Assuming the requisite acceptances are obtained, the Debtors intend to seek Confirmation of the Plan at the Confirmation Hearing (as defined in Article XI.D. herein) commencing on January 22, 2001.
2. Voting Record Date; Voting; Required Approvals
The Debtors have established December 8, 2000 (the "Voting Record Date") as the date for determining which Holders of Claims and Equity Interests are eligible to vote on the Plan. After carefully reviewing this Disclosure Statement, the Plan and the other Solicitation Materials, each Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest in an Impaired Class entitled to vote on the Plan should vote to accept or reject the Plan in accordance with the Voting Instructions, and return the Ballot to Bankruptcy Services LLC (the "Information Agent"), located at Heron Tower, 70 East 55th Street, 6th Floor, New York, NY 10022, Attn: Diane Rocano, in a manner so that it isreceived by 4:00 p.m., prevailing Eastern Standard Time,on or before January 12, 2001.

5. Liquidation Analysis
The Debtors believe that the Plan will produce a greater recovery for Holders of Claims and Equity Interests than would be achieved in a Chapter 7 liquidation because, among other things, the administrative costs and delays incurred in connection with a Chapter 7 case would likely diminish the distributions to such Holders, and the projected liquidation of the Debtors would not produce any recovery for Holders of Unsecured Claims. Houlihan Lokey, the Debtors' financial advisors, have prepared a liquidation analysis on behalf of the Debtors to assist Holders of Claims and Equity Interests to reach their determination as to whether to accept or reject the Plan. This Liquidation Analysis estimates the proceeds to be realized if the Debtors were to be liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidation Analysis is based upon projected assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of December 28, 2000 and incorporates estimates and assumptions developed by the Debtors which are subject to potentially material changes with respect to economic and business conditions, as well as uncertainty not within the Debtors' control. The Liquidation Analysis does not include liabilities that may arise as a result of litigation, certain new tax assessments, landlord lease rejection Claims, employee severance Claims, or other potential Claims. No value was assigned to additional proceeds which might result from the sale of certain items with intangible value. The Liquidation Analysis also does not include potential recoveries from avoidance actions. Therefore, the actual liquidation value of the Debtors could vary materially from the estimates provided herein.
6. Risk Factors
There are a variety of factors that all Impaired Creditors and Impaired Equity Holders should consider prior to accepting or rejecting the Plan. Some of these factors, which are described in more detail in Article XII of the Disclosure Statement, are as follows and may impact the recoveries under the Plan:
a. The financial information contained in this Disclosure Statement has not been audited and is based on an analysis of data available at the time of the preparation of the Plan and Disclosure Statement.
b. Article XII of the Disclosure Statement herein describes certain significant federal tax consequences of the transactions that are described herein and in the Plan that affect the Debtors and others. Such consequences may include: (1) the realization of cancellation of indebtedness income; (2) the reduction of net operating loss carryforward and unrealized built-in-losses; and (3) the recognition of taxable income by the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. Holders of Claims and Equity Interests are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of the Plan.
5
c. Although the Debtors believe that the Plan complies with all applicable standards of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors can provide no assurance that the Plan will comply with Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code or that the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan.
d. The Debtors may be required to request Confirmation of the Plan without the acceptance of all Impaired Classes entitled to vote in accordance with Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
e. Any delays of either Confirmation or the Effective Date of the Plan could result in, among other things, increased Claims of Professionals.
f. Although the Plan does not contemplate consolidating any of the Debtors into one entity, the Debtors can provide no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will not order one or more of the Debtors to be substantively consolidated, or that a party in interest will not move for such substantive consolidation to occur. Substantive consolidation of one or more of the Debtors into one entity would affect the distribution of property currently provided in the Plan.
g. The Debtors are party to various legal proceedings, described in more detail herein, which could result in decisions adverse to the Debtors.
The occurrence of any and all such contingencies which could affect distributions available to Holders under the Plan, however, will not affect the validity of the vote taken by the Impaired Classes to accept or reject the Plan or require any sort of re-vote by the Impaired Classes.
7. Reorganized Debtors and the Post-Confirmation Estate
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, each Debtor shall continue to exist as a Reorganized Debtor after the Effective Date as a separate entity with all the powers of a corporation under the laws of the respective state of incorporation and without prejudice to any right to alteror terminate such existence (whether by merger or otherwise) under such applicable state law. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Lock-Up Agreements, the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement, or any agreement, instrument or indenture relating thereto, on or after the Effective Date, all property in each Estate (including, but not limited to, any Debtor's equity, partnership, membership or other interest in any Debtor or non-Debtor business entity) and any property acquired by each of the Debtors under the Plan shall vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, free and clear of all liens, Claims, charges, or other encumbrances (except for liens, if any, granted to secure the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement, Claims under the DIP Facility that by their terms survive termination of that Facility, the Exit Facility, and or as otherwise provided in the Plan). On and after the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor may operate its business and may use, acquire or dispose of property and compromise or settle any Claims or Equity Interests without supervision or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rules, other than those restrictions expressly imposed by the Plan and the Confirmation Order.
8. Permanent Injunction
From and after the Effective Date, all Persons and Entities are permanently enjoined from commencing or continuing in any manner, any suit, action or other proceeding, on account of or respecting any Claim, obligation, debt, right, Cause of Action, remedy or liability released or to be released pursuant to Article X of the Plan.

3. Business Segments
United Artists derives approximately two-thirds of its revenue from box office admissions, which in 1999 totaled $433 million. United Artists' remaining revenue comes mostly from concession sales, which totaled approximately $175 million in 1999. United Artists' major operating cost is the film license fees it pays to film studios and distributors. United Artists generally pays film license fees based on a percentage of box office revenue, and over the years has paid approximately 50% of its box office revenue to film studios and distributors.
Film is the life-blood of United Artists' business. If film studios and distributors stop supplying United Artists with films, United Artists will have to cease all operations because it will have no film to exhibit in its theatres. To ensure United Artists' continued access to films, United Artists must maintain good relationships with film studios. United Artists already has excellent, long-standing relationships with all of the major and independent film studios. The best way for United Artists to maintain these relationships is by timely paying film license fees to the studios and providing assurances that it will timely pay film license fees in the future.
4. The Film Exhibition Industry
There are currently more than 400 motion picture exhibitors operating approximately 37,000 screens in North America. With so many exhibitors, the film exhibition industry is competitive yet fragmented. As of December 31, 1999, United Artists' 2,018 screens represented 5.4% of the screens in North America. United Artists' $433 million in box office revenue represented a 5.9% market share of the $7.3 billion total box office revenue in North America. As of June 30, 2000, due to continued expansion of screens in general and United Artists' disposition of screens in particular, United Artists' screens decreased to 1,816 (4.8% of the total screens in North America), and United Artists' market share of total box office revenue decreased to 5.4%.
The film exhibition business is highly seasonal and has heightened attendance levels during the summer months and holidays. During non-peak periods, earnings can fluctuate dramatically due to the presence or absence of successful or "blockbuster" films. Film box office revenue is very sensitive to changes in attendance levels because a significant amount of the costs to exhibit films, such as rents, payroll, etc., are fixed costs necessary to operate theatres.

5. Recent Developments in the Film Exhibition Industry
During the past few years, the economics of film exhibition have changed dramatically and to the detriment of film exhibitors. Although the number of film screens nationwide has increased, construction and operations costs also have increased, and movie theatre attendance has been relatively flat. There are simply insufficient attendance and box office revenue to support the operating and construction costs of existing and newly constructed movie theatres.
This change in the economics of film exhibition started primarily in 1997, when several of United Artists' major competitors embarked on massive expansion programs to build new theatres with the latest technology and theatre designs, including digital sound systems and stadium seating, in order to gain market share. These expansion programs were fueled by greater private equity investment and associated high-yield financing in the film exhibition industry and increased investment in the real estate sector. As a result of these expansion programs, the number of screens nationwide increased by 7.2% in 1997, 7.2% in 1998, and 8.8% in 1999. In comparison, the average rate of increase in the number of movie screens since 1978 is only 3.9%.
Not only has there been a significant increase in the number of movie theatres nationwide, but there also have been significant increases in the number of movie screens per theatre and in the construction costs per movie screen. These increases are the result of the development of the "megaplex" theatre model. Historically, most movie theatres had only one to three screens, with some having as many as six screens. In the past decade or so, the dominant theatre model became the "multiplex" theatre—a multi-screen theatre with eight to twelve screens and sloped floors. Multiplex theatres were designed to be more profitable and lead to economies of scale because exhibitors could spread operating facilities (concession stands and restrooms) and fixed costs (rents, utilities, and personnel) over more screens. However, during 1996, a new theatre design, the "megaplex," was introduced. A megaplex theatre has fourteen or more movie screens (some megaplexes have as many as thirty screens), stadium seating, high-backed rocking seats, digital sound, expanded concession areas, and other new amenities. Megaplex theatres enable multiple showings of the same film and the simultaneous showing of films that appeal to a wide variety of audiences. Megaplex theatres also allow exhibitors greater flexibility in moving a film title from one screen to another as the title becomes more or less popular. By 1997, the megaplex became the industry standard in most major markets.
For all of their perceived benefits, however, these new multiplex and megaplex theatres are expensive to build. The cost per screen of a stadium-seating, megaplex theatre is now $1 million or more. In contrast, approximately five years ago the construction cost per screen of a typical multiplex theatre was less than $500,000.
Unfortunately, the skyrocketing construction costs associated with these new multiplex and megaplex theatres have not been offset by increases in box office revenue. Although box office revenue was at record levels in 1999, this was attributable mostly to increases in ticket prices; attendance in 1999 was approximately equal to that for 1998. This flat attendance, coupled with the significant increases in the number of movie screens, resulted in an approximately 8.1% decrease in industry attendance per screen and an approximately 1.0% decrease in industry box office revenue per screen in 1999. As a result, cash flow (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or "EBITDA") and earnings for the entire film exhibition industry declined. These reduced cash flows and earnings, coupled with increased debt from the significant investment in new multiplex and megaplex theatres, have put significant financial pressure on the film exhibition industry.
6. United Artists' Recent Capital Improvements
United Artists developed a "capital reinvestment" program in response to its competitors' recent capital investments and improvements. This program devoted United Artists' limited resources to: disposing of theaters that were non-profitable or in non-strategic markets; rebuilding or renovating
9
theatres in important markets; and building new twelve-to-sixteen screen stadium theatres ("smaller megaplexes") on a very limited basis to defend market share. United Artists believes that the "smaller megaplex" theatre model probably has the best cost per screen ratio and may produce the best long-term return on investment.
Since 1997, United Artists has made a significant amount of capital improvements under its capital reinvestment program. United Artists' total capital expenditures, which primarily included the renovation, expansion, or replacement of existing theatres, increased from $67.4 million in 1997 to $116.9 million in 1998. Virtually all of United Artists' theatres built since 1997 are smaller megaplexes with stadium seating and all other state-of-the-art amenities. As a result, United Artists' average number of screens per theatre increased from 4.8 in 1992 to 7.1 as of December 31, 1999. Now, more than 39% of all of United Artists' movie screens have been constructed since 1992, and as of December 31, 1999, 293 of United Artists' 2,018 screens have stadium seating.
By 1999, United Artists believed that many of its markets had adequate seat and movie screen capacity, and this, plus United Artists' tightening liquidity status, led United Artists to lower its 1999 capital improvement expenditures to $64.5 million. By this time, however, United Artists' competitors had constructed so many new theatres and screens that the entire film exhibition industry was over-saturated with theatres. While United Artists, the sixth largest exhibitor in North America, invested only $248.8 million between 1997 and 1999, the top five film exhibitors invested an aggregate of $3.6 billion in capital improvements during the same period.
7. Declines in Film Exhibition Profitability
As a result of the aggressive over-expansion in the industry, and despite record attendance levels in 1998 and 1999, the profits and asset valuations of the major film exhibitors, including United Artists, declined. The higher operating and construction costs of these new multiplex and megaplex theatres, coupled with their higher screen per theatre and cost per screen ratios, led to lower attendance and cash flows per screen and eroded any economies of scale that these theatres were designed to achieve. Moreover, at older, non-stadium theatres, cash flow declined due to increased competition from newly constructed megaplex theatres.
The new multiplex and megaplex theatres also led to an increase in the average cost of film licensing. Usually, a film exhibitor pays license fees to movie studios based upon a percentage of box office revenue, with the percentage payable for any particular film decreasing over time. An exhibitor might pay a license fee of 70% of box office revenue for the first week of a movie's exhibition, 60% the second week, and so on. Therefore, an exhibitor's average license fees decrease (and profits increase) the longer a movie title plays. Now, as a result of the increase in the number of movie screens nationwide, most consumers can see a film in the first two or three weeks of a title's release, which results in shorter-lived box office runs. Therefore, exhibitors can no longer capitalize on the more favorable pricing dynamics that take effect in the latter weeks of movie runs.
For all of these reasons, United Artists' cash flow became insufficient to support its current debt balances and related obligations. Specifically, UA incurred net losses of $50 million in 1997, $98 million in 1998, and $127.3 million in 1999. Moreover, as a result of a decline in cash flow and the increase in debt relating to its capital expansion program, United Artists became significantly over-leveraged compared to its competitors, in part because it already had a higher leverage ratio than most of its competitors prior to the industry screen expansions beginning in 1997. Even though United Artists slowed its screen expansion efforts and focused on improving its existing capacity, these industry-wide developments hampered United Artists' efforts to mitigate its decline in cash flow and defend its positions in key geographical markets.

8. Summary of Certain Lending Facilities
Before the Petition Date, United Artists partially funded its and its subsidiaries' operations through a $450 million partially revolving credit facility (the "Prepetition Bank Credit Facility") established under the Prepetition Bank Credit Agreement, a credit agreement dated April 21, 1998, by and among UA and Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, as administrative agent ("Bank of America"), and certain other lenders specified therein, as amended from time to time. As of May 2, 2000, the outstanding indebtedness under the Prepetition Bank Credit Agreement totaled approximately $440 million in principal.
The Prepetition Bank Credit Facility is guaranteed by the following direct or indirect subsidiaries of UA: UATC; UAR; UAP I; and UAP II. The Prepetition Bank Credit Facility is secured by, among other things, a pledge of 100% of the stock in the following direct or indirect subsidiaries of UA: UAR; UAP I; UAP II; UATC; UAB; UAB II; Tallthe; UAIPH; UAPH II; UAIMC; BPTC; UFDC; UATA; and UAPR. The Prepetition Bank Credit Facility is also secured by mortgages on approximately thirty-one theatres owned by UATC, UAR, and UAP I. The Prepetition Bank Credit Facility is also secured by substantially all of the personal property of UA, UATC, UAR, UAP I, and UAP II. The Prepetition Bank Credit Facility is also secured by an Intercompany Note, pursuant to which UATC is obligated to pay to UA the principal amount, plus interest, of any amounts that UA loans to UATC from the proceeds of that Facility.
In April, 1998, at the same time that it entered into the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, UA issued the Fixed Rate Notes, which are $225 million of 9.75% unsecured senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2008, pursuant to the Fixed Rate Note Indenture, an indenture dated April 28, 1998 between UA and State Street Bank and Trust Company of Missouri, N.A., as the Fixed Rate Note Indenture Trustee. In April, 1998, UA also issued the Floating Rate Notes, which are $50 million of three month LIBOR plus 4.375% unsecured senior subordinated notes, pari passu, due October 15, 2007 pursuant to the Floating Rate Note Indenture, an indenture dated April 21, 1998 between UA and State Street Bank and Trust Company of Missouri, N.A., as the Floating Rate Note Indenture Trustee. The Fixed Rate Notes and the Floating Rate Notes (collectively, the "Subordinated Notes") are subordinate to the Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Agreement.
On December 13, 1995, UATC entered into a leveraged lease financing transaction, pursuant to which it obtained "off balance sheet" financing for thirty-one movie theatres that it currently operates (the "Leveraged Lease Financing Transaction"). In connection with the Leveraged Lease Financing Transaction, UATC conveyed title to those theatres (a) to an Owner Trust for an estate of twenty-one years and (b) to a Remainder Trust for the remainder, upon the expiration of the estate of twenty-one years. UATC received the sale proceeds from the conveyance of those theatres and also executed a lease, dated December 13, 1995 (the "Lease") with the Owner Trust pursuant to which UATC would occupy and operate those theatres until January 12, 2017, with an option to extend the Lease for two additional periods of five years each.
The Owner Trust funded its purchase of the thirty-one theatres by receiving an equity investment of $8,577,459 from third-party investors and obtaining a 9.30% mortgage loan of $116,753,000 from Fleet National Bank of Connecticut, not individually, but as a corporate indenture trustee for an indenture trust who sold pass-through certificates to investors on the open market pursuant to that trust. The Fleet mortgage loan, which matures on July 1, 2015, is secured in part by a first mortgage on the Owner Trust's and the Remainder Trust's interests in each of the thirty-one theatres as well as an assignment of all of the Owner Trust's right, title, and interest in the Lease. On or about June 30, 1997,
11
State Street Bank and Trust Company purchased substantially all the corporate trust business of Fleet National Bank, including all of its rights under the Leveraged Lease Financing Transaction. Accordingly, State Street Bank serves as indenture trustee under the Leveraged Lease Financing Transaction.
On or about November 8, 1996, UATC entered into a sale-leaseback transaction, pursuant to which UATC sold five movie theatres to Theatre Investors II, LLC for $22,854,379 and leased back those theatres pursuant to a lease that terminates in 2017, with two options to renew to November 7, 2026. Moreover, on or about December 15, 1997, UATC entered into another sale-leaseback transaction, pursuant to which UATC sold two movie theatres to Park Meadows Business Trust for $18,130,643 and leased back those theatres pursuant to a lease that terminates in 2019, with two options to renew to December 31, 2029.
9. Prepetition Restructuring Activities
In 1997, United Artists instituted a program called "Project Clean-Up," which was partially in response to the increase in the number of United Artists' unprofitable theatre leases caused by the development of new theatres by United Artists' competitors. Project Clean-Up complemented United Artists' capital reinvestment program described above. Under Project Clean-Up, United Artists began (a) terminating leases for unprofitable theatres that could not compete with the new multiplex and megaplex stadium theatres and (b) selling real estate underlying theatres that had higher values for uses other than theatres. The intent of Project Clean-Up was to (i) improve United Artists' cash flow by eliminating non-performing theatres, (ii) enable United Artists to focus its management on the more productive parts of United Artists' asset base, and (iii) improve market perception of United Artists' asset base.
By 1999, United Artists had reduced its total number of theatres and screens from their 1995 levels of approximately 406 theatres having 2,310 screens (an 8.3% market share of total screens) to 283 theatres having 2,018 screens (a 5.4% market share of total screens). These dispositions resulted in approximately $51 million of net sale proceeds and the elimination of approximately $12.7 million of annual negative cash flow. Moreover, United Artists reduced its general and administrative costs from $35.1 million in 1996 to $24.3 million, $23.4 million, and $22.6 million in 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. It is currently estimated that United Artists' fiscal 2000 general and administrative costs will be approximately $21.5 million.
Unfortunately, the sale or closing of some of United Artists' theatres under Project Clean-Up has not occurred quickly enough to enable United Artists to support its debt service adequately. During early 2000, United Artists began to face serious liquidity problems caused by its declining cash flow and significant debt burden. In 1999, cash flow already had declined to $66.1 million and resulted in an interest coverage ratio of 0.99, compared to cash flow and an interest coverage ratio of $91.9 million and 1.69, respectively, in 1998.
Beginning in the latter part of 1999, United Artists has attempted to accelerate the disposition of theatres under Project Clean-Up by devoting more of its internal resources to that project as well as employing the services of outside disposition specialists. Although the rate of disposition has increased, it has not been enough to significantly ease United Artists' liquidity problems. Consequently, United Artists has been unable to satisfy all of its obligations in a timely manner, which has resulted in additional drains on United Artists' limited resources, such as lease litigation with landlords.
Due in part to United Artists' continued liquidity problems and its use of asset sale proceeds from Project Clean-Up to fund on-going operations, on or about April 12, 2000, the lenders under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility declared a payment default under that Facility and, as permitted by the Indentures, blocked the payment of interest to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes. As a result, on April 15, 2000, UA was unable to make a $12.3 million interest payment to the Holders of the
12
Subordinated Notes. Moreover, since May 4, 2000, UA was unable to make timely interest payments under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility until, as explained below, shortly before the Petition Date.
10. Negotiations and Lock-Up Agreements with the Prepetition Lenders
In anticipation of a potential restructuring, in March, 2000, the Debtors retained Kirkland & Ellis and Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin to assist it with the development of a restructuring plan. In April, 2000, the Debtors began extensive, arm's length negotiations with an ad hoc committee comprised of the Bank of America and certain of the Prepetition Lenders (i.e., Morgens, Waterfall, Vintiadis & Company, Inc. ("Morgens, Waterfall") and Van Kampen Investment Advisory Corp. ("Van Kampen") (collectively, the "Working Group"), together with all of the parties' respective legal and financial advisors, concerning a consensual restructuring of the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. Subsequently, E.N. Investment Company ("ENIC"), a subsidiary of The Anschutz Corporation, became a Holder of approximately $92,153,153.73 of Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, and began participating in the negotiations with the Debtors concerning a consensual restructuring of that Facility. In August, 2000, the Debtors, Bank of America, and certain of the Prepetition Lenders representing 98.08% of the total principal amount outstanding, and 83.33% in number of holders, under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility (including ENIC, Morgens, Waterfall, and Van Kampen), marked the culmination of their negotiations by executing Lock-Up, Voting, and Consent Agreements (collectively, the "Bank Lock-Up Agreements"), copies of which are contained in the Plan Supplement. The remaining Prepetition Lenders, which consist of Putnam Diversified Income Trust, Putnam High Yield Managed Fund, Putnam High Yield Trust II, and Putnam High Yield Total Return Fund (collectively, the "Putnam Entities") did not execute the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, but have given written directions to their agent to vote with the majority of the Prepetition Lenders on any issue relating to the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility.
The Bank Lock-Up Agreements provide a framework for the consensual restructuring of the Debtors' obligations through a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case and plan of reorganization. The Bank Lock-Up Agreements specify, in part, the treatment to be provided to each general class of the Debtors' creditors under the Plan in a Term Sheet attached to and incorporated by the Bank Lock-Up Agreements (the "Term Sheet"). Under the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, the Debtors, upon the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, committed themselves to filing the Plan and Disclosure Statement consistent with the Term Sheet. Those Prepetition Lenders who signed the Bank Lock-Up Agreements committed themselves, among other things: (a) to support and vote for the Plan so long as it was consistent with the Term Sheet (subject to compliance with all applicable solicitation procedures and other requirements under the Bankruptcy Code); (b) to forbear from exercising any rights or remedies they may have under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility and all related documents, applicable law, or otherwise, regarding any existing default under the Facility. As a result of the Bank Lock Up Agreements and the Putnam entities' irrevocable voting instructions previously discussed, the Debtors have the support of 100% of their Prepetition Lenders.
The Bank Lock-Up Agreements in essence also required the Debtors to pay any due and payable interest and letter of credit and commitment fees (subject to certain exceptions contained in the Bank Lock-Up Agreements) and all accrued professional fees and expenses of ENIC, Bank of America, and the Working Group (collectively, the "Prepetition Bank Credit Facility Fees"), when the Debtors, Bank of America, and certain of the Prepetition Lenders representing at least 662/3% of the total principal amount outstanding, and more than 50% in number of holders, under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility (including ENIC), executed the Bank Lock-Up Agreements. The Bank Lock-Up Agreements further required the Debtors to remain current, and obtain all necessary approvals to remain current, on such Prepetition Bank Credit Facility Fees on the Petition Date. In accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors did in fact pay all due and payable interest and letter of credit and commitment fees under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility.
13
The Bank Lock-Up Agreements remain in effect and binding upon the signatories thereto until the earlier of (a) the Debtors' failure to file a plan of reorganization consistent with the terms of the Term Sheet and the Bank Lock-Up Agreements on or before October 31, 2000 (the Plan having been filed on September 5, 2000), (b) the Prepetition Lenders' receipt of notice from the Debtors that they cannot provide for the economic treatment of the Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility in a plan of reorganization in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements and Term Sheet, (c) the filing by the Debtors of a plan which does not provide for the economic treatment of Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements and Term Sheet, (d) the Bankruptcy Court's denial of Confirmation of the Plan and the Debtors' failure to file a new or amended Plan in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements and Term Sheet within thirty (30) days thereafter; or (e) one year from the date of the Bank Lock-Up Agreements.
In anticipation of a potential bankruptcy case, UAPH II, which holds approximately 67% of the preferred stock and 95% of the common stock Mamaroneck, called a Mamaroneck shareholders' meeting. UAPH II previously had voted in favor of a shareholders' resolution to dissolve Mamaroneck pursuant to state law. UAPH II called the new shareholders' meeting to consider a resolution authorizing Mamaroneck's board of directors to liquidate, dissolve, and/or wind up Mamaroneck, pursuant to state or federal law, as the board in the exercise of its discretion saw fit. On or about August 22, 2000, a meeting of Mamaroneck's shareholders was held, upon due and proper notice, and the requisite number of shareholders voted in favor of the proposed resolution.
11. Negotiations and Lock-Up Agreements with the Subordinated Noteholders
In early August, 2000, the Debtors also commenced arm's length negotiations with an ad hoc committee of holders of the Subordinated Notes, including Apollo Advisors, Trentex Capital Management, Goldentree Asset Management, Putnam Investments and IDS, together with the parties' respective legal and financial advisors (the "Prepetition Subordinated Noteholder Committee"), regarding the terms of the Debtors' consensual restructuring. The Subordinated Noteholder Committee retained Milbank, Tweed, Handley & McCloy ("Milbank") as its legal advisor and Chanin Kirkland Messina LLC ("Chanin") as its financial advisor. The Debtors also entered into a letter agreement, dated July 5, 2000, with Milbank pursuant to which the Debtors agreed to pay the reasonable legal fees and expenses of Milbank in connection with its representation of the Prepetition Subordinated Noteholder Committee. As compensation for Milbank's services, the Debtors agreed to provide Milbank with an initial fee reserve of $25,000 to be applied against fees and expenses to be incurred in connection with Milbank's representation of the Prepetition Subordinated Noteholder Committee. The letter agreement is terminable at will by either the Debtors or Milbank on certain conditions set forth therein. The Debtors also entered into a letter agreement, dated July 31, 2000, with Chanin, pursuant to which, among other things, the Debtors agreed to pay to Chanin certain fees in connection with Chanin's rendering of financial advisory services to the Prepetition Subordinated Noteholder Committee in connection with the Debtors' proposed restructuring. As compensation for these services, the Debtors agreed to pay Chanin, beginning August 1, 2000, $150,000 per month for the first month, and $100,000 per month thereafter. The Chanin letter agreement is terminable at will by either the Debtors or Chanin on certain conditions set forth therein.
The Debtors engaged in approximately two months of good faith, arm's length negotiations regarding a consensual restructuring with an ad hoc committee of the Subordinated Noteholders, together with that committee's attorneys and financial advisors, whose fees were paid for by the Debtors. On Friday afternoon, September 1, 2000, three Subordinated Noteholders (the "Petitioning Creditors") commenced an involuntary bankruptcy case against "United Artists Theater Company," in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas in an apparent attempt to file an involuntary bankruptcy case against the Debtors' holding company, United Artists Theatre Company.In re United Artists Theater Co.(Case No. 200-35637) (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Sept. 1, 2000) (the "Involuntary Case").
14
On or about September 5, 2000, the Debtors and certain of the Subordinated Noteholders representing at least 662/3% of the total principal amount outstanding under the Subordinated Notes reached an agreement regarding a consensual restructuring and executed Lock-Up, Voting, and Consent Agreements (collectively, the "Subordinated Noteholder Lock-Up Agreements"). Among other things, the Subordinated Noteholder Lock-Up Agreements reflect the respective signatories' support for, and intention to vote in favor of, the Plan in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, subject to compliance with all applicable solicitation procedures and other requirements under the Bankruptcy Code. The Subordinated Noteholder Lock-Up Agreements essentially provide: (a) for the Holders of Subordinated Note Claims to receive the New UA Warrants, as defined in the Plan; and (b) for the Debtors to pay the legal and financial advisory fees of the Prepetition Subordinated Noteholders' Committee in accordance with the specific terms of the Lock-Up Agreements.
12. Negotiations with Unsecured Creditors
The Debtors were unable to approach their general unsecured creditors before the Petition Date due to the numerosity and unidentified nature of a significant portion of those claims. Nevertheless, at that time the Debtors hoped and anticipated that they would be able to obtain the support of their general unsecured creditors for the Plan, which provides for a distribution to those creditors greater than what those creditors would receive in a Chapter 7 case. As discussed below, after commencing the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors and the Trade Subcommittee of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors entered into good faith, arms-length negotiations concerning the treatment of Holders of Allowed Unsecured Class 2F Claims under the Plan. On or about December 6, 2000, the Debtors and the Trade Subcommittee reached an agreement regarding the Plan's treatment of such Holders of Allowed Unsecured Class 2F Claims and as a result executed the United Artists Theatre Company/Trade Subcommittee of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors Proposed Restructuring Term Sheet (the "Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet," a copy of which is contained in the Plan Supplement). The Plan has been amended to incorporate this agreement and the terms in the Term Sheet. The Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet essentially sets forth certain modifications to the terms of the Plan including: (1) the treatment of Unsecured Claims of UATC, including Unsecured Claims arising from UATC's rejection of certain unexpired leases under Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; (2) the method of the Debtors' determination of those unexpired leases and executory contracts which they intend to assume, assume and assign or reject pursuant to the Plan; and (3) certain agreements regarding certain avoidance actions to be brought by the Debtors. The Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet also obligates the Trade Subcommittee to, among other things, (i) not consent to, provide any support to, participate in the formulation of, or vote on any plan of reorganization, other than the Plan; and (ii) use its best efforts to cause the Committee and the Trade Subcommittee to take all actions in their reasonable discretion to achieve confirmation and consummation of the Plan.
13. The Petition Date
On September 5, 2000, the Petition Date, each of the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. As discussed below, on or about September 6, 2000, the Debtors reached an agreement with the Petitioning Creditors with respect to the Involuntary Case. The Debtors and the Petitioning Creditors agreed, in pertinent part, to transfer the Involuntary Case to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. On September 7, 2000, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order procedurally consolidating the Chapter 11 Cases for administrative purposes only. Since the Petition Date, the Debtors have continued to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to Section 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. Additional post-filing developments are discussed in Article XIII of the Disclosure Statement.
15
D. Components of the Plan; Treatment of Classes of Claims and Equity Interests
The Debtors commenced the Chapter 11 Cases after it became apparent that their previous efforts would be unable to address their liquidity needs timely and sufficiently. The purpose of the Plan is to restructure the Debtors' current lending facilities to provide the Debtors with the ability to emerge from bankruptcy with the liquidity needed to move forward in their business activities. The Debtors believe that the reorganization contemplated by the Plan is in the best interests of their Creditors and Equity Holders. If the Plan is not confirmed, the Debtors believe that they will be forced to either file an alternate plan of reorganization or liquidate under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In either event, the Debtors believe that Holders of General Unsecured Claims, Subordinated Notes, and Equity Interest Holders would realize a less favorable distribution of value, if any, for their Claims or Equity Interests, than under this Plan proposed by the Debtors.See the "Liquidation Analysis" contained in Article III.A below.
1. Purpose
The principal purpose of the Plan is to provide the Debtors with the liquidity necessary to stabilize the Reorganized Debtors and to allow them to continue their respective businesses. This is accomplished as follows.
2. Treatment of Prepetition Lenders
As previously discussed, the Plan incorporates the terms of the Bank Lock-Up Agreements. The Bank Lock-Up Agreements require each Prepetition Lender to make knowing, voluntary, and irrevocable election to be treated under the Plan as a Debt Elector or an Equity Elector. Under the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, each Prepetition Lender will irrevocably be treated as a Debt Elector unless that Lender has made an affirmative, irrevocable election in writing to be treated as an Equity Elector under the Plan on or before August 29, 2000.
Under the Plan (as described more fully herein) and in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, the Equity Electors will receive, in the aggregate, on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of its Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, a Pro Rata distribution of (a) approximately 20% of New UA Common Stock, (b) $57,000,000 in zero dividend perpetual New UA Convertible Preferred Stock with the right to convert to New UA Common Stock at a $6.25 strike price, and (c) Equity Elector Warrants to acquire New UA Common Stock at a $10.00 strike price for seven years. In the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, Anschutz (through ENIC) has committed itself to be United Artists' "equity sponsor" and has elected to be treated as an Equity Elector on account of all of its Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. However, the Bank Lock-Up Agreements provide that if the aggregate amount of Prepetition Bank Credit Facility Claims of Prepetition Lenders electing to be treated as Equity Electors under the Plan (including ENIC) exceed $100,000,000, then Anschutz (and thereby ENIC) have the sole and absolute discretion to render void its obligations under the Bank Lock-Up Agreements.
Under the Plan (as described more fully herein) and in accordance with the Lock-Up Agreements, each Debt Elector will receive Pro Rata note interests in a restructured Prepetition Bank Credit Facility with a principal amount set at the equivalent of 72.5% of the aggregate amount of Claims of the Debt Electors under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, with a maturity date four years from the Confirmation Date, secured by substantially all of the assets of UA, UATC, UAR, UAP I, and UAP II (with a pledge by UAPH II to use all commercially reasonable efforts to pledge the stock in all of its subsidiaries) (the "Restructured Bank Credit Facility"). The Debt Electors will also receive in the aggregate approximately 80% of the New UA Common Stock, which is subject to dilution as set forth in the Plan. Bank of America (or its assignee) will also receive certain New UA Warrants to be held in trust for the benefit of the Debt Electors (or their assignees), to be distributed as described in the Plan.
16
The Restructured Bank Credit Agreement is also subject to other terms and limitations set forth in the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, as contained in the Term Sheet including, among other things: (a) maximum capital expenditure limitations of (i) $30 million for the year 2000, (ii) $50 million for each year thereafter (excluding any unused carry-over from the prior year only), and (iii) $10 million in unused carry-over from the prior year; (b) limitations on additional indebtedness exceeding (i) $5,000,000 in the aggregate for borrowed money, capital lease obligations, and related to required rate contracts, on an unsecured or secured (relating to capital expenditures only) basis and (ii) $25,000,000 for borrowed money or preferred stock from Anschutz or its affiliates, provided that, among other things, such indebtedness is subordinate to the Restructured Bank Credit Facility; and (c) the mutual release of certain parties, as set forth more fully in Article IX.B of the Disclosure Statement. The Bank Lock-Up Agreements also provide for a $1,000,000 fee to be paid in Cash to Bank of America on the Confirmation Date, to be held in trust for the benefit of the Working Group and ENIC in consideration for their efforts in the consensual restructuring of the Debtors' obligations (the "Working Group Fee").
3. DIP Financing and Cash Collateral
In the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, the signatories thereto recognized that the Debtors need a debtor in possession credit facility in an amount not to exceed $25,000,000 to satisfy their liquidity needs during the Chapter 11 Cases (the "DIP Facility"). The Bank Lock-Up Agreements require each Prepetition Lender who elects to be treated as an Equity Elector to participate in and film its Pro Rata portion of the DIP Facility. The Bank Lock-Up Agreements also require a majority of those Prepetition Lenders who are parties thereto to consent to the granting of priming liens in favor of the DIP Facility lenders. The Lock-Up Agreements also require that, as a condition to the Debtors' use of the Prepetition Lenders' cash collateral and the Prepetition Lenders' consent to have their Claims under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility primed, the Debtors shall, among other things, (a) make monthly adequate protection payments equal to the amount of non-default contract interest under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, and (b) grant liens on substantially all of their assets, and to the extent such liens are junior to any liens, such liens are junior only to the DIP Facility priming liens and any valid, non-avoidable prepetition liens held by third parties.
In conjunction with the filing of this Plan, the Debtors have sought (and obtained) approval of the DIP Facility with terms consistent with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements. As set forth in more detail in the DIP Order, the DIP Lenders are entitled to the payment of certain fees and reimbursement of expenses in connection with their respective participation in the DIP Facility. The DIP Facility will provide the Debtors with the necessary liquidity between the Petition Date and the Effective Date of the Plan.
4. Exit Facility
The Debtors anticipate that they will need an exit financing credit facility upon Confirmation of the Plan up to $35,000,000 (the "Exit Facility"). To that end, the signatories to the Bank Lock-Up Agreements have agreed that the Prepetition Lenders that are signatories thereto consent to the Debtors' receipt of Exit Facility financing on terms and conditions that, among other things, provide the Exit Facility lender with a first priority lien on the Reorganized Debtors' assets and/or payment on a last-in, first-out basis. On or about November l0, 2000, the Debtors filed a motion for authority to enter into the Exit Facility with Bankers Trust Company and one or more of its affiliates (collectively, "BTCo") on terms and conditions substantially in the form of the Term Sheet (the "Exit Facility Term Sheet") attached as Annex A to an Exit Facility commitment letter with BTCo (the "Exit Facility Commitment Letter," a copy of which is contained in the Plan Supplement). The Exit Facility will essentially consist of a revolving credit facility of up to $35 million, with a $10 million sub-limit for letters of credit. Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., an affiliate of BTCo, may arrange for other banks, financial institutions, and other "accredited investors" to provide a portion of the Exit Facility, and
17
BTCo will act as administrative agent for such lenders under the Exit Facility. A hearing on the Debtors' motion is scheduled for December 8, 2000. If the motion is approved, the Debtors will have the authority to take certain actions, including, but not limited to (i) the execution of the Exit Facility Commitment letter, and (ii) the making of any required payments and indemnifications necessary during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, as set forth in the Exit Facility Commitment Letter.
5. Treatment of Claims and Interests
The Plan, in accordance with the terms of the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, also provides for and discusses the treatment, satisfaction and payment of other Claims against the Debtors, including but not limited to: (a) General Unsecured Claims, including but not limited to Claims of landlords, who shall receive a Pro Rata distribution of an aggregate Cash payment and certain Preference Litigation Proceeds, and a promissory note, all described more fully herein, (b) Claims of Professionals, who shall be paid in full pursuant to orders of the Bankruptcy Court and with funds set aside as appropriate "carve outs" (which includes a requirement in Article VII.J of the Plan that the Reorganized Debtors deposit Cash into a Professional Escrow Account in an amount reasonably sufficient to pay all Accrued Professional Compensation that has accrued as of the Effective Date;provided, however, that such Cash will be used to satisfy Claims of Professionals only pursuant to further order of the Bankruptcy Court); (c) the Claims of Holders of Subordinated Notes, who will receive the New UA Warrants as described in the Plan; and (d) Intercompany Claims, which shall essentially be paid in full in the ordinary course of business. The Claims of film studios and other critical trade vendors will already have been assumed and paid in full in the ordinary course of the film exhibition and distribution industry pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court.
6. Management Equity
The Plan, in accordance with the terms of the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, also authorizes New UA to provide for Kurt C. Hall to continue as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Reorganized Debtors along with a management team selected by Mr. Hall, subject to approval by the relevant Reorganized Debtor's board of directors, which shall consist of seven members (two nominated by the Debt Electors, four nominated by ENIC, and the Debtors' Chief Executive Offer). The Lock-Up Agreements also provide that existing management employment agreements for certain executive managers shall be assumed and modified under the Plan to provide for mutual releases between such executive managers and the Reorganized Debtors. The Lock-Up Agreements also provide that 1,780,000 shares of New UA's Common Stock will be reserved for stock option grants to existing management executives, which shall dilute existing New UA Common Stock and be vested as follows: 10% upon the Effective Date; 10% on the one-year anniversary after the Effective Date; and 20% on each of the second through fifth one-year anniversaries after the Effective Date. The Plan, in accordance with the Bank Lock-Up Agreements, also provides that a New UA's shareholder's agreement will incorporate up to 761,111 stock options to be reserved for future grants to management by New UA's board of directors, adjusted upward for the dilution effect of certain other warrants, with a strike price to be determined by New UA's board of directors.
7. Funding the Plan
On the Effective Date, the Plan provides for two sources of new liquidity. First, the existing Prepetition Bank Credit Facility will be refinanced by the Restructured Bank Credit Facility, subject to the terms and conditions of the Bank Lock-Up Agreements. The Restructured Bank Credit Facility will be secured by liens on substantially all of the Reorganized Debtors' assets (other than those subject to preexisting mortgages and other liens) and will be on terms and conditions customary for a facility of this type. Second, on or after the Effective Date, the Debtors will receive the $35 million Exit Facility. The Exit Facility will be available for the working capital and general corporate purposes of the Debtors and will also be secured by liens on substantially all of the Reorganized Debtors' assets (other than those subject to preexisting mortgages and other liens held by third parties prior to the Petition
18
Date or created pursuant to the Plan) and will be on terms and conditions customary for a facility of this type.
8. No Substantive Consolidation
The Debtors are not being substantively consolidated under the Plan. Thus, except as otherwise provided in the Plan, any Claim against one of the Debtors will be satisfied solely from the cash and assets of such Debtor. Separate Classes have been established for each of the Debtors.
9. Classification of Claims
The classification of Claims and Equity Interests against the Debtors pursuant to this Plan is as follows:

Class 2B consists of all Bank Claims against UATC arising from or relating to the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. Under the Plan, each Holder of an Allowed Class 2B Claim shall irrevocably be treated as a Debt Elector unless such Holder has made an affirmative, irrevocable election in writing to be treated as an Equity Elector under the Plan on or before August 29, 2000. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of all Class 2B Claims and in accordance with the terms in the Lock-Up Agreements, (i) each Debt Elector shall receive a Pro Rata distribution of (A) the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement Note Interests and (B) the Debt Electors' New UA Common Stock and (ii) Bank of America shall receive the New UA Warrants, to be distributed as described in the Plan. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of all Class 2B Claims and in accordance with the terms in the Lock-Up Agreements, each Equity Elector shall receive a Pro Rata distribution of (i) the Equity Electors' New UA Common Stock, (ii) the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) the Equity Elector Warrants;provided, however, that if any Equity Elector does not fund its required portion of the DIP Facility in accordance with the terms of that Facility and the DIP Order, such Equity Elector shall be deemed a Debt Elector for all purposes under the Plan and in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases and shall have no ability to cure such failure to fund its portion of the DIP Facility. Class 2B is impaired, and approval of the Plan by Holders of at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of Class 2B Claims is required for the Plan to be confirmed.
Holders of Bank Claims in Classes 1B, 3B, 4B, and 5B will receive the same treatment afforded to Holders of Class 2B Claims.
28
Holders of Secured Claims, including Other Secured Claims, in Classes 1C, 2C, 3C, 4C, 5C, 6B, 7B, 8B, 9B, lOB, 11B, 12B, 13B, 14B, 15B, 16B, 17B, and 18B will have their legal, equitable and contractual rights unaltered by the Plan.

Holders of General Unsecured Claims in Class 1E shall receive no distribution directly from the Debtors under the Plan. Holders of General Unsecured Claims in Class 2F will receive Pro Rata distributions of the Unsecured Claim Distribution Amount, Class 2F Promissory Notes, and the Preference Litigation Proceeds.

Holders of Equity Interests in Classes 3F, 4F, 5F, 6E, 7E, 8E, 9E, 10E, 11E, 12E, 13E, 14E, 15E, 16E, and 18E shall retain their Interests in the relevant Reorganized Debtor. Holders of Equity Interests in Class 17E shall receive the Mamaroneck Preferred Stock Payment, and Holders of Equity Interests in Class 17F shall receive a Pro Rata distribution of all liquidated assets of Mamaroneck after Mamaroneck makes all distributions to Holders of Class 17A, 17B, 17C, 17D, and 17E.

11. Liquidation Analysis The Debtors believe that the Plan will produce a greater recovery for Holders of Claims and Equity Interests than would be achieved in a liquidation in a Chapter 7 case. Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin, financial advisors to the Debtors, has prepared a liquidation analysis, set forth in Article III herein, to assist Holders of Claims and Equity Interests to reach their determination as to whether to accept or reject the Plan (the "Liquidation Analysis"). The Liquidation Analysis estimates the proceeds to be realized if the Debtors were to be liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidation Analysis is based upon projected assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of December 28, 2000 and incorporates estimates and assumptions developed by the Debtors which are subject to potentially material changes with respect to economic and business conditions, as well as uncertainties not within the Debtors' control.
No effect to creditor recoveries has been assumed for proceeds from any causes of action, including, but not limited to, preference, fraudulent transfer and other avoidance actions, or any other litigation that the Debtors may be capable of asserting. This Liquidation Analysis does not, therefore, include any estimate of the necessary expenses to litigate such Claims.
34
E. Risk Factors
There are a variety of factors that all Impaired Holders of Claims and Equity Interests should consider prior to voting to accept or reject the Plan. Such factors, which are described in more detail in Article XII herein, consist of some of the following and in each case will likely impact any recovery under the Plan:
1. the financial information contained in this Disclosure Statement has not been audited and is based upon an analysis of data available at the time of the preparation of the Plan and Disclosure Statement;
2. although the Debtors believe the Plan complies with all applicable standards of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors can provide no assurance that the Plan will comply with Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code and that the Plan will be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court;
3. the Debtors will be required to request Confirmation of the Plan without the acceptance of all Impaired Classes entitled to vote in accordance with Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code;
4. the Bank Lock-Up Agreements will terminate one-year from the date of their execution and, thereafter will no longer bind signatories thereto to be bound to support the Debtors' Plan; and
5. any delays of either Confirmation or effectiveness of the Plan could result in, among other things, increased professional fee Claims.
The occurrence of any and all such contingencies which could affect distributions available to Holders under the Plan, however, will not affect the validity of the vote taken by the Impaired Classes to accept or reject the Plan or require any re-vote by the Impaired Classes.
F. Reorganized Debtors and the Post-Confirmation Estates
Except as otherwise described below, each Debtor shall continue to exist as a Reorganized Debtor after the Effective Date as a separate entity with all the powers of a corporation under the laws of the respective state of incorporation and without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate such existence (whether by merger or otherwise) under such applicable state law. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement, or any agreement, instrument or indenture relating thereto, on or after the Effective Date, all property in each Estate (including, but not limited to, any Debtor's equity, partnership, membership or other interest in any Debtor or non-Debtor business entity, and the Causes of Action) and any property acquired by each of the Debtors under the Plan shall vest in each respective Reorganized Debtor, free and clear of all liens, Claims, charges, or other encumbrances and Equity Interests. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may operate their business and may use, acquire or dispose of property and compromise or settle any Claims or Equity Interests, without supervision or approval by the Bankruptcy Court and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rules, other than those restrictions expressly imposed by the Plan and the Condfirmation Order. In accordance with Section 1109(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, nothing herein or in the Plan shall preclude any party in interest from appearing and being heard on any issue in the Chapter 11 Cases.
G. Prepetition Committees
As previously stated, the Bank of America and certain of the Prepetition Lenders formed an ad hoc Working Group prior to the Petition Date. The Working Group consisted of Bank of America, Morgens, Waterfall and Van Kampen. The Working Group was advised by Pillsbury Madison & Sutro, LLP, legal advisors to Bank of America, as Agent under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. E&Y Restructuring LLC was also retained by Pillsbury Madison to be Bank of America's financial advisors. Subsequently, when ENIC, a subsidiary of Anschutz, became a Holder of Claims under the Prepetition
35
Bank Credit Facility, ENIC and Anschutz also began participating in the negotiations with the Debtors concerning a consensual restructuring of that Facility. ENIC and Anschutz retained the law firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP as their legal advisors.
Certain of the Holders of the Subordinated Notes formed the Prepetition Subordinated Noteholder Committee prior to the Petition Date. The members of the Prepetition Noteholder Committee who as of the Petition Date have executed a confidentiality agreement with the Debtors are Apollo Advisors, Trentex Capital Management, Goldentree Asset Management, Putnam Investments, and IDS. Prior to Petition Date, the Prepetition Noteholder Committee retained Milbank as its counsel and Chanin as its financial advisor. As discussed previously, the Debtors have had contact and negotiations with the Prepetition Noteholder Committee concerning the terms of the Plan.
H. Relationship Between the Debtors
As stated previously, UATC and UAR are wholly-owned subsidiaries of UA. UAP I and UAP II are wholly-owned subsidiaries of UAR. The remaining Debtors are direct or indirect subsidiaries of UATC. From time to time, UA has loaned to UATC for its operations some of the loan proceeds that UA has received under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. UATC is obligated to pay to UA the principal amount, plus interest, of Prepetition Bank Credit Facility proceeds that it has borrowed from UA, pursuant to an Intercompany Note. The current principal outstanding indebtedness under the Intercompany Note is equivalent to the principal outstanding indebtedness under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. Moreover, UATC has operated a consolidated cash management system pursuant to which it administers the cash flow of all Debtors.
ARTICLE II
THE PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
A. Introduction
The following summary and the other descriptions in the Disclosure Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the Plan and its exhibits, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. It is urged that each Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest carefully review the terms of the Plan.
In general, a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (i) divides claims and equity interests into separate classes, (ii) specifies the property that each class is to receive under the plan and (iii) contains other provisions necessary to the reorganization of the debtor. Under the Bankruptcy Code, "claims" and "equity interests" are classified rather than "creditors" and "shareholders" because such entities may hold claims or equity interests in more than one class. For purposes of the Disclosure Statement, the term "Holder" refers to the holder of a Claim or Equity Interest, respectively, in a particular Class under the Plan.
A Chapter 11 plan may specify that certain classes of claims or equity interests are either to be paid in full upon effectiveness of the plan or are to remain unchanged by the reorganization effectuated by the plan. Such classes are referred to as "unimpaired," and because of such favorable treatment the holders in such Classes are deemed to accept the plan. Accordingly, it is not necessary to solicit votes from the holders of claims or equity interests in such classes. A Chapter 11 plan also may specify that certain classes will not receive any distribution of property or retain any claim against a debtor. Such classes are deemed not to accept the plan and, therefore, need not be solicited to vote to accept or reject the plan.
36
The majority (but not the entirety) of creditors receiving the Disclosure Statement and ballots to vote on the Plan (because they are entitled to vote) are classified in the following Classes:
Class
| | Claim
|

1B, 2B, 3B, 4B, and 5B | | Bank Claims |
2F, 3E, 4E, 5E, 6D, 7D, 8D, 9D, 10D, 11D, 12D, 13D, 14D, 15D, 16D, and 18D | | General Unsecured Claims |
The following Classes are unimpaired under the Plan, and Holders of Claims in such Classes are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code:

2. Classification and Treatment of Claims
Subject to the provisions of Section 330(a) and 33 1 of the Bankruptcy Code, each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim will be paid the full unpaid amount of such Allowed Administrative Claim in Cash on the Effective Date, or upon such other terms as may be agreed upon by such Holder and the Reorganized Debtors or otherwise upon order of the Bankruptcy Court;provided, however, that Allowed Administrative Claims representing obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business or otherwise assumed by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan will be assumed on the Effective Date and paid or performed by the Reorganized Debtors when due in accordance with the terms and conditions of the particular agreements governing such obligations.
On the Effective Date, each Holder of a Priority Tax Claim due and payable on or prior to the Effective Date shall be paid Cash in an amount equal to the amount of such Allowed Claim, or shall be paid on account of its Allowed Claim on such other terms as have been or may be agreed upon by such Holder and the Debtors. The amount of any Priority Tax Claim that is not an Allowed Claim or that is not otherwise due and payable on or prior to the Effective Date, and the rights of the Holder of such Claim, if any, to payment in respect thereof shall (i) be determined in the manner in which the amount of such Claim and the rights of the Holder of such Claim would have been resolved or adjudicated if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, (ii) survive the Effective Date and Consummation of the Plan as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced, and (iii) not be discharged pursuant to Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. In accordance with Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan shall leave unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual rights of each Holder of a Priority Tax Claim.
Class 1A—Other Priority Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 1A consists of all Other Priority Claims against UA accorded the priority and right of payment under Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (including priority employee salary and wage Claims to the extent not paid prior to Confirmation pursuant to any first-day orders authorizing payment of Prepetition wage, salary, and benefits Claims), other than a Priority Tax Claim or an Administrative Expense Claim. The legal, equitable and contractual rights of the Holders of Class 1A Claims are unaltered by the Plan. Unless the Holder of such Claim and UA agree to a different treatment, each Holder of an Allowed Class 1A Claim shall receive one of the following alternative treatments, at the election of UA: (i) to the extent then due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim will be paid in full in Cash by New UA; (ii) to the extent not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim (A) will be paid in full in Cash by New UA, or (B) will be paid in full in Cash by New UA when and as such Claim becomes due and owing in the ordinary course of business; or (iii) such Claim will be otherwise treated in any other manner so that such Claim shall otherwise be rendered unimpaired pursuant to Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any default with respect to any Class 1A Claim that existed immediately prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case shall be deemed cured upon the Effective Date. Class 1A is not impaired, and the Holders of Class 1A Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Claims in Class 1A are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. The Debtors are not aware of any Claims in this Class.
Class 1B—Bank Claims (Impaired)
Class 1B consists of all Bank Claims against UA arising from or relating to the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. Under the Plan, in full and complete satisfaction of all Claims in Class lB, each Holder
42
of an Allowed Class 1B Claim shall receive the same treatment set forth for the Holders of Class 2B Claims. Class 1B is impaired, and approval of the Plan by Holders of at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of Class 1B Claims is required for the Plan to be confirmed.
Class 1C—Other Secured Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 1C consists of all Secured Claims against UA but does not include Bank Claims. A Secured Claim against UA is: (i) a Claim held by any person or entity, including a judgment creditor, secured by a lien on any property in which UA or its Estate has an interest, which lien is valid, perfected and enforceable under applicable law or by reason of a Final Order, and is not subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law, but only to the extent of (A) the value of such Secured Claim Holder's interest in any interest of UA or its Estate in such property securing such Claim or (B) the amount subject to setoff, as applicable, as determined pursuant to Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; or (ii) a Claim Allowed under the Plan as a Secured Claim.
Under the Plan, on the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Class 1C Claim shall receive one of the following alternative treatments, at the election of UA: (i) the legal, equitable and contractual rights to which such Claim entitles the Holder thereof shall be unaltered by the Plan; (ii) UA shall surrender all collateral securing such Claim to the Holder thereof, without representation or warranty by or recourse against UA or New UA; or (iii) such Claim will be otherwise treated in any other manner so that such Claim shall otherwise be rendered unimpaired pursuant to Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any default with respect to any Class 1C Claim that existed immediately prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases shall be deemed cured upon the Effective Date.
The legal, equitable and contractual rights of the Holders of Class 1C Claims are unaltered by the Plan. Because Class 1C is not impaired, the Holders of Class 1C Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Class 1C Claims are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. The Debtors are not aware of any claims in this Class.
Class 1D—Intercompany Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 1D consists of all Intercompany Claims against UA. Under the Plan, on the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Class 1D Claim shall retain such Claim and the rights, interests, and obligations related thereto. Class 1D is not impaired, and the Holders of Class 1D Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Claims in Class 1D are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.
Class 1E—General Unsecured Claims (Impaired)
Class 1E consists of all General Unsecured Claims against UA (including but not limited to Subordinated Note Claims) but does not include Bank Claims or Intercompany Claims. On the Effective Date, the Holders of Class 1E Claims shall be deemed to have neither received any distribution directly from the Debtors nor have retained any property of the Debtors under the Plan. All Subordinated Notes issued before the Petition Date will be canceled.
Class 1F—Equity Interests (Impaired)
Class 1F consists of all Claims of Holders of Equity Interests in UA. An Equity Interest means any equity interest in UA, including, but not limited to, all issued, unissued, authorized or outstanding shares of stock (including Common Stock and Preferred Stock), together with any warrants, options or contract rights to purchase or acquire such interests at any time. On the Effective Date, the Holders of Class 1F Equity Interests shall neither receive any distribution from the Debtors nor retain any property of the Debtors under the Plan. All Common Stock issued before the Petition Date will be
43
canceled. Class 1F is impaired, but because no distributions will be made to Holders of Class 1F Equity Interests from the Debtors nor will such Holders retain any property of the Debtors, such Holders are deemed to reject the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. Class 1F is not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.
Class 2A—Other Priority Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 2A consists of all Other Priority Claims against UATC accorded the priority and right of payment under Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (including priority employee salary and wage Claims to the extent not paid prior to Confirmation pursuant to any first-day orders authorizing payment of Prepetition wage, salary, and benefits Claims), other than a Priority Tax Claim or an Administrative Expense Claim. The legal, equitable and contractual rights of the Holders of Class 2A Claims are unaltered by the Plan. Unless the Holder of such Claim and UATC agree to a different treatment, each Holder of an Allowed Class 2A Claim shall receive one of the following alternative treatments, at the election of UATC: (i) to the extent then due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim will be paid in full in Cash by New UATC; (ii) to the extent not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim (A) will be paid in full in Cash by New UATC, or (B) will be paid in full in Cash by New UATC when and as such Claim becomes due and owing in the ordinary course of business; or (iii) such Claim will be otherwise treated in any other manner so that such Claim shall otherwise be rendered unimpaired pursuant to Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any default with respect to any Class 2A Claim that existed immediately prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case shall be deemed cured upon the Effective Date. Class 2A is not impaired, and the Holders of Class 2A Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Claims in Class 2A are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. The Debtors are not aware of any Claims in this Class.
Class 2B—Bank Claims (Impaired)
Each Holder of an Allowed Class 2B Claim shall be treated under the Plan as a Debt Elector or an Equity Elector. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of all Class 2B Claims and in accordance with the terms in the Lock-Up Agreements, (i) each Debt Elector shall receive, among other things, a Pro Rata distribution of (A) the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement Note Interests and (B) the Debt Electors' New UA Common Stock, and (iii) Bank of America (or its assignee) shall receive the New UA Warrants, to be held in trust for the benefit of the Debt Electors (or their assignees) and distributed as described in Article VII.K of the Plan. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of all Class 2B Claims and in accordance with the terms in the Lock-Up Agreements, each Equity Elector shall receive, among other things, a Pro Rata distribution of (i) the Equity Electors' New UA Common Stock, (ii) the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) the Equity Elector Warrants;provided, however, that if any Equity Elector does not fund its required portion of the DIP Facility in accordance with the terms of that Facility and the DIP Order, such Equity Elector shall be deemed a Debt Elector for all purposes under the Plan and in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases and shall have no ability to cure such failure to fund its portion of the DIP Facility. On the Confirmation Date, Bank of America shall receive from the Reorganized Debtors, in accordance with the Lock-Up Agreements, a $1,000,000 Cash fee to be held in trust for the benefit of the Working Group and ENIC in consideration for their efforts in the consensual restructuring of the Debtors' obligations. Class 2B is impaired, and approval of the Plan by Holders of at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of Class 2B Claims is required for the Plan to be confirmed.
44
Class 2C—Other Secured Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 2C consists of all Secured Claims against UATC but does not include Bank Claims. A Secured Claim against UATC is: (i) a Claim held by any person or entity, including a judgment creditor, secured by a lien on any property in which UATC or its Estate has an interest, which lien is valid, perfected and enforceable under applicable law or by reason of a Final Order, and is not subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law, but only to the extent of (A) the value of such Secured Claim Holder's interest in any interest of UATC or its Estate in such property securing such Claim or (B) the amount subject to setoff, as applicable, as determined pursuant to Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; or (ii) a Claim Allowed under the Plan as a Secured Claim.
Under the Plan, on the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Class 2C Claim shall receive one of the following alternative treatments, at the election of UATC: (i) the legal, equitable and contractual rights to which such Claim entitles the Holder thereof shall be unaltered by the Plan; (ii) UA shall surrender all collateral securing such Claim to the Holder thereof, without representation or warranty by or recourse against UATC or New UATC; or (iii) such Claim will be otherwise treated in any other manner so that such Claim shall otherwise be rendered unimpaired pursuant to Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any default with respect to any Class 2C Claim that existed immediately prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases shall be deemed cured upon the Effective Date.
The legal, equitable and contractual rights of the Holders of Class 2C Claims are unaltered by the Plan. Because Class 2C is not impaired, the Holders of Class 2C Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Class 2C Claims are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.
Class 2D—UA Note Claim (Impaired)
Class 2D consists of the UA Note Claim against UATC. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, in full and complete satisfaction of the Class 2D Claim, UA, the Holder of the Allowed Class 2D Claim, shall receive the New UATC Common Stock.
Class 2E—Intercompany Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 2E consists of all Intercompany Claims against UATC. Under the Plan, on the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Class 2E Claim shall retain such Claim and the rights, interests, and obligations related thereto. Class 2E is not impaired, and the Holders of Class 2E Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. Therefore, the Holders of Claims in Class 2E are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.

Class 2F is impaired, and approval of the Plan by Holders of at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of Holders in Class 2F is required for the Plan to be confirmed.
45
Class 2G—Equity Interests (Impaired)
Class 2G consists of all Claims of Holders of Equity Interests in UATC. An Equity Interest means any equity interest, including, but not limited to, all issued, unissued, authorized or outstanding shares of stock (including Common Stock and Preferred Stock), together with any warrants, options or contract rights to purchase or acquire such interests at any time. On the Effective Date, the Holders of Class 2G Equity Interests shall neither receive any distributions nor retain any property under the Plan. All Common Stock issued before the Petition Date will be canceled. Class 2G is impaired, but because no distributions will be made to Holders of Class 2G Equity Interests nor will such Holders retain any property, such Holders are deemed to reject the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. Class 2G is not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.
Class 3A—Other Priority Claims (Unimpaired)
Class 3A consists of all Other Priority Claims against UAR accorded the priority and right of payment under Section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (including priority employee salary and wage Claims to the extent not paid prior to Confirmation pursuant to any first-day orders authorizing payment of Prepetition wage, salary, and benefits Claims), other than a Priority Tax Claim or an Administrative Expense Claim.

Any default with respect to any Class 3A Claim that existed immediately prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case shall be deemed cured upon the Effective Date. Class 3A is not impaired, and the Holders of Class 3A Claims are conclusively deemed to have accepted the Plan pursuant to Section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE III
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
A. Liquidation Analysis
Pursuant to Section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code (sometimes called the "best interests" test) the Bankruptcy Code requires that each Holder of an Impaired claim or Equity Interest either (a) accept the Plan or (b) receive or retain under the Plan property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the value such Holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on the Effective Date. The first step in meeting this test is to determine the dollar amount that would be generated from the hypothetical liquidation of the Debtors' assets and properties in the context of a liquidation in a Chapter 7 case. The gross amount of Cash available would be the sum of the proceeds from the disposition of the Debtors' assets and the Cash held by the Debtor at the time of the commencement of the Chapter 7 case. Such amount is reduced by the amount of any Claims secured by such assets, the costs and expenses of the liquidation, and such additional administrative expenses and priority Claims that may result from the termination of the Debtors' business and the use of Chapter 7 for the purposes of a hypothetical liquidation. Any remaining net cash would be allocated to creditors and shareholders in strict priority in accordance with Section 726 of the Bankruptcy Code.
A general summary of the assumptions used by the Debtors' management in preparing the liquidation analysis follows. The more specific assumptions are discussed below.
1. Estimate of Net Proceeds Estimates were made of the Cash proceeds that might be realized from the liquidation of the Debtors' assets. The Chapter 7 liquidation period is assumed to commence on December 28, 2000 and to average six months following the appointment of a Chapter 7 trustee. While some assets may be liquidated in less than six months, other assets may be more difficult to collect or sell, requiring a liquidation period
70
substantially longer than six months; this time would allow for the collection of receivables, sale of assets and wind-down of daily operations. Based on current market conditions and other theatre exhibitors' liquidity situations, it is assumed that the Debtors will be able to dispose of their business and other assets in multiple transactions, rather than dispose of their business operations as an entirety.
Wholly-owned real estate, leased theatre properties, leasehold improvements, and theatre fixtures and furniture account for a substantial portion of the Debtors' assets. The Chapter 7 liquidation value of the Debtors' theatre assets was assessed for each property individually based on an evaluation of historical cash flow performance, remaining lease terms and payment obligations, available real estate appraisals, and the overall marketability of the asset. Theatre assets with declining historical and projected future cash flow performance near a break-even or unprofitable level were assumed to generate no value in a Chapter 7 liquidation, For other non-theatre assets, liquidation values were assessed for general Classes by estimating the percentage recoveries that the Debtors might achieve through their disposition.
The estimation of net proceeds available from the liquidation of the Debtors' theatre assets assumes that (a) there is a ready market for theatre properties located in strategic geographic regions, (b) a willing buyer exists for the Debtors' performing theatres, and (c) the Debtors are successful in completing the sale of targeted Project Clean-Up properties at estimated "pricepoints." It is important to note, however, that the theatre industry as a whole is over-leveraged and over-saturated with movie theatre screens, thus severely limiting potential sale opportunities for the Debtors' theatre properties. With respect to the Debtors' leased properties, the Liquidation Analysis assumes that cash-flow positive theatres with favorable lease terms are either sold or reverted back to landlords. Leased theatre properties with minimal or negative cash flow and/or unfavorable lease terms are assumed to generate no value in a Chapter 7 liquidation while at the same time generating incremental lease rejection Claims. The treatment of leased theatre properties in the liquidation analysis similarly assumes that there is a ready market for theatre properties with favorable lease terms and cash flow prospects.
2. Estimate of Costs The Debtors' costs of liquidation under Chapter 7 would include the fees payable to a Chapter 7 trustee, as well as those that might be payable to attorneys and other professionals that such a trustee may engage. Further, costs of liquidation would include any obligations and unpaid expenses incurred by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases and allowed in the Chapter 7 case, such as trade obligations, compensation for attorneys, financial advisors, appraisers, accountants and other professionals, and costs and expenses of members of any statutory committee of unsecured creditors appointed by the United States Trustee pursuant to Section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code and any other committee so appointed.
3. Distribution of Net Proceeds Under the Absolute Priority Rule The foregoing postpetition claims, costs, expenses, fees and such other Claims that may arise in a Chapter 7 liquidation case would be paid in full from the liquidation proceeds before the balance of those proceeds would be made available to pay prepetition priority and unsecured Claims. Under the absolute priority rule, no junior creditor may receive any distribution until all senior creditors are paid in full, and no equity holder would receive any distribution until all creditors are paid in full.The Debtors believe that in a Chapter 7 case, Holders of Allowed Unsecured Claims against, and Equity Interests in, UA and UATC would receive no distributions of any liquidation proceeds.
71
After consideration of the effects that a Chapter 7 liquidation would have on the ultimate proceeds available for distribution to creditors as compared to a Chapter 11 case, including (a) the increased costs and expenses of a liquidation under Chapter 7 arising from fees payable to a bankruptcy trustee and the trustee's professional advisors, (b) the erosion in value of assets in a Chapter 7 case in the context of the expeditious liquidation required under Chapter 7 and the "forced sale" atmosphere that would prevail, and (c) substantially ,increased Claims which would be satisfied on a priority basis,the Debtors have determined, as summarized on the following chart, that Confirmation of the Plan will provide each creditor and equity holder with a recovery that is equal to or greater than it would receive pursuant to a liquidation of the Debtors under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

- The estimated recovery assumes par value for the Restructured Bank Credit Facility, however, that assumption should not be considered an indication of the trading value for the Restructured Bank Credit Facility in the secondary market, which would be based upon a number of factors including the level of interest rates, general economic conditions, and actual financial performance of the Debtors compared to projected results.

includes estimated lease rejection claims. Subject to reduction in accordance with Articles III.C.6 and 1.B.26 of the Plan.
- ***
- Although Holders of Class 1E Claims will not receive any distribution directly from the Debtors, Bank of America, on behalf of the Debt Electors, and as described in Article VII.K. of the Plan, shall distribute the New UA Warrants to the Subordinated Note Indenture Trustee or other designated agent of the Holders of Allowed Class 1E Claims, to be distributed by said Trustee or agent on a Pro Rata basis to such Holders of Allowed Class 1E Claims, which would in effect result in the stated 1.22% projected recovery, which is not included in the projected recovery of Class 1B.
Moreover, the Debtors believe that the value of the distributions from the liquidation proceeds to each Class of Allowed Claims in a Chapter 7 case would be the same or less than the value of distributions under the Plan because (1) such distributions in a Chapter 7 case may not occur for a substantial period of time and (2) the amount of landlord lease rejection claims would be significantly higher in a Chapter 7 liquidation. In this regard, it is possible that a distribution of the proceeds of the liquidation could be delayed for a year or more after the completion of such liquidation in order to resolve the Claims and prepare for distributions. In the event litigation were necessary to resolve Claims asserted in the Chapter 7 case, the delay could be further prolonged and administrative expenses further increased. The effects of this delay on the value of distributions under the hypothetical liquidation have not been considered
4. Liquidation Analysis
The Debtors' Liquidation Analysis is an estimate of the proceeds that may be generated as a result of a hypothetical liquidation of the Debtors' assets under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. Underlying the Liquidation Analysis are a number of estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant economic, competitive and operational uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Debtors or a Chapter 7 trustee. Additionally, various liquidation decisions upon which certain assumptions are based are subject to change. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the assumptions and estimates employed in determining the liquidation values of the Debtors' assets will result in an accurate estimate of the proceeds that would be realized were United Artists to undergo an actual liquidation. The Liquidation Analysis does not include liabilities that may arise as a result of litigation, certain new tax assessments, landlord lease rejection Claims, employee severance Claims, or other potential Claims. No value was assigned to additional proceeds which might result from the sale of certain items with intangible value. The Liquidation Analysis also does not include potential recoveries from avoidance actions. Therefore, the actual liquidation value of the Debtors could vary materially from the estimates provided herein. The Liquidation Analysis set forth below was based on the estimated values of United Artists' assets as of December 28, 2000. These values have not been subject to any review, compilation or audit by any independent accounting firm.

5. Notes to Liquidation Analysis
- a.
- Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash consists of all cash in banks or operating accounts and liquid investments with maturities of three months or less and is assumed to be fully recoverable.
- b.
- Accounts and Notes Receivable. Accounts and notes receivable consist of receivables from United Artists' Satellite Theatre Network business customers and other miscellaneous receivables related to the sale of the Debtors' interests in the Far East and real estate held by the Staten Theatre Group partnership. The recovery of accounts and notes receivable is based on management's estimate of collection, given such factors as the aging and historical collection patterns of the receivable and the effect of the liquidation on the Debtors' ability to collect outstanding accounts and notes receivable.
74
- c.
- Inventories. Inventories are comprised of concessions products, carpeting, SDDS units, and other uninstalled theatre-related equipment. The overall inventory recovery is net of costs incurred to liquidate the inventories.
- d.
- Prepaid Expenses. Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist primarily of miscellaneous prepaid expenses such as rent and other occupancy costs, insurance, taxes and deposits. The liquidation value of these prepaid expenses assumes that trade vendors and landlords offset the prepaid amounts against the amounts payable to the Debtors.
- e.
- Equity Investment in Affiliates. Equity investment in affiliates includes the Debtors' ownership interest in non-Debtor affiliated entities. The recovery of 20% of the Debtors' equity investment in these affiliates is based on management's estimate of realizable value in conjunction with a sale of the Debtors' ownership interests in the context of a liquidation.
- f.
- Net Property, Plant and Equipment and Lease Acquisition Costs. Property Plant and Equipment includes owned land, buildings, machinery and equipment, and leasehold improvements related primarily to existing theatre properties. For all assets, liquidation values were assessed for general classes of assets by estimating the percentage recoveries that the Debtors might achieve through their disposition. There is a recovery on leasehold improvements only to the extent that management estimated that an interested third-party purchaser would be willing to pay some premium in conjunction with the assumption of the underlying lease. There is no recovery of leasehold improvements to other leased properties because such improvements will revert to the lessor upon the discontinuation of the leases, or, in the case of an assignable lease, will inure to the benefit of the assignees of the leases. These estimated liquidation values could vary dramatically from the amounts that might be recovered in an actual Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation.
- g.
- Other Assets. Other assets primarily include non-current assets, which are deferred financing costs and other miscellaneous assets. These assets are assumed to have no value in a liquidation. Although the liquidation of United Artists' tradename and other intangible assets may have value in a liquidation, no liquidation proceeds were assumed from the sale of goodwill or other intangible assets due to the uncertainty of realizable value.
- h.
- Trustee and Professional Fees. Trustee fees are estimated at 3% of gross liquidation proceeds. Professional fees represent the costs of a Chapter 7 case related to attorneys, accountants, appraisers and other professionals retained by the trustee. Based on management review of the nature of these costs and the outcomes of similar liquidations, fees were estimated to average approximately $1 million per month for six months during the liquidation period. No Priority Claims other than trustee and Professional fees are assumed.
- i.
- Wind-Down Costs. Wind-down costs consist of corporate overhead, severance, stay bonuses, and other related costs to be incurred during the Chapter 7 liquidation period. Management assumes that the liquidation would occur over a nine-month period and that such expenses, costs and overhead would decrease over time.
- j.
- Revolver, Term Loan, and Letters of Credit. The Revolver, Term Loan, and Letters of Credit, which are part of the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, are secured by, among other things, a pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the following direct or indirect subsidiaries of United Artists; UAR; UAP I; UAP II; UAR; UATC; UAB; UAB II; Tallthe; UAIPH; UAPH II; UAIMC; BPTC; UPDC; UATA; and UAPR. The Revolver, Term Loan, and Letters of Credit are also secured by mortgages on approximately thirty-one theatres owned by UATC, UAR, and UAP I, and by substantially all of the personal property of UA, UATC, UAR, UAP I, and UAP II. The obligations under the Revolver, Term Loan, and Letters of Credit are guaranteed

6. Valuation Methodology
In order to comply with the "best interests" test as well as to determine the relative distributions to parties in interest under the Plan, an estimated reorganization value (the "Reorganization Value") has been prepared by Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin Capital ("Houlihan Lokey"), financial advisors to the Debtors. Houlihan Lokey has determined the Reorganization Value based on an assumed Effective Date of December 28, 2000 giving effect to the implementation of the Plan.
In reaching its conclusions on Reorganization Value, Houlihan Lokey analyzed the Debtors' current operations and projections, as well as the industry in which the Debtors compete. Among other analyses, Houlihan Lokey (a) reviewed certain historical financial information of the Debtors, (b) reviewed certain internal operating reports, including management-prepared financial projections and analyses, (c) assisted in the creation of updated financial projections, (d) discussed historical and projected financial performance with senior management, (e) reviewed industry trends and operating statistics, (f) analyzed the capital structures, financial performance, and market valuations of other competitors in the theatre industry, (g) analyzed the capital structures and betas of companies in industries with operational dynamics similar to those of the Debtors, and (h) prepared such other analyses as Houlihan Lokey deemed necessary and appropriate.
Houlihan Lokey relied on the accuracy and reasonableness of the historical financial information and projection assumptions provided by the Debtors' management. Houlihan Lokey's valuation is based on the assumption that the operating results anticipated by management can be achieved in all material respects, including attendance levels, revenue growth, and improvements in operating margins, earnings, and cash flow. To the extent that the valuation is dependent upon the Debtors' achievement of the projections contained in the Disclosure Statement, the valuation should be considered speculative.
In addition to relying on management's projection assumptions, Houlihan Lokey's valuation analysis is based on a number of assumptions including, but not limited to: (a) a successful and timely reorganization of the Debtors' capital structure; (b) an improvement in current market conditions through the Effective Date as well as the forecast period for the operating projections; (c) the Plan becoming effective in accordance with its proposed terms; and (d) the continuity of present operating management of the Debtors following consummation of the Plan. Houlihan Lokey's valuation analysis further assumes that the Debtors (i) are successful in disposing of its Project Clean-Up theatres in accordance with the time line reflected in the operating projections and (ii) have the financial flexibility to invest capital in upgrading its existing theatre base to remain competitive.
Two methodologies were used to derive the value of Reorganized Debtors based on the projections: (a) a comparison of the company and its current and historical operating performance to
76
the public market values of companies deemed comparable to the Debtors; and (b) a calculation of the present value of free cash flows (including a terminal value, defined herein) based on a set of projections (the "Projections") created by the Debtors' senior management and Houlihan Lokey.
The market-based approach involves: (a) identifying a group of publicly traded companies whose businesses are comparable to those of the Debtors (the "Comparable Companies"); (b) calculating capitalization multiples, which are ratios based on (i) the enterprise value (calculated as Total Market Value of Equity plus Total Debt less Cash) of the Comparable Companies and (ii) the financial results of these companies; and (c) applying a range of capitalization multiples to the Debtors' recent financial results to arrive at an implied value range for the Debtors.
The discounted cash flow approach involves the analysis of the unleveraged free cash flows that the Debtors are expected to generate based on the Projections. These cash flows, in conjunction with an estimated value of the Company at the end of the projected period (the "Terminal Value"), are discounted to the Effective Date at the Debtors' post-restructuring weighted average cost of capital in order to determine the Debtors' enterprise value.
In calculating the Debtors' weighted average cost of capital, Houlihan Lokey applied a beta that it believed was appropriate given the Debtors' risk profile. The betas of other theatre exhibitors were deemed meaningless as a result of the over leveraged nature of the exhibitor industry; thus, the betas of Comparable Companies were not considered when Houlihan Lokey determined an appropriate beta for the Debtors. Consequently, Houlihan Lokey utilized betas from companies that, although not in the exhibitor industry, shared key operating characteristics with the Debtors. These characteristics include: (a) the generation of most revenues on a cash-basis rather than a receivables-basis; (b) peak sales occurring during a particular season, holidays, and/or weekends; (c) the service-oriented rather than manufacturing-oriented business; (d) much of the fixed assets are not owned; and (e) an entertainment sector business.
Based on the analysis performed, Houlihan Lokey estimates the Reorganization Value as of December 28, 2000 to be from $360 million to $400 million, with a mid-point of $380 million. Based on this range and the total level of indebtedness outlined in the Plan ($260 million), Houlihan Lokey estimates an equity value range (including convertible preferred stock) of approximately $100 million to $140 million with a mid-point value of $120 million.
The Reorganization Value represents the going concern value of the Debtors on a deleveraged basis, giving effect to the implementation of the Plan. As such, the Reorganization Value is not a prediction of the future trading prices of securities of the Reorganized Debtors. The Reorganization Value does not represent a liquidation value of the Debtors or their assets; a Liquidation Analysis has been prepared and provided separately in Article III.A.4 of the Disclosure Statement. This valuation also does not represent an appraisal of the Debtors' assets.
B. Projections
1. Responsibility for and Purpose of the Projections
As a condition to confirmation of a plan, the Bankruptcy Code requires, among other things, that the bankruptcy court determine that the plan is "feasible," i.e., that Confirmation is not likely to be followed by a liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization of the debtor. In connection with the development of the Plan, and for purposes of determining whether the Plan satisfies feasibility standards, the Debtors' management has, through the development of financial projections (the "Projections"), analyzed the ability of the Debtors to meet their obligations under the Plan to maintain sufficient liquidity and capital resources to conduct its business. The Projections were also prepared to assist each Holder of a Claim entitled to vote under the Plan (see Article III of the Disclosure Statement) in determining whether to accept or reject the Plan.
77
The Projections should be read in conjunction with the assumptions, qualifications and footnotes to tables containing the Projections set forth herein, the historical consolidated financial information (including the notes and schedules thereto) and the other information set forth in UA's and UATC's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended 1999, and UA's and UATC's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 30, 2000 and June 29, 2000 respectively. The Projections were prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable and applied in a manner consistent with past practice. Most of the assumptions about the operations of the business after the assumed Effective Date which are utilized in the Projections were prepared in August, 2000 and were based, in part, on economic, competitive, and general business conditions prevailing at the time. While as of the date of this Disclosure Statement such conditions have not materially changed, any future changes in these conditions may materially impact the ability of the Debtors to achieve the Projections.
THE PROJECTIONS WERE NOT PREPARED WITH A VIEW TOWARDS COMPLYING WITH THE GUIDELINES FOR PROSPECTIVE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS. THE DEBTORS' INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT HAS NEITHER COMPILED NOR EXAMINED THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTIVE FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO DETERMINE THE REASONABLENESS THEREOF AND, ACCORDINGLY, HAS NOT EXPRESSED AN OPINION OR ANY OTHER FORM OF ASSURANCE WITH RESPECT THERETO.
THE DEBTORS DO NOT, AS A MATTER OF COURSE, PUBLISH PROJECTIONS OF THEIR ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL POSITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OR CASH FLOWS. ACCORDINGLY, THE DEBTORS DO NOT INTEND, AND DISCLAIM ANY OBLIGATION, TO (A) FURNISH UPDATED PROJECTIONS TO HOLDERS OF CLAIMS OR EQUITY INTERESTS PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OR TO HOLDERS OF NEW COMMON STOCK OR ANY OTHER PARTY AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE, (B) INCLUDE SUCH UPDATED INFORMATION IN ANY DOCUMENTS THAT MAY BE REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE SEC, OR (C) OTHERWISE MAKE SUCH UPDATED INFORMATION PUBLICLY AVAILABLE.
THE PROJECTIONS PROVIDED IN THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT HAVE BEEN PREPARED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE DEBTORS' MANAGEMENT. THESE PROJECTIONS, WHILE PRESENTED WITH NUMERICAL SPECIFICITY, ARE NECESSARILY BASED ON A VARIETY OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS WHICH, THOUGH CONSIDERED REASONABLE BY MANAGEMENT, MAY NOT BE REALIZED, AND ARE INHERENTLY SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS, ECONOMIC AND COMPETITIVE UNCERTAINTIES AND CONTINGENCIES, MANY OF WHICH ARE BEYOND THE DEBTORS' CONTROL. THE DEBTORS CAUTION THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS CAN BE MADE AS TO THE ACCURACY OF THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS OR TO THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS' ABILITY TO ACHIEVE THE PROJECTED RESULTS. SOME ASSUMPTIONS INEVITABLY WILL NOT MATERIALIZE. FURTHER, EVENTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES OCCURRING SUBSEQUENT TO THE DATE ON WHICH THESE PROJECTIONS WERE PREPARED MAY BE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE ASSUMED OR, ALTERNATIVELY, MAY HAVE BEEN UNANTICIPATED, AND THUS THE OCCURRENCE OF THESE EVENTS MAY AFFECT FINANCIAL RESULTS IN A MATERIAL AND POSSIBLY ADVERSE MANNER. THE PROJECTIONS, THEREFORE, MAY NOT BE RELIED UPON AS A GUARANTY OR OTHER ASSURANCE OF THE ACTUAL RESULTS THAT WILL OCCUR.
FINALLY, THE FOLLOWING PROJECTIONS INCLUDE ASSUMPTIONS AS TO THE ENTERPRISE VALUE OF THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS, THE FAIR VALUE OF ITS ASSETS AND ITS ACTUAL LIABILITIES AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE. THE REORGANIZED DEBTORS WILL BE REQUIRED TO MAKE SUCH ESTIMATIONS AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE. SUCH DETERMINATION WILL BE BASED UPON THE FAIR VALUES AS OF THAT DATE, WHICH
78
COULD BE MATERIALLY GREATER OR LOWER THAN THE VALUES ASSUMED IN THE FOREGOING ESTIMATES.
2. Summary of Significant Assumptions
The Debtors have developed the Projections (summarized below) to assist both creditors and equity holders in their evaluation of the Plan and to analyze its feasibility.The Projections are based upon a number of significant assumptions described below. Actual operating results and values may and will vary from those projected.
- a.
- Fiscal Years. The Debtors' fiscal year ends on the Thursday closest to December 31 of each year. Any reference to "Fiscal" immediately followed by a specific year means the 52 or 53 week period ending on the Thursday closest to December 31 of such year.
- b.
- Plan Terms and Consummation. The Projections assume an Effective Date of December 28, 2000 with Allowed Claims and Equity Interests treated in accordance with the treatment provided in the Plan with respect to such Allowed Claims and Equity Interests. If consummation of the Plan does not occur prior to December 31, 2000, there is no guarantee that, among other things, trade creditors (e.g., the film studios) will support the Debtors as projected. A material reduction in the Debtors' access to film or trade credit, or a complete cessation of film shipment to the Debtors, would materially impact the Debtors' ability to achieve the projected results. Further, if the Effective Date does not occur prior to December 31, 2000, additional bankruptcy-related expenses will be incurred until such time as a new plan of reorganization is confirmed. These expenses could significantly impact the Debtors' results of operations and cash flows.
- c.
- Assumptions Preceding the Effective Date. As a basis for the Projections, management has estimated the operating results for the period of time leading up to the Effective Date. Specifically, it has been assumed that during the Chapter 11 Cases, film studios and distributors will continue to provide the Debtors with films and trade creditors will continue to provide the Debtors with goods on customary terms and credit.
- d.
- Theatre Divestiture Program. The Debtors have been implementing Project Clean-Up, a theatre divestiture program, whereby the Debtors have sold or closed, or intend to sell or close, 199 theatres containing 960 screens (of which 181 theatres and 855 screens have been closed or sold as of the Petition Date). Sales and closures are expected to improve EBITDA going forward. In addition, during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors plan to evaluate the closure, sale, and/or lease renegotiation of additional underperforming theatres and properties not currently encompassed by first-day motions to reject certain leases.
- e.
- Screens per Theatre. The Debtors intend to improve both their profitability and the value of their asset base by increasing the average number of movie screens per theatre. The Debtors expect to achieve this goal by divesting smaller theatres and investing capital, in the form of screen expansions and upgrades, into several of its profitable theatres. The Debtors predict that they will have an average of 8.0 screens per theatre by 2004 (1,583 screens across 197 theatres) relative to 6.9 screens per theatre at the end of fiscal 1999 (2,108 screens across 304 theatres).
- f.
- General Economic Conditions. The Projections were prepared assuming that economic conditions in the markets served by the Debtors do not differ significantly over the next four years from current economic conditions. Inflation in revenues and costs are assumed to remain relatively low.
- g.
- Revenues. Total net revenues can be broken down into (i) net box office receipts (admissions less film expenses), (ii) net concession proceeds (concession sales less cost of goods sold), and
79
(iii) other net revenues (net slide advertising proceeds, net satellite theatre proceeds, and miscellaneous revenues). The Debtors' ability to achieve its projected revenue levels assumes that (a) the Debtors complete the targeted disposal/sale of Project Clean-Up theatres prior to the Effective Date, (b) the Debtors have the financial flexibility to make strategic capital investments in upgrading its existing theatre base, and (c) there will be no significant after-effect on the Debtors from the Chapter 11 reorganization process with respect to film studios and trade creditors.
- (i)
- Net Box Office Receipts. Admissions are expected to decrease by 9.5% and 8.2% in fiscal years ("FY") 2000 and 2001, respectively, and are expected to grow at an annual rate of 3.5% from FY 2001 to FY 2004. Although projected increases in average ticket prices during FY 2000 and FY 2001 should serve to increase admissions, a meaningful decline in attendance (12.6% in FY 2000 and 10.0% in FY 2001) associated with the Debtors' declining theatre base (primarily resulting from Project Clean-Up and other scheduled divestitures) is driving the overall decline in admissions. Annual ticket price increases of 2.0% and annual attendance growth of 1.5% from FY 2002 to FY 2004 provide for admissions growth during those periods. Film licensing and advertising expenses are assumed to remain constant at 55.4% of admissions. Given the overall increase in admissions from FY 2001 to FY 2004 and the constancy of film expenses, net box office receipts are projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of approximately 3.5%.
- (ii)
- Net Concession Proceeds. Concession sales are expected to decrease by 7.2% and 6.4% in FY 2000 and FY 2001, respectively, but are expected to grow by 4.5% annually from FY 2002 to FY 2004. Although average concessions per capita is expected to increase during FY 2000 and FY 2001, the aforementioned decline in attendance levels is expected to result in an overall decline in concession sales. Concession per capita growth of 3.0% annually and an annual increase in attendance levels of 1.5% from FY2002 to FY2004 provide for concession sales growth during those periods. Cost of goods sold ("COGS"), stated as a percentage of concession sales, are projected to increase 0.4% annually (as a percentage of revenues) from FY 2001 to FY 2004.
- (iii)
- Other Net Revenues. Net slide advertising revenues and net satellite theatre revenues are expected to grow 5.0% per year through FY 2004. Miscellaneous revenues are assumed to grow at a 1.0% annual rate through FY 2004.
- h.
- Operating Expenses. Operating expenses are comprised of the following key categories: (i) salaries and personnel expenses; (ii) advertising expenses; (iii) repairs, supplies and utilities; (iv) other operating expenses (travel & entertainment, pre-opening costs, insurance, and miscellaneous operating expenses); and (v) rent (rent, escalating rent, percentage rent and common area maintenance charges). Operating expenses in categories (i) through (iv) are expected to increase at an annual rate of 2.0% (as a percentage of admissions) rate through FY 2004. Total rent expenses are expected to decline in FY 2000 and 2001 as the Debtors dispose of underperforming properties as part of Project Clean-Up, thus decreasing the Debtors' overall rent/lease obligations. Rent is assumed to remain constant after the Effective Date.
- i.
- General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses are projected to decline in FY 2000 and FY 2001 as a percentage of total revenue due primarily to the impact of (i) the closure of unprofitable theatres and (ii) reductions in corporate overhead. General and administrative expenses are assumed to remain constant at 3.8% of total revenue from FY2002 to FY2004.
- j.
- Income Taxes. The Projections assume that, upon consummation, the Reorganized Debtors will not have the benefit of any net operating loss carry-forwards. The Projections also assume

5. Notes to Pro-Forma Reorganized Balance Sheet
a. Adjustments result from the refinancing of obligations under the DIP Facility with the Post-Confirmation Restructured Bank Credit Facility. While as of the date of the Disclosure Statement the Debtors estimate that there will be no outstanding indebtedness under the DIP Facility as of December 28, 2000, the amount of actual indebtedness under the DIP Facility as of the Effective Date could differ materially as a result of, among other things, changes in business and general economic conditions, the competitive environment in which the Debtors operate, and the terms of the Debtors' film licensing arrangement with film studios. The Debtors estimate a $2 million cash charge associated with the refinancing of the DIP Facility upon the Effective Date.
83
b. The Plan provides for, among other things, the payment of $2.5 million to Holders of General Unsecured Claims.
c. The Plan provides for, among other things, a deleveraging of the Debtors through the "exchange" of all Bank Claims for approximately $252.2 million of Restructured Bank Credit Note Interests, $57,000,000 in New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, 10,000,000 shares of New UA Common Stock, 3,750,000 Equity Elector Warrants, and the New UA Warrants (to be distributed as described in the Plan). The Adjustments reflect the cancellation of the Bank Claims and the Subordinated Notes and the issuance of new securities in accordance with the Plan. "Other Assets" has been adjusted to "write-off' all remaining deferred financing fees related to the issuance of the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility and the Subordinated Notes.
d. The Debtors propose to account for the reorganization and the related transactions using the principles of "fresh start" accounting as required by Statement of Position 90-7 ("SOP 90-7") issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "AICPA"). The Debtors have estimated a range of reorganization value, between $360 million and $400 million. For purposes of determining reorganization value, the Debtors have used the midpoint of that range ($380 million), $65 million of which value is attributable to shareholder's equity (including but not limited to the New UA Common Stock). In accordance with SOP 90-7, the reorganization value has been allocated to specific tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities. The unallocated portion of the reorganization value is classified as Reorganization Value in Excess of Book and is amortized over four years. For the purposes of the Balance Sheet, book values have been assumed to equal fair values except for specific items for which quantifiable data is currently available. The Debtors are currently evaluating the value of various assets, including certain of their fixed assets and leased theatre properties, which may lead to additional pro forma adjustments to book values and result in a different Reorganization Value in Excess of Book as of the Effective Date. The value of shareholders' equity in the fresh start balance sheet is not an estimate of and does not necessary reflect the public market trading value after Confirmation of the New UA Common Stock, Equity Elector Warrants, the New UA Convertible Preferred Warrants, or the New UA Warrants, which value is subject to many uncertainties and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Debtors do not make any representation as to the public market trading value of any securities to be issued pursuant to the Plan.

ARTICLE IV
PROCEDURES FOR TREATMENT OF DISPUTED,
CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS
A. Prosecution of Objections to Claims
After the ConfirmationDate, the Debtors andthe ReorganizedDebtors shall have the exclusive authority to File, settle, compromise, withdraw or litigate to judgment, any objections to Claims. From and after the Confirmation Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors also reserve the right to resolve any Disputed Claims outside the Bankruptcy Court under applicable governing law.
B. Estimation of Claims
The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may, at any time, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claimpursuant to Section 502(c) ofthe Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors previously have objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount will constitute either the allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximumlimitation on such Claim, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate payment on such Claim. All of the aforementioned Claims objection, estimation and resolution procedures are cumulative and not necessarily exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
C. Payments and Distributions on Disputed Claims
Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, except as otherwise agreed by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in their sole discretion, no partial payments and no partial distributions will be made with respect to a Disputed Claim until the resolution of such dispute by settlement or Final Order. In accordance with Article VI.A.1 of the Plan , as soon as reasonably practicable after a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, the Holder of such Allowed Claim will receive all payments and distributions to which such Holder is then entitled under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Person or Entity who holds both an Allowed Claim(s) and a Disputed Claim(s) will receive the appropriate payment or distribution on the Allowed Claim(s), although, except as otherwise agreed by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors in their sole discretion, no payment or distribution will be made on the Disputed Claim(s) until such dispute is resolved by settlement or Final Order. In the event there are Disputed Claims requiring adjudication and resolution, the Debtors reserve the right, or upon order of the Court, to establish appropriate reserves for potential payment of such Claims.
D. Allowance of Claims and Interests
Except as expressly provided in the Plan (including, but not limited to, the treatment ofBank Claims and Intercompany Claims as deemed Allowed Claims) or any order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), no Claim or Equity Interest shall be deemed Allowed, unless and until such Claim or Equity Interest is deemed Allowed under the Bankruptcy Code or by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or the Bankruptcy Court enters a Final Order in the Chapter 11 Cases allowing such Claim or Equity Interest. Except as expressly
88
provided in the Plan or any order entered in the Chapter 11 Cases prior to the Effective Date (including the Confirmation Order), the Reorganized Debtors after Confirmation will have and retain any and all rights and defenses the Debtors had with respect to any Claim or Equity Interest as of the date the appropriate Debtor Filed its petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, including the Causes of Action referenced in Article X.D of the Plan. All Claims of any entity that owes money to the Debtors shall be disallowed unless and until such entity pays the amount it owes the Debtors in full. Any objection to an Administrative Claim, Priority Claim or Secured Claim must be Filed and served within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the Effective Date.
E. Controversy Concerning Impairment
If a controversy arises as to whether any Claims or Equity Interests, or any Class of Claims or Equity Interests, are Impaired under the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court shall, after notice and a hearing, determine such controversy before the Confirmation Date.
ARTICLE V
TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS
AND UNEXPIRED LEASES
A. Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases
1. Generally The Debtors will determine which of their executory contracts should be assumed, assumed and assigned, or rejected by analyzing all information pertinent to that determination including, but not limited to, the costs associated with continuing or rejecting their executory contracts and the benefits to the Estates against which such costs must be compared.

89
unexpired leases affected thereby. Each contract or lease listed on the List of Contracts and Leases shall be assumed, assumed and assigned, or rejected only to the extent that such contract or lease constitutes an executory contract or unexpired lease. Listing a contract or lease on the List of Contracts and Leases shall not constitute an admission by a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor that such contract or lease (including any related agreements) is in fact an executory contract or unexpired lease or that a Debtor or Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. The assumption pursuant to the Plan of an executory contract or unexpired lease, and all of the obligations thereunder, by a Reorganized Debtor shall constitute the Reorganized Debtor's adequate assurance that it will perform under such executory contract or unexpired lease in the future under 11 USC. § 365(b)(l)(C).

Any party to such a lease that fails to File a written objection to such proposed encumbrance shall be deemed to have consented affirmatively and unconditionally to both (a) the grant of a security interest, mortgage, or other lien in such lease and(b) the recording or other act to perfect such security interest, mortgage, or other lien, or thereafter be forever prohibited and barred from objecting to such encumbrance.

Any payments made pursuant to and in accordance with Article VI.A.4 ofthe Plan will be deemed made on the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the grant by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors of a security interest, mortgage, or other lien in any unexpired lease or executory contract assumed pursuant to Article VI of the Plan, nor the recording or other act required for the perfection thereof, shall constitute a breach or other default under such lease or other applicable law.

D. Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases
If the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to Article VI of the Plan gives rise to a Claim by the other party or parties to such contract or lease, such Claim shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their respective successors, estates, and property, unless (1) a proof of Claim is Filed with the Bankruptcy Court and actually received by the respective Reorganized Debtors on or before the later of: (a) thirty (30) days after the Effective Date; (b) thirty (30) days after the entry of a Final Order approving such rejection; or (c) solely with respect to Claims of non-Debtor parties to such contracts or leases affected thereby, thirty (30) days after the date of any amendment to the List of Contracts and Leases that results in such rejection; or (2) otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court or otherwise provided for in the Plan.

G. Sources of Cash for Plan Distribution
All Cash necessary for the Reorganized Debtors to make payments pursuant to the Plan shall be obtained from existing Cash balances, the operations of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, or post-Confirmation borrowing under other available facilities of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, including, but not limited to, the DIP Facility and the Exit Facility. The Reorganized Debtors may also make such payments using Cash received from its direct and indirect subsidiaries through the Reorganized Debtors' consolidated cash management operated by New UATC and from advances or dividends from such subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.
H. Securities Distributed in Accordance with Plan and Applicability of Securities Laws
The New UA Common Stock, the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Equity Elector Warrants, the New UA Warrants, Management Stock Options, and the New UATC Common Stock (sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Securities") will be created and issued in accordance with the Plan. Such Securities are described generally below, and such descriptions are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions (including definitions of certain terms therein) contained in New UA's and New UATC's New Certificate of Incorporation and by-laws, the Certificate of Designations of the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Equity Elector Warrants, the New UA Warrants, the Management Stock Options, and a New UA Common Stock stockholders' agreement, the final negotiation and execution of which are not yet complete.
The holders of New UA Common Stock of UATC will be entitled to one vote per share for each share of record on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Subject to preferential rights with respect to any series of preferred stock, holders of New UA Common Stock will be entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by New UA's board of directors on the New UA Common Stock out of funds legally available therefor. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of New UA, the holders of New UA Common Stock, subject to preferential rights with respect to any series of preferred stock, will be entitled to share equally and ratably in all remaining assets and funds of New UA. The holders of New UA Common Stock will have no preemptive, subscription, conversion or cumulative voting rights and will not be subject to future calls or assessments by New UA. All shares of New UA Common Stock to be issued under the Plan will be fully paid and nonassessable.
2. New UA Convertible Preferred Stock.
(a) Conversion. The New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into New UA Common Stock at any time or from time to time, at the option of the holder of such Preferred
109
Stock;provided,however, each outstanding share of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into New UA Common Stock at the conversion price then in effect upon the closing of an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, covering the offering and sale of the New UA Common Stock for the account of New UA in which the aggregate gross proceeds received by New UA equals or exceeds an amount yet to be determined and in which the public offering price per share equals or exceeds the conversion price in effect immediately prior to the closing of such public offering.
(b) Dividends. The holders of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive cash dividends.
(c) Distributions upon Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the affairs of New UA, subject to the prior preferences and other rights of any senior stock, but before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of junior stock, the holders of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to be paid an amount equal to $6.25 (as may be adjusted for any recapitalizations, stock combinations, stock dividends, stock splits and the like) in respect of each outstanding share of such Preferred Stock as of the date of such liquidation or dissolution or such other winding up.
(d) Adjustments. Each share of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be converted into a number of shares of New UA Common Stock determined by dividing (i) $6.25, by (ii) the conversion price in effect on the conversion date (the "Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price at which shares of New UA Common Stock will initially be issuable upon conversion of the shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be $6.25. The Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment as follows:
(i) If New UA issues any New UA Common Stock other than excluded stock (e.g., shares of New UA Common Stock issued to employees) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price then in effect immediately prior to such issuance, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to each such issuance will immediately (except as otherwise provided for in the Certificate of Designations of the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock) be reduced to the price determined by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (1) the number of shares of New UA Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance and (2) the consideration, if any, received by New UA upon such issuance, by (B) the total of shares of New UA Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issuance.
(ii) If New UA (A) declares a dividend or makes a distribution on its New UA Common Stock in shares of its New UA Common Stock, (B) subdivides or reclassifies the outstanding shares of New UA Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or(C) combines or reclassifies the outstanding New UA Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification will be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion after such date will be entitled to receive the number of shares of New UA Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive had such New UA Convertible Preferred Stock been converted immediately prior to such date. Successive adjustments in the Conversion Price will be made whenever any event specified above occurs.
(iii) In the event New UA fixes a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of its New UA Common Stock (A) of shares of any class other than its New UA Common Stock, (B) of evidence of indebtedness of New UA or any subsidiary of New UA, (C) of assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions, and certain other dividends or
110
distributions), or (D) of rights or warrants (excluding those referred to in Article V.G.2.(a) of the Plan), then and in each such case, the holders of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will receive, at the time of distribution, the same distribution that they would have received had their New UA Convertible Preferred Stock been converted into New UA Common Stock immediately prior to the date of such event.
(iv) In the event of any consolidation with or merger of New UA with or into another corporation, or in case of any sale, lease or conveyance to another corporation of the assets of New UA as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, each share of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will, after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, be convertible into the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which the New UA Common Stock issuable (at the time of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance) upon conversion of such share of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance; and in any such case, if necessary, the rights and interests of the holders of the shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the conversion of the shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock.
(e) Voting Rights. In addition to any special voting rights provided in the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock's Certificate of Designations and by applicable law, the holders of shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote upon all matters upon which holders of the New UA Common Stock have the right to vote, and will be entitled to vote the number of shares equal to the largest number of full shares of New UA Common Stock into which such shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock could be converted at the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters, or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited, such votes to be counted together with all other shares of capital stock having general voting powers and not separately as a class. In all cases where the holders of shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to vote separately as a class, such holders shall be entitled to one vote for each such share held by them respectively. Without the consent of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding, New UA may not: (i) increase the authorized amount of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock; (ii) create any other class of parity stock or senior stock or increase the authorized amount of any such other class; (iii) amend, alter or repeal any provision of New UA's New Certificate of Incorporation or bylaw's or the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock's Certificate Of Designations so as to adversely affect the rights, preferences or privileges of the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock; or (iv) merge or consolidate with or into any other person, or sell substantially all of its assets or business to any other person, except that New UA may engage in a transaction under (iv) if the stockholders of New UA immediately prior to such transaction hold at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving corporation in such transaction.
(f) Covenants. In addition to Article V.G.2(e) of the Plan, so long as any New UA Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding, New UA, without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of not less than a majority of such outstanding shares of New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, will not: (i) authorize or issue shares of stock of any class or any obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or having option rights to purchase, any shares of stock of New UA having any preference or priority as to dividends, assets or other rights superior to or on parity with any such preference or priority of the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock; (ii) reclassify any class or series of any junior stock into parity stock or senior stock or reclassify any series of parity stock into senior stock; (iii) pay or declare any dividend on any junior stock (with certain exceptions) while the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock remains outstanding, or
111
apply any of its assets (with certain exceptions) to the redemption, retirement, purchase or acquisition, directly or indirectly, through subsidiaries or otherwise, of any junior stock; or (iv) materially change the principal business of New UA.
2. Equity Elector Warrants and New UA Warrants
(a) Purchase Price. The holders of Equity Elector Warrants and New UA Warrants (collectively, the "Warrants") will be entitled to purchase from New UA at any time after the date of issuance of such Warrants (the "Date of Issuance") and on or before the seventh anniversary of the Date of Issuance, a certain number of shares of New UA Common Stock at a purchase price per share of $10.00 (the "Purchase Price"). The Purchase Price will be adjusted from time to time.
(i) Exercise.A Warrant may be exercised by the holder in whole or in part by surrendering such Warrant to New UA. An exercise of such Warrant will be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which such Warrant is surrendered to New UA and the Purchase Price is paid.
(ii) Adjustments. If the New UA Common Stock is subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in New UA Common Stock is paid in respect of New UA Common Stock, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend will simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If the outstanding New UA Common Stock is combined into a smaller number of shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When an adjustment to the Purchase Price is required to be made, the number of New UA Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of Warrant (the "Warrant Shares") will be adjusted to the number determined by dividing (A) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of such a Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (B) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. In case of any reclassification or change of the outstanding securities of New UA or of any reorganization of New UA (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of a Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the Date of Issuance, then and in each such case, the holder of a Warrant, at any time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization, merger or conveyance, will be entitled to receive, in lieu of the shares or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise of such a Warrant prior to such consummation, the shares or other securities or property to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such consummation.
3. Management Stock Options.
1,780,000 shares of New UA's Common Stock will be reserved for Management Stock Option grants to existing and/or future management executives of the Debtors and/or Reorganized Debtors ("Management"), which shall dilute existing New UA Common Stock and be vested as follows: 10% upon the Effective Date; 10% on the one-year anniversary after the Effective Date; and 20% on each of the second through fifth one-year anniversaries after the Effective Date. The strike price for the Management Stock Options will be $5 per share (with certain limited exceptions). New UA Common Stock issued to Management on account of the Management Stock Options will dilute on a Pro Rata basis the existing New UA Common Stock. The Plan, in accordance with the Bar & Lock-Up Agreements, also provides that a New UA's stockholders' agreement will incorporate up to 76 1,111
112
stock options to be reserved for future grants to Management by New UA's board of directors, adjusted upward for the dilution effect of other Warrants, with a strike price to be determined by New UA's board of directors.
In connection with the Plan, the holders of the New UA Common Stock, New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Equity Elector Warrants, and the Debt Elector Warrants will enter into a stockholders agreement which will provide for, among other things, registration rights and restrictions on transfer (including a right of first refusal for Anschutz and "drag-along" rights).
Under the Plan, the Holder of the Allowed Class 2D Claim shall receive the New IJA Common Stock, with rights and terms substantially similar to the UA Common Stock.
6. Exemptions From Registration Under the Securities Act.
(a) Section 1145 Exemption. The offer and sale by New UA of the New UA Common Stock, the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Equity Elector Warrants, the Debt Elector Warrants, Management Stock Options, and New UATC Common Stock to the holders of Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtors, and the offer and sale of New UA Common Stock upon the exercise of the conversion privilege or any other right under such Securities (collectively, the "Underlying New UA Common Stock"), under and in accordance with the Plan and on account of and with respect to such Claims and Interests, are and will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 1145(a)(l) and (2) of the Bankruptcy Code. Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides, in part:
Except with respect to an entity that is an underwriter, as defined in subsection (b) of this section, section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 and any state or local law requiring registration for offer or sale of a security or registration or licensing of an issuer of, underwriter of, or broker or dealer in, a security do not apply to—
(1) the offer or sale under a plan of a security of the debtor, of an affiliate participating in a joint plan with the debtor, or of a successor to the debtor under the plan—
(A) in exchange for a claim against, an interest in, or a claim for an administrative expense in the case concerning, the debtor or such affiliate; or
(B) principally in exchange and partly for cash or property;
(2) the offer of a security through any warrant, option, right to subscribe or conversion privilege that was sold in the manner specified in paragraph (1) of this subsection, or the sale of a security upon the exercise of such a warrant, option, right or privilege.
11 U.S.C. 5 1145. Specifically, New UA Common Stock will be offered and sold under the Plan in exchange for Class 2B Claim against the Debtors, and accordingly, the distribution of such securities are exempt under Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Moreover, New UATC Common Stock will be offered and sold under the Plan in exchange for Class 2D Claims against the Debtors, and accordingly, the distribution of such securities are exempt under Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Underlying New UA Common Stock will also be issued by New UA upon exercise of a conversion privilege, or other right under the Securities, as the case may be, that was sold or exchanged in the manner specified in Section 1145(a)(1);
113
accordingly, Section 1145(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code will exempt such Underlying New UA Common Stock from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of !Section 5 of the Securities Act.
(b) Subsequent Resales. The exemption provided by Section 1145(a) of the Bankruptcy Code only applies to the offer and sale of the Securities or any other securities under the Plan and does not extend to any subsequent offer or resale of such Securities, any subsequent offer or resale of other securities offered and sold under the Plan, or the Underlying New Common Stock. However, other provisions of Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code provide clarification with respect to the availability of the exemption afforded by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act to such offers and resales. Section 1145(c) provides that, "an offer or sale of securities of the kind and in the manner specified under subsection (a)(1) of this section is deemed to be a public offering." This prevents the characterization of such a distribution as a "private placement" which would otherwise result in any such securities being treated as "restricted securities" under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. Thus, the Securities or any other securities distributed under the Plan will not be "restricted securities" and may be resold (subject to restrictions on resale, if any, as provided in the terms of such Securities) without being subject to the restrictions on resales imposed by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, so long as the selling entity is not an "affiliate" of the issuer as defined under Rule 144(a)(1). Alternatively, any such selling entity deemed to be an "affiliate" of the issuer may resell the Securities or any other securities distributed under the Plan subject to the restrictions of Rule 144 (except for the holding period requirement).
ARTICLE VII
PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS
A. Distributions for Claims Allowed as of the Effective Date
1. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or as may be ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, distributions to be made on the Effective Date on account of Claims that are allowed as of the Effective Date and that are entitled to receive distributions under the Plan shall be made on the Effective Date or as soon as practicable thereafter. Distributions on account of Claims that become Allowed Claims after the Effective Date shall be made pursuant to Articles VI1.C and VII1.C of the Plan.
2. For purposes of determining the accrual of interest or rights in respect of any other payment from and after the Effective Date, (a) the accrual of interest and rights under the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility shall no longer continue on or after the Effective Date, and (b) any security, credit document, or other financial instrument to be issued under. the Plan (including but not limited to, the Restructured Bank Credit Agreement, the New UA Common Stock, the New UA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Equity Elector Warrants, the New UA Warrants, the Management Equity, and the New UATC Common Stock) shall be deemed issued as of the Effective Date regardless of the date on which they are actually dated, authenticated or distributed;provided,however that the Reorganized Debtors shall withhold any actual payment, if any, until such distribution is made and no interest shall accrue or otherwise be payable on any such amounts withheld.
3. Beginning on the Effective Date, except as otherwise stated in the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors in their sole discretion shall make distributions under the Plan as frequently as is reasonably practical and efficient under the circumstances.
114
B. Distributions by the Reorganized Debtors; Distributions with Respect to Debt Securities
The Reorganized Debtors shall make all distributions required under the Plan, except as otherwise provided therein. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article V.B of the Plan regarding the cancellation of the Subordinated Note Indentures, the Subordinated Note Indentures shall continue in effect to the extent necessary to allow the Subordinated Note Indenture Trustee to receive the New UA Warrants on behalf of the Holders of the Subordinated Notes and make distributions pursuant to the Plan on account of the Subordinated Notes as agent for New UA. The Subordinated Note Indenture Trustee and its attorney and/or accountants, for providing services related to distributions to the Holders of Allowed Subordinated Note Claims and otherwise making a substantial contribution to these Chapter 11 Cases, shall be entitled to Administrative Claims against the Estate of the relevant Debtor for reasonable compensation for such services and reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such services in accordance with Section 503(b)(3)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code;provided,however, that such Trustee, attorney, and/or accountant present invoices in a timely manner to the relevant Reorganized Debtor, who must review and consent to the reasonableness of such services and expenses set forth therein. Payments on account of such Administrative Claim(s) shall be made on terms mutually acceptable to the relevant Reorganized Debtor and the Holder(s) of such Administrative Claims.
C. Delivery and Distributions and Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions
Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be made at the address of the Holder of such Claim as indicated on records of the Debtors. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan or the Bankruptcy Code, distributions shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the applicable indenture, participation agreement, loan agreement or analogous instrument or agreement, if any, and distributions will be made to any Holders of record as of the Distribution Record Date.
2. Undeliverable Distributions
(a) Holding of Undeliverable Distributions. If any Allowed Claim Holder's distribution is returned to the Reorganized Debtors as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Reorganized Debtors are notified in writing of such Holder's then-current address, such that the distribution becomes deliverable. Undeliverable distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to Article VI1.C of the Plan until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable. Undeliverable Cash shall not be entitled to any interest, dividends or other accruals of any kind.
(b) Failure to Claim Undeliverable Distributions. In an effort to ensure that all Holders of Allowed Claims receive their allocated distributions, the Reorganized Debtors shall File with the Bankruptcy Court a listing of Holders of undeliverable distributions. This list will be maintained for as long as the Chapter 11 Cases remain open. Any Holder of an Allowed Claim that does not assert a Claim pursuant to the Plan for an undeliverable distribution within five years after the Effective Date shall have his, her, or its Claim for such undeliverable distribution discharged and shall be forever barred from asserting any such Claim against the Reorganized Debtors or their property. In such cases, any Cash held for distribution on account of such Claims shall be property of the Reorganized Debtors, free of any restrictions thereon. Nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Reorganized Debtors to attempt to locate any Holder of an Allowed Claim.
(c) Compliance with Tax Requirements. In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Reorganized Debtors shall imply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on it by any government unit, and all distributions pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements.
115
D. Distribution Record Date
As of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, the transfer register for any instrument, security, or other documentation canceled pursuant to Article V.B of the Plan (including, but not limited to, the Subordinated Notes and the Common Stock of certain of the Reorganized Debtors) shall be closed and there shall be no further changes in the record Holders of any such instrument, security, or documentation. Moreover, each Reorganized Debtor shall have no obligation to recognize the transfer of any such instrument, security, or other documentation occurring after the Distribution Record Date, and shall be entitled for all purposes herein to recognize and deal only with those Holders of record as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date.
E. Timing and Calculation of Amounts to be Distributed
Beginning on the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion and as frequently, soon, reasonably practicable, and efficient under the circumstances, shall make the distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims in accordance with the Plan. Beginning on the date that is the end of each calendar quarter following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, in their discretion and as frequently and reasonably practicable and efficient under the circumstances, shall also make the distributions to Holders of Disputed Claims whose Claims were allowed during the preceding calendar quarter, in accordance with the Plan.
F. De Minimis and Fractional Distributions
No Cash payment of less than five dollars ($5.00) shall be made by the Reorganized Debtors on account of any Allowed Claim, unless a specific request therefor is made in writing by the Holder of such Claim. In the event a Holder of an Allowed Claim is entitled to distribution that is not a whole dollar number, the actual payment or issuance made will reflect a rounding of such fractional portion of such distribution down or up to the nearest whole dollar, but in any case not to result in a distribution that exceeds any allowable total distribution authorized by the Plan.
G. Setoffs
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Reorganized Debtors may, pursuant to Sections 502(d) or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law, offset against any Allowed Claim, and the distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claim (before any distribution is made on account of such Claim), the Claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim; provided, however, that (1) the failure to effect such a setoff or the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall not constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may possess against such Holder, and (2) the Debtors' or the Reorganized Debtors' failure to institute, or express or implied waiver of, any Cause of Action referenced in Section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code shall not constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors of any right of setoff.
H. Surrender of Canceled Instruments or Securities
Except as set forth in Article VII.1 of the Plan, as a condition precedent to receiving any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim (other than a Bank Claim) evidenced by the instruments, securities or other documentation canceled pursuant to Article V.B of the Plan, the Holder of such a Claim shall tender the applicable instruments, securities or other documentation evidencing such Claim to the appropriate Reorganized Debtor. Any such instruments, securities, or other documentation to be distributed pursuant to the Plan on account of any such Claim shall,
116
pending such surrender, be treated as an undeliverable distribution pursuant to Article VI1.C of the Plan,
Each Holder of a Subordinated Note Claim shall tender such Notes relating to such Claim to New UA in accordance with written instructions to be provided to such Holders by New UA as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date. Such instructions shall specify that delivery of such Subordinated Notes will be effected, and risk of loss and title thereto will pass, only upon the proper delivery of such Subordinated Notes with a letter of transmittal in accordance with such instructions. All such surrendered Notes shall be marked as canceled.
Any Holder of an Allowed Claim on account of any instrument, security, or other documentation canceled pursuant to Article V.B of the Plan and required to be tendered hereunder within five years after the Effective Date (including, but not limited to, the Subordinated Notes, the UA Common Stock, and the Mamaroneck Preferred Stock and Common Stock) shall have its Claim for a distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of such canceled instrument, security, or other documentation discharged and shall be forever barred from asserting any such Claim against any Reorganized Debtor or its respective property. In such cases, any property held for distribution on account of such Claim shall be disposed of pursuant to the provisions set forth above in Article VI1.C.
I. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Instruments or Securities
Any Holder of an Allowed Claim on account of any instrument, security, or other documentation canceled pursuant to Article V.B of the Plan that has been lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, shall, in lieu of surrendering such instrument, security or other documentation: (i) deliver to the Reorganized Debtors (A) an affidavit of loss reasonably satisfactory to the Reorganized Debtors (or, in the case of a Subordinated Note, to the Subordinated Note Indenture Trustee) setting forth the unavailability of such instrument, security, or other document, and (B) such additional security or indemnity as may reasonably be required by the Reorganized Debtors to hold the Reorganized Debtors (or, in the case of the Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated Note Indenture Trustee) harmless from any damages, liabilities or costs incurred in treating such individual as a Holder of an Allowed Claim; and (ii) satisfy any other requirements under the Subordinated Note Indentures, the Prepetition Bank Credit Agreement, any article of incorporation or by-law, or any other relevant document. Upon compliance with Article VII.1 of the Plan by a Holder of a Claim evidenced by such instrument, security or other documentation, such Holder shall, for all purposes under the Plan, be deemed to have surrendered such instrument, security or other documentation.
J. Distributions to Professional Escrow Account on the Effective Date
On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall deposit Cash into the Professional Escrow Account in an amount reasonably sufficient to pay all Accrued Professional Compensation that has accrued as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that such Cash will be used to satisfy Claims of Professionals only pursuant to further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

In addition, potential Causes of Action which may be pursued by the Debtors prior to the Effective Date and by the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date, also include, without limitation the following:
Any other Causes of Action, whether legal, equitable or statutory in nature, arising out of, or in connection with the Debtor's businesses or operations, including, without limitation, the following: possible claims against vendors, landlords, subleasees, assignees, customers or suppliers for warranty, indemnity, back charge/set-off issues, overpayment or duplicate payment issues and collections/accounts receivables matters; deposits or other amounts owed by any creditor, lessor, utility, supplier, vendor, landlord, sublease, assignee, or other entity; employee, management or operational matters, claims, against landlords, subleasees and assignees arising from the various leases, subleases and assignment agreements relating thereto, including, without limitation, claims for overcharges relating to taxes, common area maintenance and other similar charges; financial reporting; environmental, and product liability matters; actions against insurance carriers relating to coverage, indemnity or other matters; counterclaims and defenses relating to notes or other obligations; contract or tort claims which may exist or subsequently arise; and
Except for certain Debtors who have expressly waived certain claims, any and all avoidance claims (including, without limitation, Preference Actions) pursuant to any applicable section ofthe Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation Sections 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, 550, 551, 553(b) and/or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, arising from any transaction involving or concerning the Debtors.
In addition, there may be numerous other Causes of Action which currently exist or may subsequently arise that are not set forth herein, in the Cause of Action Summary or in the List of Retained Causes of Action, because the facts upon which such Causes of Action are based are not currently or fully known by the Debtors and, as a result, can not be raised during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases (collectively, the "Unknown Causes of Action"). The failure to list any such Unknown Cause of Action herein, or in the Cause of Action Summary or the List of Retained Causes of Action, is not intended to limit the rights of the Reorganized Debtors to pursue any Unknown Cause of Action to the extent the facts underlying such Unknown Cause of Action subsequently become fully known to the Debtors.
The potential net proceeds from the Causes of Action identified herein, in the Causes of Action Summary and the List of Retained Causes of Action, or which may subsequently arise or be pursued, are speculative and uncertain and therefore no value has been assigned to such recoveries. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors do not intend, and it should not be assumed that because any existing or potential Causes of Action have not yet been pursued by the Debtors or are not set forth herein, whether in the Causes of Action Summary or the List of Retained Causes of Action, that any such Causes of Action have been waived.
Unless Causes of Action against a Person or entity are expressly waived, relinquished, released, compromised or settled in the Plan or any Final Order, the Debtors expressly reserve all Causes of Action and Unknown Causes of Action, including the Causes of Action described herein and in the Causes of Action Summary and the List of Retained Causes of Action, as well as any other Causes of Action or Unknown Causes ofAction, for later adjudication and therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including, without limitation, the doctrines ofres judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claimpreclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable or otherwise) or lathes shall apply to such Causes of Action upon or after the confirmation or consumma tion of the Plan. In addition, the Debtors expressly reserve the right to pursue or adopt any claims alleged in any lawsuit in which the Debtors are a defendant or an interested party, including the lawsuits described in Article XI1.D of the Disclosure
134
Statement, against any Person, including, without limitation, the plaintiffs and co-defendants in such lawsuits.
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan, in accordance with Section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that the respective Debtors, Estates, or Post-Confirmation Estates may hold against any Person or Entity, including but not limited to those Causes of Action listed in Article 1X.D of the Disclosure Statement, shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors, and the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may exclusively enforce, as the authorized representatives of the respective Estates and Post-Confirmation Estates, any and all such Claims, rights, or Causes ofAction. Except as otherwise provided in the Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet (including, without limitation, the carveouts for potential Preference Actions against certain entities described in such Term Sheet), the Reorganized Debtors (a) may pursue any and all such Claims rights, or Causes of Action, as appropriate, in accordance with the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors, and (b) shall have the exclusive right, authority, and discretion to institute, prosecute, abandon, settle, or compromise any and all such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action without the consent or approval of any third party and without any further order of court.
2. Intercompany Claims
On the Effective Date, and to the extent not otherwise modified pursuant to a corporate transaction set forth in Article V of the Plan, each Reorganized Debtor shall retain all rights and obligations relating to all Intercompany Claims that it may have against any direct or indirect wholly-

ARTICLE Xl
PROCESS OF VOTING AND CONFIRMATION
The following is a brief summary regarding the acceptance and Confirmation of the Plan. Holders of Claims and Equity Interests are encouraged to review the relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and/or to consult their own attorneys. Additional information regarding voting procedures is set forth in the Notice accompanying this Disclosure Statement.
A. Voting Instructions
This Disclosure Statement, accompanied by a Ballot to be used for voting on the Plan, is being distributed to Holders of Claims in Classes lB, 2B, 2D, 2F, 3B, 3E, 4B, 4E, 5B, 5E, 6D, 7D, 8D, 9D, lOD, 11D, 12D, 13D, 14D, I5D, 16D, and 18D. Only such Holders are entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan and may do so by completing the Ballot and returning it to the Information Agent.In light of the benefits to be attained by the Plan on behalf of each Class of Claims, the Debtors recommend that Holders of Claims in each of the Impaired Classes vote to accept the Plan and return the Ballot.
BALLOTS MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE INFORMATION AGENT, BANKRUPTCY SERVICES, LLC("BSI"), HERON TOWER, 70 EAST 55TH STREET, 6TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10022, ATTENTION: DIANE ROCANO, ON OR BEFORE 4:00 P.M., PREVAILING EASTERN TIME, ON JANUARY 12, 2001 (THE "VOTING DEADLINE"). ANY BALLOT RECEIVED AFTER THAT TIME MAY NOT BE COUNTED. ANY BALLOT WHICH IS EXECUTED BY THE HOLDER OF AN ALLOWED CLAIM OR EQUITY INTEREST BUT WHICH DOES NOT INDICATE AN ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE PLAN SHALL BE DEEMED AN ACCEPTANCE OF THE PLAN.
138
B. Voting Tabulation
In tabulating votes, the following hierarchy shall be used to determine the Claim amount associated with a creditors vote: (1) the Claim amount established by Court order; (2) the Claim amount contained on an unobjected to proof of Claim, (3) the Claim amount contained on an unobjected to Ballot; (4) the Claim amount listed in the Debtors' schedules; and (5) in the absence of any of the foregoing, zero. The Claim amount established through this process controls for voting purposes only and does not constitute the Allowed amount of any Claim. Further, the designation of a Claim as disputed, contingent or unliquidated on the Debtors' schedules will not be used to disqualify any vote.
To ensure that a vote is counted, a Claim Holder must (i) complete a Ballot, (ii) indicate the Holder's decision either to accept or reject the Plan in the boxes provided in Item No. 3 of the Ballot, and (iii) sign and return the Ballot to the address set forth on the enclosed prepaid envelope.
The Ballot is not a letter of transmittal and may not be used for any purpose other than to vote to accept or reject the Plan and to determine the alleged amount of a beneficial Holder's Claim. Accordingly, at the time the Ballot is transmitted, creditors should not surrender certificates, instruments, or other documents representing or evidencing their Claims, and neither the Debtors nor the Solicitation Agent will accept delivery of such certificates or instruments surrendered together with a Ballot. The remittance of notes or other evidence of Claims for exchange pursuant to the Plan may only be made by a Holder and will not be accepted if certificates or instruments representing Claims (in proper form for transfer) are delivered together with a letter of transmittal thai will be furnished to as provided under the Plan or as notified following Confirmation of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court.
The Ballot does not constitute, and shall not be deemed to be, a Proof of Claim or Equity Interest or an assertion or admission of a Claim or Equity Interest. If a creditor casts a Ballot and (a) the creditor has not timely filed a proof of Claim (or has otherwise had such a proof of Claim deemed timely filed by the Court under applicable law) and is listed on the Debtors' schedules of liabilities as holding a Claim that is contingent, unliquidated or disputed or (b) the creditor has filed a proof of Claim and the entirety of the creditor's Claim is the subject of an objection to said Claim filed before the commencement of the Confirmation hearing, said creditor's Ballot shall not be counted in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3018, unless temporarily allowed by the Court for voting purposes, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3018(a), after notice and a hearing prior to the Voting Deadline. Ballots cast by creditors whose Claims are not listed on the Debtors' schedules of liabilities, but who timely file proofs of Claim in unliquidated or unknown amounts that are not the subject of an objection filed before the commencement of the Confirmation hearing, will count for satisfying the numerosity requirement of section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, but will not count toward satisfying the aggregate dollar amount provisions of that section. If the Debtors file an objection to a proof of Claim after the Voting Deadline, such Claim shall not count for voting purposes, unless temporarily allowed by the Court for voting purposes pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3018(a) after notice and a hearing.
If a Holder holds Claims in more than one Class under the Plan, the Holder may receive more than one Ballot coded for each Ballot received.
Except to the extent the Debtors so determine or as permitted by the Bankruptcy Court, Ballots received after the Voting Deadline will not be accepted or counted by the Debtors in connection with the Debtors' request for Confirmation of the Plan. The method of delivery of Ballots to be sent to the Solicitation Agent is at the election and risk of each Holder of a Claim. Except as otherwise provided herein, such delivery will be deemed made only when the original executed Ballot is actually received by the Solicitation Agent. Instead of effecting delivery by mail, it is recommended, though not required, that such Holders use an overnight or hand delivery service. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to assure timely delivery. Delivery of a Ballot by facsimile, e-mail or any other electronic means will not be accepted. No Ballot should be sent to any of the Debtors, any indenture trustee, or
139
the Debtors' financial or legal advisors. The Debtors expressly reserve the right to amend, at any time and from time to time, the terms of the Plan (subject to compliance with the requirements of Section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code). If the Debtors make a material change in the terms of the Plan or if the Debtors waive a material condition, the Debtors will disseminate additional solicitation materials and will extend the solicitation, in each case to the extent required by law.
If multiple Ballots are received from an individual Holder of Claims with respect to the same Claims prior to the Expiration Date, the last Ballot timely received will supersede and revoke any earlier received Ballot. Creditors must vote all of their Claims or equity interests within a particular Plan class either to accept or reject the Plan and may not split their vote. Accordingly, a ballot that partially rejects and partially accepts the Plan will not be counted.
If a Ballot is signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should indicate such capacity when signing and, unless otherwise determined by the Debtors, must submit proper evidence satisfactory to the Debtors to so act on behalf of a beneficial interest Holder.
In the event a designation is requested under Section 1126(e)of the Bankruptcy Code, any vote to accept or reject the Plan cast with respect to such Claim will not be counted for purposes of determining whether the Plan has been accepted or rejected, unless the Bankruptcy Court orders otherwise.
Any Holder of an Impaired Claim who has delivered a valid Ballot voting on the Plan may withdraw such vote solely in accordance with Rule 3018(a) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.
Subject to any contrary order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors reserve the absolute right to reject any and all Ballots not proper in form the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of the Debtors or their counsel, not be in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to contrary order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors further reserve the right to waive any defects or irregularities or conditions of delivery as to any particular Ballot unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors' interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Plan (including the Ballot and the Voting Instructions), unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, shall be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, any defects or irregularities in connection with deliveries of Ballots must be cured within such time as the Debtors (or the Bankruptcy Court) determine. Neither the Debtors nor any other person or entity will be under any duty to provide notification of defects or irregularities with respect to deliveries of Ballots nor will any of them incur any liabilities for failure to provide such notification. Unless otherwise directed by the Bankruptcy Court, delivery of such Ballots will not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Ballots previously furnished (and as to which any irregularities have not theretofore been cured or waived) will not be counted.
C. Confirmation Hearing
Section 1128(a) of the Bankruptcy Code requires the Bankruptcy Court, after notice, to hold a hearing on Confirmation of the Plan (the "Confirmation Hearing"). Section 1128(b) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that any party-in-interest may object to Confirmation of the Plan.The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled the Confirmation Hearing for January 22, 2001, before the Honorable Sue L. Robinson, United States Bankruptcy Judge, in the room normally occupied by the Bankruptcy Judge in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Marine Midland Plaza, 824 Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801. The Confirmation Hearing may be adjourned from time to time by the Bankruptcy Court without further notice except for an announcement of the adjourned date made at the Confirmation Hearing or any adjournment thereof.
140

D. Statutory Requirements for Confirmation of the Plan
At the Confirmation Hearing, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine whether the requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Court have been satisfied. If so, the Bankruptcy Court shall enter the Confirmation Order. The Debtors believe that the Plan satisfies or will satisfy the applicable requirements, as follows:
a. The Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
b. The Debtors, as Plan proponents, will have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
c. The Plan has been proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law.
d. Any payment made or promised under the Plan for services or for costs and expenses in, or in connection with, this Bankruptcy Case, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the case, has been disclosed to the Bankruptcy Court, and any such payment made before the Confirmation of the Plan is reasonable, or if such payment is to be fixed after the Confirmation of the Plan, such payment is subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court as reasonable.
e. With respect to each Class of Impaired Claims or Equity Interests, either each Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest of such Class has accepted the Plan, or will receive or retain under the Plan on account of such Claim or Equity Interest, property of a value, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, that is not less than the amount that such Holder would receive or retain if the Debtors were liquidated on such date under Chapter 7 of the:Bankruptcy Code.
f. Each Class of Claims or Equity Interests that is entitled to vote on the Plan has either accepted the Plan or is not impaired under the Plan.
g. Except to the extent that the Holder of a particular Claim will agree to a different treatment of such Claim, the Plan provides that Allowed Administrative, Allowed Priority Tax Claims and Allowed Other Priority Claims will be paid in full on the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable.
h. At least one Class of Impaired Claims or Equity Interests will accept the Plan, determined without including any acceptance of the Plan by any insider holding a Claim of such Class.
i. Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtors or any successor to the Debtors under the Plan, unless such liquidation or reorganization is proposed in the Plan.
141
j. All fees of the type described in 28 USC. 5 1930, including the fees of the United States Trustee willbe paid as of the Effective Date.
The Debtors believe that (a) the Plan satisfies or will satisfy all of the statutory requirements of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) it has complied or will have complied with all of the requirements of Chapter 11; and (c) the Plan has been proposed in good faith
Before the Plan may be confirmed, the Bankruptcy Court must find (with certain exceptions) that the Plan provides, with respect to each Class, that each Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest in such Class either (a) has accepted the Plan or(b) will receive or retain under the Plan property of a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount that such person would receive or retain if the Debtors liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.
In Chapter 7 cases, unsecured creditors and interest holders of a debtor are paid from available assets generally in the following order, with no lower class receiving any payments until all amounts due to senior classes have been paid fully or payment provided for: (a) secured creditors (to the extent of the value of their collateral); (b) priority creditors; (c) unsecured creditors; (d) debt expressly subordinated by its terms or by order of the bankruptcy court; and (e) equity interest holders.
As described in more detail in the Liquidation Analysis in Article 1II.A of the Disclosure Statement, the Debtors believe that the value of any distributions in a Chapter 7 case would be equal or less than the going-concern value of distributions under the Plan. In addition, such distributions in a Chapter 7 case may not occur for a longer period of time thereby reducing the present value of such distributions. In this regard, it is possible that distribution of the proceeds of a liquidation could be delayed for a period in order for a Chapter 7 trustee and its professionals to become knowledgeable about the Bankruptcy Case and the Claims against the Debtors, In addition, the fees and expenses of a Chapter 7 trustee would likely exceed those of the Debtors in Possession, thereby further reducing cash available for distribution.
The Bankruptcy Code requires the Bankruptcy Court to find, as a condition to Confirmation, that Confirmation is not likely to be followed by the liquidation of the Debtors or the need for further financial reorganization, unless such liquidation is contemplated by the Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Debtors will possess sufficient Cash to satisfy postpetition obligations under the Plan.
The Bankruptcy Code requires, as a condition to Confirmation, that each class of claims or equity interests that is impaired under a plan accept the plan, with the exception described in the following Section, A class that is not "impaired" under a plan of reorganization is deemed to have accepted the plan and, therefore, solicitation of acceptances with respect to such class is not required. A class is "impaired" unless the plan (a) leaves unaltered the legal, equitable and contractual rights to which the claim or equity interest entitles the holder of such claim or equity interest; (b) cures any default and reinstates the original terms of the obligation; or (c) provides that on the consummation date, the holder of the claim or interest receives cash equal to the allowed amount of such claim or, with respect to any interest, any fixed liquidation preference to which the interest holder is entitled or any fixed price at which the debtor may redeem the security.
142
Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code allows a Bankruptcy Court to confirm a plan, even if the plan has not been accepted by all impaired classes entitled to vote on the plan, provided that the plan has been accepted by at least one impaired class. Holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Classes 1F and 2G are impaired and will receive no distribution from the Debtors under the Plan and therefore are deemed to have rejected the Plan. Thus, the Debtors will seek the application of the statutory requirements set forth in Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for Confirmation of the Plan despite lack of acceptance by all Impaired Classes.
Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code states that notwithstanding the failure of an impaired class to accept a plan of reorganization, the plan shall be confirmed, on request of the proponent of the plan, in a procedure commonly known as "cram-down," so long as the plan does not "discriminate unfairly" and is "fair and equitable" with respect to each class of claims or equity interests that is impaired under, and has not accepted, the plan.
The condition that a plan be "fair and equitable" with respect to a non-accepting class of secured claims includes the requirements that: (a) the holders of such secured claims retain the liens securing such claims to the extent of the allowed amount of the claims, whether the property subject to the liens is retained by the debtor or transferred to another entity under the plan and (b) each holder of a secured claim in the class receives deferred cash payments totaling at least the allowed amount of such claim with a present value, as of the effective date of the plan, at least equivalent to the value of the secured claimant's interest in the debtor's property subject "to the liens.
The condition that a plan be "fair and equitable" with respect to a non-accepting class of unsecured claims includes the following requirement that either: (i) the plan provides that each holder of a claim of such class receive or retain on account of such claim property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, equal to the allowed amount of such claim; or (ii) the holder of any claim or interest that is junior to the claims of such class will not receive or retain under the plan on account of such junior claim or interest any property.
The condition that a plan be "fair and equitable" with respect to a non-accepting class of equity interests includes the requirements that either: (a) the plan provide that each holder of an equity interest in such class receive or retain under the plan, on account of such equity interest, property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, equal to the greater of(i) the allowed amount of any fixed liquidation preference to which such holder is entitled, (ii) any fixed redemption price to which such holder is entitled, or (iii) the value of such interest; or (b) if the class does not receive such an amount as required under (a), no class of equity interests junior to the non-accepting class may receive a distribution under the plan.
ARTICLE XII
RISK FACTORS
All Holders of Impaired Claims should read and carefully consider the factors set forth below, as well as the other information set forth or otherwise referenced in this Disclosure Statement, prior to voting to accept or reject the Plan.
A. Financial Information; Disclaimer
Although the Debtors have used their best efforts to ensure the accuracy of the financial information provided in this Disclosure Statement, the financial information contained in this Disclosure Statement has not been audited and is based upon an analysis of data available at the time of the preparation of the Plan and Disclosure Statement. While the Debtors believe that such financial
143
information fairly reflects the financial condition of the Debtors, the Debtors are unable to warrant or represent that the information contained herein and attached hereto is without inaccuracies.
B. Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Plan to the Debtors, Holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and Holders of subordinated Notes. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations and practice, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, with possible retroactive effect. Due to the lack of definitive judicial and administrative authority in a number of areas, substantial uncertainty may exist with respect to some of the tax consequences described below. No opinion of counsel has been obtained, and the Debtors do not intend to seek a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS') as to any of such tax consequences, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences of the Plan described below.
This summary does not apply to Holders of Claims and Equity Interests that are not United States persons (as defined in the Code) or that are otherwise subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (including, for example, banks, governmental authorities or agencies, financial institutions, insurance companies, pass-through entities, tax-exempt organizations, brokers and dealers in securities, mutual funds, small business investment companies, and regulated investment companies). Moreover, this summary does not purport to cover all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may apply to the Debtors, Holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and Holders of Subordinated Notes based upon their particular circumstances. Additionally, this summary does not discuss any tax consequences that may arise under state, local, or foreign tax law.
The following summary is not a substitute for careful tax planning and advice based on the particular circumstances of each Holder of Claims and Equity Interests and Subordinated Notes. Each such Holder is urged to consult his, her, or its own tax advisor as to the federal income tax consequences, as well as any applicable state, local, and foreign consequences of the Plan.
1. Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests
a. Consequences to Holders of the Subordinated Notes
(i) In General
Whether the Holders of Subordinated Notes will recognize gain or loss upon the receipt of such Notes in exchange for, among other things, the discharge of their Claims, depends on (a) whether the exchange qualifies as a tax-free reorganization and (b) whether the Subordinated Notes are treated as "securities" for purposes of the reorganization provisions of the Code. Whether an instrument constitutes a "security" is determined based on all the facts and circumstances, but most authorities have held that the length of the term of a debt instrument is an important factor in determining whether such instrument is a security for federal income tax purposes. These authorities have indicated that a term of less than five years is evidence that the instrument is not a security, whereas a term of ten years of more is evidence that it is a security. There are numerous other factors that could be taken into account in determining whether a debt instrument is a security, including among others, the security for payment, the creditworthiness of the obligor, the subordination or lack thereof to other creditors, the right to vote or otherwise participate in the management of the obligor, convertibility of the instrument into an equity interest of the obligor, whether payments of interest are fixed, variable or contingent, and whether such payments are made on a current basis or accrued.
144
The Fixed Rate Notes (issued April 28,199s and maturing in April 15,2008) have a term of approximately ten years and thus should be treated as securities for federal income tax purposes. The Floating Rate Notes (issued in April 21, 1998 and maturing in October 15,2007) have a term of approximately nine and a half years and thus should also be treated as securities for federal income tax purposes. The term of a debt instrument is not necessarily determinative, however, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or the court will agree that the Subordinated Notes constitute securities for federal income tax purposes.
Assuming that the Subordinated Notes are treated as securities, the receipt of Subordinated Notes should be treated as a recapitalization (and therefore, a tax-free reorganization), and Holders of Subordinated Notes should not recognize any gain or loss, except that a Holder will recognize gain, but not loss, to the extent that the New UA Warrants are treated as received in satisfaction of accrued interest on the Subordinated Notes. Such Holder should obtain a tax basis in the New UA Warrants equal to the tax basis of the Subordinated Notes surrendered thereof and should have a holding period for the New UA Warrants that includes the holding period for the Subordinated Notes; provided. however, that the tax basis of any New UA Warrant treated as received in satisfaction of accrued interest should equal the amount of such accrued interest, and the holding period for such New UA Warrant should not include the holding period of the Subordinated Notes.
To the extent that any amount received by a Holder of a Subordinated Note under the Plan is attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, such amount may be taxable to the Holder as interest income, if such accrued interest has not been previously included in the Holder's gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Conversely, a Holder of a Subordinated Note may be able to recognize a deductible loss (or, possibly a write-off against a reserve for bad debts) for such purposes to the extent that any accrued interest was previously included in the Holder's gross income but was not paid in full by the Debtors.
Pursuant to the Plan, the Restructured Bank Credit Facility will in essence replace the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. In general, the entire amount of gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes on a sale, exchange, or other disposition of property, unless specific provisions of the Code provide for nonrecognition treatment. Under Treasury regulations, a significant modification of a debt instrument, including a modification evidenced by an amendment of the instrument, is deemed to result in an exchange of the original instrument for a modified instrument. Under such Treasury regulations, a significant modification of a debt instrument includes, among other things, a change in the annual yield of the instrument (including a change resulting from a reduction of the principal of a debt instrument) by more than the greater of (a) 25 basis points or (b) five percent of the annual yield of the unmodified instrument. Because the principal amount of the Restructured Bank Credit Facility is 72.5% of the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility, the "replacement" of the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility should be treated as substantial modification. As a result, the Debt Electors should recognize gain or loss on the deemed exchange of the Bank Claims with the Restructured Bank Credit Note Interests to the extent of the difference between (a) the "amount realized" with respect to such exchange and (b) the Debt Electors' tax basis in the Restructured Bank Credit Facility (other than accrued interest). To the extent that any amount received by the Debt Electors under the Plan is attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, such amount may be taxable to the Debt Electors as interest income (as described in "Accrued Interest" Article XI1.B. 1.a.(ii)).
145
In general, Holders of Allowed Claims (other than Holders of Subordinated Notes) should recognize taxable gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent that their Allowed Claims are surrendered in exchange for Cash, a promissory note, or any other distribution. The amount of taxable gain or loss would be based upon the difference between the tax basis of such Allowed Claims and the fair market value of such distributions received by such Holder. The tax basis of such Holder's Allowed Claim would equal the fair market value of such Claim at the time of the distribution, and the holding period for such new distributions, if any, would begin on the day following the exchange.
The U.S. federal income tax treatment of any taxable gain or loss recognized by a Holder regarding any Allowed Claims (as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss or as ordinary income or loss) will be determined by a number of factors, including (a) the U.S. tax status of the Holder, (b) whether the obligation from which the Allowed Claim arose constitutes a capital asset of the Holder, (c) whether the obligation from which the Allowed Claim arose has been held for more than one year or was purchased at a discount, and (d) whether and to what extent the Holder has previously claimed a bad debt deduction in respect of the obligation from which the Allowed Claim arose.
A Holder of any Equity Interest that is cancelled under the Plan will be allowed a "worthless stock deduction" in an amount equal to the Holder's adjusted basis in such Equity Interest. A "worthless stock deduction" is a deduction allowed to a holder of a corporation's stock for the taxableyear in which such stock becomes worthless. If the Holder held the Equity Interest as a capital asset, the loss will be treated as a loss from the sale or exchange of such capital asset.
The aggregate outstanding indebtedness of each of the Debtors will be substantially reduced pursuant to the Plan. In general, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a debtor recognizes cancellation of indebtedness ("COD") income upon satisfaction of its outstanding indebtedness for less than its adjusted issue price. The amount of COD income is, in general, the excess of(i) the adjusted issue price of the indebtedness satisfied, over (ii) the sum of the issue price of any new indebtedness of the taxpayer issued, the amount of cash paid and the fair market value of any other consideration (including the stock of the taxpayer) given in satisfaction of indebtedness.
A debtor is not required to include COD income in gross income if the debt discharge occurs in case under the Bankruptcy Code. However, the debtor must, as of the first day of the next taxable year, reduce its tax attributes (in general, first its net operating loss ("NOL") carryover and then tax credits and capital loss carryovers, and the tax basis of its assets) by the amount of COD income excluded from gross income by this exception. Under the Plan, the Debtors may realize COD income attributable to the cancellation of the Subordinated Notes. Because COD income will be realized in a case filed under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors will not be required to recognize the COD income in taxable income, but will be required to reduce their NOL carryover and certain other tax attributes by the amount of COD income.
The IRS has ruled informally that the attribute reduction rules apply on a separate company basis to corporations that are members of a consolidated group of corporations. As previously stated, the Debtors anticipate that they will reduce the amount of their NOL carryforward (and then, although highly unlikely, reduce their other tax attributes and the tax basis of their assets), and this will be done on a separate company basis so that each entity that is a member of the consolidated group will reduce
146
its share of NOL carryforward (and then its other tax attributes and then the tax basis of its assets) by the amount of COD income attributable to such member.
Code Section 382 generally limits a corporation's use of its net operating losses (and may limit a corporation's use of certain built-in losses, recognized within a five-year period) if a corporation undergoes an "ownership change" (hereinafter the limitation under Code Section 382 is referred to as the "Section 382 Limitation"). Section 382 Limitation on the use of pre-change losses in any post-change year is equal to the product of the fair market value of the corporation's outstanding stock immediately before the ownership change and the long-term tax-exempt rate (which is published monthly by the Treasury Department and is intended to represent current interest rates on long-term tax-exempt debt obligations) in effect for the month in which the ownership change occurs. Code Section 383 applies similar limitations to capital loss carryovers and tax credits. In general, an ownership change occurs when the percentage of the corporation's stock owned by certain "5 percent shareholders" increases by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage owned at any time during the applicable "testing period" (generally, the shorter of(i) the three-year period preceding the testing date or (ii) the period of time since the most recent ownership change of the corporation). A "5 percent shareholder" for these purposes includes, generally, an individual or entity that directly or indirectly owns 5 percent or more of the corporation's stock during the relevant period, and may include one or more groups of shareholders that in the aggregate own less than 5 percent of the value of the corporation's stock. Under applicable Treasury regulations, an ownership change with respect to an affiliated group of corporations filing a consolidated return that have consolidated NOL's is generally measured by changes in stock ownership of the parent corporation of the group (e.g., UA). The Debtors expect that the exchanges anticipated to occur pursuant to the Plan should cause an ownership change with respect to UA.
When an "ownership change" occurs pursuant to the implementation of a plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, the general Section 382 Limitation may not apply if certain requirements are satisfied. Under Section 382(l)(5) of the Code, the Section 382 Limitation does not apply to an ownership change of a loss corporation if the corporation was under the jurisdiction of a bankruptcy court immediately before the change and those persons who were shareholders and creditors of the loss corporation immediately before the ownership change own at least 50 percent of the loss corporation's stock by value and voting power after the ownership change (the "Bankruptcy Exception"). Stock held by a creditor that was converted from indebtedness is considered in determining whether the 50 percent requirement is satisfied only if (a) the creditor held (or is treated as holding) the debt at least 18 months before the case was tiled or (b) the debt arose in the ordinary course of the loss corporation's trade or business and has been held by the person who has at all times held the beneficial interest in the claim. If an exchange of debt for stock in a bankruptcy case does not qualify for the Bankruptcy Exception, the value of the loss corporation for purposes of calculating its Section 382 Limitation shall reflect the increase, if any, in value of the loss corporation resulting form any surrender or cancellation of creditor's claims in the transaction.
Thus, under Code Section 382(l)(5), Debtors would avoid entirely the application of Section 382 Limitation to the NOLs and recognized built-in losses, if any, but would be required to reduce their NOLs and possibly other tax attributes by any deduction for interest claimed by the Reorganized Debtors with respect to any indebtedness converted into stock for (a) the three-year period preceding the taxable year of the "ownership change" and (b) the portion of the year of the "ownership change" prior to the consummation of the Plan. In addition, under Section 382(1)(5)(D) of the Code, if a second "ownership change" with respect to the Reorganized Debtors occurs within the two-year period following the consummation of the Plan, the Section 382(l)(5) exception will not apply and any NOLs and other pre-change losses remaining after the second "ownership change" will be eliminated. If the
147
Debtors were to determine that either(i) the risk of the occurrence of a second "ownership change," or (ii) the NOL reduction under Section 382(l)(5) of the Code is too substantial, the Debtors could elect out of the application of Code Section 382(l)(5).
If the Debtors elect not to utilize Section 382(l)(5) or if the exchanges do not qualify for the tax treatment under Section 382(l)(5), the Debtors' use of their NOL carryover to offset taxable income earned after the ownership change will be subject to the Section 382 Limitation. Since the Debtors are in bankruptcy, however, Code section 382(l)(6) will apply. Under Code Section 382(l)(6), the Section 382 Limitation will be calculated by reference to the net equity value of the Debtors' stock immediately after the ownership change (rather than immediately before the ownership change, as is the case for non-bankruptcy ownership changes). In such case, because it is difficult to predict the Debtors' net equity value immediately after the "exchanges" contemplated by the Plan, the Debtors use of their NOL carryover may be substantially limited after the ownership change.
The Debtors will withhold all amount required by law to be withheld from payments of interest and dividends. The Debtors will comply with ail applicable reporting requirements of the Code.
C. Certain Bankruptcy Considerations
Even if the requisite acceptances are received, there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan. A non-accepting creditor of the Debtors might challenge the solicitation procedures and results or the terms of the Plan as not being in compliance with the Bankruptcy Code. Even if the Bankruptcy Court were to determine that the balloting procedures and results were appropriate, the Bankruptcy Court could still decline to confirm the Plan if found that any statutory conditions to Confirmation had not been met, including that the terms of the Plan are fair and equitable to non-accepting Classes. Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code sets forth the requirements for Confirmation and requires, among other things, a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that the Plan "does not unfairly discriminate" and is "fair and equitable" with respect to any non-accepting Classes and that the Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by a liquidation or a need for further financial reorganization and that the value of distributions to non-accepting Classes of Impaired Claims and Equity Interests will not be less than the value of distributions such Classes of Impaired Claims and Equity Interests would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. While there can be no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will conclude that these requirements have been met, the Debtors believe that the Plan will not be followed by a liquidation or the need for further financial reorganization and that non-accepting Holders of Impaired Claims and Equity Interests will receive distributions at least as great as would be received following a liquidation pursuant to Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors believe that Holders of Unsecured Claims against UA and UATC, the Subordinated Note Holders, and Holders of Equity Interests in UA and UATC would not receive any distribution under a liquidation pursuant to Chapter 7 or Chapter 11.
Article III.C.6 of the Plan provides that if Class 2F does not vote to accept the Plan, then on the Effective Date:, each Holder of a Class 2F Claim shall neither receive any distribution nor retain any property under the Plan. While the Debtor believes that this provision is permissible under the Bankruptcy Code, arguments exist that certain case law would permit a contrary conclusion which, if accepted by the Bankruptcy Court, may result in the Plan not being confirmed.
Article X.C. of the Plan provides that each Holder of a Claim who has accepted the Plan in exchange for, among other things, a distribution under the Plan, shall be deemed to have released unconditionally each of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, their subsidiaries, their affiliates, and
148
the Releases, and the agents, officers, directors, partners, members, professionals, and agents of the foregoing (and the officers, directors, partners, members, professionals, and agents of each thereof), from any and all Claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of Action, remedies and liabilities whatsoever, whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such Person or Entity would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively), based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence taking place on or before the Effective Date in any way relating or pertaining to the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, or any related agreements, instruments or other documents, except: (i) for Claims arising under the Plan; and (ii) for Claims arising after the Petition Date in the ordinary course of business. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Confirmation Order will constitute an injunction permanently enjoining the commencement or prosecution by any entity, whether directly, derivatively, or otherwise, of any Claim, demand, liability, obligation, debt, right, Cause of Action, interest, remedy released or to be released pursuant to the Plan against the foregoing Persons and Entities. Although the Debtors believe that this provision is permissible under the Bankruptcy Code, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") disputes the enforceability of the release contained in Article X.C. of the Plan, on the ground that the release is unenforceable under Section 524(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. The SEC has reserved its right to oppose confirmation of the Plan based on such objection.
Pursuant to the "cramdown" provisions of Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Count can confirm Plan at the Debtors' request if at least or; other Impaired Class has accepted the Plan (with such acceptance being determined without including the acceptance of any "insider"in such Class) and, as to each Impaired Class which has not accepted the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court determines that the Plan "does not discriminate unfairly" and is "fair and equitable" with respect to Impaired Classes. In accordance with Section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may be required to request Confirmation of the Plan without the acceptance of all Impaired Classes entitled to vote in accordance with Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Debtors, except as provided for in the Lock-Up Agreements, reserve the right to modify the terms of the Plan as necessary for the Confirmation of the Plan without the acceptance of all Impaired Classes. Such modification could result in a less favorable treatment of any non-accepting Class or Classes, as well as of any Classes junior to such non-accepting Classes, than the treatment currently provided in the Plan. Such less favorable treatment could include a distribution of property to the Class affected by the modification of a lesser value than that currently provided in the Plan or no distribution of property whatsoever under the Plan.
Any delays of either Confirmation or effectiveness of the Plan could result in, among other things, increased Claims of Professionals. These or any other negative effects of delays of either Confirmation or effectiveness of the Plan could endanger the ultimate approval of the Plan by the Bankruptcy Court.
Under Section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, a plan of reorganization must provide the same treatment for each claim or interest of a particular class, unless the holder of the particular claim or interest agrees to a less favorable treatment of such particular claim or interest. The Debtors can provide no assurance that the Bankruptcy Court will not disapprove of the classifications of Claims and Equity Interests contained in the Plan.
149
The Subordinated Note Indentures, pursuant to which the Subordinated Notes were issued, contain language seeking to subordinate certain Claims to other Claims. The Debtors can provide no assurances, however, the Bankruptcy Court will interpret such language as mandating or not mandating subordination.
The Plan does not contemplate consolidating any of the Debtors into one entity. The Debtors can provide no assurance, however, that (i) the Bankruptcy Court will not order one or more of the Debtors to be substantively consolidated; or (ii) that a party in interest will not move for such substantive consolidation to occur. Substantive consolidation of one or more of the Debtors into one entity would affect the distribution of property currently provided in the Plan.
The distributions available to Holders under the Plan can be affected by a variety of contingencies, including, without limitation, whether or not the Debtors are consolidated, and whether the Bankruptcy Court orders certain Claims or Equity Interests to be subordinated to other Claims or Equity Interests. The occurrence of any and all such contingencies which could affect distributions available to Holders under the Plan, however, will not affect the validity of the vote taken by the Impaired Classes to accept or reject the Plan or require any sort of re-vote by the Impaired Classes.
The Bank Lock-Up Agreements will terminate, among other things, one year after the date of their execution. Thereafter, the signatories thereto will no longer be bound to support the Debtors' Plan.
D. Pending Litigation
The Debtors are involved from time to time in routine litigation that is incidental to their businesses. Typically, these matters consist of theatre construction or lease disputes, intellectual property, advertising and/or licensing disputes, insurance matters, real estate and use tax disputes, and employment litigation. The Debtors do not believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect upon the Debtors. However, prior to the Petition Date, one or more of the Debtors were a party to, or were affected by, certain litigation that could result in decisions materially adverse to the Debtors and their estates. This litigation includes those legal proceedings in which Claims are asserted against, or may affect, one or more of the Debtors in amount that may exceed $200,000 (the "Legal Proceedings").
- A.
- 680 Cinema Corp., Bernard Goldberg and Bruce Silverstein v. United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc., & Ackerman Enterprises, et al.This matter was filed on September 27, 1994 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Case Number CV9445554. Plaintiffs allege violation of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act and violation of Section 340 of New York State General Business Law. Plaintiffs allege that UATC's partners in the Staten Theatre Group partnership, Domenic Gatto, Meyer Ackerman and others, undertook specific action to thwart plaintiffs' entry into theatre exhibition on Staten Island. These actions allegedly included, among other things: attempting to monopolize and preclude competition in the relevant market; harassing the landlord of the Fox Plaza Theatre in a manner that resulted in defendants obtaining the lease to such theatre despite plaintiffs' allegedly better offer; alleged action to delay plaintiffs' opening of its Atrium Theatre; and defendants' alleged
150
conspiracy with film distributors to deny plaintiffs product for the Atrium Theatre. Plaintiffs allege $7,000,000.00 in actual damages, prior to trebling. The Debtors disagree with plaintiffs' contentions on this matter.

- 1033 Third Street Corporation v. United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc.This action was filed on December 27, 1999 in Superior Court, San Diego County, California, Case Number GIT740919. The plaintiff alleges breach of a lease dated October 30, 1980 for the Glasshouse Square Theatre in San Diego, California due to the Debtors' failure to pay rent, and the plaintiff demands damages and attorney's fees and costs. The Debtors allege that the plaintiff failed to mitigate its damages by unreasonably refusing to allow a sale agreement of the Glasshouse Theatre between UATC and a third party. The Debtors disagree with the plaintiff's contention on this matter. The plaintiff filed a motion for relief from the automatic stay in the Bankruptcy Court on November 21, 2000, and the Debtors filed an objection thereto on December 4, 2000. Unless otherwise resolved, the hearing on the plaintiff's motion is scheduled for December 8, 2000. If the motion is approved, the underlying California state court litigation will proceed so that the plaintiff can attempt to obtain a judgment and attempt to collect that judgment against an attachment release bond posted by the Debtors in the state court litigation (in settlement of the plaintiff's application for a prejudgment writ of attachment).

- Connie Arnold, et al. v. United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc. et al.This class action (the "Arnold Litigation") was originally commenced in California state court in 1991 against UATC by plaintiffs Connie Arnold and Ann Cupolo, among other named plaintiffs, both individually and as representatives of a class of persons similarly situated (the "Arnold Plaintiffs"), for alleged violations of state accessibility laws at UATC's movie theatres in California. The Arnold Litigation complaint was subsequently amended to include alleged violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12001et seq. (the "ADA") at UATC's movie theatres in California and nationwide. The Arnold Litigation was subsequently removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Ultimately, the Arnold Litigation was settled by and between the Arnold Plaintiffs, UATC and the United States Department of Justice (the "DOJ"), as party-intervenor, on March 28, 1996 (the "Settlement").
On August 14, 1996, the court granted final approval to the Settlement and entered an order approving the Settlement and an injunctive order enforcing the terms of the Settlement (collectively, the "Consent Decree"). The Consent Decree requires UATC to, among other things, make certain modifications to its chain of theatres to provide greater access to persons with mobility disabilities (i.e., to make "barrier modifications"). Under the Consent Decree, UATC may seek an extension of the Deadline if it cannot complete its barrier removal obligations by that Deadline without great difficulty, burden or expense. UATC, the DOJ, and the Arnold Plaintiffs disagree regarding the extent to which UATC has made the required barrier modifications under the Consent Decree.
It is UATC's position that, since 1996, it has worked diligently to comply with the terms of the Consent Decree and has made substantial progress towards that end. The Arnold Plaintiffs and the DOJ disagree with UATC's position in that regard. UATC is also of the position that, given its current financial circumstances, it is unable to complete the remainder of its obligations under the Consent Decree by the Deadline without great difficulty, burden and expense. To that end, UATC approached the Arnold Plaintiffs and the DOJ to obtain a consensual extension of the Deadline, but the parties were unable to reach an agreement.
On October 30, 2000, UATC filed a motion in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California and sought a limited transfer of venue of the Arnold Litigation to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware solely for the purpose of determining an appropriate extension of the Deadline. UATC argued that the determination
151
of an appropriate extension of the Deadline depended on UATC's financial condition and ability to fund future obligations, which were questions to be determined by the Delaware District Court as part of the plan confirmation process. The Arnold Plaintiffs and the DOJ opposed UATC's motion. The United States District Court for the Northern District of California conducted a hearing on UATC's motion on November 27, 2000, took the matter under advisement but has yet to rule on such motion. UATC is still attempting to obtain a consensual extension of the Deadline.
It is UATC's position that the Consent Decree is an executory contract which UATC may assume or reject in accordance with Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Plan. UATC is in the process of determining whether it will assume or reject the Consent Decree and shall indicate such determination in the List of Contracts and Leases to be filed on or before the Confirmation Date in accordance with Article VI.A.1 of the Plan. UATC's determination will depend on, among other things, its ability to obtain an acceptable extension of the Deadline, either consensually or as a result of a court order. If UATC assumes the Consent Decree, it will endeavor to comply with all of its obligations thereunder in accordance with Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. If UATC rejects the Consent Decree, then it is UATC's position that: (1) the Arnold Plaintiffs and the DOJ may be entitled to Unsecured Claims against UATC's estate in accordance with Section 365(g) of the Bankruptcy Code and Article VI.D. of the Plan; and (2) the Arnold Plaintiffs' and the DOJ's Claims against the Debtors arising from or relating to the Consent Decree shall be discharged in accordance with Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code and Articles X and XI of the Plan. The DOJ and the Arnold Plaintiffs reserve the right to dispute any of the above-referenced positions taken by UATC, including without limitation UATC's characterization of the order approving the settlement and the injunctive order enforcing the terms of the settlement as an executory contract subject to rejection.

POST-FILING DEVELOPMENTS
A. First Day Motions
On the Petition Date, the Debtors sought and obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court of certain motions and applications (the "First Day Motions") which the Debtors filed simultaneously with their petitions for relief commencing the Chapter 11 Cases. Set forth below is a brief summary of certain of the First Day motions filed by the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases.
The Debtors obtained an order authorizing the Debtors to perform obligations and to pay certain Claims arising under their customer service programs. This relief should enable the Debtors to maintain their important relationships with their customers.
The Debtors obtained an order authorizing the Debtors to pay and honor their prepetition obligations to employees in the ordinary course of business. Consistent with this order, the Debtors are continuing to honor their obligations to employees (including, but not limited to, vacation pay and other benefits) in accordance with applicable law and internal United Artists policies and such policies shall be unaffected by the Plan. This relief should enable the Debtors to maintain their excellent relationships with their employees.
158
The Debtors obtained an order authorizing them to assume executory film licensing and cooperative and other advertising contracts with their film studios and distributors, or, alternatively to pay the prepetition Claims of film studios and distributors. Consistent with this Order, the Debtors have continued to pay film license fees and cooperative and other advertising fees in the ordinary course of business. This relief should enable the Debtors to maintain their long-standing and excellent relationships with their film suppliers.
Pursuant to this Motion, the Debtors obtained authorization to use their current cash management system and bank accounts.
Pursuant to this motion, the Debtors obtained an order establishing November 15, 2000 as the deadline for filing proofs of Claim and Equity Interests against the Debtors' estates. As of December 4, 2000, total amounts of Claims filed were approximately as follows: $17,416,000 of priority Claims; $2,230,411,000 of Secured Claims; and $849,846,000 of Unsecured Claims (the Debtors taking no position by this description as to the validity or invalidity of such Claims).
Pursuant to this motion, the Debtors obtained an order (1) authorizing them to reject certain unexpired leases of non-residential real property and (2) establishing procedures for the rejection of additional unexpired leases of non-residential real property in the future. Subsequently, the Debtors filed additional motions to reject certain additional unexpired leases of non-residential real property in the Chapter 11 Cases.
Pursuant to this motion, the Debtors obtained authorization, in their sole discretion and in the reasonable exercise of their business judgment, to pay the prepetition mechanics' liens claims in the ordinary course of the businesses up to $1,000,000.
Pursuant to this motion, the Debtors obtained authorization to pay the prepetition Claims of their essential trade creditors. This relief has enabled the Debtors to maintain their excellent relationships with their essential trade credit suppliers.
The Debtors obtained entry of both an interim order and a Final Order permitting borrowing under the DIP Facility and use of the cash collateral securing the Prepetition Bank Credit Facility. Proceeds from the DIP Facility and use of cash collateral have enabled the Debtors to operate their businesses during the Chapter 11 Cases and pay prepetition obligations (to the extent authorized by the Bankruptcy Court) and postpetition obligations.
As a result of this motion, the Bankruptcy Court: (1) scheduled hearings to approve the adequacy of the Disclosure Statement and to confirm the Plan; (2) established deadlines to object to the Disclosure Statement and the Plan; (3) approved a form of notice; (4) approved the Debtors'
159
solicitation materials; (5) approved the Debtors' procedures for solicitation; and (6) approved the Debtors' procedures for tabulation of ballots accepting or rejecting the Plan. The order granting the scheduling motion provides, in part, for the following events to occur in these Chapter 11 Cases:

B. Transfer of Involuntary Bankruptcy Case

D. United Artists Theatre Company/Trade Subcommittee of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.
After commencing the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors and the Trade Subcommittee of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors entered into good faith, arms-length negotiations concerning the treatment of Holders of Allowed Unsecured Class 2F Claims under the Plan. The Debtors and the Trade Subcommittee have reached an agreement regarding the Plan's treatment of such Holders of Allowed Class 2F Unsecured Claims and as a result executed the United Artists Theatre Company/Trade Subcommittee of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors Proposed Restructuring Term Sheet (the "Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet," a copy of which is contained in the Plan Supplement). The Trade Subcommittee Term Sheet essentially sets forth certain modifications to the terms of the Plan including: (1) the treatment of Unsecured Claims of UATC, including Unsecured Claims arising from UATC's rejection of certain unexpired leases under Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; (2) the method of the Debtors' determination of those unexpired leases and executory contracts which
160
the intend to assume, assume and assign or reject pursuant to the Plan; and (3) certain agreements regarding certain avoidance actions to be brought by the Debtors.

The Exit Facility will essentially consist of a revolving credit facility of up to $35 million, with a $10 million sub-limit for letters of credit. Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., an affiliate of BTCo, may arrange for other banks, financial institutions, and other "accredited investors" to provide a portion of the Exit Facility, and BTCo will act as a administrative agent for such lenders under the Exit Facility. A hearing on the Debtors' motion is scheduled for December 8, 2000. If the motion is approved, the Debtors will have the authority to take certain actions, including, but not limited to (i) the execution of the Exit Facility Commitment letter; and (ii) the making of any required payments and indemnifications necessary during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, as set forth in the Exit Facility Commitment Letter.

ARTICLE XV
RECOMMENDATION
In the opinion of the Debtors, the Plan is preferable to the alternatives described herein because it provides for a larger distribution to the Holders of Claims and Interests then would otherwise result in a liquidation under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code: In addition, any alternative other than Confirmation of the Plan could result in extensive delays and increased administrative expenses resulting in smaller distributions to the Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. Accordingly, the Debtors recommend that Holders of Claims and Equity Interests entitled to vote on the Plan support Confirmation of the Plan and vote to accept the Plan.
