the provisions of the Plan, all right, title, and interest of the Debtor and its Estate in and to all of

purpose by the liquidation of the Liquidating Trust Assets and the distribution of the Net
Proceeds; or (b) five (5) years after the Effective Date. Every effort shall be made to ensure that

provisions of the Plan and Confirmation Order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the
Trustee shall have been unable, after continuing reasonable efforts, to sell or otherwise dispose
of and realize upon the Liquidating Trust Assets in the initial five (5) year term of the

of Allowed Claims provided in the Plan. In determining whether there are any Net Proceeds
available for distribution, the Trustee may, in his discretion, give due consideration to the
possibility that there may be Claims which are not yet allowed by the Bankruptcy Court or are
otherwise not yet due and payable. The Trustee shall make continuing efforts to dispose of the

Liquidating Trust Assets, to make prompt and timely distributions, and to avoid undue
prolongation of the duration of the Liquidating Trust.
2.5 Due Authorization by Claimants; Provisions Regarding Trusteeā€™s Distributions.
2.5.1 Each and every claimant who receives any distribution provided for in the
Plan, and herein, warrants that he, she, or it is authorized to accept, in consideration of his,
her, or its Allowed Claim against the Debtor, such distribution, and that there are no
outstanding comments, agreements, or understandings, expressed or implied, that may or can
in any way defeat or modify the Claim asserted by him, her, or it under the Plan or his, her,
or its right to receive such distribution.
2.5.2 In the event that any distribution to any holder of an Allowed Claim is
returned as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such holder unless and
until the Debtor or Trustee is notified of such holderā€™s then-current address. The Trustee will
send a letter to any holder of an Allowed Claim that does not negotiate a distribution check
within ninety (90) days of the checkā€™s issuance. If (i) there is no contact from the holder of
the Allowed Claim within ninety (90) days of the sending of the Trusteeā€™s letter and (ii) the
check is not negotiated during that ninety (90) day period, the Claim will be disallowed and
the holder of the Claim shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting the Claim against
the Debtor, the Estate, this Liquidating Trust, the Trustee, the Liquidating Trust Assets, the
Chapter 11 Trustee, or the property or assets of any of them, and no further distribution shall
be made to the holder of that Claim, with the funds reserved for such Claim to be distributed
to the Debtor for payment of Allowed Claims remaining unpaid pursuant to the terms of the
Plan and this Agreement. Nothing contained in the Plan or this Agreement shall require any
of the Debtor, Chapter 11 Trustee, the Liquidating Trust or the Trustee or the agents or
professionals of any one or more of them to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed
Claim.
2.5.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a distribution to be
made to a holder of an Allowed Unsecured Claim on any Distribution Date would be $100 or
less, no such distribution is required to be made to that holder at that time. Such
undistributed funds shall be held by the Trustee for subsequent distribution to that Claim
holder either when (i) further amounts become available such that the distribution to that
holder will exceed $100, or (ii) when final distributions are made (this provision shall not
apply to final distributions).
2.5.4 The Debtor or Trustee may suspend distribution to any creditor that has
not provided the Trustee with its Federal Tax Identification number or social security
number, as the case may be, after a reasonable request by the Trustee. If no such number is
provided within ninety (90) days of a reasonable request by the Trustee, the Trustee may
send a second request. If no Federal Tax or social security number is received by the Trustee
within ninety (90) days of his second request, the Claim will be disallowed and the holder of
the Claim shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting the Claim against the Debtor,
the Estate, the Liquidating Trust, the Trustee, the Liquidating Trust Assets, the Chapter 11
Trustee, or the property or assets of any of them, and no further distribution shall be made to
the holder of that Claim, with the funds reserved for such Claim to be distributed among the

2.6.2 No Liability for Acts of Predecessors. No successor Trustee shall be in
any way responsible for the acts or omissions of any Trustee in office prior to the date on

performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth herein, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement.
2.6.4 No Liability for Good Faith Error of Judgment or Other Persons. No
Trustee shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith, unless it shall be proved

Persons. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in
acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, or other paper or document believed by him to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Trustee may also engage and consult
with legal counsel without Court permission or order and shall not be liable for any action
taken or suffered by the Trustee in reliance upon the advice of such legal counsel.
2.7 No Personal Obligation for Trust liabilities. Persons dealing with the Trustee, or
seeking to assert claims against the Debtor, shall look only to the Liquidating Trust Assets to

of this Agreement, and the Trustee shall have no personal, individual obligation to satisfy any
such liability.

Bankruptcy Court and to the outgoing Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and
thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed, or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, and duties of the retiring Trustee pursuant to the Plan
and this Agreement.
2.15 Trust Continuance. The death or incompetency, resignation, or removal of the
Trustee shall not operate to terminate the Liquidating Trust created by this Agreement or to

purchase money or other consideration passing to the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, or to
inquire into the validity, expediency, or propriety of any such transaction by the Trustee or any
agent of the Trustee.
3. RIGHTS, POWERS AND DUTIES OF TRUST BENEFICIARY AND ALLOWED
CLAIMS
3.1 Interest of Trust Beneficiary and holders of Allowed Claims. The holders of
Allowed Claims against the Debtor shall have no beneficial interests in the Liquidating Trust
Assets. Only the Debtor shall have a beneficial interest in the Liquidating Trust Assets.
Allowed Claims against the Debtor shall be transferable. In the event of either a voluntary or
involuntary transfer of an Allowed Claim against the Debtor, the Trustee shall be provided with
such information as he deems sufficient for purposes of maintaining the Register pursuant to
Section 3.3 hereof and the terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall apply to the transferee as if
it were the original holder of the Claim.
3.2 Rights of Trust Beneficiary and of holders of Allowed Claims. The ownership of an
Allowed Claim against the Debtor or of the beneficial interest hereunder shall not entitle the
Debtor or any Claimant (or successor) to any title in or to the Liquidating Trust Assets as such,
or to any right to call for a partition or division of the same, or to require an accounting except as
specifically required by the terms hereof.
3.3 Register; Ownership of Allowed Claims. The Trustee will maintain or cause to be
maintained a register (the ā€œRegisterā€) that contains the names and addresses of the holders of all

name any Claim is registered on such Register as the owner thereof for the purposes of receiving
distributions from the Liquidating Trust Assets pursuant to the Plan.
3.4 Exemption from Registration. The parties hereto intend that the rights of the holders
of Allowed Claims against the Debtor arising under this Agreement and the provisions of the
Plan and Confirmation Order shall not be ā€œsecuritiesā€ under applicable law, but none of the
parties hereto represent or warrant that such rights shall not be securities or shall be entitled to
exemption from registration under applicable securities laws. If such rights constitute securities,
the parties hereto intend for the exemption from registration provided by 11 U.S.C. Ā§ 1145 to
apply to their issuance under the Plan.
3.5 Effect of Death, Incapacity, or Bankruptcy of holder of an Allowed Claim. The
death, incapacity, or bankruptcy of a holder of an Allowed Claim during the terms of this
Agreement shall not operate to terminate the Trust, nor shall it entitle the representatives or
creditors of the relevant Claim holder to an accounting, or to take any action in the courts or

it otherwise affect the rights and obligations of any other Claim holder.

Agreement, the Trustee and/or Debtor shall have the absolute right at the Trusteeā€™s election to do
any or all of the following:
(i) To the extent of such disagreement or conflict, or to the extent deemed by him
necessary or appropriate in light of such disagreement or conflict, withhold or
stop all further performance under this Agreement (save and except the

disagreement or conflicting claims have been fully and finally resolved; or
(ii) File a suit in interpleader or in the nature of interpleader in the Bankruptcy Court
and obtain an order requiring all persons and parties involved to litigate in the

state or political subdivision or entity by reason of any distribution provided for any law,
regulation, rule, ruling, directive, or other governmental requirement.
4.9.3 Tax Identification Numbers. The Trustee may require any Claimant to
furnish to the Trustee its Employer or Taxpayer Identification Number or social security
number and the Trustee may condition any distribution to any holder of an Allowed Claim
upon receipt of such identification number.
4.10 Amendment of Trust. This Agreement may be amended, modified, terminated,
revoked, or altered only upon order of the Bankruptcy Court.
5. RETENTION OF JURISDICTION
5.1 Retained Jurisdiction. As provided in the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court has retained
jurisdiction over the Debtor, the Liquidating Trust, the Trustee, and the Liquidating Trust Assets,
including, without limitation, the determination of all controversies and disputes arising under or
in connection with this Agreement. As provided in the Plan, such jurisdiction shall be as broad
and pervasive as would exist if the Trustee were a trustee appointed under Chapter 7 of the
Bankruptcy Code, and the Liquidating Trust Assets were property of the estate in such Chapter 7
case created pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Ā§ 541. This provision shall not operate to exclude other
courts of competent jurisdiction from exercising jurisdiction over the Liquidating Trust, the
Liquidating Trust Assets, and the Trustee.
5.2 Bankruptcy Courtā€™s Reservation of Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the Bankruptcy Court has and retains jurisdiction over the Liquidating Trust and
the Trustee to ensure prompt attention to the collection of the Liquidating Trust Assets and
prompt distribution to Allowed Claims against the Debtor. The Bankruptcy Court has and
retains jurisdiction to remove the Trustee for cause or to direct the Trustee and his professionals
as to such prompt collection and distribution after notice and an opportunity for a hearing.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this instrument to be executed
as of the day and year first above written.
