Each of the Bankruptcy Committees shall propose four directors and the Debtor Industries shall propose four directors. All of the selected directors shall be reasonably acceptable to the Bankruptcy Committees and the Debtor Industries.

(b) Terms. Reorganized Industries board members shall serve for an initial two year term commencing on the Effective Date as determined by the Debtors. If agreed upon by the Debtors and the Bankruptcy Committees, the terms for board members may be staggered.

The property of each Estate, together with any property of each Debtor that is not property of its Estate and that is not specifically disposed of pursuant to the Plan, shall revest in the applicable Reorganized Debtor on the Effective Date, subject to the Restructuring Transactions.

Except as otherwise provided in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan, in accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce, sue on, settle, or compromise (or decline to do any of the foregoing) all Litigation Claims that the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Estates may hold against any Person or entity.

Schedule 5.9 to the Plan contains a nonexclusive list of claims or causes of actions that the Debtors hold or may hold either in pending or potential litigation. The Debtors reserve their right, prior to the Confirmation Hearing, to modify Schedule 5.9 to add or delete parties or causes of action, but disclaim any obligation to do so.

ARTICLE VI
TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

6.1 Assumed Executory Contracts And Unexpired Leases

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall be deemed to have assumed each executory contract and unexpired lease listed on Schedule 6.1 attached hereto, which Schedule 6.1 will be bifurcated into insider and non-insider executory contracts and unexpired leases, provided, however, that the Debtors reserve their right, at any time prior to the Confirmation Date, to amend Schedule 6.1 to delete an unexpired lease or executory contract therefrom or add any unexpired lease or executory contract thereto. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan, to the extent that an executory contract or unexpired lease is not listed on either Schedule 6.1 or Schedule 6.3 hereto or has previously been assumed or rejected during the administration of the Estates, such executory contract or unexpired lease shall be deemed rejected as if such executory contract or lease had been included on Schedule 6.3 hereto. The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code approving the contract and lease assumptions described above, as of the Effective Date.

6.2 Payments Related To Assumption Of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Any monetary amounts by which each executory contract and unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan is in default shall be satisfied, under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, at the option of the Debtor party to the contract or lease or the assignee of such Debtor party assuming such contract or lease, by Cure. If there is a dispute regarding (a) the nature or amount of any Cure, (b) the ability of any Reorganized Debtor or any assignee 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 (c) any other matter pertaining to assumption, Cure shall occur following the entry of a Final Order resolving the dispute and approving the assumption or assumption and assignment, as the case may be; provided that if there is a dispute as to the amount of Cure or any requirement for adequate assurance of future performance that cannot be resolved consensually among the parties, the Debtors shall have the right to reject the contract or lease for a period of five (5) days after entry of a Final Order establishing a Cure amount in excess of that provided by the Debtors or any requirement for adequate assurance of future performance that is not acceptable to the Debtors. The Confirmation Order shall contain provisions providing for notices of proposed assumptions and proposed cure amounts to be sent to applicable third parties and for procedures for objecting thereto (which shall provide not less than twenty (20) days notice of such procedures and any deadlines pursuant thereto) and resolution of disputes by the Bankruptcy Court.

6.3 Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

On the Effective Date, each executory contract and unexpired lease listed on Schedule 6.3 to this Plan shall be rejected pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each contract or lease listed on Schedule 6.3 hereto shall be rejected only to the extent that any such contract or lease constitutes an executory contract or unexpired lease; provided, however, that the Debtors reserve their right, at any time prior to the Confirmation Date, to amend Schedule 6.3 hereto to delete an unexpired lease or executory contract therefrom or add any unexpired lease or executory contract thereto. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan, to the extent that an executory contract or unexpired lease is not listed on either Schedule 6.1 or Schedule 6.3 hereto or has not previously been assumed or rejected during the administration of the Estates, such executory contract or unexpired lease shall be deemed rejected as if such executory contract or lease had been included on Schedule 6.3. Listing a contract or lease on Schedule 6.1 or 6.3 hereto shall not constitute an admission by any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor that such contract or lease is an executory contract or unexpired lease or that any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejections, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable, as of the Effective Date.

6.4 Rejection Damages Bar Date

If the rejection by a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, of an executory contract or unexpired lease results in a Claim, then such Claim shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor or the properties of any of them unless a proof of Claim is filed with the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court and served upon counsel to the Debtors, and counsel to the Bankruptcy Committees, within thirty days after service of the earlier of (a) notice of the Confirmation Order, or (b) other notice that the executory contract or unexpired lease has been rejected.

ARTICLE VII
PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS

7.1 Distributions For Claims Or Interests Allowed As Of The Effective Date

Except as otherwise provided herein or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, and subject to the provisions of Section 8.3 and 8.4 of this Plan, all distributions to holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests as of the Effective Date shall be made on the Distribution Date; provided, however, that no distribution shall be made on behalf of any Claim which may be subject to disallowance under section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code. Distributions on account of Claims and Interests that first become Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests after the Effective Date shall be made pursuant to Section 8.4 of this Plan. Notwithstanding the date on which any distribution of New Securities is actually made to a holder of a Claim that is an Allowed Claim on the Effective Date, as of the date of the distribution of such securities such holder shall be deemed to have the rights of a holder as of the Effective Date.

7.2 Interest On Claims

Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, or required by applicable law, post-petition interest shall not accrue or be paid on Claims, and no holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim. Interest shall not accrue or be paid upon any Disputed Claim in respect of the period from the Petition Date to the date a final distribution is made thereon if and after such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim. This provision shall not apply to Allowed Secured Lender Claims and DIP Loan Claims.

7.3 Distributions by Disbursing Agent

(a) Except as set forth in Section 7.3(c) of this Plan, the Disbursing Agent shall make all distributions required under this Plan.

(b) If the Disbursing Agent is an independent third party designated by the Reorganized Debtors to serve in such capacity, such Disbursing Agent shall receive, without further Bankruptcy Court approval, reasonable compensation for distribution services rendered pursuant to the Plan and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such services from the Reorganized Debtors on terms acceptable to the Reorganized Debtors. No Disbursing Agent shall be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

(c) Distributions to holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 4 and 5 shall be made by the respective Indenture Trustees. In full satisfaction of the Claims of the Indenture Trustees for services under the Trust Indentures, including Claims secured by the Indenture Trustees’ charging liens under the Trust Indentures, the Indenture Trustees will receive Cash equal to the amount of the Indenture Trustees’ reasonable fees and expenses. Distributions to be made to holders of Claims shall not be reduced on account of the payment to the Indenture Trustee fees and expenses. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date and without further application to the Bankruptcy Court or amendment to its proof of Claim, Reorganized Industries will pay to each Indenture Trustee, in full satisfaction of such Indenture Trustee’s reasonable fees and expenses, Cash in an amount equal to the amount of such fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee. Any disputes as to the reasonableness of such fees and expenses shall be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court. Upon full satisfaction of the Indenture Trustees’ fees and expenses, the Indenture Trustees’ charging liens shall be released.

7.4 (Reserved)

7.5 Means Of Cash Payment

Cash payments made pursuant to this Plan shall be in U.S. funds by check or wire transfer.

7.6 Calculation Of Distribution Amounts Of New Securities

No fractional shares of New Common Shares or fractional New Debt Securities shall be issued or distributed under the Plan or by Reorganized Industries or the Disbursing Agent. Each Person entitled to receive New Common Shares or New Debt Securities will receive the total number of whole shares of New Common Shares and New Debt Securities to which such Person is entitled. Whenever any distribution to a particular Person would otherwise call for distribution of a fraction of a share of New Common Shares or fractional New Debt Securities, the actual distribution of shares or debt securities shall be rounded to the next higher or lower whole number as follows: (a) fractions one-half or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number, and (b) fractions of less than one-half shall be rounded to the next lower whole number. No consideration shall be provided in lieu of fractional shares or debt securities that are rounded down.

7.7 Delivery Of Distributions

Distributions to holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests shall be made by the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustees, as applicable, (a) at the addresses set forth on the proofs of Claim or Interest filed by such holders (or at the last known addresses of such holders if no proof of Claim or Interest is filed or if the Debtors have been notified of a change of address), (b) at the addresses set forth in any written notices of address changes delivered to the Disbursing Agent after the date of any related proof of Claim or Interest, (c) at the addresses reflected in the Schedules if no proof of Claim or Interest has been filed and the Disbursing Agent has not received a written notice of a change of address, or (d) in the case of the holder of an Allowed Claim in Classes 4 or 5, at the addresses contained in the official records of the applicable Indenture Trustee, or (e) at the addresses set forth in a properly completed letter of transmittal accompanying securities properly remitted to the Debtors. If any holder’s distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions to such holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent is notified of such holder’s then current address, at which time all missed distributions shall be made to such holder without interest. Amounts in respect of undeliverable distributions made by the Disbursing Agent, shall be returned to the Reorganized Debtors until such distributions are claimed. All claims for undeliverable distributions made by the Disbursing Agent must be made on or before the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Date, after which date all unclaimed property shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors free of any restrictions thereon and the claims of any holder or successor to such holder with respect to such property shall be discharged and forever barred, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, Disbursing Agent or the Indenture Trustee to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed Claim.

7.8 Surrender of Securities and Instruments

(a) As a condition precedent to receiving any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, each holder of a Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries shall tender the applicable instruments, securities or other documentation evidencing such Claim or Interest to the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, in accordance with written instructions to be provided to such holders by the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date. All surrendered instruments, securities and documentation relating to the Demand Certificates, the Subordinated Debt or the Old Securities of Industries shall be marked as cancelled. Any holder of a Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries that fails to surrender or is deemed to have failed to surrender the applicable instruments, securities and documentation required to be tendered hereunder within one year after the Effective Date shall have its Claim or Interest and its distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claim or Interest discharged and shall be forever barred from asserting such Claim or Interest against the Reorganized Debtors or their property. Any New Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claim or Interest shall, pending such surrender, be treated as an undeliverable distribution pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Plan.

(b) In addition to any requirements under the applicable certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws of the applicable Debtor, any holder of a Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries that has been lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed shall, in lieu of surrendering such instrument, security or documentation deliver to the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, (i) evidence satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee of the loss, theft, mutilation or destruction; and (ii) such indemnity as may be required by the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee to hold the Disbursing Agent or Indenture Trustee harmless from any damages, liabilities or costs incurred in treating such individual as a holder of a Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries that has been lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Upon compliance with this Section 7.8(b) by a holder of a Claim or Interest evidenced by a Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries, such holder shall, for all purposes under the Plan, be deemed to have surrendered its Demand Certificate, Subordinated Debt or Old Security of Industries.

7.9 Withholding And Reporting Requirements

In connection with this Plan and all distributions hereunder, the Disbursing Agent shall, to the extent applicable, comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, provincial, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions hereunder shall be subject to any such withholding and reporting requirements. The Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan: (a) each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution of New Securities pursuant to the Plan shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any governmental unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution, and (b) no distribution shall be made to or on behalf of such holder pursuant to the Plan unless and until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent for the payment and satisfaction of such tax obligations. Any New Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Plan shall, pending the implementation of such arrangements, be treated as an undeliverable distribution pursuant to Section 7.7 of this Plan.

7.10 Setoffs

The Reorganized Debtors may, but shall not be required to, set off against any Claim, and the payments or other distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan in respect of such Claim, claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim; provided, however, that neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Reorganized Debtors of any such claim that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may have against such holder.

ARTICLE VIII
PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED, CONTINGENT, AND
UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS AND DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT THERETO

8.1 Prosecution Of Objections to Claims

(a) Objections to Claims

All objections to Claims and Interests must be filed and served on the holders of such Claims and Interests by the Objection Deadline. If an objection has not been filed to a proof of Claim or Interest or a scheduled Claim or Interest by the Objection Deadline, the Claim or Interest to which the proof of Claim or Interest or scheduled Claim or Interest relates will be treated as an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest if such Claim or Interest has not been allowed earlier.

(b) Authority to Prosecute Objections

After the Confirmation Date, only the Reorganized Debtors will have the authority to file objections, settle, compromise, withdraw or litigate to judgment objections to Claims or Interests, including Claims for reclamation under section 546(c) of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as provided below, from and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may settle or compromise any Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest without approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

8.2 Treatment of Disputed Claims

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no payments or distributions will be made on account of a Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest, or, if less than the entire Claim or Interest is a Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest, the portion of a Claim or Interest that is Disputed, until such Claim or Interest becomes an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest.

8.3 Disputed Claims Reserves

Prior to making any distributions of the New Common Shares or the New Debt Securities to holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 4, 5, 6 or 8, the Disbursing Agent shall establish appropriate reserves for Disputed Claims and Disputed Interests in such Classes, respectively, to withhold from any such distributions 100% of distributions to which holders of Disputed Claims and Disputed Interests in such Classes would be entitled under the Plan as of such date if such Disputed Claims or Disputed Interests were Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests in their Disputed Claim Amount or Disputed Interest Amount. The Disbursing Agent shall also establish appropriate reserves for Disputed Claims in other Classes, as it determines necessary and appropriate.

8.4 Distributions on Account of Disputed Claims Once They Are Allowed and Additional Distributions on Account of Previously Allowed Claims

On each Quarterly Distribution Date, the Reorganized Debtors will make distributions from the Disputed Claims and Disputed Interests reserves (a) on account of any Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest that has become an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest during the preceding calendar quarter and (b) on account of previously Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests, of property that would have been distributed to such Claim or Interest holders on the dates distributions previously were made to holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests had the Disputed Claims and Disputed Interests that have become Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests been Allowed on such dates. Such distributions will be made pursuant to the provisions of the Plan governing the applicable Class. Holders of such Claims and Interests that are ultimately allowed will also be entitled to receive, on the basis of the amount ultimately allowed, the amount of any dividends or other distributions, if any, received on account of the shares of New Common Shares or New Debt Securities between the Effective Date and the date such shares or debt securities are distributed to such Claim or Interest holder.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

11.1 Professional Fee Claims

All final requests for compensation or reimbursement for Professionals pursuant to sections 327, 328, 330, 331, 503(b) or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code for services rendered prior to the Effective Date and Substantial Contribution Claims under section 503(b)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code must be filed and served on the Reorganized Debtors and their counsel no later than forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. Objections to applications of such Professionals or other entities for compensation or reimbursement of expenses must be filed and served on the Reorganized Debtors and their counsel and the requesting Professional or other entity no later than thirty (30) days (or such longer period as may be allowed by order of the Bankruptcy Court) after the date on which the applicable application for compensation or reimbursement was served.

11.2 Administrative Claims Bar Date

All requests for payment of an Administrative Claim (other than as set forth in Sections 3.1 and 11.1 of this Plan) must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served on counsel for the Debtors and counsel for each Bankruptcy Committee no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Unless the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors object to an Administrative Claim within forty-five (45) Business Days after receipt, such Administrative Claim shall be deemed allowed in the amount requested. In the event that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors object to an Administrative Claim, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine the allowed amount of such Administrative Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no request for payment of an Administrative Claim need be filed with respect to an Administrative Claim which is paid or payable by a Debtor in the ordinary course of business.

11.3 Payment Of Statutory Fees

All fees payable pursuant to section 1930 of Title 28 of the United States Code, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the Confirmation shall be paid on or before the Effective Date.

11.4 Modifications and Amendments

(a) The Debtors reserve the right, in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules, to amend or modify this Plan at any time prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order. After the entry of the Confirmation Order, the Debtors (subject to consent of the Bankruptcy Committees and the administrative agent under the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) may amend or modify this Plan, in accordance with Section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code, or remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan in such manner as may be necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of this Plan. A holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest that is deemed to have accepted this Plan shall be deemed to have accepted this Plan as modified if the proposed modification does not materially and adversely change the treatment of the Claim or Interest of such holder. In addition, the Plan shall be deemed automatically amended and modified to the extent determined necessary by the Bankruptcy Court to comply with the DIP Credit Agreement, including Sections 8.6(f) and 8.13.

(b) In the event that any Impaired Class shall not accept the Plan, at the written election of the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court with respect to any one or more of said nonaccepting Classes and any Classes junior to such nonaccepting Classes, the Plan shall be modified and amended automatically and without further notice to provide such treatment, as determined necessary by the Bankruptcy Court, sufficient to assure that the Plan does not discriminate unfairly, and is fair and equitable, with respect to the Classes rejecting the Plan, and, in particular, the treatment necessary to meet the requirements of Sections 1129(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to (i) the rejecting Classes and (ii) any other Classes adversely affected by such modifications. In particular, the treatment of any nonaccepting Classes or adversely affected Classes shall be modified and amended from that set forth in Article III, even if less favorable, to the minimum treatment necessary to meet the requirements of Sections 1129(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

11.5 Severability Of Plan Provisions

If, prior to Confirmation, 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 any Debtor, 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, the remainder of the terms and provisions of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect and shall 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 the Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

11.6 Successors And Assigns

The rights, benefits and obligations of any entity named or referred to in the Plan shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, any heir, executor, administrator, successor or assign of such entity.

11.7 Compromises and Settlements

Pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9019(a), the Debtors may compromise and settle various Claims against them and/or claims that they may have against other Persons. The Debtors expressly reserve the right (with Bankruptcy Court approval, following appropriate notice and opportunity for a hearing) to compromise and settle Claims against them and claims that they may have against other Persons up to and including the Effective Date.

11.8 (Reserved)

11.9 Discharge Of The Debtors

Except as otherwise provided in the Confirmation Order or the Plan, Confirmation shall, as of the Effective Date, (i) discharge and release the Debtors under section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code from any and all Claims, including, but not limited to, demands and liabilities that arose before the Confirmation Date, and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h) or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or not (a) a proof of Claim based upon such debt is filed or deemed filed under section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) a Claim based upon such debt is Allowed under section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (c) the holder of a Claim based upon such debt accepted the Plan, and (ii) terminate all Old Securities of Industries.

(b) As of the Effective Date, except as provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, all entities shall be precluded from asserting against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, any other or further claims, debts, rights, causes of action, liabilities or equity interests relating to the Debtors based upon any act, omission, transaction or other activity of any nature that occurred prior to the Confirmation Date. In accordance with the foregoing, except as provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, the Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of discharge of all such Claims and other debts and liabilities against the Debtors and termination of all Old Securities of Industries, pursuant to sections 524 and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, and such discharge shall void any judgment obtained against the Debtors at any time, to the extent that such judgment relates to a discharged Claim or terminated Interest.

(c) In the event of a Section 363 Scenario, the Confirmation Order shall not discharge any Debtor from any debt or liability that arose before Confirmation and Section 11.9(a) and (b) of the Plan shall not apply.

11.10 Injunction

(a) Except as provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, as of the Confirmation Date, all entities that have held, currently hold or may hold a Claim or other debt or liability that is discharged or an Interest or other right of an equity security holder that is terminated pursuant to the terms of the Plan are permanently enjoined from taking any of the following actions against the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors or their property on account of any such discharged Claims, debts or liabilities or terminated Interests or rights: (i) commencing or continuing, in any manner or in any place, any action or other proceeding; (ii) enforcing, attaching, collecting or recovering in any manner any judgment, award, decree or order; (iii) creating, perfecting or enforcing any lien or encumbrance; (iv) asserting a setoff, right of subrogation or recoupment of any kind against any debt, liability or obligation due to the Debtors; and (v) commencing or continuing any action, in any manner, in any place that does not comply with or is inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

(b) As of the Effective Date, all entities that have held, currently hold or may hold a Claim, demand, debt, right, cause of action or liability that is released pursuant to Section 5.12 or 11.11 of this Plan are permanently enjoined from taking any of the following actions on account of such released Claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, causes of action or liabilities: (i) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding; (ii) enforcing, attaching, collecting or recovering in any manner any judgment, award, decree or order; (iii) creating, perfecting or enforcing any lien or encumbrance: (iv) asserting a setoff, right of subrogation or recoupment of any kind against any debt, liability or obligation due to any released entity; and (v) commencing or continuing any action, in any manner, in any place that does not comply with or is inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

(c) In the event of a Section 363 Scenario, (i) Section 11.10(a) and (b) of the Plan shall not apply, and (ii) unless expressly modified or lifted by the Bankruptcy Court, all injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Case pursuant to sections 105 or 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until 30 days after the Final Distribution Date.

(d) Section 11.10 shall not alter or affect the rights and remedies set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement.

11.11 Exculpation And Limitation Of Liability

(a) Subject to limitations required by applicable ethical rules and standards of conduct, and except as limited in Section 11.11(b) below, none of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Bankruptcy Committees, the Indenture Trustees, or the Lenders, nor any of their respective present or former members, officers, directors, employees, advisors, or attorneys shall have or incur any liability to any holder of a Claim or an Interest, or any other party in interest, or any of their respective agents, employees, representatives, financial advisors, attorneys, or affiliates, or any of their successors or assigns, for any act or omission from and after the Petition Date in connection with, relating to, or arising out of, the Chapter 11 Case, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Case, the administration of the Chapter 11 Case, the pursuit of and the approval of the sales of the Debtors’ assets (and the related asset purchase agreement), the formulation, negotiation or implementation of the Plan, the solicitation of acceptances of the Plan, the pursuit of confirmation of the Plan, the confirmation of the Plan, the consummation of the Plan, or the administration of the Plan or the property to be distributed under the Plan, except for their gross negligence or willful misconduct, and in all respects shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities under the Plan.

(b) The exculpatory provisions contained in Section 11.11(a) of this Plan (i) shall not limit the claims and rights, if any, of the United States, and (ii) shall apply to any person or entity who was not the beneficiary of a post-petition indemnification obligation of the Debtors only to the extent provided in Section 11.11(c).

(c) Any Claims that would otherwise be subject to the exculpatory provisions contained in Section 11.11(a) but for the provisions of Section 11.11(b)(ii) may only be asserted in the Bankruptcy Court and only if filed on or before sixty days after the Effective Date. In the event that any such Claims are not filed timely in the Bankruptcy Court, the exemption contained in Section 11.11(b)(ii) shall be terminated with respect to such claims, and such claims shall be deemed subject to the exculpatory provisions contained in Section 11.11(a).

The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtors, all present and former holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtors, their respective successors and assigns, including, but not limited to, the Reorganized Debtors, and all other parties-in-interest in this Chapter 11 Case.

11.13 Revocation, Withdrawal, Or Non-Consummation

The Debtors reserve the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan at any time prior to the Effective Date and to file subsequent plans of reorganization; provided, however, that any revocation or withdrawal of the Plan after the Confirmation Date shall be with the consent of the Bankruptcy Committees and the administrative agent under the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
