16



 

In addition, the Bank shall receive (i) the Net Recoveries received by the Litigation Trust on account of the Recovery Rights, and (ii) the Residual Proceeds from the Liquidating Trust.

 

C.            Class 3 Claim of Sun Capital

 

Class 3 is unimpaired.  To the extent that the Allowed Class 3 Claims are not paid in full from the Administrative Claims Fund, each holder of an Allowed Secured Claim in Class 3 shall receive payment in Cash on the Effective Date of the amount of such unpaid Allowed Secured Claim, or shall be paid according to such terms that are mutually acceptable to Sun Capital and the Debtor.  The approximate amount of the Sun Capital claim is $2.6 million.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan, all of Sun Capital’s rights and its first priority security interest and liens (including with respect to the separate escrow account constituting the Resource Proceeds), under the factoring documents, all orders of this Court effective as of this date and any subsequent order of the Court, will be preserved until Sun Capital receives payment in Cash in full satisfaction of its Claims.  In the event, that the Debtors and Sun Capital cannot agree to the amount of Sun Capital’s Allowed Claim prior to the Effective Date, the Debtors will establish a separate reserve escrow on account thereof into which will be deposited Cash in an amount equal to the amount of Sun Capital’s Claim as asserted by Sun Capital (or such other amount as may be determined by Order of the Bankruptcy Court), and Sun Capital’s liens will attach to such escrow funds.  Until Sun Capital receives Cash payment in full satisfaction of its Allowed Claim, fees and charges provided for in the factoring documents shall continue to accrue and will be added to the amount of Sun Capital’s Claim.

 

D.            Class 4 Claims of Other Secured Creditors

 

Class 4 is unimpaired.  On the Effective Date of the Plan, the Liquidating Agent shall surrender to the holders of Allowed Secured Claims in Class 4 such property of the Estate as may be security and collateral therefor.

 

17



 

To the extent that a Creditor in Class 4 does not hold an Allowed Secured Claim, such Claim, if it becomes an Allowed Claim, shall be included in Class 7.

 

E.             Class 5 Priority Claims

 

Class 5 is unimpaired.  Except to the extent that the holder of such Claim agrees to a different treatment, the Liquidating Trust shall pay in Cash on the Effective Date to each holder of an Allowed Priority Claim in Class 5 the principal amount of such Allowed Claim, without interest.

 

F.             Class 6.  (Intentionally Omitted)

 

G.            Class 7 General Unsecured Claims

 

Class 7 is impaired.  The amount of Disputed Claims that shall be Allowed Claims shall be determined by the Court.  Except to the extent that the holder of such Claim agrees to a different treatment, the Liquidating Trust shall pay in Cash on the Effective Date to each holder of an Allowed Claim in Class 7 such Creditor’s Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining from the $930,000 that the Bank agreed to set aside for the payment of Allowed General Unsecured Claims pursuant to sections IV.A. and IV.B. of the Plan, after payment of the expenses and other obligations of the Liquidating Trust (not directly related to the initiation or prosecution of objections to Disputed Claims other than those in Class 7) including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Liquidating Agent and the fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals retained by the Liquidating Agent.  Each holder of an Allowed Claim in Class 7 shall receive the lesser of:  (a) an amount equal to such Creditor’s Allowed Claim in Class 7, or (b) such Creditor’s Pro Rata share of the available sum of monies to be distributed to all holders of Allowed Claims in Class 7 by the Liquidating Trust after payment of the fees and expenses of the Liquidating Trust as provided for herein.  The payments to be made to the holders of Allowed Claims in Class 7 as set forth in this paragraph shall be the sole source of distributions to holders of Allowed Claims in Class 7.

 

18



 

To the extent that the Bank has an Allowed Class 7 Claim (because insufficient collateral exists to secure the Secured Claims of the Bank and/or NCFE, or the liens, security interests, or other encumbrances that are senior in priority to the Secured Claims exceed the fair market value of the collateral), such Claims shall be subordinated to the payment of other Allowed Claims in Class 7 as provided for in the Plan.(1)

 

H.            Class 8 Convenience Class Claims

 

Class 8 is unimpaired.  Except to the extent that the holder of such Claim agrees to a different treatment, the Liquidating Trust shall pay in Cash on the Effective Date to each holder of an Allowed Convenience Class Claim in Class 8 the principal amount of such Allowed Claim, without interest.

 

I.              Class 9 Subordinated Claims

J.             Class 10 Inter-Debtor Claims

 

Class 10 is impaired.  Holders of Allowed Claims in Class 10 will receive no distribution under the Plan on account of such Claims.

(1) The Bank’s agreement to subordinate its General Unsecured Claim as provided for herein is only effective if the Plan is confirmed by a Final Order.  Nothing in the Plan or the Disclosure Statement shall be construed as acknowledging or authorizing the subordination of the Bank’s General Unsecured Claims in the event the Plan is not confirmed.

If the holder of a Disputed Claim and the Liquidating Agent agree to a settlement of such holder’s Disputed Claim for an amount not in excess of the face amount

 

21

7.             Distributions.  Distributions shall be made in accordance with the Plan, the Confirmation Order, and the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

 

(a)           Reserve for Disputed Claims.  For purposes of calculating Pro Rata distributions or any other distributions to be made under the Plan to holders of Allowed Claims, the calculation of the total Allowed Claims shall be computed as if all Disputed Claims then pending were allowed in the full amount thereof.

 

(b)           Initial Distribution Date.  Except for payments required to be made on the Effective Date in accordance with other sections of the Plan, the Liquidating Agent shall make the initial distribution from the Liquidating Trust at such time as the Liquidating Agent, in the exercise of his or her discretion, deems appropriate, provided that in the reasonable discretion and judgment of the Liquidating Agent, there shall be in the Liquidating Trust Cash in an amount sufficient to render feasible a distribution after making reasonable reserves to pay the expenses (including, but not limited to, federal

 

23



 

income taxes and withholding taxes, if any, or in objecting to Claims), debts, charges, liabilities, and obligations of the Liquidating Trust.

 

(c)           Allowance of Claims.  Distributions shall be made with respect to any Disputed Claim which becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date on or as soon as practicable after the date on which each Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.  The amount of any distribution shall be calculated, on a Pro Rata basis, so that each Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim receives an initial distribution equal to the total percentage distributions made prior to the date of such allowance on account of other Allowed Claims under the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

 

(d)           Subsequent Distribution Dates.  After the Initial Distribution Date, unless otherwise directed in the Plan or a post-Confirmation Date Final Order , the Liquidating Agent shall make additional distributions at such time as the Liquidating Agent, in the exercise of his or her discretion, deems appropriate, provided that in the reasonable discretion and judgment of the Liquidating Agent, there shall be in the Liquidating Trust Cash in an amount sufficient to render feasible a distribution after making reasonable reserves to pay the expenses (including, but not limited to, federal income taxes and withholding taxes, if any, and all expenses and fees incurred in objecting to Claims), debts, charges, liabilities, and obligations of the Liquidating Trust.

 

(e)           Unclaimed Property.  Unclaimed Property that shall remain unclaimed at the end of 180 days following the date of an attempted distribution shall be reallocated to other Creditors and redistributed by the Liquidating Trust.  After the expiration of 180 days following the date of an attempted distribution, each Claim with respect to Unclaimed Property shall be treated as if it had been disallowed in its entirety and all right, title and interest therein shall vest in the Liquidating Trust for redistribution in the order and priority established in the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement.  Until the expiration of 180 days following the date on which the distribution of the Unclaimed

 

24



 

Property has been attempted, Unclaimed Property shall be delivered upon presentation of proper proof by a holder of its entitlement thereto.

 

(f)            Surrender.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive any distribution under the Plan in respect of such Allowed Claim until such holder has surrendered to the Liquidating Trust any promissory note or other document(s) evidencing such Allowed Claim, or until evidence of loss and indemnity satisfactory to the Liquidating Agent, in his/her/its sole and absolute discretion, shall have been delivered to the Liquidating Trust in the case of any note or other document(s) alleged to be lost, stolen or destroyed.

 

(g)           Final Distribution.  Pursuant to the Plan, the Residual Proceeds from the Liquidating Trust shall be paid to the Bank as soon as practical after (a) the liquidation of all of the assets of the Estate, (b) the payment of all of the expenses and other obligations of the Liquidating Trust including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the Liquidating Agent and the fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals retained by the Liquidating Agent, and (c) the payment of all Allowed Tax Claims, Allowed Priority Claims, Allowed Administrative Claims and Allowed Claims in Class 7 pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

 

(h)           Exemption From Certain Transfer Taxes.  Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of a security, or the making or delivery of an instrument of transfer under a plan confirmed under section 1129 of the Code, may not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax.  Pursuant to section 1146(c) of the Code, no transfer to or from the Liquidating Trust under the Plan, shall be subject to any stamp tax, transfer tax or similar tax.

 

(i)            Estimation of Unliquidated Disputed Claims.  As to any unliquidated Disputed Claim, including Claims based upon rejection of executory contracts or leases, or other Disputed Claims, the Court, upon motion by the Liquidating Trust, may estimate the amount of the Disputed Claim and may determine an amount

 

25



 

sufficient to reserve for any such Claim.  Any Entity whose Disputed Claim is so estimated shall have recourse only against the Liquidating Trust and against no other assets or person (including the Liquidating Agent), and in any case only in an amount not to exceed the estimated amount of such Entity’s Claim, even if such Entity’s Claim, as finally allowed, exceeds the maximum estimated amount thereof.

 

(j)            Certain Tax Matters.  For all federal and state income tax purposes, the Debtor shall report and treat the transfer of property conveyed to the Liquidating Trust as a sale of such assets at a selling price equal to the fair market value of such assets on the date of the transfer.  For all such purposes, the transferred assets shall be deemed to have the fair market values determined by the Liquidating Agent in his/her/its absolute and sole discretion, and such valuations shall be used by the Debtor and the Liquidating Trust for all federal and state income tax purposes.  The Liquidating Trust shall be deemed to be a “disputed ownership fund” within the meaning of Proposed Treasury Regulation section 1.468B-9.  The Debtor shall irrevocably make and constitute the Liquidating Agent as its attorney- in-fact to prepare, make, and file any statement referenced in Proposed Treasury Regulation section 1.468B-9, or, at the election of the Liquidating Agent, shall prepare, make, and file such statement(s) pursuant to instructions issued by the Liquidating Agent.  Any such statement shall be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Liquidating Agent’s determination of the fair market values of the property conveyed to the Liquidating Agent.

 

(k)           The Disbursing Agent.  The Liquidating Agent shall serve as the disbursing agent, without bond, for purposes of making transfers and payments under the Plan.

 

D.            The Litigation Trust

 

1.             Purpose of the Litigation Trust.  The Litigation Trust shall be deemed established on the effective date of the CDSI Plan pursuant to the terms of the CDSI Plan and the Litigation Trust Agreement.  The purpose of the Litigation Trust is, among other

2.             Transfers of the Recovery Rights to the Litigation Trust.  On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Recovery Rights shall be irrevocably assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Litigation Trust.

4.             Management and Powers of the Litigation Trust.  After the Effective Date, the affairs of the Litigation Trust and all assets held or controlled by the Litigation Trust shall be managed under the direction of the Litigation Trust Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Litigation Trust Agreement.  The Bank shall select the Litigation Trust Trustee.  The powers of the Litigation Trust Trustee shall include, without limitation:   (a) the initiation and prosecution in every capacity, including as representative of the Estates under section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Code, of the Recovery Rights assigned to the Litigation Trust; (b) the compromise and settlement of any of the Recovery Rights assigned to the Litigation Trust; (c) effecting distributions of Net Recoveries on the Recovery Rights to the Bank; (d) participation in any post- Confirmation Date motions to amend or modify the Plan or the Litigation Trust Agreement, or appeals from the Confirmation Order as it relates to the Litigation Trust; and (e) participation in actions to enforce or interpret the Plan as it relates to the Litigation Trust.  The management and other powers of the Litigation Trust and the rights of all parties with respect to the Litigation Trust and the Litigation Trust

In exchange for the treatment of the Debtor’s claims asserted in the bankruptcy cases of the NCFE Released Parties and the TLC Debtors, and the foregoing releases, and with the exception of (i) the Bank’s claims against, and equity interests in, the TLC Debtors assigned by the Bank to the NCFE Released Parties under the settlement agreement between the Bank and the NCFE Released Parties referred to below and (ii) the obligations of the Bank under that settlement agreement, the NCFE Released Parties and the TLC Debtors release the Bank, the Debtor, and the Estate, together with their respective predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively the “Released Parties”) of, from, and with respect to any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, debts, demands, suits, disputes, breaches of contracts, controversies, damages, accounts, disgorgement rights, executions, and any claims or other remedies, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, past, present or future, asserted or unasserted, contingent or liquidated, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, at law or in equity, which the NCFE Released Parties or the TLC Debtors ever had or now have, claim to have had, or hereafter can, shall or may claim to have against the Released Parties.

 

In exchange for the treatment of the Claims of the NCFE Released Parties and the TLC Debtors under the Plan, the treatment of the Debtor’s claims asserted in the bankruptcy

 

32



 

cases of the NCFE Released Parties and the TLC Debtors, and the foregoing releases, and with the exception of (i) the Bank’s claims against, and equity interests in, the TLC Debtors assigned by the Bank to the NCFE Released Parties under the settlement agreement between the Bank and the NCFE Released Parties referred to below and (ii) the obligations of the NCFE Released Parties under that settlement agreement, the Bank releases the NCFE Released Parties and the TLC Debtors, together with their respective predecessors, successors and assigns, of, from, and with respect to any and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, debts, demands, suits, disputes, breaches of contracts, controversies, damages, accounts, disgorgement rights, executions, and any claims or other remedies, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, past, present or future, asserted or unasserted, contingent or liquidated, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, at law or in equity, which the Bank ever had or now has, claim to have had, or hereafter can, shall or may claim to have against the NCFE Released Parties, the TLC Debtors, and their respective predecessors, successors and assigns; provided however that the release by the Bank of the TLC Debtors and their predecessors, successors and assigns shall not be effective until confirmation of a chapter 11 plan in the cases of the TLC Debtors that is consistent with the Settlement Agreement and Release between the Bank and the NCFE debtors that was previously approved by the Bankruptcy Court in the NCFE debtors’ cases.

 

Confirmation of the Plan shall constitute Court approval of the compromises reflected herein.  The releases contained in this section shall become effective on the Effective Date.

 

B.            Limitation of Liability.  Neither (a) the Debtor, nor any of its employees, officers, or directors employed as of the date of the Plan, (b) the Liquidating Agent, (c) the

of the Plan; provided, however, that nothing contained herein or elsewhere in the Plan shall be deemed to affect the right of any entity to exercise, on or after the Effective Date, any right left unaffected by section 553(a) of the Code to set off a debt owing by such entity against the Debtor that arose prior to the Petition Date.

 

As of the Effective Date, all Entities that have held, currently hold or may hold any claims, obligations, suits, judgment, damages, demands, debts, rights, causes of action or liabilities that are released pursuant to the Plan will be permanently enjoined from taking any of the following actions against any Entity released pursuant to the Plan or its property on account of such released claim, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, causes of action or liabilities:  (a) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding; (b) enforcing, attaching, collecting or recovering in any manner any judgment, award, decree or order; (c) creating, perfecting or enforcing any lien or encumbrance; (d) asserting a setoff or right of subrogation of any kind against any debt, liability or obligation due to any released entity; and (e) 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; provided, however, that nothing contained herein or elsewhere in the Plan shall be deemed to affect the right of any entity to exercise, on or after the Effective Date, any right left unaffected by section 553(a) of the Bankruptcy Code to set off a debt owing by such entity to the Debtor (or its assignee under the Plan) that arose prior to the Petition Date against an Allowed Claim of such entity against the Debtor that arose prior to the Petition Date.

 

By accepting distribution pursuant to the Plan, each holder of an Allowed Claim receiving distributions pursuant to the Plan will be deemed to have specifically consented to the injunctions set forth in this section.

 

D.            Modification.  The Debtor reserves the right to amend or modify the Plan prior to its confirmation, at all times consistent with and in accordance with section 1127 of the Code.

 

35



 

E.             Plan of Reorganization.  For income tax purposes, the Plan shall constitute a plan of reorganization.

G.            Headings Do Not Control.  In interpreting the Plan, the headings of individual sections are provided for convenience only, and are not intended to control over the text of any section.
