowed and expunged (subject to any Cure Claims Filed with the Court with respect thereto), without further notice to or action, order, or approval of this Court.

28.Corporate Action.

(a)Subject to the Restructuring Support Agreement, upon the Effective Date, all actions contemplated by the Plan or the Restructuring Transactions (including the Restructuring Transaction Steps) shall be deemed authorized, approved, and, to the extent taken prior to the Effective Date, ratified without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement for further action by Holders of Claims or Interests, directors, managers, or officers of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or any other Entity, including, without limitation, (i) the rejection or assumption, as applicable, of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases; (ii) the selection of the directors, managers, and officers for the Reorganized Debtors, including the appointment of the New Board; (iii) the entry, execution, delivery, filing, and performance of the Restucturing Documents, including without limitation, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements, as applicable; (iv) the adoption or filing of the New Organizational Documents and the New Operating Agreement; (v) the issuance and distribution, or other transfer, of the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants as provided herein; (vi) the implementation of the Restructuring Transactions; and (vii) all other acts or actions contemplated, or reasonably necessary or appropriate to promptly consummate the

(b)Prior to, on or after the Effective Date (as appropriate), all matters provided for pursuant to the Plan that would otherwise require approval of the stockholders, directors, officers, managers, members or partners of the Debtors (as of prior to the Effective Date) shall be deemed to have been so approved and shall be in effect prior to, on or after the Effective Date (as appropriate) pursuant to applicable law and without any requirement of further action by such Person or Entity, or the need for any approvals, authorizations, actions or consents of or from any such Person or Entity.

(c)As of the Effective Date, all matters provided for in the Plan involving the corporate structure of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and any corporate action required by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith, shall be deemed to have occurred on, and shall be in effect as of, the Effective Date, without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action by the security Holders, directors, managers, authorized persons, or officers of the Debtors.

(d)On or (as applicable) before the Effective Date, the appropriate officers of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be authorized and (as applicable) directed to issue, execute, and deliver the Restructuring Documents and any other agreements, documents, securities, and instruments contemplated by the Plan (or necessary or desirable to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions consistent with the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement) in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, including the Cayman Restructuring Documents, the Plan Supplement, the Exit Facility Documents, the New

“U.S. Trustee”), Attn: Hector Duran, Esq. (email: hector.duran.jr@usdoj.gov), Stephen Statham, Esq. (email: stephen.statham@usdoj.gov).

(c)Objections to Professional Fee Claims. Objections to any Professional Fee Claim must be Filed with the Court and served on the Reorganized Debtors and the requesting party by no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days after the Filing of the applicable Final Fee Application (the “Professional Fees Objection Deadline”), with proof of service thereof Filed with the Court as and when required by the Local Rules of the Court. Only those objections made in writing and timely Filed with the Court and received by the Professional Fees Objection Deadline shall be considered by this Court. If no objection to a Final Fee Application is timely Filed with the Court and served in accordance with the procedures set forth herein, then this Court may enter a Final Order approving such uncontested Final Fee Application without further notice and the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay the amounts described in such uncontested Final Fee Application within five (5) Business Days after entry of the order approving such Allowed Professional Fee Claim (or if any Final Fee Application is the subject of an objection, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay the undisputed amounts described in such Final Fee Application on an interim basis). The hearing to consider approval of the Final Fee Application, if necessary, shall be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the expiration of the Professional Fees Objection Deadline and the date of such hearing shall be promptly provided to the applicable Professional and Notice Parties and posted on the Debtors’ restructuring website.

(d) Funding and Use of Professional Fee Escrow Account. On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall establish and fund the Professional Fee Escrow Account with Cash equal to the Professional Fee Reserve Amount. The Professional Fee Escrow Account shall

be maintained by the Reorganized Debtors in trust solely for the benefit of the Retained Professionals. Such funds shall not be considered property of the Estates of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors. The amount of Professional Fee Claims owing to the Retained Professionals shall be paid in Cash to such Retained Professionals by the Reorganized Debtors from the Professional Fee Escrow Account as soon as reasonably practicable after such Professional Fee Claims are Allowed by a Final Order. When all such Professional Fee Claims have been resolved (either because they are Allowed Professional Fee Claims that have been paid or because they have been disallowed, expunged, or withdrawn), any remaining amount in the Professional Fee Escrow Account shall promptly be paid to the Reorganized Debtors without any further action or order of this Court. To the extent that funds held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account are insufficient to satisfy the amount of Allowed Professional Fee Claims owed to the Retained Professionals, such Retained Professionals shall have an Allowed Administrative Claim for any such deficiency, which shall be satisfied in accordance with Article 2.1 of the Plan. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall maintain detailed records of all payments made from the Professional Fee Escrow Account, such that all payments and transactions shall be adequately and promptly documented in, and readily ascertainable from, their books and records. After the Effective Date, neither the Debtors nor the Reorganized Debtors shall deposit any other funds or property into the Professional Fee Escrow Account absent further order from this Court or otherwise commingle funds in the Professional Fee Escrow Account.

33.Payment of Crossover Group Representative Fees and Expenses. On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall pay or reimburse all Crossover Group Representatives Fees in accordance with the applicable Fee Letters, without the need for application by any Crossover Group Representative to the Court and without notice and a hearing pursuant to Section 1129(a)(4) of the

Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, such fees and expenses shall not be considered Professional Fee Claims.

34.Payment of Fees and Expenses of Milbank LLP. On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall pay or reimburse, in accordance with the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, all fees and expenses up to a total aggregate amount not to exceed $100,000 incurred by Milbank LLP as counsel to certain Consenting Second Lien Creditors, without the need for application to the Court and without notice and a hearing pursuant to Section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, such fees and expenses shall not be considered Professional Fee Claims.

35.Distributions Under the Plan. All distributions under the Plan shall be made in accordance with Article VI of the Plan.

36.Resolution of Contingent, Unliquidated and Disputed Claims and Interests. Except as otherwise ordered by this Court, any Claim or Interest that is not an Allowed Claim as of the Confirmation Date shall be determined, resolved, or adjudicated in accordance with the terms of this Combined Order and the Plan, including, without limitation, Article VII of the Plan.

37.No Distributions Pending Allowance. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Combined Order to the contrary, no payments or distributions of any kind or nature shall be made with respect to all or any portion of a Disputed Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

38.No Postpetition Interest on Claims. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan, this Combined Order, or a Final Order of this Court postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim. Additionally, without limiting the foregoing, interest shall not

accrue or be paid on any Disputed Claim with respect to the period from the Effective Date to the date a final distribution is made on account of a Disputed Claim, if and when such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

39.Compromise of Controversies. Pursuant to 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, Interests, and controversies relating to the contractual, legal, and subordination rights that a Holder of a Claim or Interest may have with respect to any Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, or any distribution to be made on account of such Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest. The entry of this Combined Order shall constitute the Court’s approval of the compromise or settlement of all such Claims, Interests, and controversies, as well as a finding by the Court that such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, and Holders of Claims and Interests and is fair, equitable, and reasonable. In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Court, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may compromise and settle Claims against the Debtors and their Estates and Causes of Action against other Entities; provided that nothing in Article 8.1 of the Plan shall be interpreted to interfere with (a) the transfer of legal title to all Existing Lux Interests to the extent required by the Restructuring Transactions (including the Restructuring Transaction Steps) and (b) the actions to be taken by the Estate Representative, the Sole Owner, or any Designated Representatives to dissolve or liquidate PDSA and obtain a discharge of duties on behalf of PDSA’s board of directors, as set forth in Article 4.12 of the Plan, to the extent required by the Restructuring Transactions (including the Restructuring Transaction Steps).

40.Payment of Statutory Fees. Prior to the Effective Date, all monthly reports then due shall be filed in a form reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee, and all fees due and payable pursuant to Section 1930 of Title 28 of the U.S. Code (“Quarterly Fees”) prior to the Effective Date shall be paid by the Debtors. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay any and all such fees when due and payable, and shall File with the Court quarterly reports in a form reasonably acceptable to the U.S. Trustee. Each Debtor shall remain obligated to pay Quarterly Fees to the U.S. Trustee until the earliest of that particular Debtor’s case being closed, dismissed, or converted to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

41.Notice of Confirmed Plan. In accordance with Bankruptcy Rules 2002(f)(7), 2002(k) and 3020(c), as soon as reasonably practicable after the Confirmation Date, the Debtors shall serve a notice of entry of this Combined Order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 3 (the “Notice of Confirmed Plan”) by first-class mail, postage prepaid on all known creditors, equity Security holders, the U.S. Trustee and other parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases. The notice described herein is adequate and appropriate under the particular circumstances and no other or further notice is necessary or required. The Notice of Confirmed Plan shall constitute sufficient notice of the entry of this Combined Order to filing and recording officers and shall be a recordable instrument notwithstanding any contrary provision of applicable non-bankruptcy law.

42.Notice of Effective Date. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 2002(f)(7), 2002(k), and 3020(c), the Reorganized Debtors shall, promptly after the occurrence of the Effective Date, File with the Court a notice of the Effective Date in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit 4 (the “Notice of Effective Date”), and shall cause the Notice of Effective Date to be served on the parties on whom the Combined Notice was served within ten (10) Business Days after the

Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. Such notice is adequate under the circumstances and no other or further notice is necessary.

43.Administrative Claims Bar Date. All requests for payment of an Administrative Claim (other than Cure Claims or Professional Fee Claims) that accrued on or before the Effective Date that were not otherwise accrued in the ordinary course of business must be filed with the Court or Solicitation Agent, as applicable, and served on the Debtors and the Crossover Group no later than the Administrative Claims Bar Date. Holders of Administrative Claims (other than Cure Claims or Professional Fee Claims) that are required to, but do not, file and serve a request for payment of such Administrative Claims by the Administrative Claims Bar Date shall be forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from asserting such Administrative Claims against the Debtors or their property and such Administrative Claims shall be deemed discharged as of the Effective Date.

44.Claims Bar Date for Other Secured Claims and Other Priority Claims. In the event that a Holder of an Other Secured Claim or Other Priority Claim objects to the proposed Claim amount disclosed by the Debtors in Exhibit H of the Plan Supplement (including, without limitation, in the event that such Holder was not identified as holding an Other Secured Claim or Other Priority Claim or that the amount of any such Claim was identified as $0), such Holder shall be required to File a Proof of Claim by the Claims Bar Date asserting the actual amount it believes it is owed. Any such Holder that fails to file a Proof of Claim by the Claims Bar Date shall be deemed to have consented to the Claim amount proposed by the Debtors and shall be deemed to have forever released and waived any objection to such amount.

45.No Liability for Solicitation. Based on the factual findings described in this Combined Order, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, the Backstop Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, and each of their respective Related Persons are not, and

on account of or with respect to the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of any Security under the Plan, or solicitation of votes on the Plan, shall not be, liable at any time for any violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or the distribution, offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of any Securities. The Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Consenting Creditors, the Backstop Parties, the Prepetition Secured Parties, and each of their respective Related Persons have (a) acted in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations in connection with their activities related to support and Consummation of the Plan, including the execution, delivery and performance of the Restructuring Support Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance of the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the extension of financing under the Exit Facility, the issuance of the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants, and solicitation of acceptances of the Plan and (b) participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and any applicable non-bankruptcy law, rule or regulation in the entry into the Exit Facility and the offer and issuance of any Securities under the Plan, and are, therefore, entitled to, and are hereby granted, the protections afforded by Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

46.Estimation Proceedings and Other Rights. Except as provided in the Plan, any and all rights of the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors under Sections 502(c) and 502(e) of the Bankruptcy Code are reserved.

47.Failure to Consummate Plan. If the Effective Date does not occur on or before the termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement, or if, prior to the Effective Date, this Combined Order is vacated pursuant to a Final Order, then (except as provided in any such Final Order): (a) the Plan shall be null and void in all respects; (b) any settlement or compromise

embodied in the Plan, assumption or rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases effected under the Plan, and any document or agreement executed pursuant to the Plan, shall be deemed null and void; and (c) nothing contained in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Restructuring Support Agreement, or this Combined Order shall: (i) constitute a waiver or release of any Claims, Interests, or Causes of Action; (ii) prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtors or any other Entity; or (iii) constitute an admission, acknowledgement, offer, or undertaking of any sort by the Debtors or any other Entity.

48.Successors and Assigns. The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, all present and former Holders of Claims and Interests, other parties in interest, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns. The rights, benefits and obligations of any Person or Entity named or referred to in the Plan or this Combined Order shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, any heir, executor, administrator, successor or assign of each such Person or Entity.

49.No Successors In Interest. Except as to obligations expressly assumed pursuant to the Plan, the Restructuring Documents, or this Combined Order, the Reorganized Debtors shall not be deemed to be successors to the Debtors and shall not assume, nor be deemed to assume, or in any way be responsible for, any successor liability or similar liability with respect to the Debtors or the Debtors’ operations that are not expressly assumed or reinstated in connection with, or expressly provided by, the Plan or this Combined Order.

50.Return of Deposits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in an order previously entered by this Court, all adequate assurance deposits provided by the Debtors to utility providers pursuant to the Order (I) Prohibiting Utility Companies from Altering or Discontinuing Service on Account of Prepetition Invoices, (II) Approving Deposit as Adequate

Assurance of Payment, and (III) Establishing Procedures for Resolving Requests by Utility Companies for Additional Assurance of Payment [Docket No. 64] shall be returned to the Reorganized Debtors within ten (10) Business Days of the applicable utility receiving written notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date.

51.Retention of Jurisdiction. Pursuant to Sections 105(a) and 1142 of the Bankruptcy Code and notwithstanding the entry of this Combined Order or the occurrence of the Effective Date, this Court shall, on and after the Effective Date, retain exclusive jurisdiction over the Chapter 11 Cases and all Entities with respect to all matters related to the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors, and the Plan as legally permissible, including, among other things, jurisdiction over the matters set forth in Article XI of the Plan. This Court shall retain jurisdiction to hear and determine all matters arising from the implementation of this Combined Order. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of the Plan or this Combined Order to the contrary, any dispute arising under or in connection with the Exit Facility Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements shall be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of such applicable documents.

52.Headings. The headings contained within this Combined Order are used for the convenience of the parties and shall not alter or affect the meaning of the text of this Combined Order.

53.Existing Board of Directors. To the extent applicable, the resignation of members of the boards of directors and other governing Persons of PDSA shall be deemed to have occurred on and as of the Effective Date, in each case without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person or Entity.

54.References to Plan Provisions. The failure specifically to include or reference any particular article, section or provision of the Plan (including the Plan Supplement) or any related document in this Combined Order shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such article, section or provision, it being the intent of this Court that the Plan (and the exhibits and schedules thereto) be confirmed in its entirety and any related documents be approved in their entirety and incorporated herein by reference.

55.Applicable Non-Bankruptcy Law. The provisions of this Combined Order, the Plan and related documents, or any amendments or modifications thereto, shall apply and be enforceable notwithstanding any otherwise applicable non-bankruptcy law.

56.Modification and Amendments. Without need for further order or authorization of the Court, subject to the Restructuring Support Agreement and the consents required therein, including the RSA Definitive Document Requirements, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized and empowered to make any and all modifications to any and all documents that are necessary to effectuate the Plan that do not materially modify the terms of such documents and are consistent with the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement (subject to any applicable consents or consultation rights set forth therein, including the RSA Definitive Document Requirements). Subject to the limitations and rights contained in the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement (including the RSA Definitive Document Requirements and any other consent rights contained therein), the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may, upon order of the Court, amend or modify the Plan in accordance with Section 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or to remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in such manner as may be necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Combined Order or the Plan, the Debtors or the

Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall not amend or modify the Plan in a manner inconsistent with the Restructuring Support Agreement. A Holder of a Claim or Interest that has accepted the Plan shall be deemed to have accepted the Plan, as altered, amended or modified, if the proposed alteration, amendment or modification does not materially and adversely change the treatment of the Claim or Interest of such Holder.

57.Restructuring Support Agreement. Nothing in the Plan (including the Plan Supplement and any schedules contained therein (in each case, as may be amended, modified, or supplemented)) or this Combined Order shall amend, terminate, or otherwise modify any consent rights provided to the Consenting Creditors under the Restructuring Support Agreement.

58.Waiver of Filings. Any requirement under Section 521 of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rule 1007 obligating the Debtors to File with the Court any list, schedule, or statement with the Court or the U.S. Trustee (except for post-Confirmation reporting obligations to the U.S. Trustee) is hereby waived.

59.No Admission or Waiver. None of the filing of the Plan, any statement or provision contained within the Plan or the taking of any action by any Debtor with respect to the Plan (including the Plan Supplement), the Disclosure Statement or this Combined Order shall be or shall be deemed to be an admission or waiver of any rights of any Debtor.

60.Conflicts. The provisions of the Plan (including the Plan Supplement), any Restructuring Documents and of this Combined Order shall be construed in a manner consistent with each other so as to effect the purposes of each; provided, however, that if there is any conflict or inconsistency between the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or any Restructuring Document, on the one hand, and this Combined Order, on the other hand, that cannot be so reconciled, then, solely to the extent of such inconsistency, the terms of this Combined Order shall control and govern. In

the event that a provision of the Disclosure Statement (including any and all exhibits and attachments thereto) conflicts with a provision of the Plan or this Combined Order, the provision of the Plan or this Combined Order (as applicable) shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict. In the event that the Plan conflicts with the Plan Supplement or any Restructuring Document, the Plan Supplement or Restructuring Document shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict.

61.Substantial Consummation. On the Effective Date, the Plan shall be deemed to be substantially consummated under Section 1101(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

62.Immediate Effectiveness of this Combined Order. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e), the fourteen (14) day stay of this Combined Order imposed thereby is waived and the Debtors are hereby authorized to consummate the Plan and the transactions contemplated thereby immediately upon the entry of this Combined Order upon this Court’s docket, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article IX of the Plan.

63.Final Order. This Combined Order is a Final Order and the period in which an appeal thereof must be filed shall commence upon its entry.

64.Waiver of Section 341 Meeting and Waiver of Requirement to File Schedules and Statements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Combined Order, the Plan, the Order (I) Extending the Time to File Schedules of Assets and Liabilities, Schedules of Current Income and Expenditures, Schedules of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases, Statements of Financial Affairs, and Rule 2015.3 Financial Reports, and (II) Granting Related Relief [Docket No. 67] (the “Statements Extension Order”), any other order by the Court or any other filings or pleadings made in the Chapter 11 Cases, as of the date of this Combined Order, the requirement that the U.S. Trustee convene a meeting of creditors pursuant to Section 341(a) of the Bankruptcy

Code is hereby waived and the requirement of the Statements Extension Order that the Debtors File with the Court Schedules and Statements (as defined in the Statements Extension Order) by certain dates is permanently excused.

65.Governmental Units. Nothing in this Combined Order, the Plan, or any implementing plan documents (collectively, the “Plan Documents”) discharges, releases, precludes, or enjoins: (a) any liability to any Governmental Unit that is not a Claim; (b) any Claim of a Governmental Unit arising on or after the Confirmation Date; (c) any police or regulatory liability to a Governmental Unit that any Entity would be subject to as the owner or operator of property after the Effective Date; or (d) any liability to a Governmental Unit (including a Claim) on the part of any Person other than the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. Nor shall anything in the Plan Documents enjoin or otherwise bar a Governmental Unit from asserting or enforcing, outside this Court, any liability described in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan Documents, any Governmental Unit’s setoff rights under federal law, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code, and recoupment rights, shall be preserved and are unaffected. Nothing in the Plan Documents (x) divests any tribunal of any jurisdiction it may have under police or regulatory law to interpret the Plan Documents or to adjudicate any defense asserted under the Plan Documents, in each case only to the extent that the Plan Documents pertain to any liability alleged to fall under the language of this paragraph, or (y) shall be construed as a compromise or settlement of any Claim, liability, Cause of Action or Interest of any Governmental Unit. For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtors’ and Reorganized Debtors’ rights and defenses under applicable non-bankruptcy law with respect to the foregoing are fully preserved.

66.Non-Releasing Parties. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, this Combined Order or any documents related hereto or thereto to the contrary, (a) Total E&P USA and (b) any of the current and former affiliates, respective successors, assigns of Total E&P USA and any joint venture or project in which Total E&P USA or any of its affiliates is the operator, partner or member (collectively, the “Non-Releasing Parties”) are deemed to have timely and affirmatively opted out of the Third-Party Releases set forth in Section 8.3 of the Plan with respect to all of their Claims regardless of whether or not each such Non-Releasing Party has submitted an opt-out form and shall not be a “Releasing Party” or a “Released Party” for all purposes under the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, this Combined Order or any documents related thereto; for the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision of this Combined Order, the Plan or the Disclosure Statement, any claim of the Non-Releasing Parties against an insurance carrier for defense and indemnity is neither released, impaired, affected, discharged, nor otherwise modified by this Combined Order, the Plan or the Disclosure Statement to the extent that (i) there is valid and collectible insurance coverage owed to the Non-Releasing Parties as additional insureds, co-assureds, or protective co-assureds for liability arising out of the loss of life incident occurring on the drillship the Pacific Khamsin on August 23, 2020 (the “Incident”), or (ii) there is valid and collectible insurance coverage for the Debtors’ or any non-Debtor Affiliate’s defense, indemnity and hold harmless obligations owed to the Non-Releasing Parties for claims arising out of the Incident, and all rights of the Non-Releasing Parties as additional insureds, co-assureds, or protective co-assureds are fully preserved.

ARTICLE III

CLASSIFICATION, TREATMENT, AND VOTING OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

3.1Classification of Claims and Interests

The Plan constitutes a separate plan proposed by each Debtor within the meaning of Section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except for the Claims addressed in Article II of the Plan, all Claims and Interests are classified in the Classes set forth below in accordance with Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with Section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have not classified Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims, as described in Article II.

A Claim or an Interest is classified in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of that Class and is classified in other Classes to the extent that any portion of the Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of such other Classes. A Claim also is classified in a particular Class for the purpose of receiving distributions under the Plan only to the extent that such Claim is an Allowed Claim in that Class and has not been paid, released, or otherwise satisfied or disallowed by Final Order prior to the Effective Date. For all purposes under the Plan, each Class will contain sub-Classes for each of the Debtors (i.e., there will be nine (9) Classes for each Debtor other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Class 9, which shall exist solely at PDSA); provided that any Class that does not contain any Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests with respect to a particular Debtor will be treated in accordance with Section 3.5 below.

Below is a chart assigning each Class a number for purposes of identifying each separate Class:

The Reorganized Debtors need not provide any further evidence other than the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or the Combined Order (if applicable) with respect to the treatment of the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants under applicable securities laws.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, no Entity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, DTC) shall be entitled to require a legal opinion regarding the validity of any transaction contemplated by the Plan, including, for the avoidance of doubt, whether the New PDC Equity (including any New PDC Equity issuable upon exercise of the New 2L Warrants) and the New 2L Warrants are exempt from registration and/or eligible for DTC book-entry delivery, settlement, and depository services. DTC shall be required to accept and conclusively rely upon the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or the Combined Order (if applicable) in lieu of a legal opinion regarding whether the New PDC Equity (including any New PDC Equity issuable upon exercise of the New 2L Warrants) and the New 2L Warrants are exempt from registration and/or eligible for DTC book-entry delivery, settlement, and depository services.

On the Effective Date, any and all subordination rights or obligations that a Holder of a Claim or Interest may have with respect to any distribution to be made under the Plan will be discharged and terminated, and all actions related to the enforcement of such subordination rights will be enjoined permanently. Accordingly, distributions under the Plan to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests (including, for the avoidance of doubt, distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 3 and 4) will not be subject to turnover or payment to a beneficiary of such terminated subordination rights, or to levy, garnishment, attachment or other legal process by a beneficiary of such terminated subordination rights; provided that any such subordination rights shall be preserved in the event the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) is vacated, the Effective Date does not occur in accordance with the terms hereunder or the Plan is revoked or withdrawn.

any indebtedness or obligation of, or ownership interest in, the Debtors giving rise to any Claim or Interest shall be cancelled and the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall not have any continuing obligations thereunder; and (b) the obligations of the Debtors pursuant, relating, or pertaining to any agreements, indentures, certificates of designation, bylaws, or certificate or articles of incorporation, or similar documents governing the shares, certificates, notes, bonds, purchase rights, options, warrants, or other instruments or documents evidencing or creating any indebtedness or obligation of the Debtors shall be released and discharged; provided that notwithstanding Confirmation or the occurrence of the Effective Date, any such agreement that governs the rights of the Holder of an Allowed Claim shall continue in effect solely for purposes of enabling such Holder to receive distributions under the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim as provided herein; provided, further, that the preceding proviso shall not affect the discharge of Claims or Interests pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Confirmation Order, the Combined Order (if applicable), or the Plan or result in any expense or liability to the Reorganized Debtors, except to the extent set forth in or provided for under the Plan; provided, further, that nothing in this Article shall effect a cancellation of any New PDC Equity, Intercompany Interests, or Intercompany Claims.

Notwithstanding Confirmation, the occurrence of the Effective Date or anything to the contrary herein, only such matters that, by their express terms, survive the termination of the First Lien Notes Indenture, and the Second Lien Notes Indenture shall survive the occurrence of the Effective Date, including the rights of the Trustees and the Agents, as applicable, to expense reimbursement, indemnification, and similar amounts.

4.9Sources for Plan Distributions and Transfers of Funds Among Debtors

The Debtors shall fund distributions under the Plan, with: (a) Cash on hand, including Cash from operations; (b) the proceeds of the Exit Facility and the loans thereunder; (c) the New PDC Equity; and (d) the New 2L Warrants. Cash payments to be made pursuant to the Plan will be made by the Reorganized Debtors. The Reorganized Debtors will be entitled to transfer funds between and among themselves as they determine to be necessary or appropriate to enable the Reorganized Debtors to make the payments and distributions required by the Plan. Except as set forth herein, and to the extent consistent with any applicable limitations set forth in any applicable post-Effective Date agreement (including the Exit Facility Documents and New Organizational Documents), any changes in intercompany account balances resulting from such transfers will be accounted for and settled in accordance with the Debtors’ historical intercompany account settlement practices and will not violate the terms of the Plan.

From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, subject to any applicable limitations set forth in any post-Effective Date agreement (including the Exit Facility Documents and New Organizational Documents), shall have the right and authority without further order of the Bankruptcy Court to raise additional capital and obtain additional financing as the boards of directors of the applicable Reorganized Debtors deem appropriate.

4.10Issuance of New 2L Warrants

On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, only to the extent required to provide for distributions, the applicable Reorganized Debtor will issue New 2L Warrants to Holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims.

All of the New 2L Warrants issued pursuant to the Plan shall be duly authorized without the need for any further corporate action and without any further action by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable. Each distribution and issuance referred to in this paragraph shall be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Plan, and the New 2L Warrant Agreements 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 Entity receiving such distribution or issuance without the need for execution by any party thereto other than the applicable Reorganized Debtor(s). Distributions of the New 2L Warrants may be made by delivery or book-entry transfer thereof by the Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee(s) in accordance with this Plan, the New Organizational Documents, or the New 2L Warrant Agreements, as applicable.

The New 2L Warrants shall be distributed to Holders of Second Lien Notes Claims in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Plan. The New 2L Warrants shall include Black-Scholes protection (assuming 45% volatility) (but no other cashless exercise option). Other than the Black-Scholes protection described in the foregoing sentence, the New 2L Warrants shall include customary anti-dilution protection for stock splits, stock dividends, consolidation, reverse-stock splits, and reclassifications, in each case, not involving third parties or a change of control transaction.

All matters provided for in the Plan involving the corporate structure of the Debtors, and any corporate action required by the Debtors in connection therewith, shall be deemed to have occurred on, and shall be in effect as of, the Effective Date, without any requirement of further action by the security Holders, directors, managers, authorized persons, or officers of the Debtors. On or (as applicable) before the Effective Date, the appropriate officers of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be authorized and (as applicable) directed to issue, execute, and deliver the agreements, documents, securities, and instruments contemplated by the Plan (or necessary or desirable to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions consistent with the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement) in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, including the Exit Facility Documents, New 2L Warrants Agreements, and any and all other agreements, documents, Securities, and instruments relating to the foregoing, to the extent not previously authorized by the Bankruptcy Court. The authorizations and approvals contemplated by this Article 4.11 shall be effective notwithstanding any requirements under non-bankruptcy law.

4.12Corporate Existence

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or any agreement, instrument, or other document incorporated in the Plan or the Plan Supplement (including the Restructuring Transactions, the New Organizational Documents, the Exit Facility Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements), on the Effective Date, each Debtor, other than PDSA, shall continue to exist after the Effective Date as a separate corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or other form of Entity, as the case may be, with all the powers of a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or other form of Entity, as the case may be, 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 by-laws (or other analogous formation documents) in effect before the Effective Date, except to the extent such certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or other analogous formation documents) is amended and restated, converted or otherwise modified by the Plan, the Plan Supplement (including the Restructuring Transaction Steps, the New Organizational Documents, the Exit Facility Documents and the New 2L Warrants Agreements), or otherwise, and to the extent any such document is amended, such document is deemed to be amended pursuant to the Plan and requires no further action or approval (other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law).

As provided in the Restructuring Transaction Steps, legal title to all Existing Lux Interests shall be deemed transferred to the Estate Representative or another non-Debtor Affiliate (the “Sole Owner”). Upon transfer of all Existing Lux Interests to the Estate Representative or the Sole Owner, the following (without limitation) shall occur: (i) the Debtors shall serve an instruction letter to DTC, notifying DTC of instructions with respect to the cancellation of (and distribution of 91.5% of the New PDC Equity to Holders of) First

Lien Notes and the cancellation of (and distribution of 8.5% of the New PDC Equity and New 2L Warrants to Holders of) Second Lien Notes; (ii) the Debtors shall serve an instruction letter to DTC (or AST) notifying DTC (or AST) of the transfer of the Existing Lux Interests to the Estate Representative or Sole Owner and deeming the Existing Lux Interests worthless; (iii) all the Existing Lux Interests will be deemed transferred and owned by a single shareholder (i.e., the Estate Representative or the Sole Owner); (iv) the New Organizational Documents shall automatically be amended to reduce the number of directors of PDSA to one director; (v) the resignation of all directors of PDSA, other than Bernie G.

To the extent required under the Plan or applicable non-bankruptcy law, the Reorganized Debtors will file their respective New Organizational Documents with the applicable Secretaries of State and/or other applicable authorities in their respective states, provinces, or countries of incorporation in accordance with the corporate laws of the respective states, provinces, or countries of incorporation. The New Organizational Documents shall, among other things: (a) authorize the issuance of the New PDC Equity; and (b) pursuant to and only to the extent required by Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, include a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity Securities. Subject to Article 4.14 of the Plan, each Reorganized Debtor may amend and restate its certificate of incorporation and other formation and constituent documents as permitted by the laws of its respective jurisdiction of formation and the terms of the New Organizational Documents, the New Operating Agreement, the Governance Term Sheet, and the Plan.

4.14Indemnification Provisions in Organizational Documents

As of the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor’s bylaws shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, provide for the indemnification, defense, reimbursement, exculpation, and/or limitation of liability of, and advancement of fees and expenses to, current and former directors, officers, equity Holders, managers, members, employees, accountants, investment bankers, attorneys, other professionals, agents of the Debtors, and such current and former directors’, officers’, and managers’ respective Affiliates (each of the foregoing solely in their capacity as such) at least to the same extent as set forth in the Indemnification Provisions, against any claims or Causes of Action whether direct or derivative, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed, or contingent, disputed or undisputed, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, asserted or unasserted. None of the Reorganized Debtors shall amend and/or restate its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or similar organizational document after the Effective Date to terminate or materially adversely affect (a) any Indemnification Provision or (b) the rights of such directors, officers, equity Holders, managers, members, employees, accountants, investment bankers, attorneys, other professionals, agents of the Debtors, and such current and former directors’, officers’, and managers’ respective Affiliates (each of the foregoing solely in their capacity as such) referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.

On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, and the officers and members of the boards of directors and managers (or other governing body) thereof, shall be 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, the Exit Facility Documents, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements, as applicable, 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 under the Plan.

4.16Section 1146(a) Exemption

To the fullest extent permitted by Section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, any transfers (whether from a Debtor to a Reorganized Debtor or to any other Person) of property under the Plan (including the Restructuring Transactions) or pursuant to: (a) the issuance, distribution, transfer, or exchange of any debt, equity security, or other interest in the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors; (b) the creation, modification, consolidation, termination, refinancing, and/or recording of any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security interest, or the securing of additional indebtedness by such or other means; (c) the making, assignment, or recording of any lease or sublease; (d) the grant of collateral as security for any or all of the Exit Facility, as applicable; or (e) 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 (including the Restructuring Transactions), 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, regulatory filing or recording fee, sales or use tax, or other similar tax or governmental assessment. Upon entry of the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable), the appropriate state or local governmental officials or agents shall forego the collection of any such tax or governmental assessment and accept for filing and recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax, recordation fee, or governmental assessment. All filing or recording officers (or any other Person with authority over any of the foregoing), wherever located and by whomever appointed, shall comply with the requirements of Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall forego the collection of any such tax or governmental assessment, and shall accept for filing and recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax or governmental assessment.

4.17Reserved

4.18Preservation of Causes of Action

Unless any Causes of Action against an Entity are expressly waived, relinquished, exculpated, released, compromised, or settled in the Plan, including pursuant to Article VIII of the Plan or a Final Order, in accordance with Section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue any and all Causes of Action, whether arising before or after the Petition Date, including any actions specifically enumerated in the Plan Supplement, and the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to commence, prosecute, or settle such Causes of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date. No Entity may rely on the absence of a specific reference in the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action, including Avoidance Actions, against them as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action against them. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity, including Avoidance Actions, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Unless any Causes of Action against an Entity are expressly waived, relinquished, exculpated, released, compromised, or settled in the Plan, including pursuant to Article VIII of the Plan or a Final Order, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all Causes of Action, for later adjudication, and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including the doctrines of res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable, or otherwise), or laches, shall apply to such Causes of Action upon, after, or as a consequence of the Confirmation or Consummation. For the avoidance of doubt, in no instance will any Cause of Action preserved pursuant to this Article 4.18 include any claim or Cause of Action with respect to, or against, a Released Party.

In accordance with Section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any Causes of Action preserved pursuant to the first paragraph of this Article 4.18 that a Debtor may hold against any Entity shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors. The applicable Reorganized Debtor, through its authorized agents or representatives, shall retain and may exclusively enforce any and all such Causes of Action. The Reorganized Debtors shall have the exclusive right, authority, and discretion to determine and to initiate, file, prosecute, enforce,

abandon, settle, compromise, release, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any such Causes of Action, or to decline to do any of the foregoing, without the consent or approval of any third party or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

4.19Payment of Crossover Group Representative Fees and Expenses

On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall pay or reimburse all Crossover Group Representatives Fees in accordance with the applicable Fee Letters, without the need for application by any Crossover Group Representatives to the Bankruptcy Court, and without notice and a hearing pursuant to Section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

ARTICLE V

TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

5.1Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Except as otherwise provided herein, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease shall be deemed assumed, without the need for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, unless such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (a) was previously assumed or rejected; (b) was previously expired or terminated pursuant to its own terms; (c) is the subject of a motion to assume or assume and assign Filed on or before the Confirmation Date; or (d) is designated specifically, or by category, as an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease on the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. The assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases hereunder may include the assignment of certain of such contracts or leases to Affiliates. The Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) will constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the above-described assumptions and assignments, all pursuant to Sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and effective on the occurrence of the Effective Date.

Except as otherwise provided herein or agreed to by the Debtors and the applicable counterparty, each assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements related thereto, and all rights related thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any other interests. To the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed pursuant to the Plan restricts or prevents, or purports to restrict or prevent, or is breached or deemed breached by, the assumption of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including any “change of control” provision), then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases at any time through and including 45 days after the Effective Date. Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith.

5.2Cure of Defaults for Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay Cures, if any, on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, with the amount and timing of payment of any such Cure dictated by the Debtors ordinary course of business. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, all requests for payment of Cure that differ from the ordinary course amounts paid or proposed to be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to a counterparty must be Filed with the Solicitation Agent on or before 30 days after the Effective Date. Any such request that is not timely Filed shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection

by the Reorganized Debtors or any other party in interest or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Any Cure shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged upon payment by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of the Cure in the Debtors ordinary course of business; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Reorganized Debtors from paying any Cure Claim despite the failure of the relevant counterparty to File such request for payment of such Cure. The Reorganized Debtors also may settle any Cure Claim without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, any objection to the assumption of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease under the Plan must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before 30 days after the Effective Date. Any such objection will be scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court at the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’, as applicable, first scheduled omnibus hearing for which such objection is timely Filed. Any counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that fails to timely object to the proposed assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease will be deemed to have consented to such assumption.

If there is any dispute regarding any Cure, 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 any other matter pertaining to assumption, then payment of Cure shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable after entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute, approving such assumption (and, if applicable, assignment), or as may be agreed upon by the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the counterparty to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease.

Assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise and full payment of any applicable Cure pursuant to this Article 5.2, in the amount and at the time dictated by the Debtors’ ordinary course of business, shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Cures, Claims, or defaults, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease at any time prior to the effective date of assumption. Any and all Proofs of Claim based upon Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that have been assumed in the Chapter 11 Cases, including pursuant to the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable), and for which any Cure has been fully paid pursuant to this Article 5.2, in the amount and at the time dictated by the Debtors ordinary course of business, shall be deemed disallowed and expunged as of the Effective Date without the need for any objection thereto or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

In the event of an assumption, or an assumption and assignment, of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that is in default under this Plan, at least twenty-one (21) days prior to the Plan Objection Deadline, the Debtors will File and serve upon counterparties to such Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases, a notice of the proposed assumption, or proposed assumption and assignment, which will: (a) list the applicable Cure Claim amount, if any; (b) if applicable, identify the party to which the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease will be assigned; (c) describe the procedures for filing objections thereto; and (d) explain the process by which related disputes will be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court.

Any objection by a counterparty to such an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to a proposed assumption, or proposed assumption and assignment under this Plan, or any related Cure Claim amount, must be Filed, served and actually received by the Debtors prior to the Plan Objection Deadline (notwithstanding anything in a proof of Claim to the contrary). Any such counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that fails to object timely to the proposed assumption, or proposed assumption and assignment, or Cure Claim amount will be deemed to have consented to such matters and will be deemed to have forever released and waived any objection to such proposed assumption, proposed assumption and assignment, and Cure Claim amount. The Confirmation Order will constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving each proposed assumption, or proposed assumption and assignment, of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to Sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date.

5.3Rejection Damages Claims

In the event that the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease by any of the Debtors results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, a Claim for such damages shall be

forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their respective properties or interests in property as agents, successors, or assigns, unless a Proof of Claim is Filed with the Solicitation Agent and served upon counsel for the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the Consenting Creditors no later than thirty (30) days after the earlier of (a) the Effective Date or (b) the date of entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order or if applicable, the Combined Order) approving such rejection of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease. Any such Claims, to the extent Allowed, shall be classified as General Unsecured Claims and shall be treated in accordance with Article III of this Plan.

5.4Indemnification

On and as of the Effective Date, the Indemnification Provisions will be assumed and irrevocable and will survive the effectiveness of the Plan, and the New Organizational Documents will provide to the fullest extent provided by the law for the indemnification, defense, reimbursement, exculpation, and/or limitation of liability of, and advancement of fees and expenses to the Debtors’ and the Reorganized Debtors’ current and former directors, officers, equity Holders, managers, members, employees, accountants, investment bankers, attorneys, other professionals, agents of the Debtors, and such current and former directors’, officers’, and managers’ respective Affiliates (each of the foregoing solely in their capacity as such) at least to the same extent as the Indemnification Provisions, against any Claims or Causes of Action whether direct or derivative, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, disputed or undisputed, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, asserted or unasserted, and, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, none of the Reorganized Debtors will amend and/or restate the New Organizational Documents before or after the Effective Date to terminate or adversely affect any of the Indemnification Provisions.

5.5Insurance Policies

Each D&O Liability Insurance Policy (including, without limitation, any “tail policy” and all agreements, documents, or instruments related thereto) shall be deemed assumed, without the need for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall not terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under any D&O Liability Insurance Policy (including, without limitation, any “tail policy” and all agreements, documents, or instruments related thereto) in effect as of September 1, 2020 or as extended by a “tail policy” obtained after September 1, 2020 but before the Petition Date. Any current and former directors, officers, managers, and employees of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any time before or after the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policy for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such directors, officers, managers, and employees remain in such positions after the Effective Date subject to the terms of such policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall retain the ability to supplement such D&O Liability Insurance Policy as the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may deem necessary.

The Debtors shall continue to satisfy their insurance policies in full and continue such programs in the ordinary course of business. Each of the Debtors’ insurance policies, and any agreements, documents, or instruments relating thereto shall be treated as Executory Contracts under the Plan. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date: (a) the Debtors shall be deemed to have assumed all such insurance policies and any agreements, documents, and instruments relating to coverage of all insured Claims; and (b) such insurance policies and any agreements, documents, or instruments relating thereto shall revest in the applicable Reorganized Debtor(s).

Entry of the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Reorganized Debtors’ assumption of all such insurance policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, Confirmation of the Plan shall not discharge, impair, or otherwise modify any indemnity obligations assumed by the foregoing assumption of insurance policies and each such indemnity obligation will be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that has

been assumed by the Reorganized Debtors under the Plan as to which no Proof of Claim need be filed, and shall survive the Effective Date.

5.6Contracts and Leases After the Petition Date

Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, including any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, will be performed by the applicable Debtor or Reorganized Debtor liable thereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such contracts and leases that are not rejected under the Plan shall survive and remain unaffected by entry of the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable).

5.7Reservation of Rights

Nothing contained in the Plan or the Plan Supplement shall constitute an admission by the Debtors or any other party that any contract or lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have 45 days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

5.8Nonoccurrence 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 Unexpired Leases pursuant to Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless such deadline(s) have expired.

To the extent any Allowed Priority Tax Claim is not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim shall be paid in full in Cash in accordance with the terms of any agreement between the Debtors and the Holder of such Claim or as may be due and payable under applicable non-bankruptcy law or in the ordinary course of business. A Distribution Date shall occur no more frequently than once in every 90 day period after the Effective Date, as necessary, in the Reorganized Debtors’ sole discretion.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay to the Distribution Agent all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such Distribution Agent without the need for any approvals, authorizations, actions, or consents, except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. The Distribution Agent shall submit detailed invoices to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, for all fees and expenses for which the Distribution Agent seeks reimbursement, and the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay those amounts that they deem reasonable, and shall object in writing to those fees and expenses, if any, that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, deem to be unreasonable. In the event that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, object to all or any portion of the amounts requested to be reimbursed in a Distribution Agent’s invoice, the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and such Distribution Agent shall endeavor, in good faith, to reach mutual agreement on the amount of the appropriate payment of such disputed fees and/or expenses. In the event that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and a Distribution Agent are unable to resolve any differences regarding disputed fees or expenses, either party shall be authorized to move to have such dispute heard by the Bankruptcy Court.

6.3Special Rules for Distributions to Holders of Disputed Claims

Notwithstanding any provision otherwise in the Plan and except as otherwise agreed by the relevant parties: (a) no partial payments and no partial distributions shall be made with respect to a Disputed Claim until all such disputes in connection with such Disputed Claim have been resolved by settlement or Final Order; and (b) any Entity that holds both an Allowed Claim and a Disputed Claim shall not receive any distribution on the Allowed Claim unless and until all objections to the Disputed Claim have been resolved by settlement or Final Order or the Claims have been Allowed or expunged.

6.4Delivery of Distributions

(a)

Record Date for Distributions

On the Distribution Record Date, the various transfer registers for each Class of Claims entitled to distributions under the Plan as maintained by the Debtors or their respective agents shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record Holders of any Claims or Interests. The Distribution Agent shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of Claims or Interests occurring on or after the Distribution Record Date. In addition, with respect to payment of any Cure amounts or disputes over any Cure amounts, neither the Debtors nor the Distribution Agent shall have any obligation to recognize or deal with any party other than the non-Debtor party to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease as of the Effective Date, even if such non-Debtor party has sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred its Claim for a Cure amount.

(b)

Distribution Process

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Distribution Agent shall make distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims at the address for each such Holder as indicated on the applicable register or in the Debtors’ records as of the date of any such distribution (as applicable), including the address set forth in any Proof of Claim filed by that Holder; provided that the manner of such distributions shall be determined at the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors.

(c)

Delivery of Distributions on First Lien Notes Claims

The First Lien Notes Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be the Holder of all Allowed First Lien Notes Claims for purposes of distributions to be made hereunder, and all distributions on account of such Allowed Claims shall be made to the First Lien Notes Indenture Trustee or to the holders of First Lien Notes

as authorized by the First Lien Notes Indenture Trustee. As soon as practicable following compliance with the requirements set forth in Article VI of this Plan, the First Lien Notes Indenture Trustee shall arrange to deliver or direct the delivery of such distributions to or on behalf of the Holders of Allowed First Lien Notes Claims in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Notes Indenture and the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, and without limiting the exculpation and release provisions of the Plan, the Distribution Agent shall not have any liability to any Entity with respect to distributions made or directed to be made by the First Lien Notes Indenture Trustee.

Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Holder of Allowed First Lien Notes Claim and the Debtors, the Debtors intend that, to the extent practicable, the New PDC Equity will be eligible to be issued in book entry form, except with respect to persons that may be deemed underwriters under Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (who are obligated to make themselves known to the Debtors), and that DTC, or its nominee, will be the holder of record of such New PDC Equity. The ownership interest of each Holder of such New PDC Equity, and transfers of ownership interests therein, is expected to be recorded on the records of the direct and indirect participants in DTC.

(d)

Delivery of Distributions on Second Lien Notes Claims

The Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be the Holder of all Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims for purposes of distributions to be made hereunder, and all distributions on account of such Allowed Claims shall be made to the Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee or to the holders of Second Lien Notes as authorized by the Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee. As soon as practicable following compliance with the requirements set forth in Article VI of this Plan, the Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee shall arrange to deliver or direct the delivery of such distributions to or on behalf of the Holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Notes Indenture and the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, and without limiting the exculpation and release provisions of the Plan, the Distribution Agent shall not have any liability to any Entity with respect to distributions made or directed to be made by the Second Lien Notes Indenture Trustee.

Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Holder of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claim and the Debtors, the Debtors intend that, to the extent practicable, the New PDC Equity and the New 2L Warrants will be eligible to be issued in book entry form, except with respect to persons that may be deemed underwriters under Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (who are obligated to make themselves known to the Debtors), and that DTC, or its nominee, will be the holder of record of such New PDC Equity and New 2L Warrants. The ownership interest of each Holder of such New PDC Equity and New 2L Warrants, and transfers of ownership interests therein, is expected to be recorded on the records of the direct and indirect participants in DTC.

(e)

Compliance Matters

In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Reorganized Debtors and the Distribution Agent shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on them 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, the Reorganized Debtors and the Distribution Agent shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under the Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes and withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions; provided that, the Reorganized Debtors and the Distribution Agent, as applicable, shall request appropriate documentation from the applicable distributees and allow such distributees a reasonable amount of time to respond. The Reorganized 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. Any amounts withheld or reallocated pursuant to this Article 6.4(e) shall be treated as if distributed to the Holder of the Allowed Claim.

(f)

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate

Except as otherwise provided in a Bankruptcy Court order, as of the Effective Date, any Claim asserted in currency other than U.S. dollars shall be automatically deemed converted to the equivalent U.S. dollar value using the exchange rate for the applicable currency as published in The Wall Street Journal, National Edition, on the Effective Date.

(g)

Fractional, Undeliverable, and Unclaimed Distributions

(1)

Fractional Distributions. Whenever any distribution of fractional shares of New PDC Equity or fractional units of New 2L Warrants would otherwise be required pursuant to the Plan, the actual distribution shall reflect a rounding down of such fraction to the nearest share or whole dollar. Any Cash distributions shall reflect a rounding down of such cash to the nearest penny. For the avoidance of doubt, DTC shall be considered a single holder for distribution purposes.

(2)

Undeliverable Distributions. If any distribution to a Holder of an Allowed Claim is returned to the Distribution Agent as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Distribution Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then-current address or other necessary information for delivery, at which time all currently due missed distributions shall be made to such Holder on the next Distribution Date. Undeliverable distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable, such distribution reverts to the Reorganized Debtors, or is cancelled pursuant to Article 6.4(g)(4) below, and shall not be supplemented with any interest, dividends, or other accruals of any kind.

(3)

Failure to Present Checks. Checks issued by the Reorganized Debtors (or their Distribution Agent) on account of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not negotiated within 90 days after the issuance of such check. 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.

Any Holder of an Allowed Claim holding an un-negotiated check that does not request reissuance of such un-negotiated check within 180 days of the Effective Date shall have its Claim for such un-negotiated check discharged and be discharged and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from asserting any such Claim against the Reorganized Debtors or their property.

Within 90 days after the mailing or other delivery of any such distribution checks, notwithstanding applicable escheatment laws, all such distributions shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors. Nothing contained herein shall require the Reorganized Debtors to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim.

(4)

Reversion. Any distribution under the Plan that is an Unclaimed Distribution for a period of six months after distribution shall be deemed unclaimed property under Section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and such Unclaimed Distribution shall revest in the applicable Reorganized Debtor and, to the extent such Unclaimed Distribution is New PDC Equity, shall be deemed cancelled. Upon such revesting, the Claim of the Holder or its successors with respect to such property shall be cancelled, discharged, and forever barred notwithstanding any applicable federal or state escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property laws, or any provisions in any document governing the distribution that is an Unclaimed Distribution, to the contrary.

(h)

Surrender of Cancelled Instruments or Securities

On the Effective Date, each Holder of a Certificate shall be deemed to have surrendered such Certificate to the Distribution Agent or a Servicer (to the extent the relevant Claim is governed by an agreement and administered by a Servicer). 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 vis-à-vis one another with respect to such Certificate. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, this Article 6.4(h) shall not apply to any Claims and Interests Reinstated pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

(i)

Minimum Distributions

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors and the Distribution Agents shall not be required to make distributions or payments of less than $50 (whether Cash or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, DTC shall be considered a single holder for distribution purposes, including minimum distribution purposes.

6.5Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties

(a)

Claims Paid by Third Parties

A Claim shall be correspondingly reduced, and the applicable portion of such Claim shall be disallowed without an objection to such Claim having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives a payment on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor. To the extent a Holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within fourteen days of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the Reorganized Debtors to the extent the Holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the Plan exceeds the amount of such Claim as of the date of any such distribution under the Plan. The failure of such Holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the Holder owing the Reorganized Debtors annualized interest at the Federal Judgment Rate on such amount owed for each Business Day after the fourteen-day grace period specified above until the amount is repaid.

(b)

Claims Payable by Insurance Carriers

No distributions under the Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Debtors’ insurance policies until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy in full or in part a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claim objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

(c)

Applicability of Insurance Policies

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including Article VIII), nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a release, settlement, satisfaction, compromise, or waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or any other Entity may hold against any other Entity, including insurers, under any policies of insurance or applicable indemnity, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses, held by such insurers.

6.6No Postpetition or Default Interest on Claims

Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, and notwithstanding any documents that govern the Debtors’ prepetition funded indebtedness to the contrary, (a) postpetition and/or default interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims and (b) no Holder of a Claim

shall be entitled to: (i) interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any such Claim; or (ii) interest at the contract default rate, as applicable.

6.7Setoffs

Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, each Reorganized Debtor, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code), applicable non-bankruptcy law, or as may be agreed to by the Holder of a Claim, may set off against any Allowed Claim and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim (before any distribution is made on account of such Allowed Claim), 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, 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 pursuant to the Plan shall constitute a waiver or release by such Reorganized Debtor of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor may possess against such Holder. In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to set off any such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable), 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 otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

6.8Allocation Between Principal and Accrued Interest

Except as otherwise provided herein, the aggregate consideration paid to Holders with respect to their Allowed Claims shall be treated pursuant to the Plan as allocated first to the principal amount of such Allowed Claims (to the extent thereof) and, thereafter, to interest, if any, on such Allowed Claim accrued through the Effective Date.

ARTICLE VII

PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

This Article VII shall not apply to First Lien Notes Claims and Second Lien Notes Claims, which Claims shall be Allowed in full and will not be subject to any avoidance, reductions, set off, offset, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, contractual or otherwise), counterclaims, cross-claims, defenses, disallowance, impairment, objection or any other challenges under any applicable law or regulation by any Person or Entity.

7.1Proofs of Claim / Disputed Claims Process

In light of the Impaired status of all General Unsecured Claims under the Plan and the fact that Holders of such Claims are not entitled to any distribution under the Plan, Holders of General Unsecured Claims need not file Proofs of Claim. Holders of Other Secured Claims and Other Priority Claims shall be required to File Proofs of Claim by the Claims Bar Date.

On or before the Plan Supplement Filing Date, the Debtors shall include in the Plan Supplement and serve a notice of proposed claim amount upon the applicable Holders of Other Secured Claims and Other Priority Claims, which will: (a) list the Claim amount; (b) describe the procedures for filing a Proof of Claim; and (c) explain the process by which related disputes will be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court. Such procedures will, among other things, provide that, in the event that a Holder of an Other Secured Claim or Other Priority Claim objects to the proposed claim amount disclosed by the Debtors in the aforementioned notice, such Holder shall be required to File a Proof of Claim by the Claims Bar Date asserting the actual amount it believes it is owed. Any such Holder that fails to file a Proof of Claim by the Claims Bar Date set forth in the notice will be deemed to have consented to the claim amount proposed by the Debtors and will be deemed to have forever released and waived any objection to such amount.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7.1, (a) all Claims against the Debtors that result from the Debtors’ rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, (b) disputes regarding the amount of any Cure pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (c) Claims that the Debtors seek to have determined by the Bankruptcy Court, shall in all cases be determined by the Bankruptcy Court. From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may satisfy, dispute, settle, or otherwise compromise any Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

7.2Objections to Claims

Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under the Plan, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or any other party in interest shall be entitled to object to Claims and Interests. Any objections to Claims, other than Administrative Claims, shall be served and filed (a) on or before the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day following the later of (i) the Effective Date and (ii) the date that a Proof of Claim is filed or amended or a Claim is otherwise asserted or amended in writing by or on behalf of a Holder of such Claim, or (b) such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court upon motion filed by the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or Reorganized Debtors. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided herein, from and after the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses such Debtor had immediately prior to the Effective Date with respect to any Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest, including the Causes of Action retained pursuant to Article 4.19 of the Plan.

7.3Estimation of Claims

Before or after the Effective Date, the Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Creditors) or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may (but are not required to) at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Disputed Claim that is contingent or unliquidated pursuant to Section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code for any reason, regardless of whether any party previously has objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to estimate any such Claim, including during the litigation of any objection to any Claim or during the appeal relating to such objection; provided that if the Bankruptcy Court resolves the Allowed amount of a Claim, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall not be permitted to seek an estimation of such Claim. Notwithstanding any provision otherwise in the Plan, a Claim that has been expunged from the Claims register, but that either is subject to appeal or has not been the subject of a Final Order, shall be deemed to be estimated at zero dollars, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount shall constitute a maximum limitation on such Claim for all purposes under the Plan (including for purposes of distributions), and the relevant Reorganized Debtor may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate distribution on such Claim.

7.4No Distribution Pending Allowance

If an objection to a Claim is Filed, as set forth in Article 7.2, no payment or distribution provided under the Plan shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

7.5Distribution After Allowance

To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions (if any) shall be made to the Holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. As soon as practicable after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Distribution Agent shall provide to the Holder of such Claim the distribution (if any) to which such Holder is entitled under the Plan as of the Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim unless required under applicable bankruptcy law.

7.6No Interest

Unless otherwise specifically provided for herein or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim or right. Additionally, and without limiting the foregoing, interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Disputed Claim with respect to the period from the Effective Date to the date a final distribution is made on account of such Disputed Claim, if and when such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

7.7Adjustment to Claims Without Objection

Any Claim that has been paid or satisfied, or any Claim that has been amended or superseded, may be adjusted on the Claims register by the Reorganized Debtors without a claims objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

7.8Disallowance of Claims

All Claims of any Entity from which property is sought by the Debtors under Sections 542, 543, 550, or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors allege is a transferee of a transfer that is avoidable under Sections 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be disallowed if: (a) the Entity, on the one hand, and the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, on the other hand, agree or the Bankruptcy Court has determined by Final Order that such Entity or transferee is liable to turn over any property or monies under any of the aforementioned Sections of the Bankruptcy Code; and (b) such Entity or transferee has failed to turn over such property by the date set forth in such agreement or Final Order. All Claims filed on account of an indemnification obligation to a director, officer, or employee shall be deemed satisfied and expunged from the Claims register as of the Effective Date to the extent such indemnification obligation is assumed (or honored or reaffirmed, as the case may be) pursuant to the Plan, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. All Claims filed on account of an employee benefit shall be deemed satisfied and expunged from the Claims register as of the Effective Date to the extent the Reorganized Debtors elect to honor such employee benefit, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Except as provided herein or otherwise agreed, any and all Proofs of Claim filed after the Claims Bar Date 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, and Holders of such Claims shall not receive any distributions on account of such Claims.

ARTICLE VIII

EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN

8.1Discharge of Claims and Termination of Interests; Compromise and Settlement of Claims, Interests, and Controversies

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, or other agreement or document created pursuant to the Plan (including the Exit Facility Documents, the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the New Organizational Documents, the New Operating Agreement, and the New 2L Warrants Agreements): (a) the distributions, rights, and treatment that are provided in the Plan shall be in complete satisfaction, discharge, and release, effective as of the Effective Date, of any and all Claims (including any Intercompany Claims resolved or compromised (consistent with the Restructuring Transactions) after the Effective Date by the Reorganized Debtors), Interests (including any Intercompany Interests Reinstated or cancelled and released (consistent with the Restructuring Transactions) after the Effective Date by the Reorganized Debtors), and Causes of Action against the Debtors of any nature whatsoever including demands, liabilities, and Causes of Action that arose before the Effective Date, any liability (including withdrawal liability) to the extent such liability relates to services performed by employees of the Debtors prior to the Effective Date and that arises from a termination of employment, any contingent or non-contingent liability on account of representations or warranties issued on or before the Effective Date, all debts of the kind specified

in Sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, any interest accrued on Claims or Interests from and after the Petition Date, and all other liabilities against, liens on, obligations of, rights against, and Interests in, the Debtors or any of their assets or properties, (b) the Plan shall bind all Holders of Claims and Interests, (c) all Claims and Interests shall be satisfied, discharged, and released in full, and the Debtors’ liability with respect thereto shall be extinguished completely, including any liability of the kind specified under Section 502(g) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (d) all Entities shall be precluded from asserting against the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, their successors and assigns, and their assets and properties any other Claims or Interests based upon any documents, instruments, or any act or omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date, in each case regardless of whether or not: (i) a Proof of Claim based upon such debt or right 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; (iii) the Holder of such a Claim or Interest has accepted, rejected or failed to vote to accept or reject the Plan; or (iv) any property shall have been distributed or retained pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claims and Interests. The Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) shall be a judicial determination of the discharge of all Claims and Interests subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date.

Pursuant to 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, Interests, and controversies relating to the contractual, legal, and subordination rights that a Holder of a Claim or Interest may have with respect to any Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, or any distribution to be made on account of such Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest. The entry of the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the compromise or settlement of all such Claims, Interests, and controversies, as well as a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, and Holders of Claims and Interests and is fair, equitable, and reasonable. In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may compromise and settle Claims against the Debtors and their Estates and Causes of Action against other Entities; provided that nothing in this Article shall be interpreted to interfere with (a) the transfer of legal title to all Existing Lux Interests to the Estate Representative or the Sole Owner to the extent as required by the Restructuring Transaction Steps and (b) the actions to be taken by the Estate Representative, the Designated Representatives, or the Sole Owner to dissolve PDSA and obtain a discharge of duties on behalf of PDSA’s board of directors, as set forth in Article 4.12 of the Plan, to the extent as required by the Restructuring Transaction Steps.

The Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable) shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of the Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is: (a) valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms; (b) integral to the Plan and may not be deleted or modified without the Debtors’ and Required Consenting First Lien Creditors’ prior consent, consistent with the terms set forth herein; and (c) nonseverable and mutually dependent.

12.10Votes Solicited in Good Faith

Upon entry of the Confirmation Order or the Combined Order (if applicable), the Debtors will be deemed to have solicited votes on the Plan in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code, and pursuant to Section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors and each of the Consenting Creditors and each of their respective Affiliates, agents, representatives, members, principals, equity holders (regardless of whether such interests are held directly or indirectly), officers, directors, managers, employees, advisors, and attorneys will be deemed to have participated in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code in the offer, issuance, sale, and purchase of Securities offered and sold under the Plan, and, therefore, neither any of such parties or individuals or the Reorganized Debtors will have any liability for the violation of any

applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of votes on the Plan or the offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of the Securities offered and sold under the Plan.

12.11Dissolution of the Committee

In the event a statutory committee of the Debtors’ unsecured creditors is appointed by the U.S. Trustee, such official committee shall dissolve, and the members thereof shall be released and discharged from all rights and duties arising from, or related to, the Chapter 11 Cases on the Effective Date; provided that such official committee shall be deemed to remain in existence solely with respect to, and shall not be heard on any issue except, applications filed by the Retained Professionals pursuant to Sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code.

12.12Closing 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.

12.13Waiver or Estoppel

Each Holder of a Claim or an Interest shall be deemed to have waived any right to assert any argument, including 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 or their counsel, or any other Entity, if such agreement was not disclosed in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Restructuring Support Agreement, or papers filed with the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Confirmation Date.
