Subject to the restrictions on modifications set forth in Section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 3019, and those restrictions on modifications set forth in Section 10.1 of this Plan, the Proponents expressly reserve the right to alter, amend or modify the Plan one or more times before its substantial consummation.

ARTICLE 1

DEFINITIONS AND RULES OF INTERPRETATION

For purposes of this Plan, except as expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in Article 1 of the Plan. Any term used in the Plan that is not defined herein but is defined in the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules retains the meaning specified for such term in the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules, as applicable.

The term “Allowed,” when used to modify a reference in the Plan to any Claim, Interest, Class of Claims or Class of Interests, means a Claim or Interest (or any Claim or Interest in any such Class) that is so allowed.

In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates the Hansen Claims, or any other Litigation Claim, the estimated amount may, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court, constitute either (a) the Allowed amount of such Claim, (b) a maximum limitation on such Claim, or (c) in the event such Claim is estimated in connection with the estimation of other Claims within the same Class, a maximum limitation on the aggregate amount of Allowed Claims within such Class; provided, however, that if the estimate constitutes the maximum limitation on a Claim, or a Class of Claims, as applicable, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, may elect to pursue supplemental proceedings to object to the allowance of any particular Claim.

Accordingly, the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of an estimation order may limit the distribution to be made on individual Disputed Claims, regardless of the amount finally Allowed on account of such Disputed Claims.

 

14


5.4 Retained Claims and Defenses.

5.4.1 Retention. None of the Retained Claims or Defenses shall be precluded, barred or subject to estoppel because the Plan or the accompanying Disclosure Statement does not specifically identify a Retained Claim or Defense or the person against whom a Retained Claim or Defense may be asserted. Parties in interest, including Creditors, may not rely on the absence of a reference in the Disclosure Statement or the Plan as any indication that the Debtors will not pursue any available Retained Claims and Defenses against such parties. The Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to determine any Retained Claims or Defenses. Following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may compromise or dispose of the Retained Claims and Defenses without further notice to Creditors or authorization of the Bankruptcy Court.

Pursuant to Section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall have and may enforce all powers and authority of a debtor in possession or trustee under the Bankruptcy Code to the extent of and consistent with their authority under the Plan.

The funds reserved on account of Disputed Claims will not be distributed but will be retained by the Disbursing Agent in accordance with this Plan pending resolution of such Disputed Claims. No holder of a Disputed Claim shall have any Claim against the Cash reserved with respect to such Claim until such Disputed Claim shall become an Allowed Claim.

Plan shall be distributed in such amounts and at such times as is reasonably prudent. The Reorganized Debtors shall file all objections to Disputed Claims on or before the 90th day following the Effective Date, unless the Bankruptcy Court, for cause shown, extends such deadline. On the Effective Date, or as soon as thereafter as practicable, the Disbursing Agent shall make a Distribution in full, plus applicable interest, to all holders of Class 1, 4 and 5 Claims that, as of such date, have been Allowed. Thereafter, on or prior to the 10th Business Day of each month following the first Distribution date, the Disbursing Agent shall make a Distribution in full, plus applicable interest, to the holders of Class 1, 4 and 5 Claims that have been Allowed as of the last day of the preceding month. The Disbursing Agent shall make the Cash payments to the holders of Allowed Claims and Administrative Claims: (X) in U.S. dollars by check, draft or warrant, drawn on a domestic bank selected by the Disbursing Agent in its sole discretion, or by wire transfer from a domestic bank, at the Disbursing Agent’s option, and (Y) by first-class mail (or by other equivalent or superior means as determined by the Disbursing Agent).

5.5.5 Disbursing Agent. The Disbursing Agent may employ or contract with other persons or entities to perform the payment, tax withholding and remittance obligations created under the Plan. The Disbursing Agent may delegate any of its rights and responsibilities under the Plan to other persons or entities as necessary or appropriate to carry out speedy and inexpensive Distributions to Creditors under the Plan. Such persons or entities shall receive reasonable compensation for services rendered and reimbursement for expenses incurred in connection with this Plan or any functions or responsibilities adopted under the Plan, which amounts may paid as Reorganized Debtor Expenses.

5.5.6 Disputed Claims. The Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized to settle, or withdraw any objections to, any Disputed Claims following the Confirmation Date without further notice to Creditors or authorization of the Bankruptcy Court, in which event such Claim shall be deemed to be an Allowed Claim in the amount compromised for purposes of this Plan. No Distributions shall be made by the Disbursing Agent on account of Disputed Claims unless and to the extent such Claims become Allowed Claims.

5.5.7 Unclaimed Distributions. Any entity which fails to claim any Cash within ninety (90) days from the date upon which a Distribution is first made to such entity shall forfeit all rights to any Distribution under the Plan and the Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to cancel any Distribution that is not timely claimed, provided that, prior to and as a condition to such forfeiture, the Disbursing Agent shall file with the Bankruptcy Court and serve (by first-class mail, using addresses or forwarding instructions that are reasonably available to the Disbursing Agent), a notice of forfeiture specifying the amount and payee of each Distribution that is subject to forfeiture if it is not claimed within thirty (30) days of the date of service of the notice. Pursuant to Section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, upon forfeiture, such Cash (including interest thereon, if any) shall (a) in the case of Distributions to Creditors of Luna, revert to Reorganized Luna and be treated for all purposes as Luna Assets, free of any restrictions under the Plan, the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules, or (b) in the case of Distributions to Creditors of LTI, revert to Reorganized LTI and be treated for all purposes as LTI Assets, free of any restrictions under the Plan, the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules. Upon forfeiture, the claim of any Creditor with respect to such funds shall be discharged and forever barred notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary, and such Creditors shall have no claim whatsoever against the Reorganized Debtors or any holder of an Allowed Claim to whom distributions are made by the Disbursing Agent.

5.5.8 Setoff. Nothing contained in this Plan shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of any right of setoff or recoupment the Debtors may have against any Creditor. The Reorganized Debtors may, but are not required to, set off or recoup against any Claim or Interest and the payments or other distributions to be made under the Plan in respect of such Claim, claims of any nature

 

16


whatsoever that arose before the Petition Date that the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim or Interest.

5.5.9 Taxes. Pursuant to Section 346(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Disbursing Agent shall be entitled to deduct any federal, state or local withholding taxes from any Cash payments made with respect to Allowed Claims, as appropriate. The Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized to take all actions necessary to comply with applicable withholding and recording requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, each holder of an Allowed Claim that has received a distribution of Cash shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction or payment of any tax obligation imposed by any governmental unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligation on account of such distribution. For tax purposes, distributions received in respect of Allowed Claims will be allocated first to the principal amount of such Claims, with any excess allocated to unpaid accrued interest.

5.5.10 De Minimis Distributions. If any interim distribution under the Plan to the holder of an Allowed Claim would be less than $100.00, the Disbursing Agent may withhold such distribution until a final distribution is made to such holder. If any final distribution under the Plan to the holder of an Allowed Claim would be less than $10.00, the Disbursing Agent may cancel such distribution, unless a request therefore is made in writing to the Reorganized Debtors. Any unclaimed distributions pursuant to this Section 5.5.10 shall be treated as unclaimed property under Section 5.5.7 of the Plan.

ARTICLE 6

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

6.1 Assumption. On the Effective Date, pursuant to Section 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors, respectively, will assume all executory contracts and unexpired leases of Luna and LTI except for those contracts and leases that (i) have been expressly identified for rejection on Exhibit A to this Plan (together with any additions, deletions, modifications or other revisions to such Exhibit as may be made by the Proponents prior to the Confirmation Date), (ii) have otherwise been rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, or (iii) are the subject of a pending motion to eject as of the Confirmation Date.

6.2 Rejection. On the Effective Date, pursuant to Section 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors, respectively, will reject the executory contracts and unexpired leases of Luna and LTI that have been expressly identified for rejection on Exhibit A to this Plan (together with any additions, deletions, modifications or other revisions to such Exhibit as may be made by the Proponents prior to the Confirmation Date). Each executory contract and unexpired lease listed in Exhibit A shall include any modifications, amendments and supplements to such agreement, whether or not listed in Exhibit A. Any Person asserting any Claim for damages arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease of Luna or LTI under this Plan shall file such Claim on or before the Rejection Claim Bar Date, or be forever barred from (i) asserting such Claim against the Reorganized Debtors, Luna, LTI or any property of Luna or LTI, and (ii) sharing in any distribution under the Plan.

6.3 Assumption Obligations. The Reorganized Debtors shall satisfy all Assumption Obligations, if any, by making a Cash payment in the manner provided in Section 2.2 of the Plan.

6.4 Effect of Confirmation Order. The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving, as of the Effective Date, the assumption or rejection by Luna and LTI, as the case may be, pursuant to Sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code of all executory

 

17


contracts and unexpired leases identified under this Article of the Plan. The contracts and leases identified in this Plan will be assumed or rejected, respectively, only to the extent that such contracts or leases constitute pre-petition executory contracts or unexpired leases of the Debtors, and the identification of such agreements under this Plan does not constitute an admission with respect to the characterization of such agreements or the existence of any unperformed obligations, defaults, or damages thereunder. This Plan does not affect any executory contracts or unexpired leases that (a) have been previously assumed, rejected or terminated prior to the Confirmation Date, (b) are the subject of a pending motion to assume, reject or terminate as of the Confirmation Date, or (c) are not identified for assumption or rejection in this Plan.

6.5 Post-Petition Agreements. Unless inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, all contracts, leases and other agreements entered into or restated by the Debtors on or after the Petition Date, or previously assumed by the Debtors prior to the Confirmation Date (or the subject of a pending motion to assume by the Debtors as of the Confirmation Date), which have not expired or been terminated in accordance with their terms, shall be performed by the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of business and shall survive and remain in full force and effect following the Effective Date.

6.6 Insurance of Debtors. Any insurance policy acquired for the benefit of the Debtors (or any officers and directors of any of the Debtors) before or after the Petition Date shall remain in full force and effect after the Effective Date according to its terms.

6.7 Employee Benefit Programs. All Employee Benefit Programs shall be treated as “executory contracts” and shall be assumed by the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to Sections 365 and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code by operation of the Plan. The Debtors do not provide “retiree benefits” as that term is defined in Section 1114(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, on and after the Effective Date the Debtors will not pay retiree benefits.

6.8 Luna Incentive Plans. The Luna Incentive Plans shall remain in full force and effect after the Effective Date according to their respective terms.

6.9 Survival of Indemnification Obligations. Any and all obligations of Luna or LTI to indemnify, reimburse or limit the liability of its past and present directors, officers, agents, employees and representatives pursuant to their respective Charters, applicable law or specific agreements, or any combination of the foregoing, against any actions, suits and proceedings based upon any act or omission related to service with or for the Debtors shall not be discharged or impaired by Confirmation.

EFFECTS OF CONFIRMATION

8.1 Binding Effect. The rights afforded under the Plan and the treatment of all Claims and Interests under the Plan shall be the sole and exclusive remedy on account of such Claims and Interests against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Luna Assets and the LTI Assets, including any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Petition Date or interest which would have accrued but for the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases. Confirmation of the Plan shall bind and govern the acts of the Reorganized Debtors and all holders of all Claims and Interests against the Debtors, whether or not: (i) a proof of Claim or proof of Interest is filed or deemed filed pursuant to Section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) a Claim or Interest is allowed pursuant to Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iii) the holder of a Claim or Interest has accepted the Plan.

 

19


8.2 Property Revests Free and Clear. Upon the Effective Date, title to all Luna Assets and LTI Assets shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors, respectively, for the purposes contemplated under the Plan and shall no longer constitute property of the Estates created for Luna and LTI in the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, upon Confirmation all Luna Assets and LTI Assets shall be free and clear of all Claims and Interests, including Liens, charges or other encumbrances of Creditors of the Debtors. Following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may use, transfer and dispose of any such property free of any restrictions imposed by the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules and without further approval of the Bankruptcy Court or notice to Creditors, except as may otherwise be required under the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

8.3 Discharge. Except as provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, the rights afforded under the Plan and the treatment of Claims and Interests under the Plan are in exchange for and in complete satisfaction, discharge, and release of, all Claims against the Debtors. Confirmation of the Plan shall discharge the Debtors from all Claims or other debts that arose at any time before the Confirmation Date, and all debts of the kind specified in Sections 502(g), 502(h) or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or not: (i) a proof of claim based on such debt is filed or deemed filed under Section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) a Claim based on such debt is Allowed under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code; or (iii) the holder of a Claim has accepted the Plan. As of the Confirmation Date, all entities that have held, currently hold or may hold a Claim or other debt or liability that is discharged or any other right that is terminated under the Bankruptcy Code or the Plan are permanently enjoined from commencing or continuing any action, the employment of process, or other action, to collect, recover or offset any such Claim as a personal liability of Luna, LTI or the Reorganized Debtors to the full extent permitted by Bankruptcy Code § 524. Notwithstanding anything in Section 1141(d)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, all Interests shall be retained as set forth in this Plan.

8.4 Limitation of Liability. The Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee and each of their respective Agents shall have all of the benefits and protections afforded under 11 U.S.C. § 1125(e) and applicable law.

8.5 Exoneration. The Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee and each of their respective Agents shall not be liable, other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct, to any holder of a Claim or Interest or any other entity with respect to any action, omission, forbearance from action, decision, or exercise of discretion taken at any time after the Petition Date and prior to the Effective Date in connection with: (a) the management or operation of the Debtors or the discharge of their duties under the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the implementation of any of the transactions provided for, or contemplated in, this Plan, (c) any action or inaction taken in connection with either the enforcement of the Debtors’ rights against any entities or the defense of Claims asserted against the Debtors with regard to the Chapter 11 Cases, (d) any action taken in the negotiation, formulation, development, proposal, disclosure, Confirmation or implementation of the Plan, or (e) the administration of this Plan or the assets and property to be distributed pursuant to this Plan. The Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee and each of their respective Agents may reasonably rely upon the opinions of their respective counsel, accountants, and other experts and professionals and such reliance, if reasonable, shall conclusively establish good faith and the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided however, that a determination that such reliance is unreasonable shall not, by itself, constitute a determination or finding of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any action, suit or proceeding by any holder of a Claim or Interest or any other entity contesting any action, omission, forbearance from action, decision or exercise of discretion in connection with the matters in subsections (a) through (e) above, by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee and each of their respective Agents, or any of them, whether commenced before or after the Effective Date, shall be commenced only in the Bankruptcy Court.

 

20


8.6 Releases. As part of the Plan, the releases set forth below shall be granted pursuant to this Plan and the Confirmation Order:

8.6.1 Debtors’ Release of Agents. On the Effective Date, the Debtors (for and on behalf of their respective Estates), and the Reorganized Debtors shall be deemed to waive and release any and all debts, claims, rights, damages and causes of action which any of them has or may have against any of their Agents as of the Confirmation Date; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not operate as a waiver of or release from any debts, claims, rights, damages and causes of action arising out of (i) any express contractual obligation owing by any such Agents, or (ii) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any such Agents in connection with, related to, or arising out of the Chapter 11 Cases, the pursuit of Confirmation of the Plan, the Consummation of the Plan, the administration of the Plan, or the property to be distributed under the Plan.

8.6.2 Mutual, General Release. On the Effective Date, the Debtors (for and on behalf of their respective Estates), the Reorganized Debtors, the Committee and each of their respective affiliates and Agents, shall be deemed to waive and release each other and each of their respective affiliates and Agents (“Released Parties”), from any and all debts, claims, rights, damages and causes of action, whether known or unknown, which each of them now has or may have against each other by reason of any transaction, occurrence, act or omission giving rise to any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan or any transaction, occurrence, act or omission related to the Chapter 11 Cases, except for the rights and Claims established by the Plan. It is the intention of the Released Parties that this release shall be effective as a full and final release of all claims and obligations against each other arising out of the matters described, except for the rights and Claims established by the Plan. In furtherance of this intention, the Released Parties waive the benefit of the provisions of California Civil Code § 1542 (or, if inapplicable, any other similar applicable statute), which provides as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

8.6.3 Creditor’s Release. Each Person participating in a distribution under the Plan or pursuant to the Plan, for itself and its respective successors, assigns, transferees and current and former affiliates and Agents, who affirmatively votes to accept the Plan, shall, by virtue of Sections 1126(c) and 1141(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, be deemed to have released any and all Claims and causes of action against (A) the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and each of their respective Agents, and (B) the Committee and its Agents.

ARTICLE 9

AMENDMENT AND WITHDRAWAL OF PLAN

10.1 Amendment of the Plan. At any time before the Confirmation Date, the Proponents may alter, amend, or modify the Plan under Section 1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, provided that, such alteration, amendment, or modification does not materially and adversely affect the treatment and rights of the holders of Claims under this Plan. After the Confirmation Date and before substantial consummation of the Plan as defined in Section 1101(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Proponents may, under Section 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, institute proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court to remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistencies in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or the Confirmation Order, or as otherwise may be necessary to carry out the purposes and effects of the Plan so long as such proceedings do not materially and adversely affect the treatment of holders of Claims under the Plan; provided, however, that prior notice of such proceedings shall be served in accordance with the Bankruptcy Rules or applicable order of the Bankruptcy Court.

10.2 Revocation or Withdrawal of the Plan. The Proponents reserve the right to revoke or withdraw this Plan in the event that the Proponents determine in good faith that any condition to Confirmation of this Plan is unlikely to be satisfied as required herein. If the Plan is withdrawn or revoked, then the Plan shall be deemed null and void, and nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed a waiver of any Claims by or against the Debtors or any other Person in any further proceedings involving the Debtors or an admission of any sort, and this Plan and any transaction contemplated by this Plan shall not be admitted into evidence in any proceeding.

ARTICLE 11

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Effectuating Documents; Further Transactions; Timing. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized and directed to execute, deliver, file, or record such contracts, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents, and to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan. All transactions required to occur on the Effective Date under the terms of the Plan shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously.

11.2 Exemption From Transfer Taxes. In accordance with Section 1146(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, the making, delivery, or recording of a deed or other instrument of transfer under this Plan shall not be subject to any stamp tax or similar tax and the appropriate state or local government officials or agents shall be directed to forego the collection of any such tax and to accept for filing or recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax.

 

23


11.3 Governing Law. Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other federal law is applicable, the rights, duties and obligations of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and any other Person arising under the Plan shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without giving effect to Virginia’s choice of law provisions.

11.4 Modification of Payment Terms. The Reorganized Debtor may modify the treatment of any Allowed Claim or Interest in any manner adverse only to the holder of such Claim or Interest at any time after the Effective Date upon the prior written consent of the holder whose Allowed Claim or Interest treatment is being adversely affected.

11.5 Authority of Luna or Reorganized Luna Under Plan. Whenever any provision of this Plan provides for the consent, approval, waiver, election or other determination of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, any such act may be taken by Luna or Reorganized Luna with like effect as if taken by both of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors.

11.6 Provisions Enforceable. The Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of this Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregone, is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms.

11.7 Quarterly Fees to the United States Trustee. All fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a)(6) shall be paid by the Debtors in the amounts and at the times such fees may become due up to and including the Effective Date. Thereafter, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay all fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a)(6) until the Chapter 11 Cases are closed, dismissed or converted. Upon the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall be relieved from the duty to make the reports and summaries required under Bankruptcy Rule 2015(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the Chapter 11 Cases are closed, dismissed or converted, the Reorganized Debtors shall prepare and submit to the Office of the United States Trustee, on or before the last day of the month after each calendar quarter, the post-confirmation report for a revested debtor in the form suggested by the Office of the United States Trustee for Region 4. The report shall be made, and the fees shall be payable, on a consolidated basis by the Reorganized Debtor. The first report shall be due following the first full calendar quarter following the Effective Date.

11.8 Method of Payment. Payments of Cash required to be made under the Plan shall be made by check drawn on a domestic bank or by wire transfer from a domestic bank at the election of the Person making such payment. Whenever any payment or distribution to be made under the Plan is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or distribution may instead be made, without interest, on the immediately following Business Day.

11.9 Notice of Confirmation. As soon as practicable following the Effective Date of the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall file and serve notice of the entry of the Confirmation Order in the manner required under Bankruptcy Rule 2002(f). The notice shall further identify the Effective Date and shall set forth the Administrative Claim Bar Date, Professional Fees Bar Date, the Rejection Claim Bar Date and any other deadlines that may be established under the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

11.10 Severability of Plan Provisions. If, prior to the Confirmation Date, any provision of the Plan is judicially determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the Court will have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable and consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid.

 

24


11.11 Successors and Assigns. The Plan is binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the Committee, the holders of Claims and Interests, the Responsible Individual and each of their respective successors, agents and assigns, including, without limitation, the Reorganized Debtor, any bankruptcy trustees and estate representatives and any parent, subsidiary and affiliated entity of each party.
