C. Acceptance by Impaired Classes
Impaired Class 6, Impaired Class 7, Impaired Class 8, Impaired Class 9, Impaired Class 10, Impaired Class 11, Impaired Class 12 and Impaired Class 13 shall have accepted the Plan if (i) the holders of at least two-thirds in amount of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such classes have voted to accept the Plan and (ii) the holders of more than one-half in number of the Allowed Claims actually voting in such classes have voted to accept the Plan, in each case not counting the vote of any holder designated under section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.
D. Cramdown
The Debtors will request confirmation of the Plan, as it may be modified from time to time, under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors reserve the right to modify the Plan to the extent, if any, that confirmation pursuant to section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code requires modification.
E. Elimination Of Classes
Any Class that does not contain any Allowed Claims or any Claims temporarily allowed for voting purposes under Bankruptcy Rule 3018, as of the date of the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, shall be deemed to have been deleted from the Plan for purposes of (a) voting to accept or reject the Plan and (b) determining whether it has accepted or rejected the Plan under section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code.
F. Non-Confirmation Of Plan For Delaware Funding
In the event that Class 7 Canadian Senior Unsecured Note Claims do not vote to accept the Plan, the Debtors shall seek to confirm the Plan only with respect to CIT Group Inc. Upon such non-confirmation of the Plan solely with respect to Delaware Funding, all references herein to “the Debtors” and “the Reorganized Debtors” shall refer only to CIT Group Inc. and Reorganized CIT.
G. Treatment of Classes
Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, each of the holders of Claims and Interests in Classes 1 through 18 will receive the treatment described below.
This Plan has been amended to provide holders of Junior Subordinated Note Claims with a potential greater distribution of New Common Interests. As previously disclosed in the Offering Memorandum and Disclosure Statement and the First Amended Plan, the Debtors anticipated modifying the treatment of holders of Class 13 Junior Subordinated Note Claims to provide an increased percentage of 1.5% of New Common Interests, and this Plan has accordingly been so modified. The increased percentage of New Common Interests distributable to holders of Junior Subordinated Note Claims to 1.5% in the event that Class 12 and Class 13 accept the Plan shall have ademinimis effect on the percentage of New Common Interests distributable to other holders of Claims under this Plan, which percentages will be ratably reduced. This possibility was previously described in the Offering Memorandum and Disclosure Statement dated
15
October 16, 2009. The Debtors do not believe that such increased percentage of New Common Interests distributable to holders of Junior Subordinated Note Claims requires resolicitation of the Offering Memorandum and Disclosure Statement and/or the Plan of Reorganization under applicable securities laws and/or the Bankruptcy Code, and the Debtors have not extended the Voting Deadline on this basis. If the Bankruptcy Court determines, however, that the increased percentage of New Common Interests distributable to holders of Junior Subordinated Note Claims, and the resulting change in percentages of New Common Interests distributable to other Classes, is a material change requiring resolicitation of the Plan of Reorganization, holders of Claims (including Junior Subordinated Note Claims) shall receive only those percentages of New Common Interests specified in the First Amended Plan.

The Disbursing Agent shall determine, in the exercise of its reasonable good faith discretion after consultation with a financial advisor, the amount of any distribution of New Common Interests required to be made on account of CVRs pursuant to this Article IV.H, including without limitation, the anticipated impact on Fair Market Value as a result of any distribution of New Common Interests required to be made hereunder on account of CVRs.

Reorganized CIT shall take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all New Common Interests distributed to holders of CVRs pursuant to this Article IV.H shall, at the time of distribution of such securities, be duly and validly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable.
5. | Agreements of CVR Holders |
Each holder of CVRs, by receiving a distribution hereunder of such CVRs, shall automatically be deemed to consent and agree with the Reorganized Debtors and with each other holder of CVRs that: (i) the CVRs are subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Plan, including this Article IV.H; (ii) the CVRs will not be represented by any certificates and may not be transferred or assigned; (iii) the CVRs do not bear any stated rate of interest; and (iv) no holder of CVRs shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of any securities of the Reorganized Debtors nor anything contained herein be construed to confer upon any holder of CVRs any of the rights of a stockholder of the Reorganized Debtors or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders, or to receive subscription rights, or to exercise appraisal rights, or otherwise.

I. | Letters of Credit Under JPM L/C Facility |
JPM shall hold all cash collateral on hand as of the Petition Date until the Effective Date, including any retainers established for JPM counsel specified in any cash collateral agreements between CIT Group Inc. and JPM.
JPM and the Debtors shall honor any and all draws under the JPM L/C Facility in the ordinary course of business and pursuant to the terms of the JPM L/C Facility Agreement. In the event of any drawings, such drawings made after the Petition Date but before the Effective Date, under any letter of credit issued under the JPM L/C Facility (i) to the extent JPM holds cash collateral supporting such drawn letter of credit, JPM shall be authorized to apply such cash collateral to the reimbursement obligation and the Debtors and JPM shall stipulate, and the Debtors shall seek Bankruptcy Court approval of any such stipulation, to lift the automatic stay to allow JPM to so apply such cash collateral and (ii) to the extent no cash collateral supports such drawn letter of credit, CIT Group Inc. or a subsidiary of CIT Group Inc. in the case of letters of credit for which a subsidiary of CIT Group Inc. is a co-applicant or account party shall pay the reimbursement obligation under such drawn letter of credit in full or cause it to be paid when due, in accordance with the JPM L/C Facility Agreement. As part of such stipulation, if approved by the Bankruptcy Court, JPM shall forbear, as long as the Plan is consummated by one hundred fifty (150) days from the Petition Date, and CIT Group Inc. is fulfilling its obligations under such stipulation, from pursuing any non-Debtor applicant, account party or other third party for satisfaction of a reimbursement obligation under any letter of credit issued and drawn under the JPM L/C Facility;provided that the forgoing forbearance is entirely contractual and does not constitute any admission that the automatic stay imposed by Bankruptcy Code section 362 or any other law requires such forbearance, and neither the Debtors nor the Reorganized Debtors nor any of their affiliates shall seek entry of an order during the Chapter 11 Cases restraining JPM from so pursing any such person or entity. JPM will not terminate any unexpired outstanding letters of credit without consent of CIT Group Inc. and any beneficiary thereunder,provided that the foregoing shall not prevent JPM from issuing a notice of non-renewal on any evergreen letter of credit for which such renewal would cause the next renewal date to extend past the expiry of the facility on May 14, 2010.
If Class 6 JPM L/C Facility Claims votes to accept the Plan, on, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Effective Date, Reorganized CIT or a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT in the case of letters of credit for which a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT is a co-applicant or account party shall provide JPM with the Cash Collateralization. All fees and other charges arising under or in respect of the JPM L/C Facility Agreement shall be paid on, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Effective Date by Reorganized CIT. In addition to the release provided in Article XIII.H. 1 of the Plan and in the Confirmation Order, upon the Effective Date each non-Debtor subsidiary and affiliate of CIT Group Inc. that was or is a co-applicant or account party on a letter of credit issued under the JPM L/C Facility and JPM and/or any other lender(s) under the JPM L/C Facility shall execute a mutual release and waiver of any and all claims against JPM and/or any other lenders under the JPM L/C Facility in respect of the JPM L/C Facility and/or the JPM L/C Facility Agreement arising prior to the Effective Date.
If Class 6 JPM L/C Facility Claims does not vote to accept the Plan and the Plan is nonetheless confirmed, (i) Reorganized CIT or a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT in the case of letters of credit for which a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT is a co-applicant or account party shall satisfy any Claims for reimbursement under the JPM L/C Facility that arose during the Chapter 11 Cases in full on, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Effective Date and (ii) following the Effective Date, Reorganized CIT or a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT in the case of letters of credit for which a subsidiary of Reorganized CIT is a co-applicant or account party shall pay all such Claims for reimbursement under the JPM L/C Facility in the ordinary course of business and upon the terms set forth in the JPM L/C Facility Agreement. In exchange for Reorganized CIT maintaining the reimbursement obligations in the immediately preceding (i) and (ii), JPM shall not pursue any subsidiary or affiliate of CIT Group Inc. or any other entity that JPM contends may be co-liable with CIT Group Inc. under the JPM L/C Facility Agreement for any remedies, claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to the JPM L/C Facility or the JPM L/C Facility Agreement.
33
JPM shall provide CIT Group Inc. and Reorganized CIT with updated reports in accordance with existing procedures of the amount of letters of credit outstanding and drawings, if any, thereunder and JPM’s application of cash collateral against CIT Group Inc.’s and/or Reorganized CIT’s reimbursement obligations. To the extent that, due to letters of credit expiring undrawn, the amount of cash collateral held by JPM shall at any time exceed the amount(s) provided pursuant to the Cash Collateralization, JPM shall release any such excess cash collateral to CIT Group Inc. and/or Reorganized CIT upon written request from CIT Group Inc. and/or Reorganized CIT.
No letters of credit shall be issued, renewed, extended or amended under the JPM L/C Facility after the Petition Date.

In the Confirmation Order, the Bankruptcy Court shall approve the Exit Facility and authorize the Reorganized Debtors to execute the same together with such other documents as the Exit Facility Lenders may reasonably require in order to effectuate the treatment afforded to such parties under the Exit Facility.
K. | Continued Existence and Vesting of Assets in Reorganized Debtors |

M. | Board of Directors |
CIT Group Inc.’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) (which as of the Petition Date had nine (9) members and as of the date of this Plan has eight (8) members) has determined that the appropriate size of the Board after the Effective Date would be thirteen (13) directors: (a) five of whom will consist of individuals who were serving as directors on November 1, 2009, (b) four of whom will be nominees proposed to the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (the “N&GC”) by the Steering Committee (the “Steering Committee Nominees”), (c) three of whom will be nominees (the “Debtholder Nominees”) proposed to the N&GC by CIT Group Inc. noteholders (other than members of the Steering Committee) owning more than 1% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of outstanding CIT bonds and unsecured bank debt claims (the “One-Percent Holders”) and (d) one of whom will be CIT’s Chief Executive Officer. At the request of and in cooperation with the Steering Committee, CIT Group Inc. has engaged Spencer Stuart, an internationally recognized director search firm, to assist the N&GC in identifying, interviewing and selecting Steering Committee Nominees. Spencer Stuart will identify Steering Committee Nominees who are independent of CIT Group Inc., not affiliated with, or representatives of, any of the members of the Steering Committee or the One-Percent Holders, and who possess the qualifications, skills and experience specified by the N&GC.
The candidates that are approved by the N&GC will be submitted to the full Board for consideration and approval for appointment to the Board, with such appointment subject to the review of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “Federal Reserve”). To the extent the N&GC or the Federal Reserve does not approve Steering Committee Nominees (whether such event occurs pre- or post-Effective Date), the Steering Committee shall be permitted to submit additional candidates to the N&GC until four members of the Board are Steering Committee Nominees.
N. | Certain Corporate Governance Matters |
On and after the Effective Date, Reorganized CIT will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to hold its next annual meeting no later than May 31, 2010.

35

O. | Preservation of Rights of Action; Settlement of Litigation Claims |
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Confirmation Order or in any document, instrument, release or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan, in accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors will retain all of the Litigation Claims, and may enforce, sue on, settle or compromise (or decline to do any of the foregoing) any or all of such Litigation Claims. The Debtors will file as a Plan Supplement a non-exclusive list of claims or causes of action that the Debtors hold or may hold either in pending or potential litigation. The Debtors reserve their rights to modify such list to add or delete parties or causes of action, but disclaims any obligation to do so. The failure of the Debtors to specifically list any claim, right of action, suit or proceeding herein or in the Plan does not, and will not be deemed to, constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of such claim, right of action, suit or proceeding, and the Reorganized Debtors will retain the right to pursue additional claims, rights of action, suits or proceedings. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, neither the Debtors nor any of their affiliates shall take any action which would constitute or effect a TRS Impairment, including without limitation asserting any claims or causes of action arising from Bankruptcy Code sections 544, 547 and 548, relating to the Amended and Restated Confirmation and any agreements entered into by one or more of the Debtors and GSI in connection therewith.

36
holders of such mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, or other security interests shall execute such documents as may be necessary or desirable to reflect or effectuate such releases.
ARTICLE V
PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS
A. | Distributions for Claims Allowed as of the Effective Date |
Except as otherwise provided herein or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, distributions to be made on account of or in exchange for Claims that are Allowed Claims as of the Effective Date shall be made on the Distribution Date. All Cash distributions shall be made from available Cash of the Reorganized Debtors. Any distribution under the Plan of property other than Cash shall be made by the Disbursing Agent in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
B. | Disbursing Agent(s) |
The Disbursing Agent(s) shall make all distributions required under the Plan (subject to the provisions of Articles II, III and IV hereof);provided,however, that with respect to a holder of a Claim whose distribution is governed by an agent or other agreement which is administered by an indenture trustee, agent or servicer, such distributions shall be made at the direction of the appropriate agent or servicer, or shall be deposited with the appropriate agent or servicer, who shall then deliver such distributions to the holders of Claims in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the terms of the relevant indenture or other governing agreement.
Disbursing Agent(s) other than the Debtors, including any agent or servicer, shall receive, without further Bankruptcy Court approval, reasonable compensation for distribution services rendered pursuant to the Plan and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such services from the Reorganized Debtors on terms acceptable to the Reorganized Debtors. No Disbursing Agent shall be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. If otherwise so ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring any such bond shall be paid by the Reorganized Debtors.
C. | Calculation of Distribution Amounts of New Common Interests and New Notes |
No fractional shares of New Common Interests or fractional currencies of New Notes shall be issued or distributed under the Plan or by the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer. Each Person entitled to receive New Common Interests or New Notes (collectively, the “New Securities”) shall receive the total number of whole shares or currencies of New Securities to which such Person is entitled. Whenever any distribution to a particular Person would otherwise call for distribution of a fraction of a New Security, the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer, shall allocate separately one whole share of New Common Interests or one whole currency of New Notes, as applicable, to such Person in order of the fractional portion of its entitlements, starting with the largest such fractional portion, until all remaining whole shares of New Common Interests or whole currencies of New Notes have been allocated. Upon the allocation of a whole share of New Common Interests or whole currency of New Notes to a Person in respect of the fractional portion of its entitlement, such fractional portion shall be deemed cancelled. If two or more Persons are entitled to equal fractional entitlements and the number of Persons so entitled exceeds the number of whole shares of New Common Interests or currencies of New Notes which remain to be allocated, the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer shall allocate the remaining whole shares of New Common Interests or whole currency of New Notes to such holders by random lot or such other impartial method as the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer deems fair. Upon the allocation of all of the whole shares of New Common Interests or currencies of New Notes
37
authorized under the Plan, all remaining fractional portions of the entitlements, if any, shall be cancelled and shall be of no further force and effect. No shares of New Common Interests or currencies of New Notes will be issued and no other property will be distributed under the Plan or by the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer on account of entitlements, if any, to a fractional share of New Common Interests or fraction of a currency of New Notes which fall below a threshold level to be determined by the Reorganized Debtors, or any Disbursing Agent, agent or servicer, after allocation of whole shares of New Common Interests or whole currencies of New Notes in respect of fractional entitlements as described above. Accordingly, a Person who otherwise would be entitled to receive a distribution of a fractional share of New Common Interests or fraction of a currency of New Notes will not receive any such distribution if the fractional share of New Common Interests or fractional currency of New Notes such Person was to receive falls below such threshold.
D. | Delivery of Distributions; Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions |
Distributions to holders of Allowed Claims shall be made by the Disbursing Agent (i) at each holder’s address set forth in the Debtors’ books and records, unless such address is superseded by a proof of claim or interest or transfer of claim filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3001 or (ii) at the address in any written notice of address change delivered to the Disbursing Agent, at the address set forth in the Disbursing Agent’s system. If any holder’s distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions to such holder shall be made, unless and until the Disbursing Agent is notified of such holder’s then current address, at which time all missed distributions shall be made to such holder without interest. Amounts in respect of undeliverable distributions made through the Disbursing Agent shall be returned to the Reorganized Debtors until such distributions are claimed. The Disbursing Agent shall deliver any non-deliverable New Common Interests and/or New Notes to the Reorganized Debtors no later than ten (10) Business Days following the first anniversary of the Effective Date. All claims for undeliverable distributions must be made within one year after the Effective Date, after which date the claim of any holder or successor to such holder with respect to such property will be discharged and forever barred. In such cases, any Cash for distribution on account of or in exchange for unclaimed or undeliverable distributions shall become property of the Reorganized Debtors free of any restrictions thereon and notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Any New Common Interests or New Notes held for distribution on account of such Claim shall be cancelled and of no further force or effect. Nothing contained in the Plan shall require any Disbursing Agent, including, but not limited to the Reorganized Debtors, to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed Claim.
E. | Withholding and Reporting Requirements |
In connection with the Plan and all distributions thereunder, the Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent shall comply with all withholding, payment, and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions shall be subject to any such withholding, payment, and reporting requirements. The Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding, payment, and reporting requirements. All amounts properly withheld from distributions of New Common Interests, New Notes, Contingent Value Rights, or New Common Interests distributed pursuant to the Contingent Value Rights, to a holder as required by applicable law and paid over to the applicable taxing authority for the account of such holder shall be treated as part of the distributions to such holder. All persons holding Claims or Interests shall be required to provide any information necessary to effect information reporting, withholding, and payment of such taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, (i) each holder of an Allowed Claim that is to receive a distribution of New Common Interests, New Notes or Contingent Value Rights pursuant to the Plan, or a distribution of New Common Interests pursuant to the Contingent Value Rights, shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any governmental unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution, and (ii) no distribution shall be made to or on behalf of such holder pursuant to the Plan unless and until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to the Reorganized Debtors and the Disbursing Agent for the payment and satisfaction of such tax obligations or has, to the Reorganized Debtors’ and the Disbursing Agent’s satisfaction, established an exemption therefrom. Any New Common Interests, New Notes or Contingent Value Rights to be distributed pursuant to the Plan, or New Common Interests distributed pursuant to the Contingent Value Rights, shall, pending the implementation of such arrangements or the establishment of such an exemption, be treated as undeliverable pursuant to Article V.D of the Plan.
38
F. | Allocation of Plan Distributions Between Principal and Interest |
To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, such distribution shall, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be allocated to the principal amount of the Claim first and then, to the extent that the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to the portion of such Claim representing accrued but unpaid interest.
G. | Setoffs |
Except as provided in the Plan, the Debtors may, but shall not be required to, set off or offset against any Claim, and the payments or other distributions to be made pursuant to the Plan in respect of such Claim, claims of any nature whatsoever that the Debtors may have against the Claim’s holder;provided,however, that neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the Debtors of any claim that the Debtors may have against such holder;provided,further,however, that the Debtors shall not set off or offset against the Senior Credit Facility, the Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes, the Long-Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Term Loans, the Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, the Senior Subordinated Notes or the Junior Subordinated Notes. Nothing herein shall be deemed to expand rights to setoff under applicable law.
H. | Surrender of Instruments or Securities |
The Disbursing Agent(s) and/or any applicable broker or agent shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the surrender of all certificates or instruments relating to the Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), the Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Term Loans, the Long-Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, the Senior Subordinated Notes or the Junior Subordinated Notes to the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the Disbursing Agent and shall execute such other documents as might be necessary to effectuate the Plan. The Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), the Long-Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Notes, the Senior Unsecured Term Loans, the Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Junior Subordinated Notes shall be marked as cancelled on and as of the Effective Date, regardless of whether the holder(s) of such Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), Long- Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Term Loans, Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, Senior Subordinated Notes and Junior Subordinated Notes has surrendered its certificates and instruments.
Any holder of Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), Long-Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Term Loans, Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, Senior Subordinated Notes or Junior Subordinated Notes who fails to surrender the applicable Canadian Senior Unsecured Notes (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Term Loans, Senior Unsecured Credit Agreements, Senior Subordinated Notes or Junior Subordinated Notes required to be tendered under the Plan or fails to deliver an affidavit of loss or such other documents as might be required by the relevant trustee or agent, together with an indemnity in the customary form within one (1) year after the Effective Date shall have its Claim and its distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of such Canadian Senior Unsecured Note Claim (if Class 7 votes to accept the plan), Long-Dated Senior Unsecured Notes, Senior Unsecured Note Claim, Senior Unsecured Term Loan Claim, Senior Unsecured Credit Agreement Claim, Senior Subordinated Note Claim or Junior Subordinated Note Claim discharged and forfeited and shall not participate in any distribution under the Plan.

ARTICLE VI
PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED,
CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS
CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS
A. | Resolution of Disputed Claims |
Except as provided otherwise in the Plan or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, holders of Claims shall not be required to file proofs of Claim with the Bankruptcy Court. The amount and validity of any disputed, contingent and/or unliquidated Claim shall be determined, resolved or adjudicated, as the case may be, in the manner in which such Claim would have been determined, resolved or adjudicated if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced;provided,however, that the Debtors reserve the right to file with the Bankruptcy Court, on or before the Claims Objection Deadline, an objection to any Claim. The Debtors shall be authorized to, and shall, resolve all Disputed Claims by withdrawing or settling such objections thereto, or by litigating to judgment in the Bankruptcy Court or such other court having jurisdiction the validity, nature, and/or amount thereof.
Any Claim successfully subordinated pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 510(b) that is not otherwise included in Class 14 Subordinated 510(b) Claims shall be classified in that Class immediately below the Class in which such Claim was classified prior to subordination under Bankruptcy Code section 510(b).
In addition, the Debtors or the holder of a contingent or unliquidated Claim may, at any time, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtors have previously 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 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 maximum limitation on such Claim, the Debtors may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate payment on such Claim. All of
40
the aforementioned Claims objection, estimation and resolution procedures are cumulative and are not necessarily exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and thereafter resolved by any permitted mechanism.
B. | No Distribution Pending Allowance |
No payments or distributions, if any contemplated by the Plan, will be made with respect to all or any portion of a Disputed Claim unless and until all objections to such Disputed Claim have been settled or withdrawn or have been determined by Final Order, and the Disputed Claim, or some portion thereof, has become an Allowed Claim.
C. | Distributions After Allowance |
To the extent that a Disputed Claim ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, a distribution, if any, will be made to the holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, or the date upon which other final resolution has been reached to Allow such Claim, the Disbursing Agent shall provide to the holder of such Claim the distribution to which such holder is entitled under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Disbursing Agent shall not be required to make distributions more frequently than once every ninety (90) days.
D. | Reservation of Right to Object to Allowance or Asserted Priority of Claims |
Except as expressly provided in the Plan, nothing herein will waive, prejudice or otherwise affect the rights of the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors or the holders of any Claim to object at any time, including after the Effective Date, to the allowance or asserted priority of any Claim.
ARTICLE VII
TREATMENT OF CONTRACTS AND LEASES
A. | Assumed Contracts and Leases |
Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan, as of the Effective Date the Debtors shall be deemed to have assumed each executory contract and unexpired lease to which a Debtor is a party unless such contract or lease (i) previously was assumed or rejected by the Debtors, (ii) previously expired or terminated pursuant to its own terms, (iii) is listed on Exhibit H hereto or (iv) is the subject of a motion to assume or reject filed on or before the Confirmation Date. The Debtors shall further be deemed to assume as of the Effective Date all indemnification obligations, whether arising by bylaws, other constituent documents or otherwise, to the Debtors’ directors and officers and all such indemnification obligations shall constitute assumed executory contracts. The Debtors reserve the right, at any time prior to the Confirmation Date, to seek to reject any executory contract or unexpired lease to which a Debtor is a party (except as provided in the preceding sentence). The Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court under sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code approving the contract and lease assumptions described above as of the Effective Date.
Each executory contract and unexpired lease that is assumed and relates to the use, ability to acquire or occupancy of real property shall include (i) all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument or other document that in any manner affect such executory contract or unexpired lease and (ii) all executory contracts or unexpired leases appurtenant to the
41
premises, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, powers, uses, usufructs, reciprocal easement agreements, vaults, tunnel or bridge agreements or franchises, and any other interests in real estate or rights in rem related to such premises, unless any of the foregoing agreements has been rejected pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court or is the subject of a motion to reject filed on or before the Confirmation Date.
B. | Treatment of Change of Control Provisions |
The entry of the Confirmation Order, consummation of the Plan, issuance of the New Common Interests and/or New Notes under the Plan and/or any other acts taken to implement the Plan shall not constitute a “change in control” under any provision of any contract, agreement or other document which provides for the occurrence of any event, the granting of any right, or any other change in the then-existing relationship between the parties upon a “change in control” of the Debtors.
C. | Payments Related to Assumption of Contracts and Leases |
Any monetary amounts by which any executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed under the Plan is in default shall be satisfied, under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by Cure. If there is a dispute regarding (i) the nature or amount of any Cure, (ii) the ability of the Reorganized Debtors to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the contract or lease to be assumed or (iii) any other matter pertaining to assumption, Cure shall occur following the entry of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court resolving the dispute and approving the assumption.
D. | Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases |
If the rejection by the Debtors, pursuant to the Plan or otherwise, of an executory contract or unexpired lease gives rise to a Claim, a proof of Claim must be served upon the Debtors and their counsel within thirty (30) days after the later of (i) notice of entry of the Confirmation Order or (ii) other notice that the executory contract or unexpired lease has been rejected,provided that any such Claims arising from the rejection of an unexpired lease of real property shall be subject to the cap on rejection damages imposed by Bankruptcy Code section 502(b)(6). Any Claims not served within such time periods will be forever barred from assertion against the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Estates and their property.
E. | Claims Based on Rejection of Employment Agreements |
In the event that the Debtors determine to reject any employment agreements to which the Debtors are party, any rejection damages claims arising therefrom will be classified as Class 5 General Unsecured Claims and will likewise be Unimpaired;provided that the Debtors and/or the Reorganized Debtors pay such non-debtor party or parties to such rejected employment agreement(s) the one-year’s compensation under Bankruptcy Code section 502(b) (7) on account of any rejection damages claim(s).
F. | Compensation and Benefit Plans and Treatment of Retirement Plan |
Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan and subject to any limitations under applicable law, all of the Debtors’ programs, plans, agreements and arrangements relating to employee compensation and benefits, including programs, plans, agreements and arrangements subject to sections 1114 and 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code and including, without limitation, all savings plans, retirement plans, healthcare plans, disability plans, severance plans, incentive plans (providedthat any equity-based awards with respect to Old Common Interests issued pursuant to incentive plans shall be canceled in accordance with Article IV.L of this Plan),
42
life, accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, and employment, severance, salary continuation and retention agreements entered into before the Petition Date and not since terminated, will be deemed to be, and will be treated as though they are, executory contracts that are assumed under Article VII.A of the Plan, and the Debtors’ obligations under such programs, plans, agreements and arrangements will survive confirmation of the Plan, except for executory contracts or plans that previously have been rejected, are the subject of a motion to reject or have been specifically waived by the beneficiaries of any plans or contracts. In addition, pursuant to the requirements of section 1 129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan provides for the continuation of payment by the Debtors of all “retiree benefits,” as defined in section 1114(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, if any, at previously established levels. Reorganized CIT will continue to maintain and administer the CIT Group Inc. Retirement Plan (as such retirement plan may be amended, modified or otherwise supplemented) pursuant to this Article VII.F and obligations related to the CIT Group Inc. Retirement Plan will not be affected by confirmation of this plan of reorganization, including by discharge;providedhowever that nothing in the Confirmation Order or the Plan shall limit or otherwise affect any rights CIT Group Inc. and/or Reorganized CIT has to amend, modify or otherwise supplement such CIT Group Inc. Retirement Plan in accordance with its terms and/or applicable law.
G. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers |
The Debtors’ indemnification obligations in favor of their officers and directors contained in the certificates of incorporation and bylaws of the Debtors as of the Petition Date shall be included in the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated certificate of formation and bylaws of the Reorganized Debtors. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, all Claims of the Debtors’ officers and directors for indemnity arising prior to the Petition Date (including the D&O Claims) shall be deemed to be Class 5 General Unsecured Claims hereunder, and all Claims of the Debtors’ officers and directors for indemnity arising on and after the Petition Date shall be deemed to be Administrative Claims hereunder.
