Any monetary defaults under each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan shall be satisfied by payment of the default amount in cash on the Effective Date or in the ordinary course of business or on such other terms as the parties to such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases may otherwise agree. In the event of a dispute regarding matters pertaining to assumption, the cure payments shall be made following the entry of a final order or orders resolving the dispute and approving the assumption.

Contracts and Leases Entered Into After the Petition Date

Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, including any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed by such Debtor, will be performed by the applicable Debtor or reorganized Debtor liable thereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

Director and Officer Liability Insurance; Other Insurance

Before the Petition Date, the Debtors obtained reasonably sufficient tail coverage (i.e., director and officer insurance coverage that extends beyond the end of the policy period) under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy for the current and former directors, officers and managers. After the Effective Date, the reorganized Company shall not terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under such tail coverage liability insurance in effect and all members, managers, directors and officers of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date of the Plan shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policy for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such members, managers, directors, and/or officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date of the Plan.

The Debtors will maintain and, to the extent applicable, assume their directors’ and officers’, general liability, and other insurance policies. The Debtors will list all current year insurance policies among the Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Lease List

Management Incentive Plan

The Plan also provides for a management equity incentive plan, under which a percentage of the equity of the reorganized Company acceptable to the Required Lenders, if any, will be reserved for issuance as equity-based awards to management and employees.

Assumption of Employee and Retiree Benefits

There are no employment, retirement, indemnification and other agreements or arrangements in place as of the Effective Date with the non-insider officers and employees of the Debtors and certain non-Debtor subsidiaries, or other or retirement income plans and welfare benefit plans for such persons, or discretionary bonus plans or variable incentive plans regarding payment of a percentage of annual salary based on performance goals and financial targets for certain employees, and accordingly, no such agreements or arrangements will be assumed by the reorganized Debtors or otherwise remain in effect after the Effective Date. In no event will the Debtors assume (i) any equity-based compensation, agreement, or arrangement existing as of the Effective Date or (ii) any employment, retirement, indemnification or other agreements or arrangements with the Debtors’ and certain non-Debtor subsidiaries’ officers, key leaders, top level managers, or directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on and after the Effective Date, all retiree benefits (as that term is defined in section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code), if any, will continue to be paid in accordance with applicable law.

Composition of New Board of Directors after the Effective Date

Under the Plan, as of the Effective Date, the reorganized Company’s initial Board of Directors is expected to be composed of seven members, consisting of Steven Colder, Richard E. Maybaum, Brian W. Michaud, Antonio Miranda, Brian E. Ramsay, Curt Solvsig and Charles Sorrentino.

Sources of Funds; Exit Facilities

The Plan is to be funded with cash on hand (including cash from operations), proceeds of a $50.0 million asset-based revolving loan facility (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”) and an $85.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility,” and together with the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, the “Exit Facilities”) to be entered into by the reorganized Debtors on the Effective Date. The Exit Facilities will also be used to fund ongoing operations. The non-binding summary of terms and conditions of the Exit Facilities are included as Exhibit D to the Supplement to Debtors’ Joint Plan of Reorganization filed on July 16, 2014 and available free of charge at http://cases.primeclerk.com/gse.

Securities to be Issued under the Plan

On the Effective Date, all of the Company’s existing equity securities, including its existing common stock, will be cancelled. Holders of the First Lien Secured Claims will receive their proportionate share of the New Common Stock of the reorganized Company in exchange for their claims. The authorized capital stock of the reorganized Company will consist of the New Common Stock and new preferred stock.

Releases

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, or in any contract, instrument, release or other agreement or document created pursuant to the Plan, 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 will 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 will revert to the reorganized Debtors and their successors and assigns.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, the Debtors, the reorganized Debtors and the estates will be deemed to have released and discharged various parties and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees and representatives from any and all claims, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or subsequently arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that the Debtors, the reorganized Debtors, the estates or their affiliates 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 or their Affiliates, the Chapter 11 cases or related matters described in the Plan, upon any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on or before the Confirmation Date of the Plan, other than claims or liabilities arising out of or related to any contractual or fixed monetary obligation owed to the Debtors or the reorganized Debtors.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date, each holder of a claim or an interest in the Debtors that votes to accept the Plan and does not opt out of the Third Party Release, will be deemed to have released and discharged the Debtors, the reorganized Debtors and various other parties and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees and representatives from any and all claims, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or subsequently arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such entity would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively), based on or in any way relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, certain non-Debtor subsidiaries, the Debtors’ restructuring, the Chapter 11 cases or related matters described in the Plan, upon any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date of the Plan, other than claims or liabilities arising out of or relating to any act or omission that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence.
