ARTICLE VII

MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

7.1 Substantive Consolidation for Purposes of Treating Impaired Claims. This Plan is a joint Plan that does not provide for substantive consolidation of the Estates; however, the Debtors reserve the right to request substantive consolidation prior to the Confirmation Hearing.

7.2 Continued Corporate Existence and Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors. After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to exist as separate corporate entities in accordance with the applicable law in the respective jurisdiction in which they are incorporated and pursuant to their respective certificates or Articles of incorporation and by-laws in effect prior to the Effective Date, except to the extent such certificates or Articles of incorporation and by-laws are amended under this Plan. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Plan, the Unimpaired Claims of a particular Debtor or Reorganized Debtor shall remain the obligations solely of such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor and shall not become obligations of any other Debtor or Reorganized Debtor by virtue of this Plan, the Chapter 11 Cases, or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors may pay the charges that they incur on or after the Effective Date for professionals’ fees, disbursements, expenses, or related support services without application to the Bankruptcy Court.

7.3 Preservation of Causes of Action. In accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors will retain and may (but are not required to) enforce all Retained Actions. After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to bring, settle, release, compromise, or enforce such Retained Actions (or decline to do any of the foregoing), without further approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Reorganized Debtors or any successors, in the exercise of their sole discretion, may pursue such Retained Actions so long as it is in the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors or any successors holding such rights of action. The failure of the Debtors to specifically list any claim, right of action, suit, proceeding or other Retained Action in this Plan does not, and will not be deemed to, constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of such claim, right of action, suit, proceeding or other Retained Action, and the Reorganized Debtors will retain the right to pursue such claims, rights of action, suits, proceedings and other Retained Actions in their sole discretion and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable, or otherwise) or laches will apply to such claim, right of action, suit, proceeding, or other Retained Action upon or after the confirmation or consummation of this Plan.

7.4 Corporate Governance, Directors, Officers, and Corporate Action.

(a) Certificates of Incorporation and By-Laws. Effective on the Effective Date, the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of Reorganized Group shall be amended and restated substantially as set forth in Exhibits 7.4(a) and 7.4(b), respectively, to the Plan, which shall (i) include, among other things, pursuant to

section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity securities, but only to the extent required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (ii) authorize the issuance of New Common Stock in an amount not less than the amount necessary to permit the distributions thereof required or contemplated by this Plan. In addition, the certificates or Articles of incorporation and by-laws of the Affiliate Debtors shall be amended as necessary to satisfy the provisions of this Plan and the Bankruptcy Code. On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as is practicable, the Reorganized Debtors shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in accordance with Section 303 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and any certificates setting forth the amendments to the certificates of incorporation of the Affiliate Debtors that are made pursuant to this Plan. After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may amend and restate their certificates or Articles of incorporation and by-laws as permitted by applicable law.

(b) Directors and Officers of the Reorganized Debtors. As of the Effective Date, the initial directors and officers of Reorganized Group shall be the persons identified in the Plan Supplement. The board of directors of Reorganized Group shall initially have five members, consisting of: (i) K. Paul Singh, the current CEO of Group, (ii) John F. DePodesta, the current Executive Vice President of Group, (iii) one member appointed by the holders of the Holding Notes Claims, (iv) one member appointed by the holders of the IHC Second Lien Note Claims, and (v) one member jointly appointed by the holders of the IHC Second Lien Note Claims and the Holding Notes Claims, after consultation with the Debtors. The boards of directors of the Reorganized Debtors other than Reorganized Group shall be comprised of members of the board of directors of Reorganized Group, or such other persons as are designated by the board of directors of Reorganized Group. The officers of the Reorganized Debtors other than Reorganized Group shall be comprised of the officers of Reorganized Group, or such other persons as are designated by the board of directors of Reorganized Group. Pursuant to section 1129(a)(5), the Debtors will disclose in the Plan Supplement the identity and affiliations of any person proposed to serve on the initial board of directors of Reorganized Group, and, to the extent such person is an insider other than by virtue of being a director, the nature of any compensation for such person. The classification and composition of the board of directors of each of the Reorganized Debtors shall be consistent with the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and the certificates or articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Affiliate Debtors; provided, however, that the length of the initial term of each director shall be two (2) years. Each such director and officer shall serve from and after the Effective Date pursuant to the terms of the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and the certificates or articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Affiliate Debtors, the other constituent documents of the Reorganized Debtors, and applicable law. Each member of the board of directors of each of the Debtors will be deemed to have resigned on the Effective Date.

(c) Corporate Action. On the Effective Date, the adoption of the Amended Certificate of Incorporation or similar constituent documents, the adoption of the Amended By-Laws, the selection of directors and officers for the Reorganized Debtors, and all other actions contemplated by this Plan shall be authorized and approved in all respects (subject to the provisions of this Plan). All matters provided for in this Plan involving the corporate structure of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and any corporate action required by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection with this Plan, shall be deemed to have timely occurred in accordance with applicable law and shall be in effect, without any requirement of further action by the security holders or directors of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors. On the Effective Date, the appropriate officers of the Reorganized Debtors and members of the boards of directors of the Reorganized Debtors are authorized and directed to issue, execute, and deliver the agreements, documents, securities, and instruments contemplated by this Plan in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors.

7.5 Cancellation of Notes, Instruments, Debentures, Preferred Stock and Common Stock. On the Effective Date, except as provided in (i) Section 5.3 with respect to the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan and (ii) Section 7.6(a) with respect to the Modified IHC Second Lien Notes, the Group Notes, the Holding Notes, the Old Common Stock, the indentures, or other instruments or documents evidencing, creating or governing any such indebtedness, equity interests or obligations of a Debtor that are Impaired under this Plan shall be cancelled and shall be discharged; provided, however, that the Group Notes, Holding Notes, Old Common Stock, the indentures, or other instruments or documents evidencing, creating or governing such indebtedness, equity interests or obligations of a Debtor shall continue in effect to the extent necessary to allow the Reorganized Debtors to make distributions pursuant to this Plan and to allow the Indenture Trustees to exercise any lien the Indenture Trustees may have under an indenture against distributions to holders of the Holding Notes Claims, the Group Note Claims or the IHC Second Lien Notes Claims. As of the Effective Date, all Old Common Stock that has been authorized to be issued but that has not been issued shall be deemed cancelled and extinguished without any further action of any party.

(b) Issuance of New Common Stock. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall issue all instruments, certificates and other documents, including but not limited to the New Common Stock required to be issued or distributed pursuant to this Plan without further act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule. The offer and issuance of the New Common Stock, and the distribution thereof, under this Plan shall be exempt from registration under applicable securities laws pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. In the period pending distribution of New Common Stock to any Holder entitled pursuant to this Plan to receive New Common Stock, such Holder shall be bound by, have the benefit of, and be entitled to enforce the terms and conditions of the New Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and shall be entitled to exercise any voting rights and receive any dividends or other distributions payable in respect of such Holder’s New Common Stock (including receiving any proceeds of permitted transfers of such New Common Stock) and to exercise all other rights in respect of the New Common Stock (so that such Holder shall be deemed for tax purposes to be the owner of the New Common Stock).

(c) Holding Warrants. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, Holders of Holding Notes Claims shall receive their Pro Rata share of the Holding Warrants. The offer and issuance of the Holding Warrants, and the distribution thereof, under this Plan shall be exempt from registration under applicable securities laws pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(d) Group Warrants. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, Holders of Group Notes Claims shall receive their Pro Rata share of the Group Warrants. The offer and issuance of the Group Warrants, and the distribution thereof, under this Plan shall be exempt from registration under applicable securities laws pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(f) Contingent Value Rights. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, Holders of Class 10(a) Interests shall receive their pro rata share of the CVRs. The issuance of the CVRs and the distribution thereof under this Plan shall be exempt from registration under applicable securities laws pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(g) Termination of Registration. Subject to any requirements of law, promptly following the Effective Date, Reorganized Group shall terminate the registration of its securities and suspend all reporting obligations pursuant to the Exchange Act.

(i) Execution and Delivery of the New Stockholders Agreement.

7.8 Reservation of Rights with Respect to Potential Additional Debtors. This Plan is premised in part on either (i) a consensual restructuring of the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan Claims, consistent with the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan Term Sheet, or (ii) should the First Lien Lenders attempt to exercise remedies against Non-Debtor Guarantors under the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan during these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors’ pursuit of the Reinstatement of the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan Claims and the consequent cure of bankruptcy-related defaults (including defaults, if any, arising from a change of control of the Debtors as a result of the transactions consummated in the Chapter 11 Cases) under the documents underlying the Holding Secured Term Loan or, in the absence of such cure, a temporary injunction preventing holders of Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan Claims from enforcing remedies on account of such bankruptcy-related defaults. To the extent such bankruptcy-related defaults cannot be cured and the Debtors cannot obtain the temporary injunction described above, the Debtors reserve the right, should the Potential Additional Debtors identified on Exhibit 1.90 attached hereto file petitions for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code prior to the Confirmation Hearing and become Additional Debtors, to make this Plan applicable to such Additional Debtors and to have Claims against such Additional Debtors receive treatment identical to similarly situated Claim Holders under this Plan.

ARTICLE VIII

TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

8.1 Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. On the Effective Date, all executory contracts or unexpired leases of the Debtors will be deemed assumed in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except those executory contracts and unexpired leases that (a) have been rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court or (b) are the subject of a motion to reject pending on the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of such assumptions pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each executory contract and unexpired lease assumed pursuant to this Article VIII shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the respective Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as modified by the provisions of this Plan, or any order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing and providing for its assumption or applicable federal law.

8.2 Cure of Defaults of Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. The provisions (if any) of each executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed under this Plan which are or may be in default shall be satisfied pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by payment of the default amount in Cash on the Effective Date or on such terms as the parties to each executory contract or unexpired lease may agree (“Cure”). Any party to an executory contract or unexpired lease who wishes to assert that Cure shall be required as a condition to assumption shall file and serve a proposed Cure Claim so as to be received by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and their counsel at the address set forth in Article 15.9 hereof within 45 days after entry of the Confirmation Order (the “Cure Claim Submission Deadline”), after which the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, shall have 45 days to file any objections thereto. Should a party to an executory contract or unexpired lease not file a proposed Cure Claim by the Cure Claim Submission Deadline in accordance with the procedures set forth herein, then any default then existing under such executory contract or unexpired lease shall be deemed cured as of the day following the Cure Claim Submission Deadline and such party shall forever be barred from asserting against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, a Claim that arose under such executory contract or unexpired lease on or prior to the Confirmation Date. If there is a dispute regarding (i) the nature or amount of any Cure, (ii) the ability of any Reorganized Debtor or any assignee to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the contract or lease to be assumed, or (iii) any other matter pertaining to assumption, the matter shall be set for hearing in the Bankruptcy Court on the next available hearing date, or such other date as may be agreed upon, and Cure, if any, shall occur following the entry of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court resolving the dispute and approving the assumption or assumption and assignment, as the case may be; provided, however, that if there is a dispute as to the amount of Cure that cannot be resolved consensually among the parties, the Debtors shall have the right to reject the contract or lease for a period of five days after entry of a Final Order establishing a Cure amount in excess of that asserted by the Debtors. If the Cure amount was filed and served in accordance with the procedures set forth herein and is not disputed, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, shall pay the Cure Claim, if any, to the claimant within a reasonable practicable period. Disputed Cure amounts that are resolved by agreement or Final Order shall be paid by the Debtors within 20 days of such agreement or Final Order.

8.3 Compensation and Benefit Programs. If applicable, and except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all employment and severance contracts and policies, and all compensation and benefit plans, policies, and programs of the Debtors applicable to their employees, retirees, and non-employee directors and the employees and retirees of their respective subsidiaries, including, without limitation, all savings plans, retirement plans, healthcare plans, disability plans, severance benefit plans, incentive plans, life, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans and contracts are treated as executory contracts under this Plan and on the Effective Date will be assumed pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to any and all rights of the Reorganized Debtors to amend or terminate any of the foregoing.

8.4 Intercompany Executory Contracts and Intercompany Unexpired Leases. Any Claim outstanding at the time of assumption of an intercompany executory contract or an intercompany unexpired lease shall be Reinstated and shall be satisfied in a manner to be agreed upon by the relevant Debtors and/or non-Debtor Affiliates.

ARTICLE IX

PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS

9.1 Distributions for Claims as of the Effective Date. Except as otherwise provided herein or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, distributions to be made on account of Claims as of the Effective Date, shall be made on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable. Any distribution to be made on the Effective Date pursuant to this Plan shall be deemed as having been made on the Effective Date if such distribution is made on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable. Any payment or distribution required to be made under this Plan on a day other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. Notwithstanding the date on which any distribution of securities is made to a Holder of a Claim, as of the date of the distribution such Holder shall be deemed to have the rights of a Holder of such securities (subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan) distributed as of the Effective Date.

9.2 Interest on Claims. Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan, the Confirmation Order or other order of the Bankruptcy Court, or required by applicable bankruptcy law, postpetition 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.

9.3 Distributions by Disbursing Agent. Other than as specifically set forth below, the Disbursing Agent or applicable Indenture Trustee or the administrative agent under the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan shall make all distributions required to be made under this Plan. The Reorganized Debtors may act as Disbursing Agent or may employ or contract with other entities to assist in or make the distributions required by this Plan.

9.4 Surrender of Cancelled Instruments or Securities. As a condition precedent to receiving any distribution on account of a Claim or Interest, each Holder of an instrument evidencing a Claim or Interest (a “Certificate”) shall be deemed to have surrendered the Certificates, or, with respect to indebtedness that is governed by an agreement and administered by an Indenture Trustee, agent, or servicer (each hereinafter referred to as a “Servicer”), the respective Servicer, and such Certificate will be cancelled solely with respect to the Debtors and such cancellation will not alter the obligations or rights of any non-Debtor third parties vis-à-vis one another to such instruments. Servicer may (but shall not be required to) request that registered Holders of Certificates surrender their Certificates for cancellation. The surrender requirement does not apply to any Claims or Interests Reinstated pursuant to the terms of this Plan.

9.5 Delivery of Distributions and Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions.

(a) Delivery of Distributions in General. Distributions to Holders of Claims and Interests shall be made at the addresses set forth in the Debtors’ records unless such addresses are superseded by proofs of claim or transfers of claim filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3001.

(b) Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions.

(i) Holding and Investment of Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions. If the distribution to any Holder of a Claim or Interest is returned to the Reorganized Debtors or the Disbursing Agent as undeliverable or is otherwise unclaimed, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Reorganized Debtors or the Disbursing Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then current address.

(ii) After Distributions Become Deliverable. The Disbursing Agent shall make all distributions that have become deliverable or have been claimed since the Distribution Date as soon as practicable after such distribution has become deliverable or been claimed.

(iii) Failure to Claim Undeliverable Distributions. Any Holder of a Claim or Interest that does not assert a Claim pursuant to this Plan for an undeliverable or

unclaimed distribution within one (1) year after the Effective Date shall be deemed to have forfeited its Claim for such undeliverable or unclaimed distribution and shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting any such Claim for an undeliverable or unclaimed distribution against the Debtors or their Estates, the Reorganized Debtors or their property. Any New Common Stock held for distribution on account of such Claim shall be canceled and of no further force or effect. Nothing contained in this Plan shall require any Disbursing Agent, including, but not limited to, the Reorganized Debtors, to attempt to locate any Holder of a Claim or Interest.

9.6 Allocation of Plan Distributions Between Principal and Interest. To the extent that any Claim entitled to a distribution under this Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall, for all income tax purposes, be allocated to the principal amount of the Claim first and then, to the extent that the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to the portion of such Claim representing accrued but unpaid interest.

9.7 Withholding and Reporting Requirements. In connection with this Plan and all Distributions under this Plan, the Disbursing Agent shall, to the extent applicable, comply with all tax withholding, payment, and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, provincial, local, or foreign taxing authority, and all Distributions under this Plan shall be subject to any such withholding, payment, and reporting requirements. The Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding, payment, and reporting requirements. All amounts properly withheld from Distributions to a Holder as required by applicable law and paid over to the applicable taxing authority for the account of such Holder shall be treated as part of the Distributions to such Holder. All persons holding Claims or Interests shall be required to provide any information necessary to effect information reporting and withholding of such taxes. For example, with respect to any employee-related withholding, if the Debtors are obligated by law to withhold amounts from Distributions to a present or former employee to satisfy such present or former employee’s tax and other payroll obligations, the Disbursing Agent may withhold a portion of the Distributions allocated to the Holder of an Allowed Claim that is a present or former employee, whether or not such Distributions are in the form of Cash, in such amount as is determined necessary to satisfy such Holder’s tax and other payroll obligations with respect to the Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, except to the extent withheld from Distributions to the Holder, (a) each Holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a Distribution pursuant to this 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, and (b) no Distribution shall be made to or on behalf of such Holder pursuant to this Plan unless and until such Holder has made arrangements satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent for the payment and satisfaction of such withholding tax obligations or such tax obligation that would be imposed upon the Plan Administrator in connection with such Distribution. Any property to be distributed pursuant to this Plan shall, pending the implementation of such arrangements, be treated as an undeliverable Distribution pursuant to Section 9.5 of this Plan.

9.8 Setoffs. The Reorganized Debtors may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable nonbankruptcy laws, but shall not be required to, set off against any Claim or Interest, the payments or other distributions to be made pursuant to this Plan in respect of such Claim or Interest, the claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have against the Holder of such Claim or Interest; provided, however, that neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim or Interest hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Reorganized Debtors of any such claim that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have against such Holder.

9.9 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of New Common Stock shall be distributed. Where a fractional share would otherwise be called for, the actual issuance shall reflect a rounding up (in the case of .50 or more than .50) of such fraction to the nearest whole New Common Stock share or a rounding down of such fraction (in the case of less than ..50) to the nearest whole New Common Stock share.

ARTICLE X

PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED, CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS

10.1 Reservation of Right to Object to Allowance or Asserted Priority of Claims. Nothing in this Plan shall waive, prejudice or otherwise affect the rights of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Holders of any Claim to object at any time, including after the Effective Date, to the validity or asserted priority of any Claim, including without limitation, whether any such Claim should be treated as a Subordinated Claim. Moreover, the Debtors reserve the right to dispute, contest, or offset against, any Reinstated Claim following or prior to the Effective Date, either in the Bankruptcy Court or in the ordinary course in such manner or tribunal as may otherwise be appropriate.

ARTICLE XI

ALLOWANCE AND PAYMENT OF CERTAIN ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIMS

11.1 Professional Claims.

(a) All final requests for payment of Professional Fees pursuant to Sections 327, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code must be made by application filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served on the Reorganized Debtors, their counsel, counsel to any statutory committee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases, and other necessary parties-in-interest no later than sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. Objections to such applications must be filed and served on the Reorganized Debtors, their counsel, counsel to any statutory committee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the requesting Professional or other entity on or before the date that is thirty (30) days (or such longer period as may be allowed by order of the Bankruptcy Court) after the date on which the applicable application was served.

(b) Upon the Effective Date, any requirement that Professionals comply with sections 327 through 331 of the Bankruptcy Code in seeking retention or compensation for services rendered after such date shall terminate, and the Reorganized Debtors shall employ and pay Professionals in the ordinary course of business.

11.2 Substantial Contribution Compensation and Expenses Bar Date. Any Person who requests compensation or expense reimbursement for making a substantial contribution in the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to sections 503(b)(3), (4), and (5) of the Bankruptcy Code shall file an application with the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court on or before the 45th day after the Effective Date (the “503 Deadline”), and serve such application on counsel for the Debtors and the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, and such other parties as may be decided by the Bankruptcy Court on or before the 503 Deadline, or be forever barred from seeking such compensation or expense reimbursement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Professionals employed by the Consenting Noteholders shall be entitled to file a substantial contribution request pursuant to section 503(b) and the Debtors shall support any such request for reimbursement of fees and expenses expended in pursuit of a consensual restructuring and consistent with the prepetition retention agreements between the Debtors and such Professionals employed by the Consenting Noteholders, provided that any such requests shall be in addition to, and will not limit, the right to receive fees and expenses as set forth in Sections 5.4 and 5.5. In addition, the Professionals employed by the Consenting First Lien Lenders shall be entitled to file a substantial contribution request pursuant to section 503(b) and the Debtors shall support any such request for reimbursement of fees and expenses expended in pursuit of a consensual restructuring as may be consistent with the Forbearance Agreement and the Holding First Lien Secured Term Loan Term Sheet, provided that any such requests shall be in addition to, and will not limit, the right to receive fees and expenses as set forth in Section 5.3.

11.3 Other Administrative Claims. All other requests for payment of an Administrative Claim (other than as set forth in Article 11.1 and Article 11.2 of this Plan) must be filed with the Claims Agent and served on counsel for the Debtors no later than 45 days after the Effective Date (the “Administrative Claims Bar Date”). Any request for payment of an Administrative Claim pursuant to this Article 11.3 that is not timely filed and served shall be disallowed automatically without the need for any objection from the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may settle an Administrative Claim without further Bankruptcy

Court approval. Unless the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors object to an Administrative Claim within 60 days after the Administrative Claims Bar Date (unless such objection period is extended by the Bankruptcy Court), such Administrative Claim shall be deemed allowed in the amount requested. In the event that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors object to an Administrative Claim, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine the allowed amount of such Administrative Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no request for payment of an Administrative Claim need be filed with respect to an Administrative Claim which is paid or payable in the ordinary course of business.
