Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 8-K, accompanying exhibits, and other statements that we may make, contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and include statements about our expectations for the timing and execution of our restructuring plan, our future financial condition and future business plans and expectations, the effect of, and our expectations with respect to, the operation of our business, adequacy of financial resources and commitments and operating expectations during the pendency of our court proceedings. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management, but are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results and/or the timing of events to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including, among others: we filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and are subject to risks and uncertainties; our ability to implement the Plan and to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 proceedings prosecuted from time to; operating under Chapter 11 may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies; our employees face considerable uncertainty due to the Chapter 11 proceedings; we may suffer from a protracted restructuring; our ability to emerge from Chapter 11 and operate profitably thereafter will depend on increasing our revenue, lowering our costs, and obtaining sufficient financing or other capital to operate successfully; we have substantial liquidity needs and, due to our current Chapter 11 proceedings, may not be able to obtain any equity or debt financings in the capital markets for the foreseeable future; we may be subject to claims that will not be discharged in the Chapter 11 proceedings; our restructuring efforts through the Chapter 11 proceedings may be expensive, take resources and distract management; we are in the process of rejecting and abandoning a significant portion of our helicopter fleet through Chapter 11 proceedings, which may result in an inability to quickly respond to new opportunities and a significant loss of market share and profit margins; our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, our independent registered public accounting firm has raised substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern, and we have not included any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty; we have a history of net losses; our substantial level of indebtedness, operating lease commitments, purchase and other commitments could materially adversely affect our ability to fulfill our obligations under our debt agreements, our ability to react to changes in our business and our ability to incur additional debt to fund future needs; all flights with the aircraft type H225 and AS332 L2 have been temporarily grounded which may cause a material and adverse impact to our financial viability; operating helicopters involves a degree of inherent risk and we are exposed to the risk of losses from safety incidents; if we are unable to mitigate potential losses through a robust safety management and insurance coverage program, our financial condition would be jeopardized in the event of a safety or other hazardous incident; failure to maintain standards of acceptable safety performance could have an adverse impact on our ability to attract and retain customers and could adversely impact our reputation, operations and financial performance; our operations are largely dependent upon the level of activity in the offshore oil and gas industry; the oil and gas industries on which we are largely dependent are suffering through a severe downturn, resulting in significant negative impact on demand for our services, and no assurance can be given that the downturn will not continue to be prolonged; many of the markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and if we are unable to effectively compete, it may result in a loss of market share or a decrease in revenue or profit margins; we rely on a limited number of large offshore helicopter support contracts with a limited number of customers. If any of these are terminated early or not renewed, our revenues could decline; negative publicity may adversely impact us; our fixed operating expenses and long-term contracts with customers could adversely affect our business under certain circumstances; we depend on a small number of helicopter manufacturers and any safety issues can severely limit our ability to continue operating helicopters already in our fleet; we depend on a limited number of third-party suppliers for helicopter parts and subcontract services; restructuring of our operations and organizational structure may lead to significant costs; our business requires substantial capital expenditures, lease and working capital financing, which we are currently blocked from accessing through the capital markets and banks. Any further deterioration of current industry or business conditions, the capital and banking markets or a prolonged period in Chapter 11 proceedings generally could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations; we rely on the secondary used helicopter market to dispose of our older helicopters and parts due to our ongoing fleet modernization efforts; our operations are subject to extensive regulations which could increase our costs and adversely affect us; our maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) business, Heli-One, could suffer if licenses issued by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or governmental authorities are not renewed or we cannot obtain additional licenses; we derive significant revenue from non-wholly owned variable interest entities. If we are unable to maintain good relations with the other owners of such non-wholly owned entities, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected; our operations may suffer due to political, regulatory, commercial and economic uncertainty; our business in countries with a history of corruption and transactions with foreign governments increases the compliance risks associated with our international activities; we are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws, rules, regulations and ordinances that could have an adverse impact on our business; we are subject to many different forms of taxation in various jurisdictions throughout the world, which could lead to disagreements with tax authorities regarding the application of tax laws; the offshore helicopter services industry is cyclical; we are exposed to foreign currency risks; our failure to hedge exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates effectively could unfavorably affect our financial performance; we are exposed to credit risks; our customers may seek to shift risk to us; if oil and gas companies undertake cost reduction methods, there may be an adverse effect on our business; reductions in spending on helicopter services by government agencies could lead to modifications of search and rescue (SAR) and emergency medical services (EMS) contract terms or delays in receiving payments, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations; failure to develop or implement new technologies and disruption to our systems could affect our results of operations; we rely on information technology, and if we are unable to protect against service interruptions, data corruption, cyber-based attacks or network security breaches, our operations could be disrupted and our business could be negatively affected; the loss of key personnel could affect our growth and future success; labor problems could adversely affect us; if the assets in our defined benefit pension plans are not sufficient to meet the plans’ obligations, we could be required to make substantial cash contributions and our liquidity could be adversely affected; adverse results of legal proceedings could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations; in the event we are or become treated as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, our U.S. shareholders could be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences; we are controlled by a shareholder group, which might have interests that conflict with ours or the interests of our other shareholders; due to our Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, our ordinary shares may have no value and any investment in our shares is highly speculative; the market for our ordinary shares historically has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations; we have not paid dividends on our ordinary shares historically and may not pay any cash dividends on our ordinary or preferred shares for the foreseeable future; pursuant to the terms of the preferred shares, which rank senior to our ordinary shares, we are required to pay regular cash dividends or issue shares in respect of amounts accrued as dividends on the preferred shares, and we may be required under certain circumstances to repurchase the preferred shares; we are currently unable to pay such obligations while we are in Chapter 11 proceedings and are likely not to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future; our preferred shares have rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the rights of, holders of our ordinary shares. Such preferential rights could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, and may result in the interests of the holders of our preferred shares differing from those of the holders of our ordinary shares; we are a holding company and, accordingly, are dependent upon distributions from our subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet our financial obligations and pay dividends; the requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and distract our management; provisions of our articles of association and Cayman Islands corporate law may discourage or prevent an acquisition of us which could adversely affect the value of our ordinary shares; our organizational documents contain a variety of anti-takeover provisions that could delay, deter or prevent a change in control; shareholder rights under Cayman Islands law may differ materially from shareholder rights in the United States, which could adversely affect the ability of us and our shareholders to protect our and their interests; as a shareholder, you might have difficulty obtaining or enforcing a judgment against us because we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands; our major investors, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice and First Reserve Management, L.P., may compete with us, and our articles of association contain a provision that expressly permits our non-employee directors to compete with us; and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2016. The Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission are available at www.sec.gov. You are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements herein and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. No assurances can be given that our efforts to effectively reorganize under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code will ultimately be successful or that we will succeed in strengthening our balance sheet or increase our financial flexibility. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated.

As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the various lists of holders of Claims in each Class, as maintained by the Debtors or their agents, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record holders of any Claims after the Distribution Record Date. Neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, nor the Disbursing Agent shall have any obligation to recognize any transfer of a Claim occurring after the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. In addition, with respect to payment of any Cure Amounts or disputes over any Cure Amounts, neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, nor the Disbursing 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, even if such non-debtor party has sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred its Claim for a Cure Amount.

In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, no distribution or payment to such holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent has been notified of the then-current address of such holder, at which time or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable such distribution shall be made to such holder without interest.

6.8         Unclaimed Property.

One year from the later of (a) the Effective Date and (b) the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date a Claim is first Allowed, all distributions payable on account of Claim that are not deliverable and remain unclaimed shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors or their successors or assigns, and all claims of any other Entity (including the holder of a Claim in the same Class) to such distribution shall be discharged and forever barred.

The total number of New Membership Interests to be distributed on account of Allowed Claims will be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided for herein. No consideration will be provided in lieu of fractional shares that are rounded down. Neither the Reorganized Debtors nor the Disbursing Agent shall have any obligation to make a distribution that is less than one (1) New Membership Interest or Fifty Dollars ($50.00) in Cash.

(a)          The issuance of and the distribution under this Plan of the New Membership Interests and the New Unsecured Notes shall be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws to the fullest extent permitted by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. These securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act or other federal securities laws pursuant to the exemption provided by section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act, unless the holder is an “underwriter” with respect to such securities, as that term is defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, such section 1145 exempt securities generally may be resold without registration under state securities laws pursuant to various exemptions provided by the respective laws of the several states.

6.16       Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent.

(a)          The Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to: (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under this Plan; (ii) make all applicable distributions or payments provided for under this Plan; (iii) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities; and (iv) exercise such other powers (A) as may be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court (including any order issued after the Effective Date) or pursuant to this Plan or (B) as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions of this Plan.

(b)          To the extent the Disbursing Agent is an Entity other than a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court and subject to the written agreement of the Reorganized Debtors, the amount of any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date (including taxes) and any reasonable compensation and expense reimbursement Claims (including for reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees and expenses) made by the Disbursing Agent shall be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors.

(a)          In connection with this Plan and all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, the Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions under this Plan shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. In the case of a non-Cash distribution that is subject to withholding, the distributing party may withhold an appropriate portion of such distributed property and sell such withheld property to generate Cash necessary to pay over the withholding tax. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been distributed to and received by the applicable recipient for all purposes of this Plan.

43 

(b)          Notwithstanding the above, each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution under this Plan shall have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed on such holder by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution. The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent have the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to any issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations.

(c)          The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent may require, as a condition to receipt of a distribution, that the holder of an Allowed Claim provide any information necessary to allow the distributing party to comply with any such withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority. If the Reorganized Debtors or the Disbursing Agent make such a request and the holder fails to comply before the date that is 180 days after the request is made, the amount of such distribution shall irrevocably revert to the applicable Reorganized Debtor and any Claim in respect of such distribution shall be discharged and forever barred from assertion against such Reorganized Debtor or its respective property.

ARTICLE VII.                  Procedures for Resolving Claims.

7.1         Disputed Claims Generally.

Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under the Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be entitled to object to Claims. Any objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before: (a) 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 may be fixed by the Bankruptcy Court.

Any objections to Professional Fee Claims shall be served and filed (a) no later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the final applications for compensation or reimbursement by the applicable Professional Person or (b) such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.3         Estimation of Claims.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether the Debtors had previously objected to or otherwise disputed such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection. The Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Reorganized Debtors may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim.

44 

7.4         Claim Resolution Procedures Cumulative.

All of the objection, estimation, and resolution procedures in this Plan are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently settled, compromised, withdrawn, or resolved in accordance with this Plan by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.5         Resolution of Disputed Claims

On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the authority to litigate, compromise, settle, otherwise resolve or withdraw any objections to all Claims against the Debtors and to compromise and settle any such Disputed Claims without notice to or approval by the Bankruptcy Court or any other party; provided, however, that for so long as the Post-Effective Date Committee is in existence, the Post-Effective Date Committee shall have (i) consultation rights for the settlement of any General Unsecured Claims filed or asserted in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or more and (ii) reasonable consent rights with respect to any settlement of a General Unsecured Claim that is settled for an Allowed General Unsecured Claim in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). In the event the Post-Effective Date Committee does not consent to any such Claim settlement, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the right to seek approval of such Claim settlement by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019. Upon request, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall also provide the Post-Effective Date Committee with a spreadsheet of all General Unsecured Claims, which shall include the filed Claim amounts and any objections asserted thereto.

7.6         No Distributions Pending Allowance.

No payment or distribution provided under this Plan shall be made on account of a Disputed Claim unless and until (and only to the extent that) such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

7.7          Disputed Claims Reserve

(a)          There shall be withheld from the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims an amount of New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes that would be distributable to Disputed General Unsecured Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). There shall also be withheld Cash in an amount that would be distributable to any Disputed Convenience Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). The Disbursing Agent shall hold in the Disputed Claims Reserve all dividends, payments, and other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, property held in the Disputed Claims Reserve, to the extent that such property continues to be so held at the time such distributions are made or such obligations arise, and such dividends, payments, or other distributions shall be held for the benefit of (i) holders of Disputed General Unsecured Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, (ii) holders of New Unsecured Notes pending resolution of distributions to holders of Allowed Convenience Claims, (iii) holders of Disputed Convenience Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, and (iv) other parties entitled thereto hereunder.

45 

(b)          The Debtors intend to seek a determination by the Bankruptcy Court of the estimated amount (either on an individual or aggregate basis) of Disputed General Unsecured Claims and the Disputed Convenience Claims for purposes of determining the amount of the Disputed Claims Reserve attributable to such Disputed Claims. The New Membership Interests held in the Disputed Claims Reserve pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be deemed voted by the Disbursing Agent proportionally in the same manner as any outstanding New Membership Interests held by parties other than the Disbursing Agent are voted. The Disbursing Agent shall be responsible for payment, out of the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve, of any taxes imposed on the Disputed Claims Reserve or its assets. In the event, and to the extent, any Cash in the Disputed Claims Reserve is insufficient to pay the portion of any such taxes attributable to the taxable income arising from the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve (including any income that may arise upon the distribution of the assets in the Disputed Claims Reserve), assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve may be sold to pay such taxes. To the extent that a Disputed General Unsecured Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. To the extent that a Disputed Convenience Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of Cash to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. No interest shall be paid with respect to any Disputed Convenience Claim or any Disputed General Unsecured Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date.

(c)          In the event the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes remaining in the Disputed Claims Reserve are insufficient to satisfy all the Disputed Claims that have become Allowed and are due to be satisfied with distributions from the Disputed Claims Reserve, such Disputed Claims shall be satisfied Pro Rata or ratably, as applicable, from the Disputed Claims Reserve consistent with the proportional recoveries provided by the Plan and as set forth in Exhibit C to the Disclosure Statement. After all New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes have been distributed from the Disputed Claims Reserve, no further distributions shall be made in respect of Disputed Claims. At such time as all Disputed Claims have been resolved, any remaining New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes in the Disputed Claims Reserve shall be shall be released from the Disputed Claims Reserve for distribution in accordance with Sections 4.7 and 5.8 hereof.

46 

7.8         Distributions 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 this Plan. As soon as practicable after the date on which the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Disbursing Agent shall provide to the holder of such Claim the distribution (if any) to which such holder is entitled under this Plan as of the Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim unless required by the Bankruptcy Code.

48 

8.3         Rejection

The Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the rejection of all the leases and contracts identified in the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, and Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases.

(c)          Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, or in a previously entered order of the Bankruptcy Court, nothing shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-executory contract or unexpired or expired lease.

(a)          Each of the Conditions Precedent to the occurrence of the Effective Date may be waived subject to the written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, of the Debtors, the Requisite Plan Sponsors, and the Creditors’ Committee and, to the extent such waiver (i) materially, adversely, disproportionately, and directly impacts the treatment of any Claims of the Individual Creditor Parties, the consent of the Individual Creditor Parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (ii) materially and directly impacts the rights, interests of the Milestone Parties under the Milestone Term Sheet (including any agreements contemplated therein or related thereto) and the PK Financing Documents, the consent of Milestone, which shall not be unreasonable withheld. If any such condition precedent is waived pursuant to this Section and the Effective Date occurs, each party agreeing to waive such condition precedent shall be estopped from withdrawing such waiver after the Effective Date or otherwise challenging the occurrence of the Effective Date on the basis that such condition was not satisfied. If this Plan is confirmed for fewer than all of the Debtors as provided for in Section 5.19 of this Plan, only the conditions applicable to the Debtor or Debtors for which this Plan is confirmed must be satisfied or waived for the Effective Date to occur.

53

55 

10.9       Injunction Related to Releases and Exculpation.

The Confirmation Order shall permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any Entity, whether directly, derivatively, or otherwise, of any Claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, losses, or liabilities released or exculpated pursuant to this Plan.

Except as expressly provided in Section 10.11 of this Plan, and subject to Sections 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 of this Plan, nothing contained in this Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any rights, claims, Causes of Action, rights of setoff or recoupment, or other legal or equitable defenses that the Debtors had immediately before the Effective Date on behalf of the Estates or of themselves in accordance with any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable nonbankruptcy law. Subject to Sections 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 of this Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall have, retain, reserve, and be entitled to assert all such claims, Causes of Action, rights of setoff or recoupment, and other legal or equitable defenses as fully as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, and all of the Debtors’ legal and equitable rights in respect of any Unimpaired Claim may be asserted after the Effective Date to the same extent as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced. 

56 

10.13    Ipso Facto and Similar Provisions Ineffective.

Any term of any policy, contract, or other obligation applicable to a Debtor shall be void and of no further force or effect with respect to any Debtor to the extent that such policy, contract, or other obligation is conditioned on, creates an obligation of the Debtor as a result of, or gives rise to a right of any Entity based on any of the following: (a) the insolvency or financial condition of a Debtor; (b) the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases; (c) the confirmation or consummation of this Plan, including any change of control that will occur as a result of such consummation; (d) any change of control resulting from the issuance, or mandatory conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes; (e) any change of control resulting from the Cayman Proceedings; or (f) the Restructuring.

Except to the extent provided herein, upon the Effective Date, the current and former members of the Creditors’ Committee, and their respective officers, employees, counsel, advisors and agents, shall be released and discharged of and from all further authority, duties, responsibilities and obligations related to and arising from and in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases; provided, however, that following the Effective Date, the Creditors’ Committee shall continue in existence and have standing and a right to be heard for the following limited purposes: (1) Claims and/or applications for compensation by Professionals and requests for allowance of Administrative Claims for substantial contribution pursuant to section 503(b)(3)(D) of the Bankruptcy Code; (2) any appeals of the Confirmation Order, (3) any appeals to which the Creditors’ Committee is a named party; (4) any adversary proceedings or contested matters as of the Effective Date to which the Creditors’ Committee is a named party; and (5) responding to creditor inquiries for fourteen (14) days following the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation by the Bankruptcy Court, the remainder of the terms and provisions of this Plan shall remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation. The Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of this Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with this Section, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

On the Effective Date, this Plan, the Plan Supplement, the Confirmation Order and the Cayman Proceedings shall supersede all previous and contemporaneous negotiations, promises, covenants, agreements, understandings, and representations on such subjects, all of which have become merged and integrated into this Plan; provided, however, the Plan Support Agreement and Backstop Agreement shall not be so superseded solely to the extent such agreements contain covenants or other obligations that apply to the period after the Effective Date.

I.
Overview of the Plan

The joint chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Plan,”¹ attached hereto as Exhibit B and as the same may be amended from time to time) described in this Disclosure Statement (as amended, and including all exhibits, the “Disclosure Statement”) is the culmination of CHC Group Ltd.’s (“CHC Parent”) and its debtor affiliates’ (each, a “Debtor” and collectively, the “Debtors”)² voluntary chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”), which were commenced in the midst of an unprecedented decline in oil and gas prices. The significant and sustained drop in oil prices and the related contraction of demand for offshore helicopter services, coupled with customer demands for price concessions and new flexible contract terms, made it impossible for the Debtors to bear the weight of their capital structure and fleet expense without relief under the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors have engaged in extensive negotiations with their key creditor constituencies, which culminated in that certain Plan Support Agreement (including all exhibits thereto), dated as of October 11, 2016 [Docket No. 956], as amended, restated, or otherwise modified in accordance with its terms, and as amended on November 3, 2016 [Docket No. 1129] and November 23, 2016 [Docket No. 1263] (the “Plan Support Agreement”)³ by and among (i) the Debtors, (ii) The Milestone Aviation Group Limited (“Milestone”); The Milestone Aviation Asset Holding Group No. 1 Ltd; The Milestone Aviation Asset Holding Group No. 8 Ltd; The Milestone Aviation Asset Holding Group No. 20 Ltd; The Milestone Aviation Asset Holding Group No. 25 Ltd; Milestone Export Leasing, Limited; GE Capital Equipment Finance Ltd; and GE European Equipment Finance (Aircraft No. 2) Limited (collectively with Milestone, the “Milestone Parties”), (iii) the beneficial holders, or investment advisors or managers for the account of such beneficial holders, of Senior Secured Notes (as herein defined) that have executed the Plan Support Agreement (the “Plan Sponsors”), (iv) the statutory committee of unsecured claimholders appointed by the U.S. Trustee in the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Creditors’ Committee”), (v) Solus Alternative Asset Management LP and Marble Ridge Capital LP as beneficial holders, or investment advisors or managers for the account of such beneficial holders, of Unsecured Notes (as herein defined), together with any of their respective successors and permitted assigns under the Plan Support Agreement, that have executed the Plan Support Agreement (the “Individual Creditor Parties”), and (vi) each of the other beneficial owners (or investment managers or advisors for the beneficial owners) of the Senior Secured Notes, Unsecured Notes, or Claims against the Debtors, in each case, that becomes a party to the Plan Support Agreement in accordance with its terms by executing and delivering a Joinder Agreement (as defined in the Plan Support Agreement), together with any of their respective successors and permitted assigns under the Plan Support Agreement (the “Additional Consenting Parties” and together with the Milestone Parties, the Plan Sponsors, the Creditors’ Committee, and the Individual Creditor Parties, the “Consenting Creditor Parties”).

¹ Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan.

² A list of the Debtors in these chapter 11 cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtor’s federal tax identification number, where applicable, is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

³ A term sheet (the “Plan Term Sheet”) outlining the principle terms of the Restructuring incorporated into the Plan is annexed to the Plan Support Agreement as Exhibit A thereto.

 1

In connection with the Plan Support Agreement, CHC Parent entered into that certain Backstop Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2016, as amended, restated, or otherwise modified in accordance with its terms, (the “Backstop Agreement,” attached to the Plan Support Agreement as Exhibit B thereto) and as amended on November 3, 2016 and November 23, 2016 by and among (i) CHC Parent and (ii) certain of the Plan Sponsors and the Individual Creditor Parties, together with any of their respective successors and permitted assigns under the Backstop Agreement, that have agreed to backstop the Rights Offering pursuant to which each holder of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims is entitled to receive Subscription Rights to acquire New Second Lien Convertible Notes in accordance with the Rights Offering Procedures set forth herein in Section XIII (each in its capacity as such, a “Backstop Party” and collectively, the “Backstop Parties”). Each of the Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, have agreed, pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, to fully participate in the Rights Offering and purchase the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (the “Backstop Commitment”) in accordance with the percentages set forth in Exhibit A to the Backstop Agreement (the “Backstop Percentages”) to the extent unsubscribed under the Rights Offering.

On October 11, 2016, the Debtors filed the Debtors’ Motion for an Order Pursuant to Sections 105(a) and 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 6004 and 9019 Authorizing the Debtors to Enter into and Approving Plan Support Agreement, Backstop Agreement and Milestone Term Sheet [Docket No. 953, refiled as Docket No. 956] (the “Support Agreements Approval Motion”), which [was approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) on December [●], 2016 [Docket No. [●]]. Pursuant to the Plan Support Agreement, the Consenting Creditor Parties have agreed to support and vote in favor of the Plan, subject to customary conditions and approval of this Disclosure Statement.

The Plan represents a comprehensive financial and operational restructuring of the Debtors (the “Restructuring”) and provides additional liquidity that will further the Debtors’ emergence from chapter 11 and their continued existence as a successful and profitable global helicopter services and maintenance, repair and overhaul provider.

The Plan is also value-maximizing for all stakeholders. Among other things the Plan:

· provides for a $300 million new money investment through the fully-backstopped Rights Offering;

· reduces the Debtors’ prepetition debt by approximately $925 million (prior to conversion of all of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and by $1.4 billion subsequent to such conversion);

· reduces the Debtors’ annual Cash interest burden by 85%, which frees up approximately $115 million in annual cash flow that can be used for reinvestment in the Debtors’ business;

· provides for a global settlement between the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties described more fully below; and

· provides for a right-sizing of the Debtors’ fleet, including a significant reduction in rent expense.

Below is an overview of the facilities and treatment provided for under the Plan.

1. Exit Revolving Credit Facility

[The Plan provides for a new revolving credit facility in a principal amount to be determined (the “Exit Revolving Credit Facility”) or such other facility as is necessary to effectuate the treatment of the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims.]

 2

2. Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility

The Debtors have agreed to the terms of the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement, which will reduce the principal balance under the ABL Credit Agreement, to be apportioned across eight (8) aircraft that the Debtors will retain.

3. Milestone Transactions

The Debtors have agreed to a fleet restructuring transaction with the Milestone Parties, one of the Debtors’ largest aircraft lessors. The transaction with the Milestone Parties includes, among other things, a comprehensive restructuring of lease rentals, the consensual return of certain helicopters, the lease of additional helicopters, amendments to the return conditions for certain helicopters, and, at the Debtors’ election, the provision by an affiliate of Milestone, PK Transportation Finance Ireland Limited, of a new $150 million committed debt facility for the acquisition and/or refinancing of certain aircraft (the “PK Financing Facility”). The Milestone transaction also avoids potential complex and costly litigation around the size of the Milestone Parties’ General Unsecured Claims, while enabling the Debtors to continue to use their aircraft pursuant to restructured lease agreements.

4. $300 Million New Money Investment and Rights Offering

In connection with the Plan, and pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, Reorganized CHC will solicit participation in the Rights Offering to purchase New Second Lien Convertible Notes due three-and-a-half years from the Effective Date, bearing no interest (other than in connection with an event of default), in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $433.3 million, after adjustment for an original issue discount of ten percent (10.0%) (or approximately $33.3 million) and a $100 million Equitization Premium (as described herein), for an aggregate purchase price of $300 million. On the Effective Date, approximately $30.8 million in additional New Second Lien Convertible Notes will also be issued to the Backstop Parties in exchange for undertaking the Backstop Commitment, making the aggregate principal amount of New Second Lien Convertible Notes issued approximately $464.1 million. On an as converted and fully diluted basis (but subject to dilution for the Management Incentive Plan), the New Second Lien Convertible Notes represent 85.4% of the New Membership Interests. Pursuant to the Rights Offering, the $300.0 million investment will be allocated $280.0 million to the holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and $20 million to the holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims. Only Eligible Offerees may participate in the Rights Offering. Each Eligible Offeree that is a holder of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim that participates in the Rights Offering will receive its Pro Rata share of its respective Class’ allocation of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes. In lieu of Subscription Rights, Non-Eligible Offerees will be given the opportunity to receive a substitute distribution (a “Substitute Distribution”) consisting of New Membership Interests. The Substitute Distribution is further described in Section XIII.F below.

5. New Unsecured Notes

In connection with the Plan, Reorganized CHC will issue up to $37.5 million of New Unsecured Notes, with a seven year maturity and an interest rate of 5.0% payable in kind until the earlier of the maturity or conversion of all of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and thereafter payable in Cash. The New Unsecured Notes will have the terms set forth in the term sheet annexed to the Plan Term Sheet as Exhibit E (the “New Unsecured Notes Term Sheet”). The New Unsecured Notes, less the amount of the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount, will be distributed to holders of General Unsecured Claims pursuant to the allocations described in Section I.8 herein.

 3

6. Global Settlement

The Plan is the product of extensive arms’-length negotiations, encompasses a global settlement and avoids litigation over numerous complex issues among all creditors pursuant to section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019.  Such issues include, among others:

· the amount, value, and treatment of ABL Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, and Unsecured Notes Claims against the Debtors;

· the validity, extent and priority of the Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes;

· the value of the Debtors’ encumbered and unencumbered Assets;

· any potential adequate protection or diminution in value Claims by the holders of Senior Secured Notes;

· any potential Claims to surcharge Collateral under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

· the allocation of distributable value among the various creditor classes; and

· the Equity Value and the total enterprise value of the reorganized company premised upon the Debtors remaining as a going concern, which is conditioned upon the $300 million new money investment.

As part of the integrated, global settlement, the Plan also provides for a settlement of the allocation and distribution of value among holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, as described in further detail below. The allocation of recovery value to Allowed General Unsecured Claims in the manner provided for in the Plan is a fair, equitable and reasonable means of allocating recoveries among holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims. Litigation over the allocation of value between the Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, and General Unsecured Claims would have been complex, protracted, and costly, ultimately reducing the available recoveries for all creditors.

The global settlement by and between the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties avoids potential litigation and the factual and legal complexities associated therewith. Resolution of the various creditor and intercompany issues would require significant litigation, discovery, and potential involvement of experts, which would result in significant administrative expense. Litigation of these issues would likely result in significant delay to reach an Effective Date of the Plan, and the resulting expense is not in the best interests of creditors. Settlement decreases the potential for diminution in the value of the assets and provides greater certainty that the Debtors will be able to emerge as a reorganized entity rather than suffer a liquidation.

7. Treatment of Claims and Interests

In addition to the treatment described above, the Plan contemplates that (i) seventy-nine-and-a-half percent (79.5%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to eleven-point-six percent (11.6%) of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan) will be distributed to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims; (ii) eight-point-nine percent (8.9%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to one-point-three percent (1.3%) of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan) will be distributed to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims; and (iii) eleven-point-six percent (11.6%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to one-point-seven percent (1.7%) of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan) will be distributed to holders of General Unsecured Claims.⁴

⁴ In addition, pursuant to the global Plan Settlement, the holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims agreed to waive their rights to receive any recovery on account of their Senior Secured Notes Deficiency Claims, thereby avoiding dilution of the recoveries to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and Allowed General Unsecured Claimson account of such deficiency claims.

 4

The Plan also contemplates that (A) holders of Allowed Convenience Claims⁵ will receive the lesser of (i) payment in full in Cash and (ii) their Pro Rata share of the Convenience Claims Distribution Amount, which is $750,000; (B) holders of Allowed Other Priority Claims and Allowed Other Secured Claims will be paid in full; and (C) all Existing CHC Interests will either be cancelled or struck-off.

The following table summarizes the treatment of, and estimated recovery for, Claim and Interest holders under the Plan. The Plan groups the Debtors together solely for the purpose of describing treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan and confirmation of the Plan. Although the Plan applies to all of the Debtors, the Plan constitutes forty-three (43) distinct chapter 11 plans, one for each Debtor, and, except with respect to the Class 7 consolidation for distribution purposes only set forth in Section 5.21 of the Plan, for voting and distribution purposes, each Class of Claims will be deemed to contain sub-classes for each of the Debtors, to the extent applicable. To the extent there are no Allowed Claims or Interests with respect to a particular Debtor, such Class is deemed to be omitted with respect to such Debtor. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, to the extent a holder has a Claim that may be asserted against more than one Debtor, the vote of such holder in connection with such Claims will be counted as a vote of such Claim against each Debtor against which such holder has a Claim. For additional information, please refer to the discussion in Section VI of this Disclosure Statement and the Plan itself:

⁵ The Plan defines a Convenience Claim as any Claim against the Debtors that would otherwise be a Primary General Unsecured Claim that is (i) Allowed in the Convenience Claim Amount or less, or (ii) irrevocably reduced to the Convenience Claim Amount at the election of the holder of the Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim evidenced on the Ballot submitted by such holder; provided, however, that a Primary General Unsecured Claim may not be subdivided into multiple Claims of the Convenience Claim Amount or less for purposes of receiving treatment as a Convenience Claim; provided, further, however that, to the extent that a holder of a Convenience Claim against a Debtor holds any joint and several liability claims, guaranty claims, or other similar claims (such as an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim) against any other Debtors arising from or relating to the same obligations or liability as such Convenience Claim, such holder shall only be entitled to a distribution on one Convenience Claim against the Debtors in full and final satisfaction of all such Claims. The Convenience Claim Amount is One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), or such greater amount as may be agreed to among the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee.

8. Treatment of Unsecured Notes Claims and General Unsecured Claims

Recoveries for Holders of Unsecured Notes Claims

Pursuant to the settlements embodied in the Plan, the Plan allocates eight-point-nine percent (8.9%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan, for distribution to all holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and, subject to certain restrictions, the opportunity for holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims who are Eligible Offerees to participate in the Rights Offering.  Non-Eligible Offerees will receive their Pro Rata share of up to zero-point-one percent (0.1%) of New Membership Interests otherwise distributable to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims.

 11

In the aggregate, pursuant to the Plan (and the global settlement contained therein) holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims receive a higher recovery rate than holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims.  The aggregate recovery to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims takes into account the fact that forty (40) of the forty-three (43) Debtors issued or guaranteed the obligations under the Unsecured Notes and, therefore, the holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims are able to assert the full value of their Unsecured Notes claims against all forty (40) of those entities, while holders of General Unsecured Claims are limited to asserting their claims at one or fewer entities.  Several of the Debtors at which the Unsecured Notes Claims are asserted do not have other General Unsecured Claims asserted at such entities. Therefore, the unencumbered value of such Debtors inures solely to the benefit of the Unsecured Notes Claims.

Recoveries for Holders of General Unsecured Claims

In addition, the Plan provides for distributions to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims aggregate value consisting of (i) eleven-point-six percent (11.6%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan, and (ii) $37.5 million of New Unsecured Notes, less the amount of the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount.

Pursuant to the settlements embodied in the Plan, this value is allocated among holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims, and holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims. The Plan establishes a minimum level of recoveries for Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims intended to reflect a fair settlement of the numerous disputes between secured and unsecured creditors, while ensuring that unsecured creditors with Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims receive additional recoveries on account of such claims.

Holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims against all of the Debtors will receive their Pro Rata share of the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution valued at approximately $22.5 million, consisting of, collectively, (i) five-point-seven percent (5.7%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan, and (ii) $17,979,648 of New Unsecured Notes (the “Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution”).  The Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution is estimated to provide a minimum recovery of approximately 1.8% to all holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims against the Debtors.  That recovery rate could increase or decrease depending on the aggregate amount of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims, the extent to which holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims elect to participate in the Convenience Class, and as necessary to ensure that the distributions to all Allowed General Unsecured Claims satisfy the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim (other than holders of Convenience Class Claims) shall receive their share of the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution.

In addition to the distribution on account of their Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims, holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims (i.e., guarantee claims, Aircraft Sublease claims, and other claims as more fully described in the Plan) against certain Debtors defined as the Secondary Recovery Debtors will receive their Pro Rata share of the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution allocated to the applicable Debtor entity against which the respective claims apply. Based on the Debtors’ analysis of each Debtor entity’s unencumbered value, only eight (8) Debtor entities with Secondary General Unsecured Claims, identified on Exhibit C, have unencumbered assets to support a distribution to holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims. Pursuant to the Plan settlement, a pool, valued at approximately $23.5 million, consisting of (i) five-point-nine percent (5.9%) of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan, and (ii) $18,770,352 of New Unsecured Notes (the “Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution”) will be made available for distribution, on an entity-by-entity ratable basis to holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims.

 12

The allocation of the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution among the Secondary Recovery Debtors is calculated using a recovery waterfall based upon all of the claims, secured and unsecured, at each entity. This recovery waterfall model allocates value based upon book value of assets and calculates the residual unencumbered value after accounting for all claims, available for distribution to holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at each Debtor entity. At each of the eight (8) Debtor entities identified on Exhibit C and defined as Secondary Recovery Debtors, the value available for distribution to holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at a particular Secondary Recovery Debtor is available for distribution only at that particular Secondary Recovery Debtor. Consequently, the estimated recovery rates on Exhibit C could increase or decrease depending on the aggregate amount of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at each such Secondary Recovery Debtor. The Debtors reserve the right to modify the allocation of the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution and Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution, including among the Debtor entities identified on Exhibit C, to satisfy the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code. Holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims whose secondary claims are asserted at Debtors that are not Secondary Recovery Debtors (those Debtors with insufficient unencumbered assets, on a book value basis, and after accounting for the Primary Unsecured Claims Distribution, to support a distribution to holders of secondary claims), will not receive or retain any property under the Plan on account of such Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims.

Calculation of Recoveries for Allowed General Unsecured Claims

To estimate their recovery under the Plan:

· First, holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims either against one Debtor or against more than one Debtor should multiply the aggregate total of their Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims at any Debtor by the estimated recovery rate (1.8%). For the avoidance of doubt, each creditor shall only have one Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim against the Debtors arising out of the same obligations or liabilities.

· Second, to estimate any additional recovery on account of Secondary General Unsecured Claims (if applicable), such holders should multiply their Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at each applicable Secondary Recovery Debtor by the estimated recovery rate listed on Exhibit C for that specific Secondary Recovery Debtor. Then, such holder should add up the result of their Secondary Recovery Debtor recoveries to determine their aggregate recovery on account of their Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims. To the extent such holder also has an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim at a Debtor that is not a Secondary Recovery Debtor, such holder will not receive any recovery on account of such claim.

· Finally, the sum of such holder’s recovery on account of the Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim and the Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim(s) calculated per the steps described immediately above represents such holder’s aggregate estimated recovery under the Plan.

As a hypothetical example, a creditor holds the following claims: (i) an Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim of $500,000 at Heliworld Leasing Limited; (ii) an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim on account of such Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim of $500,000 at Secondary Recovery Debtor CHC Helicopter S.A. (“CHC SA”), which provides for a 1.23% recovery pursuant to Exhibit C and (iii) an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim of $500,000 at Debtor CHC Parent, which is not a Secondary Recovery Debtor. The calculation of the value of such creditor’s recovery is as follows:

 13

1. Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim: The creditor’s recovery on account of its Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim will be calculated as $500,000 multiplied by 1.8%, totaling $9,000.

2. Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims: $500,000 multiplied by 1.23% totaling $6,150 at Secondary Recovery Debtor CHC SA and $0 for the claim asserted at non-Secondary Recovery Debtor CHC Parent.

3. Aggregate Recovery Value: The sum of $9,000 plus $6,150, for an aggregate recovery value of $15,150.

For additional information, please refer to the discussion in Section VI of this Disclosure Statement and the Plan itself.

Introduction to The Disclosure Statement

A. The Purpose of the Disclosure Statement

Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code is primarily used for business reorganization. Under chapter 11, a company endeavors to restructure its finances to maximize recovery to its stakeholders. Consummation of a plan of reorganization is the principal objective of a chapter 11 reorganization case. A plan of reorganization sets forth the means for satisfying claims against, and interests in, the debtor. Confirmation of a plan of reorganization by a bankruptcy court binds the debtor, any issuer of securities under the plan, any person acquiring property under the plan, and any creditor or interest holder of the debtor. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the order approving confirmation of a plan discharges the debtor from any debt that arose prior to the date of confirmation of the plan and substitutes the obligations specified under the confirmed plan.

In general, a plan of reorganization (i) divides claims and interests into separate classes, (ii) specifies the property that each class is to receive under the plan, and (iii) contains provisions necessary to implement the plan. Under the Bankruptcy Code, “claims” and “interests,” rather than “creditors” and “shareholders,” are classified because creditors and shareholders may hold claims and interests in more than one class.

The purpose of this Disclosure Statement is to provide the holders of Claims entitled or solicited to vote on the Plan with adequate information to make an informed judgment about the Plan. Pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, acceptances of a chapter 11 plan may be solicited only after a written disclosure statement has been provided to each creditor or interest holder who is entitled to vote on the plan. This Disclosure Statement is presented by the Debtors to holders of Claims entitled to vote on the Plan to satisfy the disclosure requirements contained in section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code.

This Disclosure Statement includes, among other things, an overview of the events leading to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, a summary of the Chapter 11 Cases, an explanation of the Plan as well as certain associated risk factors, and an explanation of the confirmation process.

 14

B. Who is Entitled to Vote

Under the Bankruptcy Code, only holders of claims or interests in “impaired” classes are entitled to vote on a plan (each class constituting, a “Voting Class” and each claim constituting, a “Voting Claim”) (unless, for reasons discussed in more detail below, such holders are deemed to reject the plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code). Under section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, a class of claims or interests is deemed to be “impaired” under the plan unless (i) the plan leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights to which such claim or interest entitles the holder thereof to or (ii) notwithstanding any legal right to an accelerated payment of such claim or interest, the plan, among other things, cures all existing defaults (other than defaults resulting from the occurrence of events of bankruptcy) and reinstates the maturity of such claim or interest as it existed before the default.

III.
The Debtors’ Operations And Capital Structure

The Debtors and their non-debtor affiliates (collectively, “CHC”) are one of the largest global commercial helicopter service companies in the world, primarily engaged in providing helicopter services to the offshore oil and gas industry. With its senior management headquartered in Irving, Texas, CHC maintains bases on six continents with major operations in the North Sea, Brazil, Australia, and several locations across Africa, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia. CHC’s business consists of two main operating segments: (i) helicopter flight operations (“Helicopter Services”); and (ii) helicopter maintenance, repair, and overhaul operations (“MRO”) carried out by its Heli-One division (“Heli-One”), which services CHC’s helicopter fleet as well as aircraft of third-party customers.

A. Helicopter Services

CHC’s Helicopter Services segment consists of flying operations in the Eastern North Sea, the Western North Sea, the Americas, the Asia Pacific region and the Africa-Euro Asia region, primarily serving offshore oil and gas customers. These services facilitate large, long-distance crew changes on offshore production facilities and drilling rigs. Helicopter Services also provides helicopter services for search and rescue (“SAR”) and emergency medical services (“EMS”) to various government agencies, all of which are typically under long-term service contracts. In some instances, Helicopter Services also provides SAR and EMS services to its oil and gas customers. Helicopter Services generated approximately ninety percent (90%) of its revenue for the three years ended April 30, 2015 from oil and gas customers. The majority of this amount was from CHC’s customers’ offshore production operations. SAR and EMS revenue to non-oil and gas customers contributed approximately ten percent (10%) of Helicopter Services revenue for the three years ended April 30, 2015.

B. Heli-One (MRO)

CHC’s Heli-One segment includes helicopter MRO facilities in the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Canada, and the United States, which provide services for CHC’s helicopter fleet and for CHC’s external customer base, primarily in Europe, Asia, and North America. CHC’s MRO capabilities enable CHC to perform heavy structural repairs, and maintain, overhaul, and test helicopters and helicopter components globally across various helicopter types. Heli-One’s largest customer is CHC’s Helicopter Services segment. Heli-One derives a significant portion of its third-party revenue from “power by the hour” (“PBH”) contracts, where the customer pays a ratable monthly charge, typically based on the number of hours flown, for all scheduled and un-scheduled maintenance.

 17

C. Fleet

As of the Petition Date, CHC maintained a fleet of 230 helicopters, which were primarily medium (8 to 15 passengers) and heavy (16 to 26 passengers) helicopters (the “CHC Prepetition Fleet”). Of these helicopters, CHC owned 67 helicopters, 13 of which were financed through an asset-based loan facility, and leased the remainder from various third-party lessors. Following extensive efforts by the Debtors to align the CHC Prepetition Fleet with their business needs (see Section V.G below), upon emergence, the Debtors expect that they will have a fleet of approximately 130 helicopters.

D. Organizational Structure

The legal entities in CHC’s organizational structure primarily consist of (i) operating affiliates, including Variable Interest Entities (as defined below), in various jurisdictions that support Helicopter Services (the “HS Operating Entities”), (ii) fleet entities that either own or lease aircraft from third-party lessors (the “FleetCos”), (iii) Heli-One entities that support the MRO business (the “Heli-One Entities”), and (iv) entities that provide general corporate support and administration functions to the CHC enterprise (the “G&A Entities”), including the provision of pilots and engineers from CHC’s global touring crew (the “Global Touring Crew”) to the HS Operating Entities. CHC’s corporate structure chart as of the Petition Date is attached hereto as Exhibit F.

The HS Operating Entities generally hold the Helicopter Services customer contracts as well as various aircraft operating certificates, operating licenses, and regulatory authorizations (collectively, the “AOCs”) that are required to carry out helicopter flight operations in the operating jurisdictions. The HS Operating Entities typically employ local pilots and maintenance engineers, together with administrative and other support staff. In certain limited circumstances, AOCs and/or employees are held/employed by entities other than the HS Operating Entities.

The CHC FleetCos either own or lease from third-party lessors all of the aircraft in the CHC Prepetition Fleet. In most cases, the FleetCos sublease the aircraft to HS Operating Entities. These leasing structures provide regulatory and business flexibility and allow CHC to operate in each of the regions.

The Heli-One Entities are responsible for the majority of the MRO activities within the CHC business, including the internal PBH service arrangements with the HS Operating Entities as well as the third-party PBH contracts. These entities also manage the supply chain and logistics for moving spare parts and components between the various Heli-One facilities and CHC bases. The Heli-One Entities employ a larger number of shop employees in the Netherlands, Norway, Canada, Poland, and Fort Collins, Colorado.

CHC has centralized many of its general corporate and administrative functions in the G&A Entities, which typically provide services across the entire CHC enterprise. These services include, among others, executive, legal, finance, accounting, information technology, crew provision and scheduling, and certain sales functions. In most instances, the services provided by the G&A Entities are allocated to the various operating entities pursuant to intercompany service arrangements and booked as intercompany payables.

G. Prepetition Indebtedness and Capital Structure

1. Equity Ownership

CHC Parent files annual reports with, and furnishes other information to, the SEC. The ordinary shares of CHC Parent were traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “HELI” until February 1, 2016, when CHC Parent received a delisting notice from the NYSE. Following the delisting, CHC Parent’s ordinary shares were accepted for listing on the OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”) and trading in CHC Parent’s ordinary shares commenced on the OTCQX under the ticker symbol “HELIF” on February 2, 2016. Effective on the Petition Date, the ordinary shares ceased trading on the OTCQX and began trading on the OTC Pink Marketplace, under the symbol “HELIQ”.

As of April 30, 2016, 544,000,000 shares of the Debtors’ $0.003 par value ordinary shares had been authorized with 2,721,592 shares of ordinary shares issued and outstanding. As of April 30, 2016, 6,000,000 shares of the Debtors’ $0.0001 par value redeemable convertible preferred shares had been authorized with 671,189 shares of redeemable convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding.

As of April 30, 2016, First Reserve Management, L.P. (“First Reserve”), a global private equity firm focused on energy, owned 1,530,011 shares of the CHC’s ordinary shares, representing approximately 28.1% of the total voting power calculated on an as-converted basis of all stock.

On December 15, 2014, the Debtors completed the final of three offerings for a total of 600,000 shares of convertible preferred shares (the “Preferred Shares” and the holders of Preferred Shares, the “Preferred Holders”) through a private placement to Clayton Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”) at the price of $1,000 per share for a total of $600 million. CHC used the net proceeds of this investment to reduce debt and other fixed charges.

 19

Pursuant to that certain Rights and Restrictions of the Convertible Preferred Shares of CHC Group Ltd. Establishing the Terms of the Convertible Preferred Shares (the “Preferred Share Rights and Restrictions”), Preferred Holders accrue and accumulate dividends on a daily basis at a base rate of 8.50% per annum, which are payable, either in cash or with additional Preferred Shares, quarterly in arrears if, as and when so authorized and declared by the board of directors. As of April 30, 2016, 671,189 Preferred Shares were issued and outstanding, and all are held directly or indirectly by CD&R.

At any given time, all Preferred Holders can convert any or all of their Preferred Shares into some number of ordinary shares based upon a variable conversion rate. As of April 30, 2016, CD&R held preferred shares representing approximately 52.2% of the outstanding ordinary shares on an as-converted basis. Pursuant to the Preferred Share Rights and Restrictions, to the extent that any Preferred Holder converts some number of Preferred Shares into ordinary shares such that the Preferred Holder controls more than 49.9% of total outstanding ordinary shares, any shares in excess of 49.9% of the total outstanding ordinary shares are replaced with an equivalent number of non-voting ordinary shares. The Preferred Shares vote together with the ordinary shares on an as converted basis and represent 49.9% of the vote.

IV.
Key Events Leading To The Commencement Of Chapter 11 Cases

A. Collapse in Oil Prices

With a significant customer base in the oil and gas industry, the Debtors’ performance is closely tied to and impacted by changes in oil prices. The prices of Brent crude oil and natural gas have declined dramatically since mid-year 2014. These market dynamics have led many to conclude that the energy sector will remain under pressure for a prolonged period. The effects of this protracted downturn are evident in both onshore and offshore operations and throughout the oil and gas supply chain – in both exploration and production.

Due to the significant and rapid downturn in market conditions, the Debtors have seen their oil and gas customers reassess their exploration projects, focus on productivity enhancements, and reduce their capital expenditure plans. Offshore exploration activity has plummeted from its peak in 2013, with the majority of the drop occurring in the six months before the Petition Date. Specifically, as of the Petition Date the global offshore rig count was down 27% since 2013, with deep water rigs down more than 34%. With oil and gas exploration in a lull, many of the Debtors’ customers are using the down cycle to focus only on commitment wells and to perform plug and abandonment work. Overall, CHC’s exploration revenue, which accounted for approximately 10% of CHC’s revenue from the oil and gas industry on the Petition Date, is down significantly in 2016 versus 2014.

On the production side, which accounts for the majority of the Debtors’ revenue from the oil and gas industry, the sustained dip in oil prices has put the supply chains of oil and gas companies under intense pressure. As production revenue has dropped, oil and gas companies have been targeting operational inefficiencies in their supply chains to reduce costs. Pricing on existing contracts and new tenders has declined as these customers have implemented cost reduction measures and have demanded significant price concessions. Customers also have started utilizing less frequent worker rotations and service patterns to increase their productivity of assets and employees, resulting in a reduction in the number of aircraft required for each contract. These improvements in passenger utilization, coupled with the decrease in volume of offshore personnel, have significantly reduced demand for flying hours. In addition, in contrast to its long term lease arrangements with third-party lessors, the Debtors’ customer contracts are typically short-term. In the lead up to the Petition Date, some customers had even started taking advantage of clauses in their contracts that permit termination for convenience as they sought out new contracts on the lowest-price principle from competitors. The Debtors’ customers have been seeking more and more concessions and favorable contract terms as the market for helicopter services continues to shrink. Unlike exploration revenue that may come back as the oil price rebounds, these operational efficiencies on the production side are margin negative for helicopter operators and will likely remain in the supply chain even as market conditions improve.

B. Cost Cutting Measures

In response to the above developments, CHC, among other things, significantly reduced their spending and implemented a series of structural cost-cutting measures. Recognizing the need to take proactive steps in the down market, in early 2015, CHC brought in a new management team with substantial experience and expertise in operations and in the aircraft and leasing industry. The members of this new management team draw on experience from General Electric, International Lease Finance Corporation, and Schlumberger, and the team is led by Chief Executive Officer, Karl Fessenden, who came from General Electric. In the year leading up to the Petition Date, CHC and this new management team achieved reductions in operating expenses of approximately 17% on an FX neutral basis.

 23

These cost reductions were driven by, among other things, a significant reduction in headcount, certain base closures, organizational delayering and centralization of back-office functions, restructuring of the maintenance and engineering teams, and various fleet adjustments. In addition, CHC engaged a consultant to review and provide recommendations to streamline its supply chain and organizational structure, which led to a substantial consolidation of its suppliers along with various process changes. CHC also undertook a strategic review of its direct labor costs, which resulted in changes to its roster patterns, a reduction in travel pay for employees, and a decision to outsource certain non-essential work such as ground operations.

CHC also took steps to reduce its total outstanding long-term obligations through two debt repurchase transactions of Unsecured Notes, which resulted in a reduction of their annual cash requirements by approximately $3.8 million. This reduction complemented the debt redemption and repurchase transactions that the Debtors undertook in fiscal years 2014 and 2015 to reduce their total outstanding long-term debt obligations, which reduced their cash requirements on an annualized basis to approximately $41.9 million.

Despite the best efforts of CHC and its management to actively restructure and reduce their operational and financial costs, the significant and prolonged downturn in market conditions in the oil and gas sector, the cost cutting measures being deployed by their customers, and the related decrease in the Debtors’ revenues and cash flows from operations caused uncertainty regarding the viability of the Debtors’ leveraged capital structure and cash flow structure in the long term.

C. Preserving Liquidity

In addition to the cost cutting measures described above, the Debtors’ also implemented a strict liquidity preservation policy. Consistent with this policy, in January 2016, the Debtors drew the remaining $233 million of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, in April 2016, CHC Parent and CHC SA decided not to make an interest payment of approximately $46 million with respect to the Senior Secured Notes, and to use the 30-day grace period under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture to continue working with their financial and legal advisors to review strategic alternatives for restructuring the Debtors’ debt and leases expenses.

V.
The Chapter 11 Cases

A. Commencement of Chapter 11 Cases and First Day Orders

On the Petition Date, each of the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Chapter 11 Cases were assigned to the Honorable Barbara J. Houser and are being jointly administered for administrative convenience. At the first day hearings, the Debtors obtained interim approval to, among other things, use cash collateral and a centralized cash management system, honor certain prepetition obligations to employees, customer, and taxing authorities, and continue their business in the ordinary course during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. A description of the first day motions is set forth in the Declaration of Robert A. Del Genio in Support of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Petitions and Request for First Day Relief [Docket No. 13], filed on the Petition Date. At a subsequent hearing on June 6, 2016, with the exception of the Debtors’ motions to use cash collateral and operate its centralized cash management system, the Bankruptcy Court approved, on a final basis, the relief granted on an interim basis at the first day hearing. Authorization to use cash collateral and continued use of a centralized cash management system was authorized on an interim basis until December 20, 2016 [Docket Nos. 59, 61, 274, 288, 569–70, 733–34, 831–32, 903, 906, 1144, 1146, and [●]], when the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order on those motions [Docket Nos. [●] and [●]].

 24

The Debtors retained the following advisors in the Chapter 11 Cases: (i) Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, as counsel to the Debtors; (ii) CDG Group, LLC (“CDG”) to provide a chief restructuring officer and additional personnel to the Debtors; (iii) PJT Partners LP (“PJT”) as financial advisor to the Debtors; (iv) Seabury Corporate Advisors LLC (“Seabury”) as financial advisor to the Debtors with regards to aircraft-related issues; (v) Debevoise & Plimpton LLP as special aircraft counsel to the Debtors; (vi) KCC, as both claims and noticing agent as well as the administrative agent to the Debtors; (vii) Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP as accounting and tax advisor to the Debtors; (viii) Ernst & Young LLP as audit services provider to the Debtors; (ix) DLA Piper LLP as special corporate counsel to the Debtors; and (x) Sage-Popovich, Inc. as inventory appraiser to the Debtors. These professionals represent and assist the Debtors in their Chapter 11 Cases. All of their retentions were approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

B. Appointment of the Committee

Pursuant to section 1102(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, on May 13, 2016, the United States Trustee for the Northern District of Texas (the “U.S. Trustee”) appointed the Creditors’ Committee. The following creditors currently serve on the Creditors’ Committee: (i) Global Helicopters Pilots Association, (ii) Airbus Helicopters (SAS) (“Airbus”), (iii) Milestone, (iv) Law Debenture Trust Company, and (v) Sikorsky Commercial, Inc. The Creditors’ Committee is represented by (i) Kramer Levin Naftalis and Frankel LLP, as its counsel, (ii) Gardere Wynne Sewell LLP, as its local counsel, (iii) Greenhill & Co. LLC, as its investment banker, (iv) VLC Associates Ltd., as its financial advisor; and (v) KCC, as its noticing and information agent. These professionals represent and assist the Creditors’ Committee in these Chapter 11 Cases and all of their retentions were approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

Since the formation of the Creditors’ Committee, the Creditors’ Committee has been an active participant in the Chapter 11 Cases as a fiduciary for all unsecured creditors and has worked closely with the Debtors on all aspects of the Chapter 11 Cases. Throughout the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors have worked closely and consulted with the Creditors’ Committee on all matters including the Debtors’ business operations, fleet-related decisions, use of cash collateral, and the Plan.

C. Claims

1. Schedules of Assets and Liabilities and Statements of Financial Affairs

Pursuant to section 521 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 1007(c), the Debtors were required to file, within 14 days after the Petition Date, (i) schedules of assets and liabilities, (ii) a schedule of current income and expenditures, (iii) a schedule of executory contracts and unexpired leases, and (iv) a statement of financial affairs (collectively, the “Schedules”). On the Petition Date the Debtors filed a motion seeking to extend the deadline to file their Schedules by 45 days [Docket No. 5]. Following discussions with the U.S. Trustee, the Debtors modified their request, and the Bankruptcy Court entered an order extending the Debtors’ time to file the Schedules by 16 days beyond the original 14-day period [Docket No. 54]. On May 26, 2016, the Debtors requested a further extension of 30 days, to July 5, 2016 [Docket No. 199]. Following discussions with U.S. Trustee, the Debtors modified that request so that Debtor CHC Cayman Investment I, Ltd. would be required to file its Schedules by May 31, 2016, but all other Debtors would have until July 5, 2016 to file their Schedules. On June 6, 2016 the Bankruptcy Court so ordered [Docket No. 246]. On May 31, 2016, Debtor CHC Cayman Investment I, Ltd. filed its Schedules [Case 16-31859 Docket No. 6]. All of the other Debtors filed their Schedules on July 5, 2016 [Docket Nos. 458–541], with Debtors CHC Parent and Heli-One Canada ULC filing amendments thereto on October 7, 2016 [Docket Nos. 936–37].

 25

2. Claims Bar Date and Notice of Bar Date

On July 8, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (i) establishing August 26, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) as the deadline (the “Bar Date”) for each Person or Entity (including, without limitation, individuals, partnerships, corporations, joint ventures, and trusts, but not including governmental units) to file proofs of claim in respect of prepetition claims against any of the Debtors, and November 1, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) as the deadline for governmental units to file proofs of claim in respect of prepetition claims against any of the Debtors; and (ii) approving certain other related procedures [Docket No. 563]. On September 19, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order establishing October 27, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) as the deadline (the “Supplemental Bar Date”) for certain additional potential claimants that did not receive actual notice of the Bar Date to file proofs of claim [Docket No. 878].

Approximately 1,118 proofs of claim asserting Claims against the Debtors were received by KCC or filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the Bar Date. In addition, the Debtors have scheduled approximately 1,857 liquidated, noncontingent, and undisputed Claims. The aggregate amount of Claims filed and scheduled exceeds approximately $3,869,824,000, including duplication, but excluding any estimated amounts for contingent or unliquidated Claims.⁶

D. Postpetition Operational Matters

1. Repair Order Motion

In late June 2016, the Debtors determined that specific and limited Court relief was needed to pay the prepetition claims of certain suppliers to secure the release of parts essential to the Debtors’ continued operations. Certain parts were shipped to repair shops for repair or maintenance prior to the Petition Date and worked on by the relevant repair shop both prior and subsequent to the Petition Date (the “Straddling Repair Orders”). Many of the repair shops were refusing to ship the repaired parts back to the Debtors unless the relevant Straddling Repair Order invoice was paid in full. Consequently, on July 1, 2016, the Debtors filed a motion for entry of an order (i) authorizing the Debtors to pay certain prepetition amounts for repair shops, shippers, warehousemen, and other lien claimants, and (ii) confirming administrative status for certain parts delivered to the Debtors postpetition [Docket No. 454]. On July 29, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting the Debtors’ request [Docket No. 689].

2. Section 365(d)(4) Extension Motion

On July 29, 2016, the Debtors filed a motion seeking approval of an extension of the time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code [Docket No. 698]. On August 29, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order extending the Debtors’ time to assume or reject unexpired leases of nonresidential real property to December 1, 2016 [Docket No. 805].

⁶ Note: Does not include $1,102,271,688.00 Schedule D claim of The Bank of New York Mellon, the $139,000,000.00 Schedule D claim of Morgan Stanley Senior Lending, Inc., and the $327,500,000.00 Schedule D claim of HSBC Bank PLC as they were scheduled as unliquidated. Additionally, the $10,718,540.94 Schedule F claims of Airbus Helicopters are excluded as well as they were listed as disputed.

 26

3. Boundary Bay Lease Rejection Motion

On November 30, 2016, the Debtors filed a motion seeking authority to reject a lease of real property pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code [Docket No. 1264]. That lease relates to Debtor Heli-One Canada’s leasehold interest in an office building and maintenance facility located at the Boundary Bay airport in Delta, British Columbia (the “Boundary Bay Facility). Pursuant to the terms of the lease, 6922767 Holding S.a.r.l. provided a guaranty of Heli-One Canada’s obligations under the lease. The Debtors examined the lease related to the Boundary Bay Facility and concluded that the current base rent payable under the lease is substantially above market for similar premises and the lease provides for more space than is currently needed by Heli-One Canada’s operations. The Debtors have attempted to renegotiate the lease with the Landlord but were unable to reach a consensual resolution. Accordingly, the Debtors have entered into a new lease for space that is more economical and suitable for Heli-One Canada’s operations and commenced the process to relocate from the Boundary Bay Facility. The Debtors will continue to fulfill their obligations under the lease until they have fully vacated the Boundary Bay Facility. The Debtors’ motion to reject the lease for the Boundary Bay Facility is set for hearing on January 24, 2017, with objections due by January 17, 2017.⁷

4. Section 365 Assumption Motion

On October 28, 2016, the Debtors filed a motion seeking to assume certain unexpired leases of nonresidential real property pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code [Docket No. 1088]. [On November [●], 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Debtors’ request [Docket No. [●]].]

E. Exclusivity

On September 2, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order [Docket No. 829], pursuant to section 1121(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, granting an extension of the Debtors’ exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and solicit acceptances thereof through and including December 1, 2016 and January 30, 2017, respectively, without prejudice to the right of the Debtors to seek further extension of such periods. On October 28, 2016 the Debtors filed a supplemental motion seeking a further 80 day extension of the exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and solicit acceptances thereof through and including February 17, 2017 and April 17, 2017, respectively, without prejudice to the right to seek further extensions of such periods [Docket No. 1089], [which extension was granted by an order of the Bankruptcy Court on December [●], 2016 [Docket No. [●]]].

Certain of the Debtors are incorporated under the laws of the Canadian Province of British Columbia and maintain Assets and operations in that jurisdiction.⁸ As a result of the Debtors’ Assets and operations in Canada, the Debtors sought and received an order [Docket No. 884], pursuant to section 1505 of the Bankruptcy Code, authorizing CHC Parent to act as foreign representative on behalf of the Debtors’ estates.

⁷ The Debtors also sought companion relief in the proceeding in Canada that the rejection motion filed in the Bankruptcy Court is the proper legal process and jurisdiction to address the Boundary Bay Facility lease. [Such motion was heard on December 9, 2016.]

⁸ The Debtors incorporated under the laws of the Canadian Province of British Colombia are CHC Global Operations Canada (2008) ULC, CHC Global Operations International ULC, CHC Global Operations (2008) ULC, Heli-One Leasing ULC, and Heli-One Canada ULC) (collectively, the “Canadian Debtors”).

 27

On September 30, 2016, CHC Parent, as foreign representative, filed a Petition to the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Canadian Court”) under Part IV of the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (the “CCAA”) for an Initial Recognition Order (Foreign Main Proceeding) and a Supplemental Order (Foreign Main Proceeding), seeking, among other things, (i) recognition of the Chapter 11 Cases as “foreign main proceedings” (ii) recognition of CHC Parent as the foreign representative of the Debtors; (iii) recognition of certain orders granted by the Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 Cases; and (iv) a stay of all proceedings against the Canadian Debtors and their directors and officers. The purpose of the CCAA proceeding is to protect the Debtors’ Assets and operations in Canada and help implement the Debtors’ Restructuring. The Canadian Court heard the Debtors’ application on October 11, 2016, and granted the relief requested on October 13, designating the Chapter 11 Cases as foreign main proceedings.

2. Cayman Islands

CHC Parent and certain other Debtors⁹ are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As the Debtors’ Restructuring involves, among other things, the transfer of all Assets of CHC Parent to Reorganized CHC (as more fully described in the Restructuring Transactions attached hereto as Exhibit D), CHC Parent may seek to implement the Plan and the Restructuring Transactions, in part, through ancillary proceedings in the Cayman Islands. Such ancillary proceedings may include a provisional liquidation, an official liquidation, or any other proceeding necessary to effect the Restructuring Transactions.

G. Fleet Negotiations

In connection with the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors have undertaken to formulate a revised fleet plan to address the high cost/weakened revenue environment and their customers’ demands.

In addition to the agreement with the Milestone Parties, which is described in Sections V.K and V.M.6 below, the Debtors identified cost savings to be achieved by returning helicopters and other related equipment to lessors or finance parties that currently are not, or soon will not be, used to generate revenue in the Debtors’ businesses. The Debtors also determined that reducing the number of different helicopter types in their fleet would decrease costs associated with crew training, inventory and maintenance. While achieving these cost savings, the Debtors have also endeavored to meet their customers’ demands for newer technology helicopters by exiting five older technology helicopter types. This reduction and rationalization of the Debtors’ fleet created a significant surplus of helicopters and other related equipment owned and leased by the Debtors. To address this surplus, the Debtors filed a series of motions seeking authorization, pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, to reject certain leases for helicopters and related equipment. Since the Petition Date, the Court has approved the rejection of 74 helicopters. See Docket No. 273, 427, 428, 565, 833, 1042, and 1145.¹⁰ As of the date of this Disclosure Statement, motions for the rejection of another twenty-six (26) helicopters are pending. See Docket Nos. 20, 210, and 1090.

⁹ The Debtors incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands are CHC Parent, CHC ABL Borrower Ltd., CHC ABL Holdings Ltd., and CHC Cayman Investments I Ltd (the “Cayman Debtors”).

¹⁰ On April 29, 2016, an Airbus EC 225 helicopter, or EC 225, operated in Norway by one of the Debtors’ non-debtor affiliates, CHC Helikopter Services AS, was involved in an accident near the Flesland Airport in Bergen, Norway. The EC 225 carried 11 passengers and two crew members. Full investigations into the cause of the accident are being carried out in conjunction with regulators and police authorities. In collaboration with CHC’s stakeholders, customers and regulatory authorities, pending the outcome of the investigation, CHC suspended, together with other operators, flying operations of the EC 225 and AS332 L2 helicopter types. The Bankruptcy Court has approved the rejection of all of the Debtors’ leased EC 225 helicopters. In addition, the Debtors abandoned four (4) owned EC 225 aircraft pursuant to the ABL Abandonment Motion, which results in two (2) remaining owned EC 225 helicopters in CHC’s fleet.

 28

Concurrent with these rejections, the Debtors have also engaged in extensive negotiations with various financing parties to reduce and eliminate the significant costs associated with the continued leasing and operation of helicopters that are to remain in the Debtors’ fleet during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases and upon emergence from bankruptcy. Accordingly, the Debtors entered into several interim term sheets with various financing parties with respect to restructured lease and finance terms for 23 aircraft that are covered by the Debtors’ revised fleet plan. See Docket Nos. 566, 567, 568, 735, 736, and 959. The Debtors and such financing parties are currently engaged in good faith, arms-length negotiations to enter into final definitive restructuring term sheets for these aircraft.

H. The ABL Litigation and Settlement

1. The ABL Litigation

As of the Petition Date, the Debtors had 13 aircraft financed under the ABL Credit Facility, comprised of a combination of Sikorsky S76C++ model helicopters, AgustaWestland AW139 model helicopters, and Airbus AS332L1 and EC225 model helicopters. Due to the fleet resizing and adjustments necessary to align with the Debtors’ revised fleet plan, on June 8, 2016 the Debtors filed a motion seeking authority to abandon all 13 of the aircraft financed by the ABL Credit Facility (the “ABL Abandonment Motion”) [Docket No. 275]. The ABL Abandonment Motion was originally scheduled to be heard on July 7, 2016. After the filing of the ABL Abandonment Motion, the Debtors began negotiating with (i) the ABL Credit Facility Administrative Agent, (ii) the ABL Credit Facility Collateral Agent, (iii) Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, (iv) Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., and (v) Natixis, New York Branch (collectively, the “ABL Lenders”) with respect to the terms of a potential settlement with respect to the ABL Abandonment Motion. To facilitate and continue these negotiations, the Debtors adjourned the hearing on the ABL Abandonment Motion until November 29, 2016 [Docket Nos. 431, 673, 769, 860, and 1078].

On September 30, 2016, the ABL Lenders filed an expedited motion to compel payment of superpriority administrative expenses (the “ABL Administrative Expense Motion”) as adequate protection payments for what the ABL Lenders alleged to be a continuous decline in the value of their Collateral post-petition [Docket No. 924]. The Debtors filed an objection to the ABL Administrative Expense Motion on October 26, 2016 [Docket No. 926]. The ABL Lenders subsequently filed motions for continuance of the ABL Administrative Expense Motion until November 29, 2016, noting progress with respect to a potential settlement with the Debtors [Docket Nos. 1017 and 1076].

2. The ABL Settlement

To facilitate the Debtors’ revised fleet plan, on October 26, 2016 the Debtors and the ABL Lenders agreed to enter into certain transactions pursuant to a binding term sheet (the “ABL Transaction”), the terms of which the Debtors have determined provide them with sufficient fleet flexibility and cost savings for the purposes of their fleet restructuring. The ABL Transaction includes cost savings and flexibility in the form of reductions in the loan principal balance and associated mortgage rates and the easing of certain covenants, while allowing the Debtors to retain eight key aircraft operating on existing customer contracts. The five remaining aircraft in the ABL Credit Facility, comprising of one Sikorsky S76C++ model helicopter and four Airbus EC225 model helicopters, will be abandoned by the Debtors. The ABL Transaction remains subject to final documentation.

 29

On October 27, 2016, the Debtors filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court (the “ABL Transaction Motion”) seeking authority to enter into, among other things, the ABL Transaction pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 6004 and 9019 [Docket No. 1071]. A term sheet setting forth the terms of the ABL Transaction is attached hereto as Exhibit E. By order dated December [●], 2016, the Bankruptcy Court approved the ABL Transaction. By entering into the ABL Transaction, the Debtors are able to (i) avoid costly litigation regarding the treatment of the ABL Lenders’ Collateral, (ii) agree upon the amount and scope of the ABL Lenders’ Administrative Expense Claims and (iii) obtain the flexibility required to “right-size” their fleet in connection with the business plan. In addition, by order dated December [●], 2016, the Bankruptcy Court approved the ABL Abandonment Motion with respect to five (5) of the aircraft under the ABL Credit Facility

Certain elements of the ABL Transaction are set out below:

(a) Existing Aircraft

The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement will cover eight aircraft, comprising a combination of 3 Sikorsky S76C++ model helicopters, 4 AgustaWestland AW139 model helicopters, and 1 Airbus AS332L1 model helicopter, with the following revised terms:

· the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility will have all financial covenants removed and the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility Documents will have amended cross-default provisions;

· the principal balance of the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility will be reduced;

· the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement will be restructured upon a new payment schedule with a balloon payment at expiration; and

· the Debtors will make interim payments to the ABL Lenders for the period from the Petition Date until the Effective Date.

(b) Allowed General Unsecured Claim

The ABL Lenders will receive a separate and distinct, stipulated, non-priority, pre-petition, Allowed General Unsecured Claims against each of the bankruptcy estates of CHC ABL Borrower, CHC Cayman ABL Holdings Ltd., CHC Helicopter Holding S.à r.l., CHC SA, and 6922767 Holding SARL, as borrower and guarantors respectively, under the ABL Credit Agreement, in the amount of $78 million (the “ABL Allowed General Unsecured Claim”), provided that the aggregate total recovery from CHC ABL Borrower, CHC Cayman ABL Holdings Ltd., CHC Helicopter Holding S.à r.l., CHC SA, and 6922767 Holding SARL in respect of the ABL Allowed General Unsecured Claim will not exceed, in the aggregate, $78 million, and will receive distributions pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Plan.

(c) Fees

The ABL Lenders will not receive any additional adequate protection or other payments, other than the fees and expenses already paid by the Debtors to the ABL Lenders (the “ABL Fees”) as of the time of entry into the ABL Transaction. On the Effective Date, the Debtors will make an exit payment to the ABL Lenders (the “ABL Exit Payment”). Other than the ABL Fees, the ABL Exit Payment, and the ABL Allowed General Unsecured Claim, the CHC Parties will have no obligation to make any other payments to the ABL Lenders in connection with the Restructuring.

(d) Releases

The ABL Lenders have agreed to the release and waiver of certain Claims as part of the ABL Transaction, including a waiver of all events of default relating to the Chapter 11 Cases and any losses or Claims arising as a result of the negotiation, preparation, and execution of the documents relating to the ABL Transaction.

I. Adversary Proceedings

1. Element Capital Adversary Proceeding

On November 17, 2016, ECN Capital (Aviation) Corp., also known as Element Capital Corp. (“Element”), filed an adversary proceeding against Airbus in connection with the April 29, 2016 Airbus EC225 crash near the Flesland Airport in Bergen, Norway. [Adversary Proceeding No. 16-03151, Docket. No. 1]. CHC is not named as a defendant in the complaint. Element argues that it is entitled to economic, punitive, and exemplary damages, as well as costs of recovery, maintenance, storage and replacement of the five (5) EC225’s that Element owns, as a result of Airbus’ alleged negligence, defective design, defective manufacturing, failure to warn, violation of implied warranty of merchantability, negligent misrepresentation and/or fraud regarding the allegedly unsafe helicopters. Although Element is not seeking any damages or relief against the Debtors, Element alleges that the outcome of the lawsuit is “likely to impact the CHC Debtors’ estates” in these chapter 11 cases. Element asserts that the Court has jurisdiction over defendant Airbus because Airbus has appeared in the CHC bankruptcy cases, by filing proofs of claims and pleadings, and through its participation as a member of the Creditors’ Committee. As of the date of this Disclosure Statement, the Debtors have not replied to Element’s complaint, and reserve all rights to do so.

2. Sparebank Adversary Proceeding

On August 17, 2016, Sparebank 1 SR-Finans AS and Sparebanken Finans Nord-Norge (collectively, “Sparebank”) filed a complaint (the “Sparebank Adversary Complaint”) against Ironshore Specialty Insurance Company (“Ironshore”) and Debtors CHC SA and Heli-One Leasing (Norway) AS, seeking (i) a declaratory judgment that Ironshore may not take any action to modify, cancel, or otherwise terminate certain residual value insurance policies (together, the “RVI Policies”) insured by Ironshore, based upon the Debtors’ commencement of these cases, (ii) declare that the leases related to three helicopters, and the RVI Policies related thereto, are interests of the Debtors in their bankruptcy cases, and (iii) grant other relief as applicable.  [Adversary Proceeding No. 16-03121, Docket No. 1].  The RVI Policies relate to three (3) helicopters leased by Sparebank to the Debtors, and insured by Ironshore. 

On September 15, 2016, Ironshore filed a motion to dismiss the Sparebank Adversary Complaint on procedural and substantive grounds [Adversary Proceeding No. 16-03121, Docket. No. 8], and also filed a motion to abstain [Adversary Proceeding No. 16-03121, Docket. No. 10] (together, the “Ironshore Motions”). On September 26, 2016, the Debtors filed a limited joinder to Ironshore’s motion to dismiss, solely with respect to the arguments that (i) the Court lacks jurisdiction to adjudicate the Sparebank Adversary Complaint, and (ii) the Court should abstain from adjudicating the Sparebank Adversary Complaint [Adversary Proceeding No. 16-03121, Docket. No. 12].

A hearing on the Ironshore Motions is currently scheduled for December 19, 2016.

J. Collateral Analysis

In accordance with the Creditors’ Committee’s duties as a fiduciary for unsecured creditors, shortly after its appointment, the Creditors’ Committee commenced a comprehensive investigation into the asserted Claims and Liens of the Prepetition Secured Lenders (i.e., the Revolving Credit Facility Lenders and the holders of Senior Secured Notes) to identify any unencumbered Assets that could potentially inure for the benefit of unsecured creditors. The Creditors’ Committee’s investigation focused on determining the scope and validity of the Prepetition Secured Lenders’ asserted Liens on the following categories of Assets: aircraft, rotables, major spare parts, deposit accounts, Cash, inventory, equity stock, accounts receivable, intercompany Claims, intellectual property, and certain other miscellaneous Assets. Given that the Debtors’ operations and Assets are located in many jurisdictions throughout the world, the Creditors’ Committee’s investigation necessarily involved the review and analysis of documentation governed by the laws of, the following jurisdictions: Australia, Barbados, Canada, Ireland, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States (collectively, the “Security Jurisdictions”). Over the course of several months, the Creditors’ Committee worked with local counsel in the Security Jurisdictions, as well as with the Debtors and their advisors, to identify whether the Prepetition Secured Lenders’ Shared Collateral, with respect to each of the above listed categories of Assets, was granted and perfected in accordance with the specific requirements of the applicable Security Jurisdictions.

Based on the results of this diligence, the Creditors’ Committee identified potential issues regarding the asserted Claims and Liens of the Prepetition Secured Lenders that the Creditors’ Committee believes could have been the subject of successful challenges and litigation. The Prepetition Secured Lenders challenged the Creditors’ Committee’s findings with respect to the Shared Collateral and raised several alternative conclusions. While the Creditors’ Committee remained confident in its findings, it recognized that disputes over these issues would require complex, costly, and time-consuming litigation. Accordingly and as described in more detail in Section V.M.2 below, the Creditors’ Committee decided to negotiate a settlement with the Debtors and the holders of Senior Secured Notes that included, among other things, a settlement as to the validity, extent and priority of the Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes.

K. Fleet Reconfiguration Strategy

In connection with the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors began to formulate a revised business plan to address the high cost and weakened revenue environment impacting the Debtors’ performance. As a key component of that business plan and of the chapter 11 process, the Debtors designed a comprehensive fleet reconfiguration strategy. As described in Section V.G above, the Debtors identified cost savings to be achieved through a significant reduction in the CHC Prepetition Fleet by eliminating non-revenue generating helicopters and other related equipment. The Debtors also determined that they needed a significant reduction in lease-related expenses for remaining helicopters.

In furtherance of this strategy, the Debtors determined that they would need to enter into a lease restructuring with one or more primary lessors with respect to aircraft that will remain in the fleet. Such primary lessor(s) would provide the Debtors with flexibility to shorten the terms of leased helicopters, provide savings in respect of lease rates and lease terms (for example, by making the return conditions for the helicopters less onerous and by returning certain aircraft), and potentially provide financing for the acquisition and/or refinancing of helicopters in the future.

The Debtors commenced negotiations with two of their largest lessors regarding potential lease restructuring transactions that would provide the Debtors with the necessary flexibility and cost savings to reach the goals set forth in the new fleet plan. The Debtors engaged in several rounds of parallel negotiations with the two lessors, engaging in multiple in-person and telephonic negotiation sessions and exchanging numerous drafts of term sheets and indicative proposals.

 32

These negotiations culminated in an agreement between the Debtors and the Milestone Parties for an overall transaction that the Debtors have determined provides the Debtors with fleet and cost adjustments necessary to achieve the goals of and implement the Debtors’ fleet restructuring. Under this agreement, Milestone will serve as the lead lessor for the Debtors’ go-forward fleet of helicopters. As described in more detail in Section V.M.6 below, included in the cost savings and flexibility are restructuring of lease rentals, agreed return of certain helicopters, the lease of additional helicopters‎, and a new debt facility for the acquisition and/or refinancing of certain aircraft.

In addition, the Debtors advanced discussions with Waypoint Leasing Holdings Ltd., engaging in multiple in-person and telephonic negotiation sessions to reach an agreement in principle on a proposal for an overall transaction that the Debtors believe will provide them with significant flexibility in their fleet and cost savings, consistent with their overall fleet restructuring goals. Upon completion of a definitive term sheet, the transaction will be submitted to the Bankruptcy Court for approval. With this agreement in principle, and upon approval of the definitive term sheet in these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors will have reached a favorable result with both of their largest lessors consistent with the goals set forth in the Debtors’ business plan.

L. New Money Investor Strategy

At the outset of these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors’ financial advisor, PJT, commenced a marketing process to identify parties interested in providing the Debtors with new capital. PJT contacted approximately 20 potential investors and received approximately 25 inbound inquiries. PJT sent nondisclosure agreements (“NDAs”) to approximately 25 of these potential investors, of which approximately 15 executed NDAs. A handful of these potential investors engaged in diligence calls with the Debtors’ advisors. Ultimately, none of these third parties were interested in submitting a formal proposal to the Debtors.

In parallel to the third party marketing process described above, the Debtors and their advisors also engaged with members of the Debtors’ existing capital structure regarding a potential new money investment. These discussions in the first instance were primarily with (i) a group of holders of Senior Secured Notes that would ultimately become the Plan Sponsors and (ii) another stakeholder (whose name the Debtors are not permitted to disclose due to confidentiality restrictions). These parties entered into long-term NDAs, participated in several meetings with the Debtors’ management and advisors regarding the Debtors’ business plan, and undertook extensive diligence on the Debtors. Following these discussions and diligence sessions, in late June, the Plan Sponsors provided the Debtors with an initial new money proposal. The other bidder submitted its initial proposal in July.

Over the next several weeks, the Debtors and their advisors continued to engage in discussions with both bidders in an effort to improve their proposals. The Debtors also encouraged each bidder to engage with other members of the Debtors’ capital structure, including the Creditors’ Committee and certain lenders party to the Revolving Credit Agreement, to build broader consensus and refine the terms of their proposals in a way that would provide for a global settlement among all or a portion of the Debtors’ key creditor groups. Through this competitive process, the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee were able to significantly advance the terms of each proposal, resulting in two new money proposals, each of which would have provided increased liquidity sufficient to fully fund the Debtors’ business plan upon emergence from chapter 11.

After extensive analysis and consultation with their advisors, the Debtors determined, in their business judgment, that the Plan Sponsors’ proposal was superior to the alternative proposal that they received for several reasons, including, without limitation: (i) it ultimately provided greater deleveraging of the Debtors’ balance sheet, (ii) it resulted in lower fixed interest charges on the Debtors’ restructured debt, (iii) it was supported by holders representing or holding approximately 67.56% of the Senior Secured Notes (the Debtors’ largest creditor), approximately 73.56% of the holders representing or holding Unsecured Notes, as well as by Milestone (the Debtors’ largest lessor), (iv) it minimized the litigation risk associated with prosecuting the Debtors’ plan of reorganization, and (v)  it represented the best path toward an efficient and highly-consensual emergence from chapter 11.

 33

The Debtors and the Plan Sponsors, together with the other Consenting Creditor Parties, spent considerable time engaged in extensive negotiations—including multiple meetings, calls and exchanges of term sheets—to finalize and document the terms of the Plan Support Agreement and the other agreements and term sheets attached thereto.

M. Motion to Approve the Plan Support Agreement and the Backstop Agreement

1. Overview

The Plan Support Agreement memorializes the essential terms of the consensual Restructuring agreed between the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties, which terms have been incorporated into the Plan. On October 11, 2016, the Debtors filed the Support Agreements Approval Motion, which requests an order authorizing the Debtors to enter into the Plan Support Agreement and the Backstop Agreement. On November 3, 2016, the Debtors filed amendments to the Plan Support Agreement, the Backstop Agreement, and the Milestone Term Sheet [Docket No. 1129], pursuant to which the dates of certain milestones were adjusted to align with certain hearing dates set with the Bankruptcy Court.

On November 10, 2016, (i) the U.S. Trustee for Region 6, (ii) Angelo, Gordon & Co. and Cross Ocean Partners, and (iii) BNP Paribas S.A. and HSBC France S.A. filed objections to the Support Agreements Approval Motion [Docket Nos. 1163, 1164, and 1168].

[On December [●], 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Support Agreements Approval Order granting the relief requested in the Support Agreements [Docket No. [●]].]

2. The Plan Support Agreement

On October 11, 2016, the Debtors entered into the Plan Support Agreement with the Consenting Creditor Parties regarding the terms of the Restructuring. Under the Plan Support Agreement, each of the Consenting Creditor Parties (except for the Creditors’ Committee) agreed to, among other things, and subject to certain conditions: (i) vote any Claim it holds against the Debtors to accept the Plan and not (a) change or withdraw (or cause to be changed or withdrawn) its vote to accept the Plan, (b) object to, delay, impede, or take any other action to interfere with acceptance or implementation of the Plan, or (c) directly or indirectly seek, solicit, negotiate, encourage, propose, file, support, participate in the formulation of, or vote for, any restructuring, sale of assets, merger, workout or plan of reorganization for any of the Debtors other than the Plan; and (ii) condition any transfer of its Claims against the Debtors to the transferee thereof being an existing Consenting Creditor Party or becoming party to the Plan Support Agreement. Under the Plan Support Agreement, the Creditors’ Committee agreed to support the confirmation and consummation of the Plan and to submit a letter recommending that unsecured creditors vote in favor of the Plan.

As described in more detail above, the Plan Support Agreement encompasses a global settlement of any and all potential contested issues among the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties pursuant to section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, including, without limitation:

· the amount, value, and treatment of ABL Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, and Unsecured Notes Claims against the Debtors;

 34

· the validity, extent and priority of the Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes;

· the value of the Debtors’ encumbered and unencumbered Assets;

· any potential adequate protection or diminution in value Claims by the holders of Senior Secured Notes;

· any potential Claims to surcharge Collateral under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

· the allocation of distributable value among the various creditor classes; and

· the Equity Value and the total enterprise value of the reorganized company premised upon the Debtors remaining as a going concern, which is conditioned upon the $300 million new money investment.

Pursuant to the Plan Support Agreement, holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims that are Eligible Offerees will have the opportunity to participate in the $300 million Rights Offering, with Subscription Rights to participate in $280 million of the Rights Offering (which equates to 74.41% of the New Membership Interests issuable upon conversion of such New Second Lien Convertible Notes on a fully diluted basis (but subject to dilution for the Management Incentive Plan) as of the Effective Date (i.e., $404,444,444 face amount of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as of the Effective Date)) allocated to the holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims (the “Senior Secured Notes Subscription Rights”) and $20 million of the Rights Offering (which equates to 5.32% of the New Membership Interests issuable upon conversion of such New Second Lien Convertible Notes on a fully diluted basis (but subject to dilution for the Management Incentive Plan) as of the Effective Date (i.e., $28,888,889 face amount of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as of the Effective Date)) allocated to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims (the “Unsecured Notes Subscription Rights”). To the extent a holder of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim is a Non-Eligible Offeree, such holder will be entitled to receive a Substitute Distribution as further described in Section XIII.F below. Any unclaimed portion of New Membership Interests otherwise available to Non-Eligible Offerees holding either Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims or Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims shall be distributed Pro Rata to all holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, respectively. In addition to the Subscription Rights just described, (i) all holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims will receive their Pro Rata share of 79.5% of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to 11.6% of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan); (ii) all holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims will receive their Pro Rata share of 8.9% of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to 1.3% of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan). In consideration for the above treatment, holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims have agreed, pursuant to the terms of the Plan Support Agreement and as part of the overall settlement contained therein, to waive their rights to any recoveries on account of their Senior Secured Notes Deficiency Claims.

 35

As more fully described in Section I.8 hereof, all holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims will receive a share of (i) 11.6% of the New Membership Interests, prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan (which equates to 1.7% of the New Membership Interests, after dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date), but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan) and (ii) up to $37.5 million in New Unsecured Notes, less the amount of the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount.

The Plan also provides for Cash distributions up to the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount (i.e., up to $750,000) to holders of any Claim against the Debtors that would otherwise be an Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claim that is (i) Allowed in the Convenience Claim Amount (i.e., $100,000, or such greater amount as may be agreed to among the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee) or less, or (ii) irrevocably reduced to the Convenience Claim Amount at the election of the holder of the Claim evidenced on the Ballot submitted by such holder; provided, however, that a Primary General Unsecured Claim may not be subdivided into multiple Claims of the Convenience Claim Amount or less for purposes of receiving treatment as a Convenience Claim; provided, further, however that, to the extent that a holder of a Convenience Claim against a Debtor holds any joint and several liability claims, guaranty claims, or other similar claims against any other Debtors arising from or relating to the same obligations or liability as such Convenience Claim, such holder shall only be entitled to a distribution on one Convenience Claim against the Debtors in full and final satisfaction of all such Claims. Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims are not eligible to be treated as Convenience Claims. For the avoidance of doubt, a holder of a Convenience Claim is not eligible to receive a distribution on account of any Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims related to such Convenience Claim, and such Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims will not be counted for either voting or distribution purposes.

Under the Plan Support Agreement, the Debtors agreed, among other things, and subject to certain conditions, to: (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to expeditiously prepare the requisite Restructuring Documents (as defined in the Plan Support Agreement), (ii) timely provide certain Consenting Creditor Parties with the opportunity to comment on and review the Restructuring Documents consistent with the approval rights granted to such parties under the terms of the Plan Support Agreement, (iii) support and take such actions as are necessary or appropriate or reasonably requested by the Consenting Creditor Parties to further the consummation of the Restructuring and confirmation of the Plan, including commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any and all required regulatory and/or third party approvals necessary, if any, for the Restructuring, (iv) operate the businesses of the Debtors in the ordinary course and consistent with past practice and the business plan of the Debtors; (v) not modify the Plan or any of the Restructuring Documents or take any action or file any motion, notice, pleading or other Restructuring Document with the Bankruptcy Court that is inconsistent with the Plan Support Agreement, the Plan or any other Restructuring Document, (vi) not directly or indirectly seek, solicit, negotiate, encourage, propose, file, support, consent to, pursue, initiate, assist, participate in the formulation of, or enter into any agreements relating to any restructuring, sale of assets, merger, workout or plan of reorganization for any of the Debtors other than the Plan, and (vii) not take certain other actions during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, including actions that would challenge the validity, enforceability or priority of the claims related to the Senior Secured Notes or otherwise affect the rights or Claims of the Consenting Creditor Parties.

 36

The Plan Support Agreement is terminable by the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties under certain circumstances, such as: (a) the termination of the Backstop Agreement, (b) the termination of the consensual use of cash collateral under the Final Cash Collateral Order, or (c) the failure to meet certain milestone dates with respect to (i) obtaining an order from the Bankruptcy Court approving the Plan Support Agreement, (ii) filing the Plan and this Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court, (iii) commencing solicitation of votes on the Plan and Rights Offering, and (iv) obtaining the entry of a Final Order confirming the Plan. Additionally, the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee may take or not take actions consistent with their fiduciary obligations under applicable law, including terminating the Plan Support Agreement. As set forth in the Plan Support Agreement, upon the occurrence of a termination event, the Debtors and/or the Requisite Plan Sponsors, as applicable, have the right to terminate the Plan Support Agreement as to all parties. However, the Individual Creditor Parties, the Milestone Parties, the Additional Consenting Creditors, and the Creditors’ Committee may only terminate the Plan Support Agreement as to themselves. Additionally, the Plan Support Agreement terminates automatically without any further required action or notice on the Effective Date. Finally, the Plan Support Agreement and the obligations of the Debtors and the Consenting Creditor Parties may be terminated by mutual agreement among the Debtors, the Requisite Plan Sponsors, and the Creditors’ Committee.

3. Rights Offering and New Second Lien Convertible Notes

4. The Backstop Agreement

On October 11, 2016, in connection with the Plan Support Agreement, CHC Parent entered into the Backstop Agreement pursuant to which certain of the Plan Sponsors and the Individual Creditor Parties, as Backstop Parties, agreed to severally, and not jointly, undertake the Backstop Commitment to backstop the Rights Offering.

 40

Subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, to compensate the Backstop Parties for the risk of their undertakings in the Backstop Agreement and as consideration for the Backstop Commitment, CHC Parent has agreed to pay, or, as applicable, to have Reorganized CHC pay, to the Backstop Parties in the aggregate, a nonrefundable aggregate put option premium payable on the Effective Date in additional New Second Lien Convertible Notes in a principal amount of approximately $30.8 million (the “Put Option Premium”); provided, however, if the Backstop Agreement is terminated due to a Put Option Premium Triggering Event (as defined in the Backstop Agreement), the Backstop Agreement will immediately terminate and the Put Option Premium will become fully due and payable in Cash in two equal installments of approximately $10.665 million (representing a total aggregate amount of approximately $21.33 million), the first Cash payment becoming due immediately upon termination of the Backstop Agreement and the second Cash payment becoming payable upon the consummation of any other plan of reorganization, sale, or restructuring transaction. In the event that the Backstop Agreement is terminated solely as a result of a breach of either the Backstop Agreement or the Plan Support Agreement by a Backstop Party, such breaching Backstop Party will not be entitled to its share of the Put Option Premium. The Put Option Premium will be payable, Pro Rata, to all Backstop Parties (except for any Defaulting Backstop Parties (as defined below)) based on each Backstop Parties’ respective Backstop Percentage.

To the extent one or more Backstop Parties default in their Backstop Commitment obligations (a “Defaulting Backstop Party”) (after having not cured such default within two business days after the receipt of a notice from the Debtors of such default) (such portion of the unsubscribed notes which is not subscribed for and purchased by the Defaulting Backstop Party(ies), the “Unfulfilled Backstop Commitments”) each of the other Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, have agreed to subscribe for and purchase, at an aggregate purchase price of up to $20 million therefor, its Backstop Percentage (as adjusted upwards to eliminate the Backstop Percentage of the Defaulting Backstop Party(ies)) of the Unfulfilled Backstop Commitments, up to an aggregate principal amount of approximately $28.89 million for all non-defaulting Backstop Parties. So long as the Backstop Parties have provided Backstop Commitments of at least $250 million as the aggregate purchase price for the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $361.1 million of New Second Lien Convertible Notes to be issued), taking into account the fulfillment of the obligation to satisfy Unfulfilled Backstop Commitments and any other replacement due to any Backstop Party default, the Debtors may elect to still consummate the transactions contemplated by the Backstop Agreement and the Plan.

The Backstop Agreement is terminable under several conditions by CHC Parent and/or the Backstop Parties holding more than 50% of the Backstop Commitment (excluding the Backstop Commitments held by a Defaulting Backstop Party, the “Requisite Backstop Parties”). The termination provisions of the Backstop Agreement include, among other things, the termination of the Plan Support Agreement and the termination of the Backstop Agreement by the Requisite Backstop Parties due to a failure by the Debtors to meet certain milestone dates consistent with those under the Plan Support Agreement. Those termination triggers include: (i) failure to obtain entry of the Support Agreements Approval Order by the Bankruptcy Court on or before December 21, 2016, (ii) failure to file the Plan and Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court on or before November 11, 2016, (iii) failure to obtain entry of an order approving the Disclosure Statement and the Rights Offering Procedures by the Bankruptcy Court on or before December 22, 2016, and (iv) failure to obtain the entry of the Confirmation Order that is a Final Order by March 17, 2017 In addition to the Requisite Backstop Parties’ rights to terminate, CHC Parent may also terminate the Backstop Agreement for a breach (other than an immaterial breach) by the Backstop Parties; provided, however, that CHC Parent may not terminate the Backstop Agreement for a breach by the Backstop Parties to the extent that Backstop Parties have agreed to provide their Backstop Commitments in an aggregate amount of $300 million within the applicable cure periods.

 41

5. The New Unsecured Notes

Under the Plan Support Agreement, in addition to the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, Reorganized CHC has agreed to issue up to $37.5 million in New Unsecured Notes which will have a seven year maturity and an interest rate of 5.0%, payable in kind until the conversion of all of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and thereafter payable in Cash. The New Unsecured Notes, less the amount of the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount, will be distributed to Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims.

Other than as noted below, the terms of the New Unsecured Notes are set forth in New Unsecured Notes Term Sheet annexed to the Plan Term Sheet as Exhibit E, and include:

Term	Description
Issuer	Reorganized CHC.
Guarantors	Same as under the New Convertible Second Lien Notes and any credit facility provided as consideration on account of the Claims of the holders of Allowed Revolving Credit Agreement Claims or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Plan Sponsors, the Debtors, and the Creditors’ Committee.
Principal Amount	$37.5 million, subject to an agreed upon reduction in the amount of the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount (if any).
Initial Holders	On or after the Effective Date, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Plan, holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims shall each receive their share of the New Unsecured Notes.

Interest	5% per annum, payable quarterly interest will be payable in kind until the earlier of the maturity (or accelerated maturity) of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes or conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, after which the interest on the New Unsecured Notes shall be payable in Cash.  In the event that the change from interest paid in kind to interest paid in Cash occurs in the middle of an interest period, the accrued interest will be prorated and will be payable in kind for such period pre-conversion and in Cash for such period post-conversion.
Default Rate	Upon and during the continuance of any event of default, interest shall accrue at a rate of 7.0% per annum, payable in Cash regardless of whether the New Second Lien Convertible Notes have converted.
Maturity	The date that is 7 years after the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”).

 42

Term	Description
Prepayments	Upon a change in control or initial public offering of the Reorganized CHC, the Issuer must offer to purchase all of the outstanding New Unsecured Notes at 101% of the outstanding principal amount thereof plus all accrued and unpaid interest.  Except as otherwise stated in the prior sentence, the New Unsecured Notes may be prepaid or redeemed in whole or in part at any time, without premium or penalty.
Affirmative and Negative Covenants	Same as New Second Lien Convertible Notes.
Financial Covenants	None.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction	New York

6. Milestone Transaction

The Plan Support Agreement also encompasses an agreement with the Milestone Parties (the “Milestone Transaction”), which provides for a restructuring of the Debtors’ aircraft fleet leasing arrangements and the provision of the PK Financing Facility, a new $150 million asset-backed debt facility for the acquisition and/or refinancing of certain aircraft. Under the Milestone Transaction, Milestone will serve as the lead lessor for the Debtors go-forward fleet of helicopters. The key terms of the Milestone Transaction are set forth in the Milestone Term Sheet annexed to the Plan Support Agreement as Exhibit C and as the same may be amended from time to time, and include:

(i) the restructuring of lease rentals for certain helicopters that will remain in the Debtors’ fleet pursuant to the Definitive Restructuring Documents (as defined in the Milestone Term Sheet);

(ii) the consensual return of certain helicopters;

(iii) an option to extend the lease term for certain of the helicopters;

(iv) amendments to the return conditions for certain of the helicopters;

(v) provision of a new $150 million committed debt facility for the acquisition and/or refinancing of certain aircraft in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the commitment letter by PK Transportation Finance Ireland Limited (“PK”) to the Debtors annexed as Exhibit B to the Milestone Term Sheet (the “PK Financing Commitment Letter”);

 43

(vi) the lease of additional helicopters at market lease rates;

(vii) agreement on certain administrative expense claims;

(viii) agreement on the Milestone Parties’ General Unsecured Claims;

(ix) payment or reimbursement of the expenses of PK provided for in the PK Financing Commitment Letter (the “PK Expenses”);

(x) payment of $420,000 to the Milestone Parties, which is to be paid 10 business days after entrance of the Support Agreements Approval Order and credited to the professional fees of all advisors to the Milestone Parties incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Milestone Term Sheet, and payment of $500,000 to the Milestone Parties for legal fees incurred in respect of the Plan Support Agreement, which is to be paid 10 business days after entrance of the Support Agreements Approval Order (collectively, and together with the PK Expenses, the “Milestone Expenses”); and

(xi) payment of a transaction fee in the aggregate amount of $4.25 million (the “Milestone Transaction Fee”), payable in two installments: (i) $3.25 million payable 10 business days after entry of the Support Agreements Approval Order, and (ii) $1 million payable on the Effective Date.

The Milestone Term Sheet provides the Debtors with flexibility, the ability to lease additional helicopters‎, and a new debt facility for the acquisition and/or refinancing of certain aircraft, and therefore is critical for the Debtors’ ongoing operations. The Milestone Term Sheet also avoids potential complex and costly claim litigation involving both potential unsecured and administrative expense claims asserted by the Milestone Parties in connection with certain aircraft, while enabling the Debtors to continue to use Milestone’s aircraft pursuant to restructured lease agreements. Upon entry of the Support Agreements Approval Order, the Milestone Parties will be entitled to an agreed Administrative Expense Claim, while agreeing to release all other potential Claims regarding the Existing Facility Documents (as defined in the Milestone Term Sheet) or any transaction contemplated thereby and attributable to the period prior to the Petition Date. In addition, upon the Effective Date, the Milestone Parties will be entitled to an Allowed General Unsecured Claim as set forth on Exhibit C to the Milestone Term Sheet. [The Allowed General Unsecured Claim set forth on Exhibit C to the Milestone Term Sheet was stipulated to by the Debtors upon the entry of the Support Agreements Approval Order.] However, in the event that the Plan does not become effective, the Plan Support Agreement provides that the Milestone General Unsecured Claim will become Allowed thirty (30) days after March 17, 2017 without further order of the Court unless the Creditors’ Committee has objected to such Claim by such date.

7. Management Incentive Plan

The Plan contemplates a Management Incentive Plan that reserves ten percent (10%) of the New Membership Interests on a fully diluted basis for distribution to management. The material terms of the Management Incentive Plan will be included in a document to be filed as part of the Plan Supplement.

 44

VI.
Summary Of The Plan

This section of the Disclosure Statement summarizes the Plan, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit B. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan.

 YOU SHOULD READ THE PLAN IN ITS ENTIRETY
BEFORE VOTING TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN.

A. Administrative Expense and Priority Claims

1. Treatment of Administrative Expense Claims

Except with respect to Professional Fee Claims and Priority Tax Claims, and to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Administrative Expense Claim and the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, agree to a less favorable treatment, on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, each holder of an Allowed Administrative Expense Claim will receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed Claim, Cash in an amount equal to the Allowed amount of such Claim; provided, that Allowed Administrative Expense Claims that arise in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business including Administrative Expense Claims arising from or with respect to the sale of goods or services on or after the Petition Date, will be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of any orders or agreements governing, instruments evidencing, or other documents relating to such transactions, without further action by the holders of such Administrative Expense Claims or further approval by the Bankruptcy Court.

2. Treatment of Professional Fee Claims

All Professional Persons seeking payment of Professional Fee Claims will file, no later than sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, their respective applications for final allowances of compensation for services rendered and reimbursement of expenses incurred. After notice and a hearing in accordance with the procedures established by the Bankruptcy Code and prior orders of the Bankruptcy Court, the Allowed amounts of such Professional Fee Claims will be determined by the Bankruptcy Court and will be paid in full, in Cash. The Reorganized Debtors will be authorized to pay compensation for professional services rendered and reimbursement of expenses incurred after the Confirmation Date in the ordinary course and without the need for Bankruptcy Court approval. For the avoidance of doubt, this treatment will not be applicable to any Restructuring Expenses, which will be paid pursuant to Section 5.23 of the Plan.

3. Treatment of Priority Tax Claims

Except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim and the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, agree to a less favorable treatment, on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, each holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim will receive, at the option of the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed Priority Tax Claim, (i) Cash in an amount equal to the Allowed amount of such Claim, (ii) equal annual installment payments in Cash, of a total value, as of the Effective Date, equal to the Allowed amount of such Claim, over a period ending not later than five (5) years after the Petition Date, or (iii) treatment in a manner not less favorable than the most favored non-priority unsecured claim provided for by the Plan; provided, that Allowed Priority Tax Claims that arise in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business, will be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of any orders or agreements governing, instruments evidencing, or other documents relating to such transactions, including the Plan, without further action by the holders of such Administrative Expense Claims or further approval by the Bankruptcy Court.

 45

B. Classification of Claims and Interests

1. Classification in General

A Claim or Interest is placed in a particular Class for all purposes, including voting, confirmation, and distribution under the Plan and under sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, that a Claim or Interest is placed in a particular Class for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Plan only to the extent that such Claim or Interest is an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest in that Class and such Claim or Interest has not been satisfied, released, or otherwise settled prior to the Effective Date.

A Claim or Interest will be deemed classified in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of that Class, and will be deemed classified in a different Class to the extent that any remainder of such Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of such different Class, provided, however, that any Claim classified in Class 7 shall not be classified in any other Class.

2. Grouping of Debtors for Convenience Only

The Plan groups the Debtors together solely for the purpose of describing treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan and confirmation of the Plan. Although the Plan applies to all of the Debtors, the Plan constitutes forty-three (43) distinct chapter 11 plans, one for each Debtor, and for voting and distribution purposes, each Class of Claims will be deemed to contain sub-classes for each of the Debtors, to the extent applicable. To the extent there are no Allowed Claims or Interest with respect to a particular Debtor, such Class is deemed to be omitted with respect to such Debtor. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, to the extent a holder has a Claim that may be asserted against more than one Debtor, the vote of such holder in connection with such Claims will be counted as a vote of such Claim against each Debtor against which such holder has a Claim. The grouping of the Debtors in this manner will not affect any Debtor’s status as a separate legal Entity, change the organizational structure of the Debtors’ business enterprise, constitute a change of control of any Debtor for any purpose, cause a merger of consolidation of any legal Entities, or cause the transfer of any Assets, and, except as otherwise provided by or permitted under the Plan, all Debtors will continue to exist as separate legal Entities.

3. Summary of Classification of Claims and Interests

The following table designates the Classes of Claims against and Interests in each Debtor and specifies which Classes are: (a) Impaired and Unimpaired under the Plan; (b) entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan in accordance with section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (c) deemed to accept or reject the Plan with respect to such Debtor:

 46

Class	Type of Claim or Interest	Impairment	Entitled to Vote
Class 1	Other Priority Claims	Unimpaired	No (Deemed to accept)
Class 2	Other Secured Claims	Unimpaired	No (Deemed to accept)
Class 3	Revolving Credit Agreement Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 4	ABL Credit Agreement Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 5	Senior Secured Notes Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 6	Unsecured Notes Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 7	General Unsecured Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 8	Convenience Claims	Impaired	Yes
Class 9	Intercompany Claims	Unimpaired	No (Deemed to accept)
Class 10	Existing CHC Interests	Impaired	No (Deemed to reject)
Class 11	Intercompany Interests	Unimpaired	No (Deemed to accept)

4. Separate Classification of Other Secured Claims

Although all Other Secured Claims have been placed in one Class for purposes of nomenclature within the Plan, each Other Secured Claim, to the extent secured by a Lien on Collateral different from the Collateral securing another Other Secured Claim, will be treated as being in a separate sub-Class for the purposes of receiving Plan Distributions.

5. Elimination of Vacant Classes

With respect to each Debtor, any Class that, as of the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, does not have at least one holder of a Claim or Interest that is Allowed in an amount greater than zero for voting purposes will be considered vacant, deemed eliminated from the Plan for purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan, and disregarded for purposes of determining whether the Plan satisfies section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such Class.

6. Voting Classes; Presumed Acceptance by Non-Voting Classes

With respect to each Debtor, if a Class contains Claims eligible to vote and no holder of Claims eligible to vote in such Class votes to accept or reject the Plan, the Plan will be presumed accepted by the holders of such Claims in such Class.

 47

7. Voting; Presumptions; Solicitation

(a) Acceptance by Certain Impaired Classes

Only holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. An Impaired Class of Claims will have accepted the Plan if (i) the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) in amount of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such Class have voted to accept the Plan and (ii) the holders of more than one-half (1/2) in number of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such Class have voted to accept the Plan. Holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will receive ballots containing detailed voting instructions.

(b) Deemed Acceptance by Unimpaired Classes

Holders of Claims and Interests in Classes 1, 2, 9, and 11 are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, such holders are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

(c) Deemed Rejection by Certain Impaired Classes

Holders of Existing CHC Interests in Class 10 are conclusively deemed to have rejected the Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. Holders of Existing CHC Interests are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

8. Cramdown

If any Class of Claims entitled to vote on the Plan does not vote to accept the Plan, the Debtors will either (a) seek confirmation of the Plan under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (b) amend or modify the Plan in accordance with the terms thereof and the Bankruptcy Code.

9. No Waiver

Nothing contained in the Plan will be construed to waive a Debtor’s or other Person’s right to object on any basis to any Claim.

C. Treatment of Claims and Interests

1. Class 1: Other Priority Claims

The legal, equitable, and contractual rights of the holders of Allowed Other Priority Claims are unaltered by the Plan. Except to the extent that a holder of an Allowed Other Priority Claim and the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, or the Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, agree to a less favorable treatment, on the later of the Effective Date and the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date such Other Priority Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, each holder of an Allowed Other Priority Claim will receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed Other Priority Claim, at the option of the Debtors, with consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, or the Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, (i) Cash in an amount equal to the Allowed amount of such Claim or (ii) other treatment consistent with the provisions of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, that Other Priority Claims that arise in the ordinary course of the Debtors’ business, will be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in the ordinary course of business, and in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of any orders or agreements governing, instruments evidencing, or other documents relating to such transactions without further action by the holders of such Other Priority Claims or further approval by the Bankruptcy Court.

 48

20. Settlement of Claims and Controversies

Pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, and in consideration for the Plan Distributions and other benefits provided under the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will constitute a good faith compromise and settlement of all Claims and controversies relating to the rights that a holder of a Claim or Interest may have with respect to such Claim or Interest or any Plan Distribution on account thereof, including (i) the amount, value, and treatment of ABL Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, and Unsecured Notes Claims against the Debtors; (ii) the validity, extent and priority of the Liens securing the Senior Secured Notes; (iii) the value of the Debtors’ encumbered and unencumbered Assets; (iv) any potential adequate protection or diminution in value Claim by the holders of Senior Secured Notes; (v) any potential Claim to surcharge Collateral under section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code; (vi) the allocation of distributable value among the creditor classes; and (vii) the Equity Value and the total enterprise value of the reorganized company premised upon the Debtors remaining as a going concern, which is conditioned upon the $300 million new money investment.

The entry of the Confirmation Order will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval, as of the Effective Date, of each of the compromises and settlements embodied in the Plan, and the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that all such compromises or settlements are: (i) in the best interest of the Debtors, the Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, and their respective property and stakeholders; and (ii) fair, equitable and within the range of reasonableness. The provisions of the Plan, including, without limitation, its release, injunction, exculpation and compromise provisions, are mutually dependent.

21. Limited Consolidation for Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution

Consistent with Section 5.20 of the Plan, the Plan provides for recoveries on account of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims in Class 7 from the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution, regardless of the Debtor entity against which such Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims are asserted. The Debtors will not be consolidated for any other purpose. To the extent necessary, the Plan will serve as a motion seeking, and entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute, the approval, pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, effective as of the Effective Date, of the limited consolidation for distribution on account of Primary General Unsecured Claims as provided in Section 5.21 of the Plan.

For the avoidance of doubt, the limited consolidation described in Section 5.21 of the Plan will only apply to distributions on account of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims and will not impact, waive, or otherwise effect any Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims asserted against any Debtor or any recoveries on such Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims, if applicable. Providing distributions to holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims in the manner described in this Section shall not affect: (i) the legal and corporate structures of the Debtors; (ii) pre- and post-Effective Date guarantees, liens and security interests that are required to be maintained (a) in connection with contracts or leases that were entered into during the Chapter 11 Cases or Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been or will be assumed by the Debtors or (b) pursuant to the Plan; (iii) Intercompany Interests; (iv) distributions from any insurance policies or proceeds of such policies; or (v) the revesting of assets in the separate Reorganized Debtors. In addition, such consolidation shall not constitute a waiver of the mutuality requirement for setoff under section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code.

22. Adjustment of Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution and Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the Debtors may modify the allocation between and among the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution and the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution, including between and among the Secondary Recovery Debtors identified on Exhibit C, to the extent necessary to satisfy the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code.

As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the various lists of holders of Claims in each Class, as maintained by the Debtors or their agents, will be deemed closed, and there will be no further changes in the record holders of any Claims after the Distribution Record Date. Neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, nor the Disbursing Agent will have any obligation to recognize any transfer of a Claim occurring after the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. In addition, with respect to payment of any Cure Amounts or disputes over any Cure Amounts, neither the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, nor the Disbursing Agent will have any obligation to recognize or deal with any party other than the non-debtor party to the applicable executory contract or unexpired lease, even if such non-debtor party has sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred its Claim for a Cure Amount.

6. Disbursing Agent

All distributions under the Plan will be made by the Disbursing Agent on and after the Effective Date as provided in the Plan. The Disbursing Agent will not be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties. The Reorganized Debtors will use all commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Disbursing Agent (if other than the Reorganized Debtors) with the amounts of Claims and the identities and addresses of holders of Claims, in each case, as set forth in the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ books and records. The Reorganized Debtors will cooperate in good faith with the applicable Disbursing Agent (if other than the Reorganized Debtors) to comply with the reporting and withholding requirements outlined in Section 6.17 of the Plan.

7. Delivery of Distributions

The Disbursing Agent will issue or cause to be issued, the applicable consideration under the Plan and, subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, will make all distributions to any holder of an Allowed Claim as and when required by the Plan at: (i) the address of such holder on the books and records of the Debtors or their agents; or (ii) at the address in any written notice of address change delivered to the Debtors or the Disbursing Agent, including any addresses included on any transfers of Claim filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3001. In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, no distribution or payment to such holder will be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent has been notified of the then-current address of such holder, at which time or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable such distribution will be made to such holder without interest.

 59

8. Unclaimed Property

One year from the later of (a) the Effective Date and (b) the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date a Claim is first Allowed, all distributions payable on account of Claim that are not deliverable and remain unclaimed will be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and will revert to the Reorganized Debtors or their successors or assigns, and all claims of any other Entity (including the holder of a Claim in the same Class) to such distribution will be discharged and forever barred. The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent will have no obligation to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed Claim other than by reviewing the Debtors’ books and records and filings with the Bankruptcy Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Primary General Unsecured Claims Distributions or Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distributions remain unclaimed for one year after attempted distribution, such undeliverable distributions from the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution will be distributed to the holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims and such undeliverable distribution from the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution will be distributed to holders of Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims, as applicable, in accordance with the distribution methodology described in Section 6.1 of the Plan.

9. Satisfaction of Claims

Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, any distributions and deliveries to be made on account of Allowed Claims under the Plan will be in complete and final satisfaction, settlement, and discharge of and exchange for such Allowed Claims.

10. Manner of Payment Under Plan

Except as specifically provided in the Plan, at the option of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, any Cash payment to be made under the Plan may be made by a check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements or customary practices of the Debtors.

11. Fractional Shares and Notes and De Minimis Cash Distributions

No fractional New Membership Interests will be distributed. When any distribution would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of New Membership Interests that is not a whole number, the New Membership Interests subject to such distribution will be rounded to the next higher or lower whole number as follows: (i) fractions equal to or greater than 1/2 will be rounded to the next higher whole number; and (ii) fractions less than 1/2 will be rounded to the next lower whole number. The total number of New Membership Interests to be distributed on account of Allowed Claims will be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided for in the Plan. No consideration will be provided in lieu of fractional shares that are rounded down. Neither the Reorganized Debtors nor the Disbursing Agent will have any obligation to make a distribution that is less than one (1) New Membership Interest or Fifty Dollars ($50.00) in Cash. Fractional New Membership Interests that are not distributed in accordance with Section 6.11 of the Plan will be returned to, and ownership thereof will vest in, Reorganized CHC. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes and New Unsecured Notes each will be issued in denominations of One Dollar ($1) or any integral multiples thereof and any other amounts will be rounded down.

 60

12. No Distribution in Excess of Amount of Allowed Claim

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, no holder of an Allowed Claim will receive, on account of such Allowed Claim, Plan Distributions in excess of the Allowed amount of such Claim plus any postpetition interest on such Claim, to the extent such interest is permitted by Section 6.3 of the Plan.

13. Allocation of Distributions Between Principal and Interest

Except as otherwise required by law (as reasonably determined by the Debtors), consideration received in respect of an Allowed Claim will be allocable first to the principal amount of the Claim (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent of any excess, to the remainder of the Claim, including any Claim for accrued but unpaid interest.

14. Exemption from Securities Laws

The issuance of and the distribution under the Plan of the New Membership Interests and the New Unsecured Notes will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws to the fullest extent permitted by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. These securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act or other federal securities laws pursuant to the exemption provided by section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act, unless the holder is an “underwriter” with respect to such securities, as that term is defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, such section 1145 exempt securities generally may be resold without registration under state securities laws pursuant to various exemptions provided by the respective laws of the several states.

The Rights Offering and the issuance and sale, as applicable, of the Subscription Rights and the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (and the New Membership Interests issuable upon conversation thereof) pursuant to the Rights Offering and to the Backstop Parties under the Backstop Agreement (including the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (and the New Membership Interests issuable upon the conversion thereof) comprising the Put Option Premium) is being made in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder. Such securities will be considered “restricted securities” and may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or under an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as, under certain conditions, the resale provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

15. Setoffs and Recoupments

Each Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, or such Entity’s designee, may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable nonbankruptcy law, offset or recoup against any Allowed Claim and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim any and all Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or its successors may hold against the holder of such Allowed Claim; provided, that neither the failure to effect a setoff or recoupment nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder will constitute a waiver or release by a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or its successor of any Claims, rights, or Causes of Action that a Reorganized Debtor or it successor or assign may possess against such holder.

16. Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent

The Disbursing Agent will be empowered to: (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under the Plan; (ii) make all applicable distributions or payments provided for under the Plan; (iii) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities; and (iv) exercise such other powers (A) as may be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court (including any order issued after the Effective Date) or pursuant to the Plan or (B) as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions of the Plan.

 61

To the extent the Disbursing Agent is an Entity other than a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court and subject to the written agreement of the Reorganized Debtors, the amount of any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent on or after the Effective Date (including taxes) and any reasonable compensation and expense reimbursement Claims (including for reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees and expenses) made by the Disbursing Agent will be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors.

17. Withholding and Reporting Requirements

In connection with the Plan and all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, the Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent will comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions under the Plan will be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. In the case of a non-Cash distribution that is subject to withholding, the distributing party may withhold an appropriate portion of such distributed property and sell such withheld property to generate Cash necessary to pay over the withholding tax. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the preceding sentence will be deemed to have been distributed to and received by the applicable recipient for all purposes of the Plan.

Notwithstanding the above, each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution under the Plan will have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed on such holder by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution. The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent have the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to any issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations.

The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent may require, as a condition to receipt of a distribution, that the holder of an Allowed Claim provide any information necessary to allow the distributing party to comply with any such withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority. If the Reorganized Debtors or the Disbursing Agent make such a request and the holder fails to comply before the date that is 180 days after the request is made, the amount of such distribution will irrevocably revert to the applicable Reorganized Debtor and any Claim in respect of such distribution will be discharged and forever barred from assertion against such Reorganized Debtor or its respective property.

F. Procedures for Resolving Claims

1. Disputed Claims Generally

Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under the Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will be entitled to object to Claims. Any objections to Claims will be served and filed on or before: (a) 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 may be fixed by the Bankruptcy Court.

 62

2. Objections to Professional Fee Claims

Any objections to Professional Fee Claims will be served and filed (a) no later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the final applications for compensation or reimbursement by the applicable Professional Person or (b) such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

3. Estimation of Claims

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether the Debtors had previously objected to or otherwise disputed such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection. The Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated will constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Reorganized Debtors may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim.

4. Claim Resolution Procedures Cumulative

All of the objection, estimation, and resolution procedures in the Plan are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently settled, compromised, withdrawn, or resolved in accordance with the Plan by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

5. Resolution of Disputed Claims

On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors will have the authority to litigate, compromise, settle, otherwise resolve or withdraw any objections to all Claims against the Debtors and to compromise and settle any such Disputed Claims without notice to or approval by the Bankruptcy Court or any other party; provided, however, that for so long as the Post-Effective Date Committee is in existence, the Post-Effective Date Committee will have (i) consultation rights for the settlement of any General Unsecured Claims filed or asserted in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or more and (ii) reasonable consent rights with respect to any settlement of a General Unsecured Claim that is settled for an Allowed General Unsecured Claim in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). In the event the Post-Effective Date Committee does not consent to any such Claim settlement, the Reorganized Debtors will have the right to seek approval of such Claim settlement by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019. Upon request, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors will also provide the Post-Effective Date Committee with a spreadsheet of all General Unsecured Claims, which will include the filed Claim amounts and any objections asserted thereto.

6. No Distributions Pending Allowance

No payment or distribution provided under the Plan will be made on account of a Disputed Claim unless and until (and only to the extent that) such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

 63

7. Disputed Claims Reserve

There will be withheld from the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims an amount of New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes that would be distributable to Disputed General Unsecured Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). There will also be withheld Cash in an amount that would be distributable to any Disputed Convenience Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). The Disbursing Agent will hold in the Disputed Claims Reserve all dividends, payments, and other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, property held in the Disputed Claims Reserve, to the extent that such property continues to be so held at the time such distributions are made or such obligations arise, and such dividends, payments, or other distributions will be held for the benefit of (i) holders of Disputed General Unsecured Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, (ii) holders of New Unsecured Notes pending resolution of distributions to holders of Allowed Convenience Claims, (iii) holders of Disputed Convenience Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, and (iv) other parties entitled thereto hereunder.

The Debtors intend to seek a determination by the Bankruptcy Court of the estimated amount (either on an individual or aggregate basis) of Disputed General Unsecured Claims and the Disputed Convenience Claims for purposes of determining the amount of the Disputed Claims Reserve attributable to such Disputed Claims. The New Membership Interests held in the Disputed Claims Reserve pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Plan will be deemed voted by the Disbursing Agent proportionally in the same manner as any outstanding New Membership Interests held by parties other than the Disbursing Agent are voted. The Disbursing Agent will be responsible for payment, out of the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve, of any taxes imposed on the Disputed Claims Reserve or its assets. In the event, and to the extent, any Cash in the Disputed Claims Reserve is insufficient to pay the portion of any such taxes attributable to the taxable income arising from the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve (including any income that may arise upon the distribution of the assets in the Disputed Claims Reserve), assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve may be sold to pay such taxes. To the extent that a Disputed General Unsecured Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent will distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. To the extent that a Disputed Convenience Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent will distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of Cash to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. No interest will be paid with respect to any Disputed Convenience Claim or any Disputed General Unsecured Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date.

In the event the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes remaining in the Disputed Claims Reserve are insufficient to satisfy all the Disputed Claims that have become Allowed and are due to be satisfied with distributions from the Disputed Claims Reserve, such Disputed Claims will be satisfied ratably from the Disputed Claims Reserve consistent with the proportional recoveries provided by the Plan and as set forth in Exhibit C. After all New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes have been distributed from the Disputed Claims Reserve, no further distributions will be made in respect of Disputed Claims. At such time as all Disputed Claims have been resolved, any remaining New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes in the Disputed Claims Reserve will be released from the Disputed Claims Reserve for distribution in accordance with Sections 4.7 and 5.8 of the Plan.

 64

8. Distributions After Allowance

To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions (if any) will be made to the holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. As soon as practicable after the date on which the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Disbursing Agent will 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 by the Bankruptcy Code.

G. Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

1. General Treatment

As of and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, all executory contracts and unexpired leases to which the Debtors are party will be deemed rejected except for an executory contract or unexpired lease that (i) has previously been assumed or rejected pursuant to a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (ii) is specifically designated on the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Leases filed and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, (iii) is specifically designated on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases filed and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, (iv) is specifically designated on the Schedule of Assumed Aircraft Leases filed and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, (v) is specifically designated on the Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases filed and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, or (vi) is the subject of a separate (A) assumption motion filed by the Debtors or (B) rejection motion filed by the Debtors under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code before the Confirmation Date. The Debtors reserve the right to modify the treatment of any particular executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to the Plan, and any such modification will be reasonably acceptable to the Debtors, the Requisite Plan Sponsors, and the Creditors’ Committee.

Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the payment of any applicable Cure Amount, and the resolution of any Cure Dispute, the entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court will constitute approval of the rejections, assumptions, and assumptions and assignments provided for in the Plan pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Unless otherwise indicated or provided in a separate order of the Bankruptcy Court, rejections or assumptions or assumptions and assignments of executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to the Plan are effective as of the Effective Date. Each executory contract and unexpired lease assumed pursuant to the Plan or by order of the Bankruptcy Court but not assigned to a third party before the Effective Date will vest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as modified by the provisions of the Plan, any order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing and providing for its assumption, or applicable law.

Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by separate order of the Bankruptcy Court, each executory contract and unexpired lease that is assumed or assumed and assigned will include any and all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such executory contract or unexpired lease, without regard to whether such agreement, instrument, or other document is listed in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Leases or Schedule of Assumed Aircraft Leases.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of the Milestone Term Sheet as approved by the Bankruptcy Court, on the Effective Date, (i) the Milestone Committed Aircraft Lease Agreements will be assumed and will vest in and be fully enforceable against applicable Reorganized Debtor; (ii) any guarantee agreement or other Definitive Restructuring Document (as defined in the Milestone Term Sheet) that is not an executory contract, will be reinstated pursuant to section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code and will vest in and be fully enforceable against the applicable Reorganized Debtor; and (iii) the Milestone Incremental Aircraft Lease Agreements will vest in and be fully enforceable against the applicable Reorganized Debtor.

 65

2. Determination of Cure Disputes and Deemed Consent

The Debtors will file, as part of the Plan Supplement, the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Leases and the Schedule of Assumed Aircraft Leases, which, if and where applicable, will indicate whether the executory contract or lease is also being assigned and to whom, and will simultaneously serve a Cure Notice on parties to executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed or, if applicable, assigned, reflecting the Debtors’ intention to assume or assume and assign the contract or lease in connection with the Plan and, where applicable, setting forth the proposed Cure Amount (if any).

With respect to each executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed or assumed and assigned by the Debtors, unless otherwise determined by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to a Final Order or agreed to by the parties thereto prior to the Effective Date, the dollar amount required to Cure any defaults of the Debtors existing as of the Confirmation Date will be the Cure Amount set in the Cure Notice. The Cure Amount will be satisfied, under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, upon assumption of the relevant executory contract or unexpired lease.

If there is a dispute regarding (i) any Cure Amount, (ii) the ability of the Debtors to provide adequate assurance of future performance (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the contract or lease to be assumed, or (iii) any other matter pertaining to assumption or assumption and assignment, such dispute will be heard by the Bankruptcy Court prior to such assumption or assumption and assignment being effective. Any counterparty to an executory contract or unexpired lease that fails to object timely to the notice of the proposed assumption or assumption and assignment of such executory contract or unexpired lease or the relevant Cure Amount within fifteen (15) days of the Debtors’ notice of intent to assume or assume and assign, will be deemed to have consented to such assumption or assumption and assignment and the Cure Amount (even if Zero Dollars ($0)), and will be forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from challenging the validity of such assumption or assumption and assignment or the amount of such Cure Amount thereafter.

3. Rejection

In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease hereunder results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, any Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a timely filed proof of Claim, will be forever barred and will not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective Estates, properties or interests in property, unless a proof of Claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, no later than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the Confirmation Date or (ii) the effective date of the rejection of such executory contract or unexpired lease, as set forth on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases or on the Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases or order of the Bankruptcy Court. The Confirmation Order will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the rejection of all the leases and contracts identified in the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, and Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases.

 66

4. Survival of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations

Any obligations of the Debtors pursuant to their corporate charters, by-laws, limited liability company agreements, memorandum and articles of association, or other organizational documents and agreements to indemnify current and former officers, directors, agents, or employees with respect to all present and future actions, suits, and proceedings against the Debtors or such officers, directors, agents, or employees based upon any act or omission for or on behalf of the Debtors will not be discharged, impaired, or otherwise affected by the Plan; provided, that the Reorganized Debtors will not indemnify any person for any Claims or Causes of Action arising out of or relating to any act or omission that is a criminal act or constitutes fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct. All such obligations will be deemed and treated as executory contracts to be assumed by the Debtors under the Plan and will continue as obligations of the Reorganized Debtors.

5. Compensation and Benefit Plans

The Debtors will file, as part of the Plan Supplement, the Schedule of Assumed Compensation and Benefit Plans. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, all employment and severance policies, and all compensation and benefits plans, policies, and programs of the Debtors applicable to their respective employees, retirees, and non-employee directors, including all savings plans, retirement plans, healthcare plans, disability plans, severance benefit plans, incentive plans, and life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case to the extent specifically listed on the Schedule of Assumed Compensation and Benefit Plans, are deemed to be, and will be treated as, executory contracts under the Plan and, on the Effective Date, will be assumed pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any such policy, plan, or program not specifically listed on the Schedule of Assumed Compensation and Benefit Plans will be deemed rejected. For the avoidance of doubt, any awards granted under the Management Incentive Plan will be governed by such plan and will not be subject to any provisions of the foregoing assumed plans, programs, or arrangements.

6. Insurance Policies

All insurance policies to which any Debtor is a party as of the Effective Date will be deemed to be and treated as executory contracts, will be assumed by the applicable Debtor, and will vest in the Reorganized Debtors and continue in full force and effect thereafter in accordance with their respective terms.

7. Reservation of Rights

The Debtors may amend the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Leases, the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, the Schedule of Assumed Aircraft Leases, and the Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases and any Cure Notice through 4:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing to (i) add, delete, or reclassify any executory contract or unexpired lease or amend a proposed assignment and /or (ii) amend the proposed Cure; provided, however, that if the Confirmation Hearing is adjourned for a period of more than two (2) consecutive calendar days, the Debtors’ right to amend such schedules and notices will be extended to 4:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the adjourned date of the Confirmation Hearing, with such extension applying in the case of any and all subsequent adjournments of the Confirmation Hearing. For the avoidance of doubt, any such amendments shall be reasonably acceptable in all respects to the Debtors, the Requisite Plan Sponsors, and the Creditors’ Committee.

Neither the exclusion nor the inclusion by the Debtors of any contract or lease on any exhibit, schedule, or other annex to the Plan or in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in the Plan, will constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is or is not an executory contract or unexpired lease or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their respective affiliates have any liability thereunder.

 67

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, or in a previously entered order of the Bankruptcy Court, nothing shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-executory contract or unexpired or expired lease.

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

If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of its assumption under the Plan, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will have sixty (60) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

H. Conditions Precedent to the Occurrence of the Effective Date

1. Conditions Precedent to the Effective Date

The Effective Date will not occur unless all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied or waived in accordance with Section 9.2 of the Plan:

· the Debtors maintain unrestricted cash liquidity (i.e., cash, cash equivalents and unrestricted availability under any financing arrangement for general working capital purposes), without regard to the proceeds from the Rights Offering, in the amount set forth on Schedule 6(a)(xix) of the Plan Support Agreement (after accounting for payments to be made in connection with the Effective Date), or such lesser amount as reasonably determined by the Debtors, the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee;

If any such condition precedent is waived pursuant to Section 902 of the Plan and the Effective Date occurs, each party agreeing to waive such condition precedent will be estopped from withdrawing such waiver after the Effective Date or otherwise challenging the occurrence of the Effective Date on the basis that such condition was not satisfied. If the Plan is confirmed for fewer than all of the Debtors as provided for in Section 5.19 of the Plan, only the conditions applicable to the Debtor or Debtors for which the Plan is confirmed must be satisfied or waived for the Effective Date to occur.

1. Binding Effect

Except as otherwise provided in section 1141(d)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, on and after the entry of the Confirmation Order, the provisions of the Plan will bind every holder of a Claim against or Interest in any Debtor and inure to the benefit of and be binding on such holder’s respective successors and assigns, regardless of whether the Claim or Interest of such holder is impaired under the Plan and whether such holder has accepted the Plan.

 69

2. Vesting of Assets

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, all Assets of the Estates, including all claims, rights, and Causes of Action and any property acquired by the Debtors under or in connection with the Plan, will vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, other encumbrances, and Interests. Subject to the terms of the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may operate their businesses and may use, acquire, and dispose of property and prosecute, compromise, or settle any Claims (including any Administrative Expense Claims) and Causes of Action without supervision of or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free and clear of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules other than restrictions expressly imposed by the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

7. Severability

Subject to Section 5.19 of the Plan, if, prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order, any term or provision of the Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court, at the request of the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, will have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, and such term or provision will then be applicable as altered or interpreted. Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation by the Bankruptcy Court, the remainder of the terms and provisions of the Plan will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation.

VIII.
Projections and valuation analysis

A. Estimated Valuation of the Reorganized Debtors

THE VALUATION INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IS NOT A PREDICTION OR GUARANTEE OF THE ACTUAL MARKET VALUE THAT MAY BE REALIZED THROUGH THE SALE OF ANY SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED OR SOLD PURSUANT TO THE PLAN. THIS VALUATION IS PRESENTED SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING ADEQUATE INFORMATION AS REQUIRED BY SECTION 1125 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE TO ENABLE THE HOLDERS OF CLAIMS ENTITLED TO VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN TO MAKE AN INFORMED JUDGMENT ABOUT THE PLAN AND SHOULD NOT BE USED OR RELIED UPON FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE, INCLUDING THE PURCHASE OR SALE OF CLAIMS AGAINST THE DEBTORS.

Solely for purposes of the Plan and this Disclosure Statement, PJT has estimated the total enterprise value (the “Total Enterprise Value”) and implied equity value (the “Equity Value”) of the Reorganized Debtors on a going concern basis and pro forma for the transactions contemplated by the Plan.

In estimating the Total Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors, PJT (i) met with the Debtors’ senior management team to discuss the Debtors’ operations and future prospects, (ii) reviewed the Debtors’ historical financial information, (iii) reviewed certain of the Debtors’ internal financial and operating data, (iv) reviewed certain financial analyses prepared by CDG and Seabury, (v) reviewed the Financial Projections attached hereto as Exhibit H, (vi) reviewed the detailed business plan underlying the Financial Projections, and (vii) reviewed publicly-available third-party information.

The valuation information set forth in this Section represents a valuation of the Reorganized Debtors based on the application of standard valuation techniques. The estimated values set forth in this Section: (a) do not purport to constitute an appraisal of the assets of the Reorganized Debtors; (b) do not constitute an opinion on the terms and provisions or fairness to any Person, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by such Person under the Plan; (c) do not constitute a recommendation to any holder of Allowed Claims as to how such holder should vote, whether such holder should participate in the Rights Offering, or how such holder otherwise should act with respect to the Plan; and (d) do not necessarily reflect the actual market value that might be realized through a sale or liquidation of the Debtors.

In preparing the estimates set forth below, PJT has relied upon the accuracy, completeness, and fairness of the financial and other information furnished by the Debtors. PJT did not attempt to independently audit or verify such information, nor did it perform an independent appraisal of the Assets or liabilities of the Debtors.

The Financial Projections for the Reorganized Debtors are attached hereto as Exhibit H. The estimated values set forth herein assume that the Reorganized Debtors will achieve their Financial Projections in all material respects. PJT has relied on the Debtors’ representation and warranty that the Financial Projections (a) have been prepared in good faith; (b) are based on fully disclosed assumptions, which, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, are reasonable; (c) reflect the Debtors’ best currently available estimates; and (d) reflect the good faith judgments of the Debtors. PJT does not offer an opinion as to the attainability of the Financial Projections. As discussed in Section X herein, the future results of the Reorganized Debtors are dependent upon various factors, many of which are beyond the control or knowledge of the Debtors and PJT, and consequently are inherently difficult to project.

 79

This valuation contemplates facts and conditions known and existing as of December 5, 2016. Events and conditions subsequent to this date, including updated projections, as well as other factors, could have a substantial effect upon the Total Enterprise Value. Among other things, failure to consummate the Plan in a timely manner may have a materially negative effect on the Total Enterprise Value. For purposes of this valuation, PJT has assumed that no material changes that would affect value will occur between December 5, 2016 and the contemplated Effective Date. For convenience of modeling, we have assumed an emergence and valuation date of January 31, 2017.

Valuation Methodology

PJT prepared its valuation analysis based upon the following methodologies:

1. Comparable Company Analysis

· The comparable company analysis estimates the value of a company based on a relative comparison with publicly traded companies with similar operating and financial characteristics. Under this methodology, the enterprise value for each selected public company is determined by examining the trading prices for the equity securities of such company in the public markets and adding the aggregate amount of outstanding net debt (at the market trading value of debt, if available) and minority interests in unconsolidated subsidiaries. Such enterprise values are commonly expressed as multiples of various measures of financial and operating statistics, most commonly EBITDA and EBITDAR. The total enterprise value of a reorganized debtor is then calculated by applying these multiples to the reorganized debtor’s actual and projected financial and operational metrics.

· With respect to the Reorganized Debtors, the selection of comparable public companies was based on business model, geographic mix, fleet characteristics, and other factors that were deemed relevant.

2. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

· The discounted cash flow analysis is a forward looking enterprise valuation methodology that estimates the value of an asset or business by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows to be generated by that asset or business. The total enterprise value is determined by calculating the present value of unlevered after-tax free cash flows over the course of the projection period plus an estimate for the value of a reorganized debtor beyond the projection period, known as the terminal value. The terminal value is commonly derived pursuant to two methods, the comparable company analysis (as discussed separately above) or using the perpetuity growth method, in which the projected cash flows beyond the projection period are estimated using an assumed growth rate.

· In calculating the terminal value for the Reorganized Debtors, PJT relied upon the comparable company analysis to estimate the terminal value.

PJT, along with the Debtors and their other advisors, engaged with members of the Debtors’ existing capital structure regarding a potential new money investment. These discussions were primarily with (i) the Plan Sponsors and (ii) another stakeholder (whose name PJT is not permitted to disclose due to confidentiality restrictions). These parties entered into long-term confidentiality agreements with the Debtors, participated in several meetings with PJT, the Debtors’ management, and the Debtors’ other advisors, and undertook extensive diligence on the Debtors over a period of several months. Ultimately, the Plan Sponsors, who are sophisticated financial counterparties, submitted a bid with significant new money investment in the Debtors. PJT considered the amount and terms of this bid in its valuation.

 80

PJT did not estimate the value of any tax attributes nor did it estimate the impact of any cancellation of indebtedness income on the Reorganized Debtors’ projections. Any changes to the assumptions on the availability of tax attributes or the impact of cancellation of indebtedness income on the Reorganized Debtors’ projections could materially impact PJT’s valuation analysis.

Total Enterprise Value and Equity Value

As a result of the analysis described above, PJT estimates the Total Enterprise Value of the Reorganized Debtors to be approximately $700 - $900 million. PJT projects pro forma net debt of $226 million upon the Effective Date. This consists of $411 million of gross debt, excluding $464 million of mandatorily convertible debt treated on an as converted basis, and cash of $186 million. The Total Enterprise Value implies an Equity Value range of $474 - $674 million.

B. Consolidated Projected Financial Statements

As more fully described in Section XIV of this Disclosure Statement, the Bankruptcy Code permits a debtor’s chapter 11 plan to be confirmed only if it is not likely to be followed by the debtor’s liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization, other than as provided for in its plan. This requirement of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code is known as the “feasibility” requirement.

For purposes of determining whether the Plan meets this requirement, the Debtors and their advisors have analyzed the Debtors’ ability to meet their obligations under the Plan on a going-forward basis post-Effective Date. As more fully described in the Debtors’ consolidated business projections attached hereto as Exhibit H, the analysis performed by the Debtors with the assistance of CDG shows the Debtors’ Plan is not likely to be followed by a liquidation or need for further financial reorganization.

C. Liquidation Analysis

Section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Codes requires that to confirm a plan, each holder of a claim or interest against the debtor must either (i) accept the plan or (ii) receive or retain under the plan property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, that is not less than the value such holder would receive or retain if the debtor were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. To demonstrate that the Debtors’ Plan meets this requirement, a liquidation analysis was performed by CDG in coordination with the Debtors and the Debtors’ other professionals and is attached hereto as Exhibit G. Based on this analysis, the Debtors submit that each Impaired Class will receive under the Plan a recovery equal to or greater than the value such Class would receive pursuant to a liquidation of the Debtors under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Securities Law Matters

A. New Second Lien Convertible Notes, New Unsecured Notes, and New Membership Interests

Detailed summaries of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, New Unsecured Notes, and New Membership Interests are provided in Sections V.M.2, V.M.3, and V.M.5 of this Disclosure Statement.

 81

B. Transfer Restrictions and Consequences Under Federal Securities Laws

The securities to be issued on or after the Effective Date will not have been the subject of a registration statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act or any securities regulatory authority of any state under any state securities law. The Plan has not been approved or disapproved by the SEC or any state regulatory authority and neither the SEC nor any state regulatory authority has passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of the information contained in this Disclosure Statement or the Plan. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Neither this Disclosure Statement nor the Plan was required to be prepared in accordance with federal or state securities laws or other applicable nonbankruptcy law. Neither this Disclosure Statement nor the solicitation contemplated herein constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized. Making investment decisions based on the information contained in this Disclosure Statement or the Plan is therefore highly speculative.

Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code generally exempts from registration under the Securities Act the offer or sale under a chapter 11 plan of a security of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a successor to the debtor under a plan, if such securities are offered or sold in exchange for a claim against, or equity interest in, such debtor or affiliate. In reliance upon this exemption, the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes issued under the Plan generally will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and state and local securities laws. In addition, the offer and sale, as applicable of the Subscription Rights, New Second Lien Convertible Notes (and the New Membership Interests issuable upon conversion thereof) pursuant to the Rights Offering and to the Backstop Parties under the Backstop Agreement (including the New Second Lien Convertible Notes comprising the Put Option Premium) is being made in reliance on section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

The New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes issued pursuant to the Section 1145 exemption may be resold without registration under the Securities Act or other federal securities laws pursuant to the exemption provided by section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act, unless the holder is an “underwriter” with respect to such securities, as that term is defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, such section 1145 exempt securities generally may be resold without registration under state securities laws pursuant to various exemptions provided by the respective laws of the several states. All New Second Lien Convertible Notes (and the New Membership Interests issuable upon conversion thereof) issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Regulation D will be considered “restricted securities” and may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as, under certain conditions, the resale provisions of Rules 144 and 144A of the Securities Act. In any case, recipients of new securities issued under the Plan and pursuant to the Rights Offering are advised to consult with their own legal advisors as to the securities laws governing the transferability of any such securities and the availability of any such exemption from registration under state law in any given instance and as to any applicable requirements or conditions to such availability.

Section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code defines “underwriter” for purposes of the Securities Act as one who (i) purchases a claim with a view to distribution of any security to be received in exchange for the claim other than in ordinary trading transactions, (ii) offers to sell securities issued under a plan for the holders of such securities, (iii) offers to buy securities issued under a plan from persons receiving such securities, if the offer to buy is made with a view to distribution, or (iv) is an issuer, as used in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, with respect to such issuer of the securities, which includes control persons of the issuer.

 82

“Control,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. The legislative history of Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code suggests that a creditor who owns ten percent (10%) or more of a class of voting securities of a reorganized debtor may be presumed to be a “controlling person” and, therefore, an underwriter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, control person statutory underwriters may be able to sell securities without registration pursuant to the resale limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act which, in effect, permit the resale of securities received by such statutory underwriters pursuant to a chapter 11 plan, subject to applicable volume limitations, notice and manner of sale requirements and certain other conditions. However, Reorganized CHC does not presently intend to make publicly available the requisite current information regarding Reorganized CHC, and as a result Rule 144 may not be available for resale of the securities issued under the Plan by Persons deemed to be underwriters. In view of the complex nature of the question of whether a particular Person may be an “underwriter,” the Debtors make no representations concerning the right of any Person to freely resell securities issued under the Plan. Accordingly, the Debtors recommend that potential recipients of such securities consult their own counsel concerning their ability to freely trade such securities.

C. Listing; SEC Filings

Reorganized CHC intends to withdraw its SEC registration before, on, or following the Effective Date of the Plan and cease filing periodic reports with the SEC and terminate any listings of its securities on any national securities exchanges.

D. Legends

Certificates evidencing the New Second Lien Convertible Notes received by participants in the Rights Offering or pursuant to the Backstop Agreement will bear a legend substantially in the form below:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND ACCORDINGLY THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

X.
Certain Risk Factors to be Considered

Prior to voting to accept or reject the Plan, holders of Claims should read and carefully consider the risk factors set forth below, in addition to the information set forth in this Disclosure Statement. The factors below should not be regarded as the only risks associated with the Plan or its implementation. Documents filed with the SEC may contain important risk factors that differ from those discussed below, and such risk factors are incorporated as if fully set forth herein. Copies of any document filed with the SEC may be obtained by visiting the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov.

 83

A. Certain Bankruptcy Law Considerations

1. Non-Confirmation of the Plan

Although the Debtors believe that the Plan will satisfy all requirements necessary for confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will reach the same conclusion.

The Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan of reorganization comply with certain requirements (including, but not limited to, the requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code) for a plan of reorganization to be confirmed. The Bankruptcy Court may determine that one or more of those requirements is not satisfied with respect to the Debtors’ Plan. If the Bankruptcy Court were to make such a determination, the Debtors could be required to restart the solicitation process. In such a situation, the Debtors could be required to (i) seek approval of a new disclosure statement, (ii) solicit or re-solicit votes from holders of Claims and/or Interests, as applicable, and/or (iii) seek confirmation of the newly-proposed plan of reorganization.

Further, denial of confirmation of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court could give rise to a right of the Consenting Creditor Parties to terminate the Plan Support Agreement. If such a termination were to occur, the Debtors’ efforts to reorganize would be delayed and possibly jeopardized. Additionally, should the Plan fail to be approved, confirmed, or consummated, non-debtor parties-in-interest may file alternative plans of reorganization pursuant to section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Debtors would be responsible for paying the Put Option Premium in Cash.

2. Non-Occurrence of the Effective Date

Although the Debtors believe that the Effective Date will occur soon after the Confirmation Date, there can be no assurance as to the timing of the Effective Date. As discussed below, if the conditions precedent to the Effective Date set forth in the Plan have not occurred or have not been waived as set forth in Article IX of the Plan, then the Confirmation Order may be vacated, in which event no distributions would be made under the Plan, the Debtors and all holders of Claims or Interests would be restored to the status quo as of the day immediately preceding the Confirmation Date, and the Debtors’ obligations with respect to Claims and Interests would remain unchanged. It is a termination event under the Plan Support Agreement if the Effective Date does not occur by March 17, 2017, and such termination would result in the Debtors’ payment of the Put Option Premium in Cash.

3. Conversion into Chapter 7 Cases

If no plan can be confirmed, or if the Bankruptcy Court otherwise finds that it would be in the best interest of creditors and/or the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases may be converted to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, pursuant to which a trustee would be appointed or elected to liquidate the Debtors’ Assets for distribution in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. As further described in Exhibit G hereto, the Debtors believe that liquidation under chapter 7 would result in smaller distributions being made to the Debtors’ creditors than those provided for in the Plan. Further, conversion of the Chapter 11 Cases to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code would entitle the Consenting Creditor Parties to terminate the Plan Support Agreement.

 84

B. Risks in Connection with the Plan Support Agreement

1. Termination of the Plan Support Agreement

The Plan Support Agreement may be terminated upon the occurrence of a number of termination events (each, a “Plan Support Agreement Termination Event”) as more specifically set forth in the Plan Support Agreement. If a Plan Support Agreement Termination Event occurs and the Plan Support Agreement is terminated, all obligations of the parties to the Plan Support Agreement shall terminate (except as specifically provided in the Plan Support Agreement).

Furthermore, upon termination of the Plan Support Agreement, any party to the Plan Support Agreement shall have all the rights and remedies that it would have had and shall be entitled to take all actions that it would have been entitled to take if it not entered into the Plan Support Agreement, and none of its rights or remedies shall be deemed waived pursuant to a claim of laches or estoppel. Without the commitment provided by the Consenting Creditor Parties to vote in favor of the Plan, the Debtors may not be able to secure sufficient votes in favor of the Plan for confirmation.

C. Risks Relating to the Debtors’ Business and Financial Condition

1. Claims Could Be More than Projected

There can be no assurance that the estimated Allowed amount of Claims in certain Classes will not be significantly more than projected, which, in turn, could cause the value of distributions to be reduced substantially. Inevitably, some assumptions will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the ultimate results. Therefore, the actual amount of Allowed Claims may vary from the Debtors’ projections and feasibility analysis, and the variation may be material.

The aggregate amount of Allowed Convenience Claims remains to be determined, but it is anticipated that the amount of Allowed Convenience Claims will exceed the Convenience Claim Distribution Amount. In addition, the number of holders of Allowed Primary General Unsecured Claims that choose to “opt in” to the Convenience Class, in accordance with the Plan, will not be known until after Ballots are received, and such “opt-in” Convenience Claims could significantly reduce distributions to all holders of Allowed Convenience Claims. Therefore, the actual amount of Allowed Convenience Claims may vary from the Debtors’ estimations and analysis, and the variation may be material.

There can be no assurance that Secondary General Unsecured Claims will not be asserted at Debtors CHC Helicopters (Barbados) Limited and Heli-One Leasing (Norway) AS. If any Secondary General Unsecured Claims are asserted and Allowed at either of those entities, the allocation of the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution among the other Debtors on Exhibit C will decrease ratably according to the waterfall described in Section I.8 of this Disclosure Statement. In no event would the recovery on account of an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim fall below the amount that is required to satisfy the requirements for confirmation of the Plan under the Bankruptcy Code and if necessary, the Primary General Unsecured Claims Distribution may also be reduced ratably to ensure compliance.

 85

2. The Financial Projections are Based on Significant Assumptions

The Financial Projections (attached hereto as Exhibit H) were not compiled, audited, or examined by independent accountants, and neither of the Debtors nor their non-debtor affiliates make any representations or warranties regarding the accuracy of the projections or the ability to achieve forecasted results. Many of the assumptions underlying the projections are subject to significant uncertainties and are beyond the control of the Debtors, including sales, costs, inflation, the volatile nature of the helicopter flight services and repair market and other unanticipated market, competitive and economic conditions. Inevitably, some assumptions will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the ultimate financial results. Projections, while presented with numerical specificity, are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the projections may be inaccurate in a material respect. Therefore, the actual results achieved may vary significantly from the forecasts, and the variations may be material. If the Debtors do not achieve their projected financial results, the Debtors may lack sufficient liquidity to continue as planned after the Effective Date. Moreover, the financial condition and results of the Reorganized Debtors from and after the Effective Date may not be comparable to the financial condition or results of operations reflected in the Debtors’ historical financial statements.

3. Debtors’ Business and Industry

The risks associated with the Debtors’ business and industry are more fully described in CHC Parent’s SEC filings, incorporated by reference herein, including:

· The risk factors in the section titled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in CHC Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016, filed with the SEC on July 15, 2016; and

· Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 31, 2016, filed with the SEC on September 14, 2016.

The risks associated with the Debtors’ business and industry described in SEC filings of CHC Parent include, but are not limited to, the following:

· risk of direct financial impact attributable to a significant safety or other hazardous incident;

· risk of significant safety or other hazardous incident could negatively impact ability to attract and retain customers;

· significant decline in the level activity in the offshore oil and gas industry;

· highly competitive and cyclical nature of the helicopter flight services and helicopter repair industries;

· risk associated with small number of helicopter manufacturers;

· limited ability to obtain financing and pursue business opportunities because of debt level;

· need for capital upgrades and refurbishment, and reliance on secondary market for sale of old aircraft and related parts;

· maintenance costs of both operating and idle aircraft;

· credit risk relating to nonperformance by customers;

· risks relating to operating in international locations;

· foreign currency risk;

 86

· risks associated with the high levels of regulation in the helicopter flight services industry and the helicopter MRO industry; and

· political, regulatory, commercial and economic uncertainty associated with operating a global business.

4. Post-Effective Date Indebtedness

Following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors will have outstanding indebtedness of approximately $[●], which includes amounts under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, the PK Financing Facility (if applicable), the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, and the New Unsecured Notes, of which approximately $[●] is expected to be secured. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes will convert at maturity and not bear or pay interest other than in connection with an event of default. Upon the conversion of all of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes into New Membership Interests, the Reorganized Debtors will have approximately $[●] in total outstanding indebtedness, of which approximately $[●] is expected to be secured. The Reorganized Debtors’ ability to service their debt obligations will depend on, among other things, their future operating performance, which depends partly on economic, financial, competitive, and other factors beyond the Reorganized Debtors’ control. The Reorganized Debtors may not be able to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet their debt service obligations as well as fund necessary capital expenditures and investments in sales and marketing. In addition, if the Reorganized Debtors need to refinance their debt, obtain additional financing, or sell assets or equity, they may not be able to do so on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

5. Foreign Customers and Creditors

The Debtors’ customers may not be subject to the jurisdiction of U.S. courts and may attempt to terminate their contracts with the Debtors or take actions against the Debtors’ Assets in contravention of U.S. bankruptcy law or orders of the Bankruptcy Court. Any such termination or renegotiation of contracts, unfavorable costs increases, or loss of revenue could have a material adverse impact on the Debtors’ financial condition and results of operations.

D. Risks Relating to the Securities to Be Issued Under the Plan

1. No Current Public Market for Securities

There is currently no market for the New Membership Interests, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, or the New Unsecured Notes, and there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for any such securities.

The Reorganized Debtors are under no obligation to list any of the above securities on any national securities exchange. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any of the foregoing securities will be tradable or liquid at any time after the Effective Date. If a trading market does not develop or is not maintained, holders of the foregoing securities may experience difficulty in reselling such securities or may be unable to sell them at all. Even if such a market were to exist, such securities could trade at prices higher or lower than the estimated value set forth in this Disclosure Statement depending upon many factors including, without limitation, prevailing interest rates, markets for similar securities, industry conditions, and the performance of, and investor expectations for, the Reorganized Debtors. Accordingly, holders of these securities may bear certain risks associated with holding securities for an indefinite period of time.

 87

2. Limitation of Rights in the Event of a Public Offering

Although Reorganized CHC will enter into a registration rights agreement with the holders of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, providing such parties with certain rights, after an initial public offering of the New Membership Interests of Reorganized CHC (or equity securities of a successor entity), that will facilitate the registration of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes held by them, along with the underlying New Membership Interests, under the Securities Act to allow for the resale of such securities, such rights will be limited.

3. Insufficient Cash Flow to Meet Debt Obligations

On the Effective Date, on a consolidated basis, it is expected that the Reorganized Debtors will have total outstanding indebtedness of approximately $[●], which includes amounts under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, the PK Financing Facility (if applicable), the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, and the New Unsecured Notes, of which approximately $[●] is expected to be secured. Upon conversion of all of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes into New Membership Interests, the Reorganized Debtors will have approximately $[●] of total outstanding indebtedness, of which approximately $[●] is expected to be secured. If the Debtors’ actual financial performance does not meet their cash flow projections and if other sources of liquidity are not available, there is a risk that the Debtors might be unable to pay interest and principal payments on such debt, and may default on those obligations.

The Reorganized Debtors’ earnings and cash flow may vary significantly from year to year due to the cyclical nature of the helicopter and offshore drilling industries. Additionally, the Reorganized Debtors’ future cash flow may be insufficient to meet their debt obligations and commitments. Any insufficiency could negatively impact the Reorganized Debtors’ business. A range of economic, competitive, business, and industry factors will affect the Reorganized Debtors’ future financial performance and, as a result, their ability to generate cash flow from operations and to pay their debt. Many of these factors, such as oil and natural gas prices, economic and financial conditions in the offshore drilling industry and the oil and gas industry, as well as the global economy or competitive initiatives of competitors, are beyond the Reorganized Debtors’ control.

If the Reorganized Debtors do not generate enough cash flow from operations to satisfy their debt obligations, they may have to undertake alternative financing plans, such as:

· refinancing or restructuring debt;

· selling assets;

· reducing or delaying capital investments; or

· seeking to raise additional capital.

It cannot be assured, however, that undertaking alternative financing plans, if necessary, would allow the Reorganized Debtors to meet their debt obligations. An inability to generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy their debt obligations, or to obtain alternative financing, could materially and adversely affect the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to make payments on their debt obligations and their business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

 88

4. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes May Be Issued for a Purchase Price of Less than $300 Million

So long as the Backstop Parties have provided their Backstop Commitments at an aggregate purchase price of at least $250 million for the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (representing an aggregate principal amount of approximately $361.1 million of New Second Lien Convertible Notes to be issued), taking into account the fulfillment of the obligation to satisfy Unfulfilled Backstop Commitments and any other replacement due to any Backstop Party default, the Debtors may elect to still consummate the transactions contemplated by the Backstop Agreement and the Plan and issue New Second Lien Convertible Notes for an aggregate purchase price of less than $300 million. Consequently, the Debtors would have access to less liquidity.

5. The outstanding indebtedness may adversely affect Reorganized CHC’s financial health and operating flexibility

The terms of the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility], PK Financing Facility (if applicable), and the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility may require the Reorganized Debtors to take, or refrain from taking, certain actions to satisfy certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and to meet certain financial ratios and tests, including ratios and tests based on leverage and fixed charge coverage. For example, these covenants and other restrictions may limit the ability of the Reorganized Debtors to, among other things, incur indebtedness, create Liens on assets, sell assets, manage cash flows, transfer assets to other subsidiaries, engage in mergers and acquisitions, enter into transactions with affiliates and make distributions to equity holders. These covenants and other restrictions may adversely affect the financial health and operating flexibility of the Reorganized Debtors by, among other things: (a) limiting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to borrow additional amounts for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, execution of business strategies, development, or other purposes; (b) limiting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to use operating cash flows in other areas of the business or to pay dividends; (c) increasing the vulnerability of the Reorganized Debtors to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including increases in interest rates; (d) limiting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to capitalize on business opportunities, reinvest in or develop the Reorganized Debtors’ assets, and react to competitive pressures and adverse changes in government regulations; (e) limiting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability, or increasing the costs, to restructure funded indebtedness; (f) limiting the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to enter into marketing transactions by reducing the number of potential counterparties to such transactions as well as the volume of those transactions; and (g) giving secured lenders the ability to foreclose on assets.

6. Inability to Repurchase the New Unsecured Notes

Under the terms of the indenture governing the New Unsecured Notes (the “New Unsecured Notes Indenture”) and the terms of the indenture governing the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (the “New Second Lien Convertible Notes Indenture” and, together with the New Unsecured Notes Indenture, the “New Indentures”), Reorganized CHC may, at the holder’s option, be required to repurchase all or a portion of the New Unsecured Notes in the event of a change of control, as defined in the New Indentures.

In addition, under the terms of the New Indentures, upon the acceleration of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and New Unsecured Notes (together, the “New Notes”), following the occurrence of any event of default provided therein, the principal amounts thereof, plus accrued but unpaid interest at the default rates set forth therein, as applicable, will become immediately due and payable in Cash to the holders thereof.

 89

Reorganized CHC and the other Reorganized Debtors may not have sufficient funds to make the required payments described above.

7. Reorganized CHC Will be a Holding Company

Upon the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC will be a holding company, and as such, will conduct its operations through, most of its assets will be owned by, and its operating income and cash flow will be generated by, its subsidiaries. Therefore, Reorganized CHC will be dependent upon cash flows from its subsidiaries to meet its debt service and related obligations, including the obligation to repurchase all or a portion of the New Unsecured Notes in the event of a change of control, as defined in the New Unsecured Notes Indenture, or to pay the amounts due and payable in upon acceleration of the New Notes following the occurrence of an event of default thereunder. Contractual provisions or laws, as well as its subsidiaries’ financial conditions and operating requirements, may limit Reorganized CHC’s ability to obtain, from such subsidiaries, the cash required to meet such debt service or related obligations. Applicable tax laws may also subject such payments to further taxation. The inability to obtain cash from its subsidiaries may limit Reorganized CHC’s ability to meet its debt service and related obligations even though there may be sufficient resources on a consolidated basis to satisfy such obligations.

8. The New Notes Will be Structurally Subordinated to all Indebtedness of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries

The New Notes will be guaranteed by each of Reorganized CHC’s direct and indirect subsidiaries existing on the Effective Date that guarantee the indebtedness under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility Documents or any other document necessary to effectuate the treatment of the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims]. Except for such subsidiary guarantors of the New Notes, Reorganized CHC’s subsidiaries will have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay amounts due under the New Notes or to make any funds available to pay those amounts, whether by dividend, distribution, loan or other payment. Therefore, the New Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other obligations of any non-guarantor subsidiary such that, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up of any subsidiary that is not a guarantor, all of such subsidiary’s creditors (including trade creditors and preferred stockholders, if any) would be entitled to payment in full out of such subsidiary’s assets before holders of the New Notes would be entitled to any payment out of such subsidiary’s assets.

9. Restrictions on Ability to Resell New Second Lien Convertible Notes

The offer and sale of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (and the guarantees thereof) and the New Membership Interests to be received upon conversion thereof have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Absent such registration, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes may be offered or sold only in transactions that are not subject to, or that are exempt from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. These restrictions will significantly limit holders’ ability to resell the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

10. Insufficiency of Proceeds from Collateral Securing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility], New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, or the PK Financing Facility

The obligations under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility] will be secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, on a first-priority basis by security interests in substantially all assets of the Reorganized Debtors. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes will be secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, on a second-priority basis, by security interests in substantially all of the Reorganized Debtors’ assets. The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) will each be secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted Liens, on a first-priority basis by security interests in certain specific aircraft and related assets.

 90

In the event of a foreclosure on collateral (or a distribution in respect thereof in a subsequent bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding), the proceeds from a sale of collateral securing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility] or the New Second Lien Convertible Notes may not be sufficient to satisfy the obligations outstanding under [the Exit Revolving Credit Facility or] such New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

In the event of a foreclosure on collateral (or a distribution in respect thereof in a subsequent bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding), the proceeds from a sale of collateral securing the New Second Lien Convertible Notes may not be sufficient to satisfy the obligations outstanding under such New Second Lien Convertible Notes because the proceeds would, under the [New Intercreditor Agreement], first be applied to satisfy the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility]. Only after all of the obligations under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility] have been satisfied will proceeds from the collateral on which the New Second Lien Convertible Notes have a second-priority lien be applied to satisfy the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

The collateral securing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) may be subject to exceptions, defects, encumbrances, liens, and other imperfections. Further, the Debtors have not conducted appraisals of all of their assets constituting collateral securing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) to determine if the value of the collateral upon foreclosure or liquidation equals or exceeds the amount of the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility or such other obligation secured by the collateral. Accordingly, it cannot be assured that the remaining proceeds from a sale of the collateral would be sufficient to repay holders of the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) all amounts owed under such debt facilities. The fair market value of the collateral is subject to fluctuations based on factors that include, among others, the condition of the offshore drilling industry, the ability to sell collateral in an orderly manner, general economic conditions, the availability of buyers, the Reorganized Debtors’ failure to implement their business strategy, and similar factors. The amount received upon a sale of collateral would be dependent on numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the actual fair market value of the collateral at such time, and the timing and manner of the sale. By its nature, portions of the collateral may be illiquid and may have no readily ascertainable market value. In the event of a subsequent foreclosure, liquidation, bankruptcy, or similar proceeding, it cannot be assured that the proceeds from any sale or liquidation of the collateral will be sufficient to pay the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable), in full or at all. Further, proceeds of the collateral may only be applied to the New Second Lien Convertible Notes after first satisfying the obligations under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility] in full. There can also be no assurance that the collateral will be saleable, and, even if saleable, the timing of its liquidation would be uncertain. Accordingly, there may not be sufficient collateral to pay all or any of the amounts due on the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable).

 91

11. Failure to Perfect Security Interests in the Collateral

The failure to properly perfect Liens on the collateral could adversely affect the collateral agent’s ability to enforce its rights with respect to the collateral for the benefit of the holders of the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the PK Financing Facility, and the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility. In addition, applicable law requires that certain property and rights acquired after the grant of a general security interest or Lien can only be perfected at the time such property and rights are acquired and identified. There can be no assurance that the trustee or the collateral agent will monitor, or that Reorganized CHC will inform the trustee or the collateral agent of, the future acquisition of property and rights that constitute collateral, and that the necessary action will be taken to properly perfect the security interest in such after-acquired collateral. The applicable trustee and collateral agent have no obligation to monitor the acquisition of additional property or rights that constitute collateral or the perfection of any security interests therein. Such failure may result in the loss of the practical benefits of the Liens thereon or of the priority of the Liens securing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, and the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility against third parties.

12. Limitations on Rights of Holders of New Second Lien Convertible Notes with Respect to the Collateral

The rights of the holders of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes with respect to the collateral securing such New Second Lien Convertible Notes are expected to be substantially limited by the terms of the Lien ranking agreements set forth in the New Second Lien Convertible Notes Indenture and the [New Intercreditor Agreement], even during an event of default. It is expected that, under the New Convertible Secured Indenture and the [New Intercreditor Agreement], at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the higher priority Liens are outstanding, any actions that may be taken with respect to (or in respect of) such collateral, including the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against such collateral and to control the conduct of such proceedings, and the approval of amendments to, releases of such collateral from the Lien of, and waivers of past defaults under, such documents relating to such collateral, will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the first-priority Liens, and the holders of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes Indenture secured by second-priority Liens may be adversely affected. It is expected that, under the terms of the [New Intercreditor Agreement], at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the first-priority Liens on the collateral are outstanding, if the holders of such indebtedness release the collateral for any reason whatsoever (other than any such release granted following the discharge of obligations with respect to the Exit Revolving Credit Facility), the second-priority security interests in such collateral securing the New Second Lien Convertible Notes will be automatically and simultaneously released without any consent or action by the holders of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, subject to certain exceptions. The collateral so released will no longer secure the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations under the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the related guarantees.

13. Casualty Risk of Collateral

Reorganized CHC will be obligated under the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and, if applicable, the PK Financing Facility collateral agreements governing the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility, if applicable, to maintain adequate insurance or otherwise insure against hazards as is customarily done by companies having assets of a similar nature in the same or similar localities. There are, however, certain losses that may either be uninsurable or not economically insurable, in whole or in part. As a result, it is possible that the insurance proceeds will not compensate Reorganized CHC and the other Reorganized Debtors fully for their losses. If there is a total or partial loss of any of the pledged collateral, the insurance proceeds received may be insufficient to satisfy the secured obligations of Reorganized CHC and the other Reorganized Debtors, including the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable).

 92

14. Risk of Recharacterization of New Second Lien Convertible Notes

Recharacterization of a debt obligation to a capital contribution is an equitable remedy a bankruptcy court may direct if it determines, upon an objection raised by a party in interest, a purported debt obligation is more properly characterized as a capital contribution. In making such a determination, bankruptcy courts consider, among other things, whether the parties intended to create a debt obligation and the nature of the instrument evidencing the obligation. Although the Debtors believe, and intend, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes to be a bona fide debt obligation that is not subject to recharacterization, there can be no assurance a bankruptcy court would agree with the Debtors’ interpretation.

15. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the New Unsecured Notes May Not Be Rated or May Receive a Lower Rating than Anticipated

It is not expected that Reorganized CHC will seek a rating on the New Second Lien Convertible Notes or the New Unsecured Notes. If, however, one or more rating agencies rates the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and/or the New Unsecured Notes and assigns them a rating lower than the rating expected by investors, or reduces its rating in the future, the market price of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the New Unsecured Notes, and/or the New Membership Interests could be reduced.

16. Any Future Pledge of Collateral Might Be Avoidable in a Subsequent Bankruptcy by the Reorganized Debtors

Any future pledge of collateral by the Reorganized Debtors in favor of their secured creditors, including pursuant to security documents delivered after the date of the definitive documents governing the Reorganized Debtors’ secured indebtedness, might be avoidable by the pledgor (as a subsequent debtor in possession) or by its trustee in bankruptcy if certain events or circumstances exist or occur, including, among others, if the pledgor is insolvent at the time of the pledge, the pledge permits the holders of the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) to receive a greater recovery than if the pledge had not been given, and a bankruptcy proceeding in respect of the pledgor is commenced within 90 days following the pledge, or, in certain circumstances, a longer period.

17. Foreclosing on the Collateral May Be Difficult

The Reorganized Debtors’ aircraft operate worldwide and the respective laws of each jurisdiction where an aircraft is actually registered and/or located at the time the collateral agent may seek to enforce the aircraft mortgage or relevant security interest, as applicable will govern the foreclosure proceedings and distribution of proceeds. Such laws may vary significantly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Furthermore, all or some of those laws and procedures may be less favorable to mortgagees or holders of a security interest, as applicable, than those in other jurisdictions and may be less favorable than those applicable in the United States. The costs of enforcement in foreign jurisdictions, particularly if proceedings are ongoing simultaneously against any aircraft in different jurisdictions, can be high and can include fees based on the face amount of the mortgage or security interest, as applicable, being enforced. Foreign court proceedings can also be slow and have unexpected procedural hurdles. Priorities accorded Lien Claims and aircraft mortgages can vary in foreign jurisdictions, and some jurisdictions prefer certain local claimants (such as local suppliers of operating necessaries) to foreign claimants, such as the collateral agent or mortgagee or security interest holder. Additionally, whether or not a particular jurisdiction is a party or signatory to the Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment may also affect the collateral agent’s ability to enforce mortgage or security interests, as applicable. Consequently there are no assurances that the collateral agent will be able to enforce any one or more of the aircraft mortgages or security interests, as applicable, covering aircraft that are located in certain jurisdictions outside the United States.

 93

18. New Second Lien Convertible Notes Reportable as Equity for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes, Absent Contrary Guidance From the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a Contrary Court Determination

Pursuant to the Plan, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes are required to be treated by all parties as equity for U.S federal income tax purposes (that is not preferred stock for purposes of section 305 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”)), subject to definitive guidance from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary, and unless prohibited by applicable law. Accordingly, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes will generally be subject to the same treatment as the New Membership Interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Reorganized CHC will elect to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, thus, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and Membership Interests will be treated as “equity” interests in Reorganized CHC that would be classified as “stock” of Reorganized CHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In this regard, see Section X.E.6 — “Risks Relating to the New Membership Interests to be Issued Under the Plan” — “Potential Treatment as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or a Controlled Foreign Corporation for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes,” below. However, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not successfully assert a contrary position with respect to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes. In the event the New Second Lien Convertible Notes were held to be either (i) debt, rather than equity, for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) preferred stock for purposes of section 305 of the Tax Code, the resulting U.S. federal income tax consequences could be materially adverse to a holder, including the required annual inclusion in income of any original issue discount (“OID”). For a discussion of the tax treatment of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as “equity,” see Section XI.A.2(e) — “Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as ‘Equity,’” below.

E. Risks Relating to the New Membership Interests to Be Issued Under the Plan

1. Significant Holders

The holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, and Allowed General Unsecured Claims are expected to acquire a significant ownership interest in the New Membership Interests pursuant to the Plan. In particular, it is expected that (i) 79.5% of the New Membership Interests will be distributed Pro Rata to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, (ii) 8.9% of the New Membership Interests will be distributed Pro Rata to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, and (iii) 11.6% of the New Membership Interests will be distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims. These percentages are calculated prior to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the Management Incentive Plan. Giving effect to dilution on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (as if the New Second Lien Convertible Notes converted on the Effective Date, but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, and Allowed General Unsecured Claims would be estimated to hold approximately 11.6%, 1.3%, and 1.7%, respectively, of the New Membership Interests. In addition, holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims who participate in the Rights Offering up to their maximum Pro Rata share, will acquire approximately 74.41% and 5.32%, respectively, of the New Membership Interests upon conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, subject to dilution for the Management Incentive Plan. Holders of the New Membership Interests will automatically be bound by the terms of the Reorganized CHC Operating Agreement without any requirement to become a signatory thereto.

 94

If the participants in the Rights Offering, or any subset thereof, were to act as a group, such holders would be in a position to control the outcome of all actions requiring member approval, including the election of managers, without the approval of other members. Furthermore, holders of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes will be entitled immediately (i.e., prior to conversion) to certain rights with respect to the New Membership Interests (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to participate in any dividends or other distributions on the New Membership Interests). For example, in the event an amendment requiring member approval is proposed to the Reorganized CHC Operating Agreement, such holders of New Second Lien Convertible Notes will be entitled to vote on the amendment, although they do not yet actually hold the underlying New Membership Interests. This concentration of ownership could also facilitate or hinder a negotiated change of control of Reorganized CHC and, consequently, have an impact upon the value of the New Membership Interests. In addition, as described in Section VII.A.3, the Requisite Plan Sponsors will be entitled to select three (3) managers after consultation with the Chief Executive Officer and one (1) independent manager after consultation with the Creditors’ Committee and the Individual Creditor Parties. It is further expected that the Reorganized CHC Operating Agreement could limit transfers of New Membership Interests by the holders thereof and could include other provisions related to the New Membership Interests, such as customary “drag along rights.”

2. Potential Dilution

The ownership percentage represented by the New Membership Interests distributed on the Effective Date under the Plan will be subject to dilution from the New Membership Interests issued upon conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and issued in connection with the Management Incentive Plan and the conversion of any other options, warrants, convertible securities, exercisable securities, or other securities that may be issued post-emergence.

In the future, similar to all companies, additional equity financings or other share issuances by Reorganized CHC could adversely affect the value of the New Membership Interests issuable upon such conversion. The amount and dilutive effect of any of the foregoing could be material.

3. Equity Interests Subordinated to Reorganized CHC’s Indebtedness

In any subsequent liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Reorganized CHC, the New Membership Interests would rank below all debt Claims against Reorganized CHC, including the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (prior to mandatory conversion) and the New Unsecured Notes. As a result, holders of the New Membership Interests will not be entitled to receive any payment or other distribution of assets upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Reorganized CHC until after all Reorganized CHC’s obligations to its debt holders have been satisfied, including the [Exit Revolving Credit Facility,] the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, and the PK Financing Facility (if applicable) and consequently, there can be no assurance that there will be sufficient assets to warrant any distribution to holders of New Membership Interests.

 95

4. Implied Valuation of New Membership Interests Not Intended to Represent the Trading Value of the New Membership Interests

The valuation of Reorganized CHC is not intended to represent the trading value of New Membership Interests in public or private markets and is subject to additional uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict. If a market were to develop, actual market prices of such securities at issuance will depend upon, among other things: (i) prevailing interest rates; (ii) conditions in the financial markets; (iii) the anticipated initial securities holdings of prepetition creditors, some of whom may prefer to liquidate their investment rather than hold it on a long-term basis; and (iv) other factors that generally influence the prices of securities. The actual market price of the New Membership Interests is likely to be volatile. Many factors, including factors unrelated to Reorganized CHC’s actual operating performance and other factors not possible to predict, could cause the market price of the New Membership Interests to rise and fall. Accordingly, the implied value, stated herein and in the Plan, of the securities to be issued does not necessarily reflect, and should not be construed as reflecting, values that will be attained for the New Membership Interests in the public or private markets.

5. No Intention to Pay Dividends

Reorganized CHC does not anticipate paying any dividends on the New Membership Interests as it expects to retain any future cash flows for debt reduction and to support its operations. As a result, the success of an investment in the New Membership Interests will depend entirely upon any future appreciation in the value of the New Membership Interests. There is, however, no guarantee that the New Membership Interests will appreciate in value or even maintain their initial value. [Moreover, pursuant to the Exit Revolving Credit Facility, Reorganized CHC may actually be restricted from paying Cash dividends.]

6. Potential Treatment as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or a Controlled Foreign Corporation for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes

Reorganized CHC will elect to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Holders of New Membership Interests and New Second Lien Convertible Notes (which will be treated as “equity” of Reorganized CHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, absent definitive guidance from the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary, see Section XI.A.2(e) — “Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as ‘Equity” below) could be adversely affected if Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries is treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) or a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is uncertain whether, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC. The Debtors do not expect that, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a CFC. Even if neither Reorganized CHC nor any of its subsidiaries is treated as a PFIC or CFC as of the Effective Date, there can be no assurance that Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will not later become a PFIC or CFC in the future. For a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of Reorganized CHC being treated as a PFIC or CFC, see Section XI.A.2(f)(ii) — “Possible Treatment of Reorganized CHC as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Controlled Foreign Corporation,” below.

 96

F. Risks Relating to the Rights Offering

1. Debtors Could Modify the Rights Offering Procedures

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Disclosure Statement or in the Plan to the contrary, the Debtors reserve the right, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court (if applicable), and the reasonable consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, to modify the procedures governing the Rights Offering or adopt additional detailed procedures if necessary in the Debtors’ business judgment to administer the distribution and exercise of the Subscription Rights more efficiently or to comply with applicable law. Such modifications may adversely affect the rights of those participating in the Rights Offering.

2. Conditions Precedent to the Rights Offering Could Fail to be Satisfied

The obligation of the Backstop Parties to purchase their share of New Second Lien Convertible Notes pursuant to the Rights Offering and to fulfill the Backstop Commitment is subject to, among other things, the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent in the Backstop Agreement, including approval by the Bankruptcy Court of the Plan Support Agreement. If these conditions are not satisfied, the Rights Offering will not occur and the parties to the Backstop Agreement would have the right to terminate the Backstop Agreement, which would result in CHC Parent’s or Reorganized CHC’s, as applicable, payment of the Put Option Premium in Cash.

G. Risks Related to the Fleet

1. Delivery of Helicopters

The Debtors’ fleet plan is intended to enhance the Debtors’ ability to operate optimum numbers of specific types of helicopters. In some cases, the helicopters the Debtors intend to operate are not yet in their fleet, but the Debtors have contractual commitments to purchase or lease such helicopters. If for any reason the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors are unable to take delivery of particular types of new helicopters on contractually scheduled delivery dates, the Debtors and/or Reorganized Debtors may be adversely affected.

2. Dependence on Technology

The Debtors depend on, and the Reorganized Debtors will likely continue to depend on, computer systems and other communications technology to operate their helicopters. Such systems could be disrupted by various events beyond the control of the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors, including natural disasters, power failures, equipment failures, system implementation failures, software failures, terrorist attacks and computer viruses and hackers. There can be no assurance that the measures taken to prevent, limit, or remedy disruptions of these systems will be adequate.

3. Highly Competitive Industry

Many of the markets in which the Debtors operate are highly competitive, and if they are unable to effectively compete, it could result in a loss of market share or a decrease in revenue or profit margins. Contracting for helicopter services is usually done through a competitive bidding process among those having the necessary equipment and resources. Factors that affect competition in this industry include price, reliability, safety, professional reputation, helicopter availability, equipment and quality of service. The Debtors compete against a number of helicopter operators including another major global commercial helicopter operator, as well as other local and regional operators. There can be no assurance that the Debtors’ competitors will not be successful in capturing a share of the Debtors’ present or potential customer base. In addition, many oil and gas companies and government agencies to which the Debtors provide services have the financial ability to perform their own helicopter flying operations in-house should they elect to do so.

 97

The main MRO competitors to the Debtors’ Heli-One business are the OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) of helicopters and helicopter components. As such, the Debtors’ main competitors in this industry are also their main parts suppliers and MRO license providers. A conflict with the OEMs could result in the Debtors’ inability to obtain parts and licenses in a timely manner in required quantities and at competitive prices. In addition, the OEMs hold a greater inventory of helicopter components, have more extensive operational experience, and significantly greater capital resources. Increased competition from OEMs could therefore have a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Given that the Debtors’ expect to significantly reduce the size of their fleet, the reduction may make it more difficult for the Debtors to compete effectively against their competitors, as well as aircraft lessors who may place aircraft directly with customers.

4. Extensive Regulation

The Debtors are subject to extensive regulations in each of the countries that they operate in, which carries significant costs. For example, the European Aviation Safety Agency from time to time, among other things, issues directives relating to helicopter maintenance and operation. Compliance with regulations at times requires significant expenditures and may disrupt the Debtors’ operations. Any changes to the regulatory landscape in markets where the Debtors operate, or where the Reorganized Debtors will operate, may adversely impact the value of their business and Assets.

5. Undue Delay in Confirmation may Disrupt Operations of the Debtors

The continuation of the Chapter 11 Cases, particularly if the Plan is not approved or confirmed in the time frame currently contemplated, could adversely affect operations and relationships with the Debtors’ customers, vendors, employees, regulators, and helicopter lessors. If Confirmation and consummation of the Plan do not occur expeditiously, the Chapter 11 Cases could result in, among other things, increased costs for professional fees and similar expenses. In addition, prolonged Chapter 11 Cases could require senior management to spend time and effort that could otherwise be spent on the Debtors’ operations managing the Restructuring.

6. The Ability of the Debtors to Complete Their Ongoing Fleet Restructuring Successfully May Impact the Debtors’ Financial Results

The Debtors are engaged in a comprehensive effort to reduce their helicopter fleet costs. The Debtors’ business plan is based on certain assumptions concerning the results of this effort, including assumptions with respect to the number and types of helicopters in the Debtors’ fleet and the timing and amount of the cost savings achieved. While the Debtors have negotiated significant reductions in costs with respect to many helicopters, in most cases these agreements are subject to the negotiation of additional terms and conditions and the preparation of definitive documentation. In certain cases, the Debtors have only entered into written agreements with lessors concerning the continued use of those lessors’ aircraft during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, leaving the terms of any new leasing relationships subject to negotiation and the preparation of definitive documentation. There can be no assurance that these negotiations, or the preparation of definitive documentation, will in all cases be concluded by the Effective Date. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors could thus be adversely affected to the extent they are unable to reach agreements for certain aircraft or agreements that achieve the savings assumed in the Financial Projections.

 98

H. Additional Risks

1. Debtors Could Withdraw Plan

Subject to the terms of, and without prejudice to, the rights of any party to the Plan Support Agreement, the Plan may be revoked or withdrawn prior to the Confirmation Date by the Debtors.

2. Debtors Have No Duty to Update

The statements contained in this Disclosure Statement are made by the Debtors as of the date hereof, unless otherwise specified herein, and the delivery of this Disclosure Statement after that date does not imply that there has been no change in the information set forth herein since that date. The Debtors have no duty to update this Disclosure Statement unless otherwise ordered to do so by the Bankruptcy Court.

3. No Representations Outside this Disclosure Statement Are Authorized

No representations concerning or related to the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, or the Plan are authorized by the Bankruptcy Court or the Bankruptcy Code, other than as set forth in this Disclosure Statement. Any representations or inducements made to secure acceptance or rejection of the Plan that are other than those contained in, or included with, this Disclosure Statement should not be relied upon in making the decision to accept or reject the Plan.

4. No Legal or Tax Advice Is Provided by this Disclosure Statement

The contents of this Disclosure Statement should not be construed as legal, business, or tax advice. Each holder of a Claim or Interest should consult their own legal counsel and accountant as to legal, tax, and other matters concerning their Claim or Interest.

This Disclosure Statement is not legal advice. This Disclosure Statement may not be relied upon for any purpose other than to determine how to vote on the Plan or object to confirmation of the Plan.

5. No Admission Made

Nothing contained herein or in the Plan will constitute an admission of, or will be deemed evidence of, the tax or other legal effects of the Plan on the Debtors or holders of Claims or Interests.

6. Certain Tax Consequences

For a discussion of certain tax considerations to the Debtors and certain holders of Claims in connection with the implementation of the Plan, see Section XI below.

XI.
Certain Tax Consequences of the Plan

A. Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Plan

The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the implementation of the Plan to the Debtors and to holders of certain Claims. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of Claims who are unimpaired or deemed to reject the Plan. Additionally, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of Revolving Credit Agreement Claims and ABL Credit Agreement Claims or to holders of Claims who are also Backstop Parties, as it is the Debtors’ understanding that such persons have engaged counsel to advise them as to the consequences of the Plan to them.

 99

The discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences below is based on the Tax Code, Treasury regulations, judicial authorities, published positions of the IRS, and other applicable authorities, all as in effect on the date of this Disclosure Statement and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations (possibly with retroactive effect). The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the contemplated transactions are complex and subject to significant uncertainties. The Debtors have not requested an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the IRS with respect to any of the tax aspects of the contemplated transactions.

This summary does not address foreign, state, or local tax consequences of the contemplated transactions, nor does it purport to address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the transactions to special classes of taxpayers (e.g., foreign taxpayers, small business investment companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, banks and certain other financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, retirement plans, individual retirement and other tax-deferred accounts, holders that are, or hold their Claims through, S corporations, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, dealers in securities or foreign currency, traders that mark-to-market their securities, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax or the “Medicare” tax on unearned income, and persons whose Claims are part of a straddle, hedging, constructive sale, or conversion transaction), other than as expressly indicated herein. In addition, this discussion does not address U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes, nor does it apply to any person that acquires any of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, New Unsecured Notes or New Membership Interests in the secondary market.

This discussion assumes that the Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, Convenience Claims, New Second Lien Convertible Notes, New Unsecured Notes and New Membership Interests are held as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) within the meaning of section 1221 of the Tax Code and that the various debt and other arrangements to which the Debtors are parties will be respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with their form.

The following summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for careful tax planning and advice based upon your own individual circumstances. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor for the U.S. federal, state, local and other tax consequences applicable under the Plan to you.

1. Consequences to the Debtors

Only two of the Debtors are U.S. entities, Heli-One (U.S.) Inc. and Heli-One USA Inc., both of whom are members of the U.S. tax consolidated group of which Heli-One (U.S.) Inc. is the common parent (“CHC U.S. Group”) and join in the filing of a single U.S. consolidated federal income tax return. The Debtors estimate that the CHC U.S. Group has consolidated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $44 million for U.S. federal income tax purposes as of December 31, 2015, subject to applicable limitations. Significantly, the substantial portion of such NOL carryforwards is subject to a pre-existing limitation under section 382 of the Tax Code. In addition, the amount of such NOL carryforwards and other tax attributes, and the extent to which any limitations apply, remain subject to audit and adjustment by the IRS.

 100

The Debtors anticipate that the amount of the NOL carryforwards of the CHC U.S. Group will be reduced to the extent of any cancellation of debt (“COD”) incurred by the CHC U.S. Group as a result of the discharge of any General Unsecured Claims or Convenience Claims against Heli-One (U.S.) Inc. or Heli-One USA Inc. or otherwise in connection with the Debtors’ internal restructuring. The Debtors also anticipate that a further annual limitation under section 382 of the Tax Code will be imposed as a result of the indirect change in ownership of the CHC U.S. Group contemplated by the Plan. Nevertheless, due to the pre-existing section 382 limitation, the Debtors do not expect any reduction in its NOLs as a result of any COD or any new limitation under section 382 of the Tax Code to have a material impact on the Debtors.

2. Consequences to Holders of Certain Claims

This summary discusses the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, and Convenience Claims who are U.S. Holders, and does not discuss tax consequences for those who are not U.S. Holders. As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, or Convenience Claims that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

· an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

· a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

· an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

· a trust, if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or if the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

The tax treatment of a partner in a partnership that holds a Claim generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner in such a partnership, you should consult your own tax advisor.

(a) Taxable Exchange – Gain or Loss

Pursuant to the Plan, and in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions attached hereto as Exhibit D, (i) holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims will receive New Membership Interests and, as applicable, Subscription Rights, (ii) holders of General Unsecured Claims will receive New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes, and (iii) holders of Convenience Claims will receive Cash, in each case from CHC Parent, in satisfaction and discharge of such holders’ rights as against any of the Debtors in respect of such Claims. Pursuant to the Restructuring Transactions, CHC Parent will assume from Debtor CHC SA prior to the Effective Date all of CHC SA’s obligations under and with respect to the Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, and any Allowed General Unsecured Claims for which CHC SA is the primary obligor, and, on the Effective Date, the New Membership Interests, New Unsecured Notes and, as applicable, Subscription Rights will be issued by Reorganized CHC in consideration for Reorganized CHC’s acquisition of all of the Assets of CHC Parent, and distributed by Reorganized CHC on behalf of, and at the direction of, CHC Parent. Reorganized CHC will elect to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, thus, the New Membership Interests and, as discussed below (see Section XI.A.2(e) — “Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as ‘Equity,’” below), the New Second Lien Convertible Notes will be treated as “equity” interests in Reorganized CHC that would be classified as “stock” of Reorganized CHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In addition, the following discussion assumes, except as otherwise discussed below (see Section XI.A.2(c) — “Treatment of Subscription Rights,” below), that the Subscription Rights will be treated in accordance with their form for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 101

In general, U.S. Holders of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim, Unsecured Notes Claim, Allowed General Unsecured Claim, or Allowed Convenience Claim should recognize gain or loss in connection with the implementation of the Plan, regardless of whether the assumption of Claims against CHC SA by CHC Parent is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, each holder should generally recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the aggregate fair market value of the consideration received (namely, New Membership Interests and, as applicable, any Subscription Rights and New Unsecured Notes, irrespective of the issue price of such notes), or, in the case of Convenience Claims, the amount of Cash received, by the holder in respect of its Claim (other than any consideration received in respect of a Claim for accrued but unpaid interest and possibly any accrued OID) and (ii) the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Claim (other than any tax basis attributable to accrued but unpaid interest and possibly accrued OID). In addition, a U.S. Holder of a Claim will have interest income to the extent of any consideration allocable to accrued but unpaid interest not previously included in income. See Section XI.A.2(b) — “Distributions in Discharge of Accrued Interest,” below.

In the event of the subsequent disallowance of any Disputed General Unsecured Claims or Disputed Convenience Claims after the Effective Date, a U.S. Holder of a previously Allowed General Unsecured Claim may receive additional distributions in respect of its Claim. In such instance, the imputed interest provisions of the Tax Code may apply to treat a portion of such additional distributions as imputed interest. In addition, it is possible that any loss realized by a holder may be deferred until all Disputed General Unsecured Claims are resolved (i.e., until the holder has received its final distribution). Alternatively, a holder may recognize additional gain or otherwise be subject to the possible application of the “installment method” of reporting with respect to any gain realized. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the possibility for deferral, and the potential application (and ability to elect out) of the “installment method” of reporting any gain realized in respect of your Claims. The discussion herein assumes that the installment method does not apply.

The characterization of any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss or as ordinary income or loss will be determined by a number of factors, including the tax status of the holder, whether the Claim constitutes a capital asset in the hands of the holder and how long it has been held, whether the Claim was acquired at a market discount, and whether and to what extent the holder previously claimed a bad debt deduction.

A U.S. Holder that purchased its Claims from a prior holder at a market discount (relative to the principal amount of the Claims at the time of acquisition) may be subject to the market discount rules of the Tax Code. In general, a debt instrument is considered to have been acquired with “market discount” if the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the debt instrument is less than (i) its stated principal amount or (ii) in the case of a debt instrument issued with OID, its adjusted issue price, in each case, by at least a de minimis amount. Under these rules, any gain upon satisfaction of such Claim generally will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount accrued (on a straight line basis or, at the election of the holder, on a constant yield basis) during the holder’s period of ownership, unless the holder elected to include the market discount in income as it accrued. If a U.S. Holder did not elect to include market discount in income as it accrued and, thus, under the market discount rules, was required to defer all or a portion of any deductions for interest on debt incurred or maintained to purchase or carry its Claims, such deferred amounts would become deductible at the time of the exchange.

 102

A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the New Membership Interests and, as applicable, any Subscription Rights and New Unsecured Notes received in respect of its Claim on the Effective Date should equal their respective fair market values on the Effective Date. The U.S. Holder’s holding period in such New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes should commence the day following the Effective Date.

(b) Distributions in Discharge of Accrued Interest

In general, to the extent any consideration received pursuant to the Plan by a U.S. Holder of a Claim is received in satisfaction of interest accrued during its holding period, such amount will be taxable to the holder as interest income (if not previously included in the holder’s gross income). Conversely, a U.S. Holder may be entitled to recognize a deductible loss to the extent any accrued interest or amortized OID was previously included in its gross income and is not paid in full. However, the IRS has privately ruled that a holder of a “security” of a corporate issuer, in an otherwise tax-free exchange, could not claim a current deduction with respect to any unpaid OID, and thus by implication, that any loss recognized upon satisfaction of a “security” in a taxable transaction would be a capital loss. Accordingly, it is also unclear whether, by analogy, a U.S. Holder of a Claim that does not constitute a “security” would be required to recognize a capital loss, rather than an ordinary loss, with respect to previously included OID that is not paid in full.

The Plan provides that, except as otherwise required by law (as reasonably determined by the Debtors), consideration received in respect of a Claim is allocable first to the principal amount of the Claim (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent of any excess, to the remainder of the Claim, including any Claim for accrued but unpaid interest (in contrast, for example, to a pro rata allocation of a portion of the consideration received between principal and interest, or an allocation first to accrued but unpaid interest). See Section 6.13 of the Plan. There is no assurance that the IRS will respect such allocation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding the allocation of consideration and the inclusion and deductibility of accrued but unpaid interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c) Treatment of Subscription Rights

The characterization of the Subscription Rights and their subsequent exercise for U.S. federal income tax purposes – as simply the exercise of options to acquire the underlying New Second Lien Convertible Notes or, alternatively, as an integrated transaction pursuant to which the underlying New Second Lien Convertible Notes (including in part as a result of the Equitization Premium) are acquired directly in partial satisfaction of a holder’s Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim – is uncertain.

Regardless of the characterization of the Subscription Rights, a U.S. Holder of Subscription Rights generally would not recognize any gain or loss upon the exercise of such Subscription Rights (beyond the gain or loss recognized in respect of its Claim, as described above).

A U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the New Second Lien Convertible Notes received upon exercise of a Subscription Right should be equal to the sum of the amount paid for the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and the holder’s tax basis in the right exercised (i.e., the fair market value of the Subscription Right). Alternatively, under an integrated transaction analysis, the holder’s aggregate tax basis in the New Second Lien Convertible Notes received should be the fair market value of such notes (which, as discussed below, will be treated as “equity” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, see Section XI.A.2(e) — “Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as ‘Equity,’” below). In the latter instance, the excess of the fair market value over the cash paid would be treated as received in partial satisfaction of the holder’s Claim, in lieu of the Subscription Right. In either instance, a U.S. Holder’s holding period in the New Second Lien Convertible Notes received generally should commence the day following the Effective Date.

 103

It is uncertain whether a holder that receives but does not exercise a Subscription Right should be treated as receiving anything of additional value in respect of its Claim. If the U.S. Holder is treated as having received a Subscription Right of value (despite its subsequent lapse), such that it obtains a tax basis in the Subscription Right, the holder generally would recognize a loss to the extent of the holder’s tax basis in the Subscription Right. In general, such loss would be a short-term capital loss.

(d) Ownership of New Unsecured Notes

(i) OID and Issue Price

In general, a debt instrument will be treated as issued with OID to the extent that its “stated redemption price at maturity” exceeds its “issue price” by more than a de minimis amount. An instrument’s “stated redemption price at maturity” includes all payments required to be made over the term of the instrument other than payments of “qualified stated interest,” defined as interest required to be paid in cash at fixed periodic intervals of one year or less. Because the New Unsecured Notes provide that Reorganized CHC shall pay interest on the notes in the form of “payment-in-kind” interest until the earlier of the maturity or conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, no stated interest on the New Unsecured Notes will be qualified stated interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes (even if paid in cash). The effect of this is to include such interest within the amount of OID on the New Unsecured Notes, which amount is then amortized and generally includable in the holder’s income (as discussed below) over the term of the debt, rather than a holder separately including such interest in income in accordance with the holder’s normal method of tax accounting.

In general, the “issue price” of a debt instrument depends on whether such debt instrument or the property for which it is exchanged is considered traded on an “established market” as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, a debt instrument is not treated as traded on an established market if the outstanding stated principal amount of the issue that includes the debt instrument does not exceed U.S. $100 million (or in the case of a non-U.S. dollar denominated debt instrument, its equivalent in foreign currency). Thus, the New Unsecured Notes themselves will not be treated as traded on an established market. In addition, in accordance with the Restructuring Transactions, the New Unsecured Notes will be issued by Reorganized CHC in partial consideration for Reorganized CHC’s acquisition of all of the Assets of CHC Parent, and distributed by Reorganized CHC on behalf of, and at the direction of, CHC Parent. Thus, the property for which the New Unsecured Notes will be issued (the Assets of CHC Parent) will not be traded on an established market, even though such notes will be immediately distributed to holders of General Unsecured Claims, which claims might be considered traded on an established market. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that that the issue price of the New Unsecured Notes should be their stated principal amount.

As a result, the New Unsecured Notes will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as being issued with OID in an amount equal to the aggregate stated interest payable over the term of the notes. A U.S. Holder generally must include OID in gross income as it accrues over the period it holds the New Unsecured Notes using the “constant yield method” without regard to its regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and in advance of the receipt of cash payments attributable to that income. The amount of OID includible in income for a taxable year by a U.S. Holder generally will equal the sum of the daily portions of the total OID on the debt for each day during the taxable year (or portion thereof) on which such holder held the debt. Generally, the daily portion of the OID is determined by allocating to each day during an accrual period a ratable portion of the OID that is allocable to the accrual period in which such day is included. The amount of OID allocable to each accrual period generally will be an amount equal to the product of the “adjusted issue price” of the New Unsecured Notes at the beginning of such accrual period and its “yield to maturity.” The “adjusted issue price” of the New Unsecured Notes at the beginning of any accrual period will equal their issue price, increased by the total OID accrued for each prior accrual period, less any cash payments made on the debt on or before the first day of the accrual period. The “yield to maturity” of the New Unsecured Notes will be computed on the basis of a constant annual interest rate and compounded at the end of each accrual period.

 104

Any OID that a U.S. Holder includes in income will increase the holder’s tax basis in the New Unsecured Notes. A holder generally will not be required to include separately in income any cash payments received on the New Unsecured Notes (including with respect to the payment of any stated interest, since the stated interest was included in the determination of the amount of OID); instead, such payments will reduce the holder’s tax basis in the New Unsecured Notes by the amount of the payment.

The amount of OID includible in a U.S. Holder’s gross income with respect to a New Unsecured Note will be reduced if the note is acquired at an “acquisition premium” or with “bond premium,” as discussed below.

(ii) Market Discount

Any U.S. Holder that has a tax basis in a New Unsecured Note received that is less than its issue price (i.e., its stated principal amount) generally will be subject to the market discount rules of the Tax Code (unless such difference is less than a de minimis amount). Under the market discount rules, a holder is required to treat any principal payment on, or any gain recognized on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of, a New Unsecured Note as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount that has not previously been included in income and is treated as having accrued on such note at the time of such payment or disposition. A holder could be required to defer the deduction of a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase or to carry a market discount note, unless an election is made to include all market discount in income as it accrues. Such an election would apply to all notes and other bonds acquired by the holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies, and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS.

Any market discount will be considered to accrue on a straight-line basis during the period from the date of acquisition of such New Unsecured Notes to the maturity date of the notes, unless the holder irrevocably elects to compute the accrual on a constant yield basis. This election can be made on a note-by-note basis.

(iii) Acquisition and Bond Premium

A holder will be treated as having “acquisition premium” in a New Unsecured Note if the holder’s tax basis in the note is greater than the issue price of the note (i.e., its stated principal amount), but is less than or equal to the “stated redemption price at maturity” of the note. If a U.S. Holder has acquisition premium, the amount of any OID includible in its gross income in any taxable year with respect to such note generally will be reduced by an allocable portion of the acquisition premium (generally determined by multiplying the annual OID accrual with respect to such note by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the acquisition premium, and the denominator of which is the total OID).

 105

If a U.S. Holder has a tax basis in a New Unsecured Note that exceeds the “stated redemption price at maturity” of such note, the note will be treated as having “bond premium” and the holder generally will not include any of the OID in income. A U.S. Holder may elect to amortize any bond premium over the period from its acquisition of the note to the maturity of the note, in which case the holder should have an ordinary deduction (and a corresponding reduction in tax basis in the note for purposes of computing gain or loss) in the amount of such bond premium upon the sale or other disposition of the note, including the repayment of principal. If such an election to amortize bond premium is not made, a holder will receive a tax benefit from the premium only in computing such holder’s gain or loss upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the note, including the repayment of principal.

An election to amortize bond premium will apply to amortizable bond premium on all notes and other bonds the interest on which is includible in the U.S. Holder’s gross income and that are held at, or acquired after, the beginning of the holder’s taxable year as to which the election is made. The election may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS.

(e) Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as “Equity”

As discussed herein, the Debtors will treat the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as “equity” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For an instrument with both debt-like and equity-like features to be considered “debt” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the instrument must represent an unqualified obligation to pay a sum certain with interest regardless of the debtor’s income or lack thereof. Conversely, if there is not an unqualified obligation to pay a sum certain, and the instrument represents an embarking on the corporate venture such that the holder takes the risks of loss so that it might share in the profits of success, such instrument generally will be considered “equity” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Congress and Treasury have generally left such determination up to the courts, which have developed a multi-factored test based on facts and circumstances with no one factor determinative. Because, among other things, the New Second Lien Convertible Notes are mandatorily convertible into New Membership Interests in all events (other than in the event of a default prior to their 3.5 year maturity, which is not expected to occur), the notes have unlimited participation in corporate growth in that the holders of the notes participate in dividends and, in the event of liquidation, capture their share of any growth beyond the notes’ stated principal amount, and because holders are entitled to vote on all matters upon which the holders of ordinary shares may vote (on an as converted basis), the Debtors believe that the New Second Lien Convertible Notes are properly regarded as “equity” for U.S federal income tax purposes, and the discussion herein so assumes.

In addition, the Debtors believe that the New Second Lien Convertible Notes should be considered “participating stock” for U.S. federal income tax purposes that generally should not be subject to the preferred OID rules under section 305 of the Tax Code. No regulations or other administrative guidance have been issued addressing an instrument with terms similar to the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, and, consequently, there is uncertainty regarding the application of the preferred OID rules to the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

Consistent with the foregoing, the Plan provides, and the governing instrument of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes will require, subject to definitive guidance from the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary, and unless prohibited by applicable law, that the New Second Lien Convertible Notes be treated by all parties, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as equity (that is not preferred stock for purposes of section 305 of the Tax Code).

Accordingly, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of New Second Lien Convertible Notes generally should be the same as those discussed in respect of New Membership Interests, unless indicated otherwise herein. See Section XI.A.2(f) — “Ownership and Disposition of New Stock,” below.

 106

A U.S. Holder generally will not recognize any gain or loss in respect of the receipt of additional New Membership Interests upon the conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes. The adjusted tax basis of the New Membership Interests received should be determined based on the tax basis of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes in respect of which the interests are received, by taking the tax basis of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes and allocating it among the New Membership Interests and the remaining portion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes based on relative fair market value. The holding period of the New Membership Interests received on conversion will generally include the holding period for the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

As discussed, the characterization and treatment of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes is subject to uncertainty. Each holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, including in the event the New Second Lien Convertible Notes were held to be either (i) debt, rather than stock, for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) preferred stock for purposes of section 305 of the Tax Code. In such event, the resulting tax consequences could be materially adverse to a holder, including the required annual inclusion in income of any OID.

(f) Ownership and Disposition of New Stock

Although the following discussion refers principally to the New Membership Interests, such discussion should apply equally to New Second Lien Convertible Notes (unless indicated otherwise herein), given their treatment as stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(i) General Treatment

The following discussion is qualified in part by the discussion below regarding the possible treatment as a PFIC or a CFC. See Section XI.A.2(f)(ii) — “Possible Treatment of Reorganized CHC as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Controlled Foreign Corporation,” below.

(a) Cash Payments and other Cash Distributions on the New Stock

In general, any cash distributions with respect to the New Membership Interests will be treated as a taxable dividend to the extent paid out of Reorganized CHC’s current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles (“earnings and profits”), and will be includible by the U.S. Holder as ordinary income when received. To the extent the amount of any distribution exceeds available earnings and profits with respect to such distribution, the excess will be applied against and will reduce the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis (on a dollar-for-dollar basis) in respect of the New Membership Interests as to which the distribution was made, but not below zero. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of New Membership Interests, with the consequences discussed below. See Section XI.A.2(f)(i)(b) — “Disposition of New Stock,” below. The Debtors do not expect that U.S. Holders will have access to a record of Reorganized Debtors’ earnings and profits computed in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, U.S. Holders should expect that a cash payment or distribution on New Membership Interests will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).

Any such taxable dividends received by a U.S. Holder will not be eligible for the “dividends received deduction” for corporate U.S. Holders. Any such taxable dividends will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation as “qualified dividend income” for non-corporate U.S. Holders unless they are received at a time when the New Membership Interests (or New Second Lien Convertible Notes, as applicable) are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States (including, e.g., being listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ), provided, however, that Reorganized CHC is not treated as a PFIC at such time. See Section XI.A.2(f)(ii) — “Possible Treatment of Reorganized CHC as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Controlled Foreign Corporation,” below. See Section X.D.1 — “Risks Relating to the Securities to be Issued Under the Plan — No Current Public Market for Securities.”

 107

(b) Disposition of New Stock

Unless a nonrecognition provision applies and subject to the discussion above with respect to market discount (see Section XI.A.2(a) — “Taxable Exchange – Gain or Loss,” above) and the discussion below, U.S. Holders generally will recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or exchange (other than pursuant to a conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes) of the New Membership Interests in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the holder’s adjusted tax basis in the New Membership Interests held and (ii) the sum of the cash and the fair market value of any property received from such disposition. Any such gain or loss generally should be long-term if the holder’s holding period for its New Membership Interests held is more than one year at that time. A reduced tax rate on long-term capital gain may apply to non-corporate holders. The deductibility of capital loss is subject to significant limitations. In the event that Reorganized CHC defaults on the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, such that the principal amount of the notes, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, become immediately payable in cash to the holders thereof, such payments will be treated as a redemption of “stock” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See Section XI.A.2(e) — “Tax Treatment of New Second Lien Convertible Notes as ‘Equity,’” above. Under certain circumstances, such a redemption could be regarded as a distribution on “stock” and, thus, potentially treated as a taxable dividend, rather than as a sale or exchange, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See Section XI.A.2(f)(i)(a) — “Cash Payments and other Cash Distributions on the New Stock,” above. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of payments that are made in default of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

(ii) Possible Treatment of Reorganized CHC as a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Controlled Foreign Corporation

It is uncertain whether, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, a foreign corporation will be classified as a PFIC if (i) 75% or more of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any company treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. or foreign, in which the foreign corporation is considered to own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the shares by value, is passive income, or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year, averaged quarterly over the year and ordinarily determined based on fair market value and including its pro rata share of the assets of any company treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. or foreign, in which the foreign corporation is considered to own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the shares by value, produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. Passive income for this purpose includes, among other items, interest, dividends, royalties, rents and annuities. Even if the Debtors do not believe that, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC, there can be no assurance (i) that the IRS will not take a contrary position or (ii) that Reorganized CHC or one of its subsidiaries will not be or later become a PFIC in the future. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding whether Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a PFIC and, if so, the U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of holding New Membership Interests.

 108

Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries may be classified as a CFC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, although the Debtors do not expect that, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a CFC. In general, a foreign corporation will be classified as a CFC if more than 50% of the shares of the corporation, measured by reference to combined voting power or value, is owned (directly, indirectly or by attribution) by “U.S. Shareholders.” A “U.S. Shareholder,” for this purpose, is any U.S. person that possesses (directly, indirectly or by attribution) 10% or more of the combined voting power (generally the right to vote for directors of the corporation) of all classes of shares of a foreign corporation. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not successfully assert (i) that, as of the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will have been treated as a CFC or (ii) that Reorganized CHC or one of its subsidiaries will not be or later become a CFC. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding whether Reorganized CHC or any of its subsidiaries will be treated as a CFC and, if so, the U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of holding New Membership Interests.

(a) Distributions on and Disposition of New Stock if Reorganized CHC is a PFIC

If Reorganized CHC is characterized as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder would be subject to a tax at the time of the sale of its New Membership Interests or on the receipt of an “excess distribution” with respect to its New Membership Interests, unless a “qualified electing fund” (“QEF”) election is made with respect to such holder’s New Membership Interests. A U.S. Holder is treated as receiving an “excess distribution” from a PFIC if the amount of the distribution is more than 125% of the average distribution with respect to such holder’s stock during the three preceding taxable years (or shorter period during which the holder held its stock). In general, the tax is equivalent to an interest charge based on the value of the tax deferral of the taxes that are deemed due during the period the U.S. Holder owned its New Membership Interests, computed by assuming that the excess distribution or gain (in the case of a sale) with respect to such New Membership Interests was taxed in equal portions throughout the holder’s period of ownership at the highest marginal ordinary income tax rate. The interest charge is computed using the applicable rate imposed on underpayments of U.S. federal income tax for such period. The interest charge is not imposed on amounts allocable to pre-PFIC years or the current year. Those amounts are included as ordinary income in the current year. The entire amount of gain realized by a U.S. Holder upon the sale or other disposition of its New Membership Interests will also be treated as an excess distribution and will be subject to this tax. These adverse PFIC tax rules would apply to a U.S. Holder’s indirect interest in each of any lower tier PFICs as well. If Reorganized CHC is characterized as a PFIC and a U.S. Holder makes a timely QEF election with respect to such holder’s New Membership Interests, then, in lieu of the consequences described above, the U.S. Holder would be required to include in income each year its pro-rata share of the Reorganized CHC’s net capital gain and ordinary income. The Debtors may, but are not required to, provide the information necessary for U.S. Holders to make or maintain a QEF election, including information necessary to determine the appropriate income inclusion amounts for purposes of the QEF election. It is unclear whether U.S. Holders could make a mark-to-market election with respect to the New Membership Interests – which provides an alternative to the adverse PFIC tax rules discussed above – since there might not exist the requisite market. Even if a mark-to-market election was available, it would not apply to avoid the adverse tax rules discussed above with respect to a U.S. Holder’s interest in any lower tier PFICS.

The rules relating to PFICs are complex. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding whether Reorganized CHC will be treated as a PFIC and, if so, the U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of holding the New Membership Interests.

(b) Deemed Dividends and Actual Distributions on New Stock if Reorganized CHC is a Controlled Foreign Corporation

 109

If Reorganized CHC is treated as a CFC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Shareholder of Reorganized CHC would be treated, subject to certain exceptions, as receiving a deemed dividend at the end of the taxable year from Reorganized CHC in an amount equal to that person’s pro rata share of the “Subpart F income” (and certain investments in United States property) of Reorganized CHC to the extent of Reorganized CHC’s earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Such deemed dividend would be treated as income from sources within the United States for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes to the extent that it is attributable to income of Reorganized CHC from sources within the United States. Among other items, and subject to certain exceptions, “Subpart F income” includes dividends, interest, annuities, gains from the sale or exchange of shares and securities, certain gains from commodities transactions, certain types of insurance income and income from certain transactions with related parties. If a CFC’s Subpart F income exceeds 70% of its gross income for a taxable year, the entire amount of the CFC’s income for such taxable year will be treated as Subpart F income.

Any actual distributions made by Reorganized CHC to a U.S. Holder will be taxable in the manner described above in Section XI.A.2(f)(i)(a) — “Cash Payments and Other Distributions on the New Stock” to the extent that such amounts have not previously been included in income as a deemed dividend by such holder.

The rules relating to CFCs are complex. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding whether Reorganized CHC will be treated as a CFC and, if so, the U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of holding the New Membership Interests.

3. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of interest (including accruals of OID) or dividends and any other reportable payments, possibly including amounts received pursuant to the Plan and payments of proceeds from the sale, retirement or other disposition of the consideration to holders, may be subject to U.S. “backup withholding” (currently at a rate of 28%) if a recipient of those payments fails to furnish to the payor certain identifying information and, in some cases, a certification that the recipient is not subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts deducted and withheld generally should be allowed as a credit against that recipient’s U.S. federal income tax, provided that appropriate proof is timely provided under rules established by the IRS. Furthermore, certain penalties may be imposed by the IRS on a recipient of payments who is required to supply information but who does not do so in the proper manner. Backup withholding generally should not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and financial institutions. Information may also be required to be provided to the IRS concerning payments, unless an exemption applies. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding your qualification for exemption from backup withholding and information reporting and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

Treasury regulations generally require disclosure by a taxpayer on its U.S. federal income tax return of certain types of transactions in which the taxpayer participated, including, among other types of transactions, certain transactions that result in the taxpayer’s claiming a loss in excess of certain thresholds. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding these regulations and whether the contemplated transactions under the Plan would be subject to these regulations and require disclosure on your tax return.

The foregoing summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for careful tax planning and advice based upon your own individual circumstances. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor for the U.S. federal, state, local and other tax consequences applicable under the Plan to you.

B. Cayman Islands Tax Considerations

CHC Parent and the Cayman Debtors are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands as exempted companies with limited liability. Exempted companies are Cayman Islands companies whose objects are carried out mainly outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempt from complying with certain provisions of the Cayman Companies Law. Reorganized CHC will be formed and will be registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands as a limited liability company.

The Cayman Islands currently have no form of income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax.

Reorganized CHC will apply for, and expects to receive, a tax exemption undertaking from the Governor in Cabinet of the Cayman Islands that, in accordance with section 58 of the Limited Liability Companies Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 50 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits or income or gains or appreciations shall apply to Reorganized CHC or to any member thereof in respect of the operations or assets of Reorganized CHC or membership interest of any member therein and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits or income or gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable in respect of the obligations of Reorganized CHC or the interests of members therein.

Certain of the other Debtors have also received undertakings in similar form.

XII.
Voting Procedures and Requirements

A. Parties Entitled to Vote

Under the Bankruptcy Code, only holders of claims or interests in “impaired” classes are entitled to vote on a plan. Under section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, a class of claims or interests is deemed to be “impaired” under a plan unless (i) the plan leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights to which such claim or interest entitles the holder thereof or (ii) notwithstanding any legal right to an accelerated payment of such claim or interest, the plan cures all existing defaults (other than defaults resulting from the occurrence of events of bankruptcy) and reinstates the maturity of such claim or interest as it existed before the default.

If, however, the holder of an impaired claim or interest will not receive or retain any distribution under the plan on account of such claim or interest, section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code deems such holder to have rejected the plan, and, accordingly, holders of such claims and interests do not actually vote on the plan. If a claim or interest is not impaired by the plan, section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code deems the holder of such claim or interest to have accepted the plan and, accordingly, holders of such claims and interests are not entitled to vote on the Plan.

 111

A vote may be disregarded if the Bankruptcy Court determines, pursuant to section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, that it was not solicited or procured in good faith or in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Bankruptcy Code defines “acceptance” of a plan by a class of claims as acceptance by creditors in that class that hold at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount and more than one-half (1/2) in number of the claims that cast ballots for acceptance or rejection of the plan.

The Claims in the following Classes are Impaired under the Plan and entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan:

· Class 3 – Revolving Credit Agreement Claims

· Class 4 – ABL Credit Agreement Claims

· Class 5 – Senior Secured Notes Claims

· Class 6 – Unsecured Notes Claims

· Class 7 – Primary General Unsecured Claims

· Class 8 – Convenience Claims

B. Voting Deadline

Before voting to accept or reject the Plan, each holder of an Allowed Revolving Credit Agreement Claim, an Allowed ABL Credit Agreement Claim, an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim, an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim, an Allowed General Unsecured Claim, or an Allowed Convenience Claim, as applicable and as of the Voting Record Date (as defined below), should carefully review the Plan attached hereto as Exhibit B. All descriptions of the Plan set forth in this Disclosure Statement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

“Ballots” will be provided for holders of Voting Claims as of December 20, 2016 (the “Voting Record Date”) to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Because all other Classes are Unimpaired and deemed to accept, or are Impaired and will not receive or retain any distribution under the Plan on account of such interests and, thus, are deemed to reject, only Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are entitled to vote.

Each Ballot contains detailed voting instructions and sets forth in detail, among other things, the deadlines, procedures, and instructions for voting to accept or reject the Plan, and the Voting Record Date for voting purposes.

The Debtors have engaged KCC as their voting agent to assist in the transmission of voting materials and in the tabulation of votes with respect to the Plan. FOR YOUR VOTE TO BE COUNTED, IT MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE VOTING AGENT AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH BELOW ON OR BEFORE THE VOTING DEADLINE OF [5:00 P.M.], PREVAILING CENTRAL TIME, ON [●], 2017 (THE “VOTING DEADLINE”), UNLESS EXTENDED BY THE DEBTORS. IF YOU HOLD YOUR SENIOR SECURED NOTES CLAIMS OR UNSECURED NOTES CLAIMS THROUGH A NOMINEE, PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY YOUR NOMINEE FOR RETURNING YOUR BENEFICIAL HOLDER BALLOT. UNLESS OTHERWISE INSTRUCTED, PLEASE RETURN YOUR BENEFICIAL HOLDER BALLOT TO YOUR NOMINEE OR YOUR VOTE WILL NOT BE COUNTED.

 112

Delivery of a Ballot by facsimile, e-mail or any other electronic means will not be accepted. Ballots must be returned by the Voting Deadline with an original signed copy to:

Class 3, 4, 7, and 8 Ballots   CHC Ballot Processing Center
c/o KCC
2335 Alaska Avenue
El Segundo, CA 90245 Class 5 and 6 Master Ballots¹¹   CHC Ballot Processing Center
c/o KCC
1290 Avenue of the Americas
9th Floor
New York, NY 10104

ANY BALLOT THAT IS EXECUTED AND RETURNED BUT WHICH DOES NOT INDICATE EITHER AN ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN OR INDICATES BOTH AN ACCEPTANCE AND A REJECTION OF THE PLAN WILL NOT BE COUNTED. THE DEBTORS, IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION, MAY REQUEST THAT THE VOTING AGENT ATTEMPT TO CONTACT SUCH VOTERS TO CURE ANY SUCH DEFECTS IN THE BALLOTS. THE FAILURE TO VOTE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN. YOU WILL, HOWEVER, STILL BE BOUND BY THE PLAN, IF CONFIRMED. AN OBJECTION TO CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN, EVEN IF TIMELY SERVED, DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE PLAN.

Article X of the Plan contains release, exculpation, and injunction provisions, including third party releases. If the Plan is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, these provisions will (with limited exceptions) be binding on all holders of a Claim against or Interest in any Debtor, regardless of whether the Claim or Interest of such holder is Impaired under the Plan and whether such holder has accepted the Plan.

C. Voting Procedures

The Debtors are providing copies of this Disclosure Statement (including all exhibits and appendices) and related materials and a Ballot (collectively, a “Solicitation Package”) to record holders of the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, or Convenience Claims, as applicable, as of the Voting Record Date. Record holders of Senior Secured Notes Claims and Unsecured Notes Claims, as applicable, may include Nominees. If such Nominees do not hold Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims for their own account, they must provide copies of the Solicitation Package to their customers that are the beneficial holders thereof as of the Voting Record Date. Any beneficial holder of the Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims who has not received a Beneficial Holder Ballot (as defined below) should contact his, her, or its Nominee, or the Voting Agent. The Senior Secured Notes Indenture Trustee and the Unsecured Notes Indenture Trustee will not vote on behalf of their respective holders. Each beneficial holder of the Senior Secured Notes Claims and Unsecured Notes Claims must submit its own Ballot.

¹¹ If you receive a Class 5 or a Class 6 Beneficial Holder Ballot, please return such Beneficial Holder Ballot to your Nominee (as defined below). The Master Ballot is to be used by a broker, bank, commercial bank, trust company, dealer, or other agent or nominee of a beneficial holder (each of the foregoing, a “Nominee”), or by the proxy holder of a beneficial holder of a Class 5 Senior Secured Notes Claim or a Class 6 Unsecured Notes Claim, to transmit to the Voting Agent the votes of such beneficial holders in respect of their Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims, as applicable.

 113

Holders of Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, and Convenience Claims, as applicable, should provide all of the information requested by the Ballot. The Ballots for holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims will include an option to elect to have the holder’s General Unsecured Claim irrevocably reduced to the Convenience Claim Amount and, therefore, to be treated as holders of Convenience Claims. Holders of Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, and Convenience Claims, as applicable, should complete and return all Ballots received in the enclosed, self-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided with each such Ballot either to the Voting Agent or their Nominee, as applicable.

1. Beneficial Holders

A beneficial holder who holds Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims as a record holder in its own name should vote on the Plan by completing and signing a Ballot (a “Beneficial Holder Ballot”) and returning it directly to the Voting Agent on or before the Voting Deadline using the enclosed self-addressed, postage-paid envelope.

A beneficial holder who holds the Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims in “street name” through a Nominee may vote on the Plan by the following method:

· Complete and sign the enclosed Beneficial Holder Ballot. Return the Beneficial Holder Ballot to your Nominee as promptly as possible and in sufficient time to allow such Nominee to process your instructions and return a completed Master Ballot to the Voting Agent by the Voting Deadline. If your Nominee has provided you with a deadline by which to return your Beneficial Holder Ballot to your Nominee, you should comply with such date. If no self-addressed, postage-paid envelope was enclosed for this purpose, contact the Voting Agent for instructions.

Any Beneficial Holder Ballot returned to a Nominee by a beneficial holder will not be counted for purposes of acceptance or rejection of the Plan until such Nominee properly and timely completes and delivers to the Voting Agent that Beneficial Holder Ballot (properly validated) or a Master Ballot casting the vote of such beneficial holder.

If any beneficial holder owns the Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims through more than one Nominee, such beneficial holder may receive multiple mailings containing the Beneficial Holder Ballots. The beneficial holder should execute a separate Beneficial Holder Ballot for each block of the Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims that it holds through any particular Nominee and return each Beneficial Holder Ballot to the respective Nominee in the return envelope provided therewith (or otherwise follow each Nominee’s instructions). Beneficial holders who execute multiple Beneficial Holder Ballots with respect to Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims in a single class held through more than one Nominee must indicate on each Beneficial Holder Ballot the names of all such other Nominees and the additional amounts of such Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims so held and voted. A beneficial holder who executes multiple Beneficial Holder Ballots with respect to Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims in a single class must vote the same on each Beneficial Holder Ballot for the votes to be counted.

2. Nominees

A Nominee that, on the Voting Record Date, is the record holder of the Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims for one or more beneficial holders can obtain the votes of the beneficial holders of such Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims, consistent with customary practices for obtaining the votes of securities held in “street name,” in the following way:

 114

· The Nominee shall obtain the votes of beneficial holders by forwarding to the beneficial holders the unsigned Beneficial Holder Ballots, together with the Solicitation Package, a pre-addressed, postage-paid return envelope provided by, and addressed to, the Nominee, and other materials requested to be forwarded. Each such beneficial holder must then indicate his, her, or its vote on the Beneficial Holder Ballot, complete the information requested on the Beneficial Holder Ballot, review the certifications contained on the Beneficial Holder Ballot, execute the Beneficial Holder Ballot, and return the Beneficial Holder Ballot to the Nominee. After collecting the Beneficial Holder Ballots, the Nominee should, in turn, complete a Master Ballot compiling the votes and other information from the Beneficial Holder Ballots, execute the Master Ballot, and deliver the Master Ballot to the Voting Agent so that it is RECEIVED by the Voting Agent on or before the Voting Deadline. All copies of Beneficial Holder Ballots returned by beneficial holders should also be forwarded to the Voting Agent (along with the Master Ballot). EACH NOMINEE SHOULD ADVISE ITS BENEFICIAL HOLDERS TO RETURN THEIR BENEFICIAL HOLDER BALLOTS TO THE NOMINEE BY A DATE CALCULATED BY THE NOMINEE TO ALLOW IT SUFFICIENT TIME TO PREPARE AND RETURN THE MASTER BALLOT TO THE VOTING AGENT SO THAT IT IS RECEIVED BY THE VOTING AGENT ON OR BEFORE THE VOTING DEADLINE.

3. Miscellaneous

All Ballots must be signed by the holder of record of the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, or Convenience Claims, as applicable, or any person who has obtained a properly completed Ballot proxy from the record holder of the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims, or Convenience Claims, as applicable, on such date. For purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan, the beneficial holders of the Senior Secured Notes Claims will be deemed to be the “holders” of the Claims represented by such Senior Secured Notes. For purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan, the beneficial holders of the Unsecured Notes Claims will be deemed “holders” of the Claims represented by such Unsecured Notes. If you return more than one Ballot voting different Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, ABL Credit Agreement Claims, Senior Secured Notes Claims, Unsecured Notes Claims, General Unsecured Claims,or Convenience Claims, as applicable, the Ballots are not voted in the same manner, and you do not correct this before the Voting Deadline, those Ballots will not be counted.An otherwise properly executed Ballot (other than a Master Ballot) that indicates both an acceptance and a rejection of the Plan, or otherwise attempts to partially accept and partially reject the Plan, likewise will not be counted. If you cast more than one Ballot voting the same Claim(s) before the Voting Deadline, the last valid Ballot received on or before the Voting Deadline will be deemed to reflect your intent, and thus, will supersede any prior Ballot. If you cast Ballots received by KCC on the same day, but which are voted inconsistently, such Ballots will not be counted.

The Beneficial Holder Ballots provided to beneficial holders will reflect the principal amount of such beneficial holder’s Claim; however, when tabulating votes, the Voting Agent may adjust the amount of such beneficial holder’s Claim by multiplying the principal amount by a factor that reflects all amounts accrued between the Petition Date and the Voting Record Date including, without limitation, interest.

 115

Except as provided below, unless the Ballot is timely submitted to the Voting Agent before the Voting Deadline together with any other documents required by such Ballot, the Debtors, with the consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Plan Sponsors, not to be unreasonably withheld, may reject such Ballot as invalid, and therefore decline to utilize it in connection with seeking confirmation of the Plan.

4. Fiduciaries And Other Representatives

If a Beneficial Holder Ballot is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation, or another acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should indicate such capacity when signing and, if requested, must submit proper evidence satisfactory to the Debtors of authority to so act. Authorized signatories should submit the separate Beneficial Holder Ballot of each beneficial holder for whom they are voting.

UNLESS THE BALLOT OR THE MASTER BALLOT IS SUBMITTED TO THE VOTING AGENT ON OR PRIOR TO THE VOTING DEADLINE, SUCH BALLOT WILL BE REJECTED AS INVALID AND WILL NOT BE COUNTED AS AN ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE DEBTORS RESERVE THE RIGHT, WITH THE CONSENT OF THE CREDITORS’ COMMITTEE AND THE REQUISITE PLAN SPONSORS, NOT TO BE UNREASONABLY WITHHELD, TO REQUEST THE BANKRUPTCY COURT TO ALLOW SUCH BALLOT TO BE COUNTED.

5. Agreements Upon Furnishing Ballots

The delivery of an accepting Ballot pursuant to one of the procedures set forth above will constitute the agreement of the Claim holder with respect to such Ballot to accept (i) all of the terms of, and conditions to, this solicitation; and (ii) the terms of the Plan including the injunction, releases, and exculpations set forth in Sections 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 therein. All parties in interest retain their right to object to confirmation of the Plan pursuant to section 1128 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to any applicable terms of the Plan Support Agreement. Holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors, however, will still be bound by the Plan if it is confirmed, including certain injunctions, releases, and exculpations set forth therein, regardless of whether such holders fail to vote or vote to reject the Plan.

6. Change of Vote

Any party who has previously submitted to the Voting Agent prior to the Voting Deadline a properly completed Ballot may revoke such Ballot and change its vote by submitting to the Voting Agent prior to the Voting Deadline a subsequent, properly completed Ballot for acceptance or rejection of the Plan.

D. Waivers of Defects, Irregularities, etc.

Unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt), acceptance, and revocation or withdrawals of Ballots will be determined by the Voting Agent and/or the Debtors, as applicable, with the consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Plan Sponsors, not to be unreasonably withheld, which determination will be final and binding. The Debtors reserve the right to reject any and all Ballots submitted by any of their respective Claim holders not in proper form, the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of the Debtors or their counsel, as applicable, be unlawful. The Debtors further reserve their respective rights to waive any defects or irregularities or conditions of delivery as to any particular Ballot by any of their Claim holders, with the consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Plan Sponsors, not to be unreasonably withheld. The interpretation (including the Ballot and the respective instructions thereto) by the applicable Debtor and the Requisite Plan Sponsors, unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with deliveries of Ballots must be cured within such time as the Debtors and the Requisite Plan Sponsors (or the Bankruptcy Court) determines. Neither the Debtors nor any other person will be under any duty to provide notification of defects or irregularities with respect to deliveries of Ballots nor will any of them incur any liabilities for failure to provide such notification. Unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, delivery of such Ballots will not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Ballots previously furnished (and as to which any irregularities have not theretofore been cured or waived) will be invalidated.

 116

XIII.
Rights Offering Procedures

A. Introduction

In connection with the Plan, after having obtained approval of the procedures described below (the “Rights Offering Procedures”) by entry an order of the Bankruptcy Court (such approval, the “Rights Offering Order”), Reorganized CHC will launch the Rights Offering to Eligible Offerees, pursuant to which the Eligible Offerees will be offered a Subscription Right to purchase up to such Eligible Offeree’s Pro Rata portion of approximately $433.3 million aggregate principal amount of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, at an aggregate purchase price equal to $300.0 million.

An Eligible Offeree is a holder or transferee of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim, in each case who is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”), as of the Rights Offering Record Date (as defined below). A Non-Eligible Offeree is a holder of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim that is not an Accredited Investor.

Only Eligible Offerees may participate in the Rights Offering. In lieu of Subscription Rights, Non-Eligible Offerees will be given the opportunity to receive a Substitute Distribution consisting of New Membership Interests.

These Rights Offering Procedures, upon entry of the Rights Offering Order, will govern the ability of Eligible Offerees to participate in the Rights Offering and Non-Eligible Offerees to receive the Substitute Distribution.

All questions relating to these Rights Offering Procedures, other documents associated with the Rights Offering, or the requirements to participate in the Rights Offering should be directed to KCC, the subscription agent (the “Subscription Agent”) at:

Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC
1290 Avenue of the Americas, 9^th Floor
New York, NY 10104
Attention: CHC Group Ltd
Tel: (877) 833-4150

These Rights Offering Procedures, the Offering Form and the accompanying Instructions should be read carefully before exercise of the Rights, as strict compliance with their terms is required.  Holders of Subscription Rights may wish to seek legal advice concerning the Rights Offering.

 117

B. Rights Offering

To exercise its Subscription Right in the Rights Offering, an Eligible Offeree must directly or through its Subscription Nominee (as defined below) (i) complete the offering form, which will accompany the Ballot distributed in connection with the solicitation of acceptances of the Plan following entry of the Rights Offering Order, entitling such Eligible Offeree to exercise its Subscription Rights, in whole or in part (the “Offering Form”), and (ii) pay the purchase price (other than the Backstop Parties) which (x) in the case of holders of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim, is an amount equal to its Pro Rata share of $280.0 million (which will purchase its Pro Rata share of approximately $404.4 million in face amount of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as of the Effective Date) and (y) in the case of holders of an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim, is an amount equal to its Pro Rata share of $20.0 million (which will purchase its Pro Rata share of approximately $28.9 million in face amount of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes as of the Effective Date) (in each case, as applicable, the “Purchase Price”), such Pro Rata share will be calculated as the proportion that an Eligible Offeree’s Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim, as applicable, bears to the aggregate amount¹² of all Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims or Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, respectively, as of [●], 2016 (the “Rights Offering Record Date”), rounded down to the nearest dollar.

Each Eligible Offeree may exercise all, some, or none of its Subscription Rights, and the Purchase Price for such Eligible Offeree will be adjusted accordingly. The principal amount of New Second Lien Convertible Notes issued to an Eligible Offeree who elects to purchase such New Second Lien Convertible Notes shall also be rounded down to the nearest dollar.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Subscription Rights shall not be transferable, assignable or detachable other than in connection with the transfer of the corresponding Senior Secured Notes Claims or Unsecured Notes Claims, as applicable, and other than in accordance with these Rights Offering Procedures. See Section XIII.E(d) below for more information related to transfers and the procedures related thereto.

C. The Backstop Commitment

The Rights Offering will be backstopped by the Backstop Parties. Each of the Backstop Parties, severally¹³ and not jointly, has agreed, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Backstop Agreement, to purchase all New Second Lien Convertible Notes that are not purchased by other Eligible Offerees pursuant to the Rights Offering (the “Unsubscribed Notes”), in accordance with the Backstop Percentages.¹⁴ To compensate the Backstop Parties for the risk of their undertakings in the Backstop Agreement and as consideration for the Backstop Commitment, Reorganized CHC or the Debtors, as applicable, will pay to such Backstop Parties the Put Option Premium pursuant to the terms and conditions in the Backstop Agreement.

¹² For the avoidance of doubt, this amount includes the outstanding principal amount of such claims and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Petition Date, but not including any post-petition interest.

¹³ For the avoidance of doubt, each Backstop Party shall be liable for its Pro Rata share of the Backstop Commitment of any Backstop Party which breaches its obligations, up to an aggregate amount of $20.0 million for all Backstop Parties as set forth in the Backstop Agreement.

¹⁴ For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, has agreed to purchase on a Pro Rata basis any New Second Lien Convertible Notes that are not purchased on account of any Non-Eligible Offerees.

 118

There will be no over-subscription privilege in the Rights Offering. The Unsubscribed Notes will not be offered to other Eligible Offerees but will instead be purchased by the Backstop Parties in accordance with the Backstop Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights and obligations of the Backstop Parties in the Rights Offering shall be governed by the Backstop Agreement.

D. Commencement/Expiration of the Rights Offering

The Rights Offering shall commence on the day upon which the Offering Forms are distributed in connection with the solicitation and acceptances of the Plan (the “Rights Commencement Date”), which is expected to be no later than the fifth Business Day (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) after entry of the Rights Offering Order. The Rights Offering shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (Central Standard Time) on the Voting Deadline, or such other date as Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent may agree, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court (if applicable), and the reasonable consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, and Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent shall specify in a notice provided to the Backstop Parties before 9:00 a.m. (Central Standard Time) on the Business Day before the then-effective Rights Expiration Time (such time and date, as may be extended, the “Rights Expiration Time”). Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent shall promptly notify, or cause to be notified, the holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims and Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims of any extension of the new Rights Expiration Time.

Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent will furnish, or cause to be furnished, Offering Forms to the applicable brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies, or other agents or nominees of the holders of Senior Secured Notes and Unsecured Notes (the “Subscription Nominees”). Each Subscription Nominee will be entitled to receive sufficient copies of the Offering Form for distribution to the beneficial holders of Senior Secured Notes and Unsecured Notes (the Senior Secured Notes and Unsecured Notes, together, collectively, the “Existing Notes”) for whom such Subscription Nominee holds Existing Notes.

E. Exercise of Subscription Rights

Each Eligible Offeree that elects to participate in the Rights Offering must affirmatively make a binding, irrevocable election to exercise its Subscription Rights (the “Binding Rights Election”) before the Rights Expiration Time.

The Binding Rights Election, upon receipt by the Subscription Agent, cannot be withdrawn.

Each Eligible Offeree is entitled to participate in the Rights Offering solely to the extent provided in these Rights Offering Procedures, except in the case of Eligible Offerees who are Backstop Parties, who have agreed to participate in the Rights Offering to the extent provided in the Backstop Agreement.

Each participating Eligible Offeree who submits a Binding Rights Election shall be notified of its receipt and acceptance.

 119

(a) Exercise by Eligible Offerees

To exercise the Subscription Rights, each Eligible Offeree must:

(i) return a duly completed Offering Form to the Subscription Agent so that the duly completed Offering Form is actually received by the Subscription Agent on or before the Rights Expiration Time; and

(ii) pay to the Rights Offering Escrow Account (as defined below), by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Purchase Price, so that payment of the Purchase Price is actually deposited into the Rights Offering Escrow Account on or before the Rights Expiration Time; provided, that the Backstop Parties (in their capacities as Eligible Offerees) shall be required to pay their respective Purchase Prices in accordance with the terms of the Backstop Agreement.

To exercise its Subscription Rights, any Eligible Offeree who holds through a Subscription Nominee must:

(i) return a duly completed Offering Form to its Subscription Nominee or otherwise instruct its Subscription Nominee as to its instructions for the Subscription Rights (in each case in sufficient time to allow such Subscription Nominee to deliver the Offering Form, along with any other required documentation, to the Subscription Agent, prior to the Rights Expiration Time); and

(ii) pay to its Subscription Nominee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other method as required by a Subscription Nominee), the Purchase Price along with instructions to its Subscription Nominee to pay such Purchase Price to the Rights Offering Escrow Account on such Eligible Offeree’s behalf, in each case, in accordance with procedures established by its Subscription Nominee, which, in turn, must comply with clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph.

For purposes of this Rights Offering, neither The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as the Senior Secured Notes Indenture Trustee, nor the Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, in its capacity as the Unsecured Notes Indenture Trustee, shall constitute a Subscription Nominee and neither shall have any responsibility with respect to sending any Rights Offering information or collecting any Offering Forms.

(b) Deemed Representations and Acknowledgements

Any Eligible Offeree that participates in the Rights Offering is deemed to have made the following agreements, representations and acknowledgements:

Such Eligible Offeree:

(i) recognizes and understands that the Subscription Rights are not transferable except in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section XIII.E(d) below, and that the benefits of the Subscription Rights are not separable from the claim or securities with respect to which the Subscription Rights have been granted;

(ii) represents and warrants that it will not accept a distribution of New Second Lien Convertible Notes if at such time, it does not hold an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim and, by accepting a distribution of New Second Lien Convertible Notes, such Eligible Offeree will be deemed to represent and warrant that it is the holder thereof; and

 120

(iii) represents and warrants that it is an Accredited Investor and otherwise an Eligible Offeree.

(c) Failure to Exercise Subscription Rights & Payment for Subscription Rights

Unexercised Subscription Rights will be relinquished on the Rights Expiration Time. If, on or prior to the Rights Expiration Time, the Subscription Agent for any reason does not receive from an Eligible Offeree or its Subscription Nominee on behalf of an Eligible Offeree (i) a duly completed Offering Form¹⁵ and (ii) immediately available funds by wire transfer in an amount equal to the total applicable Purchase Price for such Eligible Offeree’s Subscription Rights, such Eligible Offeree shall be deemed to have irrevocably relinquished and waived its Subscription Rights, subject to Section XIII.E(d) below; provided, that the Backstop Parties (in their capacities as Eligible Offerees) shall not be required to pay their respective Purchase Prices until the Effective Date.

Any attempt to exercise Subscription Rights after the Rights Expiration Time shall be null and void and Reorganized CHC shall not be obligated to honor any such purported exercise received by the Subscription Agent after the Rights Expiration Time regardless of when the documents relating thereto were sent.

(d) Transfer Restriction and Revocation

(i) Transferability Restrictions Prior to Exercise of Subscription Rights

The Subscription Rights are not detachable from the Senior Secured Notes Claims or the Unsecured Notes Claims.

The Subscription Rights shall not be transferable or assignable unless such holder transfers its corresponding Senior Secured Notes Claim or Unsecured Notes Claim, as applicable, in respect of which such Subscription Rights were issued, and only holders of the Subscription Rights as of the Rights Offering Record Date shall have the ability to exercise such Subscription Rights.

From the period commencing on the Rights Offering Record Date and unless and until a Subscription Right is exercised, any transfer or assignment of the corresponding Senior Secured Notes Claim or Unsecured Notes Claim shall void the Subscription Right.

(ii) Transferability Restrictions Following Exercise of Subscription Rights

After a Subscription Right has been exercised in accordance with these Rights Offering Procedures, the holder of the corresponding Senior Secured Notes Claim or Unsecured Notes Claim shall not transfer or assign such Senior Secured Note Claim or Unsecured Notes Claim unless such holder transfers or assigns with such Claim(s) the right to receive the proceeds of the exercise of the corresponding Subscription Rights in the Rights Offering, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws relating to the transfer of restricted securities, as evidenced by the delivery of a Transfer Notice (defined below) to the Subscription Agent or other procedures acceptable to Reorganized CHC and the Subscription Agent.

¹⁵ For the avoidance of doubt, the Backstop Parties (in their capacities as Eligible Offerees) shall not be required to submit an Offering Form.

 121

Both (i) the Subscription Rights (after they have been exercised) and (ii) the right to receive the proceeds of any Subscription Rights transferred pursuant to these Rights Offering Procedures, shall not be transferrable other than to an Accredited Investor or a “QIB.” A “QIB” means a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

A “Transfer Notice” is a notice delivered to the Subscription Agent notifying the Subscription Agent of the transfer of a Claim by the holder of the corresponding Subscription Rights, which indicates (i) the name of the transferor, the name of the transferee, the type of Claim being transferred and the principal amount of such Claims; and (ii) certifies that such transferee is a QIB or an Accredited Investor.

(iii) Revocation

Once an Eligible Offeree has properly exercised its Subscription Rights, such exercise will not be permitted to be revoked, unless the Effective Date has not occurred by the 31st day after the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Confirmation Order (unless such date is extended in accordance with the terms of the Plan Support Agreement or the Backstop Agreement). Thereafter an Eligible Offeree shall be permitted to revoke such exercise so long as the Effective Date has not occurred. An Eligible Offeree electing to revoke the exercise of its Subscription Rights must deliver written notice to the Subscription Agent (i) stating that the Eligible Offeree revokes its Subscription Rights; (ii) stating the type and number of Subscription Rights being revoked, and (iii) certifying that the Subscription Rights are being revoked are the only Subscription Rights exercised by the Eligible Offeree (the “Revocation Notice”). Upon receipt of a properly completed and timely returned Revocation Notice by an Eligible Offeree, the Subscription Agent shall use reasonable efforts to return as promptly as practicable the applicable Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, any revocation of Subscription Rights shall not constitute a revocation of any vote to accept or reject the Plan.

(e) Funds

The payments made to purchase New Second Lien Convertible Notes pursuant to the Rights Offering (the “Rights Offering Funds”) shall be deposited into an escrow account until the Effective Date (the “Rights Offering Escrow Account”) for the purpose of holding the money for administration of the Rights Offering until the Effective Date. The Rights Offering Funds shall not be used for any purpose other than to release the funds as directed by the Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent on the Effective Date or as otherwise set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures or in the Plan and, until released in accordance with the foregoing, the Rights Offering Funds will not be deemed part of the Debtors’ Estates. The Rights Offering Funds shall not be encumbered by any Lien, encumbrance, or cash collateral obligation. No interest will be paid to participating Eligible Offerees on account of any amounts paid in connection with their exercise of Subscription Rights under any circumstances.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, pursuant to the terms of the Backstop Agreement, each Backstop Party shall not be obligated to make payments in connection with the Rights Offering into the Rights Offering Escrow Account prior to twenty-four (24) hours before the proposed Effective Date.

(f) Participating Eligible Offeree Release

See Section 10.7 of the Plan for important information regarding releases.

F. Non-Eligible Offerees

(a) Conditions to Receipt of a Substitute Distribution

In order to be treated as a Non-Eligible Offeree and receive its Substitute Distribution under the Plan, a Non-Eligible Offeree must complete, or cause its Subscription Nominee to complete, an Offering Form certifying that it is not an Accredited Investor, and cause such Offering Form to be delivered to the Subscription Agent on or before the Rights Offering Expiration Time. The Offering Form for each Non-Eligible Offeree must also specify if such Non-Eligible Offeree is a holder of an Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim or an Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim to be eligible to receive the Substitute Distribution available to holders of each of these Claims, as described in the paragraphs below. If a Non-Eligible Offeree does not satisfy such requirements, such Non-Eligible Offeree shall be deemed to have forever and irrevocably relinquished and waived the right to receive the Substitute Distribution pursuant to the Plan and these Rights Offering Procedures. Prior to making a Substitute Distribution to a Non-Eligible Offeree, the Reorganized Debtors may require such additional information as they deem necessary to confirm that such Non-Eligible Offeree qualifies as such in accordance with these Rights Offering Procedures.

Holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim that are Non-Eligible Offerees (each, a “Secured Non-Eligible Offeree”) that satisfy the conditions set forth herein will receive, in lieu of the opportunity to participate in the Rights Offering, a Substitute Distribution in an amount up to 1% of the New Membership Interests (on a fully-diluted basis on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, as converted, but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), in the aggregate. Each Secured Non-Eligible Offeree that satisfies the conditions set forth herein shall receive a Substitute Distribution in an amount equal to 0.0021% of the 1% in New Membership Interests available to such Secured Non-Eligible Offerees (on a fully-diluted basis on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, as converted, but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), for each $1,000 in amount of its Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claim, subject to the limitations described herein. If the aggregate amount of Senior Secured Notes held by all Non-Eligible Offerees exceeds $47.5 million, such that the New Membership Interests that the Secured Non-Eligible Offerees would otherwise receive as a Substitute Distribution would exceed 1% of the New Membership Interests otherwise distributable to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims on a fully-diluted basis as aforesaid, the Substitute Distribution that each such Secured Non-Eligible Offeree receives will be reduced in proportion to the excess. If the New Membership Interests that all Secured Non-Eligible Offerees receive as a Substitute Distribution is less than 1% of the New Membership Interests otherwise distributable to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims on a fully-diluted basis as aforesaid, New Membership Interests in the amount of the difference will be distributed to the holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Pro Rata.

Holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims that are Non-Eligible Offerees (each, an “Unsecured Non-Eligible Offeree”) that satisfy the conditions set forth herein will receive, in lieu of the opportunity to participate in the Rights Offering, a Substitute Distribution in an amount up to 0.1% of the New Membership Interests (on a fully-diluted basis on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, as converted, but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), in the aggregate. Each Unsecured Non-Eligible Offeree that satisfies the conditions set forth herein shall receive a Substitute Distribution in an amount equal to 0.02105% of the 0.1% in New Membership Interests available to such Unsecured Non-Eligible Offerees (on a fully-diluted basis on account of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, as converted, but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), for each $1,000 in amount of its Allowed Unsecured Notes Claim, subject to the limitations described herein. If the aggregate amount of Unsecured Notes held by all Non-Eligible Offerees exceeds $4.75 million, such that the New Membership Interests that the Unsecured Non-Eligible Offerees would otherwise receive as a Substitute Distribution would exceed 0.1% of the New Membership Interests otherwise distributable to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims on a fully-diluted basis (but prior to dilution on account of the Management Incentive Plan), the Substitute Distribution that each such Unsecured Non-Eligible Offeree receives will be reduced in proportion to the excess. If the New Membership Interests that all Unsecured Non-Eligible Offerees receive as a Substitute Distribution is less than 0.1% of the New Membership Interests otherwise distributable to holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims on a fully-diluted basis as aforesaid, New Membership Interests in the amount of the difference will be distributed to the holders of Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims, Pro Rata.

 123

(b) Transfer Restrictions

Any transfer or assignment of a corresponding Senior Secured Notes Claim and/or Unsecured Notes Claim by a Non-Eligible Offeree shall void the right to receive a Substitute Distribution.

G. Miscellaneous

(a) Method of Delivery

Delivery shall be by mail and shall not be done electronically, and registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is encouraged and strongly recommended. The method of delivery of the Offering Form, the applicable Purchase Price, and any other required document is at each Eligible Offeree’s option and sole risk, and delivery will be considered made only when actually received by the Subscription Agent. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery prior to the Rights Expiration Time.

The risk of non-delivery of the Offering Form, the applicable Purchase Price into the Rights Offering Escrow Account, and any other required documents sent to the Subscription Agent in connection with the exercise of the Subscription Rights lies solely with the Eligible Offerees and none of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee, or the Backstop Parties (or any of their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or advisers, including the Subscription Agent) assumes the risk of non-delivery under any circumstance whatsoever.

(b) Issuance

The New Second Lien Convertible Notes to be issued pursuant to the Rights Offering are expected to be delivered to Eligible Offerees that have properly exercised their Subscription Rights on or as soon as practicable following the Effective Date. See Section XIII.B. The method of issuance of New Second Lien Convertible Notes to Eligible Offerees who properly exercise their Subscription Rights will depend on whether the Eligible Offeree is a QIB, an Accredited Investor that is an “Institutional Accredited Investor” or an Accredited Investor that is not an Institutional Accredited Investor or a QIB. An “Institutional Accredited Investor” means an Accredited Investor within the meaning of clauses (1), (2), (3), or (7) of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

The New Second Lien Convertible Notes issuable to Eligible Offerees who are QIBs or Institutional Accredited Investors will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of the DTC to the account of their respective Subscription Nominees in which their Senior Secured Notes or Unsecured Notes were held, to the extent practicable. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes issuable to Accredited Investors who are not Institutional Accredited Investors will be issued in the form of physical certificates in registered form on the books and records of Reorganized CHC or its designee, or in book entry form through DTC if so permitted.

 124

The New Membership Interests to be issued in the Substitute Distribution to Non-Eligible Offerees that have complied with the conditions of the Substitute Distribution hereunder are expected to be issued on or as soon as practicable following the Effective Date in book-entry form through the facilities of the DTC to the account of their respective Subscription Nominees in which their Unsecured Notes were held, to the extent practicable.

(c) Securities Law and Related Matters

The New Second Lien Convertible Notes issued to the Eligible Offerees participating in the Rights Offering and the New Membership Interests issuable upon the conversion thereof (together, the “New Securities”) will be offered in the Rights Offering pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and any applicable state securities laws, pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act, and may not be resold or otherwise transferred, without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, or any applicable federal and state securities laws. Therefore, to the extent a certificate is issued in conjunction with the issuance of the New Securities, such certificate may contain (or each book entry position shall be deemed to contain) a restricted securities legend in form and substance substantially similar to the following:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND ACCORDINGLY THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

There is not and there may not be a public market for the New Securities, and Reorganized CHC does not intend to seek any listing of the New Securities on any national securities exchange or other trading market of any type whatsoever. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the New Securities will ever develop or, if such a market does develop, that it will be maintained. Please refer to Sections X.D, X.E, and X.F above for more detailed information regarding risks associated with the Rights Offering.

The Substitute Distribution will be distributed pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code and may generally be resold or otherwise transferred without registration under the Securities Act or any other applicable federal and state securities laws.

The Rights Offering is being conducted in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor or any of its agents that participates, in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, in the offer, issuance, sale or purchase of a security, offered or sold under the plan of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or a newly organized successor to the debtor under the plan, is not liable, on account of participation, for violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the offer, issuance, sale or purchase of securities.

 125

(d) Disputes, Waivers, and Extensions

Any and all disputes concerning the timeliness, viability, form, and eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights, or the right to receive the Substitute Distribution, shall be addressed in good faith by Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent, in consultation with the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, the determinations of which shall be final and binding. Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent, in consultation with the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, may (i) waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected, within such times as it may determine in good faith to be appropriate or (ii) reject the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights for which an Offering Form and/or payment includes defects or irregularities. Offering Forms shall be deemed not to have been properly completed until all irregularities have been waived or cured. Reorganized CHC and CHC Parent reserve the right to give notice to any Eligible Offeree or Non-Eligible Offeree regarding any defect or irregularity in connection with any purported exercise of Subscription Rights or right to receive a Substitute Distribution, or the completion or delivery of any Offering Form, and Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent, in consultation with the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, may permit such defect or irregularity to be cured; it being understood, that none of the Debtors, Reorganized CHC, the Subscription Agent, or the Backstop Parties (or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors) shall incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

Reorganized CHC or CHC Parent, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court (if applicable) and the reasonable consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, may (i) extend the Rights Offering Expiration Time or adopt additional detailed procedures to more efficiently administer the distribution and exercise of the Subscription Rights and/or the distribution of the Substitute Distribution; and (ii) make such other changes to the Rights Offering, including changes that affect which parties constitute Eligible Offerees and/or Non-Eligible Offerees.

H. Rights Offering and Substitute Distribution Conditioned Upon Effectiveness of the Plan; Reservation of Rights; Return of Purchase Price

All exercises of Subscription Rights, and the distribution of the Substitute Distribution, are subject to and conditioned upon the effectiveness of the Plan. Reorganized CHC will accept a Binding Rights Election only upon the confirmation and effectiveness of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the Disclosure Statement or in the Plan to the contrary, Reorganized CHC and CHC Parent reserve the right, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court (if applicable), and the reasonable consent of the Creditors’ Committee and the Requisite Backstop Parties, to modify these Rights Offering Procedures or adopt additional detailed procedures if necessary in the business judgment of Reorganized CHC and CHC Parent to administer the distribution and exercise of the Subscription Rights more efficiently or to comply with applicable law.

In the event that (i) the Rights Offering is terminated, (ii) the Debtors revoke or withdraw the Plan, or (iii) the Effective Date has not occurred by the 31st day after the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Confirmation Order (unless such date is extended in accordance with the terms of the Plan Support Agreement and/or the Backstop Agreement, as applicable) or the conditions precedent to the occurrence of the Effective Date shall not have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the Plan, the Subscription Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days of such event, return all Rights Offering Funds held in the Rights Offering Escrow Account to each respective Eligible Offeree, without any interest, and, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, the Rights Offering shall automatically be terminated, and the Rights Offering Funds held in the Rights Offering Escrow Account will be refunded, without interest, to each respective Eligible Offeree as soon as reasonably practicable.

 126

C. Requirements for Confirmation of the Plan

1. Requirements of Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code

(a) General Requirements.

At the Confirmation Hearing, the Bankruptcy Court will determine whether the confirmation requirements specified in section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied including, without limitation, whether:

(i) the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code;

(ii) the Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code;

(iii) the Plan has been proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law;

(iv) any payment made or promised by the Debtors or by a person issuing securities or acquiring property under the Plan, 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, has been disclosed to the Bankruptcy Court, and any such payment made before confirmation of the Plan is reasonable, or if such payment is to be fixed after confirmation of the Plan, such payment is subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court as reasonable;

(v) the Debtors have disclosed the identity and affiliations of any individual proposed to serve, after confirmation of the Plan, as a director, manager, or officer of the Reorganized Debtors, an affiliate of the Debtors participating in the Plan with the Debtors, or a successor to the Debtors under the Plan, and whether the appointment to, or continuance in, such office of such individual is consistent with the holders of Claims and Interests and with public policy, and the Debtors have disclosed the identity of any insider who will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtors, and the nature of any compensation for such insider;

(vi) with respect to each Class of Claims or Interests, each holder of an Impaired Claim or Impaired Interest has either accepted the Plan or will receive or retain under the Plan, on account of such holder’s Claim or Interest, property of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, that is not less than the amount such holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated on the Effective Date of the Plan under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(vii) except to the extent the Plan meets the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, each Class of Claims either accepted the Plan or is not Impaired under the Plan;

(viii) except to the extent that the holder of a particular Claim has agreed to a different treatment of such Claim, the Plan provides that administrative expenses and priority Claims, other than Priority Tax Claims, will be paid in full on the Effective Date, and that Priority Tax Claims will receive either payment in full on the Effective Date or deferred cash payments over a period not exceeding five years after the Petition Date, of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, equal to the Allowed amount of such Claims;

 130

(ix) at least one Class of Impaired Claims has accepted the Plan, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider holding a Claim in such Class;

(x) confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtors or any successor to the Debtors under the Plan; and

(xi) all fees payable under section 1930 of title 28, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the Confirmation Hearing, have been paid or the Plan provides for the payment of all such fees on the Effective Date of the Plan.

The Debtors believe that the Plan meets all of the applicable requirements of 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) Best Interests Test

With respect to each impaired class of claims and equity interests, confirmation of a plan requires that each such holder either (i) accept the plan or (ii) receive or retain under the plan property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, that is not less than the value such holder would receive or retain if the debtors were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. This requirement is referred to as the “best interests test.”

This test requires a bankruptcy court to determine what the holders of allowed claims and allowed equity interests in each impaired class would receive from a liquidation of the debtor’s assets and properties in the context of liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. To determine if a plan is in the best interests of each impaired class, the value of the distributions from the proceeds of the liquidation of the debtor’s assets and properties (after subtracting the amounts attributable to the aforesaid claims) is then compared with the value offered to such classes of claims and equity interests under the plan.

The Debtors believe that under the Plan all holders of Impaired Claims and Interests will receive property with a value not less than the value such holder would receive in a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors’ belief is based primarily on (i) consideration of the effects that a chapter 7 liquidation would have on the proceeds available for distribution to holders of Impaired Claims and Interests and (ii) the Liquidation Analysis attached hereto as Exhibit G.

The Debtors believe that any liquidation analysis is speculative, as it is necessarily premised on assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Debtors. The Liquidation Analysis provided in Exhibit G is solely for the purpose of disclosing the effects of a hypothetical chapter 7 liquidation of the Debtors, subject to the assumptions set forth therein. There can be no assurance as to values that would actually be realized in a chapter 7 liquidation nor can there be any assurance that a bankruptcy court will accept the Debtors’ conclusions in determining whether section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.

(c) Feasibility

Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a debtor demonstrate that confirmation of a plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization. For purposes of determining whether the Plan meets this requirement, the Debtors have analyzed their ability to meet their obligations under the Plan. As part of this analysis, the Debtors have prepared the Financial Projections attached as Exhibit H hereto. Based upon the Financial Projections, the Debtors believe they will have sufficient resources to make all payments required pursuant to the Plan and that confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further reorganization. Section X hereof sets forth certain risk factors that could impact the feasibility of the Plan.

 131

2. Requirements of Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code

(a) Cramdown

A bankruptcy court may confirm a plan of reorganization over the rejection or deemed rejection of the plan of reorganization by a class of claims or equity interests. To obtain such confirmation, it must be demonstrated to the bankruptcy court that the plan “does not discriminate unfairly” and is “fair and equitable” with respect to such dissenting impaired classes. A plan does not discriminate unfairly if the legal rights of a dissenting class are treated in a manner consistent with the treatment of other classes whose legal rights are substantially similar to those of the dissenting class and if no class receives more than it is entitled to for its claims or equity interests. The Debtors believe that the Plan satisfies this requirement.

The Bankruptcy Code establishes different “fair and equitable” tests for secured claims, unsecured claims and equity interests, and a “cram down” of the plan, as follows:

· Secured Claims: either the plan must provide (i) that the holders of such claims retain the liens securing such claims, whether the property subject to such liens is retained by the debtor or transferred to another entity, to the extent of the allowed amount of such claims, and each holder of a claim receives deferred cash payments totaling at least the allowed amount of such claim, of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, of at least the value of such holder’s interest in the estate’s interest in such property; (ii) for the sale of any property that is subject to the liens securing such claims, free and clear of such liens, with such liens to attach to the proceeds of such sale; or (iii) for the realization by such holders of the indubitable equivalent of such claims.

· Unsecured Claims: either (i) each holder of an impaired unsecured claim receives or retains under the plan property of a value equal to the amount of its allowed claim or (ii) the holders of claims and interests that are junior to the claims of the dissenting class will not receive any property under the plan.

· Equity Interests. either (i) each equity interest holder will receive or retain under the plan property of a value equal to the greater of (x) the fixed liquidation preference or redemption price, if any, of such stock or (y) the value of the stock, or (ii) the holders of interests that are junior to the stock will not receive any property under the plan.

The Bankruptcy Code permits the bankruptcy court to confirm a chapter 11 plan of reorganization over the dissent of any class of claims or equity interests as long as the standards in section 1129(b) are met. This power to confirm a plan over dissenting classes – often referred to as “cram down” – is an important part of the reorganization process. It assures that no single group (or multiple groups) of claims or interests can block a restructuring that otherwise meets the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code and is in the interests of the other constituents in the case. The Debtors each reserve the right to seek confirmation of the Plan, notwithstanding a rejection of the Plan by any of the Voting Classes.

 132

XV.
Alternatives to Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan

The Debtors have evaluated several alternatives to the Plan. After studying these alternatives, the Debtors have concluded that the Plan is the best alternative and will maximize recoveries to parties in interest, assuming confirmation and consummation of the Plan. If the Plan is not confirmed and consummated, the alternatives to the Plan are (i) the preparation and presentation of an alternative plan of reorganization, (ii) a sale of some or all of the Debtors’ Assets pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) a liquidation under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

A. Alternative Plan of Reorganization

If the Plan is not confirmed, the Debtors (or if the Debtors’ exclusive period in which to file a plan of reorganization has expired, any other party in interest) could propose a different plan. Such a plan might involve either a reorganization and continuation of the Debtors’ business or an orderly liquidation of its Assets. The Debtors, however, submit that the Plan, as described herein, enables their creditors to realize the most value under the circumstances.

B. Sale Under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code

If the Plan is not confirmed, the Debtors could seek from the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and a hearing, authorization to sell their Assets under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4, and 5 may be entitled to credit bid on any property to which their security interest is attached, and to offset their Claims against the purchase price of the property. In addition, the security interests in the Debtors’ Assets held by holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4, and 5 would attach to the proceeds of any sale of the Debtors’ Assets. After these Claims are satisfied, the remaining funds could be used to pay holders of Claims in Classes 6, 7, and 8. Upon analysis and consideration of this alternative, the Debtors do not believe a sale of their Assets under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code would yield a higher recovery for holders of Claims than the Plan.

C. Liquidation Under Chapter 7 or Applicable Non-Bankruptcy Law

If no plan can be confirmed, the Chapter 11 Cases may be converted to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code in which a trustee would be elected or appointed to liquidate the Assets of the Debtors for distribution to their creditors in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. The effect a chapter 7 liquidation would have on the recovery of holders of allowed Claims and Interests is set forth in the Liquidation Analysis attached hereto as Exhibit G.

XVI.
Conclusion and Recommendation

The Debtors believe the Plan is in the best interests of all stakeholders and urge the holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 to vote in favor thereof.

A Claim or Interest shall be deemed classified in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of that Class, and shall be deemed classified in a different Class to the extent that any remainder of such Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of such different Class, provided, however, that any Claim classified in Class 7 shall not be classified in any other Class.

3.2        Grouping of Debtors for Convenience Only.

The Plan groups the Debtors together solely for the purpose of describing treatment of Claims and Interests under this Plan and confirmation of this Plan.

7.1          Disputed Claims Generally.

Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under the Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be entitled to object to Claims. Any objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before: (a) 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 may be fixed by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.2          Objections to Professional Fee Claims.

Any objections to Professional Fee Claims shall be served and filed (a) no later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the final applications for compensation or reimbursement by the applicable Professional Person or (b) such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.3          Estimation of Claims.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether the Debtors had previously objected to or otherwise disputed such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection. The Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent, unliquidated, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Reorganized Debtors may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim.

44

7.4          Claim Resolution Procedures Cumulative.

All of the objection, estimation, and resolution procedures in this Plan are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently settled, compromised, withdrawn, or resolved in accordance with this Plan by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

7.5           Resolution of Disputed Claims

On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the authority to litigate, compromise, settle, otherwise resolve or withdraw any objections to all Claims against the Debtors and to compromise and settle any such Disputed Claims without notice to or approval by the Bankruptcy Court or any other party; provided, however, that for so long as the Post-Effective Date Committee is in existence, the Post-Effective Date Committee shall have (i) consultation rights for the settlement of any General Unsecured Claims filed or asserted in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or more and (ii) reasonable consent rights with respect to any settlement of a General Unsecured Claim that is settled for an Allowed General Unsecured Claim in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). In the event the Post-Effective Date Committee does not consent to any such Claim settlement, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the right to seek approval of such Claim settlement by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019. Upon request, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall also provide the Post-Effective Date Committee with a spreadsheet of all General Unsecured Claims, which shall include the filed Claim amounts and any objections asserted thereto.

7.6           No Distributions Pending Allowance.

No payment or distribution provided under this Plan shall be made on account of a Disputed Claim unless and until (and only to the extent that) such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

7.7           Disputed Claims Reserve

(a)          There shall be withheld from the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims an amount of New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes that would be distributable to Disputed General Unsecured Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). There shall also be withheld Cash in an amount that would be distributable to any Disputed Convenience Claims had such Disputed Claims been Allowed on the Effective Date, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve). The Disbursing Agent shall hold in the Disputed Claims Reserve all dividends, payments, and other distributions made on account of, as well as any obligations arising from, property held in the Disputed Claims Reserve, to the extent that such property continues to be so held at the time such distributions are made or such obligations arise, and such dividends, payments, or other distributions shall be held for the benefit of (i) holders of Disputed General Unsecured Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, (ii) holders of New Unsecured Notes pending resolution of distributions to holders of Allowed Convenience Claims, (iii) holders of Disputed Convenience Claims against any of the Debtors whose Claims are subsequently Allowed, and (iv) other parties entitled thereto hereunder.

45

(b)           The Debtors intend to seek a determination by the Bankruptcy Court of the estimated amount (either on an individual or aggregate basis) of Disputed General Unsecured Claims and the Disputed Convenience Claims for purposes of determining the amount of the Disputed Claims Reserve attributable to such Disputed Claims. The New Membership Interests held in the Disputed Claims Reserve pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be deemed voted by the Disbursing Agent proportionally in the same manner as any outstanding New Membership Interests held by parties other than the Disbursing Agent are voted. The Disbursing Agent shall be responsible for payment, out of the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve, of any taxes imposed on the Disputed Claims Reserve or its assets. In the event, and to the extent, any Cash in the Disputed Claims Reserve is insufficient to pay the portion of any such taxes attributable to the taxable income arising from the assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve (including any income that may arise upon the distribution of the assets in the Disputed Claims Reserve), assets of the Disputed Claims Reserve may be sold to pay such taxes. To the extent that a Disputed General Unsecured Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. To the extent that a Disputed Convenience Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder thereof the distribution, if any, of Cash to which such holder is entitled hereunder out of the Disputed Claims Reserve. No interest shall be paid with respect to any Disputed Convenience Claim or any Disputed General Unsecured Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date.

(c)          In the event the New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes remaining in the Disputed Claims Reserve are insufficient to satisfy all the Disputed Claims that have become Allowed and are due to be satisfied with distributions from the Disputed Claims Reserve, such Disputed Claims shall be satisfied Pro Rata or ratably, as applicable, from the Disputed Claims Reserve consistent with the proportional recoveries provided by the Plan and as set forth in Exhibit C to the Disclosure Statement. After all New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes have been distributed from the Disputed Claims Reserve, no further distributions shall be made in respect of Disputed Claims. At such time as all Disputed Claims have been resolved, any remaining New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes in the Disputed Claims Reserve shall be shall be released from the Disputed Claims Reserve for distribution in accordance with Sections 4.7 and 5.8 hereof.

46

7.8            Distributions 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 this Plan. As soon as practicable after the date on which the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Disbursing Agent shall provide to the holder of such Claim the distribution (if any) to which such holder is entitled under this Plan as of the Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim unless required by the Bankruptcy Code.

48

8.3           Rejection

In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease hereunder results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, any Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a timely filed proof of Claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective Estates, properties or interests in property, unless a proof of Claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, no later than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the Confirmation Date or (ii) the effective date of the rejection of such executory contract or unexpired lease, as set forth on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases or on the Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases or order of the Bankruptcy Court. The Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the rejection of all the leases and contracts identified in the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Leases, and Schedule of Rejected Aircraft Leases.

8.4          Survival of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations.

(b)           Neither the exclusion nor the inclusion by the Debtors of any contract or lease on any exhibit, schedule, or other annex to this Plan or in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in this Plan, will constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is or is not an executory contract or unexpired lease or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or their respective affiliates have any liability thereunder.

(c)           Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, or in a previously entered order of the Bankruptcy Court, nothing shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, claims, Causes of Action, or other rights of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non-executory contract or unexpired or expired lease.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Exculpated Party shall have or incur, and each Exculpated Party is hereby released and exculpated from, any claim, obligation, suit, judgment, damage, demand, debt, right, Cause of Action, loss, and liability for any claim in connection with or arising out of the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases; the negotiation and pursuit of the Disclosure Statement, the Rights Offering, the Support Agreements, the transactions contemplated by Section 5.2 hereof, this Plan and all related agreements, instruments, and other documents (including the Plan Supplement and other Plan Documents), or the solicitation of votes for, or confirmation of, this Plan; the funding of this Plan; the occurrence of the Effective Date; the administration of this Plan or the property to be distributed under this Plan; the issuance of securities under or in connection with this Plan; or the transactions in furtherance of any of the foregoing; except to the extent arising out of or related to any act or omission of an Exculpated Party that is a criminal act or constitutes intentional fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence. This exculpation shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, all other releases, indemnities, exculpations and any other applicable law or rules protecting such Exculpated Parties from liability.

55

10.9        Injunction Related to Releases and Exculpation.

The Confirmation Order shall permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any Entity, whether directly, derivatively, or otherwise, of any Claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, losses, or liabilities released or exculpated pursuant to this Plan.

10.10     Subordinated Claims.

The allowance, classification, and treatment of all Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests and the respective distributions and treatments thereof under this Plan take into account and conform to the relative priority and rights of the Claims and Interest in each Class in connection with any contractual, legal, and equitable subordination rights relating thereto, whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, sections 510(a), 510(b), or 510(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise. Pursuant to section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors reserve the right to reclassify any Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest in accordance with any contractual, legal, or equitable subordination relating thereto.

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall be deemed to waive and release all Avoidance Actions against non-insider trade vendors and employees of Reorganized CHC as of the Effective Date.

Except as expressly provided in Section 10.11 of this Plan, and subject to Sections 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 of this Plan, nothing contained in this Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any rights, claims, Causes of Action, rights of setoff or recoupment, or other legal or equitable defenses that the Debtors had immediately before the Effective Date on behalf of the Estates or of themselves in accordance with any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable nonbankruptcy law. Subject to Sections 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 of this Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall have, retain, reserve, and be entitled to assert all such claims, Causes of Action, rights of setoff or recoupment, and other legal or equitable defenses as fully as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, and all of the Debtors’ legal and equitable rights in respect of any Unimpaired Claim may be asserted after the Effective Date to the same extent as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced.

56

10.13      Ipso Facto and Similar Provisions Ineffective.

Any term of any policy, contract, or other obligation applicable to a Debtor shall be void and of no further force or effect with respect to any Debtor to the extent that such policy, contract, or other obligation is conditioned on, creates an obligation of the Debtor as a result of, or gives rise to a right of any Entity based on any of the following: (a) the insolvency or financial condition of a Debtor; (b) the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases; (c) the confirmation or consummation of this Plan, including any change of control that will occur as a result of such consummation; (d) any change of control resulting from the issuance, or mandatory conversion of the New Second Lien Convertible Notes; (e) any change of control resulting from the Cayman Proceedings; or (f) the Restructuring.

The Reorganized Debtors will reimburse the Post-Effective Date Committee and its members (in such capacity) for reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses, subject to the Post-Effective Date Committee Fee Cap.

Subject to Section 5.19 of this Plan, if, prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order, any term or provision of this Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court, at the request of the Debtors, with the consent of the Requisite Plan Sponsors and the Creditors’ Committee, not to be unreasonably withheld, shall have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted. Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration, or interpretation by the Bankruptcy Court, the remainder of the terms and provisions of this Plan shall remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation. The Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of this Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with this Section, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

12.8       Governing Law.

Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other federal law is applicable or to the extent that a Plan Document provides otherwise, the rights, duties, and obligations arising under this Plan and the Plan Documents shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.

12.9        Immediate Binding Effect.

Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 3020(e), 6004(h), 7062, or otherwise, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the terms of this Plan and the Plan Documents shall be immediately effective and enforceable and deemed binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the holders of Claims and Interests, the Released Parties, the Exculpated Parties, and each of their respective successors and assigns.

12.11      Entire Agreement.

On the Effective Date, this Plan, the Plan Supplement, the Confirmation Order and the Cayman Proceedings shall supersede all previous and contemporaneous negotiations, promises, covenants, agreements, understandings, and representations on such subjects, all of which have become merged and integrated into this Plan; provided, however, the Plan Support Agreement and Backstop Agreement shall not be so superseded solely to the extent such agreements contain covenants or other obligations that apply to the period after the Effective Date.

In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by this Plan, unless otherwise set forth in this Plan or determined by the Bankruptcy Court, the provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9006 shall apply.

Estimated Recovery for Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at Secondary Recovery Debtors

C-1

Estimated Recovery for Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at Secondary Recovery Debtors

Secondary Recovery Debtor	Recovery for Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claims at Secondary Recovery Debtors1
6922767 Holding SARL	0.10%
Capital Aviation Services B.V.	0.66%

¹ Holders of Secondary General Unsecured Claims against a Debtor other than a Shared Recovery Debtor will not receive any additional recovery on account of such Secondary General Unsecured Claims, but will continue to receive their recovery on the corresponding Primary General Unsecured Claim.

² There are currently no Secondary General Unsecured Claims asserted against these Debtors. If any Secondary General Unsecured Claims are asserted and Allowed, the allocation of the Secondary General Unsecured Claims Distribution among the other Debtors on this Exhibit C will decrease ratably according to the waterfall described in Section I.8 of this Disclosure Statement. In no event would the recovery on account of an Allowed Secondary General Unsecured Claim fall below the amount that is required to satisfy the standards for confirmation under the Bankruptcy Code.

C-2

Exhibit D

Restructuring Transactions

D-1

Restructuring Transactions

In contemplation of the Plan,¹ prior to the mailing of the Disclosure Statement, (A) Reorganized CHC [was formed and registered]² as a Cayman Islands limited liability company (which has elected, or shall elect, to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes)and entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”) with CHC Parent, pursuant to which Reorganized CHC shall, on the Effective Date, acquire all of the assets of CHC Parent (including all the stock of its sole direct subsidiary on a restructured basis) in exchange for (i) New Unsecured Notes and New Membership Interests and (ii) the agreement of Reorganized CHC to conduct the Rights Offering contemplated by the Plan pursuant to which Reorganized CHC will offer to sell to eligible holders of Senior Secured Notes Claims and Unsecured Notes Claims the New Second Lien Convertible Notes (these Subscription Rights, collectively with the New Unsecured Notes and New Membership Interests, the “Plan Consideration”) and (B) CHC Parent and each of the respective Debtors, as applicable, entered into one or more assumption agreements (collectively, the “Assumption Agreement”), pursuant to which CHC Parent shall, after the Confirmation Date and at least one day prior to the Effective Date, assume primary responsibility for certain Claims against such Debtors, as described in the Restructuring Transactions below. The exercise of the Subscription Rights shall be governed by the Rights Offering Procedures set forth in the Disclosure Statement Order, subscription forms and related documents.

In furtherance of the foregoing and the implementation of the Plan, the following transactions shall occur in the following order on or prior to the Effective Date (as indicated below):

(1) Prior to the Effective Date, pursuant to the Assumption Agreement, CHC Parent shall assume (i) from CHC Helicopter S.A. (“CHC SA”), primary responsibility for all of CHC SA’s obligations under and with respect to the Senior Secured Notes Claims and Unsecured Notes Claims and (ii) from each of the Debtors, primary responsibility for any General Unsecured Claims against such Debtor that are aircraft lease rejection claims (including by reason of a guarantee of an aircraft lease rejection claim) (collectively, all assumed claims under this paragraph, the “Assumed Claims”) in exchange for a new intercompany note (a “New Intercompany Note”) from the respective Debtor to CHC Parent with terms to be agreed upon by them prior to the Effective Date (which note may be, in whole or in part, immediately contributed by CHC Parent indirectly to the capital of the respective Debtor in cancellation thereof), the issuance of new equity by the respective Debtor to CHC Parent (which new equity shall be immediately contributed by CHC Parent indirectly to the capital of the parent of the respective Debtor, or, in lieu thereof, the new equity may be issued directly to the parent of the respective Debtor), and/or an indirect capital contribution from CHC Parent to the respective Debtor. For the avoidance of doubt, such assumption by CHC Parent (a) is not an assumption of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (b) shall not prejudice or enhance the distributions to which the Assumed Claims are otherwise entitled under Plan but, rather, shall make CHC Parent (rather than the Debtor from whom the Claim was assumed) primarily responsible for such distributions.³ In the event, and to the extent, that any desired contribution of any New Intercompany Note or new equity received by CHC Parent in consideration for Assumed Claims is not completed on or prior to the Effective Date, Reorganized CHC shall contribute (or cause to be contributed) such note or new equity directly or indirectly to the capital of the respective reorganized Debtors.

¹ Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

²[NTD: Will be formed and registered prior to the mailing of the Disclosure Statement.] 

³ Accordingly, the rights under the Plan that each holder of an Assumed Claim has against the applicable Debtor from whom the Claim was assumed, and the distributions to such holder under the Plan on account of such Claim (other than changing the person making such distribution), are not being impacted by these Restructuring Transactions.

D-2

(2) In accordance with, and subject to the terms of, the treatment sections of the Plan, the following transactions shall occur concurrently on the Effective Date:

(i) On behalf of, and at the direction of CHC Parent pursuant hereto, Reorganized CHC shall issue New Membership Interests and New Unsecured Notes (in addition to the Subscription Rights previously provided) to holders of Allowed Senior Secured Notes Claims, Allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and Allowed General Unsecured Claims, as applicable pursuant to the terms of the Plan, in full and final satisfaction and discharge of such Claims.

(ii) To the extent that there are Disputed Claims, the Plan Consideration that would otherwise be distributable in respect of such Claims, if such Claims had been Allowed Claims as of the Effective Date, shall be transferred to the Disputed Claims Reserve and administered in accordance with Article VII of the Plan.

(iii) As to any General Unsecured Claims satisfied and discharged by CHC Parent pursuant to paragraph 2(i) above that were not Assumed Claims, CHC Parent shall be treated as having acquired and immediately contributed such Claims indirectly to the capital of CHC SA, and, in turn, CHC SA shall be treated as immediately transferring such General Unsecured Claims to the respective subsidiary Debtors. Such later transfers shall take the form of, in whole or in part, contributions to capital (directly or indirectly), transfers in satisfaction of preexisting intercompany debt, transfers in exchange for new intercompany debt (which new intercompany debt may be, in whole or in part, immediately contributed indirectly to the capital of the respective Debtor in cancellation thereof), or transfers for the issuance of new equity (which new equity shall be immediately contributed indirectly to the capital of the parent of the respective Debtor, or in lieu thereof, the new equity may be issued directly to the parent of the respective Debtor).

(3) On the Effective Date, pursuant to the Rights Offering, Reorganized CHC shall receive the Cash exercise price and shall issue the New Second Lien Convertible Notes.

(4) On the Effective Date, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the APA, and the Cayman Proceeding, CHC Parent shall transfer to Reorganized CHC (or, at the direction of Reorganized CHC, to a newly formed, direct, wholly-owned Cayman Islands organized subsidiary of Reorganized CHC) all of its assets (including all the stock of its sole direct subsidiary on a restructured basis and all New Intercompany Notes held by CHC Parent at the time of transfer).

CHC PARTIES’ REPRESENTATIONS

The representations and warranties of the CHC Parties will be limited to the following representations and warranties to be made on the Credit Agreement Amendment Effective Date by the Borrower and, but only so long as CHC Group Ltd. or its successor will be required to be the sole guarantor in accordance with the provisions set forth under “Other Terms” in Exhibit A hereto, by such guarantor, in each case, as to itself:

1.          Status. It is a corporation, company or other entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, except (other than with respect to the Borrower), to the extent that the failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

2.          Non-Conflict. The execution and delivery by it of the Operative Documents Amendments to which it is a party, the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated in such Operative Documents Amendments and compliance with the terms and provisions of such Operative Documents Amendments are within its corporate power, do not and will not result in a violation of its constitutional documents as currently in effect, and do not and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any term or provision of, or constitute a default under any material indenture, mortgage, or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its material properties is or may be bound; provided that it makes no representation or warranty in this paragraph with respect to the Existing Operative Documents.

3.          Legal Validity. Each Operative Documents Amendment to which it is a party has been duly authorised by all necessary corporate action on its part and by the Bankruptcy Court and executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable against it in accordance with their terms, except as their enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, liquidation, examinership, insolvency, reorganisation and other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and general principles of equity (regardless of whether such proceeding is considered a proceeding in equity or at law) and except, in the case of the Credit Agreement Amendment, as limited by applicable laws that may affect the remedies provided in the Credit Agreement Amendment but such limitations would not make such remedies inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits intended to be provided thereby.

4.          Consents. It has received every material consent, approval or authorisation of, and has given every material notice to, the governmental authority in its country of incorporation having jurisdiction with respect to the execution, delivery or performance of the Operative Documents Amendments to which it is a party including all monetary and other obligations under such Operative Documents Amendments) that is required for it to execute and deliver the Operative Documents Amendments to which it is a party, and to perform the transactions contemplated by such Operative Documents Amendments, and each such consent, approval or authorisation is valid and is in full force and effect and has not been revoked; provided that it makes no representation or warranty in this paragraph as to (a) any consent, approval, authorisation, notice or any other action that may be required under or by any of the Existing Operative Documents, including any filings, registrations and recordations as may be necessary or advisable with respect thereto under any applicable laws, (b) the order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the Term Sheet and the transaction contemplated thereunder, which has been obtained and is in full force and effect, or (c) any periodic renewals of the registration of any Restructured Aircraft with the aircraft registry it is currently registered on, the registration of the “international interests” that may be created under the Operative Documents Amendments pursuant to the Cape Town Treaty or any other consent, approval, authorisation, notice or any other action that may be required or allowed to be obtained, given, made or performed after the Credit Agreement Amendment Effective Date.

Liquidation Analysis

Liquidation Analysis

1. Introduction

CHC Group Ltd. (“CHC Parent”) and certain of its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) are soliciting votes with respect to the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of CHC Group Ltd. and its Affiliated Debtors (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”) as set forth in the disclosure statement for the Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the “Disclosure Statement”).¹

Often called the “best interests” test, section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the Bankruptcy Court find, as a condition to confirmation of the Plan, that each holder of a Claim or Interest in each Impaired Class: (i) has accepted the Plan; or (ii) will receive or retain under the Plan property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount that such Person would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In order to make these findings, the Bankruptcy Court must: (1) estimate the cash proceeds (the “Liquidation Proceeds”) that a chapter 7 trustee (the “Trustee”) would generate if each Debtor’s chapter 11 case were converted to a chapter 7 case on the Effective Date and the Assets of such Debtor’s estate were liquidated; (2) determine the distribution (the “Liquidation Distribution”) that each holder of a Claim or Interest would receive from the Liquidation Proceeds under the priority scheme dictated in chapter 7; and (3) compare each holder’s Liquidation Distribution to the distribution under the Plan that such holder would receive if the Plan were confirmed and consummated. Accordingly, asset values discussed herein may be different than amounts referred to in the Plan. The analysis (the “Liquidation Analysis”) is based upon certain assumptions discussed herein and in the Disclosure Statement.

THE DEBTORS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY OF THE ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS CONTAINED HEREIN, OR A TRUSTEE’S ABILITY TO ACHIEVE FORECASTED RESULTS. IN THE EVENT THAT THESE CHAPTER 11 CASES ARE CONVERTED TO A CHAPTER 7 LIQUIDATION, ACTUAL RESULTS COULD VARY MATERIALLY FROM THE ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS SET FORTH IN THIS LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS.

2. Basis of Presentation

The Liquidation Analysis has been prepared assuming that the Debtors’ chapter 7 liquidation would commence on or about February 3, 2017 (the “Liquidation Date”). Due to the global nature of the business, complex organizational structure and outstanding liabilities at different corporate entities, this Liquidation Analysis was prepared on a legal entity basis.

The Liquidation Analysis represents an estimate of recovery values and percentages based upon a hypothetical liquidation if a Trustee were appointed by the Bankruptcy Court to convert Assets into cash. The determination of the hypothetical proceeds from the liquidation of Assets is a highly uncertain process involving the extensive use of estimates and assumptions which, although considered reasonable by management and their advisors, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Debtors and their management. The Liquidation Analysis should be read in conjunction with the assumptions, qualifications, and explanations set forth in the Disclosure Statement and the Plan in their entirety as well as the notes and assumptions set forth below.

¹ All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Disclosure Statement, to which this exhibit is attached as Exhibit G.

G-2

The Liquidation Analysis assumes operations would cease on the Liquidation Date and that a liquidation would start immediately thereafter. It is assumed that CHC would file a Chapter 7 proceeding and a Trustee would be appointed to the case. This analysis assumes all of the Debtors and their non-debtor affiliates are included in the chapter 7 case, except that certain entities are excluded from the analysis due to the de minimis value that resides at these entities.

All owned Assets including equipment, inventory and aircraft would be sold over a 60 day period. This liquidation process is projected utilizing CHC’s most recent financials, weekly cash flow projections and third party analysis and reports.

The cessation of business in a liquidation is likely to trigger certain Claims that otherwise would not exist under a chapter 11 reorganization plan. For purposes of this analysis, given the global nature of the business and local and jurisdictional laws, we have assumed that local obligations, including (among other things) severance, pension and other employee obligations, will be entitled to priority in payment over secured and unsecured Claims.

The Liquidation Analysis also does not include estimates for the tax consequences that may be triggered upon the liquidation and sale events of Assets in the manner described above. Such tax consequences may be material.

The Liquidation Analysis does not include recoveries resulting from any potential preference, fraudulent transfer, or other litigation or avoidance actions.

An administrative expense forecast was created to estimate the cost of executing the liquidation over a 60-day period.

3. Liquidation Process

For purposes of this analysis, the Debtors’ hypothetical liquidation would be conducted in a chapter 7 environment with the Trustee managing the bankruptcy estate of each Debtor to maximize recovery in an expedited process. The Trustee’s initial step would be to develop a liquidation plan to generate proceeds from the sale of entity specific Assets for distribution to creditors. The major components of the liquidation are as follows:

· generation of cash proceeds from Asset sales;

· satisfying costs related to the liquidation process, such as personnel retention costs, liquidation costs and Trustee, professional and other administrative fees;

· satisfying of local obligations, including severance, pension and other employee obligations;

· transfer of value between entities through intercompany obligations and equity pledges; and

· distribution of net proceeds generated from Asset sales to the holders of Claims and Interests in accordance with the priority scheme under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code

G-3

4. Distribution of Net Proceeds to Claimants

Any available net proceeds would be allocated to the applicable holders of Claims and Interests in strict priority in accordance with section 726 of the Bankruptcy Code:

· Secured Claims: Claims that are paid with the proceeds of Collateral to the extent secured by property of the Estates, including Claims arising under the Debtors’ secured credit facilities;²

· Administrative & Priority Claims: includes Claims for postpetition accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued and unpaid professional fees, Claims arising under section 503(b)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, and certain unsecured Claims entitled to priority under section 507 of the Bankruptcy Code;

· Unsecured Claims: includes non-secured, non-priority debt, including trade payables, and various other unsecured liabilities; and

· Equity: to the extent any available net proceeds remain available for distribution after satisfaction in full of the foregoing classes of Claims, any equity security in a Debtor as defined in section 101(16) of the Bankruptcy Code, including all common stock or units, preferred stock or units or other instruments evidencing an ownership interest in any of the Debtors.

5. Conclusion

The Debtors have determined, as summarized in the following analysis, upon the Effective Date, the Plan will provide all holders of Claims and Interests with a recovery (if any) that is not less than what they would otherwise receive pursuant to a liquidation of the Debtors under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and as such believe that the Plan satisfies the requirement of 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

² This liquidation analysis is based on certain assumptions regarding the validity and perfection of the liens securing the Debtors’ secured debt facilities, including assumptions arising out of agreements memorialized in the Support Agreements filed at Docket No. 956 and the ABL Settlement Agreement at Docket No. 1071.  Notwithstanding those assumptions, and in particular to the extent the Support Agreements are not approved by the Bankruptcy Court, or are approved but subsequently terminated, this liquidation analysis should not be read to imply that any party is admitting, waiving any rights or arguments in respect of, or making any concessions in respect of, the validity or perfection of such liens.

Specific Notes to the Liquidation Analysis

Proceeds Available to Creditors

· Cash Balance as of Liquidation Date before liquidation: Opening Cash at the commencement of the liquidation is based upon the most recent cash forecast and is forecasted on an entity by entity basis.³

· Accounts Receivable Collections: For the 60 day period liquidation period, collections by entity are forecasted at 15% of the normal course weekly cash flow forecast. Most collections would occur in the first few weeks of a liquidation and are limited as CHC would stop providing services to customers. Moreover, some of CHC's customers pay for services in advance.

· Owned Aircraft By Entity: Owned aircraft are assumed to be sold at forced liquidation value or parts value. In total, 51 aircraft are assumed to be sold for approximately 53% of the Ascend and HeliValue appraisals. The 13 aircraft securing the Asset Based Loan (“ABL”) are assumed to be valued at forced liquidation value, with EC225 aircraft valued at a part-out rate.

· Inventory, Rotables & Major Spares, Facilities, and Equipment & Land: Inventory, rotables, major spares, facilities, equipment, and land are assumed to be sold using a liquidator, which would result in minimal recovery of these Assets (20%-60% recovery estimate), net of any fees. The assumed values are based on the Debtors’ financials as of July 31, 2016 and the recovery on inventory, rotables and major spares is based on a third party valuation report.

Liquidation Costs

· The liquidation plan was developed using the most recent Cash balances.

o Use of Cash in the liquidation is assumed using the normal course weekly disbursements and adjusted for cessation of operations and the estimated necessary costs incurred in a liquidation.

o The largest cost in the liquidation would be personnel. Personnel would be required to, among other things, ensure that aircraft are secure, locate Assets, and assist in the liquidation of the Debtor. This analysis assumes 30%-45% of normal course payroll and 30%-45% of normal course benefits would continue.

o Other material Cash items include (i) OEM expenditures (but only expenditures for parts necessary to maximize value), (ii) freight and customs costs for shipping Assets (and parts as needed), (iii) payments to taxing authorities (to be paid in the normal course as to not incur Liens on Assets), (iv) insurance payments (to insure high value Assets are insured and director and officer liability coverage is maintained), (v) travel costs (to move employees around bases during the liquidation), (vi) fuel costs (related to any needed movement of aircraft), and (vii) IT costs (to keep computer systems at a minimum level of operation to effectuate the liquidation).

³ This liquidation analysis does not segregate encumbered and unencumbered cash at each entity for purposes of applying the cash against liquidation costs or for any other purpose.

G-5

· Professional fees would be paid for February 2017 and March 2017 for the current set of professionals retained in the Chapter 11 Cases. However, the analysis assumes that no transaction fees are to be paid.

· Ordinary course professionals are assumed to be retained by the Trustee for financial and accounting support during the liquidation at 75% of the current monthly run rate.

· Section 326 of the Bankruptcy Code provides for Trustee fees in the amount of 3% of liquidation proceeds in excess of $1 million. The Liquidation Analysis, therefore, assumes Trustee fees are approximately 3% of the Liquidation Proceeds.

· Approximately 2% of existing Accounts Payable and Accrued is assumed to be the settlement of float as checks clear in the first week of filing plus an additional 1% of AP/Accrued for other expenses related to the liquidation.

Local Liabilities

· Due to the global nature of CHC’s operations and the various bankruptcy laws and local laws that may be implicated by the liquidation, it is assumed that foreign jurisdictions would require payment of employee liabilities (e.g., WARN type liabilities), pension liabilities (but excluding Canada which are SERP liabilities that are backed by letters of credit), severance liabilities, and maintenance obligations before Cash would be allowed to be distributed to secured and unsecured creditors.

Intercompany and Equity Pledges

· Once all administrative expenses (i.e. the Liquidation Costs and Local Liabilities described above) are satisfied, the remaining proceeds are assumed to be transferred through intercompany transactions (Non-Debtors would satisfy intercompany transactions to Debtors and Non-Debtors, to the extent value is available).

· Any remaining value would then be subject to transfer (equity pledges) to respective parent entities. Certain equity pledges are unpledged and would not benefit secured creditors.

Proceeds Available for Deficiency and Unsecured Claims

· The value available for distribution on account of deficiency Claims and unsecured Claims is assumed to be that of the unperfected aircraft, as well as the unpledged equity transfers, and the remaining value at the non-Debtors.

Claims

· Secured Claims (i.e. the Revolving Credit Agreement Claims, the ABL Credit Agreement Claims, and the Senior Secured Notes Claims) are projected to total approximately $1.58 billion including pre-petition accrued and unpaid interest and fees.

· Lease rejection Claims are projected to total $1.37 billion (assuming no mitigation), which is the estimated NPV of the lease payments, return conditions, and other costs.

· The total Claims pool, including deficiency Claims, capital lease obligations, lease rejections Claims, AP/Accrued, Unsecured Notes Claims, and unsatisfied Local Liabilities totals to approximately $3.08 billion.

G-6

· The proposed Support Agreements filed at Docket No. 956 and ABL Settlement Agreement at Docket No. 1071 provide for certain fees and expenses which, if approved, will be administrative expenses of the Debtors’ estates. This analysis does not account for such expenses.

Financial Projections

H-1

Financial Projections

· The prospective financial information included in this Disclosure Statement has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, the Debtors’ management team (“Management”). No independent auditors have examined, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying prospective financial information.

· The Debtors do not, as a matter of course, publish their business plans, budgets or strategies or disclose projections or forecasts of their anticipated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Debtors do not anticipate that they will, and disclaim any obligation to, furnish updated business plans, budgets, strategies, projections or forecasts of their anticipated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows to holders of Claims or Interests prior to the Effective Date or to include such information in documents required to be filed with the SEC or otherwise make such information publicly available.

· The assumptions, projections and other financial information contained in this section contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

· The Debtors believe that the Plan meets the feasibility requirements set forth in section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code, as confirmation is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the Debtors or any successor under the Plan. In connection with the planning and development of a plan of reorganization and for the purposes of determining whether such plan would satisfy this feasibility standard, the Debtors analyzed their ability to satisfy their financial obligations while maintaining sufficient liquidity and capital resources.

· Management, with the assistance of their advisors, has prepared financial projections (the “Financial Projections”) for the fiscal years 2017 through 2019 (the “Projection Period”). The Financial Projections were prepared by Management, with the assistance of their advisors, and are based on a number of assumptions made by Management and their advisors with respect to the potential future performance of the Reorganized Debtors’ operations assuming the consummation of the Plan. The Financial Projections are presented on a consolidated basis, including estimates of operating results for Debtor entities and non-Debtor entities combined. The Financial Projections will assist each holder of a Claim or Interest in the Debtors to determine whether to vote to accept or to reject the Plan.

· In general, as illustrated by the Financial Projections, the reduction of debt on the Debtors’ balance sheet will substantially reduce future interest expense and improve future cash flows. Based on the Financial Projections, the Debtors should have sufficient cash flow to pay and service their post-restructuring debt obligations, including the Exit Revolving Credit Facility,¹ the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, the PK Financing Facility (if applicable), the New Second Lien Convertible Notes, and the New Unsecured Notes, and to operate their business. The Debtors believe that the Confirmation Date and Effective Date are not likely to be followed by either the liquidation or the further reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that the Plan satisfies the feasibility requirements of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

¹ Any assumptions regarding the Exit Revolving Credit Facility are solely for illustrative purposes only and nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver of any rights with respect to, or any concession with respect to the potential terms of, any Exit Revolving Credit Facility.

· THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS WERE NOT PREPARED WITH A VIEW TOWARD COMPLIANCE WITH PUBLISHED GUIDELINES OF THE SEC OR GUIDELINES ESTABLISHED BY THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS FOR PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF PROSPECTIVE FINANCIAL INFORMATION. THE PROJECTED BALANCE SHEETS DO NOT REFLECT THE IMPACT OF FRESH START ACCOUNTING, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A MATERIAL CHANGE TO ANY OF THE PROJECTED VALUES.

· ALTHOUGH MANAGEMENT HAS PREPARED THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS IN GOOD FAITH AND BELIEVES THE ASSUMPTIONS TO BE REASONABLE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE DEBTORS AND THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS CAN PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE THAT SUCH ASSUMPTIONS WILL BE REALIZED. AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION X OF THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT, A VARIETY OF RISK FACTORS COULD AFFECT THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS’ FINANCIAL RESULTS AND MUST BE CONSIDERED. ACCORDINGLY, THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS SHOULD BE REVIEWED IN CONJUNCTION WITH A REVIEW OF THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN SECTION X OF THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND THE ASSUMPTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, INCLUDING ALL RELEVANT QUALIFICATIONS AND FOOTNOTES, AND ANY RESULTING CHANGES TO THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS COULD BE MATERIAL.

1. General Assumptions

· Overview: CHC Group Ltd., along with its Debtor and non-Debtor subsidiaries, provides services through two segments: Helicopter Services and Heli-One. The Helicopter Services segment consists of flying operations in the Eastern North Sea, the Western North Sea, the Americas and the Asia Pacific Region. Flying operations consist primarily of transportation for the offshore oil-and-gas industry, search-and-rescue services, and emergency medical services. The Heli-One segment includes helicopter maintenance, repair and overhaul (“MRO”) facilities in Norway, Poland, Canada and the United States, providing services for CHC’s fleet and for external customers based primarily in Europe, Asia and North America.

· Presentation: The Financial Projections are presented on a consolidated basis, including estimates of operating results for Debtor and non-Debtor entities, combined.

· Accounting Policies: The Financial Projections may not reflect all of the adjustments necessary to implement fresh-start accounting pursuant to Accounting Standards Certification 852-10, as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

· Methodology: Key personnel from all of the Debtors’ operating regions and various functions provided input in the development of the Financial Projections. In developing the Financial Projections, the Debtors reviewed their fleet’s current contracted status and made assessments of whether or not these contracts were likely to be renewed or if volume or price changes were likely. Fleet composition projections were developed based on the projected revenue activity levels as well as the status of negotiations with lessors. The Debtors hired experts to evaluate the near and longer term outlook on oil and gas production, pricing, and off-shore rig activity levels. In addition, the MRO activity level of Heli-One was evaluated based on projected global helicopter activity and the potential for market share gains. The Financial Projections were developed on a region-by-region basis and incorporate multiple sources of information. While the Debtors remain confident in the long term fundamentals of the offshore market the Financial Projections reflect a prolonged downturn in the oil and gas market as the timing of an industry recovery remains uncertain.

· Plan Consummation: The Financial Projections assume that the Plan will be confirmed or consummated on or about January 31, 2017.

2. Assumptions With Respect to the Projected Income Statement

Productive Aircraft: A contract-by-contract review was completed to determine the productive aircraft that the Debtor would operate. The number of productive aircraft is driven by the assumption of contract renewals, losses, changes in activity levels as well as future speculative contracts.

Revenues: Revenue in the Financial Projections is generated on a per aircraft basis based on the productive aircraft servicing each contract. In addition, the Debtors generate revenue through their MRO activities.

Direct Costs: Direct Costs are projected based on historical operating costs in each region (adjusted for cost reduction efforts). These costs include crew, base, maintenance, insurance, base rechargeables, and other.

General and Administrative: General and Administrative costs (“G&A”) are primarily comprised of labor costs and other expenses associated with the Debtors’ corporate overhead. The amount of G&A is based on historical G&A costs, adjusted for cost reduction efforts. These costs include segment support costs and global support costs.

Lease Expense: Lease Expense is forecasted based on the projected amount and composition of aircraft necessary to support the Financial Projections. The expense is based on certain renegotiated and contract rates.

Equity Earnings: Equity Earnings reflects the projected earnings from equity accounted investees.

Depreciation & Amortization: Depreciation and Amortization reflects the anticipated depreciation and amortization of the Debtors’ fleet, based on current net book values.

Other: Other includes projected restructuring expenses associated with the Chapter 11 Cases including, but not limited to, professional fees, fleet return costs and other items. In addition, Other includes projected asset impairments, stock-based compensation, and one-time cost items including severance.

Net Interest & Other Financing: Interest expense is forecasted based on the capital structure at emergence and other banking fees.

Income Tax Expense: Income Tax Expense is projected based on the jurisdictional mix of the Debtors’ projected revenue.

3. Assumptions with Respect to the Projected Balance Sheet and Projected Statement of Cash Flows

Pro Forma Adjustments Related to Emergence: The FY2017 balance sheet reflects certain adjustments related to the Debtors’ emergence from chapter 11 in accordance with the terms of the Plan. These adjustments primarily relate to the paydown of the Revolving Credit Facility, if applicable, and the extinguishment of the Debtors’ Senior Secured Notes and Unsecured Notes. The New Second Lien Convertible Notes and New Unsecured Notes, as contemplated in the Plan, are reflected on the balance sheet. In addition, the Financial Projections reflect assumptions with respect to the terms of the Exit Revolving Credit Facility, the Amended and Restated ABL Facility, as well as the PK Financing Facility, as the terms of those facilities have not been finalized, and remain subject to ongoing discussion and negotiation among the parties.

H-4

Cash Pension Expense: Cash Pension Expense includes projected contributions for the UK and Norway pension plans.

Working Capital: Working Capital assumptions are based on the historical days sales outstanding and historical days payable as well as on the historical levels of prepaid and other current Assets and current liabilities. FY2017 reflects the loss of the advancements on accounts receivable from an accounts receivable securitization counterparty as well as draws on Letters of Credit.

Cash Restructuring Costs: Cash Restructuring Costs include severance related, lease return costs, and restructuring professional fees.

Capital Expenditures: Projections for capital expenditures were prepared with consideration of the Debtors’ fixed Assets including bases, aircraft, and aircraft parts. The Financial Projections reflect the return of certain aircraft financed under the ABL Credit Facility as well as the purchase of new aircraft financed through the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility and, if applicable, the PK Financing Facility (collectively, the “New Asset Backed Loans”). The return and financing of aircraft are assumed to occur upon emergence.

Other Disposals: Other Disposals consists of parts sales in the normal course of business. No aircraft are projected to be sold due to the uncertainty in the market for used aircraft.

Borrowing / (Repayment) of Revolving Credit Facility: Reflects the paydown of the Revolving Credit Facility at emergence and subsequent borrowings to maintain $150 million of cash on the balance sheet.

Borrowing / (Repayment) of New Asset Backed Loans: Reflects the adjustment of the existing ABL Credit Facility and borrowings and subsequent repayments on the New Asset Backed Loans.

Cash to Balance Sheet – Investment: Reflects the cash after closing expenses that will benefit the Debtors.

Capital Lease Repayment / Buyout: Reflects the projected payments on capital leases and aircraft buyouts. The projections include capital lease payments related to the current Boundary Bay Facility lease, however, the projections also forecast savings related to renegotiating or relocating the Boundary Bay Facility.
