³	This Confirmation Order constitutes the findings of fact and conclusions of law required by Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 7052, made applicable to contested matters by Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9014.

FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

A.	Jurisdiction and Venue

1. On the Petition Date, the Debtors commenced these Chapter 11 Cases by filing voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors are qualified to be Debtors under section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code.

2. Jurisdiction and Core Proceeding (28 U.S.C. §157(b)(2)). This Court has jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §1334 over the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors, all property of the Debtors’ Estates and all parties that filed proofs of Claim or otherwise subjected themselves to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, and to consider Confirmation of the Plan and all provisions thereof. Confirmation of the Plan is a core proceeding under 28 U.S.C. §157(b)(2).

3. Venue (28 U.S.C. §§1408 and 1409). Venue of the Chapter 11 Cases is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§1408 and 1409.

4. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors have operated their business and remained in possession of their property as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases.

B.	Judicial Notice

5. The Court takes judicial notice of the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases maintained by the clerk of this Court (the “Docket”), including, without limitation, all pleadings, certifications, notices and other documents docketed all orders entered, and the transcripts of, and all evidence and arguments made, proffered or adduced at, the hearings held before this Court during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases.

C.	Burden of Proof

6. The Debtors, as the Plan Proponents, have met their burden of proof with respect to each of the elements of sections 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by a

preponderance of the evidence, which is the applicable evidentiary standard respecting confirmation of a plan of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court also finds that the Debtors have satisfied the elements of sections 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by clear and convincing evidence.

D.	Bankruptcy Rule 3016

7. The Plan is dated and identifies the Debtors submitting it, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a). The filing of the Disclosure Statement with the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court satisfied Bankruptcy Rule 3016(b).

E.	Disclosure Statement Order

8. On November 13, 2013, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Disclosure Statement Order that, among other things: (a) approved the Disclosure Statement and determined that the Disclosure Statement contains adequate information within the meaning of section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code and Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3017; (b) fixed the deadline for voting to accept or reject the First Amended Plan; (c) fixed the date and time for the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing; (d) established the objection deadline and procedures for objecting to the First Amended Plan; and (e) established the record date and certain procedures for soliciting and tabulating votes with respect to the First Amended Plan.

F.	Transmittal and Mailing of Solicitation Materials; Notice

9. As evidenced by the Solicitation Affidavit, the Debtors complied with the service requirements and procedures approved in the Disclosure Statement Order. The Debtors have provided notice of the Confirmation Hearing and solicited ballots accepting or rejecting the First Amended Plan by timely transmitting the Solicitation Materials to all holders of Claims and Equity Interests, in accordance with the Disclosure Statement Order, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the local rules for the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Local Rules”). The notices of the Confirmation Hearing are adequate and sufficient; no other notice need be given.

G.	Voting

10. Holders of Claims in Classes 1 and 3 under the First Amended Plan are impaired and entitled to vote to accept or reject the First Amended Plan. Holders of Claims in Class 2 are unimpaired and deemed to accept the First Amended Plan. Holders of Equity Interests in Class 4 are impaired and will receive no distribution under the First Amended Plan, and thus are deemed to reject the First Amended Plan.

11. On December 17, 2013, the Debtors’ Claims Agent filed with this Court the Voting Declaration [Docket No. 821] certifying the method and results of the ballot tabulation for Classes 1 and 3.

12. The Debtors and their respective directors, officers, agents, affiliates, representatives, attorneys and advisors following entry of the Disclosure Statement Order solicited votes to accept or reject the First Amended Plan in good faith and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, the Disclosure Statement Order and all other applicable statutes, rules, laws and regulations.

H.	Voting Report

13. As evidenced by the Voting Declaration, all ballots were properly tabulated. Pursuant to sections 1124 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, Class 1 (Senior Secured Term Loan Claims) and Class 3 (General Unsecured Claims), which are the only classes entitled to vote on the Plan, each voted to accept the Plan by the standards required by section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

I.	Compliance With the Requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code⁴

14. The Debtors’ Plan contains modifications which constitute non-material changes and do not materially adversely affect or change the treatment of any Claims or Equity Interests. Accordingly, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3019, these modifications do not require additional disclosure under Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code or re-solicitation of votes under Section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code.

15. The Plan complies with all applicable provisions of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code as set forth below:

(a)

Section 1129(a)(1): Compliance of the Plan With Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code

16. The Plan complies with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Bankruptcy Code sections 1122 and 1123.

(i)

Section 1122, 1123(a)(1): Proper Classification

17. Article III of the Plan classifies four Classes of Claims and Equity Interests. The Claims and Equity Interests placed in each Class are substantially similar to other Claims and Equity Interests, as the case may be, in such Class. Valid business, factual and legal reasons exist for separately classifying the various Classes of Claims and Equity Interests designated by the Plan, and the creation of such Classes does not unfairly discriminate between holders of Claims and Equity Interests. The Plan, therefore, satisfies sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

⁴	The Debtors submit that the following Bankruptcy Code provisions are not applicable in these Chapter 11 Cases: §§ 1129(a)(6), 1129(a)(13), 1129(a)(14), 1129(a)(15) & 1129(a)(16).

(ii)

Section 1123(a)(2)-(4): Specified Treatment and No Discrimination

18. Article III, Section B of the Plan specifies that Claims in Class 2 are not impaired under the Plan, in accordance with section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and that Claims and Equity Interests in Classes 1, 3 and 4 are impaired and describes the treatment of each such Class in accordance with section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. Further, Article III, Section B of the Plan further specifies that Class 4 is not entitled to receive any distribution and, therefore, is deemed to reject the Plan. As required by section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, the treatment of each Claim or Equity Interest within a Class is the same as the treatment of each other Claim or Equity Interest in such Class, unless the holder of a Claim or Equity Interest agrees to less favorable treatment on account of its Claim or Equity Interest in such Class.

(iii)

Section 1123(a)(5): Adequate Means for Plan Implementation

19. Pursuant to section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article IV of the Plan provides adequate and proper means for the Plan’s implementation, including, without limitation (a) the appointment of Bradley Dietz as the Responsible Person to hold, manage, dispose of, sell, convert to Cash, and distribute the assets vesting in the Liquidating Trust for the benefit of the Creditors that are entitled to Distributions therefrom under the Plan; and (b) the funding of the GUC Trust and appointment of SltnTrst LLC as the GUC Trustee for the sole purpose of adjudicating General Unsecured Claims and distributing the assets vesting in the GUC Trust for the benefit of the beneficiaries of the GUC Trust.

(iv)

Section 1123(a)(6): Non-Voting Equity Securities

20. The Plan does not provide for the issuance of non-voting equity securities, thereby satisfying section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(v)

Section 1123(a)(7): Designation of Directors and Officers

21. The Plan complies with section 1123(a)(7) and ensures that the selection of the Responsible Person and GUC Trustee are consistent with the interests of holders of Allowed Claims because the Senior Secured Term Loan Lenders have consented to the choice of the Responsible Person and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors has consented to the choice of the GUC Trustee.

(vi) Section 1123(b)(1)-(2): Impairment/Unimpairment of Classes of Claims and Equity Interests & Executory Contracts

22. As described above, Article III of the Plan provides for the impairment of certain Classes of Claims and Equity Interests, while leaving others unimpaired. The Plan thus modifies the rights of such holders of Claims and Equity Interests and leaves the rights of others unaffected. In addition, subject to certain exculpations provided for therein, Article VII of the Plan also provides for the rejection of the remaining executory contracts and unexpired leases to which the Debtors are parties.

(vii)

Section 1123(b)(3): Releases, Exculpation and Injunction Discharge

23. Releases. The release of Claims in favor of the Released Parties pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code are described in Article IX.B of the Plan. Each of the Released Parties has contributed significant value to the Debtors, their Plan and their liquidation efforts that warrant the releases.

24. The releases also fully comply with the applicable standard enunciated by the courts in In re Zenith Electronics Corp., 241 B.R. 92 (Bankr. D. Del. 1999), In re Spansion, Inc., 426 B.R. 114 (Bankr. D. Del. 2010) and In re Washington Mutual, Inc., 442 B.R. 314 (Bankr. D. Del. 2011). The Released Parties all share an identity of interest with the Debtors and have made substantial contributions to the Debtors’ reorganization efforts. In addition, the releases are an integral part of the agreement by and among the Debtors, the Senior Secured Term Loan Lenders and the Creditors Committee to support the Plan. The third party releases are fully consensual.

25. Accordingly, the Court finds that the releases represent a valid exercise of the Debtors’ business judgment, are granted in exchange for reasonable consideration and are integral and necessary to consummation of the Plan. The Released Parties have provided sufficient value in exchange for the releases, and the releases are sufficiently tailored to meet the objectives of the parties.

26. Exculpation. The exculpation set forth in Article IX.C of the Plan, as modified herein, is an essential and integral provision of the Plan. The record in these Chapter 11 Cases fully supports the exculpation provisions set forth in Article IX.C of the Plan and as modified herein. Such provisions are appropriately tailored to protect the Debtors, the Debtors’ Professionals, the Debtors’ current and former directors and officers, the Creditors Committee’s members (but solely in their capacity as members of the Creditors Committee and not in their individual capacities), and the Creditors Committee’s Professionals, from litigation relating to acts or omissions arising on or after the Petition Date, including any act taken or omitted to be taken in connection with, or related to, formulating, negotiating, preparing, disseminating, implementing, administering, confirming or consummating the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the 9019 Settlement or any other contract, instrument, release or other agreement or document created or entered into in connection with the Plan or any other postpetition act taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.

27. Each of the releases and exculpation provisions set forth in the Plan, as modified or limited by this Order: (a) is within the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court under 28 U.S.C. §§1334(a), 1334(b), and 1334(d); (b) is essential to the implementation of the Plan;

(c) is an integral element of the transactions incorporated into and contemplated by the Plan; (d) confers material benefits on, and is in the best interests of, the Debtors, their estates, their creditors and other parties in interest; (e) is important to the overall objectives of the Plan to finally resolve all Claims among or against the parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases; and (f) is consistent with sections 105, 1123, 1129, and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The record of the Confirmation Hearing and the Chapter 11 Cases is sufficient to support the releases and exculpation provisions contained in Article IX of the Plan, as modified by this Confirmation Order.

(b)

Section 1129(a)(2): Compliance by the Debtors With the Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code

28. The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have complied with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code as required by section 1129(a)(2), including, without limitation, sections 1123, 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 3017, 3018 and 3019.

29. In particular, the Debtors are proper debtors under section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and are proper Plan Proponents under section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Furthermore, the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan: (i) complied with the Disclosure Statement Order; (ii) complied with all applicable laws, rules and regulations governing the adequacy of disclosure in connection with such solicitation; and (iii) occurred only after disclosure of “adequate information” to holders of Claims or Equity Interests, as section 1125(a) of the Bankruptcy Code defines that term and as determined by the Bankruptcy Court in the Disclosure Statement Order. Accordingly, the Debtors and their Representatives have acted in “good faith” within the meaning of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c)

Section 1129(a)(3): Proposal of the Plan in Good Faith

30. The Debtors proposed the Plan based upon extensive, arm’s-length negotiations between and among the Debtors, the Creditors Committee, and the Senior Secured Term Loan Lenders, and proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, as required by section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. This Court has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases and the process leading to the formulation of the Plan and the Disclosure Statement. The Chapter 11 Cases were filed, and the Plan was proposed, with the legitimate and good faith purposes of liquidating the Debtors’ estates and maximizing their value. No objections were filed that alleged the Plan was not proposed in good faith or was otherwise proposed by means forbidden by law.

(d)

Section 1129(a)(4): Bankruptcy Court Approval of Certain Payments Reasonable

31. The procedures set forth in the Plan for the Bankruptcy Court’s review and ultimate determination of the fees and expenses to be paid by the Debtors in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Chapter 11 Cases, comply with section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result, the requirements of section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(e)

Section 1129(a)(5): Disclosure and Identity of Proposed Management

32. The Plan complies with Bankruptcy Code section 1129(a)(5) by providing for the appointments of the Responsible Person and the GUC Trustee to serve as of and after the Effective Date. No further disclosure is necessary because the Debtors will not retain any managers or officers as of the Effective Date.

(f)

Section 1129(a)(7): Best Interests of Creditors

33. Each entity that holds a Claim or Equity Interest in a class that is impaired under the Plan either: (a) has accepted the Plan; or (b) as set forth in the Liquidation Analysis annexed as Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement, will receive or retain under the Plan property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the entity would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The methodology used and assumptions made in the Liquidation Analysis, as supplemented by the evidence proffered or adduced at the Confirmation Hearing or otherwise in the record of these Chapter 11 Cases, are reasonable. As a result, the requirements of section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(g)

Section 1129(a)(8): Acceptance by the Plan by Each Impaired Class

34. As set forth in the Voting Declaration, Class 1 (Senior Secured Term Loan Claims) and Class 3 (General Unsecured Claims), as impaired classes entitled to vote on the Plan, each voted in favor of the Plan.

35. Class 2 Claims are unimpaired and conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan under section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code.

36. Class 4 is impaired and the holders of Equity Interests will receive no distribution on account of their Equity Interests under the Plan and thus, the Class is deemed to reject the Plan under section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code.

37. Because Class 4 is impaired and conclusively deemed to have rejected the Plan under section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors sought Confirmation under section 1129(b), rather than section 1129(a), of the Bankruptcy Code. Although section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code has not been satisfied with respect to Class 4, the Court finds the Plan is confirmable, because the Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to Class 4. All voting classes have voted to accept the Plan. As a result, the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(h)

Section 1129(a)(9): Treatment of Claims Entitled to Priority Pursuant to Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code

38. The treatment of Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Claims for Accrued Professional Compensation and Allowed Priority Tax Claims under Article II of the Plan respectively, satisfies the requirements of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(i)

Section 1129(a)(10): Acceptance by at Least One Impaired Class

39. As set forth in the Voting Declaration and above, at least one impaired class, other than Class 4 which is deemed to reject, voted to accept the Plan by the requisite majorities, determined without including the acceptance of the Plan by any insider. Accordingly, section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.

(j)

Section 1129(a)(11): Feasibility of the Plan

40. The Plan satisfies section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

41. The evidence proffered or adduced at the Confirmation Hearing, including, without limitation, the Hinkelman Affidavit demonstrates that the Debtors will have sufficient funds to satisfy their obligations under the Plan and, given that the Plan contemplates the liquidation of the Debtors, confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the further reorganization of the Debtors or any successor to the Debtors that is not otherwise contemplated by the Plan. As a result, the requirements of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(k)

Section 1129(a)(12): Payment of Bankruptcy Fees

42. In accordance with section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article V.N of the Plan provides for the payment of all fees payable under 28 U.S.C. §1930(a). As a result, the requirements of section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(l)

Section 1129(b): Confirmation of the Plan Over Nonacceptance of Impaired Class

43. Pursuant to section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan may be confirmed notwithstanding that not all impaired classes voted to accept the Plan. All classes of impaired Claims voted to accept the Plan. Class 4 Equity Interests is deemed to reject, but no holder of Equity Interests objected to Confirmation.

44. The requirements of section 1129(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code are satisfied with respect to Class 4 because there are no holders of Claims or Equity Interests that are junior to Class 4 that will receive or retain under the Plan any property, in accordance with section 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(m)

Satisfaction of Confirmation Requirements

45. Based on the foregoing, the Plan and Plan Proponents satisfy the requirements for Confirmation set forth in section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and the Plan may be confirmed notwithstanding the deemed rejection by Class 4.

(n)

Section 1129(c): Only One Plan

46. Other than the Plan (including previous versions thereof), no other plan has been filed in the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result, the requirements of section 1129(c) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

(o)

Section 1129(d): Principal Purpose of the Plan is Not the Avoidance of Taxes or Application of the Securities Law

47. The principal purpose of the Plan is not the avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77e). As a result, the requirements of section 1129(d) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

J.	Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

48. The Debtors have satisfied the provisions of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the assumption, assignment and rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases under the Plan. The Debtors have exercised reasonable and sound business judgment in determining whether to assume, assume and sell and assign, or reject each of their executory contracts and unexpired leases, including, without limitation, any insurance policies to the extent they are executory contracts, as set forth in the Plan and the exhibits thereto, and such determination is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, and all parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, the Plan satisfies the provisions of section 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

K.	Satisfaction of Conditions Precedent to Effective Date

49. This Order is entered and shall satisfy one of the conditions precedent to the Effective Date set forth in Article VIII of the Plan.

L.	Retention of Jurisdiction

50. The Bankruptcy Court may properly retain jurisdiction over the matters set forth in Article X of the Plan.

		Releases by Holders of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in the above paragraph, each Person, other than any of the Debtors, who votes to accept the Plan and does not mark such ballot to indicate their refusal to grant the release provided for in this paragraph, shall be deemed to fully, completely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever release the Released Parties of and from any and all Claims and Causes of Action and any other debts, obligations, rights, suits, damages, actions, remedies and liabilities whatsoever, whether accrued or unaccrued, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing on or before the Effective Date, or arising thereafter, in law, at equity, whether for tort, contract, violations of statutes (including but not limited to the federal or state securities laws), or


		otherwise, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, or other occurrence or circumstances existing or taking place prior to or on the Effective Date arising from or related in any way to the Debtors and their current and former affiliates and Representatives, whether direct, derivative, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, disputed or undisputed, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, in law, equity or otherwise.

32. All Professionals in these Chapter 11 Cases, other than those Professionals who have been otherwise relieved of the requirement to file fee applications by prior orders of the Court, shall not be required to file a request for payment of any Administrative Claim on or before the Administrative Claims Bar Date for fees and expenses arising under sections 330, 331 or 503(b)(2-5) of the Bankruptcy Code, as such Professionals will instead file final fee applications required by the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules in accordance with this Order.
