If the Bankruptcy Court confirms the Plan, as of and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, certain release, injunction, and exculpation provisions set forth in Article XII of the Plan will become effective. In determining how to cast your vote on the Plan, it is important to read the provisions contained in Article XII of the Plan very carefully so that you understand how such provisions will affect you and any Claim(s) you may hold against the Released Parties under the Plan. Specifically, the releases in Article XII.0 of the Plan provide: Releases by Holders of Claims. As of the Effective Date, for good and valuable consideration, including the contributions of the Released Parties in facilitating the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases and other actions contemplated by the Plan and the other contracts, instruments, releases, agreements or documents executed and delivered in connection with the Plan and the Chapter 11 Cases, and subject to Article XII.D, each of the Releasing Parties shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably and forever, released the Released Parties from any and all claims, interests, obligations, rights, suits, damages, causes of action (including any and all causes of action under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code), remedies and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative claims or claims asserted or assertible on behalf of the Debtors and the Estates, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such Releasing Party would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively), based in whole or in part on any act, omission, transaction, event or other occurrence taking place on or prior to the Effective Date, relating to the Debtors, the Estates, the Chapter 11 Cases, the Sale Order and the transactions approved thereunder, Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan or related agreements, instruments or other documents; provided, however, that nothing in the Plan shall be deemed a waiver or release of any right of any such Releasing Parties to receive a Distribution pursuant to the terms of the Plan; provided further, however, that the foregoing provisions of this release shall not operate to waive, release or otherwise impair any causes of action arising from criminal acts, willful misconduct, actual fraud, or gross negligence of such applicable Released Party as determined by Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court or any other court of competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the foregoing release by the Releasing Parties is not, and shall not be deemed to be, in exchange for a waiver of the Debtors' (or the Litigation Trust's) rights or claims against the Releasing Parties, including the Debtors' (or the Litigation Trust's) rights to assert setoffs, recoupments or counterclaims, or to object or assert defenses to any Claim or Interest, and all such rights and claims are expressly reserved. -4- Each Holder of a Claim entitled to vote on the Plan who accepts the Plan will be deemed to have provided the releases set forth in this Article XII.0 unless such Holder timely opts out of such release by indicating its decision to not participate in such releases by checking the appropriate box on its Ballot and returning such Ballot to the Claims and Noticing Agent or by Filing an objection to such releases prior to the deadline to object to Confirmation of the Plan. Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California provides as follows: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY. Each Releasing Party that does not timely opt out of the releases set forth in this Article XII.0 by indicating its decision to not participate in such releases by checking the appropriate box on its Ballot and returning such Ballot to the Claims and Noticing Agent or Filing an objection to such releases prior to the deadline to object to Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to have voluntarily waived the rights described in Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California. Additionally, Article XII.E of the Plan provides: 1. City Settlement Contribution. Following resolution and payment of any amount owed to Poppy pursuant to the Poppy Indemnity, and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article XII.E, the DIP Lender shall pay the City Settlement Offerees the City Settlement Contribution. The City Settlement Contribution shall be allocated among the eligible City Settlement Offerees ratably based on the amount which each City Settlement Offeree is entitled to receive under this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan on account of its Allowed Secured Claim in the parcels that are subject to paragraph 5 of Exhibit 3 to the Final DIP Order. To be eligible to receive any portion of the City Settlement Contribution, the Holder must (a) vote to accept the Plan, (b) not "opt -out" of granting the Third -Party Release set forth in Article XII.0 of this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and (c) execute and deliver a general release of all claims, known and unknown, against the DIP Lender and its Related Parties (in a form to be included in the Plan Supplement). The payment of the City Settlement Contribution shall be subject to, and conditioned upon, the determination by the Bankruptcy Court by Final Order(s) of: (1) the amount, if any, payable to Poppy under the Poppy Indemnity; (2) the aggregate amount of the City Settlement Contribution; (3) the allowance and amount of the Allowed Secured Claim of each of the City Settlement Offerees and their eligibility as City Settlement Offerees; and (4) the allocation of the City Settlement Contribution among the eligible City Settlement Offerees. The payment of the City Settlement Contribution shall be further subject to and conditioned upon the Combined Order and (if separate) the Order approving the Allocation Motion having become Final Orders, without regard to the occurrence of the Effective Date; and the approval of the City Settlement Contribution by the DIP Lender in accordance with California law. Distributions on account of the City Settlement Contribution are in addition to distributions to affected creditors under Article III of this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. -5- 2. By way of illustration as to how the City Settlement Contribution could inure to the benefit of the City Settlement Offerees, if the Plan is confirmed and Poppy is unsuccessful in establishing priority on any parcels for which there is an intercreditor dispute, Poppy would only receive a recovery on account of its lien in Lot A of LLA 2020-0010. Poppy will have been primed in the amount of $572,123.36 on such parcel, which would leave up to $2,677,876.44 of the City Settlement Contribution available to qualifying City Settlement Offerees. The City Settlement Contribution would not be available in a Chapter 7 liquidation. The definitions of certain defined terms in the releases in Article XILC are defined in the Plan as follows: Releasing Parties: All Holders of Claims in Classes 3, 4, S, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 that vote to accept the Plan and do not timely submit a Release Opt -Out indicating such Holder's decision to not participate in the releases set forth in Article XILC of the Plan. Released Parties: Collectively, and in each case: (a) the Debtor Related Parties; (b) the DIP Lender and the DIP Lender's Related Parties, (c) Keillor, and (d) the EB-5 Lenders; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Robert Green Parties shall not be Released Parties. Effective Date: The date that is the first Business Day on which (a) no stay of the Confirmation Order is in effect and (b) all conditions precedent to the occurrence of the Effective Date set forth in Article XIII.B of the Plan have been satisfied or waived in accordance with Article XII.0 of the Plan.

If the requisite acceptances are not obtained, the Court nonetheless may, in certain circumstances, confirm the Plan if it finds that the Plan: (i) provides fair and equitable treatment to, and does not unfairly discriminate against, the Class or Classes voting to reject the Plan; and (ii) otherwise satisfies the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
