When any distribution on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New Common Stock that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of such stock will be rounded to the next higher or lower whole number as follows: (a) fractions equal to or greater than 1/2 will be rounded to the next higher whole number and (b) fractions less than 1/2 will be rounded to the next lower whole number. The total number of shares of New Common Stock to be distributed on account of Allowed Claims will be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding, provided for in this Section VII.G.2. No consideration will be provided in lieu of fractional shares that are rounded down. 3. De Minimis Distributions No cash will be distributed to the holder of an Allowed Claim in any Class if the amount of cash to be distributed on account of such Claim is less than $25. Any holder of an Allowed Claim on account of which the amount of cash to be distributed is less than $25 will have its Claim for such distribution discharged and will be forever barred from asserting any such Claim against the Reorganized Debtor, or its respective property. Any cash not distributed pursuant to this Section will be the property of the Reorganized Debtor, free of any restrictions thereon, and any such cash held by a third party Disbursing Agent will be returned to the Reorganized Debtor. 4. Compliance with Tax Requirements a. In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Reorganized Debtor or any Disbursing Agent will comply with all Tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on it by any governmental unit, and all distributions pursuant to the Plan will be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements. b. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, each entity receiving a distribution of cash or New Common Stock pursuant to the Plan will have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any Tax obligations imposed on it by any governmental unit on account of such distribution, including income, withholding and other Tax obligations. PLAN - 21 H. Provisions Governing the Unsecured Claims Reserve 1. Funding of the Unsecured Claims Reserve On the Effective Date, the Reserved Shares will be placed in the Unsecured Claims Reserve for the benefit of holders of Allowed Claims in Class 5. 2. Property Held in Unsecured Claims Reserve a. Dividends and Distributions Cash dividends and other distributions on account of New Common Stock held in the Unsecured Claims Reserve will be transferred to the Unsecured Claims Reserve concurrently with the transfer of such dividends and other distributions to other holders of New Common Stock. Cash held in the Unsecured Claims Reserve as a result of such dividends and other distributions (i) will be deposited in a segregated bank account in the name of the applicable Disbursing Agent and held in trust pending distribution by the Disbursing Agent for the benefit of holders of Class 5 Claims, (ii) will be accounted for separately and (iii) will not constitute property of the Reorganized Debtor. The Disbursing Agent will invest the cash held in the Unsecured Claims Reserve in a manner consistent with the Reorganized Debtor's investment and deposit guidelines. The Disbursing Agent also will place in the Unsecured Claims Reserve the cash investment yield from such investment of cash b. Recourse Each holder of an Allowed Claim (or a Disputed Claim that ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim) in Class 5 will have recourse only to be undistributed cash and New Common Stock held in the Unsecured Claims Reserve for satisfaction of the distributions to which holders of Allowed Class 5 Claims are entitled under the Plan, and not the Reorganized Debtor, its property or any assets previously distributed on account of any Allowed Claim. I. Setoffs Except with respect to Claims of a Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor released pursuant to the Plan or any contract, instrument, release or other agreement or document entered into or delivered in connection with the Plan, the Reorganized Debtor or, as instructed by the Reorganized Debtor or a third party Disbursing Agent may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable nonbankruptcy law, set off against any Allowed Claim and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claim (before any distribution is made on account of such Claim) the claims, rights and causes of action of any nature that the Reorganized Debtor may hold against the holder of such Allowed Claim; provided, however, that neither the failure to effect a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder will constitute a waiver or release by the Reorganized Debtor of any claims, rights and causes of action that any Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor may possess against such a Claim holder. PLAN - 22 J. Surrender of Canceled Instruments or Securities As a condition precedent to receiving any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim evidenced by the Notes, contracts, instruments, securities or other documentation canceled pursuant to Section V.F, the holder of such Claim (or other appropriate parties which hold such Notes, contracts, instruments, securities or other documentation on their behalf) must tender, as specified in this Section VII.J, the applicable instruments, securities or other documentation evidencing such Claim to the applicable Disbursing Agent, together with any letter of transmittal required by the Reorganized Debtor or Disbursing Agent. Pending such surrender, any distributions pursuant to the Plan on account of any such Claim will be treated as an undeliverable distribution pursuant to Section VII.D.2. 1. Tender of Notes Except as provided in Section VII.J.2 for lost, stolen, mutilated or, destroyed Notes or instruments, each holder of an Allowed Notes Claim or Claim evidenced by an instrument must tender the applicable Note or Instrument to the applicable Reorganized Debtor, Reorganized Debtor Subsidiary Entity or Disbursing Agent in accordance with a letter of transmittal to be provided to such holders by the Reorganized Debtor or Disbursing Agent as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date. The letter of transmittal will include, among other provisions, customary provisions with respect to the authority of the holder of the applicable Notes to act and the authenticity of any signatures required thereon. All surrendered Notes and other instruments will be marked as canceled and delivered to the Reorganized Debtor. 2. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Notes Any holder of Notes or instruments which have been lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed must, in lieu of surrendering such Note, deliver to the applicable Disbursing Agent: (a) evidence satisfactory to the Disbursing Agent of the loss, theft, mutilation or destruction and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by the Disbursing Agent to hold the Disbursing Agent and the Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, harmless from any damages, liabilities or costs incurred in treating such individual as a holder of Note. Upon compliance with this Section VII.J.2 by a holder of an Allowed Note Claim, such holder will, for all purposes under the Plan, be deemed to have surrendered the applicable Note.

Payments Related To Assumption Of Executory Contracts And Leases Any monetary amounts by which each executory contract and unexpired lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan is in default shall be satisfied, under Section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, at the option of the Debtor party to the executory contract or lease or the assignee of the Debtor party assuming such contract or lease, by Cure, or by such other treatment as to which each Debtor and such non-Debtor Party to th executory contract or unexpired lease shall have agreed in writing.

Bar To Rejection Damages If the rejection by the Debtor, pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, of an executory contract or unexpired lease results in a Claim that is not theretofore evidenced by a timely filed proof of Claim or a proof of Claim that is deemed to be timely filed under applicable law, then such Claim shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtor, the Reorganized Trend-Lines or its respective properties, unless a proof of Claim is filed with the Clerk of the Court and served upon counsel for the Debtor within thirty (30) days of entry of the Confirmation Order. 26. Employee Incentive Stock Plan Reorganized Trend-Lines shall adopt an Employee Incentive Stock Plan which will allow Reorganized Trend-Lines to grant New Common Stock to officers, directors and employees of the Reorganized Trend-Lines as the board of directors of Reorganized Trend-Lines may from time to time determine subject to the terms and conditions of the Employee Incentive Stock Plan.
