(b) Professional Fee Claims. (i) Each Professional who holds or asserts an Administrative Expense that is a Professional Fee Claim shall be required to file with the Bankruptcy Court, and to serve on all parties required to receive notice, a final Fee Application on or before the Professional Fee Bar Date.

A Professional Fee Claim with respect to which a Fee Application has been properly and timely filed pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be treated and paid only to the extent approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court. No Professional Fee Claims shall be allowed on account of any services rendered by a Professional whose retention with respect to the Chapter 11 Cases has not been approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

If there are any remaining funds remaining from such amounts allocated to the Creditors’ Committee’s Professionals after the payment of Allowed fees and expenses of such Professionals, such surplus shall be treated as Estate Remaining Funds. (c) Statutory Fees. All fees payable on or before the Effective Date (i) pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1930, together with interest, if any, pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 3717, and (ii) to the United States Trustee, shall be paid by the Debtors on or before the Effective Date.

ARTICLE IV VOTING AND SUBSTANTIVE CONSOLIDATION 4.1 Voting; Presumptions. (a) Acceptance by Impaired Classes. Each Impaired Class of Claims that will (or may) receive or retain property or any interest in property under the Plan shall be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. An Impaired Class of Claims shall have accepted the Plan if (i) the holders (other than any holder designated under section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code) of at least two-thirds in amount of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such Class have voted to accept the Plan and (ii) the holders (other than any holder designated under section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code) of more than one-half in number of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such Class have voted to accept the Plan. (b) Voting Presumptions. Claims in Unimpaired Classes are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. Claims and Interests in Classes that do not entitle the holders thereof to receive or retain any property under the Plan are conclusively deemed to have rejected the Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. 4.2 Substantive Consolidation; Merger. (a) As of the Effective Date, the assets, Claims and affairs of the Debtors and their respective Estates shall be substantively consolidated into the Estate of Hooper Holmes pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code for all purposes, including for purposes of voting and Distribution.

18-23302-rdd Doc 292 Filed 12/14/18 Entered 12/14/18 15:16:21 Main Document Pg 19 of 42 (b) Substantive consolidation of the Debtors shall constitute the de facto merger of the other Debtors into Hooper Holmes. Substantive consolidation shall not affect distributions from any insurance policies or the proceeds of such policies. (c) In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation, the Debtors reserve the right to seek Confirmation of the Plan as to each Debtor individually or to withdraw as to any Debtor. Subject to the requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, neither the inability of the Debtors to obtain Confirmation of the Plan as to any Debtor nor the election of the Debtors to withdraw the Plan as to any Debtor shall impair the Confirmation or consummation of the Plan as to any other Debtor. 4.3 Request for Substantive Consolidation. (a) Substantive Consolidation. The Plan shall serve as a motion by the Debtors seeking entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidating the Debtors and their Estates, and the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the substantive consolidation of the Debtors and their Estates. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court substantively consolidates some but not all of the Debtors, the Debtors reserve the right to proceed with Confirmation with no or partial substantive consolidation consistent with the Bankruptcy Court’s order. 4.4 Intercompany Claims and Interests Among Debtors. (a) If Substantively Consolidated. If substantive consolidation is ordered pursuant to this Article IV, (i) no Distributions shall be made under the Plan on account of any Intercompany Claims, Administrative Expenses, or Interests between and among any of the Debtors, (ii) for all purposes associated with Confirmation, including, without limitation, for purposes of tallying acceptances and rejections of the Plan, the Estates of the Debtors shall be deemed to be one consolidated Estate of Hooper Holmes, and (iii) all guarantees of any Debtor of the obligations of any other Debtor shall be eliminated so that any Claim against any Debtor and any guarantee thereof executed by any other Debtor and any joint and several liability of any Debtor shall be one obligation of the Debtors. (b) If Not Substantively Consolidated. If substantive consolidation is not ordered pursuant to this Article IV, there shall be no Distributions made on account of any Intercompany Claims, Administrative Expenses, or Interests between and among any of the Debtors. Pursuant to sections 1126(f) and 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, holders of Intercompany Claims or Interests shall not be entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. 4.5 Tabulation of Votes. (a) If Substantively Consolidated. If the Debtors are substantively consolidated, the Debtors will tabulate votes on the Plan on a consolidated basis by Class for the purpose of determining whether the Plan satisfies sections 1129(a)(8) or (10) of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable, for the consolidated Debtors. In that event, the Claims against the Debtors shall be voted in a single consolidated Class (e.g., holders of Class 5 Claims) against the Page 16 9630256v.5 4850-0086-0282.8

(b) If Not Substantively Consolidated. If the Debtors are not substantively consolidated, the Debtors will tabulate all votes on the Plan on a non-consolidated basis by Class for the purpose of determining whether the Plan satisfies sections 1129(a)(8) or (10) of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable, with respect to each Debtor. For each Debtor that satisfies sections 1129(a)(8) or (10) of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable, and provided that all other requirements to Confirmation of the Plan are met, the Confirmation of this Plan as to such Debtor shall be deemed to occur by operation of the Plan. 4.6 Reservation of Rights. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation of the Debtors, then except as specifically set forth in the Plan: (a) nothing in the Plan or the Disclosure Statement shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an admission that one of the Debtors is subject to or liable for any Claim against any other Debtor; (b) Claims against multiple Debtors shall be treated as separate Claims with respect to each Debtor’s Estate for all purposes (including, without limitation, Distributions and voting), and such Claims shall be administered as provided in the Plan; and (c) the Debtors shall not, nor shall they be required to, resolicit votes with respect to the Plan, nor will the failure of the Bankruptcy Court to approve substantive consolidation of the Debtors alter the Distributions set forth in the Plan. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court does not order substantive consolidation, the Plan comprises a separate plan for each Debtor and the Confirmation requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code must be satisfied separately for each Debtor under the Plan. ARTICLE V TREATMENT OF CLASSES OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS The categories of Classes, Claims and Interests listed below classify Claims and Interests (other than Administrative Expenses dealt with in Article III) in or against the Debtors for all purposes, including voting, Confirmation, and Distribution, pursuant to the Plan and pursuant to sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. If substantive consolidation is ordered pursuant to Article IV of the Plan, each Class listed below will vote as set forth in Article IV of the Plan. If substantive consolidation is not ordered, each Class listed below shall vote as a single separate Class for each Debtor, including with respect to the Confirmation requirements under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. 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 the remaining portion of such Claim or Interest, if any, 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. A Claim or Interest is in a particular Class only to the extent that such Claim or Interest is Allowed in that Class and has not been paid or otherwise satisfied prior to the Effective Date. Section 3.1 of the Plan deals with payment of unclassified Administrative Expenses and Priority Non-Tax Claims. Page 17 9630256v.5 4850-0086-0282.8

(ii) In determining the Face Amount of Disputed Claims in accordance with the Plan, the Liquidating Trustee may rely on the Debtors’ estimates as to Disputed Claims and will have no liability therefor in the absence of bad faith or gross negligence.

(b) Claim Estimates. Upon a request for estimation by the Debtors or the Liquidating Trust, the Bankruptcy Court will determine what amount of Cash from the initial and subsequent Distributions is sufficient to reserve on account of any Disputed Claim not otherwise treated in the Plan, pursuant to section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law, in which event the amount so determined will be deemed the Allowed amount of such Disputed Claim for purposes of this Plan, or, in lieu thereof, the Bankruptcy Court will determine the maximum amount for such Disputed Claim, which amount will be the maximum amount in which such Claim may ultimately be Allowed, if such Claim is Allowed in whole or in part. If the Debtors or the Liquidating Trust elect not to request such an estimation from the Bankruptcy Court with respect to a Disputed Claim that is liquidated, the Debtors or the Liquidating Trust, as applicable, will reserve Cash based on the Face Amount of such Claim until the Claim is Allowed by an order of the Bankruptcy Court, at which time the reserve amount pending a Final Order may be the amount so Allowed. 6.17 Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions. (a) If a holder of an Allowed Claim fails to negotiate a check issued to such holder pursuant to this Plan within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date such check was forwarded to such holder, the Liquidating Trust shall issue a “stop payment order” for that non- negotiated check. The amount attributable to that non-negotiated check shall be deemed vested in the Liquidating Trust, and the payee of such check and holder of such Claim shall be deemed to have no further Claim and will not participate in any further Distributions under this Plan. (b) If a Distribution under this Plan to any holder of an Allowed Claim is returned to the Liquidating Trust due to an incorrect address and such holder does not present itself within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date such check was forwarded to said holder (if the Liquidating Trustee with reasonable diligence can identify a correct address), the amount of Cash attributable to such check will be deemed vested in the Liquidating Trust, and the payee of such check and holder of such Claim shall be deemed to have no further Claim and will not participate in any further Distributions under this Plan 6.18 Transmittal of Distributions and Notices. (a) Any property or notice other than Cash Distributions which an Entity is or becomes entitled to receive pursuant to the Plan shall be delivered by regular mail, postage prepaid, in an envelope addressed to that Entity at the address indicated on any notice of appearance Filed by that Entity or his authorized agent prior to the Effective Date. If no notice of appearance has been Filed, notice shall be sent to the address indicated on a properly Filed proof of Claim or, absent such a proof of Claim, the address that is listed on the Schedules for that Entity.

(b) A holder of a Claim or Interest may designate a different address for notices and Distributions by notifying the Liquidating Trustee of that address in writing. The new address shall be effective upon receipt by the Liquidating Trustee. 6.19 Withholding Taxes. Any federal, state or local withholding taxes or other amounts required to be withheld under applicable law shall be deducted from Distributions hereunder. All Entities holding Claims shall be required to provide any information necessary to effect the withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Debtors and the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, shall be authorized to take all actions necessary to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under the Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions, and establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate to comply with such requirements. The Debtors reserve the right to allocate all distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support, and other spousal awards, liens, and encumbrances. 6.20 Retention of Rights to Pursue Causes of Action. Pursuant to § 1123(b)(3), the Liquidating Trust (as successor to the Debtors’ Estates) shall retain and have the exclusive right to enforce against any Entity any and all Causes of Action of the Debtors or their Estates (including, without limitation, all Chapter 5 Causes of Action) that arose before the Effective Date, including all Causes of Action of a trustee and a debtor in possession under the Bankruptcy Code; and each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Interest shall contribute to the Liquidating Trust their interests in the Causes of Action, and the Liquidating Trust shall be authorized as the representative of the Estates to pursue such Causes of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Causes of Action shall not include those Chapter 5 Causes of Action expressly released or compromised as part of or pursuant to the Plan, the Confirmation Order, the Sale Order, or other order of the Bankruptcy Court. The Causes of Action retained by the Liquidating Trust include, without limitation, all Causes of Action listed on Exhibit B to the Disclosure Statement. 6.21 Allocation of Plan Distributions between Principal and Interest. For distributions in respect of Allowed Claims, to the extent that any such Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated to the principal amount (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of the Claim first, and then to accrued but unpaid interest.

ARTICLE VII THE LIQUIDATING TRUST AND THE LIQUIDATING TRUSTEE 7.1 The Liquidating Trust (a) The Liquidating Trust, duly organized under the laws of the State of New York, is created for the primary purpose of liquidating the Liquidating Trust Assets. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Liquidating Trust shall be structured to qualify as a “liquidating trust” under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d) and in compliance with Revenue Procedure 94-45. Thus, the Liquidating Trust shall be structured as a “grantor trust” within the meaning of Sections 671 through 679 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Liquidating Trust shall not continue or engage in the conduct of a trade or business, except to the extent reasonably necessary to, and consistent with, the liquidating purpose of the trust. Accordingly, the beneficiaries of the Liquidating Trust, who will be treated as the grantors and deemed owners for federal income tax purposes, are the Holders of Allowed Claims in Classes 1, 2, 3, and 5. The Liquidating Trustee shall file federal income tax returns for the Liquidating Trust as a grantor trust pursuant to Section 671 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Tax Regulations promulgated thereunder. (b) The parties shall not take any position on their respective tax returns or with respect to any other matter related to taxes that is inconsistent with treating the Liquidating Trust as a “liquidating trust” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d), unless any party receives definitive guidance to the contrary from the Internal Revenue Service. 7.2 Funding of Res of Trust (a) To fund the Liquidating Trust, all of the Liquidating Trust Assets shall be transferred and assigned to the Liquidating Trust, and the Liquidating Trust shall be in possession of, and have title to, all the Liquidating Trust Assets, as of the Effective Date. The Liquidating Trustee, as trustee of the Liquidating Trust, shall be substituted as the plaintiff, defendant, or other party in all lawsuits regarding Causes of Action pending in which any of the Debtors or the Creditors’ Committee is the plaintiff as of the Effective Date. The conveyances of all Liquidating Trust Assets shall be accomplished pursuant to this Plan and the Confirmation Page 28 9630256v.5 4850-0086-0282.8


 
18-23302-rdd Doc 292 Filed 12/14/18 Entered 12/14/18 15:16:21 Main Document Pg 32 of 42 Order and shall be effective upon the Effective Date. The conveyance of the Liquidating Trust Assets to the Liquidating Trust shall be free and clear of all Liens, Claims or other encumbrances. Upon the Effective Date, the Liquidating Trust shall also be deemed to have taken (a) an assignment of all Causes of Action against third parties for obligations or claims existing on or created by virtue of the Effective Date, unless expressly released in this Plan, and (b) an assignment, bill of sale, deed and/or release covering all other Liquidating Trust Assets to the extent necessary to effect the transfer and assignment of such Liquidating Trust Assets. The Liquidating Trustee may present such orders to the Bankruptcy Court as may be necessary to require third parties to accept and acknowledge such conveyance to the Liquidating Trust. Such Orders may be presented without further notice other than as has been given in this Plan. (b) For all federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes, all Persons (including, without limitation, the Debtors, the Liquidating Trustee and the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries) will treat the transfer and assignment of the Liquidating Trust Assets to the Liquidating Trust for the benefit of the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries as (a) a transfer of the Liquidating Trust Assets directly to the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries followed by (b) the transfer of the Liquidating Trust Assets by the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries to the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidating Trust will be treated as a grantor trust for federal tax purposes and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, for state and local income tax purposes. The Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries will be treated as the grantors and deemed owners of their allocable portion of the Liquidating Trust Assets for the federal income tax purposes. The fair market value of the portion of the Liquidating Trust Assets that is treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as having been transferred to each Liquidating Trust Beneficiary, as described in the preceding paragraph, will be determined by the Liquidating Trustee, and all parties (including, without limitation, the Liquidating Trustee and the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries) must utilize such fair market values determined by the Liquidating Trustee for federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes. (c) The Liquidating Trust’s taxable income, gain, loss, deduction or credit will be allocated to the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries in accordance with their relative beneficial interests in the Liquidating Trust on a current basis during the applicable taxable period. Such allocation will be binding on all parties for federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes, and the parties will be responsible for the payment of any federal, state and local income tax due on the income and gain so allocated to them. (d) The Liquidating Trustee may establish a reserve on account of Disputed claims. The Liquidating Trustee may, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and, to the extent permitted by law, for state and local income tax purposes), (i) make an election pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-9 to treat such reserve as a “disputed ownership fund” within the meaning of that section; (ii) allocate taxable income or loss to such reserve, with respect to any given taxable year (but only for the portion of the taxable year with respect to which such Claims are Disputed); and (iii) distribute assets from such reserve as, when, and to the extent such Claims that are Disputed cease to be Disputed, whether by virtue of becoming Allowed or otherwise resolved. The Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries shall be bound by such election, if made by the trustee, and, as such, shall, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and, to Page 29 9630256v.5 4850-0086-0282.8

Matters relating to the appointment, removal and resignation of the Liquidating Trustee and the appointment of any successor Liquidating Trustee shall be set forth in the Liquidating Trust Agreement, provided that the at any time upon the request of a party-in- interest through a motion filed in the Court, the Court may remove the Liquidating Trustee, including any successor Liquidating Trustee for cause (as defined in the Liquidating Trust Agreement). The Liquidating Trustee shall be required to perform his or her duties as set forth in this Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement. 7.5 Retention of Professionals The Liquidating Trustee shall have the right to retain the services of attorneys, accountants, and other professionals that, in the discretion of the Liquidating Trustee, are necessary to assist the Liquidating Trustee in the performance of his or her duties, in accordance with the Plan, the Liquidating Trust Agreement, and the Confirmation Order. The payment of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Liquidating Trustee’s retained professionals shall be made in the ordinary course of business, first, from the Liquidating Trust Administrative Expenses Reserve and, second, from the Liquidating Trust Assets, and shall not be subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Professionals of, among others, the Creditors’ Committee and the Debtors, shall be eligible for retention by the Liquidating Trustee, and former employees of the Debtors shall be eligible for retention by the Liquidating Trustee. 7.6 Compensation of the Liquidating Trustee The Liquidating Trustee’s compensation, on a post-Effective Date basis, shall be as provided in the Liquidating Trust Agreement.
