ARTICLE I INTRODUCTION GameTech International, Inc., GameTech Arizona Corp., GameTech Canada Corp., and GameTech Mexico S. De R.L. de C.V. (collectively, the Debtors) and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the Committee and together with the Debtors, the Plan Proponents) have filed the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation Proposed by the Debtors and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (as such plan may be further amended from time to time in accordance with its terms, the Plan), with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court). A copy of the Plan is annexed hereto as Exhibit I. The Plan Proponents hereby submit this disclosure statement (the Disclosure Statement) pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code in connection with the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan from certain Holders of Claims against the Debtors. Following a hearing held on November [7], 2012, this Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court as containing adequate information in accordance with Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to Section 1125(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, adequate information is defined as information of a kind, and in sufficient detail, as far as is reasonably practicable in light of the nature and the history of the debtor and the condition of the debtor's books and records, that would enable a hypothetical reasonable investor typical of holders of claims or interests in the relevant class to make an informed judgment about the plan. NO STATEMENTS OR INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PLAN AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY HAVE BEEN AUTHORIZED, OTHER THAN THE STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND THE INFORMATION ACCOMPANYING THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. ALL OTHER STATEMENTS REGARDING THE PLAN AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, ARE UNAUTHORIZED. APPROVAL OF THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT DOES NOT INDICATE THAT THE BANKRUPTCY COURT RECOMMENDS EITHER ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN NOR DOES SUCH APPROVAL CONSTITUTE A DETERMINATION BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT OF THE FAIRNESS OR MERITS OF THE PLAN. This Disclosure Statement contains important information that may bear upon your decision to accept or reject the Plan. Each Holder of a Claim or Interest should read this Disclosure Statement and the Plan in their entirety, including the conditions precedent to the Effective Date of the Plan contained in Article XI of the Plan. After carefully reviewing these documents, if you are a Holder of a Claim entitled to vote, please indicate your vote with respect to the Plan on the enclosed Ballot (defined below) and return it in the envelope provided.

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

CAPITALIZED TERMS NOT DEFINED HEREIN ARE AS DEFINED IN ARTICLE I OF THE PLAN. The information set forth herein is based on the Debtors books and records, historical materials and public and non-public materials. Accounting and any valuation methods are as maintained by the Debtors. A. Disclosure Statement Enclosures Accompanying this Disclosure Statement are: a copy of the Plan (Exhibit I); a Liquidation Analysis (Exhibit II); a ballot for acceptance or rejection of the Plan for Holders of Impaired Claims entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan (the Ballot); and a notice setting forth: (i) the deadline for casting Ballots either accepting or rejecting the Plan; (ii) the deadline for filing objections to confirmation of the Plan; and (iii) the date, time and location of the Confirmation Hearing (the Notice).

B.

Only Impaired Classes Vote

Pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, only classes of claims or interests that are impaired under a plan may vote to accept or reject such plan. Generally, a claim or interest is impaired under a plan if the holders legal, equitable or contractual rights are changed under such plan. In addition, if the holders of claims or interests in an impaired class do not receive or retain any property under a plan on account of such claims or interests, such impaired class is deemed to have rejected such Plan under Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and therefore, such holders do not need to vote on such Plan. Under the Plan, Holders of Claims in Classes 1 and 2 are Unimpaired and therefore deemed to accept the Plan. Holders of Claims in Class 3 are Impaired and are entitled to vote on the Plan. Holders of Interests in Class 4 are deemed to reject the Plan and are not entitled to vote on the Plan. ACCORDINGLY, A BALLOT FOR ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN IS BEING PROVIDED ONLY TO HOLDERS OF CLAIMS IN CLASS 3. For a summary of the treatment of each Class of Claims and Interests, see Article IV, Summary of the Plan below.

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

The classification and treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan are described in detail below. Because the Plan provides the greatest likelihood of recovery to all Holders of Allowed Claims in the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan Proponents strongly encourage all Holders of Claims entitled to vote on the Plan to vote to accept the Plan. ARTICLE I BACKGROUND A. General Background of the Debtors

GameTech International, Inc. (GII) was incorporated in 1994 and was a global gaming technology company dedicated to the development and manufacturing of cutting-edge gaming entertainment products and systems. GII and its affiliated Debtors were principally involved in two business segments: (1) the bingo market and (2) the video lottery terminal market. GameTechs bingo business leased electronic bingo equipment and licensed related software and games throughout the United States and Canada to charitable organizations, Native American tribes, the military, casinos and other licensed operators. GameTechs products allowed operators to provide a variety of playing options. GameTechs video lottery terminal or VLT business included traditional slot machines, video poker, keno and spinning wheel games, as well as the related software and game content. GameTechs total revenue for calendar year 2011 exceeded $30 million. A detailed factual background of the Debtors business and operations, as well as the events precipitating the commencement of these cases, is fully set forth in the Declaration of Andrew E. Robinson in Support of the Debtors Chapter 11 Petitions and Requests for First Day Relief (the First Day Declaration), filed on the Petition Date and incorporated herein by reference. B. The Debtors Prepetition Debt Structure

Pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2011 by and among GII, each lender party thereto from time to time (each, an Original Prepetition Lender and collectively, the Original Prepetition Lenders), and U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the Original Prepetition Agent), and as lead arranger and book manager (as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Petition Date, the Prepetition Loan Agreement) and the Loan Documents (as defined in the Prepetition Loan Agreement, collectively, the Prepetition Loan Documents), the Original Prepetition Agent and the Original Prepetition Lenders made certain loans, advances, and other financial accommodations to the Debtors to fund, among other things, the operations of the Debtors. The other Debtors (the Guarantors) were parties to a Guaranty Agreement, dated as of August 22, 2008, pursuant to which the Guarantors guaranteed the obligations under the Prepetition Loan Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the Prepetition Guaranty).

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

Pursuant to the Collateral Loan Documents, as defined in the Prepetition Loan Agreement (the Collateral Loan Documents), prior to the Petition Date the Original Prepetition Agent was granted, for the benefit of the Original Prepetition Lenders and their successors, continuing liens on and security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Debtors (the Prepetition Collateral). GII and U.S. Bank were parties to that certain ISDA Master Agreement dated August 7, 2008 (the Master Agreement), Schedule to the Master Agreement dated August 15, 2008 and Confirmation No. 23048A dated August 25, 2008 with a trade date of August 22, 2008 (collectively, the Swap Transaction). Bank of the West participated in such Swap Transaction pursuant to the Risk Management Agreement dated August 28, 2008 between U.S. Bank and Bank of the West. The Swap Transaction was terminated prior to the Petition Date, resulting in payment obligations owed by GII to U.S. Bank and Bank of the West under the Master Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $440,000. All payment obligations of the Company arising under or in connection with the Swap Transaction are collectively referred to herein as the Swap Obligations. On June 27, 2012, all rights and obligations of the Original Prepetition Lenders and the Original Prepetition Agent under the Prepetition Loan Documents, and all rights of U.S. Bank and Bank of the West in the Swap Obligations, were assigned the Yuri Itkis Gaming Trust of 1993 (the Itkis Trust). The Itkis Trust was the Agent under the Prepetition Loan Agreement, and together with its successors and assigns is referred to herein in such capacity as the Prepetition Agent. The Itkis Trust was also the sole Lender under and as defined the Prepetition Loan Agreement, and together with its successors and assigns is referred to herein in such capacity, and in its capacity as holder of the right to receive payment of the Swap Obligations, as the Prepetition Lender. The Itkis Trust is the owner of one of the Debtors competitors, FortuNet, Inc. As of the Petition Date, (i) GII was indebted and liable to the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lender, without defense, counterclaim, or offset of any kind, in respect of loans made under the Prepetition Loan Agreement, in the aggregate principal amount of $15,644,012.26 (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon in the amount of $424,980.99 through July 2, 2012, and interest accruing thereafter, calculated at the default rate, in the amount of not less than $6,405.25 per day, (ii) GII was indebted and liable to the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lender, without defense, counterclaim, or offset of any kind, in respect of Swap Obligations, in the aggregate principal amount of $440,000 (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon in the amount of $6,743.68 through July 2, 2012, and interest accruing thereafter, calculated at the default rate, in the amount of not less than $180.15 per day), (iii) GII was indebted and liable to the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lender for unpaid fees, expenses (including any attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and financial advisors fees that are chargeable or reimbursable under the Prepetition Loan Documents), charges and other obligations incurred in connection with such loans as provided in the Prepetition Loan Documents (items (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, and all other Obligations (as such term is defined in the Prepetition Loan Agreement) are hereinafter referred to as the Prepetition Obligations), and (iii) each of the Guarantors, as parties to a guarantee executed and delivered in respect of the Prepetition Obligations, was liable to the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lender under such guarantee

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

in the aggregate amount of not less than the aggregate amount of the Prepetition Obligations. Pursuant to the Collateral Documents (as defined in the Prepetition Loan Agreement), the Debtors granted first priority Liens and continuing pledges and security interests in the Prepetition Collateral to and/or for the benefit of the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lender and its successors to secure the Prepetition Obligations and any guarantees thereof (collectively, the Prepetition Liens). C. Summary of Events Leading to Chapter 11 Filings

The Debtors faced a competitive and difficult business environment since 2008. The Debtors experienced revenue declines in recent years due primarily to the severe financial and operational strain brought on by the VLT acquisition and the prolonged economic downturn. These problems were exacerbated by a lack of liquidity due to the incurrence of significant debt in connection with the VLT acquisition and the acquisition of a new corporate headquarters facility. These capital pressures prevented the Debtors from making the necessary investment in technology that the business needs to compete effectively in the very competitive bingo market. To address those issues, the Debtors management took a number of steps including divesting the headquarters building, taking steps to correct operational issues with the VLT business, cutting costs and revamping its technology. On March 1, 2012, the Debtors also retained Kinetic to assist in the evaluation of strategic alternatives and to render financial advisory services to the Debtors including restructuring and capital raising services, as well as a possible sale of the Debtors business. Prior to the Petition Date, Kinetic began a marketing process which focused on finding a purchaser for the Debtors pre-petition secured debt. The goal of that process was to find a purchaser for the pre-petition secured debt that would ultimately acquire the Debtors assets or make an equity investment in the Debtors. As part of that process, Kinetic contacted all of the parties that they believed would be interested in investing in the Debtors. Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors were also in default under their existing secured loan detailed in Article II.B above. In order to allow time for the operational improvements to take hold and to move the Debtors in a positive direction, the Debtors required an extension or forbearance under the Prepetition Loan Documents as well as some additional investment. The Debtors were able to negotiate a short forbearance in order to discuss a restructuring transaction. That forbearance expired on June 30, 2012. Shortly prior thereto, on June 27, 2012, the Debtors secured loan was purchased by the Itkis Trust. The Debtors requested a forbearance agreement to work through the issues with the Itkis Trust, but no forbearance was granted. Without a source of funding to continue their operations, the Debtors filed their chapter 11 petitions shortly thereafter on July 2, 2012.

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

ARTICLE II THE CHAPTER 11 CASES A. Commencement of These Chapter 11 Cases

On July 2, 2012 (the Petition Date), the Debtors filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and thereafter continued in the management and possession of their businesses and properties as debtors in possession pursuant to Sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. By order dated July 3, 2012, the Debtors cases were jointly administered for procedural purposes only. No trustee or examiner has been appointed. B. First Day Motions and Related Applications

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed a number of First Day motions designed to ease the Debtors transition into Chapter 11, maximize the value of the Debtors assets and minimize the effects of the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases. By orders dated July 3, 2012, the Debtors obtained authority to, inter alia: (i) maintain their existing bank accounts and consolidated cash management system; (ii) make payments on account of certain pre-petition obligations, including employee wages and benefits and sales and use taxes; (iii) provide adequate assurance to their utility providers to ensure continued utility service (final order entered August 7, 2012); and (iv) maintain all insurance policies and insurance premium financing. C. Retention of Professionals and Appointment of the Committee 1. Debtors Professionals

By order dated August 7, 2012, the Debtors retained Greenberg Traurig, LLP to serve as their bankruptcy counsel in these Chapter 11 cases. By order dated August 7, 2012, the Debtors were also authorized to employ and retain Kinetic Advisors LLC as their financial advisor. The Debtors retained BMC Group, Inc., as balloting, noticing and claims agent by orders dated July 19, 2012 and August 7, 2012. The Debtors were also authorized to retain certain ordinary course professionals utilized by the Debtors prior to the Petition Date pursuant to the authority granted by the Bankruptcy Court by order dated August 7, 2012. 2. Appointment of Creditors Committee

On August 9, 2012, the United States Trustee appointed the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors. The members of the Committee are: (i) Gaming Laboratories International, LLC; (ii) Primsesoft Solutions Inc.; and (iii) OEM-Tech Company. By order dated September 14, 2012, the Committee retained Klehr Harrison Harvey Branzburg LLP, to serve as its bankruptcy counsel in these Chapter 11 Cases. By order dated September 27, 2012, the Committee was authorized to retain Gavin/Solmonese as its financial advisor. The Committee has been an active participant in these Chapter 11 Cases.

Interim Payments

By order dated August 7, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court authorized a procedure for submission and payment of partial fees, and expenses, of duly retained Professionals subject to further, periodic orders of the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant thereto, various retained Professionals have been paid interim payments, subject to a hold-back and periodic Bankruptcy Court orders. Final approval of compensation and reimbursement of expenses to duly retained Professionals is expected to be sought after the Effective Date. D. The Interim Cash Collateral Orders

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed the Motion of the Debtors and Debtors in Possession for Entry of Interim and Final Orders (I) Authorizing the Use of Cash Collateral, (II) Granting Adequate Protection Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 361, 362, 363 and 507, and (III) Scheduling a Final Hearing Pursuant to Federal Bankruptcy Rule 4001(b) and Local Rule 4001-2 [Docket No. 11] (the Cash Collateral Motion).

The Interim DIP Financing Order also scheduled a hearing to consider entry of a Final Financing DIP Order (as defined below). On September 6, 2012, the Court entered the Final Order (I) Authorizing Debtors to Obtain Postpetition Financing Pursuant to Sections 363 and 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (II) Granting Liens and Superpriority Claims to the Postpetition Agent and Postpetition Lenders Pursuant to Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (III) Authorizing Use of Cash Collateral Pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (IV) Providing Adequate Protection to the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lenders Pursuant to Sections 361, 362 363, and 364, of the Bankruptcy Code (the Final DIP Financing Order).

Since shortly after the Petition Date, the Debtors negotiated with the Itkis Trust on the terms of (a) a stalking horse purchase agreement and a related bidding procedures and sale motion and (b) the necessary financing to support these cases and any proposed sale process. The Debtors ultimately reached agreement with the Itkis Trust on the terms of both a stalking horse purchase agreement with an affiliate of the Itkis Trust (the Purchaser) and related bidding procedures. The Itkis Trust also agreed to provide necessary financing to support the

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

Debtors businesses and the chapter 11 cases in order to maximize the value in their estates. After extensive negotiations, the Debtors and the Purchaser agreed to pursue a sale of substantially all of the Debtors assets (the Assets). The consideration for the Purchasers stalking horse bid for the Assets included: (i) the credit bid pursuant to section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code of all indebtedness owing as of the Closing Date by GII to the Stalking Horse; (ii) the credit bid pursuant to section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code of all DIP Obligations owing as of the Closing Date; (iii) cash in the amount of $2,500,000 minus the amount of all DIP Obligations owing as of the Closing Date; (iv) the assumption of the Assumed Obligations; (v) the payment of all sales taxes on the sale of the Assets. The terms of the sale were set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Bid Procedures, each as defined in and detailed more fully in the Motion for Entry of Orders: (A)(I) Approving Bid Procedures Relating to Sale of the Debtors Assets; (II) Approving Bid Protections; (III) Scheduling a Hearing to Consider the Sale; (IV) Approving the Form and Manner of Notice of Sale By Auction; (V) Establishing Procedures for Noticing and Determining Cure Amounts; and (VI) Granting Related Relief; and (B)(I) Approving Asset Purchase Agreement and Authorizing the Sale of Certain Assets of the Debtors Outside of the Ordinary Course of Business; (II) Authorizing the Sale of Assets Free and Clear of All Liens, Claims, Encumbrances and Interests; (III) Authorizing the Assumption, Sale and Assignment of Certain Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases; and (IV) Granting Related Relief [Docket No. 135] (the Bid Procedures Motion). In connection with the anticipated sale of the Assets, the Debtors also sought the approval of (a) certain bidding procedures and protections, and related dates and deadlines in respect of the sale, (b) the procedures and related dates and deadlines in respect of the assumption and assignment of some or all of the Debtors executory contracts and unexpired leases, and (c) a form of cure notice. The Bankruptcy Court approved and established bidding procedures pursuant to an order dated August 21, 2012. In order to assure that the highest and/or best transaction was achieved, Kinetic engaged in a process to market the Debtors business and assets to other potential purchasers prior to the Debtors proceeding with an auction and sale process before the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors proposed the sale of the Assets after thorough consideration of all viable alternatives, and believed that the sale was supported by sound business reasons. Hence, the Debtors determined, with the approval of the Committee, that a sale of the Assets would provide the best and most efficient means for the Debtors to maximize the value of their Estates. On September 27, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Order Under 11 U.S.C. 105(a), 363 and 365 and Fed. R. Bankr. P. 2002, 6004 and 6006 Authorizing and Approving (A) the Sale of Assets Free and Clear of Liens and Other Interests, and (B) Assumption and Assignment of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to Successful Bidder(s) [Docket No. 248] (the Sale Order), authorizing the sale of substantially all of the Debtors assets to FortuNet, Inc., as the assignee of the Purchaser. The sale pursuant to the Sale Order (the Sale) closed on October 1, 2012. The proceeds from the Sale will be used to fund Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims, as detailed in Article IV.B below.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtors no longer utilized the Las Vegas Facility and filed their Motion for Entry of an Order Under Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code Authorizing the Debtors to Reject a Nonresidential Real Property Lease. By order dated July 18, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to reject the lease for the Las Vegas Facility nunc pro tunc as of July 3, 2012. I. Rejection of Executory Contracts and Leases

On October [__], 2012, the Debtors filed the Omnibus Motion of the Debtors for an Order Authorizing Them to Reject Certain Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases, Nunc Pro Tunc as of the Rejection Date [Docket No. ____]. Pursuant to this motion, the Debtors sought authority to reject substantially all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that were assumed and assigned in connection with the Sale. J. Avoidance Actions and Other Causes of Action

Under Sections 547 and 550 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors Estates may seek, and reserve all rights on behalf of the Liquidating Trust, to avoid and recover all transfers made by a Debtor to or for the benefit of a Creditor, in the ninety days prior to the Petition Date, for or on account of an antecedent debt if such transfer was made when the Debtor was insolvent. Transfers made to a creditor that was an insider of a Debtor are subject to these provisions if the payment was made within one year of the Petition Date. A preliminary list of the transfers made by the Debtors within the 90-days (and one-year for insiders) prior to the Petition Date is included in each of the Debtors Statement of Financial Affairs filed in the Chapter 11 Cases. All Causes of Action arising under Sections 547 and 550 of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether the transfer is included in a Debtors Statement of Financial Affairs, are preserved under the Plan and shall vest in, and be transferred to, the Liquidating Trust on the Effective Date, to be pursued by the Liquidating Trustee, in his or her sole discretion, for the benefit of the Liquidating Trust. To date, the Debtors have not completed an analysis of the merits of any actions to avoid and recover any such transfers. Under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Estates may seek, and reserve all rights on behalf of the Liquidating Trust, to avoid and recover all transfers (x) made with either the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which a Debtor was or became, on or after the date that such transfer was made, indebted, or (y) to the extent that the Debtor received less than a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for such transfer and the Debtor either (i) was insolvent or became insolvent, (ii) was engaged or was about to be engaged in business with an unreasonably small capital, (iii) intended to incur, or believed it would incur, debts that would be beyond the Debtors ability to pay as they matured, or (iv) made such transfer to or for the benefit of an insider, or incurred an obligation to or for the benefit of an insider, under an employment contract and not in the ordinary course of business. In addition, Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code enables the Estates to avail themselves of state laws addressing fraudulent

conveyances and other types of transfers, including, without limitation, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act. All Causes of Action arising under Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code are preserved under the Plan and shall vest in, and be transferred to, the Liquidating Trust on the Effective Date, to be pursued by the Liquidating Trustee, in his sole discretion, for the benefit of the Liquidating Trust. ARTICLE III SUMMARY OF THE PLAN A. General

The Plan is a plan of liquidation that contemplates the complete liquidation of the assets of the Debtors, the creation of the Liquidating Trust and distribution of all proceeds resulting therefrom. The Plan is premised on the substantive consolidation of all of the Debtors with respect to the treatment of all Claims and Interests, except for the Other Secured Claims in Class 1. This means that the Debtors propose to satisfy Allowed Claims from a common pool comprised of the Debtors remaining assets. In general, all remaining assets of the Estates will vest in the Liquidating Trust for disposition by the Liquidating Trustee for the benefit of the beneficiaries thereof. B. Classification and Treatment of Claims and Interests

The Debtors estimate that at the conclusion of the Claims objection, reconciliation and resolution process, the aggregate amount of Allowed Claims will be as follows: (i) Allowed Administrative Expense Claims (exclusive of Professional Fee Claims): $[________]; (ii) Other Secured Claims: $[__________]; (iii) Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claims: $[________]; (iv) Allowed Priority Tax Claims: $[________]; and (v) Allowed General Unsecured Claims: $[_________]. The estimates set forth herein are approximate and based upon numerous assumptions and there is no guarantee that the ultimate amount of Allowed Claims will conform to these estimates. Claims may be filed or identified during the Claims objections, reconciliation and resolution process that may materially affect the foregoing estimates. Although the Debtors believe that certain claims are without merit, and objections will likely be filed to such claims, there can be no assurance that these objections will be successful. 1. Unclassified Claims a. Administrative Claims

Within the time period provided in Article VIII of the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Expense Claim shall receive in full and final satisfaction, settlement, and release of and in exchange for such Allowed Administrative Expense Claim: (a) Cash equal to the amount of such Allowed Administrative Expense Claim; or (b) such other treatment as to which the Debtors, in consultation with the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, and the Holder of such Allowed Administrative Expense Claim shall have agreed upon in writing. Holders of Administrative Expense Claims, other than 503(b)(9) Claims and Professional

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

13

Fee Claims, shall file with the Claims Agent and serve on the Liquidating Trustee requests for payment, in writing, together with supporting documents, substantially complying with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the Local Rules, so as to actually be received on or before the applicable Administrative Expense Bar Date. Any such Claim not filed by the applicable Administrative Expense Bar Date shall be deemed waived and the Holder of such Claim shall be forever barred from receiving payment on account thereof. The notice of Confirmation to be delivered pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 2002(c)(3) and 2002(f) shall set forth the Administrative Expense Bar Date and shall constitute notice of such Bar Date. The Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, shall have thirty (30) days (or such longer period as may be allowed by order of the Bankruptcy Court) following the Administrative Expense Bar Date to review and object to such Administrative Expense Claims. b. Professional Fee Applications

Professional Fee Claims are Administrative Expense Claims and all applications for allowance and payment of Professional Fee Claims shall be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the Professional Fee Bar Date. If an application for a Professional Fee Claim is not Filed by the Professional Fee Bar Date, such Professional Fee Claim shall be deemed waived and the Holder of such Claim shall be forever barred from receiving payment on account thereof. The notice of Confirmation to be delivered pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 2002(c)(3) and 2002(f) shall set forth the Professional Fee Bar Date and shall constitute notice of such Bar Date. c. U.S. Trustee Fees

All fees payable on or before the Effective Date pursuant to section 1930 of Title 28 of the United States Code shall be paid by the Debtors on or before the Effective Date. From and after the Effective Date, the Liquidating Trust shall be liable and shall pay the fees assessed against the Debtors Estates until such time as a particular Debtors Chapter 11 Case is closed, dismissed or converted. d. Priority Tax Claims

Within the time period provided in Article VII of the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim shall receive in full and final satisfaction, settlement, and release of and in exchange for such Allowed Priority Tax Claim: (a) Cash equal to the amount of such Allowed Priority Tax Claim; or (b) such other treatment as to which the Debtors, in consultation with the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee, as appropriate, and the Holder of such Allowed Priority Tax Claim shall have agreed upon in writing. 2. Classification and Treatment of Claims and Interests

The categories of Claims and Interests listed below classify Claims against and Interests in the Debtors for all purposes, including voting, confirmation and distribution, and pursuant to sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. A Claim or Interest shall be deemed classified in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of that Class and shall be deemed classified in a different Class to the extent that any remainder of such Claim or Interest qualifies within the description of such different Class. A Claim or Interest is in a particular class only to the extent that such Claim or Interest is Allowed
PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

14

in that Class and has not been paid or otherwise satisfied prior to the Effective Date. The Plan classifies and treats other Claims and Interests as follows: a. Class 1 Other Secured Claims Class 1 comprises the Other Secured Claims

(i) Classification: against the Debtors.

(ii) Treatment: The Plan will not alter any of the legal, equitable and contractual rights of the Holders of Other Secured Claims. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Holder of an Allowed Other Secured Claim and the Plan Proponents, each Holder of an Allowed Other Secured Claim shall receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed Other Secured Claim, one of the following treatments, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date in the discretion of the Liquidating Trustee: (i) the collateral subject to the Allowed Other Secured Claim shall be abandoned to the Creditor as of the Effective Date in full satisfaction of the Allowed Other Secured Claim; (ii) the payment in cash equal to the amount of such Allowed Other Secured Claim; or (iii) treatment in any other manner so as to render the Allowed Other Secured Claim otherwise Unimpaired. (iii) Estimated Amount: The Debtors estimate that there will be $[______] in Allowed Other Secured Claims. b. Class 2 Priority Non-Tax Claims

(i) Classification: Class 2 comprises the Priority Non-Tax Claims against the Debtors. (ii) Treatment: Within the time period provided in Article VII of the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claim shall receive in full and final satisfaction, settlement, and release of and in exchange for such Allowed Class 2 Claim: (A) Cash equal to the amount of such Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claim; or (B) such other treatment which the Debtors, in consultation with counsel to the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, and the Holder of such Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claim have agreed upon in writing.

(i) Classification: Class 3 comprises the General Unsecured Claims against the Debtors. (ii) Treatment: Within the time period provided in Article VIII of the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall receive in full and final satisfaction, settlement, and release of and in exchange for such Allowed

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

15

Class 3 Claim its Pro Rata share of Liquidating Trust Assets remaining after payment in full in Cash of all Allowed Administrative Expense Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims, Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claims and any expenses of the Liquidating Trust. (iii) Estimated Amount: The Debtors estimate that there will be approximately $[______] in Allowed General Unsecured Claims. d. Class 4 Interests (i) Classification: Class 4 comprises the Interests in the Debtors.

(ii) Treatment: On the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Interest in the Debtors shall not receive or retain any Distribution or other property on account of such Interests under the Plan; provided, however, that if prior to the closing of these Chapter 11 Cases the Liquidating Trustee determines that Residual Equity Assets are available for distribution to Holders of Allowed Interests, then, upon reasonable notice to Holders of Allowed Interest as of the Effective Date, and to the United States Trustee, the Liquidating Trustee will file a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting approval of procedures for making distributions to Holders of Interests as of the Effective Date. The Debtors do not currently believe that any assets will be available for distribution to Holders of Allowed Interests. Any Distributions that may be made on account of Allowed Interests shall be made on a Pro Rata basis based upon the number of shares of stock in the Debtors comprising Allowed Interests. C. Provisions for Implementation of the Plan

1. Funding of the Plan. The Plan will be funded by the Cash held by the Debtors as of the Effective Date, and thereafter by the proceeds of the Liquidating Trust Assets. 2. Substantive Consolidation of the Debtors. The Plan provides for the substantive consolidation of the Debtors with respect to the voting and treatment of all Claims and Interests except Claims classified in Class 1 - Other Secured Claims. Section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code empowers a bankruptcy court to authorize substantive consolidation. The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has adopted a standard for granting a request for substantive consolidation similar to the standards adopted by other Circuits authorizing substantive consolidation. See In re Owens Corning, 419 F.3d 195,211 (3d Cir. 2005); Reider v. F.D.I.C. (In re Reider), 31 F.3d 1102, 1107-1108 (11th Cir. 1994); Woburn Assoc. v. Kahn (In re Hemingway Transport Inc.), 954 F.2d 1,11-12 (1st Cir. 1992); First Nat' I Bank of El Dorado v. Giller (In re Giller), 962 F.2d 796, 798-99 (8th Cir. 1992); Union Sav. Bank. v. Augie/Restivo Baking Co. (In re Augie/Restivo Baking Co.) 860 F.2d 515,518 (2d Cir. 1988); Drabkin v. Midland-Ross Corp. (In re Auto-Train Corp.), 810 F.2d 270,276 (D.C. Cir. 1987). In the Third Circuit, debtors seeking substantive consolidation must show either (i) prepetition they disregarded separateness so significantly their creditors relied on the breakdown of entity borders and treated them as one legal entity, or (ii) postpetition their assets and

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

16

liabilities are so scrambled that separating them is prohibitive and hurts all creditors. Owens Coming, 419 F.3d at 211 (emphasis added). A prima facie case for [the first rationale] typically exists when, based on the parties prepetition dealings, a proponent proves corporate disregard creating contractual expectations of creditors that they were dealing with debtors as one indistinguishable entity. Id. at 212. The facts of these Chapter 11 Cases necessitate substantive consolidation, and substantive consolidation is warranted under the aforementioned tests. There is ample evidence that prior to the Petition Date, Creditors of the Debtors treated them as one legal entity. The Debtors prepared and disseminated consolidated financial reports to the public, including customers, suppliers, landlords, lenders, and credit rating agencies. Because the Debtors disseminated financial information to the public on a consolidated basis, it is highly unlikely that Creditors relied on the separate identity of any Debtor in extending credit to such Debtor. In addition, the Claims and scheduled assets of Debtors other than GII are minimal, further emphasizing the consolidated nature of the Debtors businesses. Because financial information disseminated to customers, suppliers, landlords, lenders, and credit rating agencies, has been prepared and presented on a consolidated basis, it is clear that Creditors treated the Debtors as one legal entity when deciding whether to extend credit. Substantive consolidation would ensure that all of the Debtors creditors, having relied on the creditworthiness of the Debtors as a unit, receive the benefit of a distribution in satisfaction of their claims from the single pool of assets. Thus, substantive consolidation is warranted in this case under the test set forth by the Third Circuit. Several courts within the Third Circuit have acknowledged the existence and application of substantive consolidation of separate bankruptcy estates in appropriate circumstances. See In re Molnar Bros., 200 B.R. 555 (Bankr. D.NJ. 1996) (recognizing the application of substantive consolidation of two or more bankruptcy estates); In re PWS Holding Corp., Case No. 98-212223 (SLR) (D. Del. 1998) (approving substantive consolidation of debtors pursuant to a plan of reorganization); Bracaglia v. Manzo (In re United Stairs Corp.), 176 B.R. 359, 368 (Bankr. D.NJ. 1995) (stating that it is well established that in the appropriate circumstances the court may substantively consolidate corporate entities); In re Buckhead Am. Corp., 1992 Bankr. LEXIS 2506 (Bankr. D. Del. Aug. 13, 1992) (substantively consolidating debtors); In re Cooper, 147 B.R. 678, 682 (Bankr. D.NJ. 1992). For the reasons set forth above, the Debtors and the Committee believe that the requirements for substantive consolidation of the Debtors with respect to voting and treatment of all Claims and Interests except for Class 1 Other Secured Claims, are satisfied. The Plan and Disclosure Statement do not seek substantive consolidation with respect to Class 1 Other Secured Claims. Thus, any lien conveyed by the Debtors that will be treated under Class 1 Other Secured Claims is unaffected by the limited substantive consolidation proposed in the Plan. The form of Ballot for Class 3 General Unsecured Claims will include a request for each voting Creditor to identify the Debtor against which such Creditor has a Claim. This request is being submitted on the Ballot in the event that the Court does not permit substantive consolidation of the cases. If substantive consolidation is not permitted, the Debtors and the Committee may request that the the Plan be confirmed on an unconsolidated basis as a separate Plan for each of the four Debtors.

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

17

In the event the case are substantively consolidated, all intercompany Claims and intercompany Interests will be extinguished except as necessary to preserve the Causes of Action and the other Liquidating Trust Assets. Further, all Claims which lie or could lie against more than one Debtor shall be Allowed, if at all, as a single claim against the Debtors Estates. 3. Appointment of the Liquidating Trustee. The appointment of the Liquidating Trustee shall be approved in the Confirmation Order, and such appointment shall be as of the Effective Date. In accordance with the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the Liquidating Trustee shall serve in such capacity through the earlier of (i) the date that the Liquidating Trust and the Reserves are dissolved in accordance with Article 7.9 of the Plan and (ii) the date such Liquidating Trustee resigns, is terminated or is otherwise unable to serve, provided, however, that, in the event that the Liquidating Trustee resigns, is terminated or is unable to serve, then the Court, upon the motion of any party-in-interest, shall approve a successor to serve as the Liquidating Trustee, and such successor Liquidating Trustee shall serve in such capacity until the Liquidating Trust is dissolved. 4. Establishment of a Liquidating Trust. On the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Liquidating Trustee shall execute the Liquidating Trust Agreement and shall have established the Liquidating Trust pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the terms of Article 7.3 of the Plan and the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the terms of the Liquidating Trust Agreement shall control. 5. Liquidating Trust Assets. Notwithstanding any prohibition of assignability under applicable non-bankruptcy law, on the Effective Date and periodically thereafter if additional Liquidating Trust Assets become available, the Debtors shall be deemed to have automatically transferred to the Liquidating Trust all of their right, title, and interest in and to all of the Liquidating Trust Assets, and in accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, all such assets shall automatically vest in the Liquidating Trust free and clear of all Claims and liens, subject only to the Allowed Claims of the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries as set forth in the Plan and the expenses of the Liquidating Trust as set forth herein and in the Liquidating Trust Agreement. Thereupon, the Debtors shall have no interest in or with respect to the Liquidating Trust Assets or the Liquidating Trust. In connection with any Causes of Action that are included in the Liquidating Trust Assets, any attorney-client privilege, work-product privilege, or other privilege or immunity attaching to any documents or communications thereto (whether written or oral) shall also exist for the benefit of the Liquidating Trust and shall vest in the Liquidating Trustee and its representatives, and shall also be preserved for and as to the Debtors. The Liquidating Trustee is authorized to take all necessary actions to benefit from such privileges. 6. Treatment of Liquidating Trust for Federal Income Tax Purposes; No Successor in-Interest. The Liquidating Trust shall be established for the primary purpose of liquidating its assets, in accordance with Treas. Reg. 301.7701-4(d), with no objective to continue or engage in the conduct of a trade or business, except to the extent reasonably necessary to, and consistent with, the liquidating purpose of the Liquidating Trust. Accordingly, the Liquidating Trustee

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

18

shall, in an expeditious but orderly manner, liquidate and convert to Cash the Liquidating Trust Assets, including the Causes of Action, make timely distributions to the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries and not unduly prolong its duration. The Liquidating Trust shall not be deemed a successor-in-interest of the Debtors for any purpose other than as specifically set forth herein or in the Liquidating Trust Agreement. The Liquidating Trust is intended to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes with the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries treated as grantors and owners of the Liquidating Trust. For all federal income tax purposes, all parties (including, without limitation, the Debtors, the Liquidating Trustee, and the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries) shall treat the transfer of the Liquidating Trust Assets by the Debtors to the Liquidating Trust, as set forth in the Liquidating Trust Agreement, as a transfer of such assets by the Debtors to the Holders of Allowed Claims of Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries entitled to distributions from the Liquidating Trust Assets, followed by a transfer by such Holders to the Liquidating Trust. Thus, the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries shall be treated as the grantors and owners of a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, the Liquidating Trustee (to the extent that the Liquidating Trustee deems it necessary or appropriate in his or her sole discretion) shall value the Liquidating Trust Assets based on the good faith determination of the value of such Liquidating Trust Assets. The valuation shall be used consistently by all parties (including the Debtors, the Liquidating Trustee, and the Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries) for all federal income tax purposes. The Bankruptcy Court shall resolve any dispute regarding the valuation of the Liquidating Trust Assets. The right and power of the Liquidating Trustee to invest the Liquidating Trust Assets transferred to the Liquidating Trust, the proceeds thereof, or any income earned by the Liquidating Trust, shall be limited to the right and power to invest such Liquidating Trust Assets (pending distributions in accordance with the Plan) in Permissible Investments; provided, however, that the scope of any such Permissible Investments shall be limited to include only those investments that a liquidating trust, within the meaning of Treas. Reg. 301.7701-4(d), may be permitted to hold, pursuant to the Treasury Regulations, or any modification in the IRS guidelines, whether set forth in IRS rulings, other IRS pronouncements, or otherwise. 7. Responsibilities of Liquidating Trustee; Litigation. The responsibilities of the Liquidating Trustee shall include, but shall not be limited to: a. the making of Distributions as contemplated herein;

The Liquidating Trustee shall not be obligated to obtain a bond but may do so, in his sole discretion, in which case the expense incurred by such bonding shall be paid by the Liquidating Trust. 10. Fiduciary Duties of the Liquidating Trustee. Pursuant to the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the Liquidating Trustee shall act in a fiduciary capacity on behalf of the interests of all Holders all Claims and Interests that will receive Distributions pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement. 11. Dissolution of the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidating Trust shall be dissolved no later than five (5) years from the Effective Date unless the Bankruptcy Court, upon a motion Filed prior to the fifth anniversary or the end of any extension period approved by the Bankruptcy Court (the Filing of which shall automatically extend the term of the Liquidating Trust pending the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court granting or denying the motion), determines that a fixed period extension is necessary to facilitate or complete the recovery and liquidation of the Liquidating Trust Assets. After (a) the final Distribution of the Reserves and the balance of the assets or proceeds of the Liquidating Trust pursuant to the Plan, and (b) the Filing by or on behalf of the Liquidating Trust of a certification of dissolution with the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the Plan, the Liquidating Trust shall be deemed dissolved for all purposes without the necessity for any other or further actions. 12. Liability, Indemnification of the Liquidating Trust Protected Parties. The Liquidating Trust Protected Parties shall not be liable for any act or omission of any other member, designee, agent, or representative of such Liquidating Trust Protected Parties, nor shall such Liquidating Trust Protected Parties be liable for any act or omission taken or not taken in their capacity as Liquidating Trust Protected Parties other than for specific acts or omissions resulting from such Liquidating Trust Protected Parties willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud. The Liquidating Trustee may, in connection with the performance of his functions, and in his sole and absolute discretion, consult with his attorneys, accountants, financial advisors and agents, and shall not be liable for any act taken, omitted to be taken, or suffered to be done in accordance with advice or opinions rendered by such entities, regardless of whether such advice or opinions are provided in writing. Notwithstanding such authority, the Liquidating Trustee shall not be under any obligation to consult with his attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, and agents, and his determination not to do so shall not result in the imposition of liability on the

Liquidating Trustee or the Liquidating Trust Protected Parties, unless such determination is based on willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud.

Full and Final Satisfaction against Liquidating Trust. On and after the Effective Date, the Liquidating Trust shall have no liability on account of any Claims or Interests except as set forth in the Plan and in the Liquidating Trust Agreement.

On the Effective Date, all instruments evidencing or creating any indebtedness or obligation of the Debtors, except such instruments that are authorized or issued under the Plan, shall be canceled and extinguished.

Plan. 2. Funding of Reserves.

a. With respect to the Disputed Administrative, Priority Tax, and Priority Non-Tax Claims Reserve and the Disputed General Unsecured Claims Reserve, the amount of Cash deposited into each of the foregoing reserves shall be equal to the percentage of Cash that Holders of Disputed Claims in each reserve would be entitled under the Plan if such Disputed Claims were Allowed Claims in the amount of such Disputed Claim or such lesser amount as authorized in Article 8.2 (c) of the Plan. b. With respect to the Liquidating Trust Expense Reserve, the amount of Cash deposited into such reserve shall be equal to the amount of Cash necessary to fund the expenses expected to be incurred by the Liquidating Trust as determined, in the Liquidating Trustees sole discretion. c. For the purposes of effectuating the provisions of Article VIII of the Plan and the Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims, the Liquidating Trustee may, at any time and regardless of whether an objection to a Disputed Claim has been brought, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate, set, fix, or liquidate the amount of such Disputed Claims pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, in which event the amounts so estimated, fixed, or liquidated shall be deemed the Allowed amounts of such Claims for purposes of Distribution under the Plan and establishment of the necessary Reserve. In lieu of estimating, fixing or liquidating the amount of any Disputed Claims, the Bankruptcy Court may determine the amount to be reserved for such Disputed Claims (singularly or in the aggregate), or such amount may be fixed by an agreement in writing by and between the Liquidating Trustee and the Holder of such Disputed Claims. d.

Timing of Distributions.

a. The Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee shall pay each Allowed Administrative Expense Claim, Allowed Priority Tax Claim, Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claim, and Allowed Unsecured Claim on the later of: i. ii. Order, iii. the date on which, in the ordinary course of business, such Allowed Claim becomes due, or iv. such other date as may be agreed upon by the Debtors, in consultation with the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, and the Holder of such Allowed Claim. b. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, in the sole discretion of the Liquidating Trustee, the Liquidating Trustee shall make Distribution of the available Cash included in the Liquidating Trust Assets in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the Confirmation Order, to the Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, provided that the Reserves are established. The Liquidating Trustee shall make additional Distributions of available Cash comprising Liquidating Trust Assets as determined in the sole discretion of the Liquidating Trustee. c. Any Cash remaining in the Reserves after all Disputed Administrative Expense Claims, Disputed Priority Tax Claims, Disputed Priority Non-Tax Claims, and Disputed General Unsecured Claims have been resolved, and paid, as appropriate, and the costs and expenses of the Liquidating Trust have been fully paid, shall be available for Distributions in accordance with the Plan. d. Once all Disputed Administrative Expense Claims, Disputed Priority Tax Claims, and Disputed Priority Non-Tax Claims have been resolved, the Disputed Administrative, Priority Tax, and Priority Non-Tax Claims Reserve shall be dissolved. Once the Disputed General Unsecured Claims have been resolved, the Disputed General Unsecured Claims Reserve shall be dissolved.

If there are any residual Unclaimed Distributions at the time of the dissolution of the Liquidating Trust, such residual Unclaimed Distributions shall be donated to the ABI Endowment Fund, free of any restrictions thereon and notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. 6. Distributions upon Allowance of Disputed Claims. The Holder of a Disputed Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim subsequent to the Effective Date shall receive a Distribution from the applicable Reserve as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on the Effective Date of the Plan, the date on which such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim by Final

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

24

which such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim pursuant to a Final Order or by agreement of the parties in accordance with Article VIII of the Plan. Such Distributions shall be made in accordance with the Plan based upon the Distributions that would have been made to such Holder under the Plan if the Disputed Claim had been made an Allowed Claim on or prior to the Effective Date. No Holder of a Disputed Claim shall have any Claim against the applicable Reserve, the Liquidating Trustee, the Liquidating Trust, the Debtors or the Estates with respect to such Disputed Claim until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, and no Holder of a Disputed Claim shall have any right to interest, dividends or other Distributions on such Disputed Claim except as provided in the Plan. 7. Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions.

a. Holding Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions. If the Distribution to any Holder of an Allowed Claim is returned to the Liquidating Trustee as undeliverable or is otherwise unclaimed, no additional Distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Liquidating Trustee is notified in writing of such Holders then-current address. Nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim. b. After Distributions Become Deliverable. The Liquidating Trustee shall make all Distributions that have become deliverable or have been claimed on and after the Distribution Date as soon as reasonably practicable after such Distribution has become deliverable or has been claimed. c. Failure to Claim Unclaimed/Undeliverable Distributions. Any Holder of an Allowed Claim that does not assert a claim pursuant to the Plan for an undeliverable or unclaimed Distribution within three (3) months after the Distribution Date shall be deemed to have forfeited its right to such undeliverable or unclaimed Distribution and any subsequent Distribution on account of its Allowed Claim and shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting any such claim for an undeliverable or unclaimed Distribution or any subsequent Distribution on account of its Allowed Claim against the Debtors, their Estates, the Liquidating Trust or their property. In such cases, Unclaimed Distributions shall be paid to Holders of Allowed Claims on a Pro Rata basis according to the parameters set forth in Article 4 above within the time periods provided in Article 8.5 of the Plan, free of any restrictions thereon and notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. 8. Interest on Claims. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan, the Confirmation Order, or required by applicable bankruptcy law, post-petition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim. In the event the Liquidating Trustee determines that the value of the Liquidating Trust Assets exceed the aggregate amount of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, the Liquidating Trustee shall be permitted to pay interest on each Allowed General Unsecured Claim from available Liquidating Trust Assets at the Interest Rate, applied from and after the Petition Date until such Allowed General Unsecured Claims, with interest, are paid in full. 9. No Distribution in Excess of Allowed Amount of Claim. Notwithstanding

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

25

anything to the contrary herein, no Holder of an Allowed Claim will receive, in respect of such Claim, Distributions under the Plan in excess of the Allowed amount of such Claim. 10. Means of Cash Payment. Cash payments made pursuant to the Plan shall be in U.S. funds, by the means, including by check or wire transfer, determined by the Disbursing Agent. 11. Delivery of Distribution. Except as otherwise set forth in the Plan, Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be made (a) at the addresses set forth on the proofs of Claim Filed by such Holders (or at the last known addresses of such Holders if no proof of Claim is Filed or if the Disbursing Agent has been notified of a change of address), (b) at the addresses set forth in any written notices of address changes delivered to the Disbursing Agent, or (c) if no proof of Claim has been Filed and the Disbursing Agent has not received a written notice of a change of address, at the addresses reflected in the Schedules, if any. 12. Record Date for Distributions. The Disbursing Agent will have no obligation to recognize the transfer of, or the sale of any participation in, any Allowed Claim that occurs after the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, and will be entitled for all purposes herein to recognize and distribute only to those Holders of Allowed Claims that are Holders of such Claims, or participants therein, as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. The Disbursing Agent shall instead be entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes under the Plan with only those record holders stated on the official claims register as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. 13. No Distributions Pending Allowance. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no payments or Distributions by the Disbursing Agent shall be made with respect to all or any portion of a Disputed Claim unless and until all Objections to such Disputed Claim have been settled or withdrawn by agreement of the parties or have been determined by Final Order, and the Disputed Claim, or some portion thereof, has become an Allowed Claim; provided however, that the Debtors, with the consent of the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee, may in their discretion, pay any undisputed portion of a Disputed Claim. 14. Withholding and Reporting Requirements. In connection with the Plan and all Distributions hereunder, the Disbursing Agent shall, to the extent applicable, comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all Distributions hereunder shall be subject to any such withholding and reporting requirements. The Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take any and all actions that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements. Each Holder of an Allowed Claim shall be required to provide any information necessary to effect information reporting and the withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a Distribution pursuant to the Plan shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such Distribution. 15. Setoffs. The Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, may, but shall not be required to, setoff against any Claim and the payment or other Distribution to be made

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

26

pursuant to the Plan in respect of such Claim, claims of any nature whatsoever that a Debtor may have against the Holder of such Claim; provided, however, neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Disbursing Agent of any such claim that the Disbursing Agent may have against such Holder, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by such Holder and the Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable. 16. De Minimis Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, no payment of less than twenty-five dollars ($25.00) shall be made on account of any Allowed Claim. Whenever payment of a fraction of a dollar under the Plan would otherwise be called for, the actual payment will reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest dollar (up or down), with half dollars being rounded down. All Distributions not made pursuant to Article 7.19 of the Plan shall be treated as Unclaimed Distributions and are subject to Article 7.10 of the Plan. 17. Extensions of Time. The Liquidating Trustee may File a motion to extend any deadlines for the making of Distributions or the establishment of Reserves hereunder prior to the occurrence of any such deadlines, to the extent necessary, which deadlines shall be deemed automatically extended after the Filing of such motion, and pending the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court extending any such deadline. E. Provisions for Claims Estimation and Objections to Claims

1. Claims Objection Deadline; Prosecution of Claims Objections. Except as otherwise provided for in the Plan, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, but in no event later than the Claims Objection Deadline (unless extended, after notice to those Creditors who requested notice in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 2002, by an Order of the Bankruptcy Court), the Liquidating Trustee shall File Objections to Claims and serve such objections upon the Holders of each of the Claims to which Objections are made. The Liquidating Trustee shall be authorized to resolve all Disputed Claims by withdrawing or settling such Objections thereto, or by litigating to judgment in the Bankruptcy Court, or such other court having competent jurisdiction, the validity, nature, and/or amount thereof. If the Liquidating Trustee agrees with the Holder of a Disputed Claim to compromise, settle, and/or resolve a Disputed Claim by granting such Holder an Allowed Claim in the amount of $100,000 or less, then the Liquidating Trustee may compromise, settle, and/or resolve such Disputed Claim without Bankruptcy Court approval. Otherwise, the Liquidating Trustee may only compromise, settle, and/or resolve such Disputed Claim with Bankruptcy Court approval. 2. Estimation of Claims. The Disbursing Agent may, at any time, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtors, the Committee, or the Liquidating Trustee previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection. The Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation or a hearing concerning any objection to any Claim, including, without limitation, during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. Subject to the provisions of section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, in the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any Contingent or unliquidated Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute the maximum allowed amount of such Claim. If the estimated amount constitutes the maximum

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

27

allowed amount of such Claim, the Debtors or the Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, may pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation and resolution procedures are intended to be cumulative and not necessarily exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn, or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court. F. Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

1. Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Deemed Rejected. On the Effective Date, all of the Debtors Executory Contracts and unexpired leases will be deemed rejected as of the Effective Date in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except to the extent: (a) the Debtors previously have assumed, assumed and assigned or rejected such Executory Contract or unexpired lease, or (b) prior to the Effective Date, the Debtors have Filed a motion to assume, assume and assign, or reject an Executory Contract or unexpired lease on which the Bankruptcy Court has not ruled. Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of all rejections of Executory Contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to Article 9.1 of the Plan and sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. 2. Bar Date For Rejection Damages. If the rejection by the Debtors of an Executory Contract or an unexpired lease results in damages to the other party or parties to such Executory Contract or unexpired lease, a Claim for such damages shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or their properties or agents, successors, or assigns, unless a Proof of Claim is filed with the Claims Agent so as to actually be received on or before the Rejection Bar Date.

The Causes of Action include all claims or possible claims of the Debtors, whether presently known or unknown, including the rights and powers of a trustee and debtor-in-possession, possessed on the Petition Date or which arose as of or after the Petition Date, including but not limited to (i) all Causes of Action arising under any state or federal law for damages or other relief against any Person, (ii) all avoidance powers granted to the Debtor under the Bankruptcy Code and all causes of action and remedies available under, inter alia, Sections 502, 510, 541, 544, 545, 547 through 551 and 553 of the Bankruptcy Code; (iii) any

ARTICLE IV VOTING REQUIREMENTS, ACCEPTANCE AND CONFIRMATION OF THE PLAN A. General

The Bankruptcy Code requires that, in order to confirm the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court must make a series of findings concerning the Plan and the Debtors, including that (i) the Plan has classified Claims in a permissible manner; (ii) the Plan complies with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code; (iii) the Plan Proponents have complied with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code; (iv) the Plan Proponents have proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law; (v) the disclosure required by Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code has been made; (vi) the Plan has been accepted by the requisite votes of Holders of Claims

37

(except to the extent that cramdown is available under Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code) (see Acceptance of Plan and Confirmation Without Acceptance of All Impaired Classes below); (vii) the Plan is feasible and confirmation is not likely to be followed by the liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the Debtors under the Plan unless such liquidation or reorganization is proposed in the Plan; (viii) the Plan is in the best interests of all Holders of Claims in an Impaired Class by providing to such Holders on account of their Claims property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount that such Holder would receive or retain in a Chapter 7 liquidation, unless each Holder of a Claim in such Class has accepted the Plan; and (ix) all fees and expenses payable under 28 U.S.C. 1930, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the hearing on confirmation, have been paid or the Plan provides for the payment of such fees on the Effective Date. B. Parties in Interest Entitled to Vote

Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, only Classes of Claims that are impaired (as defined in Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the Plan are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. A Class is impaired if the legal, equitable or contractual rights to which the Claims of that Class entitled the Holders of such Claims are modified, other than by curing defaults and reinstating the Claims. Classes that are not impaired are not entitled to vote on the Plan and are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan. In addition, Classes that receive no distributions under the Plan are not entitled to vote on the Plan and are deemed to have rejected the Plan. C. Classes Impaired and Entitled to Vote under the Plan The following Class is Impaired under the Plan and entitled to vote on the Plan: Class 3 Claim General Unsecured Claims Status Impaired Voting Right Entitled to vote

Acceptances of the Plan are being solicited only from Holders of Claims in Class 3 that will or may receive consideration under the Plan.

IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO THE PLAN PROPONENTS, AND THE PLAN PROPONENTS REQUEST, THAT YOU VOTE PROMPTLY TO ACCEPT THE PLAN. 3. Voting

Pursuant to the Disclosure Statement Order (a copy of which is enclosed herewith solely for the purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan and not for the purpose of allowance of, or distribution on account of, a Claim and without prejudice to the rights of the Debtors in any other context, each Claim within a Class of Claims entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan will be temporarily Allowed in an amount equal to the amount of such Claim as set forth in a timely filed proof of claim (provided no objection to such Claim has been filed), or, if no proof of claim was filed, the amount of such Claim as set forth in the Schedules (provided that amount of such Claim is not listed as disputed, contingent or unliquidated). Moreover, each Claim to which an objection has been filed by [________], shall be temporarily Allowed for voting purposes only to the extent and in the manner and amount as may be set forth as the proposed allowed amount or classification in such objection, unless such Holder files a motion pursuant to Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 3018(a) no later than [________], at 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) and the Bankruptcy Court grants the motion temporarily allowing the Claim for purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan. E. Confirmation

The Bankruptcy Code requires the Bankruptcy Court, after notice, to conduct a hearing regarding whether the proponent has fulfilled the confirmation requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Confirmation Hearing has been scheduled for December [__], 2012 (prevailing Eastern Time) before the Honorable Peter J. Walsh, United States Bankruptcy Judge, United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, in his Courtroom on the 6th Floor, 824 Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801. The Confirmation Hearing may be adjourned
PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

39

from time to time by the Bankruptcy Court without further notice, except for an announcement at the Confirmation Hearing of the date to which the Confirmation Hearing has been adjourned, or an entry on the Bankruptcy Courts docket. At the Confirmation Hearing, the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan only if the requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code are met. F. Acceptance of Plan

As a condition to confirmation, the Bankruptcy Code requires that each class of impaired claims vote to accept the Plan, except under certain circumstances. See Confirmation Without Acceptance of All Impaired Classes below. A plan is accepted by an impaired class of claims if Holders of at least two-thirds in dollar amount and more than one-half in number of claims of those that vote in such class vote to accept the plan. Only those Holders of claims who actually vote count in these tabulations. Holders of claims who fail to vote are not counted as either accepting or rejecting a plan. In addition to this voting requirement, Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan be accepted by each Holder of a claim or interest in an impaired class or that the plan otherwise be found by the Bankruptcy Court to be in the best interests of each Holder of a claim or interest in such class. See Best Interests Test below. In addition, each impaired class must accept the plan for the plan to be confirmed without application of the fair and equitable and unfair discrimination tests in Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code discussed below. See Confirmation Without Acceptance of All Impaired Classes below. G. Confirmation Without Acceptance of All Impaired Classes

Because Holders of Interests in Class 4 are deemed to have rejected the Plan, the Plan Proponents are seeking confirmation of the Plan as to Class 4, and as to any other Class that votes to reject the Plan, pursuant to Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Code contains provisions for confirmation of a plan even if it is not accepted by all impaired classes, as long as at least one impaired class of claims or interests has accepted it. These socalled cramdown provisions are set forth in Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. A plan may be confirmed under the cramdown provisions if, in addition to satisfying all other requirements of Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, it (i) does not discriminate unfairly and (ii) is fair and equitable, with respect to each class of claims or interests that is impaired under, and has not accepted, the plan. As used by the Bankruptcy Code, the phrases discriminate unfairly and fair and equitable have specific meanings unique to bankruptcy law. The requirement that a plan not discriminate unfairly means, among other things, that a dissenting class must be treated substantially equally with respect to other classes of equal rank. The fair and equitable standard, also known as the absolute priority rule, requires, among other things, that unless a dissenting unsecured class of claims or a class of interests receives full compensation for its allowed claims or allowed interests, no Holder of claims or interests in any junior class may receive or retain any property on account of such claims or interests. More specifically, Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan can be confirmed under that section if: (i) with respect to a secured class, (a) the Holders of such claims retain the

liens securing such claims to the extent of the allowed amount of such claims and that each Holder of a claim of such class receives deferred cash payments totaling, and having a value at least equal to the allowed amount of such claim as of the plans effective date or (b) such Holders realize the indubitable equivalent of such claims; (ii) with respect to an unsecured claim, either (a) the impaired unsecured creditor must receive property of a value equal to the amount of its allowed claim, or (b) the Holders of claims that are junior to the claims of the dissenting class may not receive any property under the plan; or (iii) with respect to a class of interests, either (a) each Holder of an interest in such class must receive or retain on account of such interest property of a value, equal to the greater of the allowed amount of any fixed liquidation preference, to which such Holder is entitled, any fixed redemption price to which such Holder is entitled or the value of such interest, or (b) the Holder of any interest that is junior to the interest of such class may not receive or retain any property on account of such junior interest. H. Best Interests Test

In order to confirm the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court must independently determine that the Plan is in the best interests of each Holder of a Claim in any such impaired Class who has not voted to accept the Plan. Accordingly, if an impaired Class does not unanimously accept the Plan, the best interests test requires the Bankruptcy Court to find that the Plan provides to each member of such impaired Class a recovery on account of the Class members Claim that has a value, as of the Effective Date, at least equal to the value of the distribution that each such member would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date. I. Liquidation Analysis

By the time of proposed confirmation of the Plan, the Debtors will have liquidated substantially all of their assets or will be in the process of liquidating any remaining assets. The Plan Proponents believe that liquidation under Chapter 11 is more beneficial to the Holders of Allowed Claims than a liquidation under Chapter 7 because the Plan allows the Debtors remaining assets to be promptly administered pursuant to the trust formed pursuant to the Plan. Additionally, if these cases were to be converted to Chapter 7 cases, the Debtors Estates would incur the costs of payment of a statutorily allowed commission to the Chapter 7 trustee, as well as the costs of counsel and other professionals retained by the trustee. The Plan Proponents believe such amount would exceed the amount of expenses that will be incurred in implementing the Plan and winding up the affairs of the Debtors. Conversion also would likely delay the liquidation process and the ultimate distribution, if any, to Creditors. The Debtors Estates would also be obligated to pay all unpaid expenses incurred by the Debtors during these Chapter 11 Cases (such as compensation for Professionals) which are allowed in the Chapter 7 cases. Accordingly, the Proponents believe that Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests would receive less than anticipated under the Plan if the Chapter 11 Cases were converted to Chapter 7 cases. J. Feasibility Under Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code, the proponent must show that

confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtors or any successor to the Debtors (unless such liquidation or reorganization is proposed in the Plan). The Plan clearly complies with this requirement because all of the Debtors remaining assets will be distributed to Creditors pursuant to the terms of the Plan and, provided the Plan is confirmed and consummated, the Estates will no longer exist to be subject to future reorganization or liquidation. K. Compliance with the Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code

Section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the Plan comply with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan Proponents have considered each of these issues in the development of the Plan and believes that the Plan complies with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. ARTICLE V ALTERNATIVES TO CONFIRMATION AND CONSUMMATION OF THE PLAN The Plan Proponents believe the Plan affords Creditors the potential for the greatest realization on the Debtors assets and, therefore, is in the best interests of the Estates. If the Plan is not confirmed, the only viable alternatives are dismissal of the Chapter 11 Cases or conversion to Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. Neither of these alternatives is preferable to confirmation and consummation of the Plan. If the Chapter 11 Cases were dismissed, creditors would revert to a race to the courthouse, the result being that creditors would not receive a fair and equitable distribution of the Debtors remaining assets. The Plan Proponents believe that the Plan provides a greater recovery to creditors than would be achieved in a Chapter 7. Therefore, a Chapter 7 case is not an attractive or superior alternative to the Plan. Thus, the Plan represents the best available alternative for maximizing returns to Creditors. ARTICLE VI RISK FACTORS A. Allowed Claims May Exceed Estimates

Any Distributions are based upon the Plan Proponents good faith estimate of the total amount of Claims ultimately Allowed and the funds available for distribution. The actual amount of Allowed Claims in any Class could be greater than anticipated, which will impact the Distributions to be made to Holders of Allowed Claims. B. Plan May Not Be Accepted or Confirmed

The Proponents cannot provide assurances that the Plan will ultimately be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. Among other things, there is no certainty the Plan will be accepted by the requisite Class entitled to vote under the Plan. Thus, while the Proponents believe the Plan will be confirmable under the standards set forth in Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, there is no guarantee that the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan.

ARTICLE VII CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN Any discussion of United States federal tax issues set forth in this Disclosure Statement is written in connection with the solicitation of acceptance of a liquidation plan. Such discussion is not intended or written to be legal or tax advice to any person and is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any person for the purpose of avoiding any U.S. federal tax penalties that may be imposed on such person. Each creditor should seek advice based on its particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor. The following discussion addresses certain United States federal income tax consequences of the consummation of the Plan. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Tax Code), existing and proposed regulations thereunder, current administrative rulings, and judicial decisions as in effect on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly retroactively. No rulings or determinations by the Internal Revenue Service have been obtained or sought by the Proponents with respect to the Plan. An opinion of counsel has not been obtained with respect to the tax aspects of the Plan. This discussion does not purport to address the federal income tax consequences of the Plan to particular classes of taxpayers (such as foreign persons, S corporations, mutual funds, small business investment companies, regulated investment companies, broker-dealers, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations and financial institutions) or the state, local or foreign income and other tax consequences of the Plan. NO REPRESENTATIONS ARE MADE REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN TO ANY HOLDER OF A CLAIM OR INTEREST. EACH HOLDER OF A CLAIM OR INTEREST IS STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND IN THE PLAN. A. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Holders of Claims and Interests

A Holder of an Allowed Claim will generally recognize ordinary income to the extent that the amount of Cash or property received (or to be received) under the Plan is attributable to interest that accrued on a Claim but was not previously paid by the Debtors or included in income by the Holder of the Allowed Claim. Holders previously required to include in their gross income any accrued but unpaid interest on a Claim may be entitled to recognize a deductible loss to the extent such interest is not satisfied under the Plan. A Holder of an Allowed Claim will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the Holder's adjusted basis in its Claim and the amount realized by the Holder upon consummation of the Plan that is not attributable to accrued but unpaid interest. The amount realized will equal the sum of Cash and the fair market value of other consideration received (or to be received). The character of any gain or loss that is recognized will depend upon a number of factors, including the status of the Creditor, the nature of the Claim or Interest in its hands, whether the Claim or Equity Interest was purchased at a discount, whether and to what extent the Creditor has previously claimed a bad debt deduction with respect to the Claim or Interest, and the creditor's holding period of the Claim or Interest. If the Claim or Interest in the creditor's hands

PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

43

is a capital asset, the gain or loss realized will generally be characterized as a capital gain or loss. If the Creditor is a non-corporate taxpayer, such gain or loss will constitute long-term capital gain or loss if the creditor held such Claim or Interest for longer than one year or short-term capital gain or loss if the creditor held such Claim or Interest for one year or less. A Holder of an Allowed Claim who receives, in respect of its Claim, an amount that is less than its tax basis in such Claim may be entitled to a bad debt deduction if either: (i) the Holder is a corporation or (ii) the Claim constituted (a) a debt created or acquired (as the case may be) in connection with a trade or business of the Holder or (b) a debt the loss from the worthlessness of which is incurred in the Holders trade or business. A Holder that has previously recognized a loss or deduction in respect of its Claim may be required to include in its gross income (as ordinary income) any amounts received under the Plan to the extent such amounts exceed the Holder's adjusted basis in such Claim. Holders of Claims who were not previously required to include any accrued but unpaid interest in their gross income with respect to a Claim or Interest may be treated as receiving taxable interest income to the extent any consideration they receive under the Plan is allocable to such interest. Holders of a Claim constituting an installment obligation for tax purposes may be required to currently recognize any gain remaining with respect to such obligation if, pursuant to the Plan, the obligation is considered to be satisfied at other than its face value, distributed, transmitted, sold or otherwise disposed of within the meaning of Section 453B of the Tax Code. The Holders of Claims in Class 3 may receive only a partial Distribution on their Claims. The Holders of Interests in Class 4 will not retain any interest in the Liquidating Trust as described above. Whether the Holder of such Claims or Interests will recognize gain or loss, a deduction for worthless securities or any other tax treatment will depend upon facts and circumstances that are specific to the nature of the Holder and its Claims or Interests. Accordingly, to determine any tax consequences as a result of consummation of the Plan, Holders of Claims and Interests should consult their respective tax advisors. Under backup withholding rules, a Holder of an Allowed Claim may be subject to backup withholding at the rate of twenty-eight percent (28%) with respect to payments made pursuant to the Plan unless such Holder (a) is a corporation or is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and, when required, demonstrates this fact or (b) provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies under penalty of perjury that the taxpayer identification number is correct and that the Holder is not subject to backup withholding because of failure to report all dividend and interest income. Any amount withheld under these rules will be credited against the Holder's federal income tax liability. Holders of Claims may be required to establish an exemption from backup withholding or to make arrangements with regard to payment thereof. B. Federal Income Tax Consequences to the Debtors 1. Cancellation of Indebtedness

Under the Tax Code, a taxpayer generally must include in gross income the amount of any cancellation of indebtedness income (COD Income) realized during the taxable year.
PHX 330396512v7 October 10, 2012

44

Section 108 of the Tax Code provides an exception to this general rule, however, if the cancellation occurs in a case under the Bankruptcy Code, but only if the taxpayer is under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and the cancellation is granted by the Bankruptcy Court or is pursuant to a plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Section 108 of the Tax Code requires the amount of COD Income so excluded from gross income to be applied to reduce certain tax attributes of the taxpayer. It is uncertain how these rules should apply in a liquidating plan which does not provide for a formal cancellation of claims. In any event, however, even if COD Income is realized and excluded by the Debtors and the tax attributes of the Debtors are reduced or eliminated, this should have no material affect, however, as following the Effective Date the Debtors will not own non-Cash assets of significant value. C. Importance of Obtaining Professional Tax Assistance

The foregoing is intended to be only a summary of certain of the United States federal income tax consequences of the Plan and is not a substitute for careful tax planning with a tax professional. Holders of Claims or Interests are strongly urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax consequences of the Plan, including, in addition to the issues discussed above, whether a bad debt deduction may be available with respect to their Claims and if so, when such deduction or loss would be available. THE FOREGOING DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. ACCORDINGLY, HOLDERS OF CLAIMS OR INTERESTS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PLAN, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS. ARTICLE VIII RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION THE PLAN PROPONENTS BELIEVE THAT CONFIRMATION AND CONSUMMATION OF THE PLAN IS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF CREDITORS AND THAT THE PLAN SHOULD BE CONFIRMED. THE PLAN PROPONENTS STRONGLY RECOMMEND ALL CREDITORS WHO RECEIVE A BALLOT TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE PLAN. [SIGNATURES ON NEXT PAGE]
