To the extent that funds held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account are insufficient to satisfy the Allowed amount of Professional Fee Claims owing to the Professionals, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay such amounts within ten (10) Business Days after entry of the order approving such Professional Fee Claims.

(c) Professional Fee Reserve Amount

To receive payment for unbilled fees and expenses incurred through the Effective Date, the Professionals shall estimate their accrued and unpaid Professional Fee Claims prior to and as of the Effective Date and shall deliver such estimate to the Debtors, Gibson Dunn, and Akin, within five (5) days of the Effective Date. If a Professional does not provide such estimate, the Reorganized Debtors shall estimate the accrued and unpaid fees and expenses of such Professional in consultation with the Ad Hoc Groups Advisors; provided that such estimate shall not be considered an admission or limitation with respect to the fees and expenses of such Professional. The total amount so estimated as of the Effective Date shall comprise the Professional Fee Reserve Amount; provided that the Reorganized Debtors shall use Cash on hand to increase the amount of the Professional Fee Escrow Account to the extent fee applications are Filed after the Effective Date in excess of the amount held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account based on such estimates.

24

(d) Post-Confirmation Date Fees and Expenses

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, from and after the Confirmation Date, each Reorganized Debtor shall in the ordinary course of business pay (subject to the receipt of an invoice) in Cash the reasonable and documented legal, professional, or other fees and expenses incurred by such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable) after the Confirmation Date without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Upon the Confirmation Date, any requirement that Professionals comply with sections 327 through 331 and 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code in seeking retention or compensation for services rendered after such date shall terminate, and each Reorganized Debtor may employ and pay any Professional in the ordinary course of business without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

All Postpetition Securitization Program Claims shall be Allowed Claims. Except to the extent that a Holder of an Allowed Postpetition Securitization Program Claim agrees to less favorable treatment, any Claims against the Debtors arising under the Postpetition Securitization Program or the Postpetition Securitization Program Orders shall be (a) paid in full in Cash in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Postpetition Securitization Program or (b) consensually amended and extended on the Effective Date into the Exit Securitization Program.

On the Effective Date, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, all reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the advisors to the parties to the Postpetition Securitization Program shall be paid in full in Cash to the extent required under the Final Postpetition Securitization Program Orders.

Except to the extent that a Holder of an Allowed DIP Claim agrees to less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of, and in exchange for its Allowed DIP Claim, on the Effective Date each Holder of an Allowed DIP Claim shall be entitled on account of such DIP Claim, at such Holder’s option, to either (i) have such DIP Claim be repaid in full in Cash or (ii) have its Pro Rata share of DIP Loans converted into First-Out Exit Term Loans on a dollar-for-dollar basis; provided that to the extent that the principal amount of DIP Loans held by Electing DIP Lenders as of the Effective Date exceeds $25 million, each Electing DIP Lender shall receive its Pro Rata share of $25 million of First-Out Exit Term Loans, and any DIP Loans held by such Electing DIP Lenders that are not converted on a dollar-for-dollar basis into their Pro Rata share of $25 million of First-Out Exit Term Loans shall be paid in Cash.

In addition to receiving First-Out Exit Term Loans, each Holder of an Allowed DIP Claim that is an Electing DIP Lender shall be entitled to its Pro Rata share of the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution.

25

To the extent a Holder of an Allowed DIP Claim does not elect to convert its DIP Claim into First-Out Exit Term Loans, such Holder shall have its DIP Claim paid in full in Cash, and to the extent such non-converting Holder does not otherwise fund in Cash its Pro Rata share of First-Out Exit Term Loans, any resulting deficit will be backstopped by the Exit Backstop Parties. The Exit Backstop Parties shall fund any such deficit in Cash (Pro Rata based on the percentages indicated on Exhibit 7 to the Restructuring Support Agreement) and in exchange each Exit Backstop Party will receive its Pro Rata share (based on the percentages indicated on Exhibit 7 to the Restructuring Support Agreement) of (i) the First-Out Exit Term Loans and (ii) the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution that otherwise would have been paid to such non-converting DIP Lender had such DIP Lender elected to convert its DIP Claims to First-Out Exit Term Loans or otherwise fund in Cash such First-Out Exit Term Loans.

Subject to Article VIII hereof, except to the extent that a Holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim agrees to a less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of and in exchange for each Allowed Priority Tax Claim, each Holder of such Allowed Priority Tax Claim shall be treated in accordance with the terms set forth in section 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code and, for the avoidance of doubt, Holders of Allowed Priority Tax Claims will receive, if legally required, interest on such Allowed Priority Tax Claims after the Effective Date in accordance with sections 511 and 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code. To the extent any Allowed Priority Tax Claim is not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim shall be paid in accordance with the terms of any agreement between the Reorganized Debtors and the Holder of such Claim, or as may be due and payable under applicable non-bankruptcy law, or in the ordinary course of business. On the Effective Date, any Liens securing any Allowed Priority Tax Claims shall be deemed released, terminated, and extinguished, in each case without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act, or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule, or the vote, consent, authorization, or approval of any Person.

All fees due and payable pursuant to section 1930 of chapter 123 of the Judicial Code prior to the Effective Date shall be paid by the Debtors. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay any and all such fees when due and payable, and shall File with the Bankruptcy Court quarterly reports in a form reasonably acceptable to the United States Trustee. Each Debtor shall remain obligated to pay quarterly fees to the United States Trustee until the earliest of that particular Debtor’s case being closed, dismissed, or converted to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

26

ARTICLE III.

CLASSIFICATION AND TREATMENT

OF CLASSIFIED CLAIMS AND EQUITY INTERESTS

This Plan constitutes a separate plan of reorganization for each Debtor. Except for the Claims addressed in Article II of this Plan, all Claims and Equity Interests are classified in the Classes set forth below. In accordance with section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have not classified Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims, as described in Article II.

The categories of Claims and Equity Interests listed below classify Claims and Equity Interests for all purposes, including, without limitation, for voting, confirmation and distribution pursuant hereto and pursuant to sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. This Plan deems a Claim or Equity Interest to be classified in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Equity Interest qualifies within the description of that Class and shall be deemed classified in a different Class to the extent that any remaining portion of such Claim or Equity Interest qualifies within the description of such different Class. A Claim or Equity Interest is in a particular Class only to the extent that any such Claim or Equity Interest is Allowed in that Class and has not been paid, released, disallowed or otherwise settled prior to the Effective Date.

Summary of Classification and Treatment of Classified Claims and Equity Interests

27

1. Class 1 – Other Priority Claims

2. Class 2 – Other Secured Claims

28

3. Class 3 – Secured Tax Claims

29

4. Class 4 – First Lien Claims

30

5. Class 5 – Second Lien Notes Claims

6. Class 6 – General Unsecured Claims

31

7. Class 7 – 510(b) Claims

8. Class 8 – Intercompany Claims

9. Class 9 – Intercompany Interests

32

10. Class 10 – Existing Parent Equity Interests

Except as otherwise provided herein, nothing under this Plan shall affect or limit the Debtors’ or the Reorganized Debtors’ rights and defenses (whether legal or equitable) in respect of any Unimpaired Claims, including, without limitation, all rights in respect of legal and equitable defenses to or setoffs or recoupments against any such Unimpaired Claims.

Any Class of Claims that is not occupied as of the commencement of the Combined Hearing by an Allowed Claim or a Claim temporarily Allowed under Bankruptcy Rule 3018, or as to which no vote is cast, shall be deemed eliminated from this Plan for purposes of voting to accept or reject this Plan and for purposes of determining acceptance or rejection of this Plan by such Class pursuant to section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE IV.

ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN

Classes 1, 2, 3, and 6 are Unimpaired under this Plan. Therefore, the Holders of Claims or Equity Interests in such Classes are conclusively presumed to have accepted this Plan pursuant to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and are not entitled to vote to accept or reject this Plan. Classes 8 and 9 are Impaired under this Plan; however, because the Holders of such Claims and Equity Interests are Debtors, the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Classes 8 and 9 are conclusively presumed to have accepted this Plan. Notwithstanding their non-voting status, Holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Classes 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 10 will receive a Release Opt Out Form to allow such Holders to affirmatively opt out of the Third Party Release.

33

Classes 7 and 10 are Impaired under the Plan and Holders of 510(b) Claims or Existing Parent Equity Interests in such Classes shall receive no distribution under this Plan on account of such 510(b) Claims or Existing Parent Equity Interests. Therefore, the Holders of Claims or Equity Interests in such Classes are deemed to have rejected this Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and are not entitled to vote to accept or reject this Plan. Such Holders will, however, receive a Release Opt Out Form to allow such Holders to affirmatively opt out of the Third Party Release.

Classes 4 and 5 are Impaired under this Plan. The Holders of Claims in such Classes as of the Voting Record Date are entitled to vote to accept or reject this Plan.

If a Class contains Claims eligible to vote and no Holder of Claims eligible to vote in such Class votes to accept or reject the Plan, the Plan shall be presumed accepted by the Holders of such Claims in such Class.

Pursuant to section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code and except as otherwise provided in section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, an Impaired Class of Claims has accepted this Plan if the Holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount and more than one-half (1/2) in number of the Allowed Claims in such Class actually voting have voted to accept this Plan.

If a controversy arises as to whether any Claims or Equity Interests, or any Class of Claims or Equity Interests, is Impaired or properly classified under the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court shall, after notice and a hearing, determine such controversy at or before the Combined Hearing.

Section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be satisfied for purposes of Confirmation by acceptance of this Plan by either of Class 4 or Class 5. The Debtors request confirmation of this Plan under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any Impaired Class that does not accept this Plan pursuant to section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors reserve the right, subject to the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, to modify this Plan or the Plan Supplement in order to satisfy the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, if necessary.

34

To the extent reinstated under the Plan, the Intercompany Interests shall be reinstated for the ultimate benefit of the Holders of the New Common Stock and in exchange for the Debtors’ and Reorganized Debtors’ agreement under the Plan to make certain distributions to the Holders of Allowed Claims. Distributions on account of the Intercompany Interests are not being received by Holders of such Intercompany Interests on account of their Intercompany Interests but for the purposes of administrative convenience and to maintain the corporate structure. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent reinstated pursuant to the Plan, on and after the Effective Date, all Intercompany Interests shall be owned by the same Reorganized Debtor that corresponds with the Debtor that owned such Intercompany Interests prior to the Effective Date.

The Debtors have, and upon Confirmation shall be deemed to have, solicited votes on this Plan from the Voting Classes in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, and any applicable non-bankruptcy law, rule, or regulation governing the adequacy of disclosure in connection with the solicitation. Accordingly, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and each of their respective Related Parties shall be entitled to, and upon Confirmation are granted, the protections of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE V.

MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

Without limiting any rights and remedies of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors under this Plan or applicable law, the entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute authorization for the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions necessary or appropriate to consummate and implement the provisions of this Plan prior to, on and after the Effective Date, subject to the consent rights and agreements and obligations contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement. Such restructuring may include one or more issuances, transfers, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, restructurings, dispositions, liquidations, conversions, elections, dissolutions, cancellations, formations, or creations of one or more new Entities, as may be determined by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, to be necessary or appropriate, but in all cases subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Restructuring Documents and any consents or approvals required hereunder or thereunder (including, without limitation, receipt of the FCC Interim Long Form Approval) (collectively, the “Restructuring Transactions”).

35

All such Restructuring Transactions taken, or caused to be taken, shall be deemed to have been authorized and approved by the Bankruptcy Court upon the entry of the Confirmation Order. The actions to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions may include: (a) the execution and delivery of appropriate agreements or other documents of issuance, transfer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, restructuring, disposition, liquidation, conversion, elections, cancellation, formation, creation, or dissolution containing terms that are consistent with the terms of this Plan and that satisfy the applicable requirements of applicable state law and such other terms to which the applicable Entities may agree; (b) the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of issuance, transfer, assignment, assumption, distribution, contribution, direction, or delegation of any asset, property, right, liability, duty, or obligation on terms consistent with the terms of this Plan and having such other terms to which the applicable Entities may agree; (c) the filing of appropriate certificates or articles of issuance, transfer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, restructuring, disposition, liquidation, cancellation, formation, creation, conversion, or dissolution, or the filing of elections, pursuant to applicable state law; (d) the creation of one or more new Entities; (e) the filing of any required FCC Application(s); and (f) all other actions that the applicable Entities determine to be necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, making filings or recordings that may be required by applicable state law in connection with such transactions, but in all cases subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan and the Restructuring Documents and any consents or approvals required hereunder or thereunder.

The Restructuring Transactions shall include, but not be limited to, the Restructuring Transactions set forth in the Restructuring Transaction Steps Memorandum. Pursuant to sections 363 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Confirmation Order shall and shall be deemed to authorize the Restructuring Transactions, including, without limitation, those set forth in the Restructuring Transaction Steps Memorandum, which shall and shall be deemed to occur in the sequence set forth therein.

Subject to the Restructuring Transactions permitted by Article V.A of this Plan, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to exist as separate legal Entities in accordance with the applicable law in the respective jurisdiction in which they are incorporated or formed and pursuant to their respective certificates or articles of incorporation and by-laws, or other applicable organizational documents, in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date, except to the extent such certificates or articles of incorporation and by-laws, or other applicable organizational documents, are amended, restated, cancelled, or otherwise modified by the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or otherwise, and to the extent any such document is amended, such document is deemed amended pursuant to the Plan and requires no further action or approval (other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Claims against a particular Debtor or Reorganized Debtor shall remain the obligations solely of such respective Debtor or Reorganized Debtor and shall not become obligations of any other Debtor or Reorganized Debtor solely by virtue of this Plan or the Chapter 11 Cases.

The Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized to dissolve the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with applicable law or otherwise, in each case as contemplated by the Restructuring Transaction Steps Memorandum, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any conversion of any of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to applicable law, and to the extent any such Entity is dissolved, such Entity shall be deemed dissolved pursuant to the Plan and shall require no further action or approval (other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law).

36

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, the Confirmation Order, or any Restructuring Document, pursuant to sections 1123(a)(5), 1123(b)(3), 1141(b) and (c) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, on and after the Effective Date, all property and assets of the Estates of the Debtors, all claims, rights, and Litigation Claims of the Debtors, and any other assets or property acquired by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases or under or in connection with this Plan (other than Claims or Causes of Action subject to the Debtor Release, the Professional Fee Escrow Account and any rejected Executory Contracts and/or Unexpired Leases), shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, and other encumbrances, subject to the Restructuring Transactions and Liens that survive the occurrence of the Effective Date as described in Article III of this Plan. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may (a) operate their respective businesses, (b) use, acquire, and dispose of their respective property and (c) compromise or settle any Claims, in each case without notice to, supervision of or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free and clear of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules, other than restrictions expressly imposed by this Plan or the Confirmation Order.

On the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be authorized to execute and deliver, and to consummate the transactions contemplated by, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents and without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person or Entity (other than as expressly required by the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents). On the Effective Date, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and authorized indebtedness and obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and such indebtedness and obligations shall not be, and shall not be deemed to be, enjoined or subject to discharge, impairment, release or avoidance under this Plan, the Confirmation Order or on account of the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan.

On and as of the Effective Date, all Electing DIP Lenders and Holders of Allowed First Lien Claims shall be deemed to be parties to, and bound by, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Agreement, without the need for execution thereof by any such DIP Lender or Holder of an Allowed First Lien Claim.

The Exit Term Loan Facility shall consist of: (a) a maximum of $25 million (subject to reduction as set forth below) of First-Out Exit Term Loans comprised of converted DIP Loans (or new loans from Electing DIP Lenders that opt to fund their share of First-Out Exit Term Loans in Cash) or new loans to the extent that Electing DIP Lenders hold less than $25 million of DIP Loans; and (b) Second-Out Exit Term Loans comprised of takeback debt to be provided to Holders of Allowed First Lien Claims, in an aggregate principal amount equal to (and in no event more than) $250 million minus the amount of the First-Out Exit Term Loans, subject to adjustment set forth below.

37

The principal amount of First-Out Exit Term Loans shall be adjusted downward on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent that the Debtors are, immediately prior to the Effective Date, projected to have in excess of $50 million in Cash immediately following the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the total amount of the Exit Term Loan Facility shall not exceed $250 million in the aggregate.

By voting to accept this Plan, each DIP Lender and First Lien Lender thereby instructs and directs the Distribution Agent and the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent (as applicable), to (a) act as Distribution Agent to the extent required by this Plan, (b) execute and deliver the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents (each to the extent it is a party thereto), as well as to execute, deliver, file, record and issue any notes, documents (including UCC financing statements), or agreements in connection therewith, to which the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent is a party and to promptly consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, and (c) take any other actions required or contemplated to be taken by the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent and/or the Distribution Agent (as applicable) under this Plan or any of the Restructuring Documents to which it is a party.

To the extent required and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to constitute approval by the Bankruptcy Court of the Exit Securitization Program and the Exit Securitization Program Documents and, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, authorization for the applicable Reorganized Debtors to enter into and perform their obligations under the applicable Exit Securitization Program Documents and such other documents as may be reasonably required or appropriate.

On the Effective Date, the Exit Securitization Program Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding, and authorized obligations of the applicable Reorganized Debtors party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and such obligations shall not be, and shall not be deemed to be, enjoined or subject to discharge, impairment, release or avoidance under this Plan, the Confirmation Order or on account of the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan. Upon execution of the Exit Securitization Program Documents, all Liens and security interests granted by the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to, or in connection with, the Exit Securitization Program shall be valid, binding, perfected, enforceable Liens and security interests in the property subject to a security interest granted by the applicable Reorganized Debtors pursuant to the Exit Securitization Program, with the priorities established in respect thereof under applicable non-bankruptcy law.

On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, subject to Article V.H and the terms and conditions of the Restructuring Transactions, Reorganized Parent shall issue the Plan Securities to (a) Electing DIP Lenders, (b) Holders of Allowed First Lien Claims in Class 4, and (c) Holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims in Class 5, as and if applicable. In each case, the New Common Stock and Special Warrants shall be subject to dilution on account of the

38

MIP Equity and the New Second Lien Warrants. The allocation of New Common Stock and Special Warrants among the Electing DIP Lenders, the Holders of Allowed First Lien Claims, and the Holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims (including upon exercise of the New Second Lien Warrants) shall be made in accordance with the Equity Allocation Mechanism and pursuant to this Plan. The Class A New Common Stock and the Class B New Common Stock shall carry voting rights in accordance with the New Governance Documents. The limited voting rights given to the Class B New Common Stock shall be designed such that Holders of Class B New Common Stock shall not be deemed to hold an attributable interest in the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with Communications Laws as a result of holding such shares of Class B New Common Stock. Reorganized Parent does not intend to list the New Common Stock on the NYSE, NASDAQ, or any other national securities exchange, and none of the Reorganized Debtors intends to be subject to reporting obligations under Sections 12(b), 12(g) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or similar statutory public reporting obligations, in respect of the New Common Stock or any other Plan Securities (the “Reporting Obligations”), and except as otherwise expressly provided in the New Governance Documents or required by applicable law, Reorganized Parent shall not be obligated to list the Plan Securities on any national securities exchange or to register the Plan Securities under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. The Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting Lenders) and Reorganized Debtors intend to take such reasonable actions in connection with the allocation of the New Common Stock or other Plan Securities to ensure that none of the Reorganized Debtors will be subject to any Reporting Obligations, and holders of Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed First Lien Claims and Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims shall use good faith efforts to cooperate with the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in such actions.

Distribution of the Plan Securities may be made by delivery of stock certificates or book-entry transfer thereof by (or at the direction or consent of) the applicable Distribution Agent in accordance with this Plan, the Equity Allocation Mechanism, the Warrants Agreements, and the New Governance Documents. Upon the Effective Date, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, the authorized capital stock or other equity securities of Reorganized Parent shall be the number of shares of New Common Stock as may be designated in the New Governance Documents and the Warrants Agreements.

Subject to the Restructuring Transactions permitted by Article V.A of this Plan, on the Effective Date, Reorganized Parent shall enter into the New Shareholders’ Agreement, which shall become effective and binding in accordance with its terms and conditions upon the parties thereto, without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Entity (other than as expressly required by the New Shareholders’ Agreement).

On and as of the Effective Date, each Holder of New Common Stock shall be deemed to be a party to the New Shareholders’ Agreement without the need for execution by such Holder. The New Shareholders’ Agreement shall be binding on all Entities receiving, and all Holders of, the Plan Securities (and their respective successors and assigns), whether such New Common Stock is received or to be received on or after the Effective Date and regardless of whether such Entity executes or delivers a signature page to the New Shareholders’ Agreement.

39

On and after the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized to and shall provide or issue the Plan Securities (including the issuance of New Common Stock upon exercise of the Special Warrants and/or New Second Lien Warrants and Class A New Common Stock upon conversion of Class B New Common Stock) and any and all other notes, stock, instruments, certificates, and other documents or agreements required to be distributed, issued, executed or delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Plan, in each case without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Entity.

The offering, issuance, and distribution of Plan Securities (including the issuance of New Common Stock upon exercise of the Special Warrants or the New Second Lien Warrants and Class A New Common Stock upon conversion of Class B New Common Stock) with respect to the First Lien Claims Equity Distribution and the Second Lien Notes Claims Equity Distribution shall be exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable law requiring registration before the offering, issuance, distribution or sale of securities pursuant to section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Plan Securities (including the issuance of New Common Stock upon exercise of the Special Warrants and Class A New Common Stock upon conversion of Class B New Common Stock) issued with respect to the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act set forth in Section 4(a)(2), Regulation D and/or Regulation S.

The Plan Securities with respect to the First Lien Claims Equity Distribution and Second Lien Notes Claims Equity Distribution issued and distributed pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code shall be freely transferable by the recipients thereof, subject to (a) any limitations that may be applicable to any Person receiving such securities that is an “affiliate” of Reorganized Parent as determined in accordance with applicable U.S. securities law and regulations or is otherwise an “underwriter” as defined in section 1145(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) any transfer restrictions of such securities and instruments in the New Governance Documents; and (c) the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including any applicable required FCC approval.

The Plan Securities issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2), Regulation D and/or Regulation S will be “restricted securities” subject to resale restrictions and may be resold, exchanged, assigned or otherwise transferred only pursuant to registration (or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements) under the Securities Act and other applicable law. Such securities will also be subject to any transfer restrictions in the New Governance Documents and the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including any applicable required FCC approval.

Reorganized Parent does not intend to list the New Common Stock on the NYSE, NASDAQ, or any other national securities exchange, and none of the Reorganized Debtors intends to be subject to any Reporting Obligations in respect of the New Common Stock or any other Plan Securities, and except as otherwise expressly provided in the New Governance Documents or required by applicable law, Reorganized Parent shall not be obligated to list the Plan Securities on any national securities exchange or to register the Plan Securities under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

40

Should the Reorganized Debtors elect, on or after the Effective Date, to reflect all or any portion of the ownership of Plan Securities through the facilities of DTC (and any stock transfer agent), the Reorganized Debtors shall not be required to provide any further evidence to DTC (or any stock transfer agent) other than the Plan or Confirmation Order with respect to the treatment of such applicable portion of the Plan Securities, and such Plan or Confirmation Order shall be deemed to be legal and binding obligations of the Reorganized Debtors in all respects.

DTC (and any stock transfer agent) shall be required to accept and conclusively rely upon the Plan and Confirmation Order in lieu of a legal opinion regarding whether the Plan Securities are exempt from registration and/or eligible for DTC book-entry delivery, settlement, and depository services.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, neither DTC nor any stock transfer agent may require a legal opinion regarding the validity of any transaction contemplated by the Plan, including, for the avoidance of doubt, whether the Plan Securities (including the New Common Stock, Special Warrants, New Second Lien Warrants, and New Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Special Warrants and/or New Second Lien Warrants) are exempt from registration and/or eligible for DTC book-entry delivery, settlement, and depository services.

Within 120 days following the Effective Date, the New Board shall adopt a management incentive plan that provides for the issuance of the MIP Equity to employees and directors of the Reorganized Debtors. Ten percent (10%) of the fully diluted New Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date (inclusive of the shares that may be issued in connection with the exercise of the Special Warrants, but excluding shares that may be issued in connection with the exercise of the New Second Lien Warrants) shall be reserved for issuance under the Management Incentive Plan. The amount of New Common Stock to be allocated and awarded under the Management Incentive Plan, the form of the MIP Equity (i.e., stock options, restricted stock, appreciation rights, other equity-based awards, etc.), the participants in the Management Incentive Plan, the allocations of the MIP Equity to such participants (including the amount of allocations and the timing of the grant of the MIP Equity, except as provided herein), and the terms and conditions of the MIP Equity (including vesting, exercise prices, base values, hurdles, forfeiture, repurchase rights and transferability) shall be determined by the New Board in its sole discretion.

The allowance, classification, and treatment of satisfying all Claims and Equity Interests proposed under the Plan takes into consideration any and all subordination rights, whether arising by contract or under general principles of equitable subordination, the DIP Orders, section 510(b) or 510(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise. On the Effective Date, any and all subordination rights or obligations that a Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest may have with respect to any distribution to be made under the Plan will be discharged and terminated, and all actions related to

41

the enforcement of such subordination rights will be enjoined permanently. Accordingly, distributions under the Plan to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Equity Interests will not be subject to turnover or payment to a beneficiary of such terminated subordination rights, or to levy, garnishment, attachment or other legal process by a beneficiary of such terminated subordination rights; provided that any such subordination rights shall be preserved in the event the Confirmation Order is vacated, the Effective Date does not occur in accordance with the terms hereunder or the Plan is revoked or withdrawn.

To the fullest extent provided under section 1141(c) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise provided herein (including, without limitation, Articles V.D and V.E of this Plan) or in any contract, instrument, release or other agreement or document entered into or delivered in connection with this Plan, on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable distributions made pursuant to Article VII hereof, all Liens, Claims, mortgages, deeds of trust, or other security interests against the assets or property of the Debtors or the Estates shall be fully released, canceled, terminated, extinguished and discharged, in each case without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person or Entity. The filing of the Confirmation Order with any federal, state, or local agency or department shall constitute good and sufficient evidence of, but shall not be required to effect, the termination of such Liens, Claims and other interests to the extent provided in the immediately preceding sentence. Any Person or Entity holding such Liens, Claims or interests shall, pursuant to section 1142 of the Bankruptcy Code, promptly execute and deliver to the Reorganized Debtors such instruments of termination, release, satisfaction and/or assignment (in recordable form) as may be reasonably requested by the Reorganized Debtors.

On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, the Reorganized Debtors’ respective certificates of incorporation and bylaws (and other formation and constituent documents relating to limited liability companies) shall be amended or amended and restated, as applicable, as may be required to be consistent with the provisions of the Plan and the Bankruptcy Code. To the extent required under the Plan or applicable non-bankruptcy law, the Reorganized Debtors will file their respective New Governance Documents with the applicable Secretaries of State and/or other applicable authorities in their respective states, provinces, or countries of incorporation in accordance with the corporate or other applicable laws of the respective states, provinces, or countries of incorporation or organization. The New Governance Documents shall, among other things: (i) authorize the issuance of the Plan Securities; and (ii) pursuant to and only to the extent required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, include a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity Securities. Subject to Article VI.E of the Plan, after the Effective Date each Reorganized Debtor may amend and restate its certificate of incorporation and other formation and constituent documents as permitted by the laws of its respective jurisdiction of formation and the terms of the New Governance Documents, and the Plan.

42

Each of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may take any and all actions to execute, deliver, File or record such contracts, instruments, releases and other agreements or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, implement, and further evidence the provisions of this Plan, including, without limitation, the issuance, transfer, or distribution of the Plan Securities to be issued pursuant hereto, and without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, any act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action, vote or other approval or authorization by the security holders, officers or directors of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors or by any other Person (except for those expressly required pursuant hereto).

Prior to, on or after the Effective Date (as appropriate), all matters provided for pursuant to this Plan that would otherwise require approval of the stockholders, directors, officers, managers, members or partners of the Debtors (as of prior to the Effective Date) shall be deemed to have been so approved and shall be in effect prior to, on or after the Effective Date (as appropriate) pursuant to applicable law and without any requirement of further action by such Person or Entity, or the need for any approvals, authorizations, actions or consents of or from any such Person or Entity.

As of the Effective Date, all matters provided for in this Plan involving the legal or corporate structure of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors (including, without limitation, the adoption of the New Governance Documents and similar constituent and organizational documents, and the selection of directors and officers for, each of the Reorganized Debtors), and any legal or corporate action required by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection with this Plan including, without limitation, in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of the Warrants Agreements, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents, and the Exit Securitization Program Documents, shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in full force and effect in all respects, in each case without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action, vote or other approval or authorization by any Person or Entity.

On and after the Effective Date, the appropriate officers of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors are authorized to issue, execute, and deliver, and consummate the transactions contemplated by, the contracts, agreements, documents, guarantees, pledges, consents, securities, certificates, resolutions and instruments contemplated by or described in this Plan in the name of and on behalf of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, and without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action, vote or other approval or authorization by any Person or Entity. The secretary and any assistant secretary of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized to certify or attest to any of the foregoing actions.

43

As of the Effective Date, the terms of the current members of the board of directors of Parent shall expire and the New Board shall be appointed. Except to the extent that a current director on the board of directors of Parent is designated to serve on the New Board, the current directors on the board of directors of Parent prior to the Effective Date, in their capacities as such, shall be deemed to have resigned or shall otherwise cease to be a director of Parent on the Effective Date. Each independent director of the Debtors, in such capacity, shall not have any of his/her respective privileged and confidential documents, communications, or information transferred (or deemed transferred) to the Reorganized Debtors, Reorganized Parent, or any other Entity without such director’s prior written consent.

On the Effective Date, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Plan (including, without limitation, Articles V.D and V.E of this Plan), all notes, stock, instruments, certificates, credit agreements and other agreements and documents evidencing or relating to the First Lien Claims, the Second Lien Notes Claims, any Impaired Claim and/or the Existing Parent Equity Interests, shall be canceled and the obligations of (i) the Debtors thereunder or in any way related thereto shall be fully released, terminated, extinguished and discharged, in each case without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action, vote or other approval or authorization by any Person or Entity, and (ii) the Second Lien Indenture Trustee shall be discharged and its duties deemed satisfied except (to the extent applicable) with respect to such Second Lien Indenture Trustee serving as the Distribution Agent with respect to the applicable Second Lien Notes Claims; provided that the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents shall continue in effect for the limited purpose of allowing Holders of Claims thereunder to receive, and allowing and preserving the rights of the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Indenture Trustee or other applicable Distribution Agent thereunder to make (or cause to be made), distributions under this Plan. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Plan and the Restructuring Documents, upon completion of all such distributions, the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents and any and all notes, securities and instruments issued in connection therewith shall terminate completely without further notice or action and be deemed surrendered.

Notwithstanding Confirmation or the occurrence of the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided herein, only such provisions that, by their express terms, survive the termination or the satisfaction and discharge of the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents, as applicable, shall survive the occurrence of the Effective Date, including the rights of the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Indenture Trustee to assert, pursue and be paid with respect to any charging liens, expense reimbursement, indemnification, and similar amounts.

All Cash necessary for the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, to make payments required pursuant to this Plan will be obtained from their respective Cash balances, including Cash from operations, the DIP Facility, the Exit Term Loan Facility, and the Exit Securitization Program. Cash payments to be made pursuant to the Plan will be made by the Reorganized Debtors. The Reorganized Debtors will be entitled to transfer funds between and among themselves as they determine to be necessary or appropriate to enable the Reorganized Debtors to make the payments and distributions required by the Plan, subject, to the extent applicable, to the terms of the Exit Term Loan Facility and the Exit Securitization Program. To

44

the extent consistent with any applicable limitations set forth in any applicable post-Effective Date agreement (including the Exit Term Loan Facility and the Exit Securitization Program), any changes in intercompany account balances resulting from such transfers will be accounted for and settled in accordance with the Debtors’ historical intercompany account settlement practices and will not violate the terms of the Plan.

From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, subject to any applicable limitations set forth in any post-Effective Date agreement (including the New Governance Documents, the Exit Term Loan Facility, and the Exit Securitization Program), shall have the right and authority without further order of the Bankruptcy Court to raise additional capital and obtain additional financing as the boards of directors of the applicable Reorganized Debtors deem appropriate.

In accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except where such Causes of Action have been expressly released (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the Debtor Releases provided in Article X.B and the Exculpation contained in Article X.E of this Plan), the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue, as appropriate, any and all Causes of Action, whether arising before or after the Petition Date, including, without limitation, any actions specifically identified in the Plan Supplement or the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action, and the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to commence, prosecute or settle such Causes of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date. The Reorganized Debtors, as the successors-in-interest to the Debtors and the Estates, may, and shall have the exclusive right to, enforce, sue on, settle, compromise, transfer or assign (or decline to do any of the foregoing) any or all of such Causes of Action without notice to or approval from the Bankruptcy Court.

No Entity (other than the Consenting Lenders, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the DIP Backstop Parties and the Exit Backstop Parties) may rely on the absence of a specific reference in the Plan, the Plan Supplement (including the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action), or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action against it as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action of the Debtors against it. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity.

The Debtors expressly reserve all Causes of Action and Litigation Claims for later adjudication by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors (including, without limitation, Causes of Action and Litigation Claims not specifically identified in the Plan Supplement or the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action or of which the Debtors may presently be unaware or which may arise or exist by reason of additional facts or circumstances unknown to the Debtors at this time or facts or circumstances that may change or be different from those the Debtors now believe to exist) and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including, without limitation, the doctrines of res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, waiver, estoppel (judicial, equitable or otherwise) or laches shall apply to such Causes of Action or Litigation Claims upon or after the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan based on the Disclosure Statement, this Plan or the

45

Confirmation Order, except in each case where such Causes of Action or Litigation Claims have been expressly waived, relinquished, released, compromised or settled in this Plan (including, without limitation, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Releases contained in Article X.B and Exculpation contained in Article X.E hereof) or any other Final Order (including, without limitation, the Confirmation Order and the DIP Orders). In addition, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve the right to pursue or adopt any claims alleged in any lawsuit in which any of the Debtors are a plaintiff, defendant or an interested party, against any Person or Entity, including, without limitation, the plaintiffs or co-defendants in such lawsuits.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors do not reserve any Causes of Action or Litigation Claims that have been expressly released (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Claims against the Consenting Lenders, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the DIP Backstop Parties and the Exit Backstop Parties and Claims otherwise released pursuant to the Debtor Releases provided in Article X.B and the Exculpation contained in Article X.E of this Plan).

The Restructuring Expenses incurred, or estimated to be incurred, up to and including the Effective Date shall be paid in full in Cash on the Effective Date (to the extent not previously paid during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms set forth herein and in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the First Lien Credit Documents, the Second Lien Notes Documents and/or DIP Orders, as applicable, without any requirement to File a fee application with the Bankruptcy Court or for Bankruptcy Court review or approval. On or before the date that is five days prior to the Effective Date, invoices for all Restructuring Expenses incurred or estimated to be incurred prior to and as of the Effective Date shall be submitted to the Debtors and paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms set forth herein and in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the First Lien Credit Documents, the Second Lien Notes Documents and/or DIP Orders, as applicable,. In addition, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors (as applicable) shall continue to pay, when due and payable in the ordinary course, the Restructuring Expenses related to this Plan and implementation, Consummation, and defense of the Restructuring Transactions, whether incurred before, on, or after the Effective Date, in accordance with any applicable engagement letter, the First Lien Credit Documents and/or the Second Lien Notes Documents.

The Debtors shall file the required FCC Short Form Application(s) and the FCC Interim Long Form Application(s) as promptly as practicable following the Petition Date and in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Debtors shall file a Petition for Declaratory Ruling and FCC Second Long Form Application (if applicable) after the Effective Date (and if applicable, in accordance with any FCC requirements) and, if such filings are made prior to the Effective Date, their grant shall not be a condition to Consummation. After the filing of the FCC Interim Long Form Application(s), any person who thereafter acquires a DIP Claim, a First Lien Claim, or a Second Lien Notes Claim may be issued Special Warrants in lieu of any New Common Stock that would otherwise be issued to such Person under the Plan to the extent that the issuance of New Common Stock would be inconsistent with the Communications Laws

46

and/or the FCC Interim Long Form Approval. In addition, the Debtors may, with the consent of the Required Consenting First Lien Lenders and the Required Consenting Second Lien Lenders, request that the Bankruptcy Court implement restrictions on trading of Claims and Equity Interests that might adversely affect the FCC Approval Process. The Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall diligently prosecute the FCC Applications, including the Petition for Declaratory Ruling, that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors file, and shall promptly provide such additional documents or information requested by the FCC in connection with its review of the foregoing.

ARTICLE VI.

TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

On the Effective Date, all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases of the Debtors will be assumed by the Debtors in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except for those Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that, in each case:

(i) have been assumed or rejected by the Debtors by prior order of the Bankruptcy Court;

(ii) are the subject of a motion to reject filed by the Debtors pending on the Effective Date;

(iii) are identified as rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by the Debtors on the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be Filed in the Plan Supplement, which may be amended by the Debtors up to and through the Effective Date to add or remove Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by filing with the Bankruptcy Court a subsequent Plan Supplement and serving it on the affected non-Debtor contract parties; or

(iv) are rejected or terminated pursuant to the terms of this Plan.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Specified Contracts are assumed pursuant to this provision to the extent not subject to a separate motion to assume.

Without amending or altering any prior order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumption or rejection of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such assumptions and the rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases set forth in the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date.

To the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned (as applicable) pursuant to this Plan or any prior order of the Bankruptcy Court (including, without limitation, any “change of control” provision) prohibits, restricts or conditions, or purports to prohibit, restrict or condition, or is modified, breached or terminated, or deemed modified, breached or terminated by, (a) the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases or

47

the insolvency or financial condition of any Debtor at any time before the closing of its respective Chapter 11 Case, (b) any Debtor’s or any Reorganized Debtor’s assumption or assumption and assignment (as applicable) of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or (c) the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan, then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by this Plan shall not entitle the non-debtor party thereto to modify or terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights or remedies with respect thereto, and any required consent under any such contract or lease shall be deemed satisfied by the Confirmation of this Plan.

Each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumed and/or assigned pursuant to this Plan shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor or the applicable assignee in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as modified by the provisions of this Plan, any order of the Bankruptcy Court approving its assumption and/or assignment, or applicable law.

The inclusion or exclusion of a contract or lease on any schedule or exhibit shall not constitute an admission by any Debtor that such contract or lease is an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Debtor has any liability thereunder.

Any monetary defaults under each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease to be assumed pursuant to this Plan shall be satisfied, pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by payment of the default amount in Cash on the Effective Date or on such other terms as the parties to such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases may otherwise agree. In the event of a dispute regarding: (a) the amount of any Cure Claim; (b) the ability of the Reorganized Debtors to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), if applicable, under the Executory Contract or the Unexpired Lease to be assumed; or (c) any other matter pertaining to assumption, the Cure Claims shall be paid following the entry of a Final Order resolving the dispute and approving the assumption of such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases; provided, that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may settle any dispute regarding the amount of any Cure Claim without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

All proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases, pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation Order, if any, must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within twenty-one (21) days after service of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order) approving such rejection. Any Claim arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that becomes an Allowed Claim is classified and shall be treated as a Class 6 General Unsecured Claim.

Any Person or Entity that is required to File a proof of Claim arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or an Unexpired Lease that fails to timely do so shall be forever barred, estopped and enjoined from asserting such Claim, and such Claim shall not be enforceable, against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Estates, and the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors

48

and their Estates and their respective assets and property shall be forever discharged from any and all indebtedness and liability with respect to such Claim unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise provided herein. All such Claims shall, as of the Effective Date, be subject to the permanent injunction set forth in Article X.F hereof.

On the Effective Date, each D&O Liability Insurance Policy shall be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that is and will be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed, and all Claims arising from the D&O Liability Insurance Policies will survive the Effective Date and be Unimpaired. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors shall maintain and continue in full force and effect the D&O Liability Insurance Policies for the benefit of the insured Persons for the full term of such policies, and all insured Persons, including without limitation, any members, managers, directors, and officers of the Reorganized Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date or any other individuals covered by such D&O Liability Insurance Policies, shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policies for the full term of such policies regardless of whether such insured Persons remain in such positions after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, nothing in this Plan or the Confirmation Order alters the terms and conditions of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. Confirmation and Consummation of this Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors under the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. For the avoidance of doubt, the D&O Liability Insurance Policies shall continue to apply with respect to actions, or failures to act, that occurred on or prior to the Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies.

The Debtors are further authorized to take such actions, and to execute and deliver such documents, as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to implement, maintain, cause the binding of, satisfy any terms or conditions of, or otherwise secure for the insureds the benefits of the D&O Tail, without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court or approval or consent of any Person or Entity.

On the Effective Date, all Indemnification Provisions shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts that are and shall be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed, and all Claims arising from the Indemnification Provisions shall survive the Effective Date and be Unimpaired. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Indemnification Provisions. Confirmation and Consummation

49

of this Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable parties under the Indemnification Provisions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnification Provisions shall continue to apply with respect to actions, or failures to act, that occurred on or prior to the Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Indemnification Provisions.

The Specified Employee Plans shall be deemed to be and treated as Executory Contracts under this Plan and on the Effective Date, in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement, shall be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed; provided that severance payments to any “insider” (as defined in section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code) of the Debtors terminated during the Chapter 11 Cases shall be subject to sections 503(c)(2) and 502(b)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, to the extent each section is applicable; provided, further, that notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, all employee equity incentive plans of the Debtors in effect prior to the Effective Date shall be canceled on the Effective Date.

After the Effective Date, the New Board shall, in its discretion, implement employee incentive or bonus plans as and when it deems appropriate in accordance with the terms of any applicable New Governance Document; provided that the Management Incentive Plan shall be implemented pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Plan, including Article V.I hereof. Within 120 days of the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall negotiate and enter into amendments solely to supplement the Specified Employment Agreements with respect to equity grants under the Management Incentive Plan. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Specified Employee Plans. Confirmation and Consummation of this Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors under the Specified Employee Plans.

On the Effective Date, each Insurance Contract shall be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that is and shall be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Insurance Contracts. Confirmation and Consummation of this Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors or any insurer under the Insurance Contracts.

50

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Article VI of this Plan, in the event of a dispute as to whether a contract is executory or a lease is unexpired, the right of the Reorganized Debtors to move to assume or reject such contract or lease shall be extended until the date that is ten (10) days after entry of a Final Order by the Bankruptcy Court determining that the contract is executory or the lease is unexpired. The deemed assumption provided for in Article VI.A of this Plan shall not apply to any such contract or lease, and any such contract or lease shall be assumed or rejected only upon motion of the Reorganized Debtors following the Bankruptcy Court’s determination that the contract is executory or the lease is unexpired.

Unless otherwise provided in this Plan, each Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that is assumed by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements that in any manner affect such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, and all rights related thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any other interests, unless any of the foregoing has been previously rejected or repudiated or is rejected or repudiated hereunder. Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith.

Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor may be performed by the applicable Debtor or Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of business without further approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Nothing contained in the Plan or the Plan Supplement shall constitute an admission by the Debtors or any other party that any contract or lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have forty-five (45) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

ARTICLE VII.

PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS

Except as otherwise provided in the “Treatment” sections in Article III hereof, initial distributions to be made on account of Claims that are Allowed Claims as of the Effective Date shall be made on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as is practicable. Any payment or distribution required to be made under this Plan on a day other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. Distributions on account of Disputed Claims that first become Allowed Claims after the Effective Date shall be made pursuant to Article VIII hereof.

51

Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan, the DIP Orders, the Confirmation Order or Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, or required by applicable bankruptcy law (including, without limitation, as required pursuant to section 506(b) or section 511 of the Bankruptcy Code), postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Claims and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim.

Other than as specifically set forth below or as otherwise provided in this Plan, the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable Distribution Agent shall make, or facilitate the making of, as applicable, all distributions required to be distributed under this Plan. The Reorganized Debtors may employ or contract with other Entities to assist in or make the distributions required by this Plan and may pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such Entities and the Distribution Agents in the ordinary course of business. No Distribution Agent shall be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court.

The Distribution Agent shall be empowered to (a) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments and other documents necessary to perform its duties under this Plan, (b) make all distributions contemplated hereby, (c) empower professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities and (d) exercise such other powers as are necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.

Distributions on account of the Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed Postpetition Securitization Program Claims, Allowed First Lien Claims, and Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims shall be made to (or in coordination with) the DIP Agent, the Securitization Program Agent, the First Lien Agent, or the Second Lien Indenture Trustee, as applicable, and such agent will be, and shall act as, the Distribution Agent with respect to the applicable Claims in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable loan documents. All distributions to Holders of Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed Postpetition Securitization Program Claims, Allowed First Lien Claims, and Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims shall be deemed completed when made by the Reorganized Debtors to (or at the direction or consent of) the DIP Agent, the Securitization Program Agent, the First Lien Agent, or the Second Lien Indenture Trustee, as applicable.

The amount of any reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by any Distribution Agent in connection with distributions required to be distributed under this Plan, including any reasonable and documented compensation and expense reimbursement claims (including reasonable and documented attorney fees and expenses), whether incurred prior to, on or after the Effective Date, shall be paid in Cash by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and as of the date of such completion, the duties of the DIP Agent, the Securitization Program Agent, the First Lien Agent, or the Second Lien Indenture Trustee, as applicable, with respect to such distributions shall be deemed satisfied and discharged.

52

For the avoidance of doubt, if and to the extent the Second Lien Indenture Trustee serves as the Distribution Agent with respect to the Second Lien Notes Claims, (i) the Second Lien Indenture Trustee shall incur no liability and be held harmless by the Reorganized Debtors, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (ii) Distribution Agent shall be deemed to be an additional capacity of the Second Lien Indenture Trustee under the applicable Second Lien Notes Documents entitling it to all rights, privileges, benefits, immunities, and protections provided under such documents.

1. Effective Date for Distributions

On the Distribution Record Date, the Claims Register shall be closed. Accordingly, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable Distribution Agent will have no obligation to recognize the assignment, transfer or other disposition of, or the sale of any participation in, any Allowed Claim, other than one based on a publicly traded security, that occurs after the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, and will be entitled for all purposes herein to recognize and distribute securities, property, notices and other documents only to those Holders of Allowed Claims who are Holders of such Claims, or participants therein, as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. The Reorganized Debtors or other applicable Distribution Agent shall be entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes under this Plan with only those record holders stated on the Claims Register, or their books and records, as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Distribution Record Date shall not apply to any publicly traded security.

2. Delivery of Distributions in General

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable Distribution Agent, as applicable, shall make distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims, or in care of their authorized agents, as appropriate, at the address for each such Holder or agent as indicated on the Debtors’ or other applicable Distribution Agent’s books and records as of the date of any such distribution; provided that the manner of such distributions shall be determined in the discretion of the applicable Distribution Agent; provided, further, that the address for each Holder of an Allowed Claim shall be deemed to be the address set forth in the latest proof of Claim, if any, Filed by such Holder pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3001 as of the Distribution Record Date.

3. Minimum Distributions

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Distribution Agent shall be required to make distributions or payments of less than $25.00 (whether in Cash or otherwise) or to make partial distributions or payments of fractions of dollars or Plan Securities, in each case with respect to Impaired Claims. With respect to Impaired Claims, whenever any payment or distribution of a fraction of a dollar or a fraction of a share of Plan Securities under this Plan would otherwise be called for, the actual payment or distribution will reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole dollar or share of Plan Securities (up or down), with half dollars and half shares of Plan Securities or more being rounded up to the next higher whole number and with less than half

53

dollars and half shares of Plan Securities being rounded down to the next lower whole number (and no Cash shall be distributed in lieu of such fractional Plan Securities). The total number of Plan Securities to be distributed on account of Allowed Claims will be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided for herein. No consideration will be provided in lieu of fractional shares that are rounded down. Neither the Reorganized Debtors nor the Distribution Agent shall have any obligation to make a distribution that is less than one (1) share of a Plan Security.

No Distribution Agent shall have any obligation to make a distribution on account of an Allowed Claim that is Impaired under this Plan if the amount to be distributed to the specific Holder of an Allowed Claim on the Effective Date does not constitute a final distribution to such Holder and is or has an economic value less than $25.00, which shall be treated as an undeliverable distribution under Article VII.D.4 below.

4. Undeliverable Distributions

(a) Holding of Certain Undeliverable Distributions

If the distribution to any Holder of an Allowed Claim is returned to the Distribution Agent as undeliverable or is otherwise unclaimed, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Distribution Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then current address in accordance with the time frames described in Article VII.D.4(b) hereof, at which time (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter) all currently due but missed distributions shall be made to such Holder. Undeliverable distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors or in the applicable reserve, subject to Article VII.D.4(b) hereof, until such time as any such distributions become deliverable. Undeliverable distributions shall not be entitled to any additional interest, dividends or other accruals of any kind on account of their distribution being undeliverable.

(b) Failure to Claim Undeliverable Distributions

Any Holder of an Allowed Claim (or any successor or assignee or other Person or Entity claiming by, through, or on behalf of, such Holder) that does not assert a right pursuant to this Plan for an undeliverable or unclaimed distribution within ninety (90) days after the later of the Effective Date or the date such distribution is due shall be deemed to have forfeited its rights for such undeliverable or unclaimed distribution and shall be forever barred and enjoined from asserting any such rights for an undeliverable or unclaimed distribution against the Debtors or their Estates, the Reorganized Debtors or their respective assets or property, or any Distribution Agent. In such case, any Cash, Plan Securities, or other property reserved for distribution on account of such Claim shall become the property of the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of any Claims or other rights of such Holder with respect thereto and notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Any such Cash, Plan Securities, and/or other property, as applicable, shall thereafter be distributed or allocated in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan shall require the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or any Distribution Agent to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim.

54

(c) Failure to Present Checks

Checks issued by the Distribution Agent on account of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not negotiated within ninety (90) days after the issuance of such check. Requests for reissuance of any check shall be made directly to the Distribution Agent by the Holder of the relevant Allowed Claim with respect to which such check originally was issued. Any Holder of an Allowed Claim holding an un-negotiated check that does not request reissuance of such un-negotiated check within ninety (90) days after the date of mailing or other delivery of such check shall have its rights for such un-negotiated check discharged and be forever barred, estopped and enjoined from asserting any such right against the Debtors, their Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective assets or property. In such case, any Cash held for payment on account of such Claims shall become the property of the Reorganized Debtors, free and clear of any Claims or other rights of such Holder with respect thereto and notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Any such Cash shall thereafter be distributed or allocated in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of this Plan.

In connection with this Plan and all distributions hereunder, the Reorganized Debtors and any other applicable Distribution Agent (including for purposes of this Article VII.E, the Debtors) shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed on them by any federal, state, local, or foreign Governmental Unit, and all distributions hereunder and under all related agreements shall be subject to any such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors and any other applicable Distribution Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such applicable withholding and reporting requirements, including (i) withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions and (ii) in the case of a non-Cash distribution that is subject to withholding, withholding an appropriate portion of such property and either liquidating such withheld property to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes (or reimburse the distributing party for any advance payment of the withholding tax) or pay the withholding tax using its own funds and retain such withheld property. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, upon the request of the Reorganized Debtors or any other applicable Distribution Agent, all Persons and Entities holding Claims shall be required to provide any information necessary to effect information reporting and the withholding of such taxes, and each Holder of an Allowed Claim will have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution. Any amounts withheld or reallocated pursuant to this Article VII.E shall be treated as if distributed to the Holder of the Allowed Claim.

Any Person or Entity entitled to receive any property as an issuance or distribution under this Plan shall, upon request, deliver to the applicable Reorganized Debtor or other applicable Distribution Agent, or such other Person designated by the Reorganized Debtor or the Distribution Agent, an IRS Form W-9 or, if the payee is a foreign Person or Entity, an applicable IRS Form W- 8, or any other forms or documents reasonably requested by a Reorganized Debtor or Distribution Agent to reduce or eliminate any withholding required by any Governmental Unit.

55

To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under this Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law (as reasonably determined by the Reorganized Debtors), be allocated for income tax purposes to the principal amount of the Claim first and then, to the extent that the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to the portion of such Claim representing accrued but unpaid interest.

Payments of Cash made pursuant to this Plan shall be in U.S. dollars and shall be made, at the option of the applicable Distribution Agent, by checks drawn on, or wire transfer from, a domestic bank selected by such Distribution Agent. Cash payments to foreign creditors may be made, at the option of such Distribution Agent, in such funds and by such means as are necessary or customary in a particular foreign jurisdiction.

Except as otherwise provided in the “Treatment” sections in Article III hereof or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, each Holder of an Allowed Claim shall receive the full amount of the distributions that this Plan provides for Allowed Claims in the applicable Class. If and to the extent that there are Disputed Claims, distributions on account of any such Disputed Claims shall be made pursuant to the provisions set forth in the applicable class treatment or in Article VIII hereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, Holders of Claims shall not be entitled to interest, dividends or accruals on the distributions provided for herein, regardless of whether such distributions are delivered on or at any time after the Effective Date.

1. Claims Paid by Third Parties

A Claim shall be correspondingly reduced, and the applicable portion of such Claim shall be disallowed without an objection to such Claim having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives a payment on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor. To the extent a Holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within fourteen days of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the Reorganized Debtors to the extent the Holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the Plan exceeds the amount of such Claim as of the date of any such distribution under the Plan. The failure of such Holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the Holder owing the Reorganized Debtors annualized interest at the Federal Judgment Rate on such amount owed for each Business Day after the fourteen-day grace period specified above until the amount is repaid.

56

2. Claims Payable by Insurance Carriers

No distributions under the Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Debtors’ insurance policies until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy in full or in part a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claim objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

3. Applicability of Insurance Policies

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a release, settlement, satisfaction, compromise, or waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or any other Entity may hold against any other Entity, including insurers, under any policies of insurance or applicable indemnity, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses, held by such insurers.

ARTICLE VIII.

PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING CONTINGENT,

UNLIQUIDATED AND DISPUTED CLAIMS

1. Allowance of Claims

After the Effective Date, and except as otherwise provided in this Plan, the Reorganized Debtors shall have and shall retain any and all available rights and defenses that the Debtors had with respect to any Claim, including, without limitation, the right to assert any objection to Claims based on the limitations imposed by section 502 or section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may contest the amount and validity of any Disputed or contingent or unliquidated Claim in the ordinary course of business in the manner and venue in which such Claim would have been determined, resolved or adjudicated if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced.

2. Disallowance of Certain Claims

Any Holders of Claims disallowed pursuant to section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless and until expressly Allowed pursuant to this Plan, shall not receive any distributions on account of such Claims until such time as such Causes of Action against that Holder have been settled or a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court with respect thereto has been entered and all sums due, if any, to the Debtors by that Holder have been turned over or paid to the Reorganized Debtors.

57

3. Prosecution of Objections to Claims

After Confirmation but before the Effective Date, the Debtors (in consultation with the Required Consenting First Lien Lenders and the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders), and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, in each case, shall have the authority to File objections to Claims (other than Claims that are Allowed under this Plan) and settle, compromise, withdraw or litigate to judgment objections to any and all such Claims, regardless of whether such Claims are in an Unimpaired Class or otherwise; provided that this provision shall not apply to Professional Fee Claims, which may be objected to by any party-in-interest in these Chapter 11 Cases. From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Reorganized Debtors shall have the sole authority to administer and adjust the Claims Register and their respective books and records to reflect any such settlements or compromises without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

4. Claims Estimation

After Confirmation but before the Effective Date, the Debtors (in consultation with the Required Consenting First Lien Lenders and the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders), and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Disputed Claim or contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to applicable law, including, without limitation, section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1334 to estimate any such Claim, whether for allowance or to determine the maximum amount of such Claim, including during the litigation concerning any objection to any Claim or during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. All of the aforementioned Claims objection, estimation and resolution procedures are cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The rights and objections of all parties are reserved in connection with any such estimation.

Notwithstanding section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, in no event shall any Holder of a Claim that has been estimated pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise be entitled to seek reconsideration of such estimation unless such Holder has Filed a motion requesting the right to seek such reconsideration on or before fourteen (14) calendar days after the date on which such Claim is estimated. All of the aforementioned Claims and objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are cumulative and not exclusive of one another.

5. No Filings of Proofs of Claim

Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, Holders of Claims will not be required to File a proof of Claim, and except as provided in this Plan, no parties should File a proof of Claim. The Debtors do not intend to object in the Bankruptcy Court to the allowance of Claims Filed; provided that the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to object to any Claim that is entitled, or deemed to be entitled, to a distribution under this Plan or is rendered Unimpaired under this Plan. Instead, the Debtors intend to make distributions, as required by this Plan, in accordance with the books and records of the Debtors. Unless disputed by a Holder of a Claim, the amount set forth in the books and records of the Debtors will constitute the amount of

58

the Allowed Claim of such Holder. If any such Holder of a Claim disagrees with the Debtors’ books and records with respect to the Allowed amount of such Holder’s Claim, such Holder must so advise the Debtors in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of any distribution on account of such Holder’s Claim, in which event the Claim will become a Disputed Claim. The Debtors intend to attempt to resolve any such disputes consensually or through judicial means outside the Bankruptcy Court. Nevertheless, the Debtors may, in their discretion, File with the Bankruptcy Court (or any other court of competent jurisdiction) an objection to the allowance of any Claim or any other appropriate motion or adversary proceeding with respect thereto. All such objections will be litigated to Final Order; provided that the Debtors may compromise, settle, withdraw, or resolve by any other method approved by the Bankruptcy Court any objections to Claims.

Any Claim that has been paid or satisfied, or any Claim that has been amended or superseded, may be adjusted on the Claims register by the Reorganized Debtors without a claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

If an objection to a Claim is Filed, no payment or distribution provided under the Plan shall be made on account of such Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

The Reorganized Debtors or other applicable Distribution Agent shall make distributions on account of any Disputed Claim that has become Allowed after the Effective Date at such time that such Claim becomes Allowed (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter). Such distributions will be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Article VII of this Plan.

Unless otherwise specifically provided for herein, in the DIP Orders, or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim or right. Additionally, and without limiting the foregoing, interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Disputed Claim with respect to the period from the Effective Date to the date a distribution is made on account of such Disputed Claim, if and when such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

59

ARTICLE X.

RELEASE, DISCHARGE, INJUNCTION AND RELATED PROVISIONS

Pursuant to sections 363 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 9019, and in consideration for the classification, distributions, releases and other benefits provided under this Plan, upon the Effective Date, the provisions of this Plan shall constitute a good faith compromise and settlement of all Claims and Equity Interests and controversies resolved pursuant to this Plan. The entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the compromise or settlement of all such Claims, Equity Interests and controversies, as well as a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that any such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, and any Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and is fair, equitable and reasonable.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the allowance, classification and treatment of all Allowed Claims and Allowed Equity Interests and their respective distributions (if any) and treatments hereunder, takes into account the relative priority and rights of the Claims and the Equity Interests in each Class in connection with any contractual, legal and equitable subordination rights relating thereto whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. As of the Effective Date, any and all contractual, legal and equitable subordination rights, whether arising under general principles of equitable subordination, section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, relating to the allowance, classification and treatment of all Allowed Claims and Allowed Equity Interests and their respective distributions (if any) and treatments hereunder, are settled, compromised, terminated and released pursuant hereto; provided that nothing contained herein shall preclude any Person or Entity from exercising their rights pursuant to and consistent with the terms of this Plan and the contracts, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents delivered under or in connection with this Plan.

Pursuant to section 1123(b) and any other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, effective as of the Effective Date, for good and valuable consideration provided by each of the Released Parties, the adequacy and sufficiency of which is hereby confirmed, the Debtor Releasing Parties shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever provided a full discharge, waiver and release to each of the Released Parties (and each such Released Party so released shall be deemed

62

forever released, waived and discharged by the Debtor Releasing Parties) and their respective assets and properties (the “Debtor Release”) from any and all Claims, Causes of Action, Litigation Claims, and any other debts, obligations, rights, suits, damages, actions, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, liquidated or unliquidated, whether directly or derivatively held, existing as of the Effective Date or thereafter arising, in law, at equity or otherwise, whether for tort, contract, violations of federal or state securities laws, or otherwise, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, or other occurrence or circumstances existing or taking place prior to or on the Effective Date arising from or related in any way in whole or in part to any of the Debtors or their Affiliates, including, without limitation, (a) the Chapter 11 Cases (including the filing thereof), the Disclosure Statement, this Plan (including the Plan Supplement), the Restructuring Support Agreement (and any annexes, exhibits, and term sheets attached thereto), the First Lien Credit Facility and First Lien Credit Documents, the Second Lien Notes and Second Lien Notes Documents, the Warrants Agreements, the DIP Facility and DIP Loan Documents, the Exit Term Loan Facility and Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents, the Prepetition Securitization Program and Prepetition Securitization Documents, the Postpetition Securitization Program and Postpetition Securitization Program Documents, the Exit Securitization Program and Exit Securitization Program Documents, the Plan Securities and any related documentation, the New Governance Documents, the FCC Approval Process, and any other Restructuring Documents, (b) the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Equity Interest that is treated in this Plan, (c) the business or contractual arrangements between any Debtor and any Released Parties, (d) the negotiation, formulation or preparation of the Disclosure Statement, this Plan (including the Plan Supplement), the Restructuring Support Agreement (and any annexes, exhibits, and term sheets attached thereto), the Warrants Agreements, the DIP Facility and DIP Loan Documents, the Exit Term Loan Facility and Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents, the Prepetition Securitization Program and Prepetition Securitization Documents, the Postpetition Securitization Program and Postpetition Securitization Program Documents, the Exit Securitization Program and Exit Securitization Program Documents, the Plan Securities and any related documentation, the New Governance Documents, the FCC Approval Process, and any other Restructuring Documents, or related agreements, instruments or other documents, (e) the restructuring of Claims or Equity Interests prior to or during the Chapter 11 Cases, (f) the purchase, sale, or rescission of the purchase or sale of any Equity Interest or Plan Securities of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and/or (g) the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan or the solicitation of votes on this Plan, that such Debtor Releasing Party would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively) or that any Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest or other Person or Entity would have been legally entitled to assert for, or on behalf or in the name of, any Debtor, its respective Estate or any Reorganized Debtor (whether directly or derivatively) against any of the Released Parties; provided that the foregoing provisions of this Debtor Release shall not operate to waive or release (a) the rights of such Debtor Releasing Party to enforce this Plan and the contracts, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents delivered under or in connection with this Plan (including, without limitation, the Exit Term Loan Facility and Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents and the Exit Securitization Program and Exit Securitization Program Documents) or assumed or assumed and assigned, as applicable, pursuant to this Plan or

2. Release By Third Parties.

The foregoing release shall be effective as of the Effective Date without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person or Entity and the Confirmation Order shall permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any Person or Entity, whether directly, derivatively or otherwise, of any claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, Causes of Action, or liabilities released pursuant to this Third Party Release.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Third Party Release, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained herein, and further, shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that the Third Party Release is: (a) consensual; (b) essential to confirmation of this Plan; (c) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties; (d) a good faith settlement and compromise of the Claims released by the Third Party Release; (e) in the best interest of the Debtors, their Estates, and all Holders of Claims and Equity Interests; (f) fair, equitable and reasonable; (g) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (h) a bar to any of the Releasing Parties asserting any claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Third Party Release.

Each of the Releasing Parties in each of the releases contained above expressly acknowledges that although ordinarily a general release may not extend to Claims which the Releasing Party does not know or suspect to exist in its favor, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the party released, they have carefully considered and taken into account in determining to enter into the above releases the possible existence of such unknown losses or claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Releasing Party expressly waives any and all rights conferred upon it by any statute or rule of law which provides that a release does not extend to claims which the claimant does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of providing the release, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement with the released party. The releases contained in this Plan are effective regardless of whether those released matters are presently known, unknown, suspected or unsuspected, foreseen or unforeseen.

To the fullest extent provided under section 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Plan (including, without limitation, Articles V.D and V.E of this Plan) or the Confirmation Order, effective as of the Effective Date, all consideration distributed under this Plan shall be in exchange for, and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge, and release of, all Claims, Equity Interests and Causes of Action of any kind or nature whatsoever against the Debtors or any of their respective assets or properties, including any interest accrued on such Claims or Equity Interests from and after the Petition Date, and regardless of whether any property shall have been distributed or retained pursuant to this Plan on account of such Claims, Equity Interests or Causes of Action.

Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Plan (including, without limitation, Articles V.D and V.E of this Plan) or the Confirmation Order, upon the Effective Date, the Debtors and their Estates shall be deemed discharged and released under and to the fullest extent provided under sections 524 and 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code from any and all Claims of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, demands and liabilities that arose before Confirmation, and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. Such discharge shall void any judgment obtained against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors at any time, to the extent that such judgment relates to a discharged Claim.

66

Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Plan (including, without limitation, Articles V.D and V.E of this Plan) or the Confirmation Order, upon the Effective Date: (a) the rights afforded herein and the treatment of all Claims and Equity Interests shall be in exchange for and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge, and release of all Claims and Equity Interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Petition Date, against the Debtors or any of their respective assets, property, or Estates; (b) all Claims and Equity Interests shall be satisfied, discharged, and released in full, and each Debtor’s liability with respect thereto shall be extinguished completely without further notice or action; and (c) all Entities shall be precluded from asserting against the Debtors, the Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, each of their respective successors and assigns, and each of their respective assets and properties, any such Claims or Equity Interests, whether based upon any documents, instruments or any act or omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date or otherwise.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan, from and after the Effective Date, no Exculpated Party shall have or incur, and each Exculpated Party is hereby released and exculpated from any Exculpated Claim, obligation, Cause of Action or liability for any Exculpated Claim, except for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or criminal conduct, and in all respects such Entities shall be entitled to reasonably rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to their duties and responsibilities pursuant to this Plan. The Exculpated Parties have acted in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code with regard to the solicitation and distribution of securities pursuant to this Plan and, therefore, are not, and on account of such distributions will not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of this Plan or such distributions made pursuant to this Plan, including the issuance of securities hereunder. The exculpation hereunder will be in addition to, and not in limitation of, all other releases, indemnities, exculpations, and any other applicable law or rules protecting such Exculpated Parties from liability.

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS PLAN OR THE CONFIRMATION ORDER, FROM AND AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE, ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES ARE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED UNDER SECTION 524 AND OTHER APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, PERMANENTLY ENJOINED FROM (A) COMMENCING OR CONTINUING, IN ANY MANNER OR IN ANY PLACE, ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING; (B) ENFORCING, ATTACHING, COLLECTING, OR RECOVERING IN ANY MANNER ANY JUDGMENT, AWARD, DECREE, OR ORDER; (C) CREATING, PERFECTING, OR ENFORCING ANY LIEN OR ENCUMBRANCE OF ANY KIND; (D) ASSERTING A SETOFF OR RIGHT OF SUBROGATION OR RECOUPMENT OF ANY KIND; OR (E) COMMENCING OR CONTINUING IN ANY MANNER ANY ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND, IN EACH CASE ON ACCOUNT OF OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, LIABILITY, OBLIGATION, DEBT, RIGHT, CAUSE OF ACTION, EQUITY INTEREST, OR REMEDY RELEASED OR TO BE

ALL INJUNCTIONS OR STAYS PROVIDED FOR IN THE CHAPTER 11 CASES UNDER SECTION 105 OR SECTION 362 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, OR OTHERWISE, AND IN EXISTENCE AT THE TIME OF CONFIRMATION, SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT UNTIL THE EFFECTIVE DATE.

NO PERSON OR ENTITY MAY COMMENCE OR PURSUE A CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION OF ANY KIND AGAINST THE DEBTORS, THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS, THE EXCULPATED PARTIES, OR THE RELEASED PARTIES THAT RELATES TO OR IS REASONABLY LIKELY TO RELATE TO ANY ACT OR OMISSION IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATING TO, OR ARISING OUT OF A CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION RELATED TO THE CHAPTER 11 CASES PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE, THE FORMULATION, PREPARATION, DISSEMINATION, NEGOTIATION, OR FILING OF THE RESTRUCTURING SUPPORT AGREEMENT, THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT, THIS PLAN, THE PLAN SUPPLEMENT, OR ANY TRANSACTION RELATED TO THE RESTRUCTURING, ANY CONTRACT, INSTRUMENT, RELEASE, OR OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT CREATED OR ENTERED INTO BEFORE OR DURING THE CHAPTER 11 CASES IN CONNECTION WITH THE RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTIONS, ANY PREFERENCE, FRAUDULENT TRANSFER, OR OTHER AVOIDANCE CLAIM ARISING PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 5 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW, THE FILING OF THE CHAPTER 11 CASES, THE PURSUIT OF CONFIRMATION, THE PURSUIT OF CONSUMMATION, THE ADMINISTRATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS PLAN, INCLUDING THE ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES PURSUANT TO THIS PLAN, OR THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROPERTY UNDER THIS PLAN OR ANY OTHER RELATED AGREEMENT, OR UPON ANY OTHER ACT OR OMISSION, TRANSACTION, AGREEMENT, EVENT, OR OTHER OCCURRENCE TAKING PLACE ON OR BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE RELATED OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY IS A RELEASING PARTY, WITHOUT THE BANKRUPTCY COURT (A) FIRST DETERMINING, AFTER NOTICE AND A HEARING, THAT SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION REPRESENTS A COLORABLE CLAIM OF ANY KIND AND (B) SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZING SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY TO BRING SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AGAINST ANY SUCH DEBTOR, REORGANIZED DEBTOR, EXCULPATED PARTY, OR RELEASED PARTY. THE BANKRUPTCY COURT WILL HAVE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO ADJUDICATE THE UNDERLYING COLORABLE CLAIM OR CAUSES OF ACTION. AT THE HEARING FOR THE BANKRUPTCY COURT TO DETERMINE WHETHER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION REPRESENTS A COLORABLE CLAIM OF ANY KIND, THE BANKRUPTCY COURT MAY, OR SHALL IF ANY DEBTOR, REORGANIZED DEBTOR, OR OTHER PARTY IN INTEREST REQUESTS BY MOTION (ORAL MOTION BEING SUFFICIENT), DIRECT THAT SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY SEEKING TO COMMENCE OR PURSUE SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION FILE

68

A PROPOSED COMPLAINT WITH THE BANKRUPTCY COURT EMBODYING SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION, SUCH COMPLAINT SATISFYING THE APPLICABLE FEDERAL RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, RULE 8 AND RULE 9 (AS APPLICABLE), WHICH THE BANKRUPTCY COURT SHALL ASSESS BEFORE MAKING A DETERMINATION.

Nothing in the Confirmation Order or this Plan shall effect a release of any claim by the United States Government or any of its agencies, including without limitation any claim arising under the Internal Revenue Code, the environmental laws or any criminal laws of the United States against any party or person, nor shall anything in the Confirmation Order or this Plan enjoin the United States from bringing any claim, suit, action, or other proceedings against any party or person for any liability of such persons whatsoever, including without limitation any claim, suit or action arising under the Internal Revenue Code, the environmental laws or any criminal laws of the United States against such persons, nor shall anything in the Confirmation Order or this Plan exculpate any party or person from any liability to the United States Government or any of its agencies, including any liabilities arising under the Internal Revenue Code, the environmental laws or any criminal laws of the United States against any party or person.

ON THE EFFECTIVE DATE, AND EFFECTIVE AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE, THIS PLAN SHALL BIND, AND SHALL BE DEEMED BINDING UPON, THE DEBTORS, THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS, ANY AND ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AGAINST AND EQUITY INTERESTS IN THE DEBTORS, ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES THAT ARE PARTIES TO OR ARE SUBJECT TO THE SETTLEMENTS, COMPROMISES, RELEASES, EXCULPATIONS, DISCHARGES, AND INJUNCTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS PLAN, EACH PERSON AND ENTITY ACQUIRING PROPERTY UNDER THIS PLAN, ANY AND ALL NON-DEBTOR PARTIES TO EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES WITH THE DEBTORS AND THE RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS OF EACH OF THE FOREGOING, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND NOTWITHSTANDING WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY (A) SHALL RECEIVE OR RETAIN ANY PROPERTY, OR INTEREST IN PROPERTY, UNDER THIS PLAN, (B) HAS FILED A PROOF OF CLAIM OR INTEREST IN THE CHAPTER 11 CASES OR (C) FAILED TO VOTE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THIS PLAN, AFFIRMATIVELY VOTED TO REJECT THIS PLAN OR IS CONCLUSIVELY PRESUMED TO REJECT THIS PLAN.

To the extent provided by section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution, all Persons and Entities, including Governmental Units, shall not discriminate against the Reorganized Debtors or deny, revoke, suspend or refuse to renew a license, permit, charter, franchise or other similar grant to, condition such a grant to, discriminate with respect to such a grant, against the Reorganized Debtors, or another Person or Entity with whom the Reorganized Debtors have been associated, solely because any Debtor has been a debtor under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, has been insolvent before the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases (or during the Chapter 11 Cases but before the Debtors are granted or denied a discharge) or has not paid a debt that is dischargeable in the Chapter 11 Cases.

69

Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, each Reorganized Debtor, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code (including section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code), applicable non-bankruptcy law, or as may be agreed to by the Holder of a Claim, may set off against any Allowed Claim (other than an Allowed Claim held by a Consenting Lender or a DIP Lender) and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim (before any distribution is made on account of such Allowed Claim), any claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature that such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim, to the extent such Claims, rights, or Causes of Action against such Holder have not been otherwise compromised or settled on or prior to the Effective Date (whether pursuant to the Plan or otherwise); provided that neither the failure to effect such a setoff nor the allowance of any Claim pursuant to the Plan shall constitute a waiver or release by such Reorganized Debtor of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor may possess against such Holder. In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to set off any such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable), unless such Holder has Filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the authority to perform such setoff on or before the Effective Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to recoup such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, unless such Holder actually has performed such recoupment and provided notice thereof in writing to the Debtors on or before Confirmation, notwithstanding any indication in any proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of recoupment.

Each of the provisions set forth in this Plan with respect to the settlement, release, discharge, exculpation, injunction, indemnification and insurance of, for or with respect to Claims and/or Causes of Action are an integral part of this Plan and essential to its implementation. Accordingly, each Entity that is a beneficiary of such provision shall have the right to independently seek to enforce such provision and such provision may not be amended, modified, or waived after the Effective Date without the prior written consent of such beneficiary.

The Reorganized Debtors shall pay the liabilities and charges that they incur on or after the Effective Date for Professionals’ fees, disbursements, expenses, or related support services (including reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by Professionals relating to the preparation of interim and final fee applications and obtaining Bankruptcy Court approval thereof) in the ordinary course of business and without application or notice to, or order of, the Bankruptcy Court, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses, and disbursements of the Distribution Agents and the fees, costs and expenses incurred by Professionals in connection with the implementation, enforcement and Consummation of this Plan and the Restructuring Documents.

In the event that a provision of the Restructuring Documents or the Disclosure Statement (including any and all exhibits and attachments thereto) conflicts with a provision of this Plan or the Confirmation Order, the provision of this Plan and the Confirmation Order (as applicable) shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict. In the event that a provision of this Plan conflicts with a provision of the Confirmation Order, the provision of the Confirmation Order shall govern and control to the extent of such conflict.

Effective as of the date hereof and subject to the limitations and rights contained in this Plan and the consent rights contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement (including the exhibits thereto): (a) the Debtors reserve the right, in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules, to amend or modify this Plan prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order in accordance with section 1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (b) after the entry of the Confirmation Order, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may, upon order of the Bankruptcy Court, amend or modify this Plan in accordance with section 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or to remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan in such manner as may be necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of this Plan. A Holder of a Claim that has accepted this Plan shall be deemed to have accepted this Plan, as altered, amended or modified, if the proposed alteration, amendment or modification does not materially and adversely change the treatment of the Claim of such Holder.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute (i) approval of all modifications to the Plan occurring after the solicitation of votes thereon pursuant to section 1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (ii) a finding that such modifications to the Plan do not require additional disclosure or re-solicitation under Bankruptcy Rule 3019.

73

Subject to the consent rights of the parties to the Restructuring Support Agreement set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement (including the exhibits thereto), the Debtors reserve the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan prior to the Effective Date with respect to any or all Debtors and to file subsequent chapter 11 plans. If the Debtors revoke or withdraw the Plan, or if Confirmation or the Effective Date does not occur, with respect to one or more of the Debtors, then with respect to such applicable Debtor or Debtors: (i) the Plan will be null and void in all respects; (ii) any settlement or compromise embodied in the Plan, assumption or rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases effectuated by the Plan, and any document or agreement executed pursuant hereto will be null and void in all respects; and (iii) nothing contained in the Plan shall (a) constitute a waiver or release of any Claims, Equity Interests, or Causes of Action by any Entity, (b) prejudice in any manner the rights of any Debtor or any other Entity, or (c) constitute an admission, acknowledgement, offer, or undertaking of any sort by any Debtor or any other Entity.

This Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, all present and former Holders of Claims and Equity Interests, other parties-in-interest, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns. The rights, benefits, and obligations of any Person or Entity named or referred to in this Plan shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, any heir, executor, administrator, successor, or assign of such Person or Entity.

Except as expressly set forth herein, this Plan shall have no force or effect unless and until the Bankruptcy Court enters the Confirmation Order and this Plan is Consummated. Neither the filing of this Plan, any statement or provision contained herein, nor the taking of any action by the Debtors or any other Entity with respect to this Plan shall be or shall be deemed to be an admission or waiver of any rights of: (a) the Debtors with respect to the Holders of Claims or Equity Interests or other Entity; or (b) any Holder of a Claim or an Equity Interest or other Entity prior to the Effective Date.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, all Holders of Claims receiving distributions hereunder and all other Entities shall, from time to time, prepare, execute and deliver any agreements or documents and take any other actions as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions and intent of this Plan or the Confirmation Order.

74

If, prior to Confirmation, any term or provision of this Plan is determined by the Bankruptcy Court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court shall have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted. Notwithstanding any such holding, alteration or interpretation, the remainder of the terms and provisions of this Plan shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated by such holding, alteration, or interpretation. 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 foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

WHEREAS, on February 5, 2024, the Debtors filed their Notice of Filing of Plan Supplement for the Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization for Audacy, Inc. and its Affiliate Debtors under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, together with certain Plan Supplement Documents [Docket No. 216].

WHEREAS, on February 16, 2024, the Solicitation Agent filed the Declaration of Stephenie Kjontvedt of Epiq Corporate Restructuring, LLC Regarding the Solicitation and Tabulation of Ballots Cast on the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Plan [Docket No. 270] (the “Kjontvedt Declaration”), attesting to the results of the tabulation of all Ballots received by the Solicitation Agent from Holders of Class 4 First Lien Claims and Holders of Class 5 Second Lien Notes Claims.

WHEREAS, a hearing to consider the Debtors’ compliance with the Bankruptcy Code’s disclosure requirements and confirmation of the Plan was held before this Court on February 20, 2024 (the “Combined Hearing”).

6

NOW, THEREFORE, based upon this Court’s review of the Disclosure Statement, Plan, the Plan Supplement, the briefs, affidavits and declarations submitted in support of confirmation of the Plan, including, without limitation, (i) the Confirmation Brief, (ii) the Declaration of Heath C. Gray (FTI Consulting, Inc.) in Support of Confirmation of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Plan [Docket No. 272] (the “Gray Confirmation Declaration”), and (iii) the Declaration of William Evarts (PJT Partners, Inc.) in Support of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Plan [Docket No. 271] (the “Evarts Confirmation Declaration” and together with the Gray Confirmation Declaration, the “Confirmation Declarations”), and upon all of the evidence proffered or adduced at, and arguments of counsel made at the Combined Hearing, and upon the entire record of these Chapter 11 Cases, and after due deliberation thereon, THIS COURT HEREBY FINDS AND CONCLUDES THAT:

A. The findings and conclusions set forth herein and in the record of 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, as made applicable herein by 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 any of the following conclusions of law constitute findings of fact, they are adopted as such.

B. This Court has jurisdiction over the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to section 1334 of title 28 of the United States Code. Venue is proper before this Court pursuant to sections 1408 and 1409 of title 28 of the United States Code. Final approval of the Disclosure Statement and confirmation of the Plan are core proceedings pursuant to section 157(b)(2) of title 28 of the United States Code. This Court has jurisdiction to enter a final order determining that the Disclosure Statement and the Plan comply with all of the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and should be approved and confirmed, respectively.

7

C. The Debtors were and are eligible for relief under section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Debtors were and are proper plan proponents under section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

D. On the Petition Date, each of the above-captioned Debtors commenced a voluntary case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. By prior order of this Court, the Chapter 11 Cases have been consolidated for procedural purposes only and are being jointly administered pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015 [Docket No. 45]. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors have operated their businesses and managed their properties as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No official statutory committee, trustee or examiner has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases.

E. This Court takes judicial notice of the docket of the Chapter 11 Cases maintained by the clerk of this Court, including, without limitation, all pleadings and other documents filed and orders entered thereon. This Court also takes judicial notice of all hearing transcripts, evidence proffered or adduced and all arguments made at the hearings held before this Court during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases.

F. The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have met their burden of proving the applicable elements of sections 1129(a) and 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the evidence, which is the applicable evidentiary standard for confirmation of the Plan.

8

G. As evidenced by the Kjontvedt Certificate of Service and the Suarez Certificate of Service, due, timely, adequate and sufficient notice of the Disclosure Statement, the Plan, the Plan Supplement, the Combined Hearing, the opportunity to opt out of the Third Party Release, and other dates and deadlines described in the Solicitation Order, together with all deadlines for voting to accept or reject the Plan as well as objecting to the Disclosure Statement and the Plan, has been given in substantial compliance with this Court’s orders, all applicable Bankruptcy Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. All parties in interest had the opportunity to appear and be heard at the Combined Hearing, and no other or further notice is required.

H. The Debtors published the Combined Notice in USA Today, in substantial compliance with the Solicitation Order and Bankruptcy Rule 2002(l), as evidenced by the Verification of Publication [Docket No. 149].

I. Votes for acceptance and rejection of the Plan were solicited in good faith and in compliance with sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 3017 and 3018, all other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations. Specifically, the Disclosure Statement, the Plan, the Combined Notice, the Ballots and other materials constituting the solicitation materials approved by this Court in the Solicitation Order, were transmitted to and served on all Holders of Claims in the Voting Classes, and the solicitation materials (not including Ballots) were also provided to the key parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases, in compliance with section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the Solicitation Order. The Combined Notice and the Non-Voting Notice and Opt-Out Form were provided to non-Affiliate Holders or potential Holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Non-

9

Voting Classes. Such transmittal and service were adequate and sufficient, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. All procedures used to distribute the solicitation materials and other notices and documents described in the Solicitation Order were fair and conducted in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations. The period during which the Debtors solicited acceptances to the Plan was a reasonable and adequate period of time and the manner of such solicitation was an appropriate process for creditors to have made an informed decision to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

J. Each of the Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, and the Released Parties, and each of their respective Related Parties, have acted fairly, in “good faith” within the meaning of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in a manner consistent with the Disclosure Statement and in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations in connection with all of their respective activities relating to support and consummation of the Plan, including the negotiation, execution, delivery, and performance of the Restructuring Support Agreement, the solicitation and tabulation of votes on the Plan, the participation in the offer, issuance, sale or purchase of any security offered or sold under the Plan, and the activities described in section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable, and are entitled to the protections afforded by section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

K. Each of the Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, and the Released Parties, and each of their respective Related Parties, have acted in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including section 1125(g), with regard to the offering, issuance, and distribution of recoveries under the Plan and therefore are not, and on account of such distributions will not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or distributions made pursuant to the Plan, so long as such distributions are made consistent with and pursuant to the Plan.

10

L. The solicitation of votes on the Plan complied with the Solicitation Procedures (as defined in the Solicitation Motion), was appropriate and satisfactory based upon the circumstances of the Chapter 11 Cases, and was in compliance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, the Solicitation Order, and applicable non-bankruptcy law. To the extent that the Debtors’ prepetition solicitation was deemed to constitute an offer of new securities, such solicitation is exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable law requiring registration prior to the offering, issuance, distribution, or sale of securities to the maximum extent permitted by law, in accordance with, and pursuant to section 4(a)(2), Regulation D and/or Regulation S of the Securities Act, as applicable to any recipient deemed an offeree. Specifically, section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D of the Securities Act create an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act for transactions not involving a “public offering,” and Regulation S creates an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act for offerings deemed to be executed outside of the United States. 15 U.S.C. § 77d(a)(2); 17 C.F.R. § 230.501 et seq.; 17 C.F.R. § 230.901 et seq. The Debtors have complied with the requirements of section 4(a)(2), Regulation D and Regulation S of the Securities Act (as applicable), in order to address the scenario where the prepetition solicitation of acceptances would be deemed a private placement of securities. The prepetition solicitation was made only to those Holders of Class 4 First Lien Claims and Class 5 Second Lien Notes Claims who certified that they were (i) located inside the United States and were (a) “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. §§ 77a-77aa (as amended, the “Securities Act”)) or (b) an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act) or (ii) located outside the United States and were persons other than “U.S. persons” (as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act).

11

M. The Disclosure Statement (i) contains sufficient information of a kind necessary to satisfy the disclosure requirements of all applicable non-bankruptcy rules, laws, and regulations, including the Securities Act, and (ii) 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 Plan, and the transactions contemplated therein, and (iii) is hereby approved on a final basis in all respects.

N. Before the Combined Hearing, the Debtors filed the Kjontvedt Declaration, attesting to the results of the tabulation of all Ballots received by the Solicitation Agent from Holders of Class 4 First Lien Claims and Holders of Class 5 Second Lien Notes Claims. All procedures used to tabulate the Ballots were fair and conducted in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Solicitation Order, and all other applicable rules, laws and regulations.

O. As evidenced by the Kjontvedt Declaration, Class 4 First Lien Claims voted unanimously to accept the Plan.

P. As evidenced by the Kjontvedt Declaration, Class 5 Second Lien Notes Claims voted unanimously to accept the Plan.

Q. The Plan is dated and identifies the Entities submitting it, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a). The filing of the Disclosure Statement with the clerk of this Court satisfied Bankruptcy Rule 3016(b). The injunction, release, and exculpation provisions in the Plan and Disclosure Statement describe, in bold font and with specific and conspicuous language, all acts to be enjoined and identify the Entities that will be subject to the injunction, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(c).

12

R. The Debtors have cured, or provided adequate assurance that the Reorganized Debtors will cure, defaults (if any) under or relating to each of the contracts and leases that are being assumed by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan. The Debtors also have provided adequate assurance of the Reorganized Debtors’ future performance under such contracts and leases.

S. The Debtors’ Valuation Analysis included as Exhibit F to the Disclosure Statement and the estimated enterprise value, as described therein, is reasonable, proposed in good faith, and supported by the Confirmation Declarations and the evidence presented at or prior to the Combined Hearing. All parties in interest have been given the opportunity to challenge the Valuation Analysis. The Valuation Analysis (i) is reasonable, persuasive, and credible as of the date such analysis was prepared, presented, or proffered, and (ii) uses reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions.

T. The classification of Claims and Equity Interests under the Plan is proper under the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to sections 1122(a) and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of the Plan provides for the separate classification of Claims and Equity Interests into ten Classes, based on differences in the legal nature or priority of such Claims and Equity Interests (other than Administrative Claims, Postpetition Securitization Program Claims, DIP Claims, Priority Tax

13

Claims, and statutory fees, which are addressed in Article II of the Plan and which have not been classified in accordance with section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code). Valid business, factual and legal reasons exist for the separate classification of the various Classes of Claims and Equity Interests created under the Plan, the classifications were not done for any improper purpose, and the creation of such Classes does not unfairly discriminate between or among Holders of Claims or Equity Interests. As required by section 1122(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, each Class of Claims and Equity Interests contains only Claims or Equity Interests that are substantially similar to the other Claims or Equity Interests within that Class.

U. In accordance with section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, this Court finds and concludes that the Plan: (a) designates Classes of Claims and Equity Interests, other than Claims of a kind specified in sections 507(a)(2) and 507(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) specifies Classes of Claims and Equity Interests that are not Impaired under the Plan; (c) specifies the treatment of Classes of Claims and Equity Interests that are Impaired under the Plan; (d) provides the same treatment for each Claim or Equity Interest of a particular Class, unless the Holder of a particular Claim or Equity Interest agrees to less favorable treatment of their respective Claim or Equity Interest; (e) provides for adequate means for the Plan’s implementation; (f) prohibits the issuance of non-voting securities to the extent required under section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (g) contains only provisions that are consistent with the interests of Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and with public policy with respect to the manner of selection of any officer or director of the Reorganized Debtors on and after the Effective Date. Therefore, the Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

14

V. The Plan contains various provisions that may be construed as discretionary but are not required for confirmation under the Bankruptcy Code. As set forth below, such discretionary provisions comply with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and are not inconsistent in any way with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

W. Pursuant to sections 1123(b)(1) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, respectively, Article III of the Plan impairs or leaves unimpaired, as the case may be, each Class of Claims and Equity Interests, and Article VI of the Plan provides for the assumption or rejection of the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases of the Debtors not previously assumed or rejected pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and appropriate authorizing orders of this Court.

X. Releases by the Debtors. The release of Claims and Causes of Action by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and each of their Related Parties, and their Estates described in Article X.B.1 of the Plan (the “Debtor Release”) is a necessary and important aspect of the Plan. The Debtor Release is based on sound business judgment, is in the best interests of the Debtors, the Estates, and all holders of Claims and Equity Interests, is fair, equitable, and reasonable, and is acceptable pursuant to the standards that courts in this district generally apply. Each Released Party played an integral role in the Chapter 11 Cases and made substantial concessions that underpin the consensual resolution reached in these Chapter 11 Cases and embodied in the Plan that will allow the Debtors to expeditiously exit bankruptcy and continue their operations, and/or may be unwilling to support the Plan without the Debtor Release. Additionally, the Plan, including the Debtor Release, was vigorously negotiated by sophisticated entities that were represented by able counsel and financial advisors.

15

Y. Exculpation. The Exculpation described in Article X.E of the Plan is appropriate under applicable law because it is part of a Plan, has been proposed in good faith, was vital to the Plan formulation process and is appropriately limited in scope. The Exculpation, including its carve-out for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or criminal conduct, is consistent with established practice in this jurisdiction.

Z. Releases by Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. The release of Claims and Causes of Action by Holders of Claims and Equity Interests described in Article X.B.2 of the Plan, including the release of non-Debtors (the “Third Party Release”), is an important aspect of the Plan. The Third Party Release is designed to provide finality for the Released Parties with respect to such parties’ respective obligations under the Plan. The Ballots and the Non-Voting Notice and Opt-Out Form were served by the Solicitation Agent on behalf of the Debtors as described in the Kjontvedt Certificate of Service and the Suarez Certificate of Service. The Ballots and the Non-Voting Notice and Opt-Out Form clearly direct Holders of Claims or Equity Interests to Article X of the Plan for further information about the Third Party Release and how to opt-out of the voluntary Third Party Release. Thus, Holders of Claims or Equity Interests were given due and adequate notice that they would be consenting to the Third Party Release by choosing not to opt out of the Third Party Release, as applicable. The Third Party Release is appropriate, important to the success of the Plan and consistent with established practice in this jurisdiction and others. The provisions of the Plan, including the Third Party Release, were vigorously negotiated prepetition, and the Debtors’ key stakeholders are unwilling to support the Plan without the Third Party Release.

16

AA. Further, the Third Party Release was provided in exchange for significant consideration. First, the Ad Hoc First Lien Group and Ad Hoc Second Lien Group engaged with the Debtors in good faith, and spent significant time and effort negotiating the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Plan. Members of the Ad Hoc First Lien Group agreed to enter into the DIP Credit Agreement with the Debtors and Exit Term Loan Facility with the Reorganized Debtors, both of which they were not obligated to do, and which are critical to the Debtors’ successful reorganization. The Ad Hoc First Lien Group and Ad Hoc Second Lien Group further agreed to equitize the majority of their pre-petition claims in order to facilitate the Debtors’ emergence from chapter 11 and provide a framework for a consensual reorganization. Moreover, certain members of the Ad Hoc First Lien Group agreed to backstop the DIP Facility and the Exit Term Loan Facility, in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement and the Exit Term Loan Credit Agreement. And the Ad Hoc First Lien Group and Ad Hoc Second Lien Group both consented to the Debtors’ use of cash collateral and agreed to a Plan structure that avoids litigation that would have been extremely costly and disruptive to the Debtors’ Estates. With respect to Holders of Claims or Equity Interests that elected not to opt out of the Third Party Release, such parties agreed to the release of any and all of their claims against the Released Parties. Finally, the Debtors’ directors and officers, and their employees more broadly, spent countless hours on double-duty during this process, driving the Debtors’ smooth transition into chapter 11 and imminent emergence after a successful balance sheet restructuring. In short, the contributions, concessions, and efforts by the Released Parties in formulating the Plan and putting the Debtors on a path for success fully support approving the Third Party Release.

BB. Injunction. The injunction provision set forth in Article X.F of the Plan is necessary to preserve and enforce the release, exculpation and discharge provisions set forth in Article X of the Plan and is narrowly tailored to achieve that purpose.

17

CC. Each of the release, exculpation, discharge and injunction provisions set forth in the Plan: (a) is within the jurisdiction of this Court under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1334(a), 1334(b), and 1334(d); (b) is an essential means of implementing the Plan pursuant to section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) is an integral element of the transactions incorporated into the Plan; (d) confers material benefits on, and is in the best interests of, the Debtors, their Estates and the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests; (e) is important to the overall objectives of the Plan to finally resolve all Claims among or against the parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases with respect to the Debtors; and (f) is consistent with sections 105, 1123, 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The record of the Combined Hearing and the Chapter 11 Cases is sufficient to support the release, exculpation, third-party release, discharge and injunction provisions contained in Article X of the Plan.

DD. Preservation and Reservation of Causes of Action. Article V.Q of the Plan appropriately provides for the preservation by the Debtors of the Causes of Action in accordance with section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. The provisions regarding Causes of Action in the Plan are appropriate and are in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests.

EE. The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have complied with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules, including sections 1123, 1125, and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 3017, 3018 and 3019. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

18

FF. The Debtors have proposed the Plan in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law. In determining that the Plan has been proposed in good faith, this Court has examined the totality of the circumstances surrounding the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan itself and the process leading to its formulation. The good faith of each of the entities who negotiated the Plan is evident from the facts and records of the Chapter 11 Cases and the record of the Combined Hearing and other proceedings held in the Chapter 11 Cases. The Plan is the product of arm’s-length negotiations among the Debtors, the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, and the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group and their respective professionals. The Plan itself, and the process leading to its formulation, provide independent evidence of the good faith of the entities who negotiated the Plan, serve the public interest and assure fair treatment of Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. The Debtors, the Ad Hoc First Lien Group, and the Ad Hoc Second Lien Group negotiated the terms and provisions of the Plan with the legitimate and honest purposes of maximizing the value of the Debtors’ estates for the benefit of all stakeholders and of emerging from bankruptcy with a capital structure that will permit the Debtors to satisfy their obligations. Consistent with the overriding purpose of chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Chapter 11 Cases were filed, and the Plan was proposed, with the legitimate purpose of allowing the Debtors to reorganize and emerge from bankruptcy with a capital structure that will allow them to satisfy their obligations while maintaining sufficient liquidity and capital resources.

GG. Based on the record before this Court in the Chapter 11 Cases: (a) the Debtors; (b) the Consenting First Lien Lenders; (c) the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders; (d) the First Lien Agent; (e) the Second Lien Indenture Trustee; (f) the DIP Agent; (g) the DIP Lenders; (h) the DIP Backstop Parties; (i) the Exit Backstop Parties; (j) the Securitization Program Parties; (k) the Distribution Agents (l) the Solicitation Agent; and (m) all of the foregoing Entities’ Related Parties, as of or after the Petition Date have acted in good faith and will continue to act in good faith if they proceed to: (i) consummate the Plan and the agreements, including without limitation the agreements contained in the Plan Supplement (as may be amended or modified in accordance with the Plan and this Confirmation Order), settlements, transactions and transfers contemplated thereby; and (ii) take the actions approved, authorized and directed by this Confirmation Order.

19

Approval of Certain Payments as Reasonable.

HH. The procedures set forth in the Plan for this Court’s review and ultimate determination of the fees and expenses to be paid by the Debtors in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Chapter 11 Cases, satisfy the objectives of, and are in compliance with, section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

Management, Compensation of Insiders and Consistency of

Management Proposals with the Interests of Creditors and Public Policy.

II. Pursuant to section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have disclosed in advance of the Combined Hearing the process by which individuals who will serve on the New Board will be chosen. On the Effective Date, the New Board shall consist of seven (7) members as determined in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Debtors’ existing officers will remain as officers until the Effective Date and as contemplated by the Restructuring Support Agreement. No directors of the Reorganized Debtors shall have been affiliated with the Debtors prior to the Confirmation Date other than David Field, whose appointment was disclosed in the Restructuring Support Agreement. These appointments are consistent with public policy and the interests of creditors and future equity holders. After the Confirmation Date and before the Effective Date, the Debtors’ current directors, including its current independent directors and corresponding independent governance committee, will continue to serve on the Debtors’ board of directors. Accordingly, the Debtors have sufficiently satisfied the requirements of section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code.

20

JJ. In accordance with section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code, this Court finds and concludes that the Plan does not provide for any rate changes over which a governmental regulatory commission has jurisdiction. Therefore, section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is not applicable.

KK. The Liquidation Analysis included as Exhibit D to the Disclosure Statement and the other evidence related thereto that was proffered or adduced at or prior to the Combined Hearing: (a) are reasonable, persuasive and credible; (b) utilize reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions; (c) have not been controverted by other evidence; and (d) establish that, with respect to each Impaired Class, each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Equity Interest in such Class has voted to accept the Plan or will receive under the Plan on account of such Claim or Equity Interest property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount such Holder would receive if the Debtors were liquidated on the Effective Date under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Unimpaired Classes; Acceptance of the Plan by Each Voting Class.

LL. Classes 1, 2, 3 and 6 are composed of Unimpaired Claims and are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan under section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code.

MM. Classes 4 and 5 are composed of Impaired Claims that have voted to accept the Plan.

21

NN. Classes 7, 8, 9 and 10 are Classes of Impaired Claims and Equity Interests that are deemed to reject the Plan (together, and to the extent Impaired under the Plan, the “Deemed Rejecting Classes”). However, the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Class 8 – Intercompany Claims and Class 9 –Intercompany Interests are Affiliates of the Debtors; and, as described further below, the Debtors can confirm the Plan over the deemed rejection of Class 7 510(b) Claims and Class 10 Existing Parent Equity Interests.

to Priority Pursuant to Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

OO. Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Postpetition Securitization Program Claims, Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims, and statutory fees are Unimpaired under Article II of the Plan. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such Claims have been satisfied.

PP. As set forth in the Kjontvedt Declaration, Classes 4 and 5 have voted to accept the Plan. As such, at least one Class of Claims that is Impaired under the Plan has accepted the Plan, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

QQ. The evidence proffered or adduced at, or prior to, the Combined Hearing in connection with the feasibility of the Plan, including the Financial Projections included as Exhibit E to the Disclosure Statement, (i) is reasonable, persuasive and credible, (ii) establishes that the Plan is feasible and that there is a reasonable prospect of the Reorganized Debtors being able to meet their financial obligations under the Plan and in the ordinary course of business, and that Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors or any successor to the Reorganized Debtors under the Plan; and (iii) establishes that the Reorganized Debtors will have sufficient funds available to meet their obligations under the Plan. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

RR. The Plan provides that all fees due and payable pursuant to section 1930 of chapter 123 of the Judicial Code prior to the Effective Date shall be paid by the Debtors. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay any and all such fees when due and payable. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

SS. Section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code requires a plan to provide for retiree benefits at levels established pursuant to section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan does not propose to modify any retiree benefits and Article VI.F provides that the Specified Employee Plans shall be assumed. As a result, section 1114’s requirement that the Debtors “shall timely pay and shall not modify any retiree benefits” is satisfied and, therefore, section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code is satisfied.

Domestic Support Obligations; Unsecured Claims

Against Individual Debtors; Transfers by Nonprofit Organizations.

TT. None of the Debtors have domestic support obligations, are individuals or are nonprofit organizations. Therefore, sections 1129(a)(14), (15), and (16) of the Bankruptcy Code do not apply to the Chapter 11 Cases.

UU. The Plan has been accepted by the Voting Classes; however, it is deemed to be rejected by the Deemed Rejecting Classes.

23

VV. Pursuant to section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan may be confirmed despite the fact that the Deemed Rejecting Classes have not accepted the Plan because the Plan meets the “cramdown” requirements for confirmation under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Other than the requirement in section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Deemed Rejecting Classes, all of the requirements of section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code have been met. The Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to the Deemed Rejecting Classes. No Class of Claims or Equity Interests junior to the Deemed Rejecting Classes will receive or retain any property on account of their Claims or Equity Interests, and no Class of Claims or Equity Interests senior to the Deemed Rejecting Classes is receiving more than full payment on account of the Claims and Equity Interests in such Class. The Plan therefore is fair and equitable, does not discriminate unfairly with respect to any of these Classes, and complies with section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

WW. Other than the Plan (including any previous versions thereof), which Plan constitutes a separate chapter 11 plan for each of the Debtors, no other plan has been filed in the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(c) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

XX. No governmental unit has requested that this Court refuse to confirm the Plan on the grounds that the principal purpose of the Plan is the avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of section 5 of the Securities Act. As evidenced by its terms, the principal purpose of the Plan is not such avoidance. As a result thereof, the requirements of section 1129(d) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

24

YY. None of the Chapter 11 Cases are small business cases, as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code, and accordingly, section 1129(e) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable in the Chapter 11 Cases.

ZZ. Based upon the foregoing and all other pleadings and evidence proffered or adduced at or prior to the Combined Hearing, the Plan satisfies the requirements for confirmation set forth in section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

AAA. The Debtors have disclosed all material facts regarding: (a) the Restructuring Documents, (b) the adoption of the New Governance Documents, or similar constituent documents; (c) the process for selection of directors and officers for the Reorganized Debtors; (d) Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents; (e) the Exit Securitization Program Documents; (f) the Warrants Agreements; (g) the Plan Supplement Documents (including but not limited to the Equity Allocation Mechanism); (h) the distributions to be made in accordance with the Plan; (i) the terms, issuance, and distribution of the Plan Securities, which are duly authorized, and validly issued; (j) the adoption, execution and implementation of the other matters provided for under the Plan involving corporate action to be taken by or required of the Reorganized Debtors; and (k) the adoption, execution and delivery of all contracts, leases, instruments, releases, indentures and other agreements related to any of the foregoing.

25

BBB. All transfers of property of the Debtors, including, but not limited to, the issuance and distribution of the Plan Securities, shall be free and clear of all Liens, charges, Claims, encumbrances and other interests of creditors, except as expressly provided in the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Confirmation Order, or in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document entered into or delivered in connection with the Plan, pursuant to sections 1141(b) and (c) of the Bankruptcy Code, all property in each Estate, all Causes of Action (except those released by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan or otherwise) and any property acquired by any of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan (other than Claims or Causes of Action subject to the Debtor Release, the Professional Fee Escrow Account and any rejected Executory Contracts and/or Unexpired Leases) shall vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, free and clear of all Liens, Claims, charges or interests of creditors, other encumbrances, subject to the Restructuring Transactions and Liens that survive the occurrence of the Effective Date as described in Article III of the Plan. Such vesting does not constitute a voidable transfer under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law. Each distribution and issuance of Plan Securities under the Plan shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the instruments evidencing or relating to such distribution or issuance, which terms and conditions shall bind each Entity receiving such distribution or issuance.

CCC. All documents and agreements necessary to implement the Plan, including those contained in the Plan Supplement, have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s-length, and are in the best interests of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors and shall, upon completion of documentation and execution, be valid, binding and enforceable documents and agreements not in conflict with any federal or state law.

26

DDD. The Exit Term Loan Facility is an essential element of the Plan, necessary for confirmation and consummation of the Plan, and critical to the overall success and feasibility of the Plan. Entry into and consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Exit Term Loan Credit Documents are in the best interests of the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and are approved in all respects. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to enter into the Exit Term Loan Credit Documents and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of the Exit Term Loan Credit Documents. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of this Court, to execute and deliver all agreements, documents, instruments and certificates relating thereto and to perform their obligations thereunder, including, without limitation, obligations relating to the payment or reimbursement of any fees, expenses, losses, damages, or indemnities. The terms and conditions of the Exit Term Loan Credit Documents have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s-length, are fair and reasonable and are approved. The Exit Term Loan Credit Documents shall, upon execution, be valid, binding and enforceable and shall not be in conflict with any federal or state law. Entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of the Exit Term Loan Facility and all related documentation in accordance with the terms of the Plan and applicable Plan Supplement Documents.

EEE. Further, each of the Backstop Fee and the Commitment Fee (each as defined in the Exit Term Loan Credit Agreement) constitutes an actual and necessary cost and expense to preserve the Debtors’ estates and is reasonable and warranted on the terms set forth in the Plan and Plan Supplement Documents in light of, among other things, (i) the significant benefit to the Debtors’ estates of having committed exit financing on the Confirmation Date to facilitate the Debtors’ ability to pursue a cost-efficient pre-packaged Plan that funds Allowed General Unsecured Claims in full and maximizes the value of the estates, (ii) the substantial time, effort, and costs incurred by the Exit Backstop Parties in negotiating and documenting the Restructuring Support Agreement and the Plan, and (iii) the substantial benefit provided to the Debtors’ estates

27

by ensuring the funding of the Debtors’ exit from bankruptcy and the Reorganized Debtors’ post-Effective Date operations. Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date and the provision of the First-Out Exit Term Loans, the terms and conditions of the Backstop Fee and Commitment Fee are satisfied and earned as of the entry of this Confirmation Order. The amount of the Backstop Fee and the Commitment Fee are bargained-for and integral parts of the Restructuring Transactions contemplated under the Plan.

FFF. The Exit Securitization Program is an essential element of the Plan, necessary for confirmation and consummation of the Plan, and critical to the overall success and feasibility of the Plan. Entry into and consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Exit Securitization Program Documents are in the best interests of the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and are approved in all respects. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to enter into the Exit Securitization Program Documents and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of the Exit Securitization Program Documents. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of this Court, to execute and deliver all agreements, documents, instruments and certificates relating thereto and to perform their obligations thereunder, including, without limitation, obligations relating to the payment or reimbursement of any fees, expenses, losses, damages, or indemnities. The terms and conditions of the Exit Securitization Program Documents have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s-length, are fair and reasonable and are approved. The Exit Securitization Program Documents shall, upon execution, be valid, binding and enforceable and shall not be in conflict with any federal or state law.

28

GGG. The New Second Lien Warrants and Special Warrants are essential elements of the Plan, necessary for confirmation and consummation of the Plan, critical to the overall success and feasibility of the Plan, and, with respect to the Special Warrants, compliance with applicable law. Entry into the Special Warrants Agreement and the New Second Lien Warrants Agreement are in the best interests of the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and are approved in all respects. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to enter into the Warrants Agreements and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of the Warrants Agreements. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of this Court, to execute and deliver all agreements, documents, instruments and certificates relating thereto and to perform their obligations thereunder. The terms and conditions of the Warrants Agreements have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s-length, are fair and reasonable and are approved. The Warrants Agreements shall, upon the Effective Date, be valid, binding and enforceable and do not conflict with any federal or state law.

HHH. The filing and notice of the Plan Supplement (including any amendments, modifications or supplements thereto) were proper and in accordance with the Plan, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, all other applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. All documents included in the Plan Supplement are integral to, part of, and incorporated by reference into the Plan. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Debtors are authorized to alter, amend, update, modify, or supplement the Plan Supplement before the Effective Date and the Plan Supplement Documents as filed as of the Effective Date shall be expressly incorporated into the Plan and this Confirmation Order as binding on the Reorganized Debtors and all applicable parties in interest. All parties were provided due, adequate, and sufficient notice of the Plan Supplement, and the filing of any further supplements thereto will provide due, adequate, and sufficient notice thereof.

29

III. To the extent this Confirmation Order contains modifications to the Plan, such modifications were made to address technical or clarifying changes, objections and informal comments received from various parties in interest. All modifications to the Plan that have been made are consistent with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The disclosure of any Plan modifications prior to or on the record at the Combined Hearing constitutes due and sufficient notice of any and all Plan modifications. The Plan as modified shall constitute the Plan submitted for confirmation.

JJJ. All other documents and agreements necessary to implement the Plan, including, without limitation, those contained in the Plan Supplement, are in the best interests of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and Holders of Claims and Equity Interests and have been negotiated in good faith and at arm’s-length. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining to enter into all such documents and agreements and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of such documents and agreements. The terms and conditions of such documents and agreements are fair and reasonable and are approved. The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of this Court, to execute and deliver all such agreements, documents, instruments and certificates relating thereto and perform their obligations thereunder.

30

KKK. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining whether to assume or reject each of their Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases as set forth in Article VI of the Plan, the Plan Supplement, this Confirmation Order or otherwise. Each assumption or rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease in accordance with Article VI of the Plan, the Plan Supplement, this Confirmation Order or otherwise shall be legal, valid, and binding upon the applicable Debtor and all non-Debtor counterparties to such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, all to the same extent as if such assumption or rejection had been authorized and effectuated pursuant to a separate order of this Court that was entered pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code prior to Confirmation.

LLL. As of the occurrence of the Effective Date and after taking into account the transactions contemplated by the Plan: (a) the present fair value of the property of the Reorganized Debtors and the cash flow generated by such assets will be not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities on the Reorganized Debtors’ then-existing debts as they become absolute and matured; and (b) the Reorganized Debtors’ capital will not be unreasonably small in relation to their business or any contemplated or undertaken transaction.

MMM. The Debtors have disclosed all material facts regarding the Plan, and the adoption, execution, and implementation of the other matters provided for under the Plan involving corporate action to be taken by or required of the Debtors.

NNN. Each of the conditions precedent to the Effective Date, as set forth in Article IX.A of the Plan, has been or is reasonably likely to be satisfied or waived in accordance with Article IX.B of the Plan.

31

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:

1. Confirmation. The Plan and Plan Supplement (as such may be amended by this Confirmation Order or in accordance with the Plan, and which amendments are hereby incorporated into and constitute a part of the Plan) and each of the provisions thereof, as may be modified by this Confirmation Order, are confirmed in each and every respect pursuant to section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Confirmation Order approves the Plan Supplement, including the documents contained therein as may be amended through and including the Effective Date.

32

2. Disclosure Statement Approved. The Disclosure Statement (i) contains adequate information of a kind generally consistent with the disclosure requirements of all applicable non-bankruptcy law, including the Securities Act, (ii) contains “adequate information” (as such term is defined in section 1125(a)(1) and used in section 1126(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the Debtors, the Plan, and the transactions contemplated therein, and (iii) is approved in all respects on a final basis.

3. Objections.

4. Compromise of Controversies. For the reasons stated herein, the Plan constitutes a good faith, arm’s-length compromise and settlement of all Claims and Equity Interests and or controversies relating to the rights that a holder of a Claim or Equity Interest, or any assignees thereof, may have with respect to any Allowed Claim or Allowed Equity Interest or any distribution to be made or obligation to be incurred pursuant to the Plan, and the entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of all such compromises and settlements.

33

6. Appointment of Board of Directors of Reorganized Debtors. Upon the Effective Date, the New Board shall take office and replace the then-existing boards of directors or similar governing body of Reorganized Parent. All members of such existing board shall cease to hold office or have any authority on and after the Effective Date to the extent not expressly included in the roster of the New Board.

7. Effectuating Documents; Further Transactions. On and after the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors and the officers and members of the New Board are authorized to and may issue, execute, deliver, file or record such contracts, securities, instruments, releases and other agreements or documents and take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, implement and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan, the corporate actions and transactions contemplated under the Plan, and the securities issued pursuant to the Plan in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, without the need for any approvals, authorizations or consents except for those expressly required pursuant to the Plan, the Restructuring Support Agreement, or the New Governance Documents.

8. DIP Election Mechanism. The DIP-to-Exit Election Form attached as Exhibit 1-A to the Debtors’ Emergency Motion for Entry of an Order (I) Establishing Procedures for Compliance With FCC Media and Foreign Ownership Requirements and (II) Granting Related Relief [Docket No. 27-1] (the “FCC Procedures Order”), and the DIP-to-Exit Election procedures established therein (the “DIP Election Mechanism”) are essential components of the Debtors’ Plan, are fair and reasonable, and comply with the Bankruptcy Code. This Confirmation Order constitutes final approval of the DIP-to-Exit Election Form and the DIP Election Mechanism.

34

9. Entry of this Confirmation Order also constitutes final approval of the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution to be distributed to Electing DIP Lenders. The distribution on the Effective Date of the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution is fair and reasonable, complies with the Bankruptcy Code, and is an essential component of the Debtors’ Plan. The DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution constitutes an actual and necessary cost and expense to preserve the Debtors’ estates and is reasonable and warranted on the terms set forth in the Plan in light of, among other things, (i) the necessity to induce lenders to provide funding to the Debtors on a post-Effective Date basis; (ii) the significant benefit provided to the Debtors’ estates by the committed financing to fund the Debtors’ proposed chapter 11 plan after the Effective Date and (iii) the substantial benefit provided to the Debtors’ estates by the Electing DIP Lenders who are agreeing to equitize their secured DIP Claims to facilitate the Debtors’ exit from bankruptcy and convert those DIP Claims into Exit Term Loans to help fund the Reorganized Debtors’ post-Effective Date operations. As of the date of entry of this Confirmation Order, the terms and conditions of the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution have been fully satisfied by the Electing DIP Lenders, the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distributions have been fully earned, and the amount of the DIP-to-Exit Equity Distribution is a bargained for and integral part of the Restructuring Transactions contemplated under the Plan.

10. Equity Allocation Mechanism. The Equity Allocation Mechanism contained in the Plan Supplement (as the same may be amended or modified in accordance with the Plan) is an essential component of the Debtors’ Plan, is fair and reasonable, and complies with the Bankruptcy Code. Entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of the Equity Allocation Mechanism.

35

11. Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. The findings of fact and the conclusions of law stated in this Confirmation Order shall constitute findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052, made applicable to the proceeding by Bankruptcy Rule 9014.

12. Incorporation by Reference. The terms of the Plan, the Plan Supplement and the exhibits and schedules thereto are incorporated by reference into, and are an integral part of, this Confirmation Order. The terms of the Plan, the documents contained in the Plan Supplement, all exhibits thereto, and all other relevant and necessary documents, shall be effective and binding as of the Effective Date.

13. Plan Classifications Controlling. The classification of Claims and Equity Interests for purposes of distributions made under the Plan shall be governed solely by the terms of the Plan. The classifications set forth on the Ballots tendered to or returned by the creditors in connection with voting on the Plan (a) were set forth on the Ballots solely for purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan, (b) do not necessarily represent, and in no event shall be deemed to modify or otherwise affect, the actual classification of such Claims under the Plan for distribution purposes and (c) shall not be binding on the Debtors.

14. Cancellation of Securities and Agreements. On the Effective Date, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Confirmation Order: all notes, stock, instruments, certificates, credit agreements and other agreements and documents evidencing or relating to the First Lien Claims, the Second Lien Notes Claims, any Impaired Claim and/or the Existing Parent Equity Interests, shall be canceled and the obligations of (i) the Debtors thereunder

36

or in any way related thereto shall be fully released, terminated, extinguished and discharged, in each case without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or any requirement of further action, vote or other approval or authorization by any Person or Entity, and (ii) the Second Lien Indenture Trustee shall be discharged and its duties deemed satisfied except (to the extent applicable) with respect to such Second Lien Indenture Trustee serving as the Distribution Agent with respect to the applicable Second Lien Notes Claims; provided that the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents shall continue in effect for the limited purpose of allowing Holders of Claims thereunder to receive, and allowing and preserving the rights of the First Lien Agent, and the Second Lien Indenture Trustee or other applicable Distribution Agent thereunder to make (or cause to be made), distributions under the Plan. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the Plan and the Restructuring Documents, upon completion of all such distributions, the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents and any and all notes, securities and instruments issued in connection therewith shall terminate completely without further notice or action and be deemed surrendered. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph shall apply to or affect or impair the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents or the Exit Securitization Program Documents, which shall be in full force and effect as of and after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding Confirmation or the occurrence of the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan, only such provisions that, by their express terms, survive the termination or the satisfaction and discharge of the First Lien Credit Documents and the Second Lien Notes Documents, as applicable, shall survive the occurrence of the Effective Date, including the rights of the First Lien Agent and the Second Lien Indenture Trustee to assert, pursue and be paid with respect to any charging liens, expense reimbursement, indemnification, and similar amounts.

37

15. Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents. Entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of the First-Out Exit Term Loans and the Second-Out Exit Term Loans (including the transactions contemplated thereby, and all actions to be taken, undertakings to be made, and obligations to be incurred and fees paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith). Specifically, entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of the Backstop Fee and the Commitment Fee (each as defined in the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Agreement) payable to the Exit Backstop Parties in Cash on the Effective Date.

In addition to the Backstop Fee and the Commitment Fee that are approved upon entry of this Confirmation Order, on the Effective Date, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and authorized indebtedness and obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and such indebtedness and obligations shall not be, and shall not be deemed to be, enjoined or subject to discharge, impairment, release or avoidance under the Plan, this Confirmation Order or on account of the Confirmation or Consummation of the Plan.

39

17. On and as of the Effective Date, all Electing DIP Lenders and Holders of Allowed First Lien Claims shall be deemed to be parties to, and bound by, the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Agreement, without the need for execution thereof by any such Electing DIP Lender or Holder of an Allowed First Lien Claim.

18. Each Electing DIP Lender and First Lien Lender is deemed to have instructed and directed the Distribution Agent and the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent (as applicable), to (a) act as Distribution Agent to the extent required by the Plan, (b) execute and deliver the Exit Term Loan Facility Credit Documents (each to the extent it is a party thereto), as well as to execute, deliver, file, record and issue any notes, documents (including UCC financing statements), or agreements in connection therewith, to which the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent is a party and to promptly consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, and (c) take any other actions required or contemplated to be taken by the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent and/or the Distribution Agent (as applicable) under the Plan or any of the Restructuring Documents to which it is a party (whether to occur before, on, or after the Effective Date). The Distribution Agent and the Exit Term Loan Facility Agent (as applicable) shall make distributions of the Exit Term Loan Facility in accordance with the Plan and this Confirmation Order.

19. Exit Securitization Program Documents. On the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be authorized to execute and deliver, and to consummate the transactions contemplated by, the Exit Securitization Program Documents and without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person or Entity (other than as expressly required by the Exit Securitization Program Documents). On the Effective Date, the Exit Securitization Program Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and authorized indebtedness and obligations of the applicable Reorganized Debtors party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and such obligations shall not be, and shall not be deemed

40

to be, enjoined or subject to discharge, impairment, release or avoidance under the Plan, the Confirmation Order or on account of the Confirmation or Consummation of the Plan. Upon execution of the Exit Securitization Program Documents, all Liens and security interests granted by the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to, or in connection with, the Exit Securitization Program shall be valid, binding, perfected, enforceable Liens and security interests in the property subject to a security interest granted by the applicable Reorganized Debtors pursuant to the Exit Securitization Program, with the priorities established in respect thereof under applicable non-bankruptcy law.

20. Issuance and Distribution of Plan Securities. On and after the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized to and shall provide or issue the Plan Securities (including the issuance of New Common Stock upon exercise of the Special Warrants and/or New Second Lien Warrants and Class A New Common Stock upon conversion of Class B New Common Stock) and any and all other notes, stock, instruments, certificates, and other documents or agreements required to be distributed, issued, executed or delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Plan, in each case without further notice to or order of this Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Entity. The Plan Securities shall be issued and distributed pursuant to the Plan free and clear of all Liens, Claims and other Interests. Any person’s acceptance of the Plan Securities shall be deemed to constitute its agreement to be bound by the New Governance Documents, including but not limited to any shareholder agreement, limited liability company agreement or warrant agreement as the same may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms. The New Governance Documents shall be binding on all Entities receiving, and all Holders of, the Plan Securities (and their respective successors and assigns), whether such Plan Securities are received or to be received on or after the Effective Date and regardless of whether such Entity executes or delivers a signature page to any shareholder’s agreement, limited liability company agreement, warrant agreement or similar agreement constituting a New Governance Document.

41

21. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the New Governance Documents or required by applicable law, Reorganized Parent shall not be obligated to list the Plan Securities on any national securities exchange or to register the Plan Securities under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. The Debtors (with the consent of the Required Consenting Lenders) and Reorganized Debtors intend to take such reasonable actions in connection with the allocation of the New Common Stock or other Plan Securities to ensure that none of the Reorganized Debtors will be subject to any Reporting Obligations, and holders of Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed First Lien Claims and Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims shall use good faith efforts to cooperate with the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in such actions.

22. Vesting of Assets in the Reorganized Debtors Free and Clear of Liens and Claims. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, this Confirmation Order, or any Restructuring Document, pursuant to sections 1123(a)(5), 1123(b)(3), 1141(b) and (c) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, on and after the Effective Date, all property and assets of the Estates of the Debtors, all claims, rights, and Litigation Claims of the Debtors, and any other assets or property acquired by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases or under or in connection with the Plan (other than Claims or Causes of Action subject to the Debtor Release, the Professional Fee Escrow Account and any rejected Executory Contracts and/or Unexpired Leases), shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, and other encumbrances, subject to the Restructuring Transactions and Liens that survive the occurrence of the Effective Date as described in Article III of the Plan.

In accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except where such Causes of Action have been expressly released (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the Debtor Release provided in Article X.B and the Exculpation contained in Article X.E of the Plan), the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue, as appropriate, any and all Causes of Action, whether arising before or after the Petition Date, including, without limitation, any actions specifically identified in the Plan Supplement or the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action, and the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to commence, prosecute or settle such Causes of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date. The Reorganized Debtors, as the successors-in-interest to the Debtors and the Estates, may, and shall have the exclusive right to, enforce, sue on, settle, compromise, transfer or assign (or decline to do any of the foregoing) any or all of such Causes of Action without notice to or approval from this Court.

24. No Entity (other than the Consenting Lenders, the DIP Agent, the DIP Lenders, the DIP Backstop Parties, the Exit Backstop Parties, the Securitization Program Parties, the First Lien Agent, and the Second Lien Indenture Trustee) may rely on the absence of a specific reference in the Plan, the Plan Supplement (including the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action), or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action against it as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action of the Debtors against it. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity.

43

26. Automatic Stay. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, all injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Cases under sections 105 and 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the Effective Date, and at that time shall be dissolved and of no further force or effect, subject to the injunction set forth in Article X of the Plan and/or sections 524 and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon the Effective Date, the injunction provided in Article X of the Plan shall apply. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, nothing herein shall bar the filing of financing documents (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, security agreements, leases, mortgages, trust agreements and bills of sale) or the taking of such other actions as are necessary or appropriate to effectuate the transactions specifically contemplated by the Plan or by this Confirmation Order prior to the Effective Date.

27. Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. On the Effective Date, all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases of the Debtors will be assumed by the Debtors in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except for those Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that, in each case: (i) have been assumed or rejected by the Debtors by prior order of this Court; (ii) are the subject of a motion to reject filed by the Debtors pending on the Effective Date; (iii) are identified as

44

rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by the Debtors on the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be Filed in the Plan Supplement, which may be amended by the Debtors up to and through the Effective Date to add or remove Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases by filing with this Court a subsequent Plan Supplement and serving it on the affected non-Debtor contract parties; or (iv) are rejected or terminated pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

28. For the avoidance of doubt, that certain Services Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2019, by and among The Nielsen Company (US), LLC and Audacy Operations, Inc. and certain of its affiliates, as amended on December 31, 2021, and further amended on November 21, 2022, and further amended on November 30, 2023 (in addition to all other amendments entered into in writing prior to the Confirmation Date) (collectively, the “Nielsen Contracts”) are assumed pursuant to this Confirmation Order effective as of the Confirmation Date. The Debtors have complied with all obligations thereunder, and there are no defaults or cure costs associated with assumption of the Nielsen Contracts. The Debtors are authorized to perform all obligations under the Nielsen Contracts as of the Confirmation Date without further order of this Court.

45

30. Without amending or altering any prior order of this Court approving the assumption or rejection of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, this Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of this Court approving such assumptions and the rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases set forth in the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as of the Effective Date. The inclusion or exclusion of a contract or lease on any schedule or exhibit shall not constitute an admission by any Debtor that such contract or lease is an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Debtor has any liability thereunder.

31. Change of Control. To the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned (as applicable) pursuant to the Plan or any prior order of this Court (including, without limitation, any “change of control” provision) prohibits, restricts or conditions, or purports to prohibit, restrict or condition, or is modified, breached or terminated, or deemed modified, breached or terminated by, (a) the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases or the insolvency or financial condition of any Debtor at any time before the closing of its respective Chapter 11 Case, (b) any Debtor’s or any Reorganized Debtor’s assumption or assumption and assignment (as applicable) of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or (c) the Confirmation or Consummation of the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the Plan shall not entitle the non-debtor party thereto to modify or terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to

46

exercise any other default-related rights or remedies with respect thereto, and any required consent under any such contract or lease shall be deemed satisfied by the Confirmation of the Plan. Each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease assumed and/or assigned pursuant to the Plan shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable Reorganized Debtor or the applicable assignee in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as modified by the provisions of the Plan, any order of this Court approving its assumption and/or assignment, or applicable law.

32. Claims on Account of the Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases. All proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases, pursuant to the Plan or this Confirmation Order, if any, must be Filed with this Court within twenty-one (21) days after service of an order of this Court (including this Confirmation Order) approving such rejection. Any Claim arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that becomes an Allowed Claim is classified and shall be treated as a Class 6 General Unsecured Claim. Any Person or Entity that is required to File a proof of Claim arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or an Unexpired Lease that fails to timely do so shall be forever barred, estopped and enjoined from asserting such Claim, and such Claim shall not be enforceable, against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Estates, and the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and their Estates and their respective assets and property shall be forever discharged from any and all indebtedness and liability with respect to such Claim unless otherwise ordered by this Court or as otherwise provided herein. All such Claims shall, as of the Effective Date, be subject to the permanent injunction set forth in Article X.F of the Plan.

47

33. Assumption of the Indemnification Obligations, D&O Liability Insurance Policies and Fiduciary Liability Insurance Policies. On the Effective Date, all Indemnification Provisions shall be deemed and treated as Executory Contracts that are and shall be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed, and all Claims arising from the Indemnification Provisions shall survive the Effective Date and be Unimpaired. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by this Court, entry of this Confirmation Order shall constitute this Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Indemnification Provisions. Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors or other applicable parties under the Indemnification Provisions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnification Provisions shall continue to apply with respect to actions, or failures to act, that occurred on or prior to the Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Indemnification Provisions.

34. On the Effective Date, each D&O Liability Insurance Policy shall be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that is and will be assumed by the Debtors (and assigned to the applicable Reorganized Debtors, if necessary) pursuant to section 365(a) and section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code as to which no proof of Claim, request for administrative expense, or Cure Claim need be Filed, and all Claims arising from the D&O Liability Insurance Policies will survive the Effective Date and be Unimpaired. Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by this Court, entry of this Confirmation Order shall constitute this Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors shall maintain and continue in full force and effect the D&O Liability Insurance Policies for the benefit of the insured Persons for the full term of such policies, and all insured Persons, including without limitation, any members, managers, directors, and officers of the Reorganized Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date or

48

any other individuals covered by such D&O Liability Insurance Policies, shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policies for the full term of such policies regardless of whether such insured Persons remain in such positions after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, nothing in the Plan or this Confirmation Order alters the terms and conditions of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors under the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. For the avoidance of doubt, the D&O Liability Insurance Policies shall continue to apply with respect to actions, or failures to act, that occurred on or prior to the Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. The Debtors are further authorized to take such actions, and to execute and deliver such documents, as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to implement, maintain, cause the binding of, satisfy any terms or conditions of, or otherwise secure for the insureds the benefits of the D&O Tail, without further notice to or order of this Court or approval or consent of any Person or Entity.

35. Postpetition Contracts. Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, including, without limitation, any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed by a Debtor pursuant to the Plan, are binding and may be performed by the applicable Debtor or Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of business without further approval of this Court. Such contracts and leases (including any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed pursuant to the Plan) shall survive and remain unaffected by entry of this Confirmation Order or the occurrence of the Effective Date.

49

36. Existing Leases, Lease Amendments, Entry into New Leases, and Other Real Estate Related Agreements. Without any further notice to or action, order or approval of this Court, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and their successors are authorized and empowered to (a) amend their existing leases, licenses, and use agreements of any kind (including joint or shared use agreements, equipment use agreements, easements, right of way agreements, co-ownership agreements, and partnership agreements related solely to real property and personal property usage) (collectively, “Lease & Use Agreements”), (b) exercise any options under existing Lease & Use Agreements, (c) terminate existing Lease & Use Agreements, (d) enter into new Lease & Use Agreements, and (e) enter into settlement or decommissioning agreements in connection with the termination of any Lease & Use Agreements (which may include the sale or transfer of any personal property located at a leased location by any of the Debtors to a third party so long as the value of such personal property in each instance totals less than $50,000), each as necessary in the ordinary course of business. Any such Lease & Use Agreements are binding and may be performed by the applicable Debtor or Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of business without further approval of this Court.

37. Professional Compensation. All final requests for Professional Fee Claims shall be Filed no later than forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date. After notice in accordance with the procedures established by the Bankruptcy Code and prior Court orders, the Allowed amounts of such Professional Fee Claims shall be determined by this Court. Objections to any Professional Fee Claim must be Filed and served on the Reorganized Debtors and the requesting party by no later than twenty-one (21) days after the Filing of the applicable final request for payment of the Professional Fee Claim.

50

38. No later than the Effective Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall establish and fund the Professional Fee Escrow Account with Cash equal to the Professional Fee Reserve Amount. The Professional Fee Escrow Account shall be maintained by the Reorganized Debtors, in trust solely for the benefit of the Professionals. The Reorganized Debtors shall not commingle any funds contained in the Professional Fee Escrow Account. No Liens, claims, or interests shall encumber the Professional Fee Escrow Account or Cash held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account in any way. Such funds shall not be considered property of the Estates, the Debtors, or the Reorganized Debtors. The amount of Professional Fee Claims owing to the Professionals shall be paid in full in Cash to such Professionals by the Reorganized Debtors from the Professional Fee Escrow Account within five (5) Business Days after such Professional Fee Claims are Allowed by a Final Order; provided that the Debtors’ and the Reorganized Debtors’ obligations to pay Allowed Professional Fee Claims shall not be limited or deemed limited to funds held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account. When all such Professional Fee Claims have been resolved (either because they are Allowed Professional Fee Claims that have been paid or because they have been disallowed, expunged, or withdrawn), any remaining amount in the Professional Fee Escrow Account shall promptly be paid to the Reorganized Debtors without any further action or order of this Court and distributed as set forth herein. To the extent that funds held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account are insufficient to satisfy the Allowed amount of Professional Fee Claims owing to the Professionals, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay such amounts within ten (10) Business Days after entry of the order approving such Professional Fee Claims.

39. To receive payment for unbilled fees and expenses incurred through the Confirmation Date, the Professionals shall estimate their accrued and unpaid Professional Fee Claims from the Petition Date through and as of the Effective Date and shall deliver such estimate to the Debtors, Gibson Dunn, and Akin, within five (5) days of the Effective Date. If a Professional does not provide such estimate, the Reorganized Debtors shall estimate the accrued and unpaid

51

fees and expenses of such Professional in consultation with the Ad Hoc Groups Advisors; provided that such estimate shall not be considered an admission or limitation with respect to the fees and expenses of such Professional. The total amount so estimated as of the Effective Date shall comprise the Professional Fee Reserve Amount; provided that the Reorganized Debtors shall use Cash on hand to increase the amount of the Professional Fee Escrow Account to the extent fee applications are Filed after the Effective Date in excess of the amount held in the Professional Fee Escrow Account based on such estimates.

40. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, from and after the Confirmation Date, each Reorganized Debtor shall in the ordinary course of business pay (subject to the receipt of an invoice) in Cash the reasonable and documented legal, professional, or other fees and expenses incurred by such Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable) after the Confirmation Date without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of this Court. Upon the Confirmation Date, any requirement that Professionals comply with sections 327 through 331 and 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code in seeking retention or compensation for services rendered after such date shall terminate, and each Reorganized Debtor may employ and pay any Professional in the ordinary course of business without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of this Court.

41. Restructuring Expenses. The Restructuring Expenses incurred, or estimated to be incurred, up to and including the Effective Date shall be paid in full in Cash on the Effective Date (to the extent not previously paid during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms set forth in the Plan and in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the First Lien Credit Documents, the Second Lien Notes Documents and/or DIP Orders, as applicable, without any requirement to File a fee application with this Court or for this Court’s review or

52

approval. On or before the date that is five (5) days prior to the Effective Date, invoices for all Restructuring Expenses incurred or estimated to be incurred prior to and as of the Effective Date shall be submitted to the Debtors and paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms set forth in the Plan and in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the First Lien Credit Documents, the Second Lien Notes Documents and/or DIP Orders, as applicable. In addition, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors (as applicable) shall continue to pay, when due and payable in the ordinary course, the Restructuring Expenses related to the Plan and implementation, Consummation, and defense of the Restructuring Transactions, whether incurred before, on, or after the Effective Date, in accordance with any applicable engagement letter, the Restructuring Support Agreement, the DIP Orders, the First Lien Credit Documents and/or the Second Lien Notes Documents, as applicable.

43. Settlement Agreements and Payments. As of the Confirmation Date, and in accordance with the consent rights contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Debtors are authorized, with the consent of the Required Consenting Lenders for any settlement that requires payment by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, of an amount exceeding $100,000 in Cash, to enter into settlement agreements with respect to Claims or Causes

53

of Action asserted by or against the Debtors or their Estates, and all such settlement agreements are hereby approved to the extent they are consistent with the Plan, the DIP Orders, and the consent rights contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Debtors are authorized, as of the Confirmation Date, to pay any amounts due and owing under such settlement agreements without further notice to or order of this Court.

Unless previously effectuated by separate order entered by this Court, entry of this Confirmation Order shall constitute this Court’s approval of the Debtors’ assumption of each of the Specified Employee Plans. Confirmation and Consummation of the Plan shall not impair or otherwise modify any available defenses of the Reorganized Debtors under the Specified Employee Plans.

47. On and after the Confirmation Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized to make payments pursuant to terms of the Deferred Compensation Plans, including any unpaid amounts due on or prior to the Confirmation Date.

In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to set off any such Claim against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable), unless such Holder has Filed a motion with this Court requesting the authority to perform such setoff on or before the Effective Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Claims against a particular Debtor or Reorganized Debtor shall remain the obligations solely of such respective Debtor or Reorganized Debtor and shall not become obligations of any other Debtor or Reorganized Debtor solely by virtue of the Plan or the Chapter 11 Cases. The Reorganized Debtors shall be authorized to dissolve the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with applicable law or otherwise, in each case as contemplated by the Restructuring Transaction Steps Memorandum, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any conversion of any of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to applicable law, and to the extent any such Entity is dissolved, such Entity shall be deemed dissolved pursuant to the Plan and shall require no further action or approval (other than any requisite filings required under applicable state or federal law).
