And the Bankruptcy Court having:

set July 30, 2019 at 12:30 p.m. (CDT) as the date and time for the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing;

reviewed the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Confirmation Brief, the Confirmation Declaration, the Voting Report, and all pleadings, and exhibits, statements, responses and comments regarding Confirmation, including all objections, statements and reservation of rights filed by parties in interest on the docket of these Chapter 11 Cases;

considered all oral representations, testimony, documents, filings, and other evidence regarding Confirmation; and

overruled any and all objections to the Plan and to Confirmation and all statements and reservations of rights not consensually resolved or withdrawn unless otherwise indicated.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Bankruptcy Court having found that notice of the Confirmation Hearing and the opportunity for any party affected by the Plan and the transactions contemplated thereby to object to Confirmation having been adequate and appropriate; and the record of these Chapter 11 Cases and the legal and factual bases set forth in the documents filed in support of Confirmation and presented at the Confirmation Hearing including, but not limited to, statements of counsel and all other testimony and other evidence proffered, adduced, admitted into evidence and presented at the Confirmation Hearing, establish just cause for the relief

granted in this Confirmation Order; and after due deliberation thereon and good cause appearing therefor, the Bankruptcy Court hereby makes and issues the following findings of fact, conclusions of law and order:

FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

IT IS HEREBY DETERMINED, FOUND, ADJUDGED, DECREED AND ORDERED THAT:

A. Findings and Conclusions. The determinations, findings, judgments, decrees, orders and conclusions set forth in this Confirmation Order and in the record of the Confirmation Hearing constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052, made applicable to this proceeding pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9014. To the extent any of the following findings of fact constitute conclusions of law, they are adopted as such. To the extent any of the following conclusions of law constitute findings of fact, they are adopted as such.

B. Judicial Notice. The Bankruptcy Court takes judicial notice of the docket in these Chapter 11 Cases maintained by the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, including, without limitation, all pleadings and other documents filed, all orders entered, and evidence and arguments made, proffered, and adduced at the hearings held before the Bankruptcy Court during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases.

JURISDICTION AND VENUE

C. Exclusive Jurisdiction; Venue; Core Proceeding. The Bankruptcy Court has jurisdiction over these Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334. Venue in the Bankruptcy Court is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409. The confirmation of the Plan constitutes a core proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2) upon which the Bankruptcy Court may issue a final order, and confirmation of a plan by the Bankruptcy Court is a constitutional

exercise of the jurisdiction conferred by Congress on the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court has exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and should be confirmed.

D. Retention of Jurisdiction. The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the Bankruptcy Court’s retention of jurisdiction as set forth in Article X of the Plan is consistent with 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334.

Notice, Solicitation and Acceptance

E. Adequate Notice of Confirmation Hearing. In accordance with Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 3019 and 9019, the Disclosure Statement Order, the Disclosure Statement, and various notices filed on the docket relating to the scheduling of the Confirmation Hearing (including, without limitation, Docket No. 727 & 832), the Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that (a) proper, timely and adequate notice of the time for filing objections to the Plan was provided, and (b) proper, timely and adequate notice of the Confirmation Hearing was provided to all Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. No other or further notice of the Confirmation Hearing is necessary or required.

F. Good Faith Solicitation (11 U.S.C. § 1125(e)). The evidence proffered or adduced at, or prior to, the Confirmation Hearing (i) is reasonable, persuasive and credible, (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions, (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence, (iv) establishes that the Debtors and each of their respective Related Persons have furnished adequate information and solicited acceptances or rejections of the Plan in good faith and in full compliance with all applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and any applicablenon-bankruptcy law, rule or regulation governing the adequacy of disclosure in connection with such solicitation and (v) establishes that

the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and each of their respective Related Persons will, as applicable, continue to act in good faith if they consummate the Plan and the agreements, settlements, transactions and transfers contemplated thereby, and take all other actions authorized by this Confirmation Order. Accordingly, each of the foregoing Persons is entitled to and, pursuant to this Confirmation Order, granted the full protections afforded by section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

G. Voting Report. On July 26, 2019, the Debtors filed the Voting Report certifying the method and results of Ballot tabulation for each of the Classes entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan. All procedures used to tabulate the Ballots were fair and conducted in accordance with the Disclosure Statement Order, the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws and regulations.

H. Plan Supplement. On July 23, 2019, the Debtors filed the Plan Supplement [Docket No. 831], as further amended by Docket No. 866, which included (i) the Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement; (ii) the terms of the New Secured Financing; (iii) the Plan Equity Value; (iv) the form of New Warrants; (v) the form of Old Equity Settlement Warrants; (vi) the initial percentage of the Management Incentive Plan allocable to the MIP Participants; (vii) a list of certain members of the New Board; (viii) the schedule of assumed contracts and each applicable Cure Claim Amount; and (ix) a description of the retained Causes of Action. All such materials comply with the Plan, and the filing and notice of such documents is good and proper in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and all other applicable rules, laws and regulations, and no other or further notice is or shall be required.

I. Burden of Proof. The Debtors, as proponents of the Plan, have met their burden of proving the satisfaction of the requirements of sections 1129(a) and (b) of the Bankruptcy

Code by a preponderance of the evidence, which is the applicable evidentiary standard. Further, each witness whose testimony was proffered or adduced on behalf of the Debtors at or in connection with the Confirmation Hearing was credible, reliable and qualified to testify as to the topics addressed in his or her testimony.

J. Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a). In accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a), the Plan is dated and identifies the Debtors as the proponents of the Plan.

Compliance with Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code

K. Plan Compliance with 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(1). In accordance with Section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the Plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

Proper Classification (11 U.S.C. §§ 1122 & 1123(a)(1)). In accordance with Sections 1122(a) and 1123(a), the Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that, in addition to Administrative Claims, Priority Tax Claims and Other Priority Claims, which need not be classified, the Plan classifies ten (10) Classes of Claims and Equity Interests based on the differences in the legal nature and/or priority of such Claims and Equity Interests. The Claims and Equity Interests placed in each Class are substantially similar to the other Claims or Equity Interests, as the case may be, in each such Class and such Classes do not unfairly discriminate between or among Holders of Claims and Equity Interests. Valid business, factual and legal reasons exist for separately classifying the various Classes of Claims and Equity Interests under the Plan. Thus, the Plan satisfies sections 1122 and 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Specified Unimpaired Classes (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(2)). Article III of the Plan specifies that Class 1 (Other Secured Claims), Class 3 (Blue Torch Claim), and Class 9 (Intercompany Interests) (each, an “Unimpaired Class”) are Unimpaired under the Plan, thereby satisfying section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Specified Treatment of Impaired Classes (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(3)). Article III of the Plan specifies that Claims in Class 2 (Thirty Two Claim), Class 4 (Aircraft Lessor Claims), Class 5 (General Unsecured Claims), Class 6 (Convenience Claims), Class 7 (Intercompany Claims), Class 8 (Subordinated Claims) and Class 10 (Existing PHI Interests) (each, an “Impaired Class”) are Impaired within the meaning of section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code and clearly specifies the treatment of the Claims and

Equity Interests in those Classes, thereby satisfying the requirements of section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.

No Discrimination (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(4)). The Plan provides for the same treatment by the Debtors for each Claim or Equity Interest in each respective Class unless the Holder of a particular Claim or Equity Interest has agreed to less favorable treatment of such Claim or Equity Interest, thereby satisfying section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Implementation of the Plan (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(5)). The Plan and the various documents and agreements set forth in the Plan Supplement provide adequate and proper means for implementation of the Plan, thereby satisfying section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, (i) the corporate documents that will govern the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date, the First Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of PHI Group, Inc., and theBy-Laws of PHI Group, Inc. (or the respective corporate documents of its ultimate parent), (ii) the entry into the Restructuring Transactions, including without limitation, the merger provisions related to PHI, Inc. that will result in a reduction in the number of holders entitled to receive Old Equity Settlement Warrants and any other actions that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the transactions described in, contemplated under, or necessary to effectuate the Plan, (iii) the entry into the Registration Rights Agreement, (iv) the entry into, and incurrence of new indebtedness under, the New Secured Financing; (v) the Minimum Cash Commitment Exchange and the entry into the Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement; (vi) the issuance of New Common Stock and New Warrants for distribution under the Plan; and (vii) the issuance of the Old Equity Settlement Warrants.

Non-Voting Equity Securities (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(6)). The Plan provides that the respective organizational documents of each of the Reorganized Debtors shall be amended and restated or replaced (as applicable), including a provision prohibiting the issuance ofnon-voting equity securities, thereby satisfying section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Selection of Directors and Officers (11 U.S.C. §1123(a)(7)).

On July 23, 2019, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court a list of initial members of the Board of Directors of Reorganized PHI, Inc. (or its ultimate parent) (the “New Board List”) as Exhibit I to the Plan Supplement, identifying five (5) of the seven (7) directors who are expected to serve in such capacity. The remaining two (2) directors will be independent directors and the Debtors, selected by the Creditors’ Committee with the assistance of Russell Reynolds & Associates (subject to certain consent rights contained in the Plan), have begun the process to select those remaining independent directors. The Plan provisions

governing the manner of selection of any officer, director, or manager of the Reorganized Debtors are consistent with the interests of creditors and equity security holders and with public policy in accordance with section 1123(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Additional Plan Provisions (11 U.S.C. §1123(b)). The Plan contains certain provisions that may be construed as permissive, but are not required for confirmation under the Bankruptcy Code. These discretionary provisions comply with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, are appropriate, in the best interests of the Debtors and their Estates and are not inconsistent with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, provisions for (i) the assumption and rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases; and (ii) releases and exculpation of various Persons and Entities.

The Debtors are Not Individuals (11 U.S.C. §1123(c)). The Debtors are not individuals and, accordingly, section 1123(c) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable in these Chapter 11 Cases.

Cure of Defaults (11 U.S.C. §1123(d)). Article V.B of the Plan provides for the satisfaction of Cure Claim Amounts by the Debtors in connection with any assumption or assumption and assignment of executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to section 365(b)(1), thereby satisfying sections 365 and 1123(d) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Identification of Plan (Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a)). The Plan is dated and identifies the entities submitting it, thereby satisfying Bankruptcy Rule 3016(a). The filing of the Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court satisfied Bankruptcy Rule 3016(b).

L. Debtors’ Compliance with the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. §1129(a)(2)). The Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(2). Specifically, the Debtors are proper debtors under section 109 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Debtors have complied with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and the Disclosure Statement Order in transmitting the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, the Ballots and all related documents and notices, and in soliciting and tabulating votes on the Plan.

M. Plan Proposed in Good Faith (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(3)). The Debtors engaged in extensive, arms’ length and good faith negotiations with their key constituencies which

culminated in the Settlements. Ultimately, the terms of the Settlements were incorporated into the Plan and, therefore, the Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the Debtors have proposed the Plan (including the Plan Supplement and all other agreements, documents and instruments necessary to effectuate the Plan) in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law, and the Debtors have acted, and are presently acting, in good faith in conjunction with all aspects of the Plan, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code. All transactions contemplated by the Plan were negotiated and consummated at arms’ length, without collusion, and in good faith. In determining that the Plan has been proposed in good faith, the Bankruptcy Court has examined the facts and records of these Chapter 11 Cases and the totality of the circumstances surrounding the formulation of the Settlement Stipulation and the Equity Committee Settlement Stipulation, the Plan, the solicitation of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement and the hearings thereon and the record of the Confirmation Hearing and other proceedings held in these Chapter 11 Cases. Consistent with the overriding purpose of the Bankruptcy Code, the Chapter 11 Cases were filed, and the Plan was proposed, with the legitimate and honest purpose of reorganizing the Debtors and maximizing the value of the Debtors’ assets.

N. Payment for Services or Costs and Expenses (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(4)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that all payments made or to be made by the Debtors for services or for costs and expenses in connection with these Chapter 11 Cases requiring approval, have been approved by, or are subject to the approval of, the Bankruptcy Court as reasonable, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court retains jurisdiction to hear and determine all applications for Accrued Professional Compensation Claims incurred on or before the Effective Date.

O. Disclosure and Identity of Proposed Management (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(5)). The Debtors have complied with section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan provides that, from and after the Effective Date, the board of directors of the ultimate parent of the Reorganized Debtors shall consist of those individuals listed on the New Board List, which constitutes adequate disclosure of such information. Further, on the Effective Date, the officers of the Reorganized Debtors shall be substantially the same as existed prior to the Effective Date, other than (i) on the Effective Date, Mr. Al A. Gonsoulin shall retire from his positions as Chief Executive Officer and chairman of the board of PHI, Inc., and (ii) Mr. Lance Bospflug, who shall be the Reorganized Debtors’ Chief Executive Officer, subject to the ordinary rights and powers of the New Board to remove or replace such officers in accordance with the Reorganized Debtors’ organizational documents, any applicable employment agreements entered into following the Effective Date, and applicable law.

P. No Rate Changes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(6)). The Plan does not provide for any rate change that requires regulatory approval. Thus, section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is not applicable to these Chapter 11 Cases.

Q. Best Interests of Creditors (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(7)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the Plan satisfies section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code. The liquidation analysis set forth inExhibit E of the Disclosure Statement and other evidence proffered or adduced at the Confirmation Hearing (a) are reasonable, persuasive and credible; (b) utilize reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions; (c) have not been controverted by other evidence; and (d) establish that each Holder of a Claim or Equity Interest in an Impaired Class either (i) has accepted the Plan or (ii) 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 it would receive if the Debtors were liquidated under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on such date.

R. Acceptance or Rejection of Certain Classes (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(8)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes, based on the Voting Report, that:


		i.		Class 1 (Other Secured Claims), Class 3 (Blue Torch Claim), and Class 9 (Intercompany Interests) are Unimpaired under the Plan and pursuant to section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan;

		ii.		Class 2 (Thirty Two Claim) is Impaired under the Plan and 100% in amount and 100% in number of Claims in that Class have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

		iii.		Class 4 (Aircraft Lessor Claims) is Impaired under the Plan and 100% in amount and 100% in number of Claims in that Class have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

		iv.		Class 5 (General Unsecured Claims) is Impaired under the Plan and 95.70% in amount and 91.35% in number of Claims in that Class have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

		v.		Class 6 (Convenience Claims) is Impaired under the Plan and 84.27% in amount and 89.80% in number of Claims in that Class have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code;

		vi.		Class 7 (Intercompany Claims) is Impaired under the Plan and because the Holders of Class 7 will not receive any distributions under the Plan, nor retain any property thereunder, they are conclusively deemed, under section 1126(g) of the Bankruptcy Code, to have rejected the Plan and are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan; and

		vii.		Class 8 (Subordinated Claims) is Impaired under the Plan, and because no holders in Class 8 voted to accept or reject the Plan, Class 8 is deemed to accept the Plan pursuant to Article III.E;

		viii.		Class 10 (Existing PHI Interests) is Impaired under the Plan and 75.14% in amount of Interests in that Class have voted to accept the Plan in accordance with section 1126(d) of the Bankruptcy Code.

All procedures used to tabulate the Ballots were fair, reasonable, and conducted in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the

Local Rules, and the Disclosure Statement Order. Accordingly, under the requirements of section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Court finds that the Plan is confirmable.

S. Treatment of Administrative and Priority Claims (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the Plan’s treatment of Administrative Claims (including but not limited to Accrued Professional Compensation Claims and Priority Tax Claims) pursuant to Article II of the Plan, satisfies the requirements set forth in sections 1129(a)(9)(A), (C), and (D) of the Bankruptcy Code, as applicable. The treatment of Other Priority Claims pursuant to Article II.D of the Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1129(a)(9)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors have sufficient Cash to pay Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims, and Allowed Other Priority Claims.

T. Acceptance by at Least One Impaired Class (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(10)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that Class 4 (Aircraft Lessor Claims), Class 5 (General Unsecured Claims), Class 6 (Convenience Claims), Class 8 (Subordinated Claims) and Class 10 (Existing PHI Interests) voted to accept the Plan by the requisite majorities, determined without including acceptances of the Plan by any insider. Accordingly, the requirements of section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

U. Feasibility (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(11)). Because the Plan is sufficiently funded from, among other things, the Minimum Cash Commitment, the New Secured Financing, and the Debtors’ Cash on hand, and because the Professional Fee Escrow Account will be funded with Cash equal to the Professional Fee Reserve Amount on the Effective Date, the evidence proffered or adduced at the Confirmation Hearing with respect to feasibility including the Confirmation Brief, (i) is reasonable, persuasive and credible, (ii) utilizes reasonable and appropriate methodologies and assumptions, (iii) has not been controverted by other evidence,

and (iv) establishes that the Plan is feasible and that there is a reasonable prospect of the Debtors being able to meet their financial obligations under the Plan and that Confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by the need for further financial reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors or any successor to the Reorganized Debtors, thereby satisfying the requirements of section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code.

V. Payment of Statutory Fees (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(12)). All fees due and payable pursuant to section 1930 of Title 28 of the U.S. Code prior to the Effective Date shall be paid by the Debtors. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay any and all such fees when due and payable, and shall file with the Bankruptcy Court quarterly reports in a form reasonably acceptable to the United States Trustee. Except as provided in the Plan, each Debtor shall remain obligated to pay quarterly fees to the United States Trustee until the earliest of that particular Debtor’s case being closed, dismissed, or converted to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that fees payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930 have been paid or will be paid by the Debtors pursuant to Article XII.D of the Plan, thereby satisfying section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code.

W. No Retiree Benefits (11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(13)). The Debtors do not have obligations to pay retiree benefits and, therefore, section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable.

X. Non-Applicability of Certain Sections (11 U.S.C. §§ 1129(a)(14), (15), and (16)). The Debtors do not owe any domestic support obligations, are not individuals, and are not nonprofit corporations, and thus sections 1129(a)(14), 1129(a)(15) and 1129(a)(16) of the Bankruptcy Code do not apply to the Chapter 11 Cases.

Y. No Unfair Discrimination; Fair and Equitable (11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)). Class 7 (Intercompany Claims) is deemed to have rejected the Plan. Accordingly, the Plan is being confirmed under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan does not discriminate unfairly and is fair and equitable with respect to these two Classes, as required by sections 1129(b)(1) and (b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Z. Only One Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1129(c)). Other than the Plan (including previous versions thereof), no other plan has been filed for the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases, and the Plan thereby satisfies the requirements of section 1129(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

AA. Principal Purpose of Plan (11 U.S.C. § 1129(d)). The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that the principal purpose of the Plan is not the avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77e).

AB. Small Business Case (11 U.S.C. § 1129(e)). None of these Chapter 11 Cases is a “small business case,” as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code, and, accordingly, section 1129(e) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable.

AC. Satisfaction of Confirmation Requirements. Based on the foregoing, all other pleadings, documents, exhibits, statements, declarations, and affidavits filed in connection with Confirmation of the Plan and all evidence and arguments made, proffered or adduced at the Confirmation Hearing, the Plan satisfies the requirements for confirmation set forth in section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

AD. Substantive Consolidation. The Plan serves as, and is deemed to be, a motion for entry of an order substantively consolidating the Chapter 11 Cases for the limited purposes set forth in the Plan. Based upon the evidence adduced and admitted and arguments made in the Confirmation Brief and the statements made at the Confirmation Hearing and the record of these

Chapter 11 Cases, substantive consolidation of the Debtors’ Estates as provided for in the Plan under Article IV.A is appropriate.

AE. Implementation of Other Necessary Documents and Agreements. All documents and agreements necessary or advisable to implement or carry out the Plan, including but not limited to the Settlements and the other documents contained in the Plan Supplement, are essential elements of the Plan and entry into and consummation of the transactions contemplated by each such document and agreement is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates and holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and shall, upon completion of documentation and execution and delivery, be valid, binding, and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and conditions. The Debtors have exercised reasonable business judgment in determining which documents and agreements to enter into and have provided sufficient and adequate notice of such documents and agreements. The terms and conditions of such documents and agreements have been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s length, are fair and reasonable and are reaffirmed and approved, subject to the consent rights under the Plan. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, are authorized, without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to finalize, execute and deliver all agreements, documents, instruments and certificates relating thereto and perform their obligations thereunder in accordance with the Plan.

AF. Plan Supplement. The materials contained in the Plan Supplement comply with the terms of the Plan, subject to the consent rights under the Plan, and the filing and notice of such documents and the transactions contemplated therein was good and proper in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules and the Local Rules, and no other or further notice is or shall be required. The Debtors are authorized to modify any of the documents

contained in the Plan Supplement in accordance with the Plan through and including the Effective Date, subject to any consent rights in the Settlements. All documents included in the Plan Supplement, except certain disclosures therein related to the Management Incentive Plan, which were included in the Plan Supplement for disclosure purposes only in accordance with section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code, are integral to, part of, and incorporated by reference into the Plan. To the extent that any modifications to the Plan Supplement are determined to be modifications to the Plan, in accordance with Bankruptcy Rule 3019, any such modifications do not (i) constitute material modifications of the Plan under section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) require additional disclosure under section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code, (iii) cause the Plan to fail to meet the requirements of sections 1122 or 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, (iv) materially and adversely change the treatment of any Claims or Equity Interests, (v) requirere-solicitation of any holders of Claims or Equity Interests, or (vi) require that any such holders be afforded an opportunity to change previously cast acceptances or rejections of the Plan. In accordance with section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 3019, all holders of Claims or Equity Interests who voted to accept the Plan or who are conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan are deemed to have accepted the Plan to the extent modified by the Plan Supplement, and no holder of a Claim or Equity Interest that has voted to accept the Plan shall be permitted to change its acceptance to a rejection as a consequence thereof.

AG. Plan Provisions Valid and Binding. The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that, upon entry of this Confirmation Order, each term and provision of the Plan is valid, binding, and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

AH. Plan Documents Valid and Binding. The Bankruptcy Court finds and concludes that any and all documents necessary to implement the Plan, including those contained in the

Plan Supplement (subject to any consent rights under the Plan), have been negotiated in good faith and at arms’ length, and shall be, upon completion of documentation and execution and delivery, valid, binding, and enforceable agreements and not be in conflict with any federal or state law.

II. Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. The Debtors have exercised their reasonable business judgment in determining whether to assume or reject executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to Article V of the Plan. Each assumption, assumption and assignment, and rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to Article V of the Plan shall be legal, valid and binding to the same extent as if such assumption, assumption and assignment, or rejection, as applicable, had been effectuated pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code entered before entry of this Confirmation Order. Moreover, the Debtors have cured, or provided adequate assurance that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors will cure defaults (if any) under or relating to each of the executory contracts and unexpired leases that are being assumed by the Reorganized Debtors pursuant to the Plan.

JJ. Retention of Jurisdiction. After the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction over the matters arising in, under, and related to, the Chapter 11 Cases, as set forth in Article X of the Plan.

KK. Additional Findings Regarding the Settlements. The Plan constitutes a motion for approval of the Settlements under Bankruptcy Rule 9019. The evidence adduced at the Confirmation Hearing and the record in these Chapter 11 Cases establishes that the complexity and global nature of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases necessitated a consensual exit strategy. The Debtors, their directors and officers, and their Special Restructuring Committee, comprised of

four independent directors, worked diligently and in good faith with their key stakeholders to formulate, negotiate, and support a process that was fair and equitable to all parties in interest. Due, in part, to the potential for complex and extensive litigation on multiple fronts, including with respect to (i) the treatment and allowance of the Thirty Two Claim and the Blue Torch Claim, and the validity, extent, and priority of liens securing each of them; (ii) the allocation of distributable value among the creditor classes; (iii) the Total Enterprise Value and the Plan Equity Value; and (iv) potential termination of the Debtors’ exclusive period to file a plan under section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (v) the scope of proposed releases and exculpation under the Plan, the Debtors and certain key constituencies participated in a mediation under the supervision of the Honorable David R. Jones, which ultimately led to the Settlements. The litigation of any one of the foregoing issues would have been costly and time consuming, while the outcome would be uncertain, thereby reducing the Debtors’ liquidity and value otherwise available for creditor recoveries. All parties to each of the Settlements have provided significant consideration thereunder, each as more fully set forth in the Settlements and the Plan, which include, without limitation: (a) agreements by Thirty Two regarding the treatment of the Thirty Two Claim; (b) waiver by Mr. Al A. Gonsoulin of any entitlement to Old Equity Settlement Warrants; (c) agreement by Mr. Al A. Gonsoulin regarding retiring as the Debtors’ Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board as of the Effective Date; (d) agreement by all parties regarding the raising of debt and equity financing in the form of the Minimum Cash Commitment Exchange and the New Secured Financing; (e) agreement regarding the corporate governance and board composition of the Reorganized Debtors; (f) agreements regarding employment agreement and Management Incentive Plan provisions for the Reorganized Debtors’ management team; (f) broad release and exculpation provisions; (g) concessions by and among

the Debtors, Thirty Two, Blue Torch and the Creditors’ Committee regarding use of cash collateral; (h) modifications to the scope of Houlihan Lokey’s retention and reduction of fees payable to Houlihan Lokey in connection with services rendered to the Debtors; and (i) settlement by the Equity Committee resulting in the issuance of Old Equity Settlement Warrants and agreement by Mr. Gonsoulin to waive any entitlement thereto, all of which has benefited the Debtors and led to the Confirmation. Each component of the Settlements is an integral, integrated, and inextricably linked part of the Plan that is not severable from the entirety of the global settlement underlying the Plan. The Plan incorporates the terms of the Settlements, including the releases provided pursuant to Article IX.B of the Plan, which (a) represent a sound exercise of the Debtors’ business judgment; (b) were negotiated in good faith and at arms’ length; (c) constitute an essential part of the Plan; (d) were granted in exchange for good and valuable consideration; (e) constitute a good faith settlement and compromise of the Claims released thereby; (f) are in the best interest of the Debtors, their Estates and all Holders of Claims and Equity Interests; (g) are fair, equitable, and reasonable under the circumstances of these Chapter 11 Cases; and (h) were given after due notice and opportunity for hearing. The Settlements, and the treatment of certain Claims and Equity Interests thereunder, are the culmination of extensive negotiations among the Debtors’ key stakeholders. The Debtors have met their burden of proving that the Settlements, and the treatment of Claims and Equity Interests as provided therein, are fair, equitable, reasonable, and in the best interests of the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates and stakeholders in satisfaction of Bankruptcy Rule 9019.

LL. Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement. The Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement was executed and delivered on July 11, 2019, and provides for the Commitment Parties to commit to purchase up to $75 million of New Common Stock at a 25% discount to the

Plan Equity Value. In exchange for this commitment, the Initial Commitment Parties shall also receive a Minimum Cash Commitment Premium equal to 20% of their commitment, payable in New Common Stock. This opportunity was available to all holders of General Unsecured Claims, all of whom have received adequate notice that they may elect to join the Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement as Initial Commitment Parties before June 17, 2019 or, as subsequent Commitment Parties before July 19, 2019 and purchase their ratable portions of New Common Stock at a 25% discount to the Plan Equity Value, with the commitments of the Initial Commitment Parties ratably reduced.

AM. Reasonableness of Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement. The Minimum Cash Commitment Agreement was negotiated in good faith and at arms’ length among the parties thereto, and the terms and provisions of the Equity Commitment Agreement are reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances.

AN. Additional Findings Regarding the Injunction. The injunction provisions set forth in Article IX.G of the Plan are essential to the Plan and are necessary to preserve and enforce the releases and exculpations provided for in the Plan and herein and are appropriately tailored to achieve those purposes.

AO. Objections. All parties have had a full and fair opportunity to litigate all issues raised, or which might have been raised, in connection with the Confirmation of the Plan and any and all objections to Confirmation have been fully and fairly litigated.

AP. Best Interests. The Bankruptcy Court finds that Confirmation of the Plan is in the best interests of the Debtors, their Estates, Holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and all other parties in interest.

To the fullest extent provided under section 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise expressly provided by the Plan or the Confirmation Order, effective as of the Effective Date, all consideration distributed under the Plan shall be in exchange for, and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge, and release of, all Claims, Equity Interests and Causes of Action of any kind or nature whatsoever against the Debtors or any of their respective assets or properties, including any interest accrued on such Claims or Equity Interests from and after the Petition Date, and regardless of whether any property shall have been abandoned by order of the Bankruptcy Court, distributed or retained under the Plan on account of such Claims, Equity Interests or Causes of Action.

Except as otherwise expressly provided by the Plan or the Confirmation Order, upon the Effective Date, the Debtors and their Estates shall be

deemed discharged and released under and to the fullest extent provided under sections 524 and 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code from any and all Claims of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, demands and liabilities that arose before the Confirmation Date, and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. Such discharge shall void any judgment obtained against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors at any time, to the extent that such judgment relates to a discharged Claim.

39. Releases. The release provisions contained in the Plan, including, but not limited to, those provided inArticle IX of the Plan, are hereby authorized, approved and binding on all Persons and Entities described therein. The release provisions are integral components of the Plan and the compromises and settlements contained therein. The Debtors’ management and directors, with the assistance of the Debtors’ Special Restructuring Committee as formed by the Debtors’ board of directors prior to the Petition Date, the attorneys, advisors and other professionals of the Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee have played an integral role in, and have provided a tangible benefit to, the Debtors’ restructuring efforts. These parties have worked diligently in connection with the Debtors’ restructuring for the benefit of all stakeholders. The Debtors’ management and directors, with the assistance of the Debtors’ Special Restructuring Committee, the Debtors’ attorneys, advisors and other professionals and other key stakeholders including the Creditors’ Committee, (a) assisted in the negotiation and formulation of the Disclosure Statement and Plan and the negotiation and consummation of the New Secured Financing and the Minimum Cash Commitment Exchange; and (b) responded to myriad issues that arose during the restructuring process and the Chapter 11 Cases. The Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee, the Equity Committee, Thirty Two, Mr. Al A. Gonsoulin and other parties provided good and valuable consideration to the Debtors through the Settlements and otherwise. Each of the parties receiving a release under the Plan has participated in the Chapter 11 Cases and the Debtors’ restructurings in good faith, and has acted in compliance with all

provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including the negotiation, preparation, and pursuit of confirmation of the Plan, and the negotiation and formulation of the New Secured Financing and the Minimum Cash Commitment Exchange. Accordingly, the release provisions in Article IX.B.1 of the Plan is appropriate, as they represent a valid exercise of the Debtors’ business judgment.

40. Third Party Releases. The third party releases contained in Article IX.B.2, as modified by Paragraph 67 of this Order, are appropriate, as the releases contained therein are consensual, and are hereby approved. The third party releases are (a) given in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties; (b) a good-faith settlement and compromise of the various claims, Causes of Action and contested issues raised by the Chapter 11 Cases; (c) materially beneficial to, and in the best interests of, the Debtors, their Estates, and their stakeholders, and are important to the overall objectives of the Plan to finally resolve disputed issues among certain parties in interest in these Chapter 11 Cases; (d) fair, equitable, and reasonable; (e) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (f) consistent with sections 105, 524, 1123, 1129, and 1141 and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Third Party Releases are an integral part of the Plan, as they facilitated participation in both the Plan and the chapter 11 process generally, and were a core negotiation point in developing the Plan that maximized value for all of the Debtors’ stakeholders. As such, the Third Party Releases appropriately offer protections to parties who constructively participated in the Debtors’ restructuring process by supporting the Plan through providing financing and other accommodations. The releases are consensual because they were conspicuously disclosed in boldface type in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, and on the Ballots, which provided parties in interest with sufficient notice of the releases, and holders of

Claims or Equity Interests entitled to vote on the Plan were given the option toopt-out of the Releases.

41. Exculpation. The exculpation provisions set forth in Article IX.E of the Plan, as modified by Paragraph 67 of this Order, were proposed in good faith, given for good and valuable consideration, and are essential to the Plan. The record in these Chapter 11 Cases fully supports the exculpation provisions, and the exculpation provisions set forth in Article IX.E of the Plan are appropriately tailored to protect the Exculpated Parties from inappropriate litigation and to exclude actions determined by Final Order to have constituted actual fraud or gross negligence, or willful misconduct. The exculpation provisions set forth in Article IX.E of the Plan, as modified by Paragraph 67 herein, are hereby approved to the broadest extent provided under the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and binding precedent in the Fifth Circuit;provided,however, that to the extent the exculpation provisions of the Plan, as modified by Paragraph 67 herein, are not authorized under the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and binding precedent in the Fifth Circuit, this Order does not approve the exculpation provisions (other than the jurisdictional provisions contained in this paragraph), solely to the extent that such provisions exceed the foregoing limitations. The Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction over any suit brought on any claim or Cause of Action against an Exculpated Party in connection with any act taken or omitted to be taken in connection with, or related to, formulating, negotiating, preparing, disseminating, implementing, administering, confirming or effecting the Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan, the Disclosure Statement, Settlement Stipulation, the Equity Committee Settlement Stipulation, the Restructuring Documents or any contract, instrument, release or other agreement or document created or entered into in connection with the Plan or this Order, or any other postpetition act

taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the restructuring of the Debtors, the approval of the Settlement Stipulation, the Equity Committee Settlement Stipulation, the Disclosure Statement or Confirmation or Consummation of this Plan, and any Entity (including, without limitation, any Governmental Unit) bringing such suit shall do so in the Bankruptcy Court or such other court as the Bankruptcy Court may direct. The protections provided to the Exculpated Parties in this Order shall be in addition to, and shall not limit, all other releases, indemnities, injunctions, exculpations and any other applicable law or rules protecting the Exculpated Parties from liabilities;provided,however, that other than the jurisdiction provisions contained in this Paragraph which shall be binding on Governmental Units, the exculpation provisions approved in the Plan shall not affect the police or regulatory activities of Governmental Units.

42. Injunctions. The injunctions contained in the Plan, including, but not limited to, those provided inArticle IX.G of the Plan, are hereby authorized, approved and binding on all Persons and Entities described therein. Absent reversal, vacatur or stay of this Order, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, no Person or Entity may take any action against any Person or Entity released or discharged (or the property or estate of any such Person or Entity so released and discharged) under the Plan, or otherwise take any action inconsistent with the Plan and the findings of fact and conclusions of law contained in this Order, and this Court shall enter maintain exclusive jurisdiction to enter and implement orders to enforce the injunction provisions contained in the Plan as may be necessary or appropriate to restrain interference by any Entity in connection with actions inconsistent with the Plan and the findings of fact and conclusions of law contained in this Order.

43. Payment of Statutory Fees; Post-Effective Date Fees and Expenses. All fees due and payable pursuant to section 1930 of Title 28 of the U.S. Code prior to the Effective Date

shall be paid by the Debtors. On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall pay any and all such fees when due and payable, and shall file with the Bankruptcy Court quarterly reports in a form reasonably acceptable to the United States Trustee. Except as provided in the Plan, each Debtor shall remain obligated to pay quarterly fees to the United States Trustee until the earliest of that particular Debtor’s case being closed, dismissed, or converted to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Reorganized Debtors shall pay the fees and charges that they incur on or after the Effective Date for Retained Professionals’ fees, disbursements, expenses, or related support services (including reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by Retained Professionals relating to the preparation of interim and final fee applications and obtaining Bankruptcy Court approval thereof) in the ordinary course of business and without application or notice to, or order of, the Bankruptcy Court, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses, and disbursements of the Distribution Agents and the fees, costs and expenses incurred by Retained Professionals in connection with the implementation, enforcement and Consummation of the Plan and the Restructuring Documents.

44. Conditions Precedent to Effective Date. The Plan shall not become consummated, and the Effective Date shall not occur, unless and until the conditions set forth inArticle VIII.Aof the Plan have been satisfied or waived pursuant toArticle VIII.Bof the Plan.

45. Notice of Entry of Confirmation Order and Effective Date.

Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules or this Confirmation Order to any Person or Entity to whom the Debtors mailed a notice of the Confirmation Hearing, but received such notice returned marked “undeliverable as addressed,” “moved-left no forwarding address” or “forwarding order expired,” or similar reason, unless the Debtors have been informed in writing by such Person or Entity of that Person’s or Entity’s new mailing address. The notice described herein is adequate and appropriate under the particular circumstances and no other or further notice is necessary or required. The Notice of Effective Date shall constitute sufficient notice of the entry of this Confirmation Order to such filing and recording officers and shall be a recordable instrument notwithstanding any contrary provision of applicablenon-bankruptcy law.

46. No Liability for Solicitation. Based on the factual findings set forth in this Confirmation Order, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and each of their respective Related Persons are not, and on account of or with respect to the issuance, sale, or purchase of any security under the Plan, and/or solicitation of votes on the Plan, shall not be, liable at any time for any violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or the distribution, offer, issuance, sale, or purchase of any securities. The Debtors and each of their respective Related Persons have solicited votes on the Plan in good faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules and all other applicable rules, laws, and regulations and are, therefore, entitled to, and are hereby granted, the protections afforded by section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

48. Failure to Consummate Plan. If the Consummation of the Plan does not occur with respect to one or more of the Debtors, then the Plan shall, with respect to such applicable Debtor or Debtors, be null and void in all respects and nothing contained in the Plan or the Disclosure Statement shall: (1) constitute a waiver or release of any claims by or Claims against or Equity Interests in the Debtors; (2) prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtors, any Holders or any other Entity; (3) constitute an Allowance of any Claim or Equity Interest; or (4) constitute an admission, acknowledgment, offer or undertaking by the Debtors, any Holders or any other Entity in any respect.
