MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION 5.1. SUBSTANTIVE CONSOLIDATION OF THE DEBTORS. (a) Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the approval, pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, effective as of the Effective Date, of the substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors for all purposes related to the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution. On and after the Effective Date, (i) all assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Debtors shall be treated, for purposes of the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution, as though they were merged, (ii) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of Reorganization on account of any Equity Interest held by a Consolidated Debtor in any other Consolidated Debtor, (iii) all guarantees of any Consolidated Debtor of the obligations of any other Consolidated Debtor shall be eliminated so that any Claim against any Consolidated Debtor and any guarantee thereof executed by any other Consolidated Debtor and any joint or several liability of any of the Consolidated Debtors shall be one obligation of the Consolidated Debtors and (iv) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the Reorganization Cases of any of the Consolidated Debtors shall be deemed filed against the Consolidated Debtors and shall be one Claim against and obligation of the Consolidated Debtors. (b) Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the approval, pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, effective as of the Effective Date, of the substantive consolidation of Consolidated Orion for all purposes related to the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution. On and after the Effective Date, (i) all assets and liabilities of Consolidated Orion shall be treated, for purposes of the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution, as though they were merged, (ii) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of Reorganization on account of any Equity Interest held by Consolidated Orion in any of Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries, (iii) all guarantees of Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries of any of Consolidated Orion shall be eliminated so that any Claim against Consolidated Orion and any guarantee thereof executed by Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries and any joint or several liability of any of Orion and its Debtor subsidiaries shall be one obligation of Consolidated Orion and (iv) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the Reorganization Cases of Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries shall be deemed filed against Consolidated Orion and shall be one Claim against and obligation of Consolidated Orion. The substantive consolidation effected pursuant to Subsections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) shall not (other than for purposes related to funding distributions under the Plan of Reorganization and as set forth above in such sections) affect: (i) the legal and organizational structure of the Debtors; (ii) pre and post-Commencement Date guarantees, Liens, and security interests that are required to be maintained (A) in 19 connection with executory contracts or unexpired leases that were entered into during the Reorganization Cases or that have been or will be assumed or (B) pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization; or (iii) distributions out of any insurance policies or proceeds of such policies. 5.2. COMPROMISE AND SETTLEMENT. The Debtors allege that substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors is appropriate. Certain holders of Loral General Unsecured Claims dispute this allegation. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, Alternative A in Subsection 4.5(a) and Alternative A in Subsection 4.6(a) of the Plan of Reorganization effect a proposed compromise and settlement of issues relating to the substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors, the designated value of the New Loral Common Stock for Plan of Reorganization purposes, and the assumed enterprise and equity values of the Reorganized Debtors. In order to resolve the dispute, holders of Loral General Unsecured Claims will receive a distribution premium pursuant to Alternative A in Subsection 4.5(a) of the Plan of Reorganization, as compared to Alternative B, if Class 5 accepts the Plan of Reorganization. 5.3. RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTIONS. (a) On the Effective Date, and in accordance with the terms of an order of the Supreme Court of Bermuda, the assets of Ltd. and Licensing Ltd. (including, without limitation, the Debtor Intercompany Claim against Loral Corp., subject to possible reduction in amount in accordance with Section 5.7 of the Plan of Reorganization) shall be transferred to New Loral or a wholly-owned first-tier subsidiary of New Loral in exchange for the New Loral Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims against Ltd. and Licensing Ltd. pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization. (b) On or as of the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable, within the discretion of the Debtors, but subject to the consent of the Creditors' Committee, and without further motion to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors may, notwithstanding any other transactions described in this Section 5.3, merge, dissolve, transfer assets, or otherwise consolidate any of the Debtors in furtherance of the Plan of Reorganization (including, without limitation, into one or more newly formed, wholly owned, direct or indirect subsidiaries of New Loral). It is the current intention of the Debtors to utilize this provision to merge, dissolve, or otherwise consolidate certain of their affiliates and transfer certain executory contracts, unexpired leases, and other assets to the surviving affiliates. Any such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors. A list of the subsidiaries that will be merged or dissolved and the assets to be transferred, will be included in the Plan Supplement, and may include : (i) the merger, dissolution or consolidation into New FSS of certain of the subsidiaries of Loral Corp. other than SS/L and its respective subsidiaries; and (ii) the merger, dissolution or consolidation into New SS/L of certain of the subsidiaries of SS/L. 5.4. CANCELLATION AND SURRENDER OF EXISTING SECURITIES AND AGREEMENTS. (a) Except (i) as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan of Reorganization, (ii) with respect to executory contracts or unexpired leases that have been assumed by the Debtors, (iii) for purposes of evidencing a right to distributions under the Plan of Reorganization, or (iv) with respect to any Claim that is reinstated and rendered unimpaired under the Plan of Reorganization, on the Effective Date, the promissory notes, share certificates, Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, Orion Stub Notes, the Indentures and other instruments evidencing any Claims or Equity Interests shall be deemed automatically cancelled without further act or action under any applicable agreement, law, regulation, order or rule and the obligations of the Debtors under the agreements, indentures, and certificates of designations governing such Claims and Equity Interests, as the case may be, shall be discharged; 20 provided, however, that the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, Orion Stub Notes and the Indentures shall continue in effect solely for the purposes of (i) allowing the noteholders to receive their distributions under the Plan of Reorganization, (ii) allowing the Indenture Trustee to make the distributions, if any, to be made on account of the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes and Orion Stub Notes and (iii) permitting each Indenture Trustee to assert its Charging Lien against such distributions for payment of the Indenture Trustee Fees. (b) Each holder of the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes or Orion Stub Notes shall surrender such note(s) to the pertinent Indenture Trustee, or in the event such note(s) are held in the name of, or by a nominee of, the Depository Trust Company, the Debtors shall seek the cooperation of the Depository Trust Company to provide appropriate instructions to the pertinent Indenture Trustee. No distributions hereunder shall be made for or on behalf of any such holder unless and until such note is received by the Indenture Trustee or appropriate instructions from the Depository Trust Company shall be received by the respective Indenture Trustee, or the loss, theft or destruction of such note is established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee, which satisfaction may require such holder to (i) submit a lost instrument affidavit and an indemnity bond and (ii) hold the Debtors and the Indenture Trustees harmless in respect of such note and any distributions made in respect thereof. Upon compliance with this section by a holder of any note, such holder shall, for all purposes under this Plan of Reorganization, be deemed to have surrendered such note. Any holder of Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, or Orion Stub Notes that fails to surrender such note or satisfactorily explain its non-availability to the applicable Indenture Trustee within one (1) year of the Effective Date shall be deemed to have no further Claim against the Debtors, or their property or the applicable Indenture Trustee in respect of such Claim and shall not participate in any distribution hereunder, and the distribution that would have otherwise been made to such holder shall be distributed by the applicable Indenture Trustee to all holders who have surrendered their notes or satisfactorily explained their non-availability to the applicable Indenture Trustee within one (1) year after the Effective Date. 5.5. SECTION 1145 EXEMPTION. To the maximum extent provided by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable nonbankruptcy law, the issuance under the Plan of Reorganization of the New Loral Common Stock, the New FSS Notes, the Subscription Rights and the Additional New FSS Notes will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 5.6. HART-SCOTT-RODINO COMPLIANCE. Any shares of New Loral Common Stock to be distributed under the Plan of Reorganization to any entity required to file a Premerger Notification and Report Form under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, shall not be distributed until the notification and waiting periods applicable under such Act to such entity shall have expired or been terminated. 5.7. DEBTOR INTERCOMPANY CLAIMS. All Debtor Intercompany Claims shall be reviewed by the Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the Reorganized Debtors and adjusted, continued, or discharged by the Debtors, with the consent of the Creditors' Committee, or the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion. Any such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors. 21 5.8. NON-DEBTOR INTERCOMPANY CLAIMS. All Non-Debtor Intercompany Claims shall be reviewed by the Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the Reorganized Debtors and adjusted, continued, or discharged by the Debtors, with the consent of the Creditors' Committee, or the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion. Any such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors. SECTION 6. VOTING AND DISTRIBUTIONS 6.1. VOTING OF CLAIMS. Each holder of an Allowed Claim in an impaired Class of Claims that is entitled to vote on the Plan of Reorganization pursuant to Section 3 of the Plan of Reorganization shall be entitled to vote separately to accept or reject the Plan of Reorganization as provided in such order as is entered by the Bankruptcy Court establishing procedures with respect to the solicitation and tabulation of votes to accept or reject the Plan of Reorganization, or any other order or orders of the Bankruptcy Court. 6.2. NONCONSENSUAL CONFIRMATION. If any impaired class of Claims entitled to vote shall not accept the Plan of Reorganization by the requisite statutory majority provided in section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors reserve the right to undertake to have the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan of Reorganization under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors intend to undertake to have the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan of Reorganization under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Class 6, Class 7 and Class 8. 6.3. DISTRIBUTION RECORD DATE. The Distribution Record Date with respect to any Claims other than Note Claims shall be the Effective Date. On the Distribution Record Date the claims register shall be closed and any transfer of any Claim therein shall be prohibited. New Loral and any party responsible for making distributions pursuant to Section 6.6 of the Plan of Reorganization shall instead be authorized and entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes under the Plan of Reorganization with only those record holders stated on the claims register as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. With respect to any Note Claims, distributions under the Plan shall be made pursuant to a letter of transmittal, as outlined in Section 5.4 of the Plan of Reorganization, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date. 6.4. DATE OF DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless otherwise provided herein, any distributions and deliveries to be made hereunder shall occur on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable. In the event that any payment or act under the Plan of Reorganization is required to be made or performed on a date that is not a Business Day, then the making of such payment or the performance of such act may be completed on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the next succeeding Business Day, but shall be deemed to have been completed as of the required date. 22 6.5. DISBURSING AGENT. All distributions under the Plan of Reorganization shall be made by New Loral (or such other entity designated by New Loral), as Disbursing Agent, on or after the Effective Date or under Section 6.6 of the Plan of Reorganization. Each Indenture Trustee, or such other entity designated by the Indenture Trustee, shall be the disbursing agent for its respective Note Claims. A Disbursing Agent, or any disbursing agent designated by the Indenture Trustee for its respective Note Claims, shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, and, in the event that a Disbursing Agent, or any disbursing agent designated by the Indenture Trustee for its respective Note Claims, is so ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring any such bond or surety shall be borne by New Loral. 6.6. DELIVERY OF DISTRIBUTIONS. (a) General. Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to holders of Allowed Claims shall be made at the address of the holder thereof as set forth on the Schedules filed with the Bankruptcy Court or on the books and records of the Debtors or their agents or in a letter of transmittal unless the Debtors have been notified in writing of a change of address, including, without limitation, by the filing of a proof of claim by such holder that contains an address for such holder different from the address reflected on such Schedules for such holder. New Loral shall deliver all distributions in respect of Allowed Ltd. Note Claims, Allowed Orion 10% Note Claims and Allowed Orion Stub Note Claims to the respective Indenture Trustee for the Ltd. Notes, the Orion 10% Notes and the Orion Stub Notes or such other entity designated by the Indenture Trustee as the disbursing agent under the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes and the Orion Stub Notes. Upon delivery of the foregoing distributions to the Indenture Trustee or such designee, New Loral shall be released of all liability with respect to the delivery of such distributions. The distributions to be made under the Plan of Reorganization to holders of Allowed Note Claims shall be made to the respective Indenture Trustee or its designee, which, subject to the right of such Indenture Trustee to assert its Charging Lien against such distributions, shall transmit the distributions to the holders of such Allowed Note Claims. New Loral shall provide whatever reasonable assistance may be required by the Indenture Trustees or their designees with respect to such distributions. With respect to holders of all Claims except Note Claims, on the Distribution Record Date, the claims register shall be closed and any transfer of any Claim therein shall be prohibited. The Debtors and New Loral shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of any Claims occurring after the close of business after such date. (b) Withholding and Reporting Requirements. In connection with the Plan of Reorganization and all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution under the Plan of Reorganization, including any party described in Section 6.5 above, shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state or local taxing authority, and all distributions under the Plan of Reorganization shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the above, each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution under the Plan of Reorganization shall have the 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. Any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution under the Plan of Reorganization has the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to such issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations 23 (c) JPL Fee and Expense Claim Reserve. On the Effective Date, the JPL Fee and Expense Claim Reserve will be funded by New Loral in an amount sufficient to fund all of the fees and expenses of the JPLs and their retained professionals incurred and unpaid prior to the Effective Date (excluding those fees and expenses which have been disallowed by the Supreme Court of Bermuda under the terms of the Fee Protocol and which are not subject to any ongoing dispute). On the Effective Date, New Loral will assume all of the obligations of the Bermudian Debtors under the Fee Protocol. (d) Post-Effective Date Fees and Expenses of the JPLs. On the Effective Date, New Loral shall deposit an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and the JPLs in a bank account in Bermuda designated by and under the sole control of the JPLs, which account shall be an interest-bearing account subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Bermuda for the payment of the JPLs and their retained professionals' fees and expenses incurred on or after the Effective Date in the provisional liquidations, in accordance with the Fee Protocol. In the event that such JPL Fee and Expense Claims in the provisional liquidations are determined by the Supreme Court of Bermuda to be less than the agreed upon amount described in the first sentence of this subparagraph, any balance will be returned to New Loral. (e) Costs of Liquidation. On the Effective Date, New Loral shall deposit an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and the JPLs in a bank account in Bermuda designated by and under the sole control of the JPLs, which account shall be an interest-bearing account subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Bermuda for the liquidations of the Bermudian Debtors (the "Bermuda Liquidation Fund"). The Bermuda Liquidation Fund will, subject to the provisions of Section 6.6(f) of the Plan of Reorganization, be used to fund the liquidation of the Bermudian Debtors; provided, however, that any provisional liquidators and, subsequently, liquidators of the Bermudian Debtors will be required to carry out only their statutory obligations under Bermuda law. In the event that, following the making of winding up orders in respect of the Bermudian Debtors, the JPLs do not act as provisional liquidators (and, subsequently, liquidators) of the Bermudian Debtors, the JPLs shall, upon the making of the winding up orders, transfer the Bermuda Liquidation Fund to such other person(s) so acting as provisional liquidators (and, subsequently, liquidators). Following the conclusion of the liquidations of the Bermudian Debtors under Bermuda law, any unused fees and expenses in the Bermuda Liquidation Fund and the Bermuda Contingency Fund shall be distributed to New Loral. (f) Bermuda Contingency Fund. Upon the making of any winding up order in respect of the Bermudian Debtors, the JPLs will transfer from the Bermuda Account, free and clear of liens, claims, and encumbrances, to any provisional liquidators an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and the JPLs on account of any unanticipated fees and expenses of the liquidations of the Bermudian Debtors (the "Bermuda Contingency Fund"). In the event that any unforeseen circumstances arise which require such provisional liquidators or liquidators to draw on the Bermuda Contingency Fund, they shall give New Loral at least seven (7) days prior notice of the purpose of the draw, the payee, and the amount of such draw, and New Loral shall have the option to fund such amount directly in lieu of a draw being made against the Bermuda Contingency Fund. 6.7. UNCLAIMED DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable , New Loral shall use reasonable efforts to determine the current address of such holder, but no distribution to such holder shall be made unless and until New Loral or New FSS, as applicable , has determined the then current address of such holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such holder without interest; provided that such distributions shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of one year from the Effective Date. After such date, all unclaimed 24 property or interest in property shall revert to New Loral or New FSS, as applicable, and the Claim of any other holder to such property or interest in property shall be discharged and forever barred. 6.8. MANNER OF PAYMENT UNDER PLAN OF REORGANIZATION. (a) All distributions of New Loral Common Stock and Cash to the creditors of the Debtors under the Plan of Reorganization, as applicable, shall be made by the Disbursing Agent on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors. Where the applicable Reorganized Debtor (determined without regard to Section 5.1 of the Plan of Reorganization) is a subsidiary of New Loral, New Loral shall make a capital contribution, either directly or indirectly, to the applicable Reorganized Debtor of an amount of New Loral Common Stock, or Cash to be distributed to the creditors of such Debtor, but only at such time as, and to the extent, the amounts are actually distributed to holders of Allowed Claims. Any distributions of New Loral Common Stock that revert to New Loral or are otherwise canceled (such as to the extent any distributions have not been claimed within one year or are forfeited pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Plan of Reorganization) shall revest solely in New Loral, and any applicable Reorganized Debtor (other than New Loral) shall not have (nor shall it be considered to ever have had) any ownership interest in the amounts distributed. (b) At the option of the Debtors, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer. (c) All distributions of New FSS Notes and Additional New FSS Notes shall be made by New FSS. 6.9. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of New Loral Common Stock shall be distributed under the Plan of Reorganization. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New Loral Common Stock that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of New Loral Common Stock shall be rounded as follows: (i) fractions of one-half (1/2) or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number and (ii) fractions of less than one-half (1/2) shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment or other distribution therefor. The total number of authorized shares of New Loral Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Section 6.9. 6.10. FRACTIONAL NOTES. The New FSS Notes and the Additional New FSS Notes shall not be distributed in denominations of less than one thousand ($1,000) dollars. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of an amount of the New FSS Notes and the Additional New FSS Notes that is not a multiple of one thousand (1,000), the actual distribution of the New FSS Notes and the Additional New FSS Notes shall be rounded as follows: (i) denominations of five hundred ($500) dollars or greater than shall be rounded up to one thousand ($1,000) dollars; and (ii) denominations less than five hundred ($500) dollars shall be rounded down to zero with no further payment therefor. The total amount of the New FSS Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims and the total amount of the Additional New FSS Notes that may be purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Section 6.10. 25 6.11. REGISTRATION OF NEW LORAL COMMON STOCK. Each Registration Rights Holder shall have the right to become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement on the Effective Date. The Registration Rights Agreement shall be acceptable to MHR Fund Management LLC, as Registration Rights Holder. 6.12. SETOFFS. The Debtors may, but shall not be required to, setoff against any Claim (for purposes of determining the Allowed amount of such Claim on which distribution shall be made) any Claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim, but neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of any such Claim the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim. 6.13. ALLOCATION OF PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS BETWEEN PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan of Reorganization consists of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated first to the principal amount of the Claim (as determined for federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to accrued but unpaid interest. SECTION 7. PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS 7.1. OBJECTIONS TO CLAIMS. The Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to object to all Claims. Any objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before the later of (i) one hundred twenty (120) days after the Effective Date , as such time may be extended by order of the Bankruptcy Court and (ii) such later date as may be fixed by the Bankruptcy Court, whether fixed before or after the date specified in clause (i) above. 7.2. PAYMENTS AND DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTED CLAIMS. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan of Reorganization, if any portion of a Claim is disputed, no payment or distribution provided hereunder shall be made on account of any portion of such Disputed Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim. (b) In the event Subsection 4.5(b) of the Plan of Reorganization is operative, the Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Loral General Unsecured Claims an amount that would be distributable in respect of any disputed Loral General Unsecured Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the Effective Date, and shall hold such stock in escrow (the "Loral Disputed Claims Reserve") pending resolution of the Disputed Claims, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the reserve). (c) The Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common Stock and the New FSS Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed Orion General Unsecured Claims an amount that would be distributable in respect of any disputed Orion General Unsecured Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the Effective Date, and shall hold such stock and notes in escrow (the "Orion Disputed Claims Reserve") pending resolution of the Disputed Claims, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the reserve). 26 (d) The Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Ltd. General Unsecured Claims an amount that would be distributable in respect of any disputed Ltd. General Unsecured Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the Effective Date, and shall hold such stock in escrow (the "Ltd. Disputed Claims Reserve" and, together with the Loral Disputed Claims Reserve and the Orion Disputed Claims Reserve, the "Disputed Claims Reserves") pending resolution of the Disputed Claims, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the reserve). (e) Any New Loral Common Stock and/or New FSS Notes reserved under Sections 7.2(b),(c) and (d) shall be voted by the Disbursing Agent proportionally in the same manner as the other New Loral Common Stock and/or New FSS Notes, as applicable, are voted. 7.3. DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER RESOLUTION OF DISPUTED CLAIMS. On the next Distribution Date after a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder of such Claim, the property distributable with respect to such Claim in accordance with Sections 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 of the Plan of Reorganization, as applicable, and any net earnings attributable thereto. To the extent that all or a portion of a Disputed Claim is disallowed, the holder of such Claim shall not receive any distribution on account of the portion of such Claim that is disallowed and any property withheld pending the resolution of such Claim shall be reallocated in accordance with Sections 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 of the Plan of Reorganization, together with any net earnings attributable thereto. 7.4. TAX TREATMENT OF DISPUTED CLAIMS RESERVES. (a) Subject to definitive guidance from the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary (including the receipt by the Disbursing Agent of a private letter ruling if the Disbursing Agent so requests one, or the receipt of an adverse determination by the IRS upon audit if not contested by the Disbursing Agent), the Disbursing Agent shall (i) treat each Disputed Claims Reserve as a discrete trust for federal income tax purposes, consisting of separate and independent shares to be established in respect of each Disputed Claim, in accordance with the trust provisions of the Tax Code (section 641 et. seq.), and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall report consistent with the foregoing for state and local income tax purposes. All holders of Disputed Claims shall report, for tax purposes, consistent with the foregoing. (b) The Disbursing Agent may request an expedited determination of taxes of the Disputed Claims Reserves under section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for all tax returns filed for or on behalf of the Disputed Claims Reserves for all taxable periods through the date of dissolution of such trust. 7.5. TREATMENT AND DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER ALLOWANCE. After such time as a Disputed Claim becomes, in whole or in part, an Allowed Claim, the holder thereof shall be distributed the distributions, if any, to which such holder is then entitled as provided in the Plan of Reorganization. Such distributions shall be made as soon as practicable after (i) the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing such Disputed Claim (or portion thereof) becomes a Final Order, (ii) the date on which any objection to such Disputed Claim has been withdrawn in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, or (iii) the date on which such Disputed Claim has been settled, compromised or otherwise resolved in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, but in no event more than thirty (30) days thereafter. 27 7.6. RESOLUTION OF ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CLAIMS AND CLAIMS. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the authority to compromise, settle, otherwise resolve, or withdraw any objections to Administrative Expense Claims and Claims and to compromise, settle, or otherwise resolve any disputed Administrative Expense Claims and disputed Claims without approval of the Bankruptcy Court, other than with respect to Administrative Expense Claims relating to compensation of professionals. 7.7. ESTIMATION OF CLAIMS. The Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the Reorganized Debtors may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Contingent Claim, Unliquidated Claim, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether any of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including, without limitation, during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any Contingent Claim, Unliquidated Claim, or Disputed Claim, the amount so estimated shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the amount of such Claim, the Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, or the Reorganized Debtors 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 exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn, or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court. 7.8. INTEREST. To the extent that a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the holder of such Claim shall not be entitled to any interest thereon. SECTION 8. EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES 8.1. ASSUMPTION OR REJECTION OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES. Pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, all executory contracts and unexpired leases that exist between the Debtors and any person or entity shall be deemed rejected by the Debtors as of the Effective Date, except for any executory contract or unexpired lease (i) that has been assumed pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court entered prior to the Effective Date, (ii) as to which a motion for approval of the assumption of such executory contract or unexpired lease has been filed and served prior to the Confirmation Date, or (iii) that is specifically designated as a contract or lease to be assumed on Schedule 8.1, which Schedule shall be contained in the Plan Supplement; provided, however, that the Debtors, subject to the consent of the Creditors' Committee, reserve the right, on or prior to the Confirmation Date, to amend Schedule 8.1 to delete any executory contract or unexpired lease therefrom or add any executory contract or unexpired lease thereto, in which event such executory contract(s) or unexpired lease(s) shall be deemed to be, respectively, either rejected or assumed as of the Effective Date . The Debtors shall provide notice of any amendments to Schedule 8.1 to the parties to the executory contracts and unexpired leases affected thereby and to the Creditors' Committee. The listing of a document on Schedule 8.1 shall not constitute an admission by the Debtors that such document is an executory contract or an unexpired lease or that the Debtors have any liability thereunder. 28 A non-Debtor party to an executory contract or unexpired lease that is being rejected hereunder may request that the Debtors assume such contract or lease by sending written notice to New Loral, which notice shall include a waiver of any defaults (including any payment defaults) and any right to any cure payment under such contract or lease. New Loral may, but shall not be obligated to, assume such contract or lease without further action of the Bankruptcy Court. 8.2. APPROVAL OF ASSUMPTION OR REJECTION OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall, subject to and upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, constitute (i) the approval, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, of the assumption of the executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, (ii) the extension of time, pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, within which the Debtors may assume, assume and assign, or reject the executory contracts and unexpired leases specified in Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization through the date of entry of an order approving the assumption, assumption and assignment, or rejection of such executory contracts and unexpired leases and (iii) the approval, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, of the rejection of the executory contracts and unexpired leases rejected pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization. 8.3. INCLUSIVENESS. Unless otherwise specified on Schedule 8.1, each executory contract and unexpired lease listed or to be listed on Schedule 8.1 shall include any and all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that in any manner affects such executory contract or unexpired lease, without regard to whether such agreement, instrument or other document is listed on Schedule 8.1. 8.4. CURE OF DEFAULTS. Except to the extent that different treatment has been agreed to by the non-debtor party or parties to any executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, the Debtors shall, pursuant to the provisions of sections 1123(a)(5)(G) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code and consistent with the requirements of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, within twenty (20) days of the Confirmation Date, file with the Bankruptcy Court and serve by first class mail on each non-debtor party to such executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, a pleading listing the cure amount as to each executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed. The parties to such executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed by the Debtors shall have twenty (20) days from the date of service of such pleading to object to the cure amounts listed by the Debtors. If there are any objections filed, the Bankruptcy Court shall hold a hearing. Notwithstanding Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, the Debtors shall retain their rights to reject any of their executory contracts or unexpired leases that are subject to a dispute concerning amounts necessary to cure any defaults through the Effective Date. 8.5. ASSIGNMENT. In furtherance of the Plan of Reorganization and in order to consummate the Restructuring Transactions provided in Section 5.3 of the Plan of Reorganization, on and after the Effective Date, pursuant to sections 105(a), 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors may transfer and assign any of their executory contracts or unexpired leases that have not been rejected to any of their affiliates without any further act, authority or notice. Any executory 29 contract or unexpired lease so transferred and assigned shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of the transferee or assignee in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any provision in such executory contract or unexpired lease (including those of the type described in sections 365(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such transfer or assignment. Any provision that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment or transfer of any such executory contract or unexpired lease or that terminates or modifies such executory contract or unexpired lease or allows the counterparty to such executory contract or unexpired lease to terminate, modify, recapture, impose any penalty, condition renewal or extension, or modify any term or condition upon any such transfer and assignment constitutes an unenforceable anti-assignment provision and is void and of no force or effect. 8.6. REJECTION CLAIMS. In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease, a Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a filed proof of claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or their properties or interests in property as agents, successors, or assigns, unless a proof of claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the attorneys for the Debtors on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the Confirmation Date, (ii) notice of modification to Schedule 8.1, or (iii) such later rejection date that occurs as a result of a dispute concerning amounts necessary to cure any defaults. 8.7. SURVIVAL OF THE DEBTORS' CORPORATE INDEMNITIES. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, any and all obligations of the Debtors to indemnify and reimburse persons who are or were directors, officers, agents and/or employees of the Debtors on the Commencement Date or any time thereafter against and for any obligations (including, without limitation, fees and expenses incurred by any of the members of the Board of Directors of any of the Debtors in connection with the Reorganization Cases) pursuant to articles of incorporation, codes of regulations, bylaws, applicable state law or specific agreement, or any combination of the foregoing, shall survive the confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization, shall remain unaffected thereby and in full force and effect as obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, and shall not be discharged in accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, irrespective of whether indemnification or reimbursement is owed in connection with an event occurring before, on, or after the Commencement Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors shall maintain insurance for the benefit of such directors, officers, agents and/or employees at levels no less favorable than those existing as of the date of entry of the Confirmation Order for a period of no less than three years following the Effective Date. 8.8. INSURANCE POLICIES. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, all of the Debtors' insurance policies and any agreements, documents or instruments relating thereto, are treated as executory contracts under the Plan of Reorganization and will be assumed pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, effective as of the Effective Date. Nothing contained in this Section 8.8 shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any cause of action that the Debtors may hold against any entity, including, without limitation, the insurer, under any of the Debtors' policies of insurance. 30 8.9. COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PROGRAMS. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, all employment and severance policies and workers' compensation programs, and all compensation and benefit plans, policies and programs of the Debtors applicable to their present and former employees, officers and directors, including, without express or implied limitation, all savings plans, retirement plans, supplemental retirement plans (including the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as amended pursuant to the SERP Amendment), health care plans, disability plans, and life, accidental death, and dismemberment insurance plans, shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as though they are, executor contracts that are deemed assumed under the Plan of Reorganization, and the Debtors' obligations under such plans, policies, and programs shall be deemed assumed pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall survive confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization, shall remain unaffected thereby, and shall not be discharged in accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any defaults existing under any of such plans, policies, and programs shall be cured promptly after they become known by the Reorganized Debtors. All severance benefits shall be treated as set forth in the Plan Supplement. The assumed plans shall be subject to modification in accordance with the terms thereof at the discretion of the New Loral Board. 8.10. RETIREE BENEFITS. On and after the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to pay all retiree benefits of the Debtors (within the meaning of and subject to section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code) for the duration of the period for which the Debtors had obligated themselves to provide such benefits and subject to the right of the Reorganized Debtors to modify or terminate such retiree benefits in accordance with the terms thereof. SECTION 9. THE RIGHTS OFFERING 9.1. ISSUANCE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS. Each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim shall have a Subscription Right entitling such holder to subscribe for up to its Additional New FSS Notes Pro Rata Share of Additional New FSS Notes. Holders of Orion General Unsecured Claims have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the Rights Offering as provided herein. If, after the Voting Record Date but at least five (5) days prior to the Subscription Expiration Date, a holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim is permitted to participate in the Rights Offering as a result of a Bankruptcy Court order estimating such Claim for the purpose of determining such holder's Rights Participation Claim Amount, such holder shall be permitted to participate in the Rights Offering to the same extent as a holder of a Rights Participation Claim Amount as of the Voting Record Date. 9.2. SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD. The Rights Offering shall commence on the Subscription Commencement Date and shall expire on the Subscription Expiration Date. Each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim intending to participate in the Rights Offering must affirmatively elect to exercise its Subscription Right(s) on or prior to the Subscription Expiration Date. After the Subscription Expiration Date, unexercised Subscription Rights shall be treated as acquired by the Backstop Purchaser and any exercise of such Subscription Rights by any entity other than the Backstop Purchaser shall be null and void and the Debtors shall not be obligated to honor any such purported exercise received by the Disbursing Agent after the Subscription Expiration Date, regardless of when the documents relating to such exercise were sent. 31 9.3. SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASE PRICE. Each holder of Subscription Rights shall be required to pay such holder's Subscription Purchase Price for Additional New FSS Notes, or a lesser amount of Additional New FSS Notes, each in the face amount of $1,000, as such holder may determine, subject to rounding as provided in Section 6.10 of the Plan of Reorganization. 9.4. EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS. In order to exercise the Subscription Rights, each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim must: (a) return a duly completed Subscription Form to the Disbursing Agent so that such form is actually received by the Disbursing Agent on or before the Subscription Expiration Date; and (b) pay to the Disbursing Agent (on behalf of Orion) on or before the Subscription Expiration Date such holder's Subscription Purchase Price in accordance with the wire instructions set forth on the Subscription Form or by bank or cashier's check delivered to the Disbursing Agent along with the Subscription Form. If, on or prior to the Subscription Expiration Date, the Disbursing Agent for any reason does not receive from a given holder of Subscription Rights both a duly completed Subscription Form and immediately available funds in an amount equal to such holder's Subscription Purchase Price, such holder shall be deemed to have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering. The payments made in accordance with the Rights Offering shall be deposited and held by the Disbursing Agent in a trust account, or similarly segregated account or accounts which shall be separate and apart from the Disbursing Agent's general operating funds and any other funds subject to any Lien or any cash collateral arrangements and which segregated account or accounts will be maintained for the purpose of holding the money for administration of the Rights Offering until the Effective Date, or such other later date, at the option of the Reorganized Debtors, but not later than twenty (20) days after the Effective Date. The Disbursing Agent shall not use such funds for any other purpose prior to such date and shall not encumber or permit such funds to be encumbered with any Lien or similar encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order for a holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim to exercise its Subscription Right, such holder must provide its instruction to its bank, broker, or other nominee or to its agent. The bank, broker, or other nominee or its agent, in turn, must then convey the instruction on a master Subscription Form, and arrange for the proper payment either through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or, if DTC is unable to act as intermediary for subscription instructions and payments, by following the payment instructions outlined above. Each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim may exercise all or any portion of such holder's Subscription Rights pursuant to the Subscription Form but the exercise of any Subscription Rights shall be irrevocable. In order to facilitate the exercise of the Subscription Rights, on the Subscription Commencement Date, the Debtors will mail the Subscription Form to each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim as of the Voting Record Date together with appropriate instructions for the proper completion, due execution and timely delivery of the Subscription Form, as well as instructions for the payment of the applicable Subscription Purchase Price for that portion of the Subscription Rights sought to be acquired by such holder. As promptly as practicable (and, in any event, not later than ten (10) Business Days) following the Subscription Expiration Date, the Debtors will deliver to each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim that has sought to exercise its Subscription Rights a written statement specifying the portion of the Subscription Rights that was validly and effectively acquired by such holder giving effect to Section 9.6 hereof. The Debtors, with the consent of the Creditors' Committee, may adopt such additional detailed procedures consistent with the provisions of this Section 9 to more efficiently administer the exercise of the Subscription Rights. 32 9.5. TRANSFER RESTRICTION; REVOCATION. The Subscription Rights are not transferable separate from the Orion General Unsecured Claims that give rise to them. Any such transfer or attempted transfer will be null and void and the Debtors will not treat any purported transferee as the holder of any Subscription Rights. Once the holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim has properly exercised its Subscription Right, such exercise will not be permitted to be revoked. 9.6. RIGHTS BACKSTOP PURCHASER. Any amount of Additional New FSS Notes not subscribed for pursuant to the Rights Offering shall be purchased by the Backstop Purchaser(s) at the same price provided in the Rights Offering. The Backstop Purchaser(s) shall pay to the Disbursing Agent, by wire transfer in immediately available funds on or prior to the Effective Date, Cash in an amount equal to the Subscription Purchase Price attributable to such amount of Additional New FSS Notes. The Disbursing Agent shall deposit such payment into the same trust account into which were deposited the Subscription Purchase Price payments of holders of Orion General Unsecured Claims on the exercise of their Subscription Rights. In consideration for its agreement to backstop the Rights Offering, each Backstop Purchaser shall receive its share of the Backstop Fee, which notes shall be issued as part of the New FSS Notes Indenture. 9.7. RECALCULATION AS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION EXPIRATION DATE . The Additional New FSS Notes Pro Rata Share shall be recalculated on the Subscription Expiration Date to account for any subsequent allowances of Orion General Unsecured Claims and each properly exercising holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim under the Rights Offering shall only be entitled to purchase the amount so calculated on such date and any amounts paid by such holders in excess of the amount authorized to be purchased shall be refunded, without interest, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date. 9.8. DISTRIBUTION OF THE ADDITIONAL NEW FSS NOTES. On, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Effective Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute the Additional New FSS Note(s) purchased by each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim that has properly exercised its Subscription Rights to such holder and to the Backstop Purchaser. 9.9. DISPUTED CLAIMS. For all purposes of this Section 9, each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim is entitled to participate in the Rights Offering solely to the extent of its Rights Participation Claim Amount, if any. 9.10. SUBSEQUENT ADJUSTMENTS. If as a result of subsequent allowances of Orion General Unsecured Claims for purposes of participating in the Rights Offering more than all of the Additional New FSS Notes subject to the Rights Offering have been subscribed for as a result of the exercise of the Subscription Rights, each properly exercising holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim shall be reduced on a pro rata basis based upon the principal amount of Additional New FSS Notes properly subscribed for by such holder. The difference between the price actually paid by such exercising holder and the amount of Additional 33 New FSS Notes that such holder is entitled to acquire after giving effect to the cut back, if any, shall be refunded, without interest, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date. 9.11. NO INTEREST. In the event all or any portion of the Subscription Purchase Price is repaid to the entity making such payment, no interest shall be paid thereon. 9.12. VALIDITY OF EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS. All questions concerning the timeliness, viability, form and eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights shall be determined by the Debtors in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, whose good faith determinations shall be final and binding. The Debtors, in their discretion reasonably exercised in good faith in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, may waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or irregularity to be corrected within such times as they may determine, or reject the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights. Subscription Forms shall be deemed not to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been waived or cured within such time as the Debtors determine in their discretion reasonably exercised in good faith. The Debtors will use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice to any holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim regarding any defect or irregularity in connection with any purported exercise of Subscription Rights by such holder and, with the consent of the Creditors' Committee, may permit such defect or irregularity to be cured within such time as they may determine in good faith to be appropriate; provided, however, that neither the Debtors nor the Disbursing Agent shall incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

On the Effective Date, the management, control, and operation of the Reorganized Debtors shall become the general responsibility of the New Loral Board and the Reorganized Subsidiary Debtors' Boards, as applicable. 10.2.
