IT IS HEREBY FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:
A. Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. The findings of fact and conclusions
set forth herein, together with the findings of fact and conclusions of law set forth on the record at
the Combined Hearing, constitute this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to
Rule 52 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, made applicable to these proceedings pursuant to
Bankruptcy Rules 7052 and 9014. To the extent any of the following findings of fact constitute
conclusions of law, they are adopted as such. To the extent that any of the following conclusions
of law constitute findings of fact, they are adopted as such.
B. Jurisdiction and Venue. This Court has jurisdiction over these Chapter 11 Cases
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334, and the Amended Standing Order of Reference from the
United States District Court for the District of Delaware, dated February 29, 2012. This is a core
proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b), and this Court may enter a final order consistent with
Article III of the United States Constitution, and the Debtors consent to entry of this Combined
Order under rule 9013-1(0 of the Local Rules of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
3
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 4 of 30
District of Delaware (the "Local Rules") and Article III of the United States Constitution. Venue
of these proceedings and these Chapter 11 Cases is proper in this district and in this Court pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.
C. Chapter 11 Petitions. On August 5, 2024 (the "Petition Date"), each of the
Debtors filed a voluntary petition for relief (these "Chapter 11 Cases") under chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors continue to manage their assets as debtors in possession pursuant
to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. These Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly

Plan and the filing and notice of the Plan Supplement were appropriate, timely, and adequate, and
complied with the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Interim
Approval and Procedures Order, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. All parties

manner consistent with this Combined Order.
4
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 5 of 30
F. Adequacy of the Disclosures Contained in Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan. The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan contains extensive material information
regarding the Debtors so that parties entitled to vote on the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan could make informed decisions regarding whether and how to vote thereon. The Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan contains "adequate information" (as such term is defined in section
1125(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and used in section 1126(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) with
respect to the Debtors, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and the transactions
contemplated therein.
G. Interim Approval and Procedures Order and Notice. On April 8, 2026, the
Court entered the Interim Approval and Procedures Order. As evidenced by the Notice Affidavits
and the record in these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors provided due, adequate, and sufficient notice
of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan; the Interim Approval and Procedures Order; the
Solicitation Packages; the Notices of Non -Voting Status; the Publication Notice; the Combined
Hearing Notice; the Plan Supplement; the release, exculpation, and injunction provisions contained
in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan; the Voting Deadline; the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan Objection Deadline; and any other applicable dates described in the Interim
Approval and Procedures Order, in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules,
including Bankruptcy Rules 2002(b), 3016, 3017, 3019, and 3020(b), the Local Rules, and the
Interim Approval and Procedures Order. No other or further notice is or shall be required.
H. Mailing of Solicitation and Confirmation Materials. As evidenced by the
Voting Report and the Notice Affidavits, the transmittal and service of the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, the Ballots, the Combined Hearing Notice, and the Notices of Non -Voting
Status were adequate and sufficient under the circumstances, and all parties required to be given
5
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 6 of 30
notice of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the Combined Hearing (including the
deadline for filing and serving objections to final approval and confirmation of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan) have been given due, proper, timely, and adequate notice thereof
and an opportunity to appear and be heard in accordance with the Interim Approval and Procedures
Order and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and applicable non -
bankruptcy law. No other or further notice of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and
the Combined Hearing is required.
I. Voting. The Voting Report was admitted into evidence during the Combined
Hearing without objection. The procedures by which the Ballots for acceptance or rejection of the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan were distributed and tabulated under the circumstances
of these Chapter 11 Cases were fair, properly conducted, and complied with the Bankruptcy Code,
the Bankruptcy Rules, applicable non -bankruptcy law and the Interim Approval and Procedures
Order.
J. Bankruptcy Rule 3016. The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and the
filing thereof, comply with Bankruptcy Rule 3016.
K. Proper Classification (11 U.S.C. §§ 1122, 1123(a)(1)). The classification of
Claims and Interests under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is proper under the
Bankruptcy Code. In addition to Administrative Claims, DIP Claims, Professional Fee Claims,
and Priority Tax Claims, which need not be classified, the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan designates thirty (30) Classes of Claims and Interests. The Claims or Interests placed in each
Class are substantially similar to other Claims or Interests, as the case may be, in each such Class.
Valid business, factual, and legal reasons exist for separately classifying the various Classes of
Claims and Interests created under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and such Classes
6
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 7 of 30
do not unfairly discriminate between Holders of Claims and Interests. Thus, the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.
L. Specification of Unimpaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(2)). Article III.B.1
and Article III.B.2 of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan specify that Class 1 (Secured
Claims) and Class 2 (Priority Non -Tax Claims) are Unimpaired under the Plan. Thus, section
1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
M. Specification of Treatment of Impaired Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(3)).
Article III.B.3 through Article III.B.15 of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan designate
Classes 3 through 27 as Impaired and specify the treatment of the Claims and Interests in such
Classes. Thus, section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
N. No Discrimination (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(4)). The Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan provides for the same treatment by the Debtors for each Claim or Interest in each
respective Class unless the Holder of a particular Claim or Interest has agreed to a less favorable
treatment of such Claim or Interest. Thus, section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
O. Implementation of the Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(5)). The Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, including the provisions governing the Litigation Trust, provides adequate
and proper means for the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan's implementation. Thus,
section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
P. Non -Voting Equity Securities (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(6)). The Plan does not
provide for the issuance of non -voting securities. All Interests in the Debtors shall be transferred
to the Litigation Trust. Therefore, section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
Q. Selection of Officers and Directors (11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(7)). Article VII.D of
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan provides that the Litigation Trust shall be
7
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 8 of 30
administered by the Litigation Trustee in accordance with the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan and the Litigation Trust Agreement. From and after the Effective Date, the Litigation Trustee
shall be the exclusive representative of the Debtors' Estates. The Litigation Trustee shall take all
actions necessary to investigate and prosecute the Retained Causes of Action and thereafter to
wind down the affairs of the Debtors consistent with the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan
and Litigation Trust Agreement. The appointment of the Litigation Trustee is consistent with the
interests of Holders of Claims and Interests and with public policy. Therefore, the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1123(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy
Code.
R. Plan Provisions are Appropriate (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)). The Plan's provisions
are appropriate, in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates, and consistent with the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules.
S. Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(1)—(b)(2)).
The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to either assume, assume
and assign, or reject each of the Debtors' remaining Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases as
provided for in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Plan Supplement, and this
Combined Order and any such determinations under the circumstances are justified and
appropriate. Entry of this Combined Order shall constitute approval of such assumptions,
assumptions and assignments, and/or rejections, as applicable, pursuant to sections 365 and 1123
of the Bankruptcy Code.
T. Compromises and Settlements Under and in Connection with the Plan
(11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(3)(A)). All the settlements and compromises pursuant to and in connection
with the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan comply with the requirements of section
8
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 9 of 30
1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, except as otherwise set forth in the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan or herein, in consideration for the Distributions and other benefits
provided for under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, including the release,
exculpation, and injunction provisions, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan shall
constitute a good faith compromise and settlement of all Claims and controversies resolved
pursuant to the Plan.
U. Retention and Enforcement of Claims Belonging to the Debtors
(11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(3)(B)). In accordance with section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code,
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan provides that the Remaining Assets and the Retained
Causes of Action (including any Privilege Rights), are being preserved and, on the Effective Date,
shall transfer to the Litigation Trust without further action of the Bankruptcy Court. The Litigation
Trust will have, retain, reserve, and be entitled to assert all such Retained Causes of Action,
including, without limitation, all such claims, rights of setoff, or recoupment, and other legal or
equitable defenses and all of the Debtors' legal and equitable rights with respect to any Claim or
Interest that may be asserted after the Effective Date to the same extent as if the Debtors' Chapter
11 Cases had not been commenced.
V. Plan Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(5)). In
accordance with section 1123(b)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III and Article VII of the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan modify or leave unaffected, as the case may be, the
rights of Holders of Claims in each Class.
W. Plan Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(6)). In
accordance with section 1123(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Combined Disclosure Statement
9
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 10 of 30
and Plan includes various additional and appropriate provisions that are not inconsistent with
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
X. Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)). As set forth below,
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with all of the applicable provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Y. Debtors' Compliance with Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(2)). Pursuant
to section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have complied with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, sections 1122, 1123, 1124, 1125,
and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Interim Approval and Procedures
Order.
Z. Plan Proposed in Good Faith and Not by Means Forbidden by Law
(11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(3)). The Debtors have proposed the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(3)
of the Bankruptcy Code. In determining that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan has
been proposed in good faith, this Court has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding
the filing of these Chapter 11 Cases and the process related to the proposal of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan. The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is the result of
extensive arm's-length negotiations among the Debtors, the City, the U.S. Trustee, the Settling
Creditors, and other key stakeholders. The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan promotes
the objectives and purposes of the Bankruptcy Code.
AA. Payments for Services or Costs and Expenses (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(4)). The
procedures set forth in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan for this Court's approval of
the fees, costs, and expenses to be paid in connection with these Chapter 11 Cases, or in connection
10
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 11 of 30
with the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and incident to these Chapter 11 Cases, satisfy
the objectives of, and are in compliance with, section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.
BB. Directors, Officers, and Insiders (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(5)). In accordance with
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, on the Effective Date, each of the Debtors' directors
and officers shall be discharged from their duties and terminated automatically (unless subject to
a separate agreement with the Litigation Trustee). The identity of the Litigation Trustee has been
disclosed in the Plan Supplement and is consistent with the interests of Holders of Claims and
Interests and with public policy. Thus, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies
section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code.
CC. Best Interests of Creditors (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(7)). The "best interests" test is
satisfied as to all Impaired Classes under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan as each
Holder of a Claim or Interest in such Impaired Classes has either voted to accept the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan or will receive or retain property of a value, as of the Effective
Date, that is not less than the amount that such Holder would so receive or retain if the Debtors
were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.
DD. Acceptance by Certain Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(8)). Class 1 (Secured Tax
Claims) and Class 2 (Priority Non -Tax Claims) are unimpaired under the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan. Class 3 (Keillor Secured Claim), Class 4 (Builders Capital Secured Claim),
Class 5 (Poppy Secured Claim), Class 6 (RDO Secured Claim), Class 7 (Granite Secured Claim),
Class 8 (Gauston Secured Claim), Class 9 (Rowan Secured Claim), Class 10 (EB-5 Secured
Claim), Class 11 (H&E Secured Claim), Class 13 (Traub Secured Claim), Class 20 (MSA
Consulting Secured Claim), and Class 25 (White's Steel Secured Claim) have voted to accept the
Plan, on behalf of insiders and non -insiders of the Debtors, in accordance with the Bankruptcy
11
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 12 of 30
Code, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(8) as to those Classes. Class 28 (Subordinated Claims),
Class 29 (Intercompany Claims), and Class 30 (Interests) are deemed to have rejected the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Moreover, Class 16 (Goetz Secured Claim), Class 17 (Young's Secured Claim), Class 26 (Robert
Green Disputed Secured Claim), and Class 27 (General Unsecured Claims) have voted to reject
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Accordingly, section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy
Code has not and cannot be satisfied as to Classes 16, 17, 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30. The Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan, however, is still confirmable because it satisfies the confirmation
provisions of section 1129(b), as set forth below.
EE. Treatment of Administrative Claims, Professional Fee Claims, Tax Claims,
and U.S. Trustee Claims (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9)). The treatment of Administrative Claims, DIP
Claims, Professional Fee Claims, and Priority Tax Claims, pursuant to Article II of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code.
FF. Acceptance by Impaired Class (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(10)). Class 3 (Keillor
Secured Claim), Class 4 (Builders Capital Secured Claim), Class 5 (Poppy Secured Claim), Class
6 (RDO Secured Claim), Class 7 (Granite Secured Claim), Class 8 (Gauston Secured Claim), Class
9 (Rowan Secured Claim), Class 10 (EB-5 Secured Claim), Class 11 (H&E Secured Claim), Class
13 (Traub Secured Claim), Class 20 (MSA Consulting Secured Claim), and Class 25 (White's
Steel Secured Claim) are Impaired and voted to accept the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan as to each of the Debtors, excluding any acceptance of the Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan by any insider. Therefore, section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.
GG. Feasibility (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(11)). The evidence supporting the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan proffered or adduced by the Debtors and as set forth in the Sontchi
12
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 13 of 30
Declaration establish that the Debtors have the wherewithal to make all payments and otherwise
comply with their financial commitments under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.
HH. Payment of Fees (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(12)). All fees payable under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1930 have been paid or will be paid on or before the Effective Date pursuant to the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code.
II. Miscellaneous Provisions (11 U.S.C. §§ 1129(a)(6), (a)(13)—(16)). Sections
1129(a)(6), (a)(13)—(16) of the Bankruptcy Code are inapplicable, as the Debtors (i) will not have
any businesses involving the establishment of rates (section 1129(a)(6)); (ii) are not obligated to
pay retiree benefits, as defined in section 1114(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (section 1129(a)(13));
(iii) have no domestic support obligations (section 1129(a)(14)); (iv) are not individuals (section
1129(a)(15)); and (v) are not nonprofit corporations (section 1129(a)(16)).
JJ. No Unfair Discrimination; Fair and Equitable Treatment
(11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)). The classification and treatment of Claims and Interests in Class 16 (Goetz
Secured Claim), Class 17 (Young's Secured Claim), Class 26 (Robert Green Disputed Secured
Claim), Class 27 (General Unsecured Claims), Class 28 (Subordinated Claims), Class 29
(Intercompany Claims), and Class 30 (Interests), all of which either voted to reject the Plan or are
deemed to have rejected the Plan, is proper pursuant to section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Specifically, with respect to Classes 16, 17, and 26, all of which are comprised of the Holders of
Secured Claims under the Plan, the Plan provides that such Holders will receive, in exchange for
full and final satisfaction of their Secured Claims, retention of their liens securing such claims and
deferred payment of such Secured Claims in full in Cash, except to the extent that the Holders of
such Secured Claims and the Debtors or the Litigation Trustee, as applicable, agree to less
favorable treatment for such Holder, after resolution of the Remaining Disputes. Thus the Plan
13
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 14 of 30
satisfies section 1129(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Holders of Secured
Claims that voted to reject the Plan. With respect to the Holders of Claims in Class 27 (General
Unsecured Claims), which voted to reject the Plan, and Classes 28-30, which were deemed to
reject the Plan, the Plan satisfies the "absolute priority rule" of section 1129(b)(2)(B) of the
Bankruptcy Code because there is no Class of Claims or Interests junior to the Holders of Claims
and Interests in Class 27 that will receive or retain property under the Plan on account of their
Claims or Interests. Accordingly, the Plan does not violate the absolute priority rule, does not
discriminate unfairly, and is fair and equitable with respect to such Classes. Thus, the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
KK. Only One Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1129(c)). The Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan is the only chapter 11 plan currently proposed in these Chapter 11 Cases, and section 1129(c)
of the Bankruptcy Code is therefore satisfied.
LL. Principal Purpose (11 U.S.C. § 1129(d)). The principal purpose of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan is neither the avoidance of taxes, nor the avoidance of the
application of section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, and no governmental unit has objected to
final approval or confirmation on any such grounds. Accordingly, section 1129(d) of the
Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable.
MM. Litigation Trust. Entry into the Litigation Trust Agreement is in the best interests
of the Debtors and the Debtors' Estates and creditors. The establishment of the Litigation Trust,
the selection of the Litigation Trustee, and the form of the Litigation Trust Agreement (as may be
modified or amended from time to time), is appropriate and in the best interest of the Debtors'
creditors. The Litigation Trust Agreement shall, upon the Effective Date, be valid, binding, and
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
14
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 15 of 30
NN. Satisfaction of Confirmation Requirements. Based upon the foregoing, the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfies the requirements for confirmation set forth in
the Bankruptcy Code and should be confirmed.
00. Good Faith Solicitation (11 U.S.C. § 1125(e)). The Debtors and their officers,
directors, employees, advisors, Professionals, and agents, have acted in good faith within the
meaning of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in compliance with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Interim Approval and
Procedures Order in connection with all of their respective activities relating to the solicitation of
acceptances of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and their participation in the activities
described in section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, and they are entitled to the protections afforded
by section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code and the injunction and exculpation provisions set forth
in Article XII of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and in this Combined Order.
PP. Releases, Exculpation, and Injunctions. As set forth below, the releases,
exculpations and injunctions set forth in Article XII of the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan are appropriate under applicable law.
(a) Third -Party Releases. As set forth in the Confirmation Documents, the
Third -Party Releases being provided by the Releasing Parties, pursuant to
Article XII.0 of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, in favor of
the Released Parties are appropriate in that such releases are consensual.
The Third Party -Releases are given and made after due notice and an
opportunity to opt -out or object and be heard with respect thereto, as the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Combined Hearing Notice,
the Ballots, and the Opt -Out Forms unambiguously stated that (i) the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan contains such releases; (ii)
affected parties may object to the releases; and (iii) the Release Opt -Out
may be exercised as provided for in the Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan.
(b) Releases by the Debtors. As set forth in the Confirmation Documents, the
releases being provided by the Debtors in favor of the Released Parties and
the Settling Creditor Released Parties pursuant to Article XII.B of the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the Global Settlement (the
15
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 16 of 30
"Debtor Release") are (i) fair, equitable and reasonable; (ii) integral
elements of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the resolution
of these Chapter 11 Cases, without which the Debtors' ability to confirm
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan would be seriously impaired;
and (iii) in the best interests of the Debtors, the estates and creditors.
Accordingly, the releases by the Debtors constitute a sound exercise of the
Debtors' business judgment and, to the extent applicable, otherwise satisfy
the standard articulated in In re Master Mortg. Inv. Fund, Inc., 168 B.R. 930
(Bankr. W.D. Mo. 1994) and In re Zenith Elec. Corp., 241 B.R. 92, 110-11
(Bankr. D. Del. 1999). To the extent the releases by the Debtors are a
settlement or adjustment of any claim or interest belonging to the Debtors,
such settlement or adjustment is consistent with section 1123(b)(3)(A) of
the Bankruptcy Code and is approved.
(c) Exculpation. As set forth in the Confirmation Documents, the exculpations
in favor of the Exculpated Parties in Article XII.D of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan (the "Exculpation Provision") are
appropriate in that the Exculpated Parties are fiduciaries of the Debtors'
estates and no Exculpated Party is being exculpated for acts or omissions
that constitute actual fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence. The
Exculpation Provision also explicitly excludes the Robert Green Parties.
Accordingly, the Exculpation Provision complies with the standard
articulated in In re PWS Holding Corp., 228 F.3d 224 (3d Cir. 2000).
(d) Injunctions. As set forth in the Confirmation Documents, the injunctions
set forth in Article XII.A of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan
(the "Injunction") are appropriate in that such Injunction is necessary to
implement, preserve and enforce the releases and exculpations set forth in
the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and is narrowly tailored to
achieve such purpose.
QQ. Substantive Consolidation. Article VII.I of the Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan provides for the substantive consolidation of the Debtors. Based on the record of these
Chapter 11 Cases, the acceptance of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan by the Settling
Creditors pursuant to the Global Settlement, and the acceptance of the Holders of Claims in Classes
3-11, 13, 20, and 25, the absence of any objections by parties impacted by the consolidation to
such request, this Court finds that such substantive consolidation of the Debtors and their Estates
is appropriate and justified in these Chapter 11 Cases.
16
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 17 of 30
RR. Post -Solicitation Amendments. The Debtors have proposed certain modifications
to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan since the commencement of solicitation thereon
in good faith, and the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, as modified, meets the
requirements of sections 1122 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying section
1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3019, these modifications do not
require additional disclosure under section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code or the re -solicitation of
votes under section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code.
SS. Retention of Jurisdiction. This Court may properly retain jurisdiction over the
matters set forth in Article XV of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the Bankruptcy
Code.
Based upon the foregoing findings, and upon the record made before this Court at
the Combined Hearing, and good and sufficient cause appearing therefor, it is hereby
ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:
Final Approval of Disclosure Statement
1. The Disclosure Statement is approved on a final basis pursuant to section 1125 of
the Bankruptcy Code as containing adequate information, and sufficient information of a kind
necessary to satisfy the disclosure requirements of any applicable non -bankruptcy laws, rules, and
regulations. All objections to approval of the Disclosure Statement not otherwise withdrawn,
resolved, or otherwise disposed of are overruled and denied on the merits.
Confirmation of the Plan
2. The Plan, as and to the extent modified by this Combined Order, is approved and
confirmed pursuant to section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. All objections to confirmation of the
Plan not withdrawn, resolved, or otherwise disposed of, including the Objection, are overruled and
denied on the merits.
17
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 18 of 30
3. The terms of the Plan are incorporated by reference into (except to the extent
modified by this Combined Order), and are an integral part of, this Combined Order. Each
provision of the Plan, as modified by this Combined Order, including the Global Settlement, is
authorized and approved and shall have the same validity, binding effect, and enforceability as this
Combined Order. The failure to specifically describe, include, or refer to any particular article,
section, or provision of the Plan, Plan Supplement, Global Settlement, or any related document in
this Combined Order shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such article, section, or
provision, and the Plan, the Plan Supplement, the Global Settlement, and all related documents are
approved and confirmed in their entirety as if set forth verbatim in this Combined Order.
Conditions Precedent
4. The Effective Date shall not occur unless the conditions precedent set forth in
Article XIII.A of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan have been satisfied or waived in
accordance with Section Article XIII.B of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.
Compromises and Settlements Under the Plan
5. Pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, upon the Effective Date,
all settlements and compromises set forth in the Plan, including, without limitation, the Global
Settlement, are approved in all respects, and constitute good faith compromises and settlements.
Classification and Treatment
6. The Plan's classification scheme is approved. The classifications and amounts set
forth on the Ballots (i) were set forth on the Ballots solely for purposes of voting to accept or reject
the Plan; (ii) do not necessarily represent, and in no event shall be deemed to modify or otherwise
affect, the actual classification or allowed amount of such Claims under the Plan for Distribution
purposes; (iii) may not be relied upon by any Holder as representing the actual classification or
allowed amount of any such Claim under the Plan for Distribution purposes; and (iv) shall not be
18
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 19 of 30
binding on the Debtors and/or the Litigation Trustee, as applicable, except for Plan voting
purposes.
Authorization to Implement the Plan
7. The Debtors and/or the Litigation Trustee, as applicable, are authorized to take or
cause to be taken all corporate actions necessary or appropriate to implement all provisions of, and
to consummate the Plan and to execute, enter into, or otherwise make effective all agreements,
documents, instruments, notices and certificates in connection therewith, prior to, on, and after the
Effective Date, all without further action under applicable law, regulation, order, or direction by
the pre -Effective Date officers or directors of the Debtors.
8. On or after the Effective Date, the Debtors, or the Litigation Trustee, as applicable,
are authorized to extinguish all Intercompany Claims to the extent the Debtors or Litigation
Trustee, as applicable, deem appropriate.
9. The approvals and authorizations specifically set forth in this Combined Order shall
not limit the authority of the Litigation Trustee or the Debtors, or any of their respective
representatives or agents, to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate to implement,
effectuate, and consummate any and all documents or transactions contemplated by the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Plan Supplement, including the Litigation Trust Agreement, or
this Combined Order.
Enforceability of the Plan
10. Pursuant to sections 1123(a), 1141(a) and 1142 of the Bankruptcy Code, the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and all related documents, including, but not limited to,
the Litigation Trust Agreement, shall be valid, binding, and enforceable.
11. On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall transfer to the Litigation Trust all of their
rights, title, and interest in and to all of the Litigation Trust Assets free and clear of all Liens,
19
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 20 of 30
Claims, and interests, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan or this Combined Order, in accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy
Code. Such transfer shall be exempt from any stamp, real estate transfer, other transfer, mortgage
reporting, sales, use, or other similar tax.
The Litigation Trust
12. On the Effective Date, the Litigation Trust, in accordance with the terms of the
Litigation Trust Agreement and the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, shall be established
and shall become effective. Pursuant to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the
Litigation Trust Agreement, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Litigation Trust Assets
shall vest in the Litigation Trust free and clear of all Liens, claims, and interests, except as
otherwise provided for by the Combined Disclosure Statement Plan (including as to the Liens and
interests securing the Claims of the Settling Creditors in the Sale proceeds which shall remain in
full force and effect as set forth in the Global Settlement). Upon the transfer of the Litigation Trust
Assets to the Litigation Trust, the Debtors shall have no further duties or responsibilities in
connection with the implementation of the Plan. The Litigation Trustee shall have the rights and
powers set forth in the Litigation Trust Agreement, including, but not limited to, the rights and
powers of a trustee under the Bankruptcy Code. The Litigation Trustee shall administer the
Litigation Trust and the Litigation Trust Assets and make Distributions in accordance with the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the Litigation Trust Agreement. The Litigation
Trustee shall take all actions necessary to wind down the affairs of the Debtors and these cases in
accordance with the terms of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and consistent with
applicable non -bankruptcy law.
13. Jacob Wood of Arkus Advisory is hereby appointed as the Litigation Trustee
effective as of the Effective Date. The Litigation Trustee shall be the exclusive representative of
20
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 21 of 30
the Debtors' Estates as that term is used in section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code with
respect to the rights, powers, authority, and responsibilities specified in the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, this Combined Order and the Litigation Trust Agreement. Except as provided
in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Litigation Trust Agreement or this Combined
Order, the Litigation Trustee shall be the Debtors' successor in interest with respect to the
Litigation Trust Assets, and all actions, claims, rights, or interests constituting Litigation Trust
Assets are preserved and retained and may be enforced by the Litigation Trustee as the
representative of the Debtors' Estates pursuant to Section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Litigation Trustee shall not have the power or authority to
pursue Claims or Causes of Action that are released or subject to exculpation under the Plan.
14. The formation, rights, powers, duties, structure, obligations, and other matters
pertaining to the Litigation Trust shall be governed by the Litigation Trust Agreement, the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and this Combined Order. The terms of the Litigation
Trust Agreement are consistent with the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and this
Combined Order and the Global Settlement, and are fair, reasonable and in the best interests of the
Debtors and their Estates as well as creditors, equity security holders, and other parties in interest.
The Litigation Trust Agreement is approved, subject to any amendments permitted under the
Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Litigation Trust Agreement, and this Combined
Order and in accordance with their respective terms. Pursuant to the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, the Court shall retain jurisdiction over the Litigation Trust.
15. The Litigation Trustee shall distribute the Litigation Trust Assets in accordance
with the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Litigation Trust Agreement, and orders of
the Court.
21
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 22 of 30
16. Without any further notice to any party or action, order or approval of the
Bankruptcy Court, the Litigation Trustee, on behalf of the Litigation Trust, may employ
professionals and pay in the ordinary course of business the reasonable fees of any employed
professional (including Professionals previously employed by the Debtors) for services rendered
or expenses incurred on and/or after the Effective Date or otherwise payable pursuant to the Plan
that, in the discretion of the Litigation Trustee, are necessary to assist the Litigation Trustee in the
performance of the Litigation Trustee's duties under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan
and the Litigation Trust Agreement, subject to any limitations and procedures established under
the Litigation Trust Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, such authorization shall include the
ability to compensate and reimburse the Debtors' Professionals for services rendered and expenses
incurred on and after the Effective Date, if any; provided, however, that such compensation and
reimbursement shall not be paid from the Sale Proceeds Reserve.
Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases
17. On the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease not previously rejected,
assumed, or assumed and assigned shall be deemed automatically rejected pursuant to sections 365
and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, unless such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease: (i) as of
the Effective Date is subject to a pending motion to assume such Unexpired Lease or Executory
Contract or (ii) is identified for assumption on the Assumption Schedule included in the Plan
Supplement. For the avoidance of doubt, Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases subject to
pending motions as set forth in this paragraph shall receive the treatment set forth in separate orders
of the Court with respect to such motions.
18. Unless otherwise provided by a Court order, any Proofs of Claim based on the
rejection of the Debtors' Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases pursuant to the Combined
22
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 23 of 30
Disclosure Statement and Plan must be filed with the Claims Agent and served on the Litigation
Trustee no later than thirty (30) days after notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date. Any
Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease not filed pursuant
to Article VIII of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and this paragraph shall be forever
disallowed and barred absent further order of the Court.
Administrative Claims
19. Except as provided for in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, requests
for payment of additional Administrative Claims must: (i) be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and
served on the Litigation Trustee; (ii) be in writing, together with supporting documents;
(iii) substantially comply with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules;
and (iv) be actually received on or before the Administrative Claims Bar Date. Failure to file and
serve an additional Administrative Claim timely and properly shall result in such additional
Administrative Claim being forever barred and released absent further order of the Court.
20. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan or this Combined Order extends, modifies, or alters any of the deadlines set forth in the Order
(I) Establishing Bar Dates and Related Procedures for Filing Proofs of Claim, Including 503(b)(9)
Claims, and Requests for Payment of Administrative Expenses; (II) Approving the Form and
Manner of Notice Thereof, and (III) Granting Related Relief [Docket No. 472].

procedures established by the Bankruptcy Code and the Order, Pursuant to Sections 105(a) and
331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016(a), and Local Rule 2016-2, Establishing

related provisions set forth in Article XII of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan are
hereby approved and authorized in their entirety, and such provisions are effective and binding on
all Entities as and to the extent provided for therein, subject to Release Opt -Outs.

23. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Combined Order, the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Plan Supplement, the Global Settlement, or the Litigation Trust
Agreement, nothing in this Combined Order, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the

limit, modify, release, alter, enjoin or otherwise preclude (i) the provisions of the Sale Order or the
other transaction documents or (ii) the Debtors', their Estates', the City's, or the Buyer's rights,

25
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 26 of 30
Miscellaneous
28. Notwithstanding any provision in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan,
this Combined Order, or any other related Plan documents: Nothing discharges or releases the
Debtors, or any non -debtor from any right, claim, liability, or cause of action of the United States
or any State, or impairs the ability of the United States or any State to pursue any claim, liability,
right, defense, or cause of action against any Debtor or non -debtor. Contracts, purchase orders,
agreements, leases, covenants, guaranties, indemnifications, operating rights agreements or other
interests of or with the United States or any State shall be, subject to any applicable legal or
equitable rights or defenses of the Debtors under applicable nonbankruptcy law paid, treated,
determined and administered in the ordinary course of business as if the Debtors' bankruptcy cases
were never filed and the Debtors shall comply with all applicable nonbankruptcy law. All claims,
liabilities, rights, causes of action, or defenses of or to the United States or any State shall survive
the Chapter 11 Cases as if they had not been commenced and be determined in the ordinary course
of business, including in the manner and by the administrative or judicial tribunals in which such
rights, defenses, claims, liabilities, or causes of action would have been resolved or adjudicated if
the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced; provided, that nothing in the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan or this Combined Order shall alter any legal or equitable rights or defenses of
the Debtors under nonbankruptcy law with respect to any such claim, liability or cause of action.
Without limiting the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing shall: (i) require the United
States or any State to file proofs of claim or administrative expense claims in the Chapter 11 Cases
for any right, claim, liability, defense, or cause of action; (ii) affect or impair the exercise of the
United States' or any State's police and regulatory powers against the Debtors or any non -debtor;
(iii) be interpreted to set cure amounts or to require the United States or any State to novate or
otherwise consent to the transfer of any federal or state contracts, purchase orders, agreements,
26
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 27 of 30
leases, covenants, guaranties, indemnifications, operating rights agreements or other interests; (iv)
affect or impair the United States' or any State's rights and defenses of setoff or recoupment, or
ability to assert setoff or recoupment against the Debtors and such rights and defenses are expressly
preserved; (v) constitute an approval or consent by the United States without compliance with all
applicable legal requirements and approvals under nonbankruptcy law; or (vi) relieve any party
from compliance with all licenses and permits issued by governmental units in accordance with
nonbankruptcy law.
29. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Traub Parties' vote to accept the Plan,
nothing set forth in the Plan or this Combined Order shall be construed to release or prejudge any
claims that SR Land or the Traub Trust has with respect to any amount that may be owed on
account of the SR Land TIC Interest; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall limit
or affect the releases provided pursuant to Article XII.E of the Plan.
30. The defined term "Poppy Beneficial Interests" in the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan is hereby amended and superseded in its entirety by the following: "Poppy
Beneficial Interests" mean the beneficial interests in the Litigation Trust that will be granted to
Poppy pursuant to the terms of the Global Settlement and that will entitle it to a priority distribution
from the Litigation Trust of up to $2,060,000.
31. The description of the City Release contained in Article XII.E of the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan is hereby amended and superseded in its entirety by the following:
In addition to the releases and exculpations set forth above, pursuant
to the Global Settlement, all Settling Creditors and the Debtors shall
release the City (and the Buyer, if requested) pursuant to a form of
release substantially consistent with the form of general release of
all claims, known and unknown, that will be filed in a supplemental
Plan Supplement, or as agreed to by the Settling Creditor and the
City or Buyer, as applicable; provided, however, that all parties'
rights are reserved with respect to discovery in connection with
27
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 28 of 30
proceedings to determine the Remaining Disputes under the
Bankruptcy Rules and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure;
provided, further, however, that the Settling Creditors' rights to
submit requests under the California Public Records Act ("CPRA")
or similar state or federal statutes related to the Project, the Debtors,
the Plan, the Sale, the adversary proceeding, and/or the Chapter 11
Cases are waived and released.
Notice of Entry of Combined Order and Effective Date
32. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rules 2002 and 3020(c), the Debtors are hereby authorized
to file and serve a notice of entry of this Combined Order and the occurrence of the Effective Date
on the Effective Date on all Holders of Claims against or Interests in the Debtors and all other
Persons on whom the Combined Hearing Notice was served. The Notice of Effective Date shall
constitute good and sufficient notice of the entry of this Combined Order and of the relief granted
herein, including, without limitation, any bar dates and deadlines established under the Combined
Disclosure Statement and Plan and this Combined Order, and no other or further notice of the entry
of this Combined Order, the occurrence of the Effective Date, and any such bar dates and deadlines

authority to send a notice to Entities stating that, to continue to receive documents pursuant to
Bankruptcy Rule 2002, such Entities must file a renewed request to receive documents pursuant
to Bankruptcy Rule 2002; provided, however, that the Settling Creditors shall be excused from the
above requirement to file a renewed request to receive documents pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule
2002. After the Effective Date, the Litigation Trust is hereby authorized to limit the list of Entities
receiving documents pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002 to (i) those Entities who have filed such
renewed requests and (ii) those Entities whose rights are affected by such documents.
28

Retention of Jurisdiction
34. Notwithstanding entry of this Combined Order and the occurrence of the Effective
Date, on and after the Effective Date, this Court shall retain jurisdiction over all matters arising
out of, or related to, these Chapter 11 Cases, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, and
Plan Documents, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including, among other things,
to take the actions specified in Article XV of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.
Rules Governing Conflicts Between Documents
35. In the event of an inconsistency between the Combined Disclosure Statement and
Plan and any other document other than this Combined Order or the Litigation Trust Agreement,
the terms of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan shall control (unless expressly stated
otherwise herein or in such other document). The provisions of the Combined Disclosure
Statement and Plan, Litigation Trust Agreement, the Global Settlement, and the Combined Order
shall be construed in a manner consistent with each other so as to effect the purposes of each;
provided that if there is determined to be any inconsistency between any Plan provision and any
provision of this Combined Order, the Global Settlement, or the Litigation Trust Agreement that
cannot be so reconciled, then, solely to the extent of such inconsistency, the provisions of this
Combined Order or the Litigation Trust Agreement, as applicable, (i) shall govern and any such
provision of this Combined Order or the Litigation Trust Agreement, as applicable, shall be
deemed a modification of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and (ii) shall control and
take precedence; provided, however, that the Litigation Trust Agreement may not materially and
adversely affect the interests, rights, treatment or Distributions of any Class of Allowed Claims or
Interests under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan or the scope or effectiveness of any
release or exculpation under or in connection with the Plan. In the event of an inconsistency
29
Case 24-11647-MFW Doc 1152 Filed 05/21/26 Page 30 of 30
between this Combined Order and the Litigation Trust Agreement, the terms of this Combined
Order shall govern solely to the extent of such inconsistency.

constitute a part of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan or this Combined Order for any
other purpose.
No Stay of Combined Order
37. Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 3020(e) and 6004(h) and any other Bankruptcy
Rule to the contrary, to the extent applicable, this Combined Order shall be effective and
enforceable immediately upon entry.
