If Spinco is obligated to pay MPC Taxes with respect to the tax year 2010 and New GGP is not then obligated to indemnify Spinco as a consequence of the Indemnity Cap, then solely with respect to such payments, New GGP shall pay such amount of MPC Taxes and the principal amount of the Spinco Note shall be increased by the amount of such payment and if at such time no Spinco Note is outstanding, on the date of any such payment, Spinco shall issue in favor of New GGP a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of such payment on the same terms as the Spinco Note.

These director designation rights will be on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Cornerstone Investment Agreement and the Pershing Square Stock Purchase Agreement.
(e) Spinco Stockholder Vote. Spinco shall, to the extent required by any U.S. national securities exchange upon which shares of Spinco Common Stock are listed, for so long as each Investor has subscription rights as contemplated by the applicable Investment Agreement, put up for a stockholder vote at the annual meeting of its stockholders, and include in its proxy statement distributed to such stockholders in connection with such annual meeting, approval of such Investor’s subscription rights for the maximum period permitted by the rules of such U.S. national securities exchange.
6.4 Provisions Concerning Possible Rights Agreements.
(a) New GGP. In the event that New GGP adopts a rights plan analogous to the Rights Agreement on or prior to the Effective Date, (i) New GGP’s Rights Agreement shall be inapplicable to the Investment Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) neither the Investors nor any Brookfield Consortium Member nor any member of Pershing Square’s or Fairholme’s Purchaser Group, shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights
Agreement) whether in connection with the acquisition of Shares, New GGP Warrants, shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants or otherwise, (iii) neither a Shares Acquisition Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) nor a Distribution Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) shall be deemed to occur and (iv) the Rights (as defined in the Rights Agreement) will not separate from the New GGP Common Stock, in each case under (ii), (iii) and (iv), as a result of the execution, delivery or performance of the Investment Agreements, the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby including the acquisition of shares of New GGP Common Stock by the Investors and any Brookfield Consortium Member or any member of Pershing Square’s or Fairholme’s Purchaser Group after the date of the Investment Agreements as otherwise permitted by the Investment Agreements, the New GGP Warrants or as otherwise contemplated by the applicable non-control agreement.
(b) Spinco. In the event Spinco adopts a rights plan analogous to the Rights Agreement on or prior to the Effective Date, (i) Spinco’s Rights Agreement shall be inapplicable to the Investment Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) neither the Investors nor any Brookfield Consortium Member (nor any member of Pershing Square’s or Fairholme’s Purchaser Group), shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) whether in connection with the acquisition of shares of Spinco Common Stock or Spinco Warrants or the shares issuable upon exercise of the Spinco Warrants, (iii) neither a Shares Acquisition Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) nor a Distribution Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) shall be deemed to occur and (iv) the Rights (as defined in the Rights Agreement) will not separate from the Spinco Common Stock, in each case under (ii), (iii) and (iv), as a result of the execution, delivery or performance of the Investment Agreements or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby including the acquisition of shares of Spinco Common Stock by the Investors, any Brookfield Consortium Member or any member of Pershing Square’s or Fairholme’s Purchaser Group after the date of the Investment Agreements as otherwise permitted by the Investment Agreements or the Spinco Warrants (or, in the case of Pershing Square, its non-control agreement).
6.5 Non-Control Agreements
Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, on the Effective Date, New GGP will enter into “non-control agreements” with the Investors. Additionally, Spinco will enter into a “non-control agreement” with Pershing Square. The terms of the non-control agreements are set forth in the Investment Agreements.
In addition to the covenants provided in the non-control agreements, at the time of an underwritten offering of equity or convertible securities by New GGP on or prior to the 30th day after the Effective Date, to the extent reasonably requested in connection with such offering by UBS or any other managing underwriter selected by New GGP, Pershing Square and Fairholme and the other members of the applicable Purchaser Group will covenant and agree that it does not currently intend to, and will not Transfer any Shares for a period of time not to exceed 120 days from the date of completion of the offering without the consent of the representatives of such underwriter; provided, however, that Fairholme or a member of its Purchaser Group may Transfer its Shares in such amounts, and at such times, as Fairholme or such Purchaser Group’s members’ manager, determines after the Effective Date to be in the best interest of Fairholme or its Purchaser Group members in light of its then current circumstances and the laws and regulations applicable to it as a management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, with a policy of qualifying as a “regulated
investment company” as defined in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
In addition to the covenants set forth in the non-control agreements, the Brookfield Investor shall not sell, transfer or dispose of (x) any shares of New GGP Common Stock, New GGP Warrants, or shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants during the period from and after the Effective Date (as defined in the Cornerstone Investment Agreement) to the six (6) month anniversary of the Effective Date, (y) in excess of (A) 8.25% of the shares of New GGP Common Stock purchased by the Brookfield Investor pursuant to the Cornerstone Investment Agreement and (B) 8.25% of the New GGP Warrants held by the Brookfield Investor or shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants held by the Brookfield Investor, in the aggregate, during the period from and after the six (6) month anniversary of the Effective Date to the one (1) year anniversary of the Effective Date and (z) in excess of (A) 16.5% of the shares of New GGP Common Stock purchased by the Brookfield Investor pursuant to the Cornerstone Investment Agreement and (B) 16.5% of the New GGP Warrants held by the Brookfield Investor or the shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants held by the Brookfield Investor, in the aggregate (and taken together with any transfers effected under clause (y)), during the period from and after the six (6) month anniversary of the Effective Date to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Effective Date. For clarity, the Brookfield Investor shall not be restricted from transferring any shares of New GGP Common Stock, New GGP Warrants, or shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants from and after the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Brookfield Investor shall be entitled to sell, transfer and otherwise dispose of New GGP Common Stock, New GGP Warrants, and shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants to the extent permitted by Section 6.4 of the Cornerstone Investment Agreement; provided, that any sale, transfer or disposition of New GGP Common Stock, New GGP Warrants, and shares issuable upon exercise of the New GGP Warrants to any affiliate or member of the Brookfield Investor, any Brookfield Consortium Member or any member, partner, shareholder or affiliate of any Brookfield Consortium Member shall be in accordance with and subject to the Designation Conditions (as defined in the Cornerstone Investment Agreement) and shall be conditioned upon such Person having agreed in writing with and for the benefit of New GGP to be bound by the terms of this paragraph.
6.6 New Management Agreements
(a) New GGP. In order to attract, retain and motivate highly competent persons as officers and other key employees, in connection with Consummation of the Plan, it is expected that New GGP will adopt a long-term equity incentive compensation plan or plans providing for awards to such individuals.
(b) Spinco. In order to attract, retain and motivate highly competent persons as offices and other key employees, in connection with confirmation of the Plan, it is expected that Spinco will adopt a long-term equity incentive compensation plan or plans providing for awards to such individuals.
ARTICLE 7
PROVISIONS GOVERNING VOTING AND DISTRIBUTIONS
7.1 Distribution Record Date
At 11:59 p.m. New York time, on the Distribution Record Date the various transfer registers for each of the Classes of Claims or Interests as maintained by the Plan Debtors, or the Claims Agent, as agent for the clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the record holders of any of the Claims or Interests. The Plan Debtors and Disbursing Agents shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of the Claims or Interests occurring after the Distribution Record Date. The Plan Debtors shall be entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes hereunder only with those record holders stated on the transfer ledgers as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date, to the extent applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Distribution Record Date shall not apply to the Note Claims or the 2006 Bank Loan Claims.
7.2 Date of Distributions
Distributions pursuant to the Plan shall be made on the dates otherwise set forth in the Plan or as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event that any payment or any act under the Plan is required to be made or performed on a date that is not a Business Day, then the making of such payment or the performance of such act may be completed on the next succeeding Business Day, but shall be deemed to have been completed as of the required date. Distributions contemplated by the Plan to be made after the Effective Date shall be made monthly during the first six (6) months following the Effective Date and shall continue to be made every three (3) months thereafter, each on a date selected by the Plan Debtors. Distributions on account of Disputed Claims that are Allowed in between Distribution Dates shall be made on the next successive Distribution Date. Distributions made after the Effective Date to holders of Disputed Claims that are not Allowed Claims as of the Effective Date but which later become Allowed Claims shall be deemed to have been made on the Effective Date.
7.3 Disbursing Agent
All distributions under the Plan shall be made by a Plan Debtor or Other Debtor as Disbursing Agent or such other entity designated as a Disbursing Agent by the Plan Debtors on or after the Effective Date. The applicable Indenture Trustee shall be the Disbursing Agent for the holders of Note Claims and for any cure amounts (if any) payable to such holders. The Agent under the 2006 Bank Loan shall act as the Disbursing Agent for the holders of 2006 Bank Loan Claims. A Plan Debtor, 2006 Bank Loan Agent, Indenture Trustee, or Other Debtor acting as Disbursing Agent shall not be required to give any bond, surety, or any other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, in which case all costs and expenses incurred to obtain the bond or surety shall be borne by the Plan Debtors. If a Disbursing Agent is not one of the Plan Debtors, an Other Debtor, the 2006 Bank Loan Agent, or an Indenture Trustee, such Person shall obtain a bond or surety for the performance of its duties (proof of having obtained such bond shall be provided to the United States Trustee prior to the Effective Date), and all costs and expenses incurred to obtain the bond or surety shall be borne by the Plan Debtors. Furthermore, the Disbursing Agent shall notify
the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. Trustee in writing before terminating any bond or surety that is obtained in connection with this Section 7.3. The Plan Debtors shall inform the U.S. Trustee in writing of any changes to the identity of the Disbursing Agent. The Plan Debtors’ stock transfer agent shall act as the Disbursing Agent for any distributions made to holders of Interests.
7.4 Distributions to Classes
On the Effective Date, and/or to the extent applicable, on each Distribution Date, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute any Cash allocable to holders of Allowed Claims in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan. Distributions to holders of Interests shall be made through the Plan Debtors’ stock transfer agent, as applicable.
7.5 Rights and Powers of Disbursing Agent
(a) Powers of the Disbursing Agent. The Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to (i) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under the Plan, (ii) make all distributions contemplated hereby, (iii) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities, and (iv) exercise such other powers as may be vested in the Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan or as deemed by the Disbursing Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.
(b) Expenses Incurred on or After the Effective Date. Except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing Agent (including taxes and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) on or after the Effective Date shall be paid in Cash by the Plan Debtors in the ordinary course of business or in the manner and upon such other terms as may be otherwise agreed by the Plan Debtors and the Disbursing Agent.
7.6 Delivery of Distributions
Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to any holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Administrative Expense Claim shall be made at the address of such holder as set forth on the Schedules filed with the Bankruptcy Court or on the books and records of the Plan Debtors or their agents, as applicable, unless the Plan Debtors have been notified in writing of a change of address, including by the filing of a proof of Claim by such holder that contains an address for such holder different than the address of such holder as set forth on the Schedules.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions to holders of Note Claims or the 2006 Bank Loan Claims and delivery of any cure amounts (if any) to such holders will be made through the Indenture Trustees or the 2006 Bank Loan Agent, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Indenture or the 2006 Bank Loan Credit Agreement. Any distribution to an Indenture Trustee or the 2006 Bank Loan Agent, shall be deemed a distribution to the respective holder of a Note Claim under the applicable Indenture or 2006 Bank Loan Credit Agreement. In no event shall a Plan Debtor make any payments directly to the holders of Note Claims or 2006 Bank Loan Claims.
7.7 Manner of Payment Under Plan
At the option of the Disbursing Agent, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by Automated Clearing House transfer, check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements or by any other means agreed to by the payor and payee.
All distributions of Cash to the creditors of each Plan Debtor under the Plan shall be made by, or on behalf of, the applicable Plan Debtor. Cash currently held in the Main Operating Account attributable to a particular Plan Debtor shall be used to satisfy the Allowed Claims asserted against such Plan Debtor. To the extent of any shortfall, GGP LP shall provide an amount, in Cash, equal to such shortfall, either directly or indirectly, to the applicable Plan Debtor to be distributed to the holders of Allowed Claims against such Plan Debtor, which amount shall be offset against any Administrative Expense Claim held by the Plan Debtor against GGP LP, and to the extent the applicable Plan Debtor is not Spinco or a subsidiary of Spinco, GGP LP shall retain a post emergence claim against the applicable Plan Debtor for any amounts remitted by GGP LP to or on behalf of the applicable Plan Debtor exceeding such offset.
Nothing in the Plan or in the Confirmation Order shall, or shall be deemed to, limit, waive, modify or otherwise impact a creditor’s contractual or statutory right of setoff, netting or recoupment, if any.
7.8 Minimum Cash Distributions
At the Plan Debtors’ election, no payment of Cash less than $100 shall be made to any holder of an Allowed Claim unless a request therefor is made in writing.
7.9 Distribution of Unclaimed Property.
In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, the Disbursing Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the current address of such holder, but no distribution to such holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent has determined the then-current address of such holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such holder without interest. Any distribution under the Plan that is unclaimed after one year following the date such property is distributed shall be deemed unclaimed property pursuant to section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall be returned or transferred to the Plan Debtors free and clear of any Claims or Interests, including, without express or implied limitation, any Claims or Interests of any governmental unit under escheat principles. Nothing contained herein shall affect the discharge of the Claim with respect to which such distribution was made, and the holder of such Claim shall be forever barred from enforcing such Claim against the Plan Debtors or their assets, estates, properties, or interests in property.
7.10 Setoffs and Recoupment
Subject to the setoffs described in Section 7.7, the Plan Debtors may, but shall not be required to, offset or recoup from any Claim or Interest, any Claims of any nature the Plan Debtors may have against the claimant, but neither the failure to do so nor the allowance of any
Claim or Interest hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by any Plan Debtor of any such Claim it may have against such Claimant or Interest holder.
7.11 Allocation of Plan Distributions Between Principal and Interest
To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution under the Plan consists of indebtedness and other amounts (such as accrued but unpaid interest thereon), such distribution, unless otherwise set forth explicitly in the Plan or its exhibits, shall be allocated first to the principal amount of the Claim (as determined for federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to such other amount.
7.12 Allocation of Professional Fees
The Debtors reserve their rights to allocate as overhead against and among each Plan Debtor any claims for professional fees and expenses approved as payable by the Debtors that are or were incurred in connection with the negotiation, Consummation and effectuating the transactions set forth in the Plan.
7.13 Fractional Shares
No fractional shares of New GGP Common Stock or Spinco Common Stock shall be distributed under the Plan. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Interest (as aggregated by holders thereof) would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New GGP Common Stock or Spinco Common Stock that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of New GGP Common Stock or Spinco Common Stock shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment or other distribution therefor. The total number of authorized shares of New GGP Common Stock or Spinco Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Interests shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Section 7.13.
ARTICLE 8
PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED,
CONTINGENT AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS UNDER PLAN
8.1 Objections to Claims
From and after the Effective Date, objections to, and requests for estimation of, Administrative Expense Claims and Claims against the Plan Debtors may be interposed and prosecuted only by the Plan Debtors. Objections (including objections to any asserted Applicable Rate) and requests for estimation shall be served on the holders of the Claims against whom such objections or requests for estimation are interposed and with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the Claims Objection Deadline; provided, however, the Claims Objection Deadline shall not apply to Intercompany Obligations. Until the expiration of the Claims Objection Deadline, unless a Claim is expressly Allowed in accordance with the provisions of this Plan, no Claim shall be deemed Allowed; provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent the Plan Debtors from settling or resolving Claims and Administrative Expense Claims in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Plan.
8.2 Payments and Distributions with Respect to Disputed Claims
(a) General. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if any portion of an Administrative Expense Claim or Claim is Disputed, the Plan Debtors shall make a distribution or payment on the Effective Date on account of the undisputed portion of the Administrative Expense Claim or Claim. Distributions made pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall be made in accordance with the terms set forth in Article 7 of the Plan.
(b) Existing Litigation Claims. All Existing Litigation Claims shall be deemed Disputed Claims unless and until they are liquidated. Any Existing Litigation Claim or other Noticed Litigation Claim that has not been liquidated prior to the date of this Plan and as to which a proof of Claim was timely filed in the Chapter 11 Cases shall be determined and liquidated in the administrative or judicial tribunal in which it is pending on the Confirmation Date or in any administrative or judicial tribunal of appropriate jurisdiction. Any Existing Litigation Claim determined and liquidated (i) pursuant to a judgment obtained in accordance with this Section 8.2(b) and applicable nonbankruptcy law that is a Final Order or (ii) in the alternative dispute resolution or similar proceeding approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court shall be deemed, to the extent applicable an Allowed General Unsecured Claim in such liquidated amount; provided, however, subject to Section 8.6 of the Plan, for Insured Claims, such liquidated amount shall not exceed the liquidated amount of the Claim less the amount paid by the insurer. Nothing contained in this Section 8.2(b) shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Claim, right, or cause of action that the Plan Debtors may have against any Person in connection with, or arising out of, any Existing Litigation Claim, including any rights under section 157(b) of title 28 of the United States Code.
(c) Mechanics’ Lien Claims. Mechanics’ Lien Claims shall be deemed Disputed Claims if (i) the party primarily obligated on the claim is a third party (including Property Document Counterparties and sublessees), (ii) the Mechanics’ Lien or Mechanics’ Lien Claim is in litigation pending prior to the Commencement Date or (iii) the Mechanics’ Lien or Mechanics’ Lien Claim is identified on the Disputed Mechanics’ Liens and Claims Schedule. Nothing contained in this Section 8.2(c) shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Claim, right, or cause of action that the Plan Debtors may have against any Person in connection with, or arising out of, any Mechanics’ Lien Claim, including any rights under section 157(b) of title 28 of the United States Code.
(d) Disputed Property Document Counterparty Claims. Disputed Property Document Counterparty Claims shall be addressed in the manner otherwise set forth in the Plan for resolving (i) Disputed General Unsecured Claims, to the extent the Disputed Property Document Counterparty Claim arises from a rejection of such Property Document Counterparty’s unexpired Property Document or (ii) Disputed cure obligations, to the extent such Property Document Counterparty’s Claim arises from a Plan Debtor’s assumption, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, of such Property Document Counterparty’s Property Document.
(e) Disputed Priority Tax Claims and Disputed Secured Tax Claims. Disputed Priority Tax Claims and Disputed Secured Tax Claims that become Allowed Priority Tax Claims or Allowed Secured Tax Claims following the Effective Date shall receive the
present value of the Allowed Priority Tax Claim or Secured Tax Claim, as applicable, as of the Effective Date plus, from and after the Effective Date, postpetition interest at the rate of interest in the amount prescribed by section 511 of the Bankruptcy Code.
8.3 Distributions After Allowance
To the extent that a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, distributions (if any) shall be made to the holder of such Claim in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article 7 of the Plan.
8.4 Estimation of Claims
The Plan Debtors may, at any time, request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Contingent Claim, Unliquidated Claim or Disputed Claim asserted against the Plan Debtors pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether any of the Plan Debtors 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. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation and resolution procedures are intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims against the Plan Debtors may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court including the Omnibus Claims Settlement Procedures Order.
8.5 Interest
To the extent that a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date, the holder of such Claim shall be entitled to receive postpetition interest through the Distribution Date for such Claim, only to the extent that such Allowed Claim is otherwise entitled to receive postpetition interest as of the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the Plan. To the extent it shall become necessary, following the Effective Date, to pay a holder of a Claim additional postpetition interest as a result of the timely assertion of the Applicable Rate by a holder of a Claim entitled to receive postpetition interest at the Applicable Rate, such additional postpetition interest shall be paid for the period between the Effective Date and the next Distribution Date following the Applicable Rate Notice Deadline.
8.6 Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties
(a) Claims Paid by Third Parties. The Plan Debtors, as applicable, shall reduce a Claim, and, if applicable, such Claim shall be disallowed without a Claims objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval by the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent or in the amount that the holder of the Claim receives payment in full or in part on account of such Claim from a party that is not the Plan Debtor or an Affiliate of a Plan Debtor. Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, to the extent a holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Plan Debtor or an Affiliate of a Plan Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within four (4) weeks of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the applicable Plan Debtor, to the extent the holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the
Plan exceeds the Allowed amount of such Claim; provided, that any Government Authority shall repay or return such distribution in accordance with the deadlines set forth under applicable state or federal law. The failure of such holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the holder owing the applicable Plan Debtor annualized interest at 3.00% on such amount owed for each Business Day after the applicable grace period specified herein until the amount is repaid.
(b) Claims Payable by Third Parties. No distributions under the Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Plan Debtors’ insurance policies until the holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy; provided, however, nothing herein is intended to limit or prevent the payment by a Plan Debtor of the portion of an Allowed Claim in the amount of the Plan Debtor’s insurance deductible or self insured retention in respect of such Claim. To the extent that one or more of the Plan Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy in full a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurer’s agreement, such Claim may be expunged without a Claims objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of, the Bankruptcy Court.
(c) Applicability of Insurance Policies. Except as provided in the Plan, distributions to holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of any cause of action that the Plan Debtors or any entity may hold against another entity, including insurers under any policies of insurance, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses.
8.7 Reserve
Pursuant to section 12.1(aaa) of the Investment Agreements, the Bankruptcy Court will establish a “Reserve” for purposes of calculating the Permitted Claims Amount and, thus, the Spinco Note Amount to the extent that a Spinco Note is to be issued on the Effective Date. For this purpose, “Reserve” is an estimated aggregate amount of certain categories of Disputed Claims. The Plan Debtors shall use the following methodology to calculate the “Reserve”:
As of the Effective Date of the Plan, for each applicable Disputed Claim (except as otherwise provided below), the “Reserve” shall be an aggregate estimate of Claims computed by using the lesser of:
(a) to the extent applicable, the liquidated amount set forth in the proof of claim relating to such Claim;
(b) if the Bankruptcy Court has estimated the Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, then the amount as estimated by the Bankruptcy Court;
(c) if the Debtors and the holder of the Claim have agreed to a maximum estimated amount of the Claim, then the amount as agreed by the Debtors and the holder of the Claim;
(d) with respect to pre- and post-petition claims in the general liability, workers’ compensation, and owner controlled construction insurance programs, an aggregate amount covering projected retained liabilities (pursuant to self-insured retentions) based on the number and volatility of claims, third-party adjuster or insurance company case reserves, loss history, and experience in the development of claims over time;
(e) with respect to distributions under the KEIP, an amount calculated using (i) $14.68 per share to holders of GGP Common Stock and GGP LP Common Units (assuming the conversion or redemption of such units), (ii) the assumption that all applicable Claims will be satisfied in full, (iii) liquidation value of applicable preferred interests plus, to the extent applicable, a value attributed to certain Spinco Common Stock, and (iv) estimates of certain Disputed Claims as determined consistent with the terms of the KEIP;(3)
(f) with respect to professional fees and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisers and consultants retained in connection with the administration and conduct of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases, the aggregate of (i) any outstanding holdback amounts as of five (5) days prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, (ii) any submitted but unpaid monthly statements as of five (5) days prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, and (iii) the Debtors’ good faith estimate of additional fees and expenses to be incurred by such professionals on or before the Effective Date;
(g) without duplication of amounts for fees and disbursements in clause (g) above, other expenses, fees and commissions related to the reorganization and recapitalization of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan, including relating to the Investment Agreements, the issuance of the New Debt, Liquidity Equity Issuances and any other equity issuances contemplated by the Plan; and
(h) the amount reasonably estimated by the Debtors for these purposes for any Disputed Claims; provided, however, that, without the Investors’ prior written consent, the Debtors may not estimate an amount less than the liquidated amount asserted in a proof of Claim unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court following notice and, to the extent applicable, a hearing.
(3) Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, holders of GGP Common Stock will receive 1 share of New GGP Common Stock and 0.0983 shares of Spinco Common Stock in exchange for each share of existing GGP Common Stock. Based on (i) the exchange ratios for New GGP Common Stock and Spinco Common Stock, (ii) the purchase price under the Investment Agreements of $10.00 per share of New GGP Common Stock and $47.62 per share of Spinco Common Stock, and (iii) the distribution of Spinco Common Stock to the holders of GGP LP Preferred Equity Units, the aggregate consideration distributed to holders of GGP LP Preferred Equity Units, GGP LP Common Units, and GGP Common Stock divided by the number of shares of GGP Common Stock outstanding is implicitly valued at $14.76, which is the value used for the KEIP estimate.
ARTICLE 9
EXECUTORY CONTRACTS, UNEXPIRED PROPERTY
DOCUMENTS AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
9.1 Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Property Documents
(a) Assumption and Rejection Generally. On the Effective Date, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, all of the Plan Debtors’ executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents will be assumed by the Plan Debtors unless an executory contract or unexpired Property Document: (i) is identified as part of the Executory Contract and Property Document Rejection Schedule as an agreement being rejected pursuant to the Plan, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1(b) of the Plan; (ii) is identified as part of the Executory Contract and Property Document Expired Schedule as an agreement that is nonbinding, has expired or terminated by operation of law or contract; (iii) is the subject of a motion to reject filed on or before the Confirmation Date; or (iv) is deemed rejected pursuant to a prior order of the Bankruptcy Court. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or the Confirmation Order to the contrary, unless otherwise agreed to by each of the parties to an assumed executory contract or unexpired Property Document and except with respect to the cure and subsequent discharge of defaults, as of the Effective Date: (1) all executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents that are assumed shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of each of the parties to the assumed Executory Contracts and unexpired Property Documents, and (2) nothing in this Plan shall modify or limit any right, Claim, defense, or obligation, or release or discharge any right, Claim, defense, liability or obligation, in favor of such parties that are contained in the assumed executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents and under applicable law; provided, however, that nothing herein shall suspend or negate the provisions of Section 9.1(c) of the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise specified in this Section 9.1(a), all executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents between the Plan Debtors and the counterparties to such executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents will be assumed by the Plan Debtors regardless of whether such executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents are listed on the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption Schedule. Unless otherwise specified on an Executory Contract and Property Document Schedule, each executory contract or unexpired Property Document listed on such schedule shall include all exhibits, schedules, riders, modifications, amendments, supplements, attachments, restatements or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that, in any manner, affects such executory contract or unexpired Property Document, without regard to whether such agreement, instrument or other document is listed on such schedule.
(b) Amendment of Property Document Schedules. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Plan Debtors may, at any time up to and including the Confirmation Date, amend any Executory Contract and Property Document Schedule; provided that in the event of such amendment, (i) the Plan Debtors shall file any such amendment with the Bankruptcy Court and serve such notice on (w) any affected party, (x) the Creditors’ Committee, (y) the Equity Committee, and (z) the Investors (ii) any executory contract or Property Document deleted from the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption Schedule and/or placed on the Executory Contract and Property Document Rejection Schedule shall be deemed rejected as of the Effective Date, and (iii) subject to Section 9.1(c) of the Plan, any executory contract or Property Document added to the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption Schedule and deleted from the Executory Contract and Property Document Rejection Schedule shall be deemed assumed as of the Effective Date.
(c) Objection Deadline. Any counterparty to any agreement identified on an Executory Contract and Property Document Schedule must file any and all objections relating to such schedule, including the proposed cure amount(s) listed in the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption Schedule (if applicable), on or before the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption/Rejection Objection Deadline or such counterparty shall be forever barred from asserting and otherwise prosecuting its objection concerning such schedule against any Plan Debtor.
(d) Assignment of Certain Agreements. Subject to Section 9.1(b) of the Plan, each Plan Debtor shall be entitled, at its option and subject to applicable law, including section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, to assign all contracts and agreements, whether executory or non-executory and whether expired or unexpired, to Spinco, free and clear of all Liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests in accordance with section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan shall constitute a motion to assume any executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents the Plan Debtors propose to assign as noted herein, which executory contracts and unexpired Property Documents shall be listed on the Executory Contract and Property Document Assumption Schedule filed with the Plan Supplement. Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute approval of such assumptions and assignments pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that each such assumption is in the best interest of the Plan Debtors and their Estates. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this section 9.1(d) shall waive the obligation, if any, of a Plan Debtor to pay any cure obligations owed by such Plan Debtor pursuant to the Plan, the Bankruptcy Code or any order of the Bankruptcy Court.
9.2 Cure Obligations
Any monetary amounts required as cure payments on each executory contract or unexpired Property Document to be assumed pursuant to the Plan shall be satisfied, pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, (a) by payment of the cure amount in Cash on the Effective Date (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter), (b) upon such other terms and dates as the parties to such executory contracts or unexpired Property Documents may agree or as may be provided in a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court or (c) such other later date as the Bankruptcy Court may order. Any non-monetary cure required by the Bankruptcy Court to be undertaken by a Plan Debtor shall commence (i) within thirty (30) days following the entry of a
Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court determining the nature and extent of such cure or if not disputed, within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, (ii) such other later date as the Plan Debtors and their non-Debtor counterparties may agree or (iii) such other later date as the Bankruptcy Court may order, and the Plan Debtors shall continue pursuit until completion of any non-monetary cure obligations commenced in accordance with subsections (i), (ii), (iii) above.
9.3 Rejection Damage Claims Bar Date
Proofs of Claim for damages arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired Property Document must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the attorneys for the Plan Debtors on a date that is (a) the date that is fixed by the Bankruptcy Court in the applicable order approving such rejection or if no such date is specified, thirty (30) days after notice of such rejection, if the executory contract or unexpired Property Document was deemed rejected pursuant to a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court other than the Confirmation Order or (b) if the executory contract or unexpired Property Document is deemed rejected pursuant to the Confirmation Order, thirty (30) days after the Effective Date and notice of the rejection of the applicable executory contract or unexpired Property Document. In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired Property Document by the Plan Debtors pursuant to the Plan results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or unexpired Property Document, a Claim for such damages, if not evidenced by a timely filed proof of Claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Plan Debtors, or their properties or interests in property as agents, successors or assigns.
9.4 Procedures Governing Disputes
In the event of a dispute regarding, or an objection to, (i) the amount of any cure payment or any nonmonetary cure obligations, (ii) the ability of the Plan Debtors or any assignee to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) under the agreement to be assumed, (iii) the inclusion of any agreement in any Executory Contract and Property Document Schedule, or (iv) any other matter pertaining to assumption or rejection, then such dispute shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court. The Plan Debtors and the non-Debtor counterparties shall promptly confer to attempt to resolve any such dispute consensually. If the parties are unable to resolve such objection consensually, the Bankruptcy Court shall hold a hearing on a date to be set by the Bankruptcy Court. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.4 or in Section 9.1(b) of the Plan, without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Plan Debtors shall be entitled to assume or reject any executory contract or unexpired Property Document through the Confirmation Date.

9.6 Reservation of Rights

9.7 Indemnification Obligations
Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the obligations of the Plan Debtors to indemnify, defend, reimburse or limit the liability of directors, officers, managers, trustees or employees who hold or held such positions with the Plan Debtors against any claims or causes of action as provided in the Plan Debtors’ certificates of incorporation, bylaws, other organizational documents or applicable law or any resolution of the Plan Debtors’ board of directors, managers, trustees, or equity owners, shall survive confirmation of the Plan, remain unaffected thereby and not be discharged, irrespective of whether such indemnification, defense, reimbursement or limitation is owed in connection with an event occurring before or after the Commencement Date, and any agreement between a Plan Debtor and a director, officer, manager, trustee or employee who held or holds such position with a Plan Debtor shall be deemed assumed, subject to its terms and conditions, in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code unless otherwise rejected.

Nothing contained in this Section 9.8 shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of (i) any cause of action that the Plan Debtors may hold against any entity, including the insurer, under any of the Insurance Policies, (ii) any defense by the insurer against any entity or (iii) any claim by the insurer against any non-Plan Debtor party other than the Persons identified in, and to the extent provided in, Section 11.7 or 11.8 of the Plan.

In connection with the Plan and all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution under the Plan shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state or local taxing authority, and all distributions under the Plan shall be subject to any such withholding or reporting requirements; provided however, that any party entitled to receive any distribution under the Plan shall be required to deliver to the Disbursing Agent or some other Person designated by the Plan Debtors (which entity shall subsequently deliver to the Disbursing Agent any Form W-8 or Form W-9 received) an appropriate Form W-9 or (if the payee is a foreign Person) Form W-8 to avoid the incurrence of certain federal income withholding tax obligations on its respective distribution, unless such Person is exempt under the Tax Code. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been distributed to and received by the applicable holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest for all purposes of the Plan. Notwithstanding the above, each holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest that is to receive a distribution under the Plan shall have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed on such holder by any governmental unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution. Any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution under the Plan has the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to such issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations.
13.3 Corporate Action
On the Effective Date, all matters provided for under the Plan that would otherwise require approval of the equityholders or directors (or any equivalent body) of one or more of the Plan Debtors, shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be in effect from and after
the Effective Date pursuant to the applicable law of the jurisdiction of incorporation or formation without any requirement of further action by the equityholders or directors (or any equivalent body) of the Plan Debtors. On the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as is practicable, the Plan Debtors shall, if required, file any documents required to be filed in such states so as to effectuate the provisions of this Plan.
13.4 Amendments and Modifications
Subject to any applicable restrictions or rights of the Investors under the Investment Agreements, the Plan Debtors may alter, amend or modify the Plan or any exhibits thereto under section 1127(a) of the Bankruptcy Code at any time prior to the Confirmation Date including, but not limited, to change the Plan Consideration to be provided to holders of Interests and/or to supplement, modify or revise the Additional Financing Activities or the means for implementation of the Plan. Subject to any applicable restrictions or rights of the Investors under the Investment Agreements, after the Confirmation Date and prior to “substantial consummation” of the Plan, as defined in section 1101(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan Debtors may, under 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, institute proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court to remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistencies in the Plan, the Disclosure Statement or the Confirmation Order, and such matters as may be necessary to carry out the purposes and effects of the Plan, so long as such proceedings do not materially adversely affect the treatment of holders of Claims or Interests under the Plan; provided, however, that prior notice of such proceedings shall be served in accordance with the Bankruptcy Rules or order of the Bankruptcy Court. A holder of a Claim that has accepted the Plan shall be deemed to have accepted the Plan, as altered, amended or modified, if the proposed alteration, amendment or modification does not materially and adversely change the treatment of the Claim of such holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not effect a waiver of any rights that any party may have with respect to modification of the Plan under section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code.
13.5 Revocation or Withdrawal of the Plan
Subject to any applicable restrictions or rights of the Investors under the Investment Agreements, the Plan Debtors reserve the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan, in whole or in part, prior to the Confirmation Date. If a Plan Debtor revokes or withdraws its Plan in whole prior to the Confirmation Date, then such Plan Debtor’s Plan shall be deemed null and void. In such event, nothing contained herein shall constitute or be deemed a waiver or release of any Claims or Interests by or against such Plan Debtor or any other Person or to prejudice in any manner the rights of the Plan Debtors or any Person in any further proceedings involving the Plan Debtors. Subject to any applicable restrictions or rights of the Investors under the Investment Agreements, the Plan Debtors reserve the right to withdraw the Plan with respect to any Plan Debtor and proceed with confirmation of the Plan with respect to any other Plan Debtor, to adjourn confirmation of the Plan for any Plan Debtor, to revoke or withdraw the Plan with respect to any Plan Debtor, or to seek confirmation of an alternative plan with respect to any Plan Debtor at a later time, including a plan substantively consolidating any Plan Debtor with one or more Debtors. In the event the Plan is revoked or withdrawn with respect to a Plan Debtor, nothing contained herein shall constitute or be deemed a waiver or release of any Claims against or Interests in such Plan Debtor withdrawn from the Plan or any other Person or to prejudice in
any manner the rights of such Plan Debtor or any Person in any further proceedings involving such withdrawn Plan Debtor.
13.6 Payment of Statutory Fees
All fees payable pursuant to section 1930 of title 28 of the United States Code due and payable through the Effective Date shall be paid by or on behalf of a Plan Debtor on or before the Effective Date, and amounts due thereafter shall be paid by or on behalf of the Plan Debtor in the ordinary course of business until the entry of a final decree closing the respective Plan Debtor’s Chapter 11 Case. Any deadline for filing Claims in the Chapter 11 Cases shall not apply to fees payable by each respective Plan Debtor pursuant to section 1930 of title 28 of the United States Code.
13.7 Exemption from Transfer Taxes
Pursuant to section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of notes or equity securities under or in connection with the Plan, the creation of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest, the making or assignment of any lease or sublease or the making or delivery of any deed or other instrument of transfer under, in furtherance of, or in connection with the Plan (including in connection with the formation of Spinco and the Spinco Share Distribution and issuance of New GGP Common Stock), including any merger agreements or agreements of consolidation, deeds, bills of sale or assignments executed in connection with any of the transactions contemplated under the Plan shall not be subject to any stamp, real estate transfer, mortgage recording or other similar tax.
13.8 Expedited Tax Determination
The Plan Debtors are authorized to request an expedited determination of taxes under section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for any or all returns filed for, or on behalf of, the Plan Debtors for any and all taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending after the Commencement Date through and including the Effective Date.
13.9 Exhibits/Schedules
All exhibits and schedules to the Plan, including the Plan Supplement, are incorporated into, and are a part of the Plan, as if set forth in full herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any actions required to be taken by a Plan Debtor or any other Person pursuant to the Plan Supplement or any exhibit to the Plan shall be required of, and effectuated by, such Plan Debtor or Person as though such actions were memorialized in full herein.
13.10 Substantial Consummation
On the Effective Date, the Plan shall be deemed to be substantially consummated under sections 1101 and 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.
13.11 Severability of Plan Provisions
In the event that, prior to the Confirmation Date, any term or provision of the Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court shall have the power to alter and interpret such term or provision to make it valid or enforceable to the maximum extent practicable, consistent with the original purpose of the term or provision held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, and such term or provision shall then be applicable as altered or interpreted. The Confirmation Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term and provision of the Plan, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is (a) valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms, (b) integral to the Plan and may not be deleted or modified without the consent of the Plan Debtors, and (c) nonseverable and mutually dependent; provided, however, nothing in this Section 13.11 shall be deemed to amend, waive, modify or delete any provisions of the Investment Agreement without the consent of the Investors.
13.12 Governing Law
Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other federal law is applicable, or to the extent an exhibit to the Plan or Plan Supplement provides otherwise (in which case the governing law specified therein shall be applicable to such exhibit), the rights, duties, and obligations arising under the Plan shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws.
13.13 Computation of Time
In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided, the provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) shall apply.
13.14 Obligations Under Investment Agreements
To the extent any obligations or any of the Plan Debtors under the Investment Agreements, the Texas Teachers Stock Purchase Agreement or related agreements are transferred or assigned to, or assumed by, any successor to (or assignee of) such Plan Debtors, including, New GGP, Reorganized GGP or Spinco, such obligations shall be fully enforceable against such successor or assignee.
13.15 Dissolution of Committees
Upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee shall be deemed to be dissolved with respect to the Plan Debtors and their respective members shall be released and discharged from all further authority, duties, responsibilities and obligations relating to the Chapter 11 Cases; provided, however, the Creditors’ Committee, the Equity Committee and the Fee Committee shall continue in existence following the Effective Date for the sole purpose of addressing matters concerning fees incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.
13.16 Notices
All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Plan Debtors to be effective shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission) and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when actually delivered or, in the case of notice by facsimile transmission, when received and telephonically confirmed, addressed as follows:
