  (i)   CORPX and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledge and agree that the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Claim (and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim, as a multiple of the Filed Amount of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Claim) are substantially similar to the claims held by holders of the Calpine Senior Notes.
 
  (ii)   CORPX and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledge and agree that any POR to be filed, confirmed and consummated by CORPX and/or the U.S. Debtors in the U.S. Proceedings shall afford to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim the same treatment (the “ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Treatment”) as shall be afforded to the claims filed against CORPX that arise from the Calpine Senior Notes; provided, however, that the distribution to be made by CORPX in respect of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim pursuant to such POR shall not exceed an amount (the “ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Distribution Amount”) equal to the aggregate of (i) the Filed Amount, (ii) the Postpetition Interest, (iii) the Ad Hoc Committee Fees, and (iv) the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees, in each of the foregoing instances, subject to the foreign exchange adjustment described in Section 3.2(b)(iii).
 
  (iii)   It is acknowledged that certain components of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Distribution Amount are denominated in Canadian Dollars. Without limitation, the indebtedness evidenced by the Canadian ULC1 Notes, including principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and portions of the Ad Hoc Committee Fees and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees relating to the services of Canadian professionals are and will be denominated in Canadian dollars. Such amounts of such components shall be allowed in the U.S. Proceedings and distributions under the POR shall be calculated in U.S. Dollars in an amount yielded by the conversion from Canadian Dollars at the noon spot rate effective on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of distribution under the POR for U.S. currency of Scotiabank, and such conversion shall be performed by CORPX and subject to the approval of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee.
 
  (iv)   CORPX and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledge and agree that the POR shall provide that the Ad Hoc Committee Fees and the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees shall be paid in full from the ULC1 Indenture


 

- 27 -

      Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Distribution Amount by the U.S. Debtors, on the effective date of the POR, in cash (in U.S. Dollars), without the need for application to, or approval of, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court as a “substantial contribution” administrative expense under Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any of such fees that are denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be paid by the U.S. Debtors in U.S. Dollars in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2(b)(iii) hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes under a POR other than distributions (for example, voting), the amount of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim shall be deemed to be the Filed Amount.
  (v)   The ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Proof of Claim shall be allowed in the amount provided in Section 3.2(a) herein, and will be accorded the treatment provided in Section 3.2(b) herein.
  (c)   Classification of ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim under POR.
 
      CORPX, in its discretion, may classify the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim under a POR (i) separately in its own class; (ii) in a class that includes other Claims arising from senior, unsecured, funded indebtedness of CORPX; or (iii) otherwise, consistent with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and other applicable law; provided, however, that, in any of the foregoing cases, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2(b)(ii) hereof, the POR shall provide that the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim shall receive the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Treatment.
3.3   CORPX Support for Substantial Contribution Claim Application.
     In the event that, as a prerequisite to the allowance of the Ad Hoc Committee Fees and/or the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees, as provided for in Section 3.2(a)(ii)(C) or 3.2(a)(ii)(D), as applicable, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court requires or requests that the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee and/or the ULC1 Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, file an application with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court seeking an order allowing the Ad Hoc Committee Fees and/or the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees as an administrative expense for “substantial contribution” under Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, CORPX shall support such application(s) filed by the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee and/or the ULC1 Indenture Trustee and urge the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to grant it (or them) and enter such order.
3.4   Application of Distributions Under POR.
     CORPX, on behalf of itself and the U.S. Debtors, agrees that any distribution received by the ULC1 Indenture Trustee or an agent of CORPX making distributions under the POR, as the case may be, on behalf of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee and/or the ULC1 Noteholders, pursuant to a POR shall be applied as follows: first, to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees and the Ad Hoc Committee Fees, second, to Postpetition Interest, and third, to the Filed Amount. The portion of


 

- 28 -

any such distribution that is allocable to the Ad Hoc Committee Fees shall be remitted by the ULC1 Indenture Trustee, to those ULC1 Noteholders who paid such fees in the first instance in accordance with written instructions to be delivered to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee, by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee. The ULC1 Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on such instructions delivered by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee and shall have no liability for remitting to such ULC1 Noteholders in accordance with such instructions the portion of such distribution that is allocable to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Committee Fees.
3.5   Effect of Settlement Agreement on Proposal of POR and Voting by ULC1 Noteholders.
     For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein constitutes a “lock-up” of the votes of the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders or any other ULC1 Noteholder for a POR. Nothing herein shall limit the ability of CORPX to propose a POR or the right of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee or the ULC1 Noteholders to vote to accept or reject such POR, contest confirmation of such POR, or take any other action that they deem appropriate in the U.S. Proceedings or the CCAA Proceedings that is not inconsistent with this Agreement. Nevertheless, the Parties agree that the amount of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim, the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Treatment, and the right of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the ULC1 Noteholders, to receive, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2(b)(ii) hereof, a distribution under a POR up to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Notes Guarantee Allowed Claim Plan Distribution Amount shall be irrevocably resolved for all purposes in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
3.6   Release of ULC1 Noteholders Under POR.
     CORPX hereby agrees and covenants that any POR to be filed, confirmed and consummated by CORPX and/or the U.S. Debtors in the U.S. Proceedings shall provide that, provided that the POR is accepted by (a) at least two-thirds in amount of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the ULC1 Notes held by ULC1 Noteholders that vote to accept or reject a POR and (b) more than one-half in number of the ULC1 Noteholders that vote to accept or reject a POR, as of the effective date (the “POR Effective Date”) of such POR, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, CORPX, as debtor and debtor in possession, for itself and its officers, directors, employees, members, partners, representatives, attorneys, financial advisors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns (other than the Canadian Debtors and the Canadian Affiliates, but including the estates of the U.S. Debtors established under the Bankruptcy Code), each in their capacity as such (collectively, the “CORPX Releasors”), shall be deemed absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, to release and forever discharge the ULC1 Indenture Trustee and the ULC1 Noteholders, together with their respective officers, directors, employees, members, partners, representatives, attorneys, financial advisors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns, each in their capacity as such (collectively, the “ULC1 Releasees”), of and from any and all claims, demands, allegations, actions, causes of action, suits, debts, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, controversies, losses, damages, judgments, agreements, and warranties of any nature whatsoever, from the beginning of time through and including the POR Effective Date, whether fixed or contingent, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which the CORPX Releasors, or any of them, have, had, claim to have had or


 

- 29 -

hereafter claim to have against the ULC1 Releasees, or any of them, by reason of any act or omission on the part of the ULC1 Releasees, or any of them, occurring on or prior to the POR Effective Date and relating to or arising from the ULC1 Notes, the U.S. Proceedings, the CCAA Proceedings, the POR, the disclosure statement related to the POR, or the preparation, solicitation, confirmation, consummation and implementation of the POR.

  (b)   if and when this Order should be entered by this Court and the companion Order should be entered by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, execute and deliver the Settlement Agreement on behalf of all Holders of the ULC1 Notes upon being

 


 

      advised in writing by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholder Committee that the Settlement Agreement and the Settlement Order are acceptable, in form and substance, to it; and
 
  (c)   execute such other and further documents, instruments and agreements (collectively, the “Ancillary Documents”), and take such other and further action, as the Holders may direct in writing from time to time that reasonably may be necessary or appropriate to give effect to the Direction.
12. The execution, delivery and implementation by the ULC1 Indenture Trustee of the Global Settlement Agreement, and Ancillary Documents, if any, are authorized and approved and are determined to be consistent with and in furtherance of the ULC1 Indenture Trustee’s duties and responsibilities under the ULC1 Indenture, and not prejudicial to the rights of the Holders or the beneficial holders (collectively, the “Beneficial Holders”) of the ULC1 Notes. The ULC1 Indenture Trustee is hereby directed to execute, deliver and implement the Global Settlement Agreement and Ancillary Documents, if any.
13. In consenting to and supporting the Global Settlement Agreement, and in executing and delivering the Global Settlement Agreement and ancillary documents, if any, the ULC1 Indenture Trustee is exercising reasonably, prudently and in good faith its rights and powers vested in it under the ULC1 Indenture and is using the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.
14. Without further order of this Court, and without further action by the parties to the Global Settlement Agreement, the ULC1 Indenture Trustee, its present and former directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, attorneys, accountants, indemnities, or financial advisers and any of their respective successors or assigns (the “Released Parties”) shall be, and hereby are, exculpated and fully, finally and irrevocably released and discharged by all persons and entities, including, without limitation, the Holders and all current, former and future Beneficial Holders, from, and shall not have or incur any liability for, and such persons and entities forever waive, any and all claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, liabilities, causes of action and other assertions of liability whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, forseen or unforeseen, or now existing or hereafter arising in law, equity or otherwise, in any way relating to the Released Parties, including without

 


 

limitation, arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the ULC1 Indenture Trustee’s consent to and support of the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement and its execution, delivery and implementation of the Global Settlement Agreement and Ancillary Documents, if any. To implement the exculpation provided herein, all Persons (as defined in the Global Settlement Agreement) and entities, including, without limitation, the Holders and all current, former and future Beneficial Holders, shall be, and hereby are, permanently and irrevocably enjoined from commencing or continuing in any manner any action or proceeding against the Released Parties, in any way relating to the Released Parties, including without limitation, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Indenture Trustee’s consent to and support of the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement and its execution, delivery and implementation of the Global Settlement Agreement and Ancillary Documents, if any.
15. As of the Effective Date, the ULCI Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the ULC1 Noteholders, shall be afforded one allowed, general, unsecured claim against CORPX’s estate as set forth more particularly in section 3.2 of the Settlement Agreement. CORPX, on behalf of itself and the U.S. Debtors, agrees that any distribution received by the ULCI Indenture Trustee under the POR on behalf of the ULCI Indenture Trustee and/or the ULC1 Noteholders shall be applied as follows: first, to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees and the Ad Hoc Committee Fees, second to the Postpetition Interest, and third to the Filed Amount. The portion of any such distribution that is allocable to the Ad Hoc Committee Fees shall be remitted by the ULCI Indenture Trustee to those ULC1 Noteholders who paid such fees in the first instance in accordance with written instructions to be delivered to the ULCI Indenture Trustee by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee. The ULCI Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on such instructions delivered by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee and shall have no liability in connection with a distribution of such fees in accordance with such instructions.

16. In accordance with the Global Settlement Agreement, the U.S. Debtors shall and are deemed to have irrevocably, fully, finally and forever waived, released and discharged, with prejudice, any and all claims against or in respect of the U.S.$359,770,000 aggregate principal amount of the 81/2% Senior Notes issued by ULC1 owned by Calpine Canada Resource Company

1   Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Motion, or, if not defined therein, in the Settlement Agreement.

 


 

     The Court, having considered the relief requested in the Motion and being duly advised of the premises, hereby finds that:2
     A. On April 25, 2001, ULC1 issued US$1,500 million of 8.5% senior notes due May 1, 2008 (the “8.5% ULC1 Senior Notes”) under an indenture dated as of April 25, 2001 between ULC1 and Wilmington Trust Company, as predecessor trustee (as amended by an Amended and Restated Indenture dated October 16, 2001, the “ULC1 Indenture”).
     B. On October 16, 2001, ULC1 issued an additional US$530 million of 8.5% ULC1 Senior Notes under the ULC1 Indenture (the April 25, 2001 issuance and the October 16, 2001 issuance are collectively referred to as the “8.5% ULC1 Senior Notes”).
     C. On October 18, 2001, ULC1 issued approximately C$200 million of 8.75% senior notes due October 15, 2007 (the “8.75% ULC1 Senior Notes,” and collectively with the 8.5% ULC1 Senior Notes, the “ULC1 Bonds”).
     D. HSBC Bank USA, National Association is the successor indenture trustee under the ULC1 Indenture (the “Indenture Trustee”).

The terms of the Settlement are embodied and memorialized in a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”), a draft of which was attached as Exhibit B to the Motion.
     H. The Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement, as definitively embodied in the Settlement Agreement, are fair, reasonable, and represent a sound exercise of the U.S. Debtors’ business judgment, and are in the best interests of the U.S. Debtors’ estates, creditors, and other stakeholders.
     I. On June 28, 2007, the Canadian Debtors filed a motion (the “Canadian Approval Motion” and together with the Motion, the “Approval Motions”) seeking, among other things, approval of the Settlement Agreement, which definitively embodies the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement described in the Motion.
     J. This Court has core jurisdiction over the U.S. Cases, this Motion and the parties and property affected hereby pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b) and 1334.

     M. Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of each series of the ULC1 Bonds have directed the Indenture Trustee to take the following actions (collectively, the “Direction”):
  (a)   (i) withdraw the Objection of HSBC Bank USA, N.A., as Indenture Trustee, to the U.S. Debtors’ Notice of Motion for an Order Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 105(A) [sic] and 363(B) [sic] and Bankruptcy Rule 9019(A) [sic] that the Indenture Trustee filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court on July 16, 2007 [Docket No. 5292], (ii) withdraw the Brief Regarding Objection of HSBC Bank USA, N.A., as

  (b)   if and when this Order should be entered by the U.S. Court and the Canadian Approval Order (defined below) should be entered by the Canadian Court, execute and deliver the Settlement Agreement on behalf of all Holders of the ULC1 Bonds upon being advised in writing by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholder Committee that the Settlement Agreement and the Settlement Order are acceptable, in form and substance, to it; and
 
  (c)   execute such other and further documents, instruments and agreements (collectively, the “Ancillary Documents”), and take such other and further action, as the Holders may direct in writing from time to time that reasonably may be necessary or appropriate to give effect to the Direction.
     N. As described in the Motion, a draft of the Settlement Agreement was attached as Exhibit B to the Motion. Also as specified in the Motion, the U.S. Debtors posted the Settlement Agreement at http://www.kccllc.net/calpine/canadasettlement on July 9 2007, at least fourteen (14) days before July 24, 2007, the date of the joint hearing held in this matter. Due and adequate notice of the Settlement Agreement has been provided to all parties in interest.
     O. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are Sections 105(a) and 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019(a).
It is hereby ORDERED
     1. The Motion is approved in its entirety.
     2. The Settlement Agreement is approved in its entirety.
     3. The settlements and compromises set forth in the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement, as embodied in the Settlement Agreement, are approved, and the U.S. Debtors and the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the ULC1 Noteholders, are authorized and directed to enter into, execute, deliver and implement the Settlement Agreement, conditional upon the Canadian Court granting an order (the “Canadian Approval Order” and together with this Order, the

5


 

“Approval Orders”) approving the Settlement and authorizing the Canadian Debtors to enter into the Settlement Agreement and to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Settlement Agreement.
     4. The U.S. Debtors and each party to the Settlement Agreement are authorized and directed, from time to time, to enter into the Ancillary Documents or such other and further documents, agreements and instruments, and take such other actions, as may be reasonably required or appropriate to evidence, effectuate, or carry out the intent and purposes of the Settlement Agreement or to perform its or their respective obligations under the Settlement Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
     5. Other than paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 17, 18, 19, 22, 28, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34 and 35 of this Order, which paragraphs are effective upon the entry of this Order, and other than paragraph 27 which is effective on the date of the sale of CCRC Senior Notes, the balance of the paragraphs of this Order shall only be effective upon the date the Canadian Debtors and the U.S. Debtors have executed and filed a certificate with this Court advising that all of the conditions in the Settlement Agreement have been either waived or satisfied (including, without limitation, the condition that the sale of the CCRC Senior Notes (described below) be completed), and advising of the Effective Date (as defined in the Settlement Agreement).
     6. The notice of the Motion and the Settlement Agreement given by the U.S. Debtors is approved, both in form and content, and was timely, fair, and adequate, sufficient and appropriate under the circumstances to (a) apprise interested parties of the Motion, the Canadian Approval Motion and the respective hearings scheduled thereon, and the Settlement Agreement and (b) to afford them an opportunity to present any objections, and no other or further notice is or was required.

6


 

     7. This Order is binding and effective upon the Holders, as well as all current, former, and future beneficial holders of the ULC1 Bonds (the “Beneficial Holders”), and all indenture trustees for the ULC1 Bonds, or predecessors or successors thereto (solely in their capacity as indenture trustees with respect to the ULC1 Bonds and not in any other capacity, including, but not limited to, their capacity as the holder of any claim against the U.S. Debtors or as indenture trustees with respect to any other securities related to the U.S. Debtors or their affiliates).
     8. The compromises and settlements embodied in the Settlement Agreement are fair and reasonable to the U.S. Debtors, the Holders, the Beneficial Holders, and the Indenture Trustee.
     9. The execution, delivery and implementation by the Indenture Trustee of the Settlement Agreement, and the Ancillary Documents, if any, are authorized and approved and are determined to be consistent with and in furtherance of the Indenture Trustee’s duties and responsibilities under the ULC1 Indenture, and not prejudicial to the rights of the Holders or the Beneficial Holders of the ULC1 Bonds.
     10. In consenting to and supporting the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement, and in executing and delivering the Settlement Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, if any, the Indenture Trustee is exercising reasonably, prudently and in good faith its rights and powers vested in it under the ULC1 Indenture and is using the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.
     11. Without further order of this Court, and without further action by the parties to the Settlement Agreement, the Indenture Trustee, its present and former directors, officers,

7


 

employees, agents, representatives, attorneys, accountants, indemnitees, or financial advisers and any of their respective successors or assigns (the “Released Parties”) shall be, and hereby are, exculpated and fully, finally and irrevocably released and discharged by all persons and entities, including, without limitation, the Holders and all current, former and future Beneficial Holders, from, and shall not have or incur any liability for, and such persons and entities forever waive, any and all claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, liabilities, causes of action and other assertions of liability, whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, or now existing or hereafter arising in law, equity or otherwise, in any way relating to the Released Parties, including without limitation, arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the Indenture Trustee’s support of the Settlement and the ULC1 Settlement and its execution, delivery and implementation of the Settlement Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, if any. To implement the exculpation and release provided herein, all Persons and entities, including, without limitation, the Holders and all current, former and future Beneficial Holders, shall be, and hereby are, permanently and irrevocably enjoined from commencing or continuing in any manner any action or proceeding against the Released Parties arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Indenture Trustee’s actions taken in connection with the Direction and its execution, delivery and implementation of the Settlement Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, if any.
     12. The Canadian Debtors, for themselves and their successors, assigns, affiliates (other than the U.S. Debtors or their affiliates), and anyone claiming through them (including, without limitation, creditors of the Canadian Debtors claiming through the Canadian Debtors) (each in their capacity as such) shall and are deemed to have irrevocably, fully, finally, and forever waived, released, and discharged any and all Claims against the U.S. Debtors and their

8


 

affiliates (other than the Canadian Debtors and Calpine’s Canadian affiliates), successors and assigns, and estates, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, save and except only as specifically provided for otherwise in the Settlement Agreement.
     13. Except only as specifically provided for otherwise in the Settlement Agreement, distributions on all of the Claims listed on Exhibit A and Exhibit B of the Settlement Agreement shall only be made after distributions have been made on account of all other Claims against the applicable Canadian Debtor or U.S. Debtor.
     14. All claims (other than those specifically provided for in the Settlement Agreement) by the U.S. Debtors and Canadian Debtors, and their respective successors, assigns, applicable affiliates, and anyone claiming through them (including without limitation creditors of the respective Canadian and U.S. Debtors) (all in their capacity as such), against the other, whether or not asserted in the CCAA Proceedings, the U.S. Proceedings or other court proceedings, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, including claims for oppression or similar statutory or common law relief, are hereby barred forever.
     15. In the event that the entitlement of the ULC2 Indenture Trustee and/or the ULC2 Noteholders to ULC2 Accrued Interest, fees incurred in the Harbert Litigation, and/or to a “make whole amount,” has not been resolved by the date distributions are to be made from CCRC, CCRC shall establish and fund, as appropriate, an escrow account or other reserve for the payment of such amounts, if any, as may be subsequently determined by this Court to be payable in accordance with the terms of the ULC2 Indenture and related agreements.

9


 

     16. The claims included in Exhibit G to the Settlement Agreement are hereby dismissed with prejudice or deemed to have been withdrawn with prejudice.
     17. All of the HSBC U.S. Marker Claims and all of the HSBC Canadian Marker Claims are hereby dismissed with prejudice or deemed to have been withdrawn with prejudice.
     18. The U.S. Debtors are authorized and directed to take any and all steps to perform any and all acts necessary or reasonably requested by CCRC to implement or assist CCRC in the sale of the ULC1 Bonds held by CCRC (the “CCRC Senior Notes”), provided, however, that no such acts shall cause or be deemed to cause the sale of the CCRC Senior Notes to be, or have been done, “by” any of the U.S. Debtors for purposes of any applicable securities laws, nor shall any U.S. Debtor be deemed to be a participant, issuer or control person with respect to the sale of the CCRC Senior Notes for purposes of any applicable securities laws.
     19. Without limiting the generality of the preceding paragraph, Calpine Corporation is specifically authorized and directed in connection with CCRC’s sale of the CCRC Senior Notes to:
          (i) execute the Guarantee attached to the 144A Global Security; and
          (ii) execute the Guarantee attached to the Regulation S Global Security;
provided, however, that any obligations of Calpine Corporation under the Guarantees shall remain prepetition liabilities, and such execution, even though occurring after the Petition Date, shall not convert Calpine Corporation’s prepetition liabilities under the Guarantees into postpetition liabilities, administrative expense claims under section 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, or administrative claims or restructuring claims under the CCAA.
     20. Calpine Corporation’s prepetition obligations under the Guarantee Agreement are hereby affirmed, including in respect of the 144A Global Security, the Regulation S Global Security and the CCRC Senior Notes.

10


 

     21. All persons and entities are forever barred, estopped and permanently enjoined from commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding, whether in law or equity, in any judicial, administrative, arbitral or other proceeding, with respect to any claim or cause of action against any of the U.S. Debtors and/or the Indenture Trustee in relation to or arising from the sale of the CCRC Senior Notes by CCRC, and any of the transactions associated therewith, including without limitation, the authentication and delivery of the Guarantees attached to the 144A Global Security and the Regulation S Global Security.
     22. The Intercompany Claims outlined in Exhibit D to the Settlement Agreement are deemed allowed, general, non-subordinated, unsecured claims against the applicable Canadian Debtor(s) in the CCAA proceedings and U.S. Debtor(s) in the U.S. Cases, as the case may be, and shall be treated the same as all other allowed non-subordinated, general, unsecured claims against the applicable Canadian Debtor(s) or U.S. Debtor(s), as the case may be, under any plan of arrangement sanctioned in the CCAA Proceedings (“POA”) or plan of reorganization in the U.S. Cases (“POR”), provided, however, that Claim No. 4448 of CCRC against QCH, set forth on Exhibit D of the Settlement Agreement, which includes CCRC’s claim against the U.S. Debtors in respect of the liability of CCRC for applicable non-resident withholding taxes related to the intercompany advance that is the basis of Claim No. 4448, shall be satisfied through the granting to CCRC of an allowed non-subordinated general unsecured Claim (not subject to setoff, counterclaim or defense) against QCH in the amount of U.S.$232 million (the “CCRC Claim”), which shall be guaranteed in full by Calpine Corporation (“CORPX”). The CCRC Claim is hereby granted and allowed; provided further that in no event shall distributions to CCRC under the POR on account of the CCRC Claim (or any guarantee thereof) exceed C$181,431,000 (plus an amount equal to the aggregate of all liabilities and obligations of CCRC

11


 

for tax penalties and interest, if any, arising from the non-resident withholding taxes described in Section 2.3(c)(iii) of the Settlement Agreement).
     23. The CCRC Claim shall be calculated for distribution purposes in U.S. dollars in an amount yielded by the conversion from Canadian dollars at the noon spot rate effective as of the date of confirmation of the POR for Canadian currency posted at Scotiabank and such conversion shall be calculated and performed in consultation with the Monitor.
     24. The rights of the U.S. Debtors with respect to the treatment of any allowed Intercompany Claims of the U.S. Debtors under any POA (including with respect to any possible substantive consolidation of some or all of the Canadian Debtors) and the rights of the Canadian Debtors with respect to the treatment of any allowed Intercompany Claims of the Canadian Debtors under any POR (including, with respect to any possible substantive consolidation of some or all of the U.S. Debtors) are fully preserved.
     25. As of the Effective Date, the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the ULC1 Noteholders, shall be afforded one allowed, general, unsecured claim against CORPX’s estate as set forth more particularly in section 3.2 of the Settlement Agreement. CORPX, on behalf of itself and the U.S. Debtors, agrees that any distribution received by the Indenture Trustee under the POR on behalf of the Indenture Trustee and/or the ULC1 Noteholders shall be applied as follows: first, to the ULC1 Indenture Trustee Fees and the Ad Hoc Committee Fees, second to the Postpetition Interest, and third to the Filed Amount. The portion of any such distribution that is allocable to the Ad Hoc Committee Fees shall be remitted by the Indenture Trustee to those ULC1 Noteholders who paid such fees in the first instance in accordance with written instructions to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee. The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on such instructions

12


 

delivered by counsel to the Ad Hoc ULC1 Noteholders Committee and shall have no liability in connection with a distribution of such fees in accordance with such instructions.
     26. The ULC2 Indenture Trustee shall be granted one allowed, general unsecured claim in the U.S. Proceedings against CORPX in the amount of U.S.$361,660,821.40, which equals the principal and unpaid accrued interest due in respect of the ULC2 Senior Notes as of December 20, 2005 (the “ULC2 Indenture Trustee’s Allowed Guarantee Claim”). Any recovery by the ULC2 Indenture Trustee shall come first from distributions from ULC2 in the CCAA Proceedings and, to the extent of any deficiency, second from distributions in the U.S. Proceedings. Any recovery by the ULC2 Indenture Trustee from ULC2 will be applied as follows: first, to Reasonable Costs; second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the ULC2 Senior Notes at the contract rate (including interest accrued and unpaid after the commencement of the CCAA Proceedings and through the date on which the Allowed ULC2 Indenture Trustee Claim is satisfied in full (including interest compounded semi–annually)); and third, to principal owing in respect of the ULC2 Senior Notes. Any recovery received by the ULC2 Indenture Trustee from ULC2 will not reduce the amount of the ULC2 Indenture Trustee’s Allowed Guarantee Claim and there shall be no reallocation of payments received in the CCAA Proceedings of Reasonable Costs or interest to payment of principal in respect of the Allowed ULC2 Indenture Trustee Claim; provided, however, the ULC2 Indenture Trustee shall not be entitled to actually receive any distributions under or through the POR in excess of any portion of the ULC2 Indenture Trustee’s Allowed Guarantee Claim that remains unpaid after any distributions are made on the Allowed ULC2 Indenture Trustee Claim in the CCAA Proceedings (and after such distributions are allocated as provided in the first paragraph of the Settlement Agreement), unless the POR provides for the payment of postpetition interest on similarly situated claims, in which

13


 

case the ULC2 Indenture Trustee’s Allowed Guarantee Claim shall include a claim in respect of postpetition interest.
     27. In accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the U.S. Debtors’ Partial Objection to Proof of Claim No. 5742, relating to the CCRC Senior Notes [Docket No. 3667], is withdrawn with prejudice, and the U.S. Debtors are hereby deemed to have irrevocably waived their right to assert any other claims and/or defenses in respect of the CCRC Senior Notes against CCRC or any prior or subsequent owner of the CCRC Senior Notes (including, without limitation, any Bond Differentiation Claims).
     28. In accordance with the Settlement Agreement, (a) the U.S. Debtors waive the right to challenge any alleged guarantee of the Guaranteed Claims (as that term is defined in the Settlement Agreement); (b) this Court shall grant comity to the determination by the Canadian Court (and any Canadian appellate court) of the validity and quantum of any Guaranteed Claim; and (c) claims filed in the U.S. Cases on account of any Guaranteed Claims will be allowed, as general unsecured non-subordinated claims against the U.S. Debtor that is the guarantor, in the U.S. Cases in the amount of the Guaranteed Claim as determined by the Canadian Court, without any further claim adjudication process or order of this Court and without any right of any party in interest to challenge the validity or quantum of such allowed Guaranteed Claims; provided, however, that holders of the Guaranteed Claims shall not be entitled to actually receive any distributions under or through the POR (as that term is defined in the Settlement Agreement) in excess of any actual unpaid portion of such Guaranteed Claims, unless the POR provides for the payment of postpetition interest on other general unsecured non-subordinated claims, in which case the Guaranteed Claims shall include postpetition interest.

14


 

     29. CORPX is empowered and authorized by each of the entities of Calpine U.S. to act on their behalf in connection with the execution of the Settlement Agreement and the performance of the terms, conditions and obligations of the Settlement Agreement, and shall remain so empowered and authorized for the duration of the Settlement Agreement.
     30. The U.S. Debtors and the Canadian Debtors are hereby relieved of any further duties or obligations to negotiate and/or present to this Court a “Canada-U.S. Claims-Specific Protocol” (as that term is defined in the Motion of Canadian Debtors for Entry of an Order Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105(a) Approving Cross-Border Court-to-Court Protocol [Docket No. 4242]); provided, however, that the U.S. Debtors and Canadian Debtors shall confer in good faith to determine whether any remaining claims unresolved by the Settlement Agreement warrant the approval of a claims-specific protocol by this Court and the Canadian Court.
     31. Except as may be specifically provided herein, the Canadian Debtors shall retain any administrative expense priority claims that have been, or may in the future be, asserted against the U.S. Debtors in the U.S. Cases pursuant to Section 503(b) or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code for postpetition goods or services rendered to the U.S. Debtors (“U.S. Administrative Claims”); provided, however, that the U.S. Debtors reserve their rights with respect to the allowance of any such U.S. Administrative Claims.
     32. The Stipulation and Agreed Order Approving Interim Resolution of Certain Disputes Relating to the Greenfield Energy Centre [Docket No. 4345] (the “U.S. Interim Resolution Order”) is hereby amended to provide that the terms of the Settlement Agreement shall constitute full satisfaction of the Administrative Claim (as that term is defined in the U.S. Interim Resolution Order) and that no further amounts shall be due and owing now or in the future under the U.S. Interim Resolution Order.

15


 

     33. The failure to mention any provision of the Settlement, the ULC1 Settlement, or the Settlement Agreement in this Order shall not impair its efficacy, it being the intent and effect of this Order that the Settlement, the ULC1 Settlement, and the Settlement Agreement are approved in all respects and all relief contemplated by the Settlement, the ULC1 Settlement and the Settlement Agreement is hereby granted.
     34. This Order is granted in conjunction with, is complementary to and is a companion Order to the Order of the Court of Queen’s Bench granted in the CCAA Proceedings and is to be read and interpreted in a manner that is not inconsistent with, and in furtherance of, the provisions of such Court of Queen’s Bench Order. Any determination by either this Court or the Canadian Court contemplated by the Settlement Agreement shall be given comity by the other Court.
     35. The U.S. Debtors shall continually consult with the Committees and the Second Lien Committee (as that term is defined in the Second Amended Final Order Authorizing Use of Cash Collateral and Granting Adequate Protection [Docket No.881] made in these Chapter 11 Cases (as subsequently amended by orders of this Court, the “Cash Collateral Order”)) with respect to the implementation of the Settlement Agreement, including without limitation consultation with respect to the terms and process of the CCRC ULC1 Note Sale as it develops and the order accompanying such sale, pursuant to Section 2.4(c) of the Settlement Agreement, and with respect to any waivers of conditions under Section 2.9 of the Settlement Agreement.
     36. In those instances where the Settlement Agreement requires the approval or consent of the U.S. Debtors before an action can be taken, such approval or consent shall only be given by the U.S. Debtors after prior consultation and dialogue with the Committees and the Second Lien Committee, with reasonably sufficient notice, which shall be not less than five (5)

16


 

business days, so that the Committees and the Second Lien Committee can make an informed decision regarding the matter. In any such case the U.S. Debtors shall share with the Committees and the Second Lien Committee, in advance, any documents and analyses received relevant to the action to be taken to which the U.S. Debtors propose to consent or approve.
     37. In the event the U.S. and Canadian Debtors intend to settle any of the Canadian Guaranteed Claims pursuant to Section 2.3(f)(iv) of the Settlement Agreement, the U.S. Debtors shall consult with the Committees and the Second Lien Committee regarding any such proposed settlement and provide to the Committees and the Second Lien Committee ten business days’ prior written notice of any such proposed settlement. If after such consultation and notice any of the Committees or the Second Lien Committee believe that such proposed settlement is not a reasonable exercise of the U.S. Debtors’ business judgment, they may deliver to the U.S. Debtors with a copy to counsel to the Committees and counsel to the Second Lien Committee, written notice of such objection to the U.S. Debtors’ entry into the proposed settlement. In the event that one or both of the Committees and/or the Second Lien Committee deliver such written objection, the U.S. Court shall determine, on an expedited schedule, whether the settlement is a reasonable exercise of the U.S. Debtors’ business judgment; provided, however, that such schedule shall allow all parties in interest, including the Committees and the Second Lien Committee, to object.
     38. In the event that any Canadian Guaranteed Claims are litigated pursuant to Section 2.8(a)(iv) of the Settlement Agreement, the U.S. Debtors shall consult with the Second Lien Committee regarding such litigation and provide such materials as are reasonably necessary to allow the Second Lien Committee to monitor such proceedings.
     39. To the extent that any cash and other property of the Canadian Debtors paid, transferred or distributed by the Canadian Debtors to the U.S. Debtors (including, without

17


 

limitation, any amounts to be distributed to CORPX on account of the Allowed U.S. Administrative Charge as defined in Section 2.4(e) of the Settlement Agreement and provided for in paragraph 34 of the Order of the Canadian Court made on the Canadian Approval Motion of the Canadian Debtors) and all cash and other property to which the U.S. Debtors are entitled from or in respect of the Canadian Debtors pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (collectively, the “Transferred Property”) would have been included in either (a) the Calpine Corp. Collateral (as such term is defined in the Cash Collateral Order); or (b) the collateral subject to the Second Replacement Liens (as such term is defined in the Cash Collateral Order) absent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by and the implementation of the terms of the Settlement Agreement (including the implementation of those terms in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6 thereof), the entitlement of the Calpine Second Lien Holders (as such term is defined in the Cash Collateral Order) to second priority liens on and security interests in, and Second Replacement Liens (as such term is defined in the Cash Collateral Order) on, such Transferred Property shall be and remain unaffected and unimpaired.
     40. If, pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, and, in particular, section 2.6 thereof, the U.S. Debtors intend to transfer property of their estates to a Canadian Debtor prior to the effective date of a confirmed plan of reorganization that results in a net depletion of assets of the U.S. Debtors’ estates, the U.S. Debtors will provide the Creditors’ Committee and the Second Lien Committee with reasonably sufficient notice of such transfer. If after such notice either the Creditors’ Committee or the Second Lien Committee believes that such transfer is not a reasonable exercise of the U.S. Debtors’ business judgment, either the Creditors’ Committee or Second Lien Committee may object in writing to the proposed transfer, in which

18


 

case the U.S. Court shall determine on an expedited basis whether such transfer is a reasonable exercise of the U.S. Debtors’ business judgment.
     41. The Committees and the Second Lien Committee shall notify the U.S. Debtors as soon as practicable of any failure to implement any term of the Settlement Agreement, and the U.S. Debtors shall forthwith take appropriate action in response to such notification.
     42. The confirmation order of the POR in the U.S. Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases shall incorporate this Order and the Settlement Agreement.
     43. Except as may be specifically provided herein, notwithstanding the possible applicability of Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h), 7062, 9014 or otherwise, the terms and conditions of this Order shall be immediately effective and enforceable upon its entry.
     44. All time periods set forth in this Order shall be calculated in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a).
     45. The requirement set forth in Rule 9013-1(b) of the Local Rules that any motion or other request for relief be accompanied by a memorandum of law is hereby deemed satisfied by the contents of the Motion or otherwise waived.
     46. To the extent that this Order is inconsistent with any prior order or pleading with respect to the Motion in these cases, the terms of this Order shall govern.
     47. The Court retains jurisdiction with respect to all matters arising from or related to the implementation of this Order.
