appropriate and no other notice need be provided; and this Court having entered the Final DIP Order;
and it appearing that entry into the DIP Amendment is a sound and prudent exercise of the Debtors'
business judgment; and this Court having reviewed the Motion and the Sontchi Declaration; and this
Court having determined that the legal and factual bases set forth in the Motion and the Sontchi
Declaration establish just cause for the relief granted herein; and upon all of the proceedings had
before this Court; and after due deliberation and sufficient cause appearing therefor, it is HEREBY
ORDERED THAT;
1. The Motion is granted as set forth in this Order.
2. The Debtors are authorized, but not directed, to enter into the DIP Amendment,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
3. The Debtors are authorized, but not directed, to execute, deliver and cause the
recordation of the Supplemental Deed of Trust, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
2.
4. The real property and improvements that are described in the Supplemental Deed
of Trust and the proceeds from the sale thereof (the "Supplemental DOT Collateral"), (i) were and
remain the collateral of the DIP Lender to secure all indebtedness and obligations of the Debtors
to the DIP Lender, including, without limitation, obligations and indebtedness that exist or may
arise from or in connection with the Poppy Bank Backstop Indemnity, and (ii) are not subject to
any cap on priming under the Final DIP Order or Amended Final DIP Order. The DIP Lender has
and shall retain a first priority lien on the Supplemental DOT Collateral.
5. Upon the closing of the Sale Transaction described in the Sale Motion, the Debtors
shall establish a segregated escrow account (the "Escrow Account") to hold net sale proceeds
whenever received that are allocable to the Supplemental DOT Collateral, which allocable net sale
2
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 760 Filed 10/23/25 Page 3 of 7
proceeds shall be equal to the acreage of the Supplemental DOT Collateral divided by the total
acreage of the Debtors' real property conveyed at the closing of the Sale Transaction, times the
net proceeds received by the Debtors from the Buyer pursuant to the Successful Transaction. For
purposes of determining the amount of net proceeds received from the Buyer pursuant to the Sale
Transaction, the following items shall be deducted from gross sale proceeds: (A) sales
commissions paid, allowed, or reserved on account of the sale of the Purchased Assets; (B) real
property taxes owed by the Debtors (whether prepetition or post -petition), which are paid, allowed,
or reserved as of the closing of the Sale Transaction; and (c) such other customary closing costs as
agreed by the DIP Lender in its sole discretion. The DIP Lender shall have a first priority priming
Lien in the Escrow Account and the funds held therein, without the need for perfection or other
action under nonbankruptcy law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the request of the DIP
Lender, the Debtors shall enter into a control agreement under applicable nonbankruptcy law with
respect to the Escrow Account and use best efforts to obtain consent to the same from any bank
holding the Escrow Account. The provisions set forth in this paragraph as to the funding of the
Escrow Account are without prejudice to the allocation of remaining proceeds of the Sale
Transaction among other creditors.
6. To the extent that there is availability, if any, remaining under the DIP Facility, but
without regard to the Wind Down Expense Contribution, the Debtors are authorized at the closing
of the Sale Transaction, to draw down such remaining available funds for use in accordance with
the DIP Credit Agreement and such funds will be held in a separate account to which the DIP
Lender will have a continuing lien and the disbursement of which shall be in accordance with
orders of this Court and applicable law. To avoid uncertainty, the balance of the DIP Credit
Agreement due as of the closing of the Sale Transaction, giving effect to the Credit (discussed
3
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 760 Filed 10/23/25 Page 4 of 7
below), and including the draw referenced in this paragraph, shall be paid to the DIP Lender at
closing.
7. The Debtors are authorized and directed, without further order of this Court, to
disburse the funds held in the Escrow Account to the DIP Lender or at its direction: (i) to repay
the funds as may be advanced by the DIP Lender to the Debtors after the closing of the Sale
Transaction; (ii) upon, and to the extent that, the DIP Lender has made or delivered payment on
account of the Poppy Backstop Indemnity; or (iii) upon or to the extent that the DIP Lender and
Poppy Bank have entered into an agreement to reduce, modify or terminate the DIP Lender's
obligations with respect to the Poppy Bank Backstop Indemnity. Disbursement of the funds in the
Escrow Account under any other circumstance shall be subject to further order of the Court.
8. Subject to and conditioned upon the satisfaction of all conditions and covenants set
forth in the DIP Amendment (including, without limitation, the closing of the Sale Transaction to
Turnbridge), the DIP Lender shall waive $2,250,000 of its claim under the DIP Credit Agreement
(the "Credit"). To the extent all conditions and covenants have been satisfied, the Credit shall
constitute a credit at closing of the Sale Transaction toward the repayment of all amounts due under
the DIP Credit Facility as of such closing, and the caps on priming set forth in Exhibit 3 to the
Final DIP Order shall be further amended as follows: (i) the cap under paragraph 1 of Exhibit 3
shall be reduced from $1,000,000 to $812,500; (ii) the cap under paragraph 2 of Exhibit 3 shall be
reduced from $7,000,000 to $5,687,500; and (iii) the cap under paragraph 5 of Exhibit 3 shall be
reduced from $4,000,000 to $3,250,000.
9. Subject to and conditioned upon the satisfaction of all conditions and covenants set
forth in the DIP Amendment, the maximum principal amount of the DIP Credit Facility shall be
increased by $1,000,000 and such amount shall be made available for the purpose of funding wind-
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 760 Filed 10/23/25 Page 5 of 7
down expenses of the Debtors (the "Wind Down Expenses"), all as set forth in greater detail in the
DIP Amendment. Additionally, in the sole and absolute discretion of the DIP Lender, and subject
to all conditions and covenants set forth in the DIP Amendment and the DIP Credit Agreement,
the maximum principal amount of the DIP Facility may be raised by an additional $1,000,000 (for
a total of $2,000,000 of additional financing) to fund the payment of the Wind Down Expenses.
The increase in the authorized principal amount of the DIP Facility is referred to herein as the
"Wind Down Expense Contribution." Except to the extent of the priming caps set forth in
paragraph 8 of this Order and the Carve -Out, the DIP Lender shall have and retain a first priority
Lien in all assets of the Debtors, including, without limitation, avoidance actions of the estates,
and a superpriority administrative expense, to secure the Debtors' obligations and indebtedness to
the DIP Lender; provided, however, that the DIP Lender shall subordinate its Liens and
administrative expense claims that arise solely from the Wind Down Expense Contribution to other
allowed unpaid administrative and priority claims, but only to the extent that such subordination
is necessary to permit payments that are required with respect to such claims under section
1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code as part of a confirmed plan of liquidation proposed by the
Debtors (the "Priority Payments") and the Liens and administrative expense claims that arise from
the Wind Down Expense Contribution shall not prime other valid debt secured by unavoidable
liens on the Debtors' Real Property sold to the Buyer or the proceeds thereof to the extent of such
creditor's interest in such collateral.
10. The DIP Lender, in its capacity as such, shall not be subject to the equitable doctrine
of "marshalling" or any similar doctrine with respect to the Supplemental DOT Collateral.
11. Any and all objections to the Motion with respect to the entry of this Order that
have not been withdrawn, waived, settled, or resolved and all reservations of rights included
5
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 760 Filed 10/23/25 Page 6 of 7
therein, are hereby denied and overruled on the merits. This Order shall become effective
immediately upon its entry.
12. The DIP Amendment shall be deemed and hereby is an integrated part of the DIP
Credit Agreement for all purposes under the DIP Credit Agreement, and the Final DIP Order. This
Order shall be deemed integrated into and a part of the Final DIP Order, such that all findings of
fact and conclusions of law made therein, and all relief granted therein, shall be applicable to the
DIP Obligations incurred under the DIP Credit Facility and the DIP Credit Agreement, as amended
by the DIP Amendment. Except to the extent expressly amended herein, the Final DIP Order
remains in full force and effect.
13. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rule 9014, any Local Rule, or Rule 62(a) of the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Order shall be immediately effective and enforceable upon
its entry and there shall be no stay of execution or effectiveness of this Order.
14. The DIP Lender has extended credit to the Debtors in good faith and the reversal
or modification on appeal of this Order shall not affect the validity of any indebtedness incurred,
or any lien granted, under this Order or any other order of this Court.
15. The Debtors are authorized to take any and all actions necessary to execute and
consummate the DIP Amendment and the Supplemental Deed of Trust.

funds in the Borrowers' operating accounts, are more than the Carve -Out to the Lender, to be held

indebtedness under the DIP Facility.

(which shall be in addition to the foregoing rate, or the maximum allowable interest rate pursuant
to California law, whichever is less).

the Wind Down Funding Commitment shall automatically be permanently reduced on each date
such Loan is advanced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans incurred
on such borrowing date.
(f) Termination of Commitments. The Original Commitment and the Wind
Down Funding Commitment shall each terminate respectively and in their entirety on the
applicable Commitment Termination Date. Subject to the Carve -Out, the Original Commitment

Priming DIP Order; to wit: (1) the cap under paragraph 1 of Exhibit 3 shall be reduced from
