If the Kistefos Transaction is consummated, Liquidating Debtor TMS shall issue a sufficient number of New TMS Equity Interests to the Plan Administrator to dilute the current equity interest of Kistefos in TMS to less than 10%.

All securities issued pursuant to the Plan will be deemed issued as of the Effective Date regardless of the date actually distributed.

(c) Kistefos Transaction

The Kistefos Transaction is a transaction whereby Kistefos AS (or its nominee to be determined), the Holder of approximately 18% of the Old TMS Equity, has agreed to pay a fee, the amount of which is to be determined (the “Kistefos Payment”) to the Debtors in exchange for the Debtors’ agreement to keep the Old TMS Equity outstanding under the Plan for a period of at least two years from the Effective Date. In addition, if necessary in order to reduce the number of record stockholders of the Liquidating Debtors so as to effect a deregistration of the Old TMS Equity under the Securities Act, the Liquidating Debtors may effect a reverse stock split so that each share of Old TMS Equity issued and outstanding prior to the split will be equal to some percentage of a share (with such percentage to be determined) following the split. Following the

reverse stock split all fractional shares of Old TMS Equity will be cancelled. Other than retention of the Old TMS Equity, Holders of Old TMS Equity will not be entitled to any Distributions under the Plan. The Debtors may elect to consummate the Kistefos Transaction if the necessary approvals and other requirements for the transaction can be satisfied.

The Plan Administrator shall establish a Wind-down Reserve and shall pay, among other costs and expenses, wind-down costs and costs of holding and liquidating the Estates’ assets, including, but not limited to, taxes, compensation of the Plan Administrator, and compensation of any professionals retained by the Plan Administrator from the Wind-down Reserve. The Plan Administrator or Plan Advisory Committee, as applicable, must file a notice with the Bankruptcy Court detailing the identity of any attorneys engaged for the purpose of representing the Liquidating Debtors in connection with any Cause of Action, including the D&O Litigation and the Avoidance Actions, and the terms of such engagement. To the extent that the Plan Administrator determines that funds so reserved are insufficient, the proceeds of the continuing liquidation of assets, the EMSL Proceeds and any other assets held by the Liquidating Debtors, to the extent necessary for such purposes, will be allocated to the Wind-down Reserve. The Opco Equity and Warrants may only be monetized in accordance with terms of Section 4.11 and utilized for the purposes contemplated by this Section 4.10 after notice to and an opportunity to object by the Plan Advisory Committee. After all costs associated with a Wind-down Reserve have been paid, and/or upon the reasonable determination by the Plan Administrator that the

funds in the Wind-down Reserve exceed the amounts necessary to pay the expenses for which such fund is established, the remaining or excess funds shall constitute Residual Distribution Assets, and shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

If the Office of the United States Trustee or the Plan Advisory Committee lodges a written objection to a proposed sale, assumption, assignment or transfer of assets within ten days after service of written notice thereof, the Liquidating Debtors or Plan Administrator, as applicable, may not consummate the proposed transaction in accordance with this provision absent mutual agreement by the parties or further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, including Section 3.03(e) hereof, the Plan Administrator shall make all Distributions required under the applicable provisions of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may employ or contract with other entities to assist in or make the Distributions required by the Plan. If the Disbursing Agent is an independent third party designated by the Plan Administrator to serve in such capacity or, in the case of Distributions related to or on account of the 8.125% Notes Secured Claims and the 8.125% Notes Deficiency Claims, the 8.125% Notes Indenture Trustee, such Disbursing Agent shall receive, without further Bankruptcy Court approval, reasonable compensation for Distribution services rendered pursuant to the Plan and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such services from the Liquidating Debtors on terms acceptable to the Plan Administrator.

Cash payments made pursuant to the Plan shall be by check, wire or ACH transfer in U.S. funds or such other currencies utilized in the ordinary course of business of the applicable Debtors or Liquidating Debtors in making such payment as determined by the Plan Administrator or by other means agreed to by the payor and payee or, absent agreement, such commercially reasonable manner as the payor determines in its sole discretion.

Section 5.06 Delivery of Distributions

(a) Addresses for Delivery

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be made by the Disbursing Agent, the Plan Administrator, or the Liquidating Debtors, as the case may be, (i) at the addresses set forth on the proofs of Claim filed by such Holders (or at the last known addresses of such Holders if no proof of Claim is filed or if the Debtors or the Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, have been notified in writing of a change of address), (ii) at the addresses set forth in any written notices of address changes delivered to the Plan Administrator or Disbursing Agent after the date of any related proof of Claim, (iii) at the addresses reflected in the Bankruptcy Schedules if no proof of Claim has been filed and the Disbursing Agent, the Liquidating Debtors, or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, have not received a written notice of a change of address, (iv) in the case of the Holder of a Claim that is governed by an indenture or other agreement and is administered by an indenture trustee, agent, or servicer, at the addresses contained in the official records of such indenture trustee, agent, or servicer, or (v) at the addresses set forth in a properly completed letter of transmittal accompanying securities, if any, properly remitted to the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors, as applicable.

(b) Undeliverable Distributions

If any Holder’s Distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further Distributions to such Holder shall be made unless and until the Disbursing Agent, the Plan Administrator, or the Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, or the appropriate indenture trustee, agent, or servicer is notified of such Holder’s then current address, at which time all missed Distributions shall be made to such Holder without interest. Amounts in respect of undeliverable Distributions made through the Disbursing Agent, the Plan Administrator, or the Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, or the indenture trustee, agent, or servicer, shall be returned to the Liquidating Debtors until such Distributions are claimed. All claims for undeliverable Distributions must be made on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, after which date all unclaimed property shall revert to the Liquidating Debtors free of any restrictions thereon for further Distributions under the Plan and the claim of any Holder or successor to such Holder with respect to such property shall be discharged and forever barred, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.

(c) Non-Negotiated Checks

Checks that are not negotiated within this period will be voided and a stop payment placed on such check after which all unclaimed property shall revert to the Liquidating Debtors free of any restrictions thereon for further Distributions under the Plan and the Claim of any Holder or successor to such Holder with respect to such property shall be discharged and forever barred, notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.

Section 5.07 Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties

(a) Claims Paid by Third Parties

The Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors, the Disbursing Agent, or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, shall reduce a Claim, and such Claim shall be disallowed without a Claim objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives payment in full or in part on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or Liquidating Debtor.

(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 any applicable insurance policies until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy. To the extent that one or more of the applicable insurers agrees to satisfy in full a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, such Claim may be expunged without a Claim objection having to be filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

(c) Applicability of Insurance Policies

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors or any Entity may hold against any other Entity, including insurers under any policies of insurance, nor shall anything contained in the Plan constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses. To the extent that one or more of the Liquidating Debtors’ insurers pays a Claim in full, then immediately upon such payment, such Claim may be expunged without the necessity of filing a Claim objection and without any further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Section 5.08 Fractional Dollars; De Minimis Distributions

Any other provision of the Plan notwithstanding, payments of fractions of dollars shall not be made. Whenever any payment of a fraction of a dollar under the Plan would otherwise be called for, the actual payment made shall reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole dollar (up or down), with half dollars being rounded down. The Disbursing Agent, the Liquidating Debtors, or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, or any indenture trustee, agent, or servicer, as the case may be, shall not make any payment of less than one hundred dollars ($100.00) with respect to any Claim unless a request therefore is made in writing to such Disbursing Agent, the Liquidating Debtors, or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, indenture trustee, agent, or servicer, as the case may be.

Section 5.09 Withholding and Reporting Requirements

ARTICLE VI

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS, UNEXPIRED LEASES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

Section 6.01 Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

On the Effective Date, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, all of the Debtors’ executory contracts and unexpired leases will be rejected unless such executory contract or unexpired lease: (a) is identified on the Assumed Contract Schedule, as may be amended from time to time, as an executory contract or unexpired lease being assumed pursuant to the Plan; (b) is the subject of a motion to assume or reject filed on or before the Confirmation Hearing; (c) has been previously rejected or assumed; or (d) previously expired or terminated pursuant to its own terms before the Effective Date. The Debtors reserve the right to amend the Assumed Contract Schedule at any time prior to the Effective Date to add or delete any contracts listed, but shall not amend any proposed Cure Payment after ten days prior to the Confirmation Hearing without the consent of the applicable contract or lease counterparty or upon motion filed with the Bankruptcy Court and duly served upon such counterparty.

Section 6.02 Inclusiveness

Each executory contract or unexpired lease listed on the Assumed Contract Schedule will include any modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements or other agreements made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument or other document that in any manner affects such contract or agreement, irrespective of whether such agreement, instrument or other document is listed on the Assumed Contract Schedule.

Section 6.03 Approval of Assumption or Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

The Confirmation Order will constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 365, as applicable, (a) the rejection of each executory contract or unexpired lease as set forth herein, as of the Confirmation Date; or (b) the assumption of each executory contract or unexpired lease the Assumed Contract Schedule (as such may be amended prior to the Effective Date), as of and conditioned on the occurrence of the Effective Date. Any counterparty to an executory contract or unexpired lease that fails to object to such assumption by the Plan Voting Deadline will be deemed to have consented to such assumption.

Section 6.04 Pass-Through

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, any rights or arrangements necessary or useful to the operation of the Liquidating Debtors’ activities but not otherwise addressed as a Claim or Interest, including non-exclusive or exclusive patent, trademark, copyright, maskwork or other intellectual property licenses and other executory contracts not assumable under Bankruptcy Code § 365(c), shall, in the absence of any other treatment under the Plan or Confirmation Order, be passed through the Chapter 11 Cases for the benefit of the Liquidating Debtors and the

counterparty shall be deemed unaltered and unaffected by the bankruptcy filings or Chapter 11 Cases.

Section 6.05

Preexisting Obligations to the Debtors Under Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Rejection or repudiation of any executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise shall not constitute a termination of pre-existing obligations owed to the Debtors under such contracts or leases. In particular, notwithstanding any nonbankruptcy law to the contrary, the Liquidating Debtors expressly reserve and do not waive any right to receive, or any continuing obligation of a counterparty to provide, warranties or continued maintenance obligations on goods previously purchased by the contracting Debtors or Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, from counterparties to rejected or repudiated executory contracts or unexpired leases.

Section 6.06 Intercompany Contracts, Assumed Contracts and Leases

Intercompany contracts and executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed by any Debtor may be performed by the applicable Liquidating Debtor in the ordinary course of business after the Effective Date.

Section 6.07 Contracts and Leases Entered Into After Petition Date

Contracts and leases with third parties entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor may be performed by the applicable Liquidating Debtor in the ordinary course of business after the Effective Date.

Section 6.08 Reservation of Rights

Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute an admission by the Liquidating Debtors that any contract or lease is in fact an executory contract or unexpired lease or that any Liquidating Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection, the Debtors or the Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, shall have thirty days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.

Additionally, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if there is a dispute as to Cure Payments, adequate assurance of future performance or any other matter related to any executory contract or unexpired lease, the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors, as the case may be, may, in their sole and absolute discretion, determine to reject any executory contract or unexpired lease at any time prior to thirty days after the entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute. The effective date of any rejection effected pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be the Effective Date regardless of when the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors send notice of such rejection.

Section 6.09 Nonoccurrence of Effective Date

In the event that the Effective Date does not occur, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to any request by the Debtors to extend the deadline for assuming or rejecting unexpired leases pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 365(d)(4).

Section 6.10 Cure Provisions

Except as otherwise provided under the Plan, any Cure Payment shall be effected or otherwise satisfied by prompt payment of such monetary amount as contemplated by Bankruptcy Code § 365(b)(1)(A) or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. The Assumed Contract Schedule sets forth the Cure Payment for each executory contract and unexpired lease to be assumed by the Debtors. If the non-Debtor party to the executory contract or unexpired lease objects to the proposed Cure Payment, such non-Debtor party must file an objection with the Bankruptcy Court to such Cure Payment on or before the Plan Voting Deadline; failure to timely file such objection shall be deemed acceptance by such non-Debtor party of the Cure Payment for all purposes. If there is a dispute regarding (a) the timing of any Cure Payment required in order to meet the promptness requirement of § 365(b)(1), (b) the nature, extent or amount of any cure requirement, (c) the Liquidating Debtors’ ability or the ability of the Debtors’ assignees to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code § 365) under the contract or lease to be assumed, or (d) any other matter pertaining to assumption, subject to the provisions of the Plan, Cure Payment will occur on the next occurring Distribution Date following the entry of a Final Order resolving the dispute and approving the assumption or assumption and assignment, as the case may be.

�� To the extent it is impossible for a Liquidating Debtor to cure a default arising from any failure to perform a non-monetary obligation, such default shall be cured by performance by the applicable Liquidating Debtor (or its assignee, as to the case may be) at or after assumption (and assignment, if applicable) in accordance with the terms of the applicable unexpired lease or executory contract, with the applicable executory contract or unexpired lease remaining in effect for the benefit of the applicable Liquidating Debtor. Any non-Debtor party objecting to such cure of non-monetary obligations must file an objection to such cure with the Bankruptcy Court on or before the Plan Voting Deadline; failure to timely file such objection shall be deemed acceptance by such non-Debtor party of the cure of non-monetary defaults for all purposes.

Section 6.11 Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Unless otherwise provided by an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease, if the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease gives rise to a Claim by the non-Debtor party to such executory contract or unexpired lease, such Claim shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors, their Estates, the Liquidating Debtors, the Plan Administrator or any of their respective assets or property, unless a proof of Claim is Filed and served on the Debtors or Plan Administrator, as applicable, no later than thirty days after the later of the (i) filing of a notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date or (ii) entry of an order authorizing the rejection of such executory contract or

unexpired lease. All Allowed Claims arising from the rejection of the Debtors’ executory contracts and unexpired leases shall be classified as General Unsecured Claims or Qualified Investor Claims, as applicable, and shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of the Plan;provided, however, if the Holder of an Allowed Claim (other than Maritime Lien Claims) for rejection damages has an unavoidable security interest in any Collateral to secure obligations under such rejected executory contract or unexpired lease, the Allowed Claim for rejection damages shall be treated as an Other Secured Claim to the extent of the value of such Holder’s interest in the Collateral, with the deficiency, if any, treated as a General Unsecured Claim or Qualified Investor Claim, as applicable.

Section 6.12 Indemnification Rights and Insurance Coverage

Pursuant to the Holdco / Opco Settlement, the Opco Entities have purchased for the benefit of the existing TMS directors, officers and employees, those TMS directors, officers and employees holding such positions as of the Petition Date, and their respective affiliates, representatives, advisors and agents, a six year tail director and officer insurance coverage policy consistent with existing policies.

The Indemnification Rights and insurance coverage provided pursuant to the Holdco / Opco Settlement by the Opco Entities shall not be affected in any manner by the Plan.

Section 6.13 Insurance Policies and Agreements

The insurance policies issued to, or insurance agreements entered into by, the Debtors prior to the Petition Date set forth in the Plan Supplement shall continue in effect after the Effective Date for the benefit of the Liquidating Debtors and all other beneficiaries thereof. To the extent that such insurance policies or agreements are considered to be executory contracts, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Plan shall constitute a motion to assume (and assign to the Liquidating Debtors if necessary to continue such insurance policies in full force) or ratify such insurance policies and agreements, and, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute approval of such assumption (and assignment, if necessary) pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 365(a) and a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that each such assumption (and assignment, if necessary) is in the best interest of each Debtor and its Estate. Unless otherwise determined by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to a Final Order or agreed to by the parties thereto prior to the Effective Date, no payments shall be required to cure any defaults of the Debtors existing as of the Confirmation Date with respect to each such insurance policy or agreements. If the Bankruptcy Court determines otherwise as to any such insurance policy or agreement, the Debtors reserve the right to seek the rejection of such insurance policy or agreement or other available relief.

ARTICLE VII
PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED,
CONTINGENT, AND UNLIQUIDATED CLAIMS

Section 7.01 Objections to Claims

(a) Authority

Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors, or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, shall have the exclusive authority to file, settle, compromise, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any objections to Claims. Subject to Section 4.08 hereof, from and after the Effective Date, the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, may settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Subject to Section 4.08 hereof, the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, also shall have the right to resolve any Disputed Claim outside the Bankruptcy Court under applicable governing law.

(b) Objection Deadline

As soon as practicable, but no later than the Claims Objection Deadline, the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, may file objections with the Bankruptcy Court and serve such objections on the Creditors holding the Claims to which objections are made. Nothing contained herein, however, shall limit the right of the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, to object to Claims, if any, filed or amended after the Claims Objection Deadline. The Claims Objection Deadline may be extended by the Bankruptcy Court upon motion by the applicable Liquidating Debtor or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, without notice or hearing. Bankruptcy Rule 9006-2 shall apply to any motion to extend the Claims Objection Deadline.

Section 7.02 Estimation of Claims

Any Debtor, Liquidating Debtor, or the Plan Administrator (or their authorized representatives), as applicable, may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 502(c), regardless of whether the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, have previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim or including during the pendency of any appeal related to any such objection. In the event the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount will constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on such Claim, the Debtors, Liquidating Debtors, or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to

object to any ultimate payment on such Claim. All of the aforementioned objection, estimation and resolution procedures are cumulative and are not necessarily exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and thereafter resolved by any permitted mechanism.

Section 7.03 No Distributions Pending Allowance

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no payments or Distributions shall be made with respect to all or any portion of a Disputed Claim unless and until all objections to such Disputed Claim have been settled or withdrawn or have been determined by Final Order, and the Disputed Claim, or some portion thereof, has become an Allowed Claim. The Plan Administrator shall maintain a reserve for distribution on account of Disputed Claims sufficient to cover such Claims in the event they become Allowed Claims in whole or in part.

Section 7.04 Distributions After Allowance

The Disbursing Agent shall make payments and Distributions to each Holder of a Disputed Claim that has become an Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of the Plan governing the Class of Claims to which such Holder belongs. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing all or part of any Disputed Claim becomes a Final Order, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the Holder of such Claim the Distribution (if any) that would have been made to such Holder on the Distribution Date had such Allowed Claim been allowed on the Distribution Date.

Section 7.05 Claims Already Satisfied

Notwithstanding the contents of the Bankruptcy Schedules, Claims listed therein as undisputed, liquidated and not contingent shall be reduced by the amount, if any, that was paid by the Debtors prior to the Effective Date including pursuant to orders of the Bankruptcy Court. To the extent such payments are not reflected in the Bankruptcy Schedules, such Bankruptcy Schedules will be deemed amended and reduced to reflect that such payments were made. Nothing in the Plan shall preclude the Liquidating Debtors from paying Claims that the Liquidating Debtors were authorized to pay pursuant to any Final Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Confirmation Date.

Section 7.06 Compliance with Tax Requirements/Allocations

In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Liquidating Debtors shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on them by any governmental unit, and all Distributions pursuant hereto shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements. Distributions received by Holders of Claims in satisfaction of interest-bearing obligations shall be allocated first to the full satisfaction of principal of such interest-bearing obligations and second in satisfaction of any accrued and unpaid interest. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, (or their authorized representatives) and/or the Disbursing Agent shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding

and reporting requirements, including liquidating a portion of the Distributions to be made under the Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, withholding Distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such Distributions, or establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate. The Liquidating Debtors or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, reserve the right to allocate all Distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support, and other spousal awards, liens and encumbrances.

Section 12.07 Permanent Injunction

This Plan provides and the Confirmation Order shall provide, among other things, that any Person (other than the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors, the Creditors’ Committee, the Estates or the Plan Administrator) who has held, holds, or may hold a Claim against or Interest in the Debtors, the Estates, or the Liquidating Debtors, or any Claim against or Interest in any Person (including any Debtor) for which the Debtors or the Liquidating Debtors are or may be directly liable or indirectly liable by way of contribution, indemnity (including an obligation to pay defense costs under the Plan or otherwise) or otherwise is, with respect to any such Claim or Interest, permanently enjoined from and after the Effective Date from taking any of the following actions (i) asserting, commencing, conducting, or continuing in any manner, directly or indirectly, any suit, action or other proceeding of any kind (including, without limitation, any proceeding in a judicial, arbitral, administrative or other forum) against or affecting any of the Debtors, the Estates, or the Liquidating Debtors on account of any Claim for which the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors are directly or indirectly liable by way of contribution, indemnity or otherwise, (ii) enforcing, levying, attaching (including, without limitation, any prejudgment attachment), collecting or otherwise recovering by any manner or means, whether directly or indirectly, any judgment, award, decree or order against any of the Debtors, the Estates, or the Liquidating Debtors; (iii) creating, perfecting or otherwise enforcing in any manner, directly or indirectly, any Lien of any kind against the Debtors,

Any Person injured by any willful violation of such injunction shall recover actual damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, and, in appropriate circumstances, may recover punitive damages, from the willful violator(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holders of Disputed Claims are not enjoined from and shall retain all rights to defend or prosecute such Disputed Claims in the Bankruptcy Court, including, without limitation, the right to assert affirmative defenses, setoff, or recoupment, if applicable.

Section 12.08 Releases by the Debtors and their Estates

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan and subject to the terms of any prior Bankruptcy Court orders, in consideration of, among other things, the Distributions and the obligations of the Debtors contemplated hereby, and the other contracts, instruments, releases, agreements, waivers, and documents to be executed and delivered in connection with the Plan, and in consideration of the efforts of the following parties to facilitate the implementation of the transactions contemplated by the Plan, each of the Debtors and any Person or Entity seeking to exercise rights or claims on behalf of the Debtors and their Estates shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever, waived, released and discharged the Protected Parties from all claims, obligations, suits, damages, demands, debts, rights, or Causes of Action the Debtors or the Liquidating Debtors may have against the Protected Parties of whatever kind or nature, whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, in law or equity, that are based in whole or in part on any act, omission, transaction, event, or other occurrence taking place on or prior to the Effective Date, relating to or in connection with the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the Holdco / Opco Settlement and the Opco Restructuring, the conduct of the Debtors’ business, or the Plan;provided, however,that the foregoing release (i) will have no effect on the liability of any Protected Parties arising from an act, omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence determined by a Final Order to constitute fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence; and (ii) will not constitute a release or waiver of any defense available to the Debtors or the Liquidating Debtors in connection with any Disputed Claim (including Administrative Claims) asserted against the Debtors, their Estates, or the Liquidating Debtors by any Protected Party. The releases described herein shall be binding upon all Persons. Accordingly, all Persons shall hereby be enjoined from commencing or continuing any action, employment of process, or act to collect, offset, or recover any such

claim that could be brought on behalf of or in the name of the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors or their Estates including any derivative claims asserted or assertable on behalf of the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors or their Estates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in any proceeding brought by the Creditors’ Committee or any other person or entity on behalf of the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors (an “Estate Representative”) against any individuals serving or having served as directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives of the Debtors during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases (the “Present Management”), the Estate Representative will not seek any recovery in excess of the dollar amount of the policy limits, as such limits have been actually reduced from time to time by defense costs or other claims made against such policies, of any available directors and officers liability insurance; nothing contained herein shall relieve the Present Management from any liability on a claim for any amount less than the policy limits of any available directors and officers liability insurance. However, should there be no directors and officers liability insurance (including without limitation any deductible or retention) available with respect to a claim, the Estate Representative will not seek recovery on that claim against the Present Management. If the Estate Representative obtains a judgment on a claim against any of the Debtors’ former officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives and such former officer, director, employee, agent or representative obtains a Final Order against any of the Present Management by reason of contribution, indemnification or other claim related to such claim (a “D&O Contribution Claim”), the Estate Representative will reduce its judgment against such former officer, director, employee, agent or representative by the amount of such D&O Contribution Claim.

Section 12.09 Releases by Holders of Claims and Interests

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, in consideration of, among other things, the Distributions and the obligations of the Debtors contemplated hereby, and the other contracts, instruments, releases, agreements, waivers, and documents to be executed and delivered in connection with the Plan, and in consideration of the efforts of the following parties to facilitate the implementation of the transactions contemplated by the Plan, all Holders of Claims and Interests who vote in favor of the Plan, for themselves and on behalf of their respective successors and assigns, shall be deemed to have conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, and forever, released, and discharged the Protected Parties from any and all claims, interests, obligations, rights, suits, damages, losses, costs and expenses, actions, causes of action, remedies, and liabilities of any kind or character whatsoever, including any derivative claims asserted or assertable on behalf of the Debtors, the Liquidating Debtors or their Estates, or any claims arising out of, or relating to, any alleged fiduciary or other duty, any alleged violation of any federal or state securities law or any other law relating to creditors’ rights generally, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that such Entity ever had, now has or hereafter can, shall or may have, or otherwise would have been entitled to assert (whether individually or collectively or directly or derivatively), against any Protected Party arising from or relating to, directly or

indirectly, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Debtors’ restructuring, the operation of or administration of the Debtors’ business and assets, the Chapter 11 Cases, the purchase, sale or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the Debtors, the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements among any two or more of any Debtor or any Affiliate thereof, any Liquidating Debtor or any Protected Party (and the acts or omissions of any other Protected Party in connection therewith), the restructuring of Claims and Interests prior to or in the Chapter 11 Cases, the Holdco / Opco Settlement and the Opco Restructuring, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan, Disclosure Statement, or related agreements, instruments, or other documents, or any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event, or other occurrence, including the management and operation of the Debtors, taking place on or before the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.09 shall release any Protected Party from liability for any act, omission, transaction, agreement, event or other occurrence determined by a Final Order to constitute fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.09 shall be deemed to assert or imply any admission of liability on the part of any of the parties released hereby.

Section 12.10 Satisfaction of Claims

The rights afforded in the Plan and the treatment of all Claims and Interests herein shall be in exchange for and in complete satisfaction and release of all Claims and Interests of any nature whatsoever against the Debtors or any of their Estates, assets, properties, or interests in property. Except as otherwise provided herein, on the Effective Date, all Claims against and Interests in the Debtors shall be deemed satisfied in full. Neither the Liquidating Debtors, nor their Affiliates, shall be responsible for any pre-Effective Date obligations of the Debtors except those expressly assumed by the Liquidating Debtors or their Affiliates, as applicable. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Persons and Entities shall be precluded and forever barred from asserting against Liquidating Debtors, the Debtors and their Affiliates, their respective successors or assigns, or their Estates, assets, properties, or interests in property any event, occurrence, condition, thing, or other or further Claims or causes of action based upon any act, omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred or came into existence prior to the Effective Date, whether or not the facts of or legal bases therefore were known or existed prior to the Effective Date.

Section 12.11 Third Party Agreements; Subordination

The Distributions to the various Classes of Claims and Equity Interests hereunder shall not affect the right of any Person to levy, garnish, attach, or employ any other legal process with respect to such Distributions by reason of any claimed subordination rights or otherwise. All of such rights and any agreements relating thereto shall remain in full force and effect,exceptas compromised and settled pursuant to the Plan. Distributions to Holders of Claims in Classes that are subject to contractual subordination provisions are subject to distribution in accordance with

such contractual subordination provisions as provided in the Plan. Distributions shall be subject to and modified by any Final Order directing Distributions other than as provided in the Plan. The right of the Debtors to seek subordination of any Claim or Equity Interest pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 510 is fully reserved, and the treatment afforded any Claim or Equity Interest that becomes a subordinated Claim or subordinated Equity Interest at any time shall be modified to reflect such subordination. Unless the Confirmation Order provides otherwise, no Distributions shall be made on account of a subordinated Claim or subordinated Equity Interest.

Section 12.12 Binding Effect

The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Liquidating Debtors, all present and former Holders of Claims against and Interests in the Liquidating Debtors, their respective successors and assigns, and all other parties-in-interest in the Chapter 11 Cases.

Section 12.13 Plan Supplement

Any and all exhibits, lists, or schedules not filed with the Plan or Disclosure Statement shall be contained in the Plan Supplement and filed with the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court not later than ten days prior to the Plan Voting Deadline or such other filing deadline as may be approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or Confirmation Order, all temporary injunctions or stays provided for in the Chapter 11 Cases under Bankruptcy Code §§ 105 or 362 or otherwise, and in existence on the Confirmation Date (excluding any injunctions or stays contained in the Plan or Confirmation Order), shall remain in full force and effect until all property of the Debtors and the Liquidating Debtors has been distributed, the Liquidating Debtors have been dissolved, the Plan Administrator Agreement has terminated and the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order closing the Chapter 11 Cases.

pursuant to the Plan on account of such Allowed Claim or Interest (before such Distribution is made), any Claims, rights, and Causes of Action of any nature that such Debtor or Liquidating Debtor, as applicable, may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim or Interest, to the extent such Claims, rights, or Causes of Action against such Holder have not been otherwise compromised or settled on or prior to the Effective Date (whether pursuant to the Plan or otherwise);provided, however, that neither the failure to effect such a setoff or right of recoupment nor the allowance of any Claim or Interest pursuant to the Plan shall constitute a waiver or release by such Debtor or Liquidating Debtor of any such Claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Debtor or Liquidating Debtor may possess against such Holder. In no event shall any Holder of Claims or Interests be entitled to setoff or exercise a right of recoupment against any Claim or Interest against any Claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtor or Liquidating Debtor, as applicable, unless such Holder has filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting the authority to perform such action on or before the Confirmation Date, and notwithstanding any indication in any proof of Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any rights of setoff or recoupment pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

Any of the New TMS Equity Interests to be distributed under the provisions of the Plan to any Entity required to file a Premerger Notification and Report Form under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, shall not be distributed until the notification and waiting periods applicable under such Act to such Entity shall have expired or been terminated.

Section 12.20 Governing Law

Unless a rule of law or procedure is supplied by federal law (including the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules), the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof, shall govern the construction and implementation of the Plan and any agreements, documents, and instruments executed in connection with the Plan (except as otherwise set forth in those agreements, in which case the governing law of such agreement shall control) as well as corporate governance matters with respect to the Liquidating

Debtors;provided, however, that corporate governance matters relating to the Debtors or Liquidating Debtors, as applicable, not organized under Delaware law shall be governed by the laws of the state of organization of such Debtor or Liquidating Debtor.
