Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors shall have ten (10) days from the receipt of any such written notice of termination from the Requisite Consenting Creditors specifying the purported default or Creditor Termination Event to cure any purported default or Creditor Termination Event under this section and no termination of this Agreement shall be effective unless and until the expiration of such ten (10) day period without such purported default or Creditor Termination Event being waived or cured, provided that such ten (10) day period shall not be applicable to the extent passage of such period would materially impair the rights of Consenting Creditors to object to, vote against, or appear in Court with respect to the Plan, which actions shall be permitted following written notice of termination from the Requisite Consenting Creditors only if the deadline to object to or vote on the Plan, or a court hearing on the Plan, occurs within such ten (10) day period. The Requisite Consenting Creditors may elect to pursue a higher claim amount by written notice to the Debtors of such election within ten (10) days of termination following a Creditor Termination Event (the “Allowance Termination Notice”). Following the delivery of an Allowance Termination Notice, the Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount shall no longer be binding in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the holders of Subrogation Claims, the Debtors and other parties in interest shall have all rights reserved, including with respect to the amount, future allowability and treatment of all Subrogation Claims.
(e)Debtors Termination. The Debtors may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Ad Hoc Professionals upon (each, a “Debtor Termination Event”):
(i) the breach by Consenting Creditors holding at least 5% of the RSA Claims then party to this Agreement (measured either by dollar amount or number of holders) of any of their undertakings, obligations, representations, warranties, or covenants set forth in this Agreement and thereafter the Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount shall no longer be binding in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the holders of Subrogation Claims, the Debtors and other parties in interest shall have all rights reserved, including with respect to the amount, future allowability and treatment of all Subrogation Claims; or
(ii) (A) The Bankruptcy Court confirms a plan other than the Plan incorporating the Settlement, or (B) the issuance, promulgation, or enactment by any governmental entity, including any regulatory or licensing authority or court of competent jurisdiction (including, without limitation, an order of the Bankruptcy Court which has not been stayed), of any statute, regulation, ruling or order declaring the Plan or any material portion thereof (in each case, to the extent it relates to the Settlement or the terms hereof) to be unenforceable or enjoining or otherwise restricting the consummation of any material portion of the Plan (to the extent it relates to the Settlement) or the Settlement, and such ruling, judgment, or order has not been stayed, reversed, or vacated, within fifteen (15) calendar days after issuance. For the avoidance of doubt, following a termination pursuant to this Section 5(e)(ii), unless otherwise ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or governmental entity, the Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount shall be binding in the Chapter 11 Cases, and shall survive such termination of this Agreement, subject to the right of the Requisite Consenting Creditors to deliver an Allowance Termination Notice as set forth above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Consenting Creditors shall have ten (10) days from the receipt of any such written notice of termination from the Debtors specifying the purported default or Debtor Termination Event to cure any purported default or Debtor Termination Event under this section and no termination of this Agreement shall be effective unless and until the expiration of such ten (10) day period without such purported default or Debtor Termination Event being waived or cured. The Debtor Termination Event set forth in Section 5(e)(i) shall be deemed cured if, ten (10) days after receipt of the termination notice, non-breaching Consenting Creditors then party to this Agreement (A) hold at least 95% of the RSA Claims (in dollar amount), and (B) out number RSA Claim holders breaching this Agreement by a ratio of 19-1.
(f)Termination Generally.
(i) No Party may terminate this Agreement based on an event caused by such Party’s own failure to perform or comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this


Agreement (unless such failure to perform or comply arises as a result of another Party’s actions or inactions).
(ii) Upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 5, all Parties shall be released from any prospective commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement other than obligations under this Agreement which by their terms expressly survive termination.
(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, (A) termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party of any liability on account of any breach hereof, including any breach of covenants, and the Parties may pursue remedies at law or in equity, (B) without limiting the foregoing, termination does not relieve any Consenting Creditor from liability to any other Consenting Creditor for any intentional or knowing breach hereof, (C) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the delivery of the Allowance Termination Notice to the Debtors shall not be required upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Termination in order for the holders of RSA Claims, the Debtors or other parties in interest to exercise all of their respective rights, including with respect to the amount, future allowability and treatment of all Subrogation Claims, and (D) absent the delivery of an Allowance Termination Notice, the occurrence of an Insolvency Termination, or termination by the Debtors of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5(e)(i) hereof, the Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount, and each holder’s share thereof, shall remain an allowed claim and binding in these Chapter 11 Cases even if a Debtor is in breach of this Agreement.
6.Mutual Representations, Warranties.
Each of the Parties, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to each other Party that the following statements are true, correct, and complete as of the date hereof (or, if later, the date that such Party first became or becomes a Party) but, solely with respect to the Company, subject to any limitations or approvals arising from, or required by, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases:
(a)it is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization, and this Agreement is a legal, valid, and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability;
(b)except as expressly provided in this Agreement or as may be required for disclosure by the Securities and Exchange Commission, no material consent or approval of, or any registration or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for it to carry out the Settlement contemplated by, and perform its obligations under, this Agreement;
(c)except as expressly provided in this Agreement, it has all requisite organizational power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the Settlement contemplated by, and perform its obligations under, this Agreement;
(d)the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and the performance of its obligations hereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action on its part;
(e)it has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and
(f)the execution, delivery, and performance by such Party of this Agreement does not and will not (i) violate any provision of law, rule, or regulation applicable to it or any of its subsidiaries or its charter or bylaws (or other similar governing documents) or those of any of its subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any material debt for borrowed


money to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule, or regulation.
7.Transfer of Claims
(i)Each Consenting Creditor agrees that it shall not sell, assign, grant, transfer, convey, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (each, a “Transfer”) any RSA Claims now owned or hereafter acquired, or any option thereon or any right or interest (voting or otherwise) in any or all of its RSA Claims, except to a party that (i) is a Consenting Creditor, or (ii), as a condition subsequent to the effectiveness of any such Transfer, executes and delivers a Transfer Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C to counsel to the Ad Hoc Subrogation Group, the Company, and to Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP no more than five (5) Business Days after the settlement of the relevant Transfer (a “Transferee”), and any such RSA Claim automatically shall be deemed to be subject to the terms of this Agreement. With respect to any Transfers effectuated in accordance with clause (ii) above, (A) such Transferee shall be deemed to be a Consenting Creditor for purposes of this Agreement, and (B) the Company shall be deemed to have acknowledged such Transfer.
(ii) This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude any Consenting Creditor from acquiring additional Subrogation Claims against the Company; provided, that, (i) any such additional Subrogation Claims automatically shall be deemed to be RSA Claims and shall be subject to all of the terms of this Agreement and (ii) each such Consenting Creditor agrees that such additional RSA Claims shall be subject to this Agreement.
(iii) Any Transfer of RSA Claims that does not comply with this Section 7 shall be deemed null and void ab initio in all respects and without further action by any Party.
(iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that a Consenting Creditor effects the Transfer of all of its Subrogation Claims in accordance with this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with the foregoing portion of this Section 7, such Consenting Creditor shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement in all respects and shall have no further obligations hereunder.
8.Cooperation. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees to cooperate with each other in good faith in connection with, and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts with respect to the pursuit, approval, negotiation, execution, delivery, and implementation of the Settlement and the Plan, subject to the same provisos contained in Sections 2(a)(i) and 2(b) of this Agreement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide counsel for the Ad Hoc Subrogation Group drafts of all motions, applications, and other substantive pleadings (including Plan and/or Disclosure Statement amendments) the Company intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court to implement the Settlement (or that could reasonably be expected to affect implementation of the Settlement) at least three (3) calendar days before the date when the Company intends to file such pleading, unless such advance notice is impossible or impracticable under the circumstances, in which case the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify telephonically or by electronic mail counsel to the Ad Hoc Subrogation Group to advise them as such and, in any event, shall provide such drafts as soon as reasonably practicable.
9.Amendments. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, no amendment, modification, waiver, or other supplement of the terms of this Agreement or Sections 4.6, 4.19, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6 or 10.9 of the Plan (to the extent such Sections impact Subrogation Claims or holders of Subrogation Claims), and any defined terms used or operative documents referenced therein, shall be valid unless such amendment, modification, waiver, or other supplement is in writing and has been signed by the Company and the Requisite Consenting Creditors; provided, however, that (a) any amendment to this Agreement to (i) the defined term “Requisite Consenting Creditors” and any defined term used in that definition, (ii) the defined term “RSA Approval Order,” (iii) Section 5(a) hereof and any defined term used in that Section, (iv) the conditions to the effectiveness of this Agreement set forth in Section 27, and (v) this Section 9, shall require the written consent of the Company and each Consenting Creditor, (b) any amendment to this Agreement that disproportionately affects any Consenting Creditor or modifies any Consenting Creditor’s obligations under Sections 2 or 8 hereof shall require the written consent of such Consenting Creditor, and (c) so long as the Plan and the Definitive Documents incorporate the terms


of the Settlement, including the Findings and Orders, and do not adversely affect the Settlement or the rights of the Parties under this Agreement no consent of any Consenting Creditor shall be required to amend or otherwise modify the terms of the Plan or any other Definitive Document subject to the first sentence of this Section 9, and provided that Section 10.10 of the Plan shall not be deemed to authorize the subordination of Subrogation Claims. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any material modifications or amendments to this Agreement shall be subject to Bankruptcy Court approval on not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice.
10.Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that any confidentiality agreement executed by any Consenting Creditor or Ad Hoc Professionals shall survive this Agreement and shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.
11.SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENT. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, the agreements and obligations of the Parties that expressly survive termination by their terms and those in Sections 10 through 27 (and any defined terms used in any such Sections) shall survive such termination and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof, and any liability of a Party for failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall survive termination.
12.No Waiver of Participation and Preservation of Rights. Except as specifically provided in Sections 4 and 5 with respect to the Allowed Subrogation Claim Amount, if the transactions contemplated herein are not consummated, or following the occurrence of the termination of this Agreement with respect to all Parties, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, remedies, claims, and defenses and the Parties expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies, claims and defenses.
13.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. Execution copies of this Agreement may be delivered by electronic mail in portable document format (pdf.), facsimile or otherwise, which shall be deemed to be an original for the purposes of this paragraph.
14.Headings. The headings of the Sections, paragraphs, and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation hereof or, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Agreement.
15.Relationship Among Parties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the duties and obligations of the Consenting Creditors under this Agreement shall be several, not joint. No Consenting Creditor shall, as a result of its entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement, be deemed to be part of a “group” (as that term is used in section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) with any of the other Consenting Creditors. It is understood and agreed that no Consenting Creditor has any duty of trust or confidence in any kind or form with any other Consenting Creditor, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, there are no commitments among or between them. No prior history, pattern, or practice of sharing confidences among or between the Consenting Creditors shall in any way affect or negate this understanding and agreement.
16.Remedies. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that, without limiting any other remedies available at law or equity, money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party and each non-breaching Party (including non-breaching Consenting Creditors, if the breaching Party is another Consenting Creditor) shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy of any such breach, including, without limitation, an order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. Each of the Parties hereby waives


any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to post bond or other security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies.
17.Jury Trial, Governing Law and Dispute Resolution.
(v) This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York and applicable federal law, without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof.
(vi) Each Party irrevocably agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party or its successors or assigns shall be brought and determined in the Bankruptcy Court and each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and, if the Bankruptcy Court does not have (or abstains from) jurisdiction, Courts of the State of California and of the United States District Court of the Northern District of California, and any appellate court from any thereof, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each Party further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the Parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court as described herein for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of such court or from any legal process commenced in such court (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) that (A) the proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such court.
(vii) EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

The total number of shares or Interests of New HoldCo Common Stock, as applicable, to be distributed in connection with the Plan shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided for in this Section 5.10.

(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.

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.
(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 federal, state, local, or foreign taxing authority, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution.

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.
5.16 Credit for Distributions under Wildfire Assistance Program. If a holder of an Allowed Wildfire Claim has received any distribution from the Wildfire Assistance Program, such distribution shall be credited against any distribution to be made on account of such holder’s Wildfire Claim under this Plan and in accordance with the terms of the Wildfire Trust Agreements.

(e) Assumption or assumption and assignment of any executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Claims and Causes of Action against any Debtor or defaults by any Debtor, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including those arising under sections 503(b)(9) or 546(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any assumed executory contract or unexpired lease at any time before the date that the Debtors assume or assume and assign such executory contract or unexpired lease.

(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 or in the Plan Documents, 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 has any liability thereunder.
(c) Except as explicitly provided in this Plan, nothing herein 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.

Upon the Effective Date, pursuant to sections 1141(b) and (c) of the Bankruptcy Code, all assets and property of the Debtors shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, and other interests, except as otherwise provided herein.

(a) The sole source of recovery for holders of Subrogation Wildfire Claims and Other Wildfire Claims shall be from the Subrogation Wildfire Trust and the Other Wildfire Trust, as applicable. The holders of such Claims shall have no recourse to or Claims whatsoever against the Reorganized Debtors or their assets and properties. Consistent with the foregoing, all Persons that have held or asserted, or that hold or assert any Subrogation Wildfire Claim or Other Wildfire Claim shall be permanently and forever stayed, restrained, and enjoined from taking any action for the purpose of directly or indirectly collecting, recovering, or receiving payments, satisfaction, or recovery from any Reorganized Debtor or its assets and properties with respect to any Wildfire Claims, including all of the following actions:

(b) Reservations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.7 of the Plan, this Channeling Injunction shall not enjoin:
(i) the rights of holders of Subrogation Wildfire Claims and Other Wildfire Claims to the treatment afforded them under the Plan, including the right to assert such Claims in accordance with the


applicable Wildfire Trust Agreements solely against the applicable Wildfire Trust whether or not there are funds to pay such Wildfire Claims; and
(ii) the Wildfire Trusts from enforcing their rights under the Wildfire Trust Agreements.
(c) Modifications. There can be no modification, dissolution, or termination of the Channeling Injunction, which shall be a permanent injunction.
(d) No Limitation on Channeling Injunction. Nothing in the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or the Wildfire Trust Agreements shall be construed in any way to limit the scope, enforceability, or effectiveness of the Channeling Injunction provided for herein and in the Confirmation Order.
(e) Bankruptcy Rule 3016 Compliance. The Debtors’ compliance with the requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 3016 shall not constitute an admission that the Plan provides for an injunction against conduct not otherwise enjoined under the Bankruptcy Code.
10.8 Exculpation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no Exculpated Party shall have or incur, and each Exculpated Party is hereby released and exculpated from, any Claim, Interest, obligation, suit, judgment, damage, demand, debt, right, Cause of Action, loss, remedy, or liability for any claim (including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of any fiduciary duty or any similar duty) in connection with or arising out of the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases; the negotiation and pursuit of the Public Entities Plan Support Agreements, the Backstop Commitment Letters, the Subrogation Claims RSA, the Exit Financing Documents, the Plan Funding, the DIP Facilities, the Disclosure Statement, the Plan, the Restructuring Transactions, the Wildfire Trusts (including the Plan Documents, the Claims Resolution Procedures and the Wildfire Trust Agreements), or any agreement, transaction, or document related to any of the foregoing, 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; any membership in (including, but not limited to, on an ex officio basis), participation in, or involvement with the Statutory Committees; the issuance of Securities under or in connection with this Plan; or the transactions in furtherance of any of the foregoing; except for Claims related to any act or omission that is determined in a Final Order by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted actual fraud or willful misconduct, but in all respects such Entities shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities pursuant to this Plan. The Exculpated Parties and each of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers, employees, advisors, and attorneys have acted in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the solicitation and distributions pursuant to this Plan and, therefore, are not, and on account of such distributions shall not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of this Plan or such distributions made pursuant to this Plan, including the issuance of Securities thereunder. 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.
10.9 Releases.
(a) Releases by the Debtors. As of and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, except for the rights that remain in effect from and after the Effective Date to enforce this Plan and the Plan Documents, for good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby confirmed, including, the service of the Released Parties to facilitate the reorganization of the Debtors, the implementation of the Restructuring, and except as otherwise provided in this Plan or in the Confirmation Order, the Released Parties are deemed forever released and discharged, to the maximum extent permitted by law and unless barred by law, by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the Debtors’ estates, in each case on behalf of themselves and their respective successors, assigns, and representatives and any and all other Entities who may purport to assert any Cause of Action derivatively, by or through the foregoing Entities, from any and all claims, interests, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, losses, remedies, or liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative claims, asserted or assertable on behalf of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or the Debtors’ estates, whether known or unknown,

(b) Releases by Holders of Claims and Interests. As of and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, except for the rights that remain in effect from and after the Effective Date to enforce the Plan and the Plan Documents, for good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby confirmed, including, the service of the Released Parties to facilitate the reorganization of the Debtors and the implementation of the Restructuring, and except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order, the Released Parties, are deemed forever released and discharged, to the maximum extent permitted by law and unless barred by law, by the Releasing Parties from any and all claims, interests, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, losses, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative claims, asserted or assertable on behalf of the Debtors, and any claims for breach of any fiduciary duty (or any similar duty), whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, that such holders or their affiliates (to the extent such affiliates can be bound) would have been legally entitled to assert in their own right (whether individually or collectively) or on behalf of the holder of any Claim or Interest or other Entity, based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Wildfires, the Chapter 11 Cases, the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any Security of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between any Debtor and any Released Party, the DIP Facilities, the Plan Funding, the Restructuring, the restructuring of any Claim or Interest before or during the Chapter 11 Cases, the Restructuring Transactions, the Public Entities Plan Support Agreement, the Backstop Commitment Letters, the Subrogation Claims RSA, the Exit Financing Documents, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Disclosure Statement, the Plan and related agreements, instruments, and other documents (including the Plan Documents, the Claims Resolution Procedures, the Wildfire Trust Agreements, Public Entities Plan Support Agreements, the Backstop Commitment Letters, the Subrogation Claims RSA, and the Exit Financing Documents), the solicitation of votes with respect to the Plan, any membership in (including, but not limited to, on an ex officio basis), participation in, or involvement with the Statutory Committees, or any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event, or other occurrence, and in all respects such Entities shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding the above, the holders of Ghost Ship Fire Claims and Workers’ Compensation Claims retain the right to assert such Claims against the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with the terms of the Plan; and nothing herein shall be deemed to impose a release by holders of Other Wildfire Claims of insurance claims arising under their insurance policies against holders of Subrogation Wildfire Claims, other than any rights such holder may elect to release as part of any settlement as set forth in Section 4.19(f)(ii) hereof.
(c) Only Consensual Non-Debtor Releases. Except as set forth under Section 4.19(f)(ii) hereof, for the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, nothing in the Plan is intended to, nor shall the Plan be interpreted to, effect a nonconsensual release by a holder of a Claim in favor of a party that is not a Debtor, it being acknowledged that such holder shall be deemed to release a party that is not a


Debtor under the Plan solely to the extent that such holder consensually elects to provide such Plan release in accordance with the opt-in release procedures set forth herein or in any applicable Ballot. The holder of a Claim shall receive the same amount of consideration under the Plan whether or not such holder elects to release a party that is not a Debtor in accordance with the opt-in release procedures set forth herein or in any applicable Ballot.
(d) Release of Liens. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document created pursuant to the Plan, including the Exit Financing Documents, on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable distributions made pursuant to the Plan and, in the case of a Secured Claim, satisfaction in full of the portion of the Secured Claim that is Allowed as of the Effective Date, all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests against any property of the estates shall be fully released and discharged, and all of the right, title, and interest of any holder of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors and their successors and assigns, in each case, without any further approval or order of the Bankruptcy Court and without any action or filing being required to be made by the Debtors.
(e) Waiver of Statutory Limitations on Releases. Each releasing party in each of the releases contained in the Plan (including under Article X of the Plan) expressly acknowledges that although ordinarily a general release may not extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his favor, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the party released, each releasing party has carefully considered and taken into account in determining to enter into the above releases the possible existence of such unknown losses or claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each releasing party expressly waives any and all rights conferred upon it by any statute or rule of law which provides that a release does not extend to claims which the claimant does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the released party, including the provisions of California Civil Code section 1542. The releases contained in this Article X of the Plan are effective regardless of whether those released matters are presently known, unknown, suspected or unsuspected, foreseen or unforeseen.
(f) Injunction Related to Releases and Exculpation. The Confirmation Order shall permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any Person or Entity, whether directly, derivatively, or otherwise, of any Claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, losses, or liabilities released pursuant to this Plan, including, the claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, and liabilities released or exculpated in this Plan. Notwithstanding the above, the holders of Ghost Ship Fire Claims and Workers’ Compensation Claims retain the right to assert such Claims against the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
10.10 Subordination. The allowance, classification, and treatment of all Allowed Claims and 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 Interests 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 (other than any DIP Facility Claims) or Interest in accordance with any contractual, legal, or equitable subordination relating thereto.
10.11 Retention of Causes of Action/Reservation of Rights.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.9 hereof, nothing herein or in the Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or the relinquishment of any rights or Causes of Action that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have or which the Reorganized Debtors may choose to assert on behalf of their respective estates under any provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable nonbankruptcy law, including (i) any and all Claims against any Person or Entity, to the extent such Person or Entity asserts a crossclaim, counterclaim, and/or Claim for setoff which seeks affirmative relief against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or their officers, directors, or representatives and (ii) for the turnover of any property of the Debtors’ estates.


(b) Nothing herein or in the Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any rights or Causes of Action, right of setoff, or other legal or equitable defense that the Debtors had immediately prior to the Petition Date, against or with respect to any Claim left unimpaired by the Plan. The Reorganized Debtors shall have, retain, reserve, and be entitled to assert all such claims, Causes of Action, rights of setoff, and other legal or equitable defenses that they had immediately prior to the Petition Date fully as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, and all of the Reorganized Debtors’ legal and equitable rights with respect to any Claim left unimpaired by the Plan may be asserted after the Confirmation Date to the same extent as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced.
(c) The Reorganized Debtors reserve and shall retain the applicable Causes of Action notwithstanding the rejection of any executory contract or unexpired lease during the Chapter 11 Cases or pursuant to the Plan. In accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any Causes of Action that a Debtor may hold against any Entity shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with the terms hereof. The Reorganized Debtors shall have the exclusive right, authority, and discretion to determine and to initiate, file, prosecute, enforce, abandon, settle, compromise, release, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any such Causes of Action and to decline to do any of the foregoing without the consent or approval of any third party or further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.
10.12 Preservation of Causes of Action. No Entity may rely on the absence of a specific reference in the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action against them as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action against them. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
10.13 Special Provisions for Governmental Units.

The Debtors may revoke, withdraw, or delay consideration of the Plan prior to the Confirmation Date, either entirely or with respect to one or more of the Debtors, and to file subsequent amended plans of reorganization.

12.9 Severability. If, prior to 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, in each case at the election and request of the Debtors may 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 provide that each term and provision hereof, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is (a) valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms; (b) integral to the Plan and may not be deleted or modified except in accordance with the terms of the Plan; and (c) nonseverable and mutually dependent.

duties, and obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof to the extent they would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Exhibit B

Release

The [Debtors](1) and the undersigned party or personal representative (either being referred to herein as “Releasor”), individually and on behalf of the estate of the Releasor agree as follows:

Releasor filed a claim (the “Claim”) against the Debtors arising out of the wildfires listed in Schedule 1 (the “Wildfires”). The Debtors have reviewed the Claim, determined it to be compensable in the amount of $[____], and offered to settle it at this amount (the “Claim Amount”).

By returning this signed Release to the Debtors, the Releasor is agreeing to accept the Debtors’ offer to fully settle the Claim at the Claim Amount, and agreeing that the payment of the Claim Amount constitutes payment in full on the Claim and fully satisfies the Releasor’s losses resulting or arising from the Wildfires.

In consideration for the agreements described in this Release and other good and valuable consideration, and because the Debtors are able to pay and are actually paying the Claim Amount in full, Releasor, on his, her, or its own behalf and on behalf of the Releasor’s heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns, hereby waives and fully releases Releasor’s insurance carriers and past and present holders of insurance subrogation claims against the Debtors (and their direct and indirect assignors), and each of their directors, officers, agents, consultants, financial advisors, employees, attorneys, predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively the “Releasees”) from, any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses, compensation and other amounts, of any nature, known or unknown, contingent or fixed, liquidated or unliquidated, matured or unmatured, that Releasor or any applicable underlying insured may have concerning or alleging that Releasor has not been made whole for its losses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to, the Wildfires. Releasor is not releasing any claims Releasor may have against any Releasee other than the Releasor’s foregoing release of made-whole claims.

Releasor agrees that each Releasee shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Release and may enforce this Release and any rights or remedies set forth herein. Further, Releasor understands that the order confirming the Debtors’ plan of reorganization shall deem each holder of a subrogation claim that is a third party beneficiary of this release to have released Releasor from any claim to Releasor’s recovery from the Debtors on account of the Claim.

TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, RELEASOR HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 AND UNDER ANY OTHER FEDERAL OR STATE LAW OF SIMILAR EFFECT. CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 PROVIDES THAT “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” RELEASOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE OR SHE HAS BEEN ADVISED BY HIS OR HER ATTORNEY(S) CONCERNING, AND IS FAMILIAR WITH, THE EFFECT OF THIS WAIVER. RELEASOR UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER PREVENTS RELEASOR FROM MAKING ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE RELEASEES FOR ADDITIONAL DAMAGES EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED HEREIN. RELEASOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE OR SHE INTENDS THESE CONSEQUENCES.


(1) Debtors herein may be conformed to the name of an eventual settlement trust, as appropriate. References to trust distribution procedures may also be included where necessary.



This Release contains the entire agreement between the parties as to the subject matter hereof. If there is a conflict between this Release and any other prior or contemporaneous agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter of the Release, the Release controls.

The law of the State of California shall govern the meaning of this Release.

Releasor states that he, she, or it is of legal age, with no mental disability of any kind, and is fully and completely competent to execute this Release on Releasor’s own behalf. Releasor further states that this Release has been explained to Releasor and that Releasor knows the contents as well as the effect thereof. Releasor further acknowledges that Releasor executed this Release after consulting with Releasor’s attorney or the opportunity to consult with an attorney.

I am ☐ the Releasor or ☐ the personal representative of the Releasor.

Executed on this [●] day of [●], 20[●].
