Cases; and after due deliberation and sufficient cause appearing therefore;
IT IS HEREBY FOUND, DETERMINED, AND ORDERED:2 
A.
Events Leading to the Commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases

1.
The Debtors’ Businesses

1.    As established in the record of these Chapter 11 Cases, Rotech is one of
the largest providers of home medical equipment and related products and
services in the United States. Rotech derives its revenues primarily from
reimbursement by third-party payors. Like many participants in the healthcare
business sector, since its inception, Rotech has experienced declining revenues
resulting from permanent reductions in rates of reimbursement by third-party
payors, including Medicare, Medicaid, the Veterans Administration, commercial
payors, and private insurers. Rotech’s ending cash position on a weekly basis
was tenuous in the months prior to the Commencement Date. A substantial portion
of Rotech’s cash flow from operations
2 These Findings and Conclusions constitute the Court’s findings of fact and
conclusions of law under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 52, as made applicable
herein by Bankruptcy Rules 7052 and 9014. Each finding of fact, to the extent it
is a conclusion of law, shall also constitute a conclusion of law. Each
conclusion of law, to the extent that it is a finding of fact, shall also
constitute a finding of fact.

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

was required to be dedicated to interest payments and therefore was not
available for operations, working capital, capital expenditures, expansion,
acquisitions, or general corporate or other purposes. Rotech was more highly
leveraged than its major national competitors, which placed it at a competitive
disadvantage in terms of its ability to capitalize on business opportunities and
to react to competitive pressures and changes in its industry as compared to its
competitors. Rotech was vulnerable in the event of a downturn in its business,
its industry, or the economy in general.
2.    The record of these Chapter 11 Cases has established that, as of the
Commencement Date, Rotech had three primary forms of commercial indebtedness:
(i) a $25 million term loan facility (see infra at ¶ 5); (ii) $230 million in
aggregate principal amount of 10.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 (the “First
Lien Notes”); and (iii) $290 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior
Secured Second Lien Notes (the “Second Lien Notes”). Upon origination of the
Second Lien Notes, certain directors of the Company acquired less than 2% of the
issuance, and such fact was immediately disclosed in Rotech’s public filings.
2.
Rotech’s Board of Directors Confronts Financial Pressures

3.    After testing various restructuring options with the help of a financial
advisor for several years, in September 2011, Rotech’s Board of Directors
formally considered a host of restructuring alternatives, including: (i)
merger/sale; (ii) refinancing or amendment of senior debt obligations; (iii)
conversion of debt to equity; (iv) raising cash from non-commercial sources; and
(v) chapter 11. A “Special Committee” comprised of the members of the Board of
Directors which did not hold Second Lien Notes was formed in October 2012. To
the extent any of such restructuring discussions took place with the holders of
the Second Lien Notes, the discussions were overseen by the Special Committee.
The Special Committee retained its own counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, for
advice as to how to carry out its fiduciary duties to

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rotech and its shareholders, and met with its counsel by phone or in person on
the following dates: October 9, 2012; October 22, 2012; November 15, 2012;
November 24, 2012; February 27, 2013; March 1, 2013; March 2, 2013; March 20,
2013; March 22, 2013; April 4, 2013; April 11, 2013; April 19, 2013; April 26,
2013; May 10, 2013; May 11, 2013; May 12, 2013; June 3, 2013; June 7, 2013; June
10, 2013; June 13, 2013; June 21, 2013; June 25, 2013; July 15, 2013; and July
22, 2013. The Special Committee members and advisors were independent of
Rotech’s creditors for all purposes including the negotiation of a restructuring
of Rotech’s notes.
4.    In October 2012, pursuant to the Board of the Directors’ direction,
management and one of the members of the Special Committee interviewed several
candidates to serve as the Company’s financial advisor. Ultimately, the Board of
Directors selected Barclays Capital (“Barclays”) to serve as its financial
advisor.
3.
Restructuring Proposals

5.    The Company’s management and Barclays determined the Company needed
additional liquidity to meet its financial obligations in 2013. The Company
received financing proposals from a number of sources, including Silver Point
Finance, LLC (“Silver Point”), an owner of substantial first lien debt and some
second lien debt. Prior to any discussion of a specific proposal, Arthur
Reimers, a member of the Board of Directors, disclosed a personal financial
interest in Silver Point, and recused himself from any discussion and vote with
respect to any potential financing from Silver Point. After consultation with
Barclays, the Board of Directors ultimately determined a proposal from Silver
Point for a $25 million term loan facility presented the best option for the
Company.
6.    The Board of Directors, assisted by its legal and financial advisors,
continued to consider restructuring alternatives, including the continuation of
the sale process commenced two years prior by Credit Suisse serving as Rotech’s
financial advisor.

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7.    Interest payments were due in respect of the Second Lien Notes and the
First Lien Notes in March 2013 and April 2013, respectively. The Board of
Directors and the Special Committee agreed the Company, through its advisors,
would commence negotiations with the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders, key
holders of the Second Lien Notes. Barclays presented to the Board of Directors
its recommendation as to the proper opening offer to be made to the holders of
the Second Lien Notes that would give some value to the Company’s current equity
holders. The Special Committee considered Barclays’ recommendation and
authorized Barclays to make a proposal that would convert the Second Lien Notes
to equity and give some value to the current common shareholders.
8.    The holders of the Second Lien Notes made a formal counterproposal, which
the Board of Directors evaluated with the assistance of their legal and
financial advisors. The Board of Directors specifically asked Barclays to
provide its view regarding the Second Lien Noteholders’ position on shareholder
value, and the discussion included all related factors, including the Company’s
current performance, the “head winds” facing the Company from a competitive
perspective, the value of giving some value to equity holders in order to move
quickly through a restructuring versus a long and drawn-out “free fall”
bankruptcy (referred to as cooperation consideration). A member of the Special
Committee stated that, before responding to the counteroffer, the Board of
Directors must see and review the updated projections being developed by
Barclays, and that the Board of Directors needed to methodically go through all
aspects of the go-forward financial projections with Barclays as Barclays
completed the updates.
9.    The Special Committee considered the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders’
counterproposal and solicited the views of an independent director on the Board
of Directors. The full Board of Directors then discussed the Consenting Second
Lien Noteholders’ counterproposal. Barclays and the Board of Directors engaged
in a detailed discussion regarding

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the various components of the counteroffer. The Board of Directors and its
advisors discussed, inter alia, whether opportunity existed to negotiate more
for shareholders. The Special Committee then conferred with their independent
counsel to discuss their recommendation for a response to the counterproposal,
and then reviewed the projections and outlook for the Company contained in
Barclays’ presentation. The Special Committee subsequently informed the Board of
the instructions provided to Barclays to continue negotiations with the
Consenting Second Lien Noteholders.
10.    The Second Lien Noteholders’ support was critical to success of a
chapter 11 plan because the second lien debt could not be converted to equity
under a plan without their consent. The Consenting Second Lien Noteholders
agreed, that under the proposed chapter 11 plan, Rotech shareholders would be
given ten cents per share up to $2.62 million by means of a gift from the
secured lenders because the absolute priority rule would otherwise prevent the
plan from distributing value to shareholders when creditors were not paid in
full.
4.
Plan Support Agreement

11.    On March 15, 2013, the Company filed an 8-K announcing an agreement with
certain holders of its Second Lien Notes, which agreement was memorialized in a
plan support agreement.
12.    Counsel for the Company received a proposal for an out-of-court
debt‑to‑equity conversion through a tender/exchange of the Second Lien Notes.
The Board of Directors, assisted by their counsel, considered this proposal and
determined it failed to address impending liquidity issues such as the payment
of interest due to holders of the First Lien Notes and the Second Lien Notes.

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13.    The Rotech Board of Directors received regular updates from its advisors
regarding preparations for commencing chapter 11 cases, negotiations with the
holders of secured debt, and potential DIP financing.
B.
The Chapter 11 Cases

14.    Case Commencement. On April 8, 2013, each of the Debtors commenced a
voluntary case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
15.    Joint Administration. On April 9, 2013, this Court entered an order
authorizing the joint administration of the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases. The
Debtors continued to operate their businesses and manage their properties as
debtors in possession as authorized by sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the
Bankruptcy Code. No trustee or examiner was requested or appointed in these
Chapter 11 Cases.
16.    Claims and Noticing Agent. By order dated April 9, 2013, this Court
approved the retention of Epiq as claims and noticing agent in the Debtors’
Chapter 11 Cases.
17.    Statutory Committee Appointment. On April 18, 2013, the United States
Trustee for the District of Delaware (the “U.S. Trustee”) appointed a statutory
creditors’ committee pursuant to section 1102 of the Bankruptcy Code (the
“Creditors’ Committee”).
18.    Equity Committee Appointment. On April 24, 2013, the U.S. Trustee
appointed a statutory equity committee pursuant to section 1102 of the
Bankruptcy Code (the “Equity Committee”).
19.    Chapter 11 Plan Amendment. In light of revised projections prepared by
Barclays on April 3, 2013, Rotech and the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders
determined that Rotech’s initial chapter 11 plan was not feasible. As a result,
Rotech and the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders negotiated a new plan under
which the creditors furnished additional exit financing, but which provided
smaller distributions to general unsecured claims and no

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

distributions to Rotech shareholders. The administrative expenses of the Rotech
Chapter 11 Cases also increased materially with the appointment of the Equity
Committee and the pleadings it filed.
20.    Bar Date. On June 10, 2013, this Court issued an order (i) establishing
July 12, 2013 at 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) as the date by which each
person or entity, other than governmental units, must file a proof of claim
based on prepetition claims against the Debtors, and October 7, 2013 as the date
by which any governmental unit must file a proof of claim based upon prepetition
claims against the Debtors; and (ii) approving related notice procedures.
21.    Continuing Sale Process. The Board of Directors and the Special Committee
directed the Company to continue its sale process during the Chapter 11 Cases to
avoid overlooking any method by which value might be procured for shareholders.
To that end, Barclays approached more than 87 entities (strategic buyers and
financial buyers), including entities recommended by the Equity Committee. As of
the Confirmation Hearing, Rotech’s liabilities approximated $647.5 million
without counting the Second Lien Noteholders’ make‑whole claim, and the highest
expression of interest received in the sale process was $450 million.
22.    Officer and Director Diligence. Having considered all the plausible
methods of restructuring Rotech’s debt, with advisors providing the requisite
expertise, and having used an independent special committee with independent
advisors to assure them that Rotech’s shareholders’ interests would not be
compromised, it is clear that they formulated

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rotech’s restructuring on an informed basis,3 in good faith, and in an honest
belief that their decision was in the best interests of Rotech and its
shareholders.
23.    Officer and Director Independence. Rotech’s directors created its Special
Committee so that directors who owned Rotech debt would not make decisions
concerning the restructuring of the debt. The two members of the Special
Committee owned Rotech common shares and no Rotech debt. The chairman of the
board, Arthur Reimers, recused himself from restructuring decisions and from
financing decisions because he owned a small amount of Rotech debt and has an
interest in Silver Point, which was a creditor and was providing postpetition
and exit financing. Accordingly, all the restructuring and financing decisions
were made by independent directors having no conflicting loyalties.
C.
Approval of the Disclosure Statement and Solicitation of Votes for the Plan

1.
The Disclosure Statement Order

24.    On June 13, 2013, the Debtors filed the Plan and the Disclosure
Statement. By the Disclosure Statement Order, the Court approved the Disclosure
Statement as containing information of a kind, and in sufficient detail,
adequate to enable a hypothetical, reasonable investor to make an informed
judgment with respect to the acceptance or rejection of the Plan in accordance
with section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Court also established August 8,
2013 at 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern Time) as the voting deadline for ballots
to be delivered to Epiq for the acceptance or rejection of the Plan, and August
20, 2013 as the date of the Confirmation Hearing. By notice dated August 1,
2013, the Confirmation Hearing was adjourned until August 29, 2013 [Docket No.
805].

3 “…A board is not required to be informed of every fact, but rather is required
to be reasonably informed.” Brehm v. Eisner, 746 A.2d 244, 261 (Del. 2000).

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.
The Solicitation and Tabulation of Votes

25.    Consistent with the Disclosure Statement Order, the Debtors distributed
to all Claim holders entitled to vote sealed solicitation packages (the
“Solicitation Packages”) containing solicitation materials, including ballots
for voting on the Plan. See Voting Decl. at ¶ 7 and the Affidavit of Service of
Solicitation Materials, filed July 25, 2013 [Docket No. 752]. At the conclusion
of the solicitation process, the Debtors received sufficient votes in favor of
the Plan to support their request for an order confirming the Plan. See Voting
Decl. at Ex. A.
26.    Of the Classes entitled to vote on Rotech’s Plan, Rotech Class 3, Rotech
Class 4, and Rotech Class 5.1 voted to accept the Plan. See id. Of the Classes
entitled to vote on each of the Guarantor Debtor’s Plans, GD Class 3, GD Class
4, and GD Class 5.1 voted to accept the Plan, with the exception of Class 5.1 at
Guarantor Debtor LAMS, Inc. (“LAMS” and “LAMS Class 5.1”). See id. Rotech Class
1, Rotech Class 2, Rotech Class 5, GD Class 1, GD Class 2, GD Class 5, and GD
Class 7 (collectively, the “Unimpaired Classes”) are unimpaired under the Plan
and are conclusively presumed to accept the Plan, and, thus, were not entitled
to vote. Rotech Class 7 is impaired, will not receive or retain any property
under the Plan, and is conclusively deemed to reject the Plan, and, thus, was
not entitled to vote.
D.
Burden of Proof

27.    The Debtors have demonstrated, by a preponderance of the evidence, that
all of the requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code have been
satisfied with respect to the Plan.
E.
Compliance with Requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code

1.
Section 1129(a)(1): Compliance with the Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

28.    Pursuant to section 1129(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, a plan must
“compl[y] with the applicable provisions of [the Bankruptcy Code].” 11 U.S.C. §
1129(a)(1). This provision ensures the requirements of sections 1122 and 1123 of
the Bankruptcy Code, which govern classification of claims and contents of a
plan, respectively, are met. As set forth below, the Plan complies fully with
the requirements of sections 1121, 1122, and 1123, as well as other applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
i.
Compliance with Section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code

29.    Section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a debtor may file a
plan at any time during a voluntary case and, during the exclusive period to
file a plan, only the debtor may do so. See 11 U.S.C. §§ 1121(a), (b). On June
13, 2013, prior to the expiration of the Debtors’ exclusive periods, the Debtors
filed the Plan, in accordance with section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code.
ii.
Compliance with Section 1122(a) of the Bankruptcy Code

30.    Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code sets forth the requirements for the
classification of claims and interests in a plan. Section 1122(a) provides:

Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, a plan may place a claim
or an interest in a particular class only if such claim or interest is
substantially similar to the other claims or interests of such class.
11 U.S.C. § 1122(a). A plan may provide for multiple classes of claims or
interests as long as each claim or interest within a class is substantially
similar to other claims or interests in that class. The Bankruptcy Code does not
require that all similar claims be placed in one class.
31.    In accordance with section 1122(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of
the Plan provides that each Class of Claims and Equity Interests under the Plan
contains only

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Claims or Equity Interests that are substantially similar to the other Claims or
Equity Interests in that Class. Specifically, Article III of the Plan segregates
into separate Classes the Claims and Equity Interests relevant to the applicable
Debtor as follows:
Class
Treatment
Entitled to Vote
ROTECH PLAN
Rotech Class 1 – Non-Tax Priority Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
Rotech Class 2 – First Lien Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
Rotech Class 3 – Second Lien Notes Claims
Impaired
Yes
Rotech Class 4 – Other Secured Claims
Impaired
Yes
Rotech Class 5 – Qualified Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
Rotech Class 5.1 – General Unsecured Claims
Impaired
Yes
Rotech Class 6 – Debtors Intercompany Claims
Unimpaired/Impaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept/deemed to reject)
Rotech Class 7 – Equity Interests
Impaired
No (deemed to reject)
GUARANTOR DEBTOR PLANS
GD Class 1 – Non-Tax Priority Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
GD Class 2 – First Lien Guaranty Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
GD Class 3 – Second Lien Notes Guaranty Claims
Impaired
Yes
GD Class 4 – Other Secured Claims
Impaired
Yes
GD Class 5 – Qualified Claims
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)
GD Class 5.1 – General Unsecured Claims
Impaired
Yes
GD Class 6 – Debtor Intercompany Claims
Unimpaired/Impaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept/deemed to reject)
GD Class 7 – Equity Interests
Unimpaired
No (conclusively presumed to accept)

32.    The separate Classes reflect the diverse nature of the Claims against and
Equity Interests in the Debtors, and the legal rights under the Bankruptcy Code
of each of the

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

holders of Claims or Equity Interests in a particular Class. Priority non-tax
Claims are classified in Rotech Class 1 and GD Class 1 because section 507 of
the Bankruptcy Code entitles holders of such claims to priority status. Secured
Claims are classified in Rotech Class 2, Rotech Class 3, Rotech Class 4, GD
Class 2, GD Class 3, and GD Class 4 because such Claims are secured by
collateral. Such Claims are classified separately because each Class has
distinct rights with relation to their collateral. Qualified Claims are
classified in Rotech Class 5 and GD Class 5. General Unsecured Claims are
classified in Rotech Class 5.1 and GD Class 5.1. Qualified Claims will receive
different treatment from other unsecured claims under the Plan – 100% of each
Allowed Claim – in exchange for either (i) executing and delivering to the
Reorganized Debtors a New Rotech Supplier Credit Agreement no later than 10 days
prior to the Confirmation Date, or (ii) for those holders whose Allowed Claim is
equal to or less than $5,000, indicating on the Ballot election to be bound by a
New Rotech Supplier Credit Agreement.4 Debtor Intercompany Claims are also
classified separately from other unsecured claims, in Rotech Class 6 and GD
Class 6, because such Claims consist of Claims by a Debtor against another
Debtor and receive no distributions. Finally, Equity Interests are classified in
Rotech Class 7 and GD Class 7, respectively, because such interests represent
the equity interests in the respective Debtors.
33.    The classification scheme set forth in the Plan, and the underlying bases
for the separate classifications of the Claims and Equity Interests into the
Classes, demonstrate that the Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1122(a)
of the Bankruptcy Code.
iii.
Compliance with Section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy Code

34.    Section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy Code contains seven requirements that
4 The Carter Claim is also classified as a Qualified Claim.

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

every chapter 11 plan must satisfy. 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a). The Plan complies with
each of these requirements.
(a)
Designation of Classes of Claims and Interests

35.    In accordance with section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, Article III of
the Plan properly designates separate Classes of Claims and Equity Interests and
thus satisfies the requirement of section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code.
(b)
Specification of Unimpaired Classes

36.    Section 1123(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the Plan “specify
any class of claims or interests that is not impaired under the plan.” In
accordance with section 1123(a)(2), Article III of the Plan identifies and
describes each Class of Claims or interests that is not impaired under the Plan.
Specifically, Article III of the Plan specifies that Claims and Equity Interests
in Rotech Class 1, Rotech Class 2, Rotech Class 5, GD Class 1, GD Class 2, GD
Class 5, and GD Class 7 are unimpaired under the Plan.
(c)
Treatment of Impaired Classes

37.    Section 1123(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the Plan “specify
the treatment of any class of claims or interests that is impaired under the
plan.” 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(3). In accordance with section 1123(a)(3), Article
III of the Plan identifies and describes the treatment of any Class of Claims or
interests that is impaired under the Plan. Specifically, Article III of the Plan
identifies Rotech Class 7 as impaired and describes the treatment of the Equity
Interests in such Class.
(d)
Equal Treatment Within Classes

38.    Section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan “provide
the same treatment for each claim or interest of a particular class, unless the
holder of a particular

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

claim or interest agrees to a less favorable treatment of such particular claim
or interest.” 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(4). In accordance with section 1123(a)(4),
under Article III of the Plan, each Allowed Claim and Equity Interest in each
Class will receive the same treatment as all other Allowed Claims and Equity
Interests in such Class, except for those Allowed Claims whose holders have
agreed to less favorable treatment.

(e)
Adequate Means for Implementation of the Plan

39.    Section 1123(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the Plan provide
“adequate means” for its implementation. 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(5). Article IV of
the Plan and various other provisions of the Plan provide for the means by which
the Plan will be implemented, specifically:
•
Section 4.5.1 of the Plan provides for the post-Effective Date corporate
structure, including (i) the continuation of Reorganized Rotech as the parent
holding company of the Reorganized Guarantor Debtors, and (ii) the establishment
of the same organizational structure that existed on the Commencement Date, or
as otherwise directed by the Consenting Noteholders;

•
Section 4.5.2 of the Plan provides for (i) the cancellation of existing common
stock of Rotech, and (ii) the issuance of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock to the
Second Lien Notes Trustee to disburse to holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes
Claims;

•
Section 4.8 of the Plan provides for the cancellation and surrender of certain
instruments and agreements, in accordance with subsection 1123(a)(5)(F) of the
Bankruptcy Code;

•
Section 4.12 of the Plan provides for the Reorganized Debtors to execute,
deliver, and perform the Exit Financing Documents and to obtain the proceeds of
the Exit Financing;

•
Section 7.1 of the Plan provides for the curing of defaults under assumed
executory contracts and unexpired leases, in accordance with subsection
1123(a)(5)(G) of the Bankruptcy Code;

16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•
Section 8.4 of the Plan provides for the amendment of Governance Documents that
will govern the Reorganized Debtors, in accordance with subsection
1123(a)(5)(I); and

•
Section 9.1 of the Plan provides for the vesting of all property of the Debtors’
Estates in the applicable Reorganized Debtors, in accordance with subsection
1123(a)(5)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(f)
Prohibition Against Issuance of Nonvoting Securities

40.    Section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan must
“provide for the inclusion in the charter of the debtor, if the debtor is a
corporation . . . of a provision prohibiting the issuance of nonvoting equity
securities, and providing, as to the several classes of securities possessing
voting power, an appropriate distribution of voting power.” 11 U.S.C. §
1123(a)(6). Accordingly, Section 8.4 of the Plan provides that the Reorganized
Debtors’ Governance Documents shall contain provisions prohibiting the issuance
of non-voting equity securities. Forms of the Reorganized Debtors’ Governance
Documents are included in the Plan Supplement, which Governance Documents
contain provisions prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity securities.

(g)
Selection of Directors and Officers in a Manner Consistent with the Interests of
Creditors and Equity Security Holders and Public Policy

41.    Section 1123(a)(7) requires that a plan’s provisions with respect to the
manner of selection of any director, officer, or trustee, or any other successor
thereto, be “consistent with the interests of creditors and equity security
holders and with public policy.” 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(7). In accordance with
section 1123(a)(7), the Amended Plan Supplement disclosed the identities of the
individuals who are proposed to serve on or after the Effective Date as officers
and directors of the Reorganized Debtors. Section 8.1 of the Plan provides that

17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the New Board and the new boards of each of the Reorganized Guarantor Debtors
will be determined by the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders. The Plan complies
with section 1123(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(h)
Section 1123(a)(8) Does Not Apply to the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases

42.    Section 1123(a)(8) applies to chapter 11 plans involving an individual
debtor. None of the Debtors is an “individual” and, as such, section 1123(a)(8)
is inapplicable.

iv.
Section 1123(b): The Plan Contains Certain Discretionary Provisions

43.    In addition to the requirements of section 1123(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code, section 1123(b) contains discretionary provisions that may be (but are not
required to be) incorporated into a chapter 11 plan. 11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(1)-(6).
The discretionary provisions of the Plan, as described below, are all consistent
with section 1123(b).

(a)
Section 1123(b)(1): Impairment of Claims and Interests

44.    As permitted by section 1123(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, which provides
that a plan may “impair or leave unimpaired any class of claims, secured or
unsecured, or of interests,” see 11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(1), Article III of the Plan
impairs or leaves unimpaired, as the case may be, each Class of Claims.
Specifically, Claims in Rotech Class 1, Rotech Class 2, Rotech Class 5, GD Class
1, GD Class 2, GD Class 5, and GD Class 7 are unimpaired by the Plan.
(b)
Section 1123(b)(2): Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Leases

18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

45.    Section 1123(b)(2) allows a Plan, subject to section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code, to provide for the assumption, assumption and assignment, or
rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases not previously rejected by
the debtor. See 11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(2). In accordance with section 1123(b)(2),
Article VII of the Plan provides that, effective as of the Effective Date, all
Executory Contracts to which any of the Debtors are parties are rejected, except
for an Executory Contract that (a) has previously been assumed or rejected
pursuant to Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (b) is specifically designated
as a contract or lease to be assumed on a schedule of contracts and leases filed
and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing (which shall be in
all respects in form and substance satisfactory to the Consenting Noteholders),
(c) is the subject of a separate (i) assumption motion filed by the Debtors or
(ii) rejection motion filed by the Debtors under section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code before the date of the Confirmation Hearing, or (d) is the subject of a
pending objection regarding assumption, proposed Cure Amount, “adequate
assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code) or other issues related to assumption of the contract or lease
(a “Cure Dispute”).
46.    Article VII of the Plan further provides that all Executory Contracts to
which any of the Debtors, on the one hand, and Medicare, Medicaid, or the
Department of Veterans Affairs, on the other hand, are parties (collectively,
the “Government Contracts”) are assumed as of the Effective Date, pursuant to
and in accordance with the specific terms set forth in Section 7.1 of the Plan.
47.    The Debtors’ decision to assume, assume and assign, assume as modified,
or reject their respective executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to
the terms of the Plan constitutes a sound exercise of their respective business
judgments.

19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)
Section 1123(b)(3)(B): Retention and Enforcement of Claims and Interests

48.    Section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan may
“provide for the retention and enforcement by the debtor, by the trustee or by a
representative of the estate” of certain claims or interests. 11 U.S.C. §
1123(b)(3)(B). In accordance with section 1123(b)(3)(B), Section 6.10 of the
Plan provides that “the Reorganized Debtors shall retain and may enforce, sue
on, settle, or compromise (or decline to do any of the foregoing) all Preserved
Claims without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, subject to the terms of
sections 6.2 and 9.6 [of the Plan], the Confirmation Order, and any contract,
instrument, release, indenture, or other agreement entered into in connection
[with the Plan]” and that “[t]he Reorganized Debtors or their successor(s) may
pursue such Preserved Claims, as appropriate, in accordance with the best
interests of the Reorganized Debtors or their successor(s) who hold such
rights.”
(d)
Section 1123(b)(5): Modification of the Rights of Holders of Claims

49.    Section 1123(b)(5) states that a plan may “modify the rights of holders
of secured claims . . . or holders of unsecured claims, or leave unaffected the
rights of holders of any class of claims.” 11 U.S.C. § 1123(b)(5). In accordance
with section 1123(b)(5), Article III of the Plan provides that the legal,
equitable, and contractual rights of holders of Claims in Rotech Class 1, Rotech
Class 2, Rotech Class 5, GD Class 1, GD Class 2, GD Class 5, and GD Class 7 will
remain unimpaired. Article III of the Plan further provides that the rights of
holders of Equity Interests in Rotech Class 7 are impaired.

20

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(e)
Section 1123(b)(6): Other Provisions Not Inconsistent with Applicable Provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code

50.    In accordance with section 1123(b)(6), the Plan contains additional
provisions that are not inconsistent with other applicable provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, as set forth below.
Subject Matter Jurisdiction
51.    Section 11.1 of the Plan provides that the Bankruptcy Court will retain
subject matter jurisdiction over any matter arising under the Bankruptcy Code,
arising in or related to the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases or the Plan, or that
relates to a list of additional matters enumerated therein. This is consistent
with applicable law. Accordingly, the continuing jurisdiction of the Court is
consistent with section 1123(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Exemption from Transfer Taxes
52.    Section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that “[t]he issuance,
transfer or exchange of a security, or the making or delivery of an instrument
of transfer under a plan confirmed under section 1129 of this title, may not be
taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax or similar tax.” 11 U.S.C. § 1146(a).
Section 13.3 of the Plan provides that, pursuant to section 1146(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of notes, equity interests
or other plan securities pursuant to the Plan or any of the Plan Documents, the
creation of any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security interest, the making
or assignment of any lease or sublease, or the making, delivery, filing, or
recording of any deed or other instrument of transfer under, in furtherance of,
or in connection with the Plan or any of the Plan Documents (including, for this
purpose in connection with the organization documents relating to the
Reorganized Debtors, the Exit Financing, and the other documents relating to the
transactions

21

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

described in the Plan) shall not be subject to any stamp, real estate transfer,
mortgage recording, Uniform Commercial Code filing or recording tax, or other
similar tax or government assessment. The exemption from transfer taxes under
the Plan is consistent with section 1123(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.
Exculpations, Releases, and Injunctions
53.    Sections 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, and 9.8 of the Plan contain exculpations
(the “Exculpations”), Releases (as defined below), and injunctions (the
“Injunctions”) in favor of certain Released Parties, which include all Entities
who are or were at any time on or after the Commencement Date, and whether or
not such Entity currently retains such capacity or position, (i) Debtors; (ii)
directors, officers, members of management, and other employees of the Debtors,
respectively; (iii) the Term Lender; (iv) the Term Agent; (v) the DIP Agents;
(vi) the DIP Lenders; (vii) the First Lien Noteholders; (viii) the Consenting
Second Lien Noteholders; (ix) each Second Lien Noteholder (other than a Second
Lien Noteholder that is a Consenting Second Lien Noteholder) who votes to accept
the Plan; (x) the Trustees; (xi) the Creditors’ Committee and its members; and
(xii) attorneys, advisors, consultants, and other professionals, to the extent
such parties are or were representing any of the Entities identified in (i)
through (xi) above.
54.    Section 9.6 of the Plan provides for certain releases (the “Debtor
Releases”) by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the Estates of the
Released Parties on the terms specified therein. The granting of the Debtor
Releases constitutes a sound exercise of business judgment by the Debtors. The
Debtor Releases carve out claims resulting from gross negligence, willful
misconduct, intentional fraud, or criminal conduct, in each case as determined
by Final Order. The Released Parties have all made contributions to the Plan,
and no evidence was propounded showing that Rotech or its estate has any
meritorious claims against the

22

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Released Parties. The Releases and Exculpations will spare the reorganized
estates the management time and cost of responding to discovery and potential
liability for indemnity.
55.    Section 9.7 of the Plan provides for certain releases (the “Third Party
Releases,” and together with the Debtor Releases, the “Releases”) by all
claimholders and holders of Equity Interests of the Debtors who either voted in
favor of, or is conclusively presumed to have accepted, the Plan in favor of the
Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and the other Released Parties on the terms as
specified therein. The Third Party Releases carve out claims resulting from
intentional fraud or criminal conduct, in each case, as determined by Final
Order. This Court’s factual findings with respect to the Plan’s compliance with
11 U.S.C. §§ 1129(a)(1)-(3) is consistent with approval of the Third Party
Releases.
56.    The Released Parties who are receiving the benefit of the Releases have
made material contributions to the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases, which have
translated into recoveries afforded to creditors under the Plan and thus are
indispensable to the success of the Debtors’ reorganization. No viable claims
have been identified to date with respect to the Released Parties. In each of
the major cases where Third Circuit courts have refused to grant third party
releases, such releases would have foreclosed claims that were actually pending,
asserted, and/or identified and not settled, a circumstance clearly not present
in these Chapter 11 Cases.
57.    The Releases serve two simple but valuable functions: (i) incentivizing
the applicable Released Parties to support, and undertake actions that support
confirmation of the Plan without the uncertainty of future baseless lawsuits,
and (ii) facilitating the Reorganized Debtors’ fresh start post emergence from
the Chapter 11 Cases.

23

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

58.    Unless otherwise provided in this Confirmation Order, Section 9.5 of the
Plan provides for an injunction against all holders of Claims from undertaking
any action to recover and/or collect from the Debtors and Released Parties on
account of their Claims and liabilities, and that are released or discharged
pursuant to the Plan. The Injunction is necessary to preserve and enforce the
Releases and Exculpations, and is sufficiently narrowly tailored to achieve that
purpose.
59.    This Court has subject matter jurisdiction under sections 1334(a) of
title 28 of the United States Code to approve each of the Exculpations,
Releases, and Injunctions. Further, section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code
permits issuance of the Injunctions and approval of the Exculpations and
Releases. Based upon the record of the Chapter 11 Cases and the evidence
proffered, adduced, and/or presented at the Confirmation Hearing, and
consideration of the applicable law, the Exculpations, Releases, and
Injunctions: (i) are critical and indispensable to confirmation and the success
of the reorganization because, among other reasons, they are key components of
the negotiations surrounding the Plan; (ii) confer material benefits on, and are
in the best interest of, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, and their
respective Estates and creditors; (iii) satisfy the Bankruptcy Code and
applicable jurisprudence; and (iv) are fair and equitable in the circumstances
of these Chapter 11 Cases. The Exculpations, Releases, and Injunctions are fully
consistent with the Bankruptcy Code and applicable jurisprudence, and, as the
Debtors submit and the Court finds, are warranted by the facts of the Debtors’
chapter 11 cases.
Discharge
60.    Section 9.3 of the Plan provides for the discharge of all Claims and
Equity Interests to the fullest extent provided by section 1141 of the
Bankruptcy Code. With respect to

24

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the United States of America, nothing in the Plan or this Confirmation Order
shall be construed to enlarge the discharge beyond what is provided in section
1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code and 18 U.S.C. § 3613.
v.
Section 1123(c) is Inapplicable to the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases

61.    Section 1123(c) applies to chapter 11 plans involving an individual
debtor. None of the Debtors is an “individual” and, as such, section 1123(c) is
inapplicable.
vi.
Section 1123(d): Cure of Defaults

62.    Section 1123(d) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that if a plan proposes
to cure a default, the amount necessary to cure the default shall be determined
“in accordance with the underlying agreement and applicable non-bankruptcy law.”
In accordance with section 1123(d), Section 7.2 of the Plan provides for the
satisfaction of cure amounts associated with each executory contract and
unexpired leases to be assumed pursuant to the Plan in accordance with section
365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. All cure amounts will be determined in
accordance with the underlying agreements and applicable nonbankruptcy law, or
by agreement of the parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Plan, the Plan Supplement, or this Confirmation Order, the Cure Amount for
assumption of the Government Contracts shall be determined pursuant to and in
accordance with the specific terms set forth in Section 7.1 of the Plan.

2.
Section 1129(a)(2): Compliance with Applicable Provisions of the Bankruptcy Code

63.    Section 1129(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the plan
proponent “compl[y] with the applicable provisions of [the Bankruptcy Code].” 11
U.S.C.

25

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

§ 1129(a)(2). As set forth below, the Debtors have complied with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including the provisions of sections 1125 and
1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, regarding disclosure and solicitation of the Plan.

i.
Section 1125: Solicitation, Voting, and Tabulation

64.    Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code provides in pertinent part that:

(b)    An acceptance or rejection of a plan may not be solicited after the
commencement of the case under [the Bankruptcy Code] from a holder of a claim or
interest with respect to such claim or interest, unless, at the time of or
before such solicitation, there is transmitted to such holder the plan or a
summary or the plan, and a written disclosure statement approved, after notice
and a hearing, by the court as containing adequate information . . . .
(c)    The same disclosure statement shall be transmitted to each holder of a
claim or interest of a particular class, but there may be transmitted different
disclosure statements, differing in amount, detail, or kind of information, as
between classes.
11 U.S.C. § 1125.
65.    On June 14, 2013, after notice and a hearing and by entry of the
Disclosure Statement Order, this Court approved the Disclosure Statement
pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code as containing “adequate
information” of a kind and in sufficient detail to enable hypothetical,
reasonable investors typical of the Debtors’ creditors to make an informed
judgment whether to accept or reject the Plan. Pursuant to the Disclosure
Statement Order, the Court also approved, among other things: (i) all materials
to be included in the Solicitation Packages; (ii) the forms of ballots; (iii)
the procedures for voting and for tabulation of votes to accept or reject the
Plan; and (iv) the manner of service of the Solicitation Packages.

26

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

66.    Thereafter, in accordance with the Disclosure Statement Order, the
Debtors, by and through Epiq, the Debtors’ Balloting Agent, distributed
Solicitation Packages to all Claim holders entitled to vote, which contained:
(i) the Disclosure Statement (including the Plan as an exhibit); (ii) the
Disclosure Statement Order (without the exhibits thereto); (iii) the notice
setting forth the time, date, and place of the Confirmation Hearing (the
“Confirmation Hearing Notice”); (iv) the Creditors’ Committee’s letter in
support of the Plan; and (v) Ballots to accept or reject the Plan. The Debtors
did not solicit the acceptance or rejection of the Plan from any holder of
Claims and Equity Interests prior to the transmission of the Solicitation
Packages. The Voting Declaration reflects that Epiq solicited and tabulated
votes in accordance with the Disclosure Statement Order.
67.    Additionally, as required by the Disclosure Statement Order, the Debtors
published the Confirmation Hearing Notice once in each of The Wall Street
Journal (National Edition) and USA Today (National Edition), on a date not less
than 25 or more than 32 calendar days prior to the date of the Confirmation
Hearing.
68.    Votes with respect to the Plan were solicited in good faith and in a
manner consistent with the Bankruptcy Code, including section 1125(e), the
Bankruptcy Rules, and the Disclosure Statement Order. The affidavits and
certifications regarding the publication of notice of the Confirmation Hearing
in various publications reflect the Debtors’ compliance with the Disclosure
Statement Order.
ii.
Section 1126: Requirements for Acceptance of a Chapter 11 Plan

69.    Under section 1126, only holders of allowed claims and allowed equity
interests in impaired classes that will receive or retain property under a plan
on account of such

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

claims or equity interests may vote to accept or reject a plan. See 11 U.S.C. §§
1126(a), (f), and (g).
70.    As to impaired Classes entitled to vote to accept or reject a plan,
sections 1126(c) and 1126(d) of the Bankruptcy Code specify the requirements for
acceptance of a plan by classes of claims and classes of equity interests,
respectively:

(c)    A class of claims has accepted a plan if such plan has been accepted by
creditors, other than any entity designated under subsection (e) of this
section, that hold at least two-thirds in amount and more-than one-half in
number of the allowed claims of such class held by creditors, other than any
entity designated under section (e) of this section, that have accepted or
rejected the plan.
(d)    A class of interests has accepted the plan if such plan has been accepted
by holders of such interest, other than any entity designated under subsection
(e) of this section, that hold at least two-thirds in amount of the allowed
interests of such class held by holders of such interests, other than any entity
designated under subsection (e) of this section, that have accepted or rejected
such plan.
11 U.S.C. §§ 1126(c), (d).
71.    The Debtors solicited votes from the holders of all Allowed Claims in
each Class of impaired Claims entitled to vote on the Plan. Specifically, votes
were solicited from the holders of Claims in Rotech Class 3, Rotech Class 4,
Rotech Class 5.1, GD Class 3, GD Class 4, and GD Class 5.1. See Voting Decl. at
¶¶ 4 & 7.
72.    In accordance with section 1126(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, holders of
Claims in the Unimpaired Classes are conclusively presumed to have accepted the
Plan and were not entitled to vote on the Plan. Holders of Claims in the
non-voting Impaired Classes will not receive any distribution under the Plan,
are conclusively deemed to reject the Plan pursuant to section 1126(g) of the
Bankruptcy Code and were not entitled to vote on the Plan. In accordance

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

with the Disclosure Statement Order, however, the Debtors distributed a notice
of non-voting status to each holder of Claims or Equity Interests in the
Non-Voting Classes other than to holders of Debtor Intercompany Claims in Rotech
Class 6 and GD Class 6.
73.    Rotech Class 3, Rotech Class 4, Rotech Class 5.1, GD Class 3, GD Class 4,
and GD Class 5.1, with the exception of LAMS Class 5.1, voted to accept the Plan
in the numbers and amounts required under section 1126(c) and 1129(d) of the
Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, the requirements for acceptance of a plan set
forth in section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied as to all the
Debtors’ Plans with the exception of the Rotech Plan (in light of the fact that
Rotech Class 7 is Impaired, will not receive or retain any property under the
Plan, and is deemed to reject the Plan) and LAMS’ Plan (the “LAMS Plan”). The
Debtors propose to confirm the Rotech Plan and LAMS Plan pursuant to Bankruptcy
Code sections 1129(a)(10) and 1129(b).
74.    The Debtors have complied with section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code.

3.
Section 1129(a)(3): Proposal of the Plan in Good Faith and Not by Any Means
Forbidden by Law

75.    Section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan be
“proposed in good faith and not by any means forbidden by law.” 11 U.S.C. §
1129(a)(3). The Plan promotes the rehabilitative objective and purposes of the
Bankruptcy Code and satisfies the requirements of section 1129(a)(3) of the
Bankruptcy Code. Based on the record before the Court in this Chapter 11 Case,
(i) the Debtors are deemed to have solicited acceptances of the Plan in good
faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code,
including, without limitation, sections 1125(c) and (e) of the Bankruptcy Code,
and any

29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

applicable non-bankruptcy law, rule, or regulation governing the adequacy of
disclosure in connection with such solicitation, and (ii) the Debtors and all of
its respective representatives shall be deemed to have participated in good
faith and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code in
the solicitation of the Plan and are entitled to the protections afforded by
section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

4.
Section 1129(a)(4): Payments Made by the Debtors for Services or in Respect of
Costs and Expenses are Subject to Court Approval

76.    Section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that certain
professional fees and expenses paid by a plan proponent, debtor, or person
receiving distributions of property under a plan, be subject to approval by the
Court as reasonable. See 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(4).
77.    Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Plan provide for the payment of various
Administrative Expense Claims, including Claims for services rendered by
professionals, which are subject to Bankruptcy Court approval and the standards
of the Bankruptcy Code. Section 11.1(j) of the Plan provides the Bankruptcy
Court will retain jurisdiction after the Effective Date to hear and determine
all applications for allowance of compensation or reimbursement of expenses of
professionals and any other fees and expenses authorized to be paid or
reimbursed under the Bankruptcy Code or the Plan.
78.    In accordance with section 1129(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, no payment
for services or costs and expenses in or in connection with the Chapter 11
Cases, or in connection with the Plan and incidental to the Chapter 11 Cases,
including Claims for

30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

professional fees, has been or will be made other than payments that have been
authorized by order of the Bankruptcy Court.

5.
Section 1129(a)(5): Disclosure of Necessary Information Regarding Directors,
Officers, and Insiders

79.    Section 1129(a)(5)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code requires, prior to the
Confirmation Hearing, a plan proponent to disclose the identity of the proposed
officers and directors of the reorganized debtors and that the appointment or
continuance of such officers and directors be consistent with the interests of
creditors and equity security holders and with public policy. Section
1129(a)(5)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code further requires a plan proponent to
disclose the identity of an “insider” (as defined by 11 U.S.C. § 101(31)) to be
employed or retained by the reorganized debtor and the nature of any
compensation for such insider. The Debtors have provided requisite disclosures
in the Amended Plan Supplement regarding the New Board and boards of directors
for each of the Reorganized Guarantor Debtors, as required by section
1129(a)(5)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, and have also disclosed the nature of
compensation of insiders who will be employed or retained by the Reorganized
Debtors, as required by section 1129(a)(5)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Court
determines the appointment of the proposed directors and officers as set forth
in Schedule 8.1 of the Amended Plan Supplement is consistent with the interests
of the holders of Claims and interests and with public policy. The Plan,
therefore, satisfies the requirements of section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

6.
Section 1129(a)(6): The Plan Does Not Contain Any Rate Changes Subject to the
Jurisdiction of Any Governmental Regulatory Commissions

31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

80.    Section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that any regulatory
commission having jurisdiction over the rates charged by a reorganized debtor in
the operation of its businesses approve any rate change provided for in the
Plan. See 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(6). Because the Debtors’ businesses do not involve
rates over which any regulatory commission has or will have jurisdiction after
confirmation, section 1129(a)(6) is inapplicable.

7.
Section 1129(a)(7): Best Interests of Holders of Claims and Interests

81.    Section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that each holder of a
claim or interest in each impaired class either (i) accepts the plan or (ii)
receives or retains under the plan property that, as of the effective date, is
valued “not less than the amount that such holder would so receive or retain if
the debtor were liquidated under chapter 7.” 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(7)(A). This
section is often referred to as the “best interests” or “liquidation” test.
Under the best interests test, the court must find that each creditor will
receive or retain value that is not less than the amount he would receive if the
debtor were liquidated. As section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code makes
clear, the liquidation analysis applies only to the extent there are rejecting
impaired claims or equity interests in any class – the test does not apply as to
any class of claims or interest that unanimously accepts the plan.
82.    The most contentious issue in the Rotech chapter 11 case was whether the
Rotech estates were solvent thereby having some value distributable to Rotech
shareholders. Rotech submitted the valuation of Barclays providing the estates
are worth between $450 million and $525 million, and the statutory creditors’
committee submitted the valuation of Grant Thornton providing the estates are
worth between $450 million and $540 million. The Rotech estates’ liabilities
aggregate $647.5 million. The Equity Committee’s valuation expert, Berenson,

32

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

submitted a valuation providing the estates are worth between $509 million and
$801 million. All three valuation reports were submitted to the Court by Rotech
when it made its summary judgment motion for an order finding the estates
insolvent on the ground the Equity Committee’s valuation providing the value may
be more or less than $647.5 million does not, at face value, prove the value is
more than $647.5 million.
83.    The Court finds the Rotech estates are insolvent because they are worth
materially less than $647.5 million.
84.    Comparing the Plan’s projected recoveries with the Liquidation Analysis
contained in Exhibit G to the Disclosure Statement (the “Liquidation Analysis”)
demonstrates that the value that would be realized by all holders of all Claims
and Equity Interests in a disposition of the Debtors’ assets in a hypothetical
chapter 7 liquidation is less than or equal to the projected recoveries to such
holders under the Plan. Further, evidence adduced at the Confirmation Hearing is
credible and supports the Liquidation Analysis and its conclusions.

8.
Section 1129(a)(8): Acceptance of the Plan by Impaired Classes

85.    Section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that each class of
impaired claims or interests either accept the Plan or not be impaired under the
plan, subject to the exceptions identified in section 1129(b). See 11 U.S.C.§§
1129(a)(8), 1129(b).
86.    Under the Plan, each of Rotech Class 1, Rotech Class 2, Rotech Class 5,
GD Class 1, GD Class 2, GD Class 5, and GD Class 7 is unimpaired. The Voting
Declaration demonstrates that Rotech Class 3, Rotech Class 4, Rotech Class 5.1,
GD Class 3, GD Class 4, and GD Class 5.1, with the exception of LAMS Class 5.1,
all of which are Impaired, voted to accept the Plan with the requisite
numerosity and dollar amounts required by section 1126(c) of

33

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the Bankruptcy Code. Rotech Class 7 is deemed to reject the Plan because the
Equity Interests in such Class receive nothing under the Plan. LAMS Class 5.1
voted to reject the Plan.
87.    As a result, the Rotech Plan and the LAMS Plan do not satisfy
section 1129(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code because one Class at each Debtor did
not vote to accept such Plans. The Rotech Plan and the LAMS Plan are
confirmable, however, because each such Plan satisfies the requirements of
sections 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code (there is at least one accepting
Class of impaired Claims without counting the votes of insiders) and 1129(b) of
the Bankruptcy Code (the “no unfair discrimination” and “fair and equitable”
tests have been satisfied as to Rotech Class 7 and LAMS Class 5.1). Accordingly,
the Rotech Plan and the LAMS Plan overcome the requirement of section 1129(a)(8)
by satisfying the requirements of section 1129(a)(10) and 1129(b).

9.
Section 1129(a)(9): Treatment of Claims Entitled to Priority Pursuant to Section
507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code

88.    Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that persons holding
claims entitled to priority treatment under section 507(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code receive specified cash payments under a plan. See 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9).
89.    In accordance with sections 1129(a)(9)(A) and (B), Section 2.1 of the
Plan provides that all Allowed Administrative Expense Claims will be paid in
full, in Cash, on the later of the Effective Date and the date on which an
Administrative Expense Claim is Allowed, or as soon as practicable thereafter.
Allowed Administrative Expense Claims representing liabilities incurred in the
ordinary course of business by the Reorganized Debtors will be paid in full and
performed by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of
business in

34

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of any agreements
governing, instruments evidencing, or other documents relating to, such
transactions.
90.    In accordance with section 1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code,
Section 2.3 of the Plan provides that each holder of an Allowed Priority Tax
Claim shall receive, at the sole option of the applicable Debtor and in full and
complete satisfaction of any and all liability attributable to that Priority Tax
Claim, on the latest of (i) the Effective Date, (ii) the date on which the
Priority Tax Claim becomes an Allowed Priority Tax Claim, and (iii) the date
such Allowed Priority Tax Claim is payable under applicable non-bankruptcy law,
or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, Cash in an amount equal to
such Allowed Priority Tax Claim; provided, further, that no holder of an Allowed
Priority Tax Claim shall be entitled to any payments on account of any
pre-Effective Date interest accrued on or penalty arising after the Commencement
Date with respect of or in connection with such Allowed Priority Tax Claim.

10.
Section 1129(a)(10): Acceptance by at Least One Class of Impaired, Non‑Insider
Claims

91.    Section 1129(a)(10) requires the affirmative acceptance of a plan by at
least one class of impaired claims, “determined without including any acceptance
of the plan by any insider.” 11 U.S.C. §1129(a)(10).
92.    The Voting Declaration shows that, with the exception of LAMS Class 5.1,
all impaired Classes of Claims have accepted the Plan, including Rotech Class 3
and GD Class 3, without tabulating votes of insiders. See Voting Decl. at Ex. A.
Accordingly, the requirement of section 1129(a)(10) is satisfied.

11.
Section 1129(a)(11): Feasibility of the Plan

35

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

93.    Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that, as a condition
precedent to confirmation, the Court find the Plan is feasible. See 11 U.S.C. §
1129(a)(11). Specifically, the Court must determine that:

Confirmation of the plan is not likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the
need for further financial reorganization, of the debtor or any successor to the
debtor under the plan, unless such liquidation or reorganization is proposed in
the plan.
11 U.S.C.§ 1129(a)(11). The feasibility test set forth in section 1129(a)(11)
requires the Court determine whether the Plan is feasible and has a reasonable
likelihood of success.
94.    The Court concludes the Debtors have demonstrated their (and the
Reorganized Debtors’) ability to meet their obligations under the Plan following
confirmation. The detailed projections of the financial performance for each of
the Reorganized Debtors, attached to the Disclosure Statement as Exhibit F (the
“Financial Projections”), establish that the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors
will have sufficient cash to meet all of their obligations under the Plan on the
Effective Date and thereafter. Moreover, on the Effective Date, the Reorganized
Debtors will enter into an exit facility comprised of (i) first lien exit
financing facilities, including (a) a $25 million revolving facility, (b) a $100
million tranche A term loan facility, and (c) a $75 million tranche B term loan
facility; and (ii) a second lien credit facility in the form of a $157.5 million
term loan (collectively, the “Exit Facilities”). As demonstrated by the
Financial Projections and established by evidence adduced at the Confirmation
Hearing, and the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to borrow under the Exit
Facilities, confirmation of the Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation
or the need for further financial reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors or
any successor to the Reorganized Debtors.

36

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

95.    Cash is available to make all Effective Date Cash payments under the
Plan. Further, the Financial Projections show that, after the Effective Date,
the Reorganized Debtors will continue to generate sufficient cash to adequately
maintain their operations.
96.    Based upon information contained in the Disclosure Statement, the
Financial Projections, the Exit Facilities, and the other evidence admitted at
the Confirmation Hearing, after making all payments required pursuant to the
Plan, the Reorganized Debtors will be viable entities, and confirmation of the
Plan is not likely to be followed by liquidation or the need for further
financial reorganization of the Reorganized Debtors, thereby satisfying
section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code. Based on this evidence, the Plan is
feasible within the meaning of section 1129(a)(11).

12.
Section 1129(a)(12): Payment of Statutory Fees

97.    Section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code requires the payment of “[a]ll
fees payable under section 1930 [of title 28 of the United States Code], as
determined by the court at the hearing on confirmation of the plan.” 11 U.S.C. §
1129(a)(12). In accordance with sections 507 and 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy
Code, Section 13.5 of the Plan provides that all such fees and charges, to the
extent not previously paid, will be paid on or before the Effective Date, as
determined by the Court at the Confirmation Hearing. Thus, the Plan satisfies
the requirements of section 1129(a)(12) of the Bankruptcy Code.

13.
Section 1129(a)(13): Retiree Benefits

98.    Section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a plan provide
for retiree benefits at levels established pursuant to section 1114 of the
Bankruptcy Code. See

37

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(13). Section 7.6 of the Plan provides that, except to the
extent previously assumed or rejected by an order of the Bankruptcy Court
entered on or before the Effective Date, all employee compensation and benefit
plans entered into before or after the Commencement Date and not since
terminated shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as if they were,
Executory Contracts assumed pursuant to the Plan. Section 7.6 of the Plan
further provides that the Debtors’ obligations under such plans and programs
shall survive confirmation of the Plan, except for (a) Executory Contracts or
employee benefit plans specifically rejected pursuant to the Plan (to the extent
such rejection does not violate sections 1114 and 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy
Code), and (b) such Executory Contracts or employee benefit plans as have
previously been rejected, are the subject of a motion to reject as of the
Effective Date, or have been specifically waived by the beneficiaries of any
employee benefit plan or contract. Therefore, the plain terms of Section 7.6 of
the Plan satisfy the requirement of section 1129(a)(13).
14.
Sections 1129(a)(14), 1129(a)(15), and 1129(a)(16) Do Not Apply to the Debtors’
Chapter 11 Cases

99.    Section 1129(a)(14) concerns the payment of domestic support obligations.
None of the Debtors are subject to any domestic support obligations, and,
therefore, the requirements of section 1129(a)(14) of the Bankruptcy Code do not
apply.
100.    Section 1129(a)(15) of the Bankruptcy Code applies only in cases in
which the debtor is an “individual” (as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy
Code). None of the Debtors are “individuals,” and, accordingly, section
1129(a)(15) is inapplicable.

38

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

101.    Section 1129(a)(16) applies to transfers of property by a corporation or
trust that is not a moneyed, business, or commercial corporation, and,
accordingly, section 1129(a)(16) is inapplicable.

15.
Section 1129(b): Cram Down Requirements

102.    Section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that, if certain
requirements are met, a plan shall be confirmed notwithstanding that section
1129(a)(8) is not satisfied with respect to one or more classes. See 11 U.S.C. §
1129(b)(1). In particular, section 1129(b)(1) requires that, to confirm a plan
that has not been accepted by all impaired Classes, the plan proponent must show
that the plan “does not discriminate unfairly” and is “fair and equitable” with
respect to the non-accepting impaired Classes. The plan proponent bears the
burden of proof by a preponderance of the evidence. As discussed above, holders
of Equity Interests in Rotech Class 7 and holders of Claims in LAMS Class 5.1
did not vote to accept the Plan. However, the Debtors have satisfied section
1129(b) with respect to such Classes.

i.
No Unfair Discrimination

103.    The section 1129(b)(1) “unfair discrimination” standard does not
prohibit all types of discrimination among holders of impaired, dissenting
classes; instead, it only prohibits unfair discrimination. A plan unfairly
discriminates in violation of section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code only if
classes comprising similarly situated claims or interests receive treatment
under the plan that is not equivalent, and there is no reasonable basis for the
disparate treatment, i.e., the unfair discrimination test is a horizontal test;
it measures different plan treatment across the line of classes of claims of
similar priority.

39

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

104.    In accordance with section 1129(b)(1), the Rotech Plan does not
discriminate unfairly against Rotech Class 7. The treatment of Equity Interests
in this Class is proper because all similarly situated Equity Interests are
treated similarly. In particular, because there are no Equity Interests in the
Rotech Plan similar to the Equity Interests in Rotech Class 7, the treatment of
the Equity Interests in Rotech Class 7 does not discriminate against such Class.
105.    Additionally, in accordance with section 1129(b)(1), the LAMS Plan does
not discriminate unfairly against LAMS Class 5.1. The treatment of Claims in
this Class is proper because all similarly situated Claims (General Unsecured
Claims that are not being bound by the terms of a New Rotech Supplier Credit
Agreement) are treated similarly. LAMS Class 5.1 is the only Class in the LAMS
Plan comprised of general unsecured Claims that are not providing the
Reorganized Debtors with trade credit pursuant to the terms of a New Rotech
Supplier Credit Agreement following the Effective Date, and thus is not being
unfairly discriminated against under the LAMS Plan.
ii.
The Plan is Fair and Equitable with Respect to Each Impaired Class of Claims or
Interests that Has Not Accepted the Plan

106.    A plan must adhere to the “absolute priority” rule, i.e., the fair and
equitable requirement is a vertical test; it protects rejecting Classes as
against junior classes.
107.    Section 1129(b)(2)(B) provides in pertinent part that a plan is fair and
equitable with respect to a rejecting class of unsecured claims if the plan
provides that the rejecting class be paid in full or that “the holder of any
claim or interest that is junior to the claims of such class will not receive or
retain under the plan on account of such junior claim or interest any property.”
11 U.S.C. § 1129(b)(2)(B)(ii). The “fair and equitable” rule is satisfied as to
holders of Claims in LAMS Class 5.1 because none of the holders of any Claims or
Equity

40

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interests junior to LAMS Class 5.1 will “receive or retain under the plan on
account of such junior claim or interest any property.” Id.
108.    Section 1129(b)(2)(C) provides that a plan is fair and equitable with
respect to a rejecting class of interests if the plan provides that “the holder
of any interest that is junior to the interests of such class will not receive
or retain under the plan on account of such junior interest any property.” 11
U.S.C. § 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii). The “fair and equitable” test is satisfied as to the
Equity Interests in Rotech Class 7 because, as there are no holders of Equity
Interests junior to Rotech Class 7, no such holders will “receive or retain
under the plan on account of such junior claim or interest any property.” 11
U.S.C. § 1129(b)(2)(C)(ii).
109.    Accordingly, the Rotech Plan and the LAMS Plan satisfy the fair and
equitable test set forth in Bankruptcy Code section 1129(b) with respect to
Rotech Class 7 and LAMS Class 5.1, respectively, and are confirmable over the
rejection of such impaired Classes.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED:
1.
Jurisdiction and Venue

110.    The Court has subject matter jurisdiction to confirm the Plan pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1334.
111.    Venue of the Chapter 11 Cases is proper in the District of Delaware
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.
112.    Confirmation of the Plan is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 157(b)(2)(L).
2.
Confirmation of the Plan

A.
Confirmation

41

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

113.    The Plan is hereby CONFIRMED.

B.
Revocation, Withdrawal, or Non-Consummation

114.    In the event any Plan for any of the Debtor entities does not become
effective for any reason whatsoever, then that Plan shall be deemed null and
void, and the parties shall be returned to the position they would have held had
the Confirmation Order for such Plan not been entered, and nothing in such Plan,
the Disclosure Statement, any of the Plan Documents, or any pleading filed or
statement made before this Court with respect to such Plan or the Plan Documents
shall be deemed to constitute an admission or waiver of any sort or in any way
limit, impair, or alter the rights of any Entity.

C.
Conditions to the Effective Date and Substantial Consummation of the Plan

115.    Nothing in this Confirmation Order shall in any way affect the
provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Plan, which establish (i) the
conditions precedent to the Effective Date of the Plan and (ii) the
circumstances under which each of the conditions precedent in Section 10.1 may
be waived. If a condition to the occurrence of the Effective Date set forth in
Section 10.1 of the Plan cannot be satisfied, and the occurrence of such
condition is not waived in writing by the parties as set forth in Section 10.2
of the Plan, then the Plan shall be of no force and effect. Upon the
satisfaction or waiver of the conditions contained in Section 10.1 of the Plan
and the making of Distributions required to be made under the Plan on the
Effective Date, the Effective Date and the substantial consummation of the Plan,
within the meaning sections 1101 and 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be
deemed to have occurred without further order of this Court.

42

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D.
Effects of Confirmation

116.    From and after the Effective Date, the Plan shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Debtors, the holders of Claims and Equity Interests,
and their respective successors and assigns, including, without limitation, the
Reorganized Debtors.

3.
Approval, Modification, and Execution of Plan Documents

117.    The Plan Supplement, the Amended Plan Supplement, the Second Amended
Plan Supplement, and all exhibits and schedules thereto, substantially in the
form as they exist at the time of the entry of this Confirmation Order,
including, without limitation, the Plan Documents, are approved in all respects.

4.
Claims Bar Dates and Other Claims Matters

A.
Bar Date for Administrative Expense Claims

118.    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in paragraph 119 below,
(i) any and all requests for payment or proofs of Administrative Expense Claims
must be filed and served on the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable,
at the addresses set forth in Section 13.14 of the Plan, no later than (a) three
(3) days prior to the Confirmation Hearing for Administrative Expense Claims
(other than trade vendor Claims for goods and services sold to the Debtors in
the ordinary course of business and Professional Claims) arising during the
period commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing through and including
the date that is seven (7) days prior to the date for the Confirmation Hearing,
and (b) three (3) days after the Effective Date for Administrative Expense
Claims (other than trade vendor Claims for goods and services sold to the
Debtors and Professional Claims) arising during the period commencing after

43

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the date that is seven (7) days prior to the date for the Confirmation Hearing
(the “Administrative Bar Date”); and (ii) if no such request is timely filed and
served, such Administrative Expense Claim shall be forever barred and shall not
be enforceable against any of the Debtors and their Estates or any of the
Reorganized Debtors. Unless an objection to an Administrative Expense Claim is
filed and served on the claimant no later than sixty (60) days after the
applicable Administrative Bar Date, which date for filing and serving an
objection may be extended by application to the Bankruptcy Court, such
Administrative Expense Claim shall be deemed Allowed in the amount requested. If
an objection is filed to an Administrative Expense Claim, the Bankruptcy Court
shall determine the Allowed amount of such Administrative Expense Claim;
provided, however, that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable,
and the applicant may resolve such objection by stipulation, without further
action of the Bankruptcy Court. For the avoidance of doubt, any Claims for
adequate protection payments set forth in the Bankruptcy Court order authorizing
the Debtors’ entry into the DIP Credit Agreement shall be exempt from the
Administrative Bar Date without the filing of any request for payment or proof
of Administrative Expense Claim.
119.    To the extent that an Administrative Expense Claim is Allowed against
any Debtor, there shall be only a single recovery on account of such Allowed
Claim; provided, however, that an Entity holding an Allowed Administrative
Expense Claim against more than one Debtor as co-obligors on such Claim may
recover distributions from any one or more of such Debtors until such Entity has
received payment in full on such Allowed Administrative Expense Claim.
B.
Bar Date for Professional Fee Claims

C.
Bar Date for Rejection Damages Claims and Rejection Objections

121.    If the rejection of an Executory Contract by the Debtors pursuant to the
Plan results in damages to the other party or parties to such contract or lease,
a Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a timely filed proof of
Claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective properties or interests in
property as agents, successors, or assigns, unless a proof of Claim is filed
with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon counsel for the Debtors and the
Reorganized Debtors no later than thirty (30) days after (i) the date of entry
of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejection, or (ii) the date
of the filing of a notice by the Debtors after the

45

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Effective Date indicating such rejection in accordance with Section 7.2 of the
Plan (the “Contract Rejection Bar Date”).
122.    If any non-debtor counterparty objects to the rejection of an executory
contract or unexpired lease on any other basis, such objection must be filed
with the Court and served on the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, at the
addresses in Section 13.14 of the Plan, so as to be received by the Debtors or
Reorganized Debtors on or before the Contract Rejection Bar Date. Nothing herein
shall prejudice the rights of the non-debtor party or the Debtors in respect of
any assertion that a rejected contract was executory, was terminated prior to
rejection or the nature or calculation of any damages with respect thereto.

D.
Assumed Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease Provisions and Related Procedures

123.    Any Executory Contract set forth in Schedule 7.1 of the Plan Supplement
or Schedule 7.1 of the Amended Plan Supplement is hereby deemed to have been
assumed by the Debtors, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.1 of the Plan.
The 2013 Corporate Incentive Performance Plan (the “CIPP”) and each of the
Participation Agreements dated March 2013 entered into pursuant to the CIPP
(collectively, the “CIPP Participation Agreements”) are hereby deemed to have
been assumed by the Debtors (i) without giving effect to any modifications to
the CIPP between the date of its initial enactment and the Effective Date and
(ii) only on (and not prior to) the Effective Date. Each Executory Contract
assumed hereunder (other than the CIPP) shall include all prior mutually agreed
modifications, amendments, supplements, or restatements to such contract or
lease. Entry of this Confirmation Order constitutes approval of such assumptions
pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and a finding by the
Bankruptcy

46

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Court that each such assumed executory contract or unexpired lease is in the
best interest of the Debtors, their bankruptcy estates, and all parties in
interest in the Chapter 11 Cases. Entry of this Confirmation Order further
constitutes approval of the form of notice provided to non-debtor counterparties
whose Executory Contracts were assumed pursuant to Schedule 7.1 of the Plan
Supplement or Schedule 7.1 of the Amended Plan Supplement, and that to Schedule
7.1 of the Plan Supplement and Schedule 7.1 of the Amended Plan Supplement were
served in accordance with the Bankruptcy Rules.
124.    Except as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties, on or before the
30th day after the Effective Date, the Debtors shall cure any and all undisputed
defaults under each Executory Contract assumed by the Debtors pursuant to the
Plan, in accordance with section 365(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, by the payment
of the respective proposed Cure Amounts. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by
the parties, each non-debtor party to an Executory Contract to objects to a
proposed Cure Amount was required to file an objection within fifteen (15) days
of service of notice of intent to assume the Executory Contract. Any Cure
Dispute that was not scheduled for a hearing by the Bankruptcy Court on or
before the date of the Confirmation Hearing shall be scheduled for a later date
as may be determined by the Bankruptcy Court. Following resolution of a Cure
Dispute by Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Executory Contract shall be
deemed assumed effective as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that the
Debtors reserve the right to reject any such Executory Contract following entry
of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court resolving any such Cure Dispute, by
filing a notice indicating such rejection within five (5) Business Days of the
entry of such Final Order. To the extent a Final Order is entered with respect
to a disputed Cure Amount, and the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as
applicable, do not determine to reject such Executory

47

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

48

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Contract, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay the Cure
Amount as set forth in the Final Order no later than thirty (30) days after the
entry of the Final Order, or as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties.
125.    Any proofs of Claim filed with respect to an Executory Contract that has
been assumed shall be deemed disallowed and expunged, without further notice to
or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court or any other Entity.
Unless a proof of claim was timely filed with respect thereto, all contingent
reimbursement or indemnity claims for prepetition amounts expended by the
non-debtor parties to assumed executory contracts and unexpired leases shall be
discharged upon entry of this Confirmation Order.
126.    No Claims arising pursuant to any Restrictive Covenant Agreement5 shall
be elevated to Administrative Expense Claims.

E.

128.    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, any Entity that fails to file
a proof of Claim on or before the Administrative Expense Claims Bar Date,
Professional Fees Bar Date, or Contract Rejection Bar Date, or any other bar
dates established in these Chapter 11 Cases (collectively, the “Bar Dates”), or
was not otherwise permitted to file a proof of claim after

5 “Restrictive Covenant Agreements” means those agreements entered into by one
or more of the Debtors and their various employees and former employees prior to
the commencement of the Cases and containing restrictive covenants, including,
without limitation, the following: (i) Employment Confidentiality,
Non-Competition, and Non-Interference Agreement (October 1999-March 2003); (ii)

Debtors.
F.
Trustee Claims

128.    The Reorganized Debtors shall pay the Trustee Claims (a) on the
Effective Date in respect of outstanding invoices submitted on or prior to the
tenth Business Day immediately preceding the Effective Date, and (b) within ten
(10) Business Days following receipt by the Reorganized Debtors of the
applicable invoice, in respect of invoices submitted after the tenth Business
Day immediately preceding the Effective Date; provided, however, that to receive
payment pursuant to Section 13.7 of the Plan, each Trustee shall provide
reasonable and customary detail (which may be redacted to protect privileged or
confidential information) along with or as part of all invoices submitted in
support of its respective Trustee Claims to the attorneys for the Reorganized
Debtors, the First Lien Noteholders, the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders, and
the U.S. Trustee. The Reorganized Debtors, the First Lien Noteholders, the
Consenting Second Lien Noteholders, and the U.S. Trustee shall have the right to
file objections to such Claims based on a “reasonableness” standard within ten
(10) days after receipt of such invoices, including supporting documentation. To
the extent it has jurisdiction, any disputed amount of such Claims shall be
subject to the jurisdiction of, and resolution by, the Bankruptcy Court. If an
objection is timely filed to a Trustee Claim, the Bankruptcy Court shall hold a
hearing on notice to determine the reasonableness of such Claim. Upon payment of
such Trustee Claims in full or by resolution of the Bankruptcy Court, each such
Trustee will be deemed to

50

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

have released its lien and priority rights for its fees and expenses under the
respective indenture or loan agreement solely to the extent of such Claims.
G.
Continuation of Compensation and Benefits Program

129.    Except to the extent previously assumed or rejected by an order of the
Bankruptcy Court entered on or before the Effective Date, all employee
compensation and benefit plans entered into before or after the Commencement
Date and not since terminated shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as if
they were, Executory Contracts assumed pursuant to the Plan. The Debtors’
obligations under such plans and programs shall survive confirmation of the
Plan, except for (a) Executory Contracts or employee benefit plans specifically
rejected pursuant to the Plan (to the extent such rejection does not violate
sections 1114 and 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code) and (b) such Executory
Contracts or employee benefit plans as have previously been rejected, are the
subject of a motion to reject as of the Effective Date, or have been
specifically waived by the beneficiaries of any employee benefit plan or
contract. Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.6 of the Plan to the contrary,
any equity incentive plans of any of the Debtors, and any stock option,
restricted stock, or other equity agreements and any stock appreciation rights
or similar equity incentives or equity based incentives or other obligations or
liabilities the value of which depend on the price of, or distributions paid
with respect to, equity securities, shall be cancelled as of the Effective Date
and shall not give rise to any Allowed Claims and the Reorganized Debtors shall
have no liability or responsibility in respect of such equity interests.
H.
Insurance Policies

51

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

130.    All insurance policies that have not been previously assumed and
pursuant to which the Debtors have any obligations in effect as of the date of
this Confirmation Order are hereby deemed to be and treated as Executory
Contracts pursuant to the Plan, and are hereby assumed by the respective Debtors
and Reorganized Debtors and shall continue in full force and effect. All the
Debtors’ insurance policies hereby revest in the Reorganized Debtors.

and proceedings against the Debtors or such directors, officers, agents,
employees, the Term Lender, the Term Agent, and/or any First Lien Noteholders,
based upon any act or omission occurring at or prior to the Effective Date for
or on behalf of the Debtors shall not be discharged or impaired by confirmation
of the Plan provided that the Reorganized Debtors shall not indemnify officers,
directors, agents, employees, the Term Lender, the Term Agent, and/or the First
Lien Noteholders of the Debtors for any Claims or Causes of Action arising out
of or relating to any act or omission that is a criminal act or constitutes
intentional fraud. All such obligations shall be deemed and treated as Executory
Contracts assumed by the Debtors under the Plan and shall continue as
obligations of the Reorganized Debtors. Any Claim based on the Debtors’
obligations herein (collectively, the “Indemnification Claims”) shall not be a
Disputed

52

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Claim or subject to any objection in either case by reason of section
502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.
132.    After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall not terminate or
otherwise reduce the coverage under any directors’ and officers’ insurance
policies (including any “tail policy”) in effect as of the Commencement Date,
and all directors and officers of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any
time before the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any
such policy for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such
directors and/or officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date.
J.
Preservation of Claims

133.    Except as otherwise treated in connection with the Plan, this
Confirmation Order, or any settlement agreement approved during the Chapter 11
Cases, in accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the
Reorganized Debtors (a) shall retain and may enforce, sue on, settle, or
compromise (or decline to do any of the foregoing) all Preserved Claims without
the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, subject to the terms of Sections 6.2 and
9.6 of the Plan, this Confirmation Order, and any contract, instrument, release,
indenture, or other agreement entered into in connection with the Plan; and (b)
may pursue such Preserved Claims, as appropriate, in accordance with the best
interests of the Reorganized Debtors or their successor(s) who hold such rights.

of the Bankruptcy Court.

selected with the prior consent of the Consenting Noteholders; provided,
however, that (a) with respect to the Distributions to be made to holders of
Allowed First Lien Notes Claims, the First Lien Notes Trustee shall be the

be required to, set off against any Claim (for purposes of determining the
Allowed amount of such Claim on which Distribution shall be made), any Claims of
any nature whatsoever that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have
against the holder of such Claim; provided, however, that neither the failure to
do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or
release by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of any such Claim the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Confirmation Order, all of the
United States of America’s setoff and/or recoupment rights, if any, are
expressly preserved.

Directors of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors), except for the entry of this
Confirmation Order and as otherwise required by the Exit Financing Documents,
the Reorganized Debtors (and all officers and responsible representatives of the
Reorganized Debtors) shall, and are authorized to, enter into and perform and
receive the proceeds of the Exit Financing, and to execute and deliver the Exit
Financing Documents, in each case consistent with the terms of the Plan and to
the extent different from the Plan, then on terms and conditions acceptable to

Reorganized Debtors; provided, however, that the provision(s) of this
Confirmation Order and the Plan Documents, including but not limited to the
Plan, Plan Supplement and any amendment, modification or supplement thereto,
shall be subject to the approval of the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers only
to the extent such provisions materially adversely affect any of the rights and
interests of any or all of the Entities in the Exit Financing Group in their
capacities as such (as determined in good faith by the Applicable Exit Financing
Arrangers).
140.    Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed (i) approval of the Exit
Financing, the Exit Financing Documents, and all transactions in connection with
the Exit

55

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Financing, and all actions to be taken, undertakings to be made, and obligations
to be incurred by the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith, including the
payment of all fees, indemnities, and expenses provided for therein, and (ii)
authorization of the Reorganized Debtors (and all officers and responsible

Arrangers may require to effectuate the Exit Financing, subject to such

Exit Financing Documents are being extended, and shall be deemed to have been
extended in good faith, for legitimate business purposes, are reasonable, shall
not be subject to recharacterization for any purposes whatsoever, and shall not
constitute preferential transfers or fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy
Code or any other applicable non-bankruptcy law. On the Effective Date, all the
Liens and security interests to be granted in accordance with the Exit Financing
Documents (i) shall be deemed to be approved, (ii) shall be legal, binding and
enforceable Liens on, and security interests in, the collateral granted
thereunder in accordance with the terms of the Exit Financing Documents, (iii)
shall be deemed perfected on the Effective Date, subject only to such Liens and
security interests as may be permitted under the Exit Financing Documents, and
(iv) shall not be subject to recharacterization or equitable subordination for
any purposes whatsoever and shall not constitute preferential transfers or
fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable
non-bankruptcy law. The Reorganized Debtors and the persons and Entities
granting such Liens and security interests are

authorized to make all filings and recordings, and to obtain all governmental
approvals and consents necessary to establish and perfect such Liens and
security interests under the provisions of the applicable state, provincial,
federal, or other law (whether domestic or foreign) that would be applicable in
the absence of the Plan and this Confirmation Order (it being understood that
perfection shall occur automatically by virtue of the entry of the Confirmation
Order and any such filings, recordings, approvals and consents shall not be
required), and will thereafter cooperate to make all other filings and
recordings that otherwise would be reasonably necessary under applicable law to
give notice of such Liens and security interests to third parties. To the extent
that the DIP Agents, the Term Agent, the First Lien Notes Trustee, the Second
Lien Notes Trustee, or the holders of any Secured Claim (including, without
limitation, the DIP Lenders, the holders of the Term Loan, the holders of First
Lien Notes and the holders of Second Lien Notes) or any agent for any such
holders, has filed or recorded publicly any Liens and/or security interests to
secure any Secured Claim, then as soon as practicable on or after the Effective
Date (provided that all payments to the Term Lender and the First Lien
Noteholders required under the Plan have been made), the DIP Agents, the Term
Agent, the First Lien Notes Trustee, the Second Lien Notes Trustee or the holder
of any Secured Claim (or the agent for such holder), as the case may be, shall
take any and all steps reasonably requested by any or all of the Debtors, the
Reorganized Debtors, the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers and the
administrative and collateral agents under the Exit Financing that are necessary
to cancel, extinguish or modify as applicable, such publicly-filed Liens and/or
security interests, it being understood that, in each case, all costs and
expenses in connection therewith shall be paid by the Debtors or Reorganized
Debtors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in the
Plan, the Plan Supplement, or any contract, instrument, release, or other
agreement or document created

57

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable
distributions made pursuant to the Plan (provided that all payments to the Term
Lender and the First Lien Noteholders required under the Plan have been made),
all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests
against any property of the Estates shall be fully released and discharged, and
all of the rights, title, and interests of any holder of such mortgages, deeds
of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests shall revert to the
Reorganized Debtors and their successors and assigns.
141.    On the Effective Date, the DIP Lender Claims shall be paid in full, in
cash, in accordance with the Plan and the DIP Documents, and the Debtors are
authorized to make such payments. Upon payment in full, in cash, of the DIP
Lender Claims, and only upon such payment, any and all Liens against and
security interests in the Debtors’ (and the Estates’) property held by the DIP
Lenders or the DIP Agent arising from the DIP Documents shall be released. Upon
satisfaction in full, in cash, of the DIP Lender Claims as provided for and in
accordance with the Plan and the DIP Documents, any and all Liens against and
security interests in the Debtors’ (and the Estates’) property held by the DIP
Lenders or the DIP Agent arising from the DIP Documents shall be deemed
released, terminated, and extinguished, in each case without further notice to
or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act, or action under applicable law,
regulation, order, or rule, or the vote, consent, authorization, or approval of
any Entity, and, except as specifically set forth in the DIP Documents, the
Debtors shall have no further obligations under the DIP Documents.
142.    Each holder of an Allowed Second Lien Notes Claim (other than the
Backstop Lenders and their respective affiliates, except as provided in the New
Second Lien Term Loan Commitment Letter) shall have the right (a) to participate
in the New Second Lien

58

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Term Loan based on its Pro Rata Share (as defined in the New Second Lien Term
Loan Commitment Letter) and (b) to receive on account, and to the extent, of its
participation therein its Pro Rata Share of notes evidencing the New Second Lien
Term Loan. Each Holder of an Allowed Second Lien Notes Claim (other than a
Backstop Lender or any of its affiliates) electing to participate in the New
Second Lien Term Loan shall provide written notification of such election to
Silver Point Finance, LLC by no later than the date that is three (3) Business
Days following entry of this Confirmation Order. If any holder of Allowed Second
Lien Notes Claims elects to participate in the New Second Lien Term Loan
pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the commitments of the Backstop Lenders to
provide the New Second Lien Term Loan shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar
basis, ratably as between the Backstop Lenders in accordance with the terms of
the Second Lien Term Loan Commitment Letter. Each such holder’s affirmative
election to participate in the New Second Lien Term Loan shall be deemed to be
its consent to the terms and provisions of the New Second Credit Agreement and
the other agreements related thereto, and each such holder shall be bound by the
terms of the New Second Lien Credit Agreement and such other related agreements
as if it had executed signature pages thereto (regardless of whether such person
actually executes a signature page to any such agreement).

156.    On the Effective Date, any document, agreement, or instrument evidencing
any Claim or Equity Interest against a Debtor (other than any Claim or Equity
Interest that is reinstated by the Plan pursuant to section 1124 of the

rule, and the obligations of such Debtor under such documents, agreements, or
instruments, and any Liens or Claims for diminution granted to the Term Lender,
Term Agent, the First Lien Noteholders, the Second Lien Noteholders, and the

Effective Date, the Stockholders Agreement shall become effective and binding
upon each of the parties thereto in accordance with its terms, in each case
without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, or any act or action
under applicable law, or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any

65

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

providing for preemptive rights or the listing of the Reorganized Rotech Common

A.

any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Commencement Date,

discharged without further notice or order; (b) the Plan shall bind all holders
of Claims and Equity Interests, notwithstanding whether any such holders failed

Reorganized Debtors, their successors and assigns and their assets and
properties any other Claims or Equity Interests based upon any documents,
instruments or any act or omission, transaction or other activity of any kind or
nature that occurred before the Effective Date. The definition of “Claims” in
the Plan includes the Bankruptcy Code’s definition, and also expands the
definition to include all equitable rights, regardless of whether they give rise
to rights to payment for breach of performance.
160.    Without limitation, except with respect to the United States of America
as provided in the Plan, rights of setoff and recoupment are discharged;
provided, however, that a party may have preserved its setoff and/or recoupment
right if such party (i) filed, prior to the

66

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

date of this Confirmation Order, a motion for relief from the automatic stay
seeking authority to effectuate such a setoff right, or (ii) timely filed a
proof of Claim preserving such setoff and/or recoupment rights in such proof of
Claim or amendment thereto.
161.    Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Plan, nothing shall limit,
affect, or impair any rights or claims that Guy Christopher Duncan and Janice
Duncan (“Mr. and Mrs. Duncan”) may have against Willie Lee Mackey and/or ACE
American Insurance Company (together with its affiliates, “ACE”) for any Claim
or Cause of Action which is currently pending in the action styled (Duncan v.
Mackey) 2012-CP-29-254 (the “Duncan Action”) or may be brought in the South
Carolina Court of Common Pleas (the “South Carolina Court”) except that, unless
Mr. and Mrs. Duncan and the Debtors agree otherwise, in the event that the South
Carolina Court with jurisdiction over the Duncan Action determines that the
agreement dated February 22, 2013, titled “Settlement Agreement” is binding upon
the Debtors and Mr. and Mrs. Duncan, then Mr. and Mrs. Duncan’s unsecured claim
against the Debtors, which has been scheduled and allowed in the amount of
$220,000 (the “Duncan Claim”), shall be promptly satisfied by a distribution to
Mr. and Mrs. Duncan from the Debtors’ estates in accordance with the provisions
of the Plan upon confirmation that the Duncan Action has been dismissed with
prejudice; provided, however, in the event the South Carolina Court with
jurisdiction over the Duncan Action determines the Settlement Agreement is not
binding on the Debtors and Mr. and Mrs. Duncan, the Duncan Claim shall be
disallowed without the need for further application to or order from this Court;
provided, further, however, that nothing herein or in the Plan either creates or
precludes a direct right of action by Mr. and Mrs. Duncan against ACE or any
third party administrator, to the extent such direct right of action exists
under applicable law. Further (i) nothing shall prejudice or otherwise limit the
rights of the Debtors or any other party

67

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to contest or defend against any such Claims or Cause of Action by Mr. and Mrs.
Duncan and (ii) nothing shall modify, alter, or otherwise affect the terms and
conditions of applicable insurance policies (and related insurance agreements),
if any.

the date indicated in the order providing for such injunction or stay.

Action, interest or remedy released or to be released pursuant to the Plan or

impair the rights of the Trustees in relation to the holders of the Notes.
169.    Section 5.5.4 of the Plan is hereby added and states as follows:

Contracts to which any of the Debtors are parties are hereby rejected, except
for an Executory Contract that (a) has previously been assumed or rejected

as a contract or lease to be assumed on a schedule of contracts and leases filed
and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing (which shall be in
all respects in form and substance satisfactory to the Consenting Noteholders),
(c) is the subject of a separate (i) assumption motion filed by the Debtors or
(ii) rejection motion filed by the Debtors under section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code before the date of the

70

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Confirmation Hearing, or (d) is the subject of a pending objection regarding
assumption, proposed Cure Amount, “adequate assurance of future performance”
(within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) or other issues
related to assumption of the contract or lease (a “Cure Dispute”).
On the Effective Date, each of the Debtors shall assume and cure the defaults on
each of their Medicare executory contracts with the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (“CMS”) (collectively, the “Assumed Medicare Executory
Contracts”). Such Assumed Medicare Executory Contracts shall include each of the
Debtors’ Enrollment Agreements and, as applicable, each of the Debtors’
Participating Supplier Agreements and Competitive Bidding Program Contracts. In
addition, each of the Debtors will assume and cure the defaults on each of its
contracts with the United States Department of Veterans Administration (the “VA”
and such contracts with the VA, collectively, the “Assumed VA Contracts”) and
state Medicaid programs (“Medicaid” and such contracts with Medicaid,
collectively, the “Assumed Medicaid Contracts”) (together with the Assumed
Medicare Executory Contracts and the Assumed VA Contracts, the “Government
Contracts”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan or in the
Confirmation Order, the Cure Amount for assumption of the Government Contracts
shall not be a sum certain set by the Debtors or the Bankruptcy Court.

include the agreement by each of the Debtors to continue its participation in
the Medicare program in the ordinary course of business and to be governed by,
and subject to, the terms and conditions of its Assumed Medicare Executory
Contracts and the incorporated Medicare statutes, regulations, policies and
procedures.
The Debtors will remain liable for any debt under the Government Contracts as if
the bankruptcy case had not occurred and no discharge was entered. In addition,
nothing in this Plan or the Confirmation Order shall release (or operate to
enjoin) any Medicare, VA or Medicaid claim against any of the Debtors or against
any non-debtor under the Government Contracts.
For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of the Reorganized Debtors, including,
without limitation, the right to contest overpayments under the Government
Contracts and, as provided by applicable statutes and implementing regulations,
are expressly preserved.
Furthermore, because any amount due under the Government Contracts shall be
collected in the ordinary course, the United States, on behalf of CMS and the
VA, shall not be required to file any proof of claim or motion in the Bankruptcy
Court to collect amounts due the United States, whether via a proof of claim,
claim for cure or administrative claim. All of the claims of the United States
under the

71

expressly preserved. With respect to the United States of America, nothing in
this Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be construed to enlarge the discharge
beyond what is provided in section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code and 18 U.S.C.
§ 3613.
173.    The last clause of Section 9.6 of the Plan is hereby amended and
restated as follows:
except that nothing in this section shall be construed to release any party or
Entity from gross negligence, willful misconduct, intentional fraud or criminal
conduct as determined by Final Order.
174.    Subparagraph (o) of Section 11.1 of the Plan is hereby amended and
restated as follows:
(o)    to determine the scope of any discharge of any Debtor under this Plan or
the Bankruptcy Code, provided, however, that the Bankruptcy Court’s jurisdiction
over the determination of dischargeability of debts owing the United States is
non-exclusive;

avoidance of doubt, any proof of claim bar date and the Administrative Bar Date
shall not be applicable to Westchester with respect to Claims arising under the
Original GIA), and (v) on the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall
execute a new indemnity agreement with Westchester which shall be in the form
mutually agreed upon by the Reorganized Debtors and Westchester (provided
however, that unless and until such indemnity agreement is executed the Original
GIA shall have full force and effect against the Reorganized Debtors as though a
party thereto).
E.
Regions Bank

176.    Nothing in the Plan or this Order shall be construed to terminate,
limit, modify, or otherwise affect the security interests and setoff rights held
by Regions Bank in any pledged cash and cash equivalents securing a prepetition

73

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

obligations under the prepetition Purchasing Card Agreements, including without
limitation, Certificate of Deposit No. xxxxxx9048 and money market account No.

governed by the prepetition and postpetition agreements between Rotech
Healthcare, Inc. and Regions Bank, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by
the Debtor and Regions Bank. The automatic stay with respect to such account and
certificate of deposit shall be terminated effective as of the Effective Date.

Agreements and Competitive Bidding Program Contracts in accordance with Section

INTRODUCTION
Rotech Healthcare Inc. (“Rotech”) and its title 11 subsidiaries listed in
Exhibit A to this Plan as chapter 11 debtors and debtors in possession in the
above-captioned chapter 11 cases (collectively, the “Debtors”) propose this Plan

the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101-1532.
This Plan consists of 115 separate chapter 11 Plans – one Plan for each of the
Debtors that will emerge as a reorganized entity. This Plan does not

the “Plan” shall be a reference to the separate Plan of each Debtor, as the
context requires. The votes to accept or reject a Plan by holders of Claims
against a particular Debtor shall be tabulated as votes to accept or reject such
Debtor’s separate Plan. Distributions under a Debtor’s Plan will be made to the
holders of Claims in the Classes identified in such Plan.

provided or unless the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms not
otherwise defined shall have the meanings in section 1.2 of this Plan. Unless
the context otherwise requires, any capitalized term used and not defined in
this Plan, but that is defined in the Bankruptcy Code, shall have the meaning
ascribed in the Bankruptcy Code.

an Allowed Administrative Expense Claim shall receive Cash in an amount equal to
such Allowed Administrative Expense Claim on, or as soon thereafter as is

Expense Claim, provided, however, that Allowed Administrative Expense Claims
representing liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business by the

Reorganized Debtor in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the
Reorganized Debtor’s customary and historical satisfaction of the terms and

granted such an award by the Bankruptcy Court, such holders shall be paid in
full in such amounts as are Allowed by the Bankruptcy Court to the extent not
previously paid by prior order of the Bankruptcy Court (A) on the date on which
such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, or (B) upon such other terms as may be

attributable to such Priority Tax Claim, on the latest of (i) the Effective
Date, (ii) the date on which such Priority Tax Claim becomes an Allowed Priority
Tax Claim, and (iii) the date such Allowed Priority Tax Claim is payable under

Documents in effect prior to the Effective Date, except to the extent such
certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other Governance Documents are
amended and restated or otherwise revised pursuant to this section 4.4 and
section 8.4 of this Plan, to comply with Bankruptcy Code section 1123(a)(6) or
otherwise, without prejudice to any right to terminate such existence (whether
by merger or otherwise) under applicable law after the Effective Date.
4.5    Formation and Corporate Structure.
4.5.1    Corporate Structure. On the Effective Date, Reorganized Rotech will
continue to exist as the parent holding company of the Reorganized Guarantor
Debtors and shall own 100% of each of the Reorganized Guarantor Debtors directly
or indirectly. The shares owned by Reorganized Rotech in each of the Reorganized
Guarantor Debtors shall be used to recreate the same organizational structure
that existed on the Commencement Date, or as otherwise directed by the
Consenting Noteholders.
4.5.2    Issuance and Distribution of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock. On the
Effective Date, the existing common stock of Rotech will be cancelled and
extinguished, and Reorganized Rotech will issue the Reorganized Rotech Common
Stock to holders of the Second Lien Notes Trustee to disburse to holders of
Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims. With respect to such Distributions of
Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, the Second Lien Notes Trustee shall (i) be the
Disbursing Agent, (ii) receive the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock to be
disbursed to holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims as indenture trustee
for the Second Lien Notes Indenture, and (iii) be responsible for making
Distributions to holders of Allowed Second Lien Notes Claims in accordance with
the terms of this Plan and the Second Lien Notes Indenture.
4.6    Form of Securities to be Issued; Exemption from Registration. Unless
otherwise agreed to by the Reorganized Debtors, all shares of Reorganized Rotech
will be non-certificated. In reliance upon Bankruptcy Code section 1145(a), at
the time of issuance, none of the securities issued in connection with this Plan
will be registered under section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
any state or local law requiring registration for the offer or sale of
securities. In addition, except as provided in the Stockholders Agreement, none
of the securities issued in connection with this Plan will be listed on a
securities exchange. Rotech will not participate in making a market (or
facilitate making a market) in any such securities. The Stockholders Agreement
shall be deemed effective and binding upon each person or Entity that is or
becomes a holder of shares of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, and each such
person or Entity shall, upon its receipt of such shares, be deemed to be a party
to the Stockholders Agreement as a Stockholder (as defined in the Stockholders
Agreement) or an Employee Stockholder (as defined in the Stockholders
Agreement), as applicable, for all purposes thereunder, irrespective of whether
such person or Entity is or becomes a signatory thereto.
4.7    Certain Tax Treatment. Net Operating Loss Treatment: To the extent
section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code provides an exception to the general rule of
section 382(a) of the Tax Code and such exception is available, Rotech will, in
consultation with the Consenting Noteholders, determine on or before the date
that such election must be made whether it intends to utilize the exception in
section 382(l)(5) of the Tax Code or it intends to elect out of the exception.

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.8    Cancellation of Existing Securities and Agreements. On the Effective
Date, except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan, the
obligations of the Debtors under the Term Loan Agreement, the First Lien
Indenture, the Second Lien Indenture, and any other Certificate, Equity
Security, share, note, bond, indenture, purchase right, option, warrant, or
other instrument or document directly or indirectly evidencing or creating any
indebtedness or obligation of or ownership interest in the Debtors giving rise
to any Claim or Equity Interest (other than any Claim or Equity Interest that is
reinstated by this Plan pursuant to section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code or
created by this Plan) shall be deemed cancelled without further act or action
under any applicable agreement, law, regulation, order, or rule, and the
obligations of that Debtor under those documents, agreements, or instruments,
and any Liens or Claims for diminution granted to the Term Lenders, Term Agent,
the First Lien Noteholders, the Second Lien Noteholders and the Trustees
pursuant to the DIP Order, shall be discharged. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Indentures shall continue in effect to the extent necessary to (i) permit
the Trustees, as applicable, to receive and make Distributions pursuant to the
Plan on account of the Notes and the Indentures and (ii) permit the Trustees to
assert their respective charging liens and priority of payment rights under the
Indentures.
4.9    Qualified Claims. Each holder of an Allowed Claim in an amount less than
or equal to $5,000 shall not be required to execute and deliver a New Rotech
Supplier Credit Agreement to the Reorganized Debtors to receive the treatment
provided under section 3.3.5 or section 3.4.5 hereof, as applicable; provided,
that each such holder indicates on its Ballot that in consideration for its
Allowed Claim receiving the treatment provided under section 3.3.5 or section
3.4.5 of this Plan, as applicable, such holder elects to be bound to a New
Rotech Supplier Credit Agreement in form to be filed by the Debtors with the
Plan Supplement (which form shall be satisfactory to the Consenting Noteholders
in all respects).
4.10    Sources of Consideration for Plan Distributions. Except as otherwise
provided in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, all consideration necessary for
the Reorganized Debtors to make payments pursuant to this Plan shall be obtained
from the existing Cash balances of the Debtors, the proceeds of the Exit
Financing, and the operations of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors. The
Reorganized Debtors may also make such payments using Cash received from their
subsidiaries through the Reorganized Debtors’ consolidated cash management
systems.
4.11    Reserved.
4.12    Exit Financing. Subject to, and upon the occurrence of, the Effective
Date, and without further notice to or order or other approval of the Bankruptcy
Court, any act or action under applicable law, regulation, order or rule or the
vote, consent, authorization or approval of any person or Entity (including the
Boards of Directors of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors), except for the entry
of the Confirmation Order and as otherwise required by the Exit Financing
Documents, the Reorganized Debtors shall, and are authorized to, enter into and
perform and receive the proceeds of the Exit Financing, and to execute and
deliver the Exit Financing Documents, in each case consistent with the terms of
this Plan and to the extent different from this Plan, then on terms and
conditions acceptable to the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers, the Consenting
Noteholders and the Reorganized Debtors; provided, however, that the
provision(s) of the Confirmation Order and the Plan Documents, including but not
limited to the Plan, Plan Supplement and any amendment,

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

modification or supplement thereto, shall be subject to the approval of the
Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers only to the extent such provisions
materially adversely affect any of the rights and interests of any or all of the
Entities in the Exit Financing Group in their capacities as such (as determined
in good faith by the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers). Confirmation of this
Plan shall be deemed (i) approval of the Exit Financing, the Exit Financing
Documents, and all transactions in connection with the Exit Financings and all
actions to be taken, undertakings to be made, and obligations to be incurred by
the Reorganized Debtors in connection therewith, including the payment of all
fees, indemnities, and expenses provided for therein, and (ii) authorization of
the Reorganized Debtors to enter into and execute the Exit Financing Documents
and such other documents as the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers may require
to effectuate the Exit Financing, subject to such modifications as the
Reorganized Debtors and the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers may mutually
agree are necessary or appropriate to effectuate the Exit Financing. The Exit
Financing Documents shall constitute legal, valid, binding and authorized
obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, enforceable in accordance with their
terms. The financial accommodations to be extended pursuant to the Exit
Financing Documents are being extended, and shall be deemed to have been
extended in good faith, for legitimate business purposes, are reasonable, shall
not be subject to recharacterization for any purposes whatsoever, and shall not
constitute preferential transfers or fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy
Code or any other applicable non-bankruptcy law. On the Effective Date, all of
the Liens and security interests to be granted in accordance with the Exit
Financing Documents (i) shall be deemed to be approved, (ii) shall be legal,
binding and enforceable Liens on, and security interests in, the collateral
granted thereunder in accordance with the terms of the Exit Financing Documents,
(iii) shall be deemed perfected on the Effective Date, subject only to such
Liens and security interests as may be permitted under the Exit Financing
Documents, and (iv) shall not be subject to recharacterization or equitable
subordination for any purposes whatsoever and shall not constitute preferential
transfers or fraudulent conveyances under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable
non-bankruptcy law. The Reorganized Debtors and the persons and Entities
granting such Liens and security interests are authorized to make all filings
and recordings, and to obtain all governmental approvals and consents necessary
to establish and perfect such Liens and security interests under the provisions
of the applicable state, provincial, federal, or other law (whether domestic or
foreign) that would be applicable in the absence of this Plan and the
Confirmation Order (it being understood that perfection shall occur
automatically by virtue of the entry of the Confirmation Order and any such
filings, recordings, approvals and consents shall not be required), and will
thereafter cooperate to make all other filings and recordings that otherwise
would be reasonably necessary under applicable law to give notice of such Liens
and security interests to third parties. To the extent that the DIP Agents, the
Term Agent, the First Lien Notes Trustee, the Second Lien Notes Trustee, or the
holders of any Secured Claim (including, without limitation, the DIP Lenders,
the holders of the Term Loan, the holders of First Lien Notes and the holders of
Second Lien Notes) or any agent for any such holders, has filed or recorded
publicly any Liens and/or security interests to secure any Secured Claim, then
as soon as practicable on or after the Effective Date, the DIP Agents, the Term
Agent, the First Lien Notes Trustee, the Second Lien Notes Trustee or the holder
of any Secured Claim (or the agent for such holder), as the case may be, shall
take any and all steps reasonably requested by any or all of the Debtors, the
Reorganized Debtors, the Applicable Exit Financing Arrangers and the
administrative and collateral agents under the Exit Financing that are necessary
to cancel, extinguish or modify as applicable, such publicly-filed Liens and/or
security interests, it being understood that,

29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in each case, all costs and expenses in connection therewith shall be paid by
the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the Confirmation Order or this Plan, the Bankruptcy Court’s retention of
jurisdiction shall not be exclusive in respect of any disputes or Claims arising
or asserted under, or any enforcement action or rights or remedies taken or
exercised in connection with, the Exit Financing Documents after the Effective
Date.
4.13    New Second Lien Term Loan Participations. The Backstop Lenders have
agreed to and shall fund the full amount of the New Second Lien Term Loan on the
Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the New Second Lien Term
Loan Commitment Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each holder of Allowed
Second Lien Notes Claims shall have the right to participate in the New Second
Lien Term Loan in accordance with Section 3.3.3 above, provided such holder
executes the New Second Lien Credit Agreement as a lender thereunder, performs
its obligations under the applicable Exit Financing Documents in accordance with
the terms thereof and funds its participation in full in cash on the Effective
Date (if so directed by Reorganized Rotech in accordance with the terms of the
New Second Lien Credit Agreement). If any holder of Allowed Second Lien Notes
Claims elects to participate in the New Second Lien Term Loan pursuant to the
terms of this Plan, the commitments of the Backstop Lenders to provide the New
Second Lien Term Loan shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis, ratably as
between the Backstop Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien
Term Loan Commitment Letter.
ARTICLE V    

VOTING AND DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE PLAN
5.1    Impaired Classes to Vote. Except to the extent a Class of Claims or
Equity Interests is deemed to have accepted or rejected this Plan, each holder
of a Claim in an Impaired Class as of the Voting Record Date shall be entitled
to vote to accept or reject this Plan as provided in such order as is entered by
the Bankruptcy Court establishing procedures with respect to the solicitation
and tabulation of votes to accept or reject this Plan, or any other order or
orders of the Bankruptcy Court.
5.2    Acceptance by Class of Claims. An Impaired Class of Claims shall have
accepted a Plan if the Plan is accepted by at least two-thirds (2/3) in dollar
amount and more than one-half (1/2) in number of the Allowed Claims of such
Class that have voted to accept or reject the Plan. Unimpaired Classes are
conclusively presumed to have accepted the Plan.
5.3    Elimination of Vacant Classes. Any Class of Claims or Equity Interests
that does not have a Claim or Equity Interest as of the date of the Confirmation
Hearing shall be deemed eliminated from this Plan for all purposes.
5.4    Nonconsensual Confirmation. With respect to each Impaired Class of Claims
that is deemed to reject the Plan or rejects the Plan, the Debtors will request
that the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan in accordance with section 1129(b) of
the Bankruptcy Code.
5.5    Distributions Under the Plan. Whenever any Distribution to be made
pursuant to this Plan shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, the
Distribution shall instead be made,

30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

without interest, on the immediately succeeding Business Day, but shall be
deemed to have been made on the date due. The Distributions shall be made to the
holders of Allowed Claims as of the Distribution Record-Date.
5.5.1    Distribution Record Date. As of the close of business on the
Distribution Record Date, the various transfer registers for each of the Classes
of Claims or Equity Interests as maintained by the Debtors or their respective
agents, shall be deemed closed, and there shall be no further changes in the
record holders of any of the Claims or Equity Interests. The Debtors or the
Reorganized Debtors shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of the
Claims or Equity Interests occurring on or after the Distribution Record Date.
5.5.2    Distribution Deadlines. Any Distribution to be made by the Disbursing
Agent pursuant to a Plan shall be deemed to have been timely made in accordance
with the Distributions specified in Article III of this Plan. No interest shall
accrue or be paid with respect to any Distribution as a consequence of the
Distribution not having been made on the Distribution Date.
5.5.3    Minimum Distribution Limitation. If the aggregate value of the
Distribution to be made on the Distribution Date is less than $5,000, such
Distribution may, at the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors, be withheld for
Distribution until the next Distribution Date; provided, however, that if such
Distribution (i) is to be made to the holder of a Claim Allowed after the
immediately preceding Distribution Date, as a result of resolving a dispute over
such Claim or (ii) is the final Distribution to be made under this Plan, such
minimum Distribution limitation shall not apply, and the Disbursing Agent shall
make the Distribution notwithstanding that the aggregate value of the
Distribution may be less than the minimum distribution limitation.
5.6    Delivery of Distributions. Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all
Distributions to any holder of an Allowed Claim shall be made to the Disbursing
Agent, who shall transmit such Distribution to the applicable holders of Allowed
Claims. If any Distribution to any holder is returned as undeliverable, the
Disbursing Agent shall use reasonable efforts to determine the current address
of such holder, but no further Distributions shall be made to such holder unless
and until such Disbursing Agent is notified in writing of such holder’s
then-current address, at which time all currently-due, missed Distributions
shall be made to such holder as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter
without interest; provided, however, that such Distributions shall be deemed
unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration
of one (1) year from the Effective Date, and after such date, all unclaimed
property or interest in property shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors, and
the Claim or Equity Interest of any other holder to such property or interest in
property shall be discharged and forever barred notwithstanding any applicable
federal or state escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property laws to the contrary;
provided, however, any unclaimed distribution on account of a Rotech Class 5.1
Claim or GD Class 5.1 Claim shall first be available for redistribution to
holders of other Allowed Claims in Rotech Class 5.1 and any GD Class 5.1 until
such claimants receive a 100% distribution on their Allowed Claims.
5.6.1    Distributions to Holders of Allowed Term Lender Claims. Distributions
under this Plan to holders of Allowed Term Lender Claims and Allowed First Line
Notes Claims shall be made by the Reorganized Debtors to the Term Agent or First
Lien Notes Trustee, as applicable, which, in turn, shall make the Distributions
to the Term Lender or First Lien Noteholder,

31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

as applicable. Upon delivery by the Reorganized Debtors of the Distributions in
conformity with Article III hereof to the Term Agent or First Lien Notes
Trustee, as applicable, the Reorganized Debtors shall be released of all
liability with respect to the delivery of such Distributions.
5.6.2    Distributions of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock. The Reorganized
Rotech Common Stock shall be issued in book-entry form only and held through
participants (including securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies,
clearing corporations, and other financial organizations) of DTC, as depositary.
Except as noted below, the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock shall not be
certificated or issued in registered form. Except as noted below, to receive
Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, each holder of an Allowed Second Lien Notes
Claim shall be required to designate a direct participant in DTC with whom the
holder has an account. The holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Reorganized Rotech
Common Stock may be credited into that account or accounts, and in the case of
the Second Lien Notes already held through DTC the deliveries will automatically
be made through DTC at the direction of the Second Lien Notes Trustee. For as
long as DTC serves as depositary for the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, the
Second Lien Notes Trustee shall be fully protected and incur no liability to any
holder of the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, any transferee (or purported
transferee) thereof, or any other Entity. If DTC is unwilling or unable to
continue as depositary for the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock and the
Reorganized Debtors have not appointed a successor depositary within ninety (90)
days of becoming aware that DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary
for the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock, the Reorganized Debtors shall exchange
the book-entry Reorganized Rotech Common Stock held through participants of DTC
for certificated Reorganized Rotech Common Stock. If any Distribution of
Reorganized Rotech Common Stock to a holder of an Allowed Second Lien Notes
Claim is undeliverable, then at the expiration of one (1) year from the
Effective Date the undeliverable Distributions shall be deemed unclaimed
property and shall be treated in accordance with section 5.6 of this Plan.
5.7    Reserved.
5.8    Manner of Payment Under the Plan. Unless the Entity receiving a payment
agrees otherwise, any payment in Cash to be made by the Disbursing Agent shall
be made by check drawn on a domestic bank or by automated clearing house
transfer.
5.9    Disbursing Agent. All Distributions hereunder shall be made by the
Disbursing Agent (or such other Entity designated by the Disbursing Agent), on
or after the Effective Date, or as otherwise provided herein. No Disbursing
Agent hereunder shall be required to give any bond or surety or other security
for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy
Court.
5.10    Powers of Disbursing Agent. A Disbursing Agent shall be empowered to
(a) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments and other
documents necessary to perform its duties hereunder, (b) make all Distributions
contemplated hereby and (c) exercise such other powers as may be vested in the
Disbursing Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan, or are
reasonably required to implement the provisions hereof.

32

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.11    Expenses of the Disbursing Agent. Except as otherwise ordered by the
Bankruptcy Court, any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Disbursing
Agent acting in such capacity (including taxes and reasonable attorneys’ fees
and expenses) on or after the Effective Date shall be paid in Cash by the
Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of business.
5.12    Time Bar to Cash Payments. Checks issued by the Disbursing Agent in
respect of any Distribution of Cash made on account of Allowed Claims shall be
null and void if not negotiated within ninety (90) days from and after the date
of issuance thereof. Requests for reissuance of any check shall be made directly
to the Disbursing Agent by the holder of the Allowed Claim with respect to which
such check originally was issued. Any Claim in respect of a voided check shall
be made on or before the later of (a) the first anniversary of the Effective
Date, or (b) 90 days after the date of issuance if the check represents a final
Distribution. After that date, all remaining Claims in respect of voided checks
shall be discharged and forever barred and the applicable Reorganized Debtor
shall retain all related monies as unclaimed property under section 5.6.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any voided check on account of a
Rotech Class 5.1 or GD Class 5.1 distribution, the amount of the voided check
shall not reduce the $1,500,000 available in the aggregate to such Classes.
5.13    No Payment of Postpetition Interest on Allowed General Unsecured Claims,
Allowed Qualified Claims and Cure Amounts. Unless otherwise specifically
provided by this Plan, the Confirmation Order or any order of the Bankruptcy
Court, no postpetition interest shall be paid on Allowed General Unsecured
Claims, Allowed Qualified Claims and Cure Amounts; provided, however, if an
Executory Contract provides for an applicable contract interest rate, which the
holder of such contract or lease timely asserts in objecting to the Debtors’
notice pursuant to section 7.2 of this Plan, then interest shall be calculated
at the contract interest rate, subject to the Debtors’ right to object to any
such asserted interest rate. For the avoidance of doubt, DIP Lender Claims, Term
Lender Claims and First Lien Notes Claims will, in each case, accrue and be paid
postpetition interest in accordance with the terms set forth in the agreements
governing DIP Lender Claims, the Term Lender Claims and the First Lien Notes
Claims, respectively.
5.14    Fractional Units. No fractional shares of Reorganized Rotech Common
Stock shall be issued or distributed under this Plan and no Cash shall be
distributed in lieu of such fractional shares. When any Distribution pursuant to
this Plan on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the issuance
of a number of shares of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock that is not a whole
number, the actual distribution of shares of Reorganized Rotech Common Stock
shall be rounded as follows: (a) fractions of one-half (l/2) or greater shall be
rounded to the next higher whole number and (b) fractions of less than one-half
(l/2) shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment
therefor. The total number of authorized shares of Reorganized Rotech Common
Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims shall be adjusted as
necessary to account for the foregoing rounding.
5.15    Setoffs. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors may, but shall not be
required to, set off against any Claim (for purposes of determining the Allowed
amount of such Claim on which Distribution shall be made), any Claims of any
nature whatsoever that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may have against
the holder of such Claim; provided, that neither the failure

33

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to do so nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or
release by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of any such Claim the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim. Absent
entry of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court on a timely motion seeking relief
from the automatic stay as provided in the last sentence of Section 9.3 hereof,
a claimant (except with respect to the United States of America as provided
herein) may not exercise any alleged rights of setoff or recoupment. Unless any
such rights of set-off or recoupment are included in a timely filed proof of
Claim such rights shall be extinguished and barred.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or the Confirmation Order, all
of the United States of America’s setoff and/or recoupment rights, if any, are
expressly preserved.
5.16    Reserved.
5.17    Distributions After Effective Date. Distributions made after the
Effective Date pursuant to section 6.8 hereof 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 for distribution
purposes.
5.18    Allocation of Distributions Between Principal and Interest. Except as
otherwise provided in this Plan, to the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled
to a Distribution under this Plan is comprised of indebtedness and accrued but
unpaid interest thereon, such Distribution shall be allocated to the accrued but
unpaid interest first and then to the principal amount (as determined for
federal income tax purposes) of the Claim.
5.19    Minimum Distributions. No payment of Cash in an amount less than $50
shall be made to any holder of an Allowed Claim unless a request is made in
writing to the Disbursing Agent within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date.
ARTICLE VI    

PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS
6.1    Cure Amounts and Claim Determinations. (a) All Claims against the Debtors
that result from the Debtors’ rejection of an Executory Contract, (b) disputes
regarding the amount of any Cure Amount pursuant to section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code and (c) Claims that the Debtors seek to have determined by the
Bankruptcy Court, shall in all cases be determined by the Bankruptcy Court
unless otherwise agreed by the parties to such Executory Contract.
6.2    Objections to Claims; Prosecution of Disputed Claims.
6.2.1    Except insofar as a Claim is Allowed under this Plan, only the Debtors
and the Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to object to Claims. Unless
resolved by settlement between the applicable Debtor and the holder of a Claim,
all objections filed and prosecuted by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors shall
be litigated to Final Order by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as
applicable.

34

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6.2.2    Unless otherwise provided in this Plan or ordered by the Bankruptcy
Court, all objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before one
hundred and eighty (180) days after the Effective Date, as may be extended on or
before the running of the one hundred and eighty (180) days by order of the
Bankruptcy Court after notice and a hearing.
6.3    Reserve Account for Disputed Claims. On and after the Effective Date, the
Disputed Claims Reserve shall hold Cash in an aggregate amount sufficient to pay
all holders of Disputed Claims the Distributions in Cash they would have been
entitled to receive under this Plan if all their Claims had been Allowed Claims
on the Effective Date, net of any taxes imposed on the Disputed Claims Reserve
or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve. The Cash to be held in the
Disputed Claims Reserve shall be held and deposited by the Disbursing Agent in a
segregated interest-bearing reserve account. Distributions reserved on account
of any Disputed Claim shall be distributed to the extent it becomes an Allowed
Claim so the holder thereof receives the Distributions it would have received
had it been Allowed on the Effective Date, net of any taxes imposed on or
otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve. Distributions on account of a
Claim that becomes an Allowed Claim after the Effective Date shall be made on
the next Distribution Date following (i) the entry of an order or judgment of
the Bankruptcy Court or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction
(including any appeal) allowing any Disputed Claim that has become a Final
Order, (ii) the withdrawal of any objection to the Disputed Claim, or (iii) a
settlement, compromise, or other resolution of the Disputed Claim.
6.4    No Recourse. Notwithstanding that the Allowed amount of any particular
Disputed Claim is reconsidered under the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code and the Bankruptcy Rules or is Allowed in an amount for which after
application of the payment priorities established by this Plan there is
insufficient value to provide a recovery equal to that received by other holders
of Allowed Claims in the applicable Class, no holder of such Claim shall have
recourse against the Disbursing Agent, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or
any of their respective professionals, consultants, attorneys, advisors,
officers, directors, or members or their successors or assigns, or any of their
respective property. However, nothing in this Plan shall modify any right of a
holder of a Claim under section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.
6.5    Treatment of Disputed Claims Reserve for Federal Income Tax Purposes.
Absent definitive guidance from the IRS or a contrary determination by a court
of competent jurisdiction, the Disbursing Agent shall (i) treat the Disputed
Claims Reserve as a disputed ownership fund for United States federal income tax
purposes within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.468B-9(b)(l) and
(ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, report consistently with the
foregoing characterization for state and local income tax purposes. All holders
of Disputed Claims shall report, for income tax purposes, consistently with the
foregoing.
6.6    No Distributions Pending Allowance. If an objection to a Claim is filed
as set forth in section 6.2 of this Plan, no Distribution provided under this
Plan shall be made on account of the disputed portion of such Claim unless and
until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.
6.7    Distributions After Allowance. To the extent that a Disputed Claim
ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim, Distributions (if any) shall be made to the
holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with the provisions of this Plan. As
soon as practicable after the date that the

35

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any Disputed Claim becomes a
Final Order, the Disbursing Agent shall provide to the holder of such Claim the
Distribution (if any) to which such holder is entitled under this Plan as of the
Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim unless
required under applicable bankruptcy law.
6.8    Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims Following Disallowance of
Disputed Claims. Subject to the minimum Distribution limitation set forth in
section 5.5.3 of this Plan, on each Distribution Date following the Effective
Date, Distributions held in the Disputed Claims Reserve on account of Disputed
General Unsecured Claims and Disputed Qualified Claims that are (a) Disallowed,
shall be distributed, net of any taxes imposed on the Disputed Claims Reserve or
otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve, to the applicable Reorganized
Debtor and (b) Allowed, shall be distributed, net of any taxes imposed on the
Disputed Claims Reserve or otherwise payable by the Disputed Claims Reserve, to
each holder of such Allowed Claim in accordance with this Plan. Any
Distributions made on a Distribution Date following the Effective Date shall be
made in the same manner as provided in section 5.5 of this Plan in respect of
Effective Date Distributions.
6.9    Estimation of Claims. The Reorganized Debtors may at any time request
that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Claim, including, but not limited to,
contingent or unliquidated Claims pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy
Code regardless of whether the Debtor 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, without limitation,
during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. If the
Bankruptcy Court estimates any Claim, the amount so estimated shall 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 the amount of such Claim, the Reorganized Debtors may
pursue supplementary proceedings to object to the allowance of such Claim. All
of the aforementioned objection, estimation and resolution procedures are
intended to be cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be
estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn or resolved by any
mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
6.10    Preservation of Claims and Rights to Settle Claims. Except as otherwise
provided herein, or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture, or other
agreement or document entered into in connection with this Plan, in accordance
with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall
retain and may enforce, sue on, settle, or compromise (or decline to do any of
the foregoing) all Preserved Claims without the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court, subject to the terms of sections 6.2 and 9.6 hereof, the Confirmation
Order, and any contract, instrument, release, indenture, or other agreement
entered into in connection herewith. The Reorganized Debtors or their
successor(s) may pursue such Preserved Claims, as appropriate, in accordance
with the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors or their suceessor(s) who
hold such rights. The Claims Agent shall reflect any such settlement on the
Claims Register upon notice from the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ counsel
without further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

36

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6.11    Late Claims. Any Entity filing a proof of Claim after the bar date
established by the Bankruptcy Court with respect to such Claim, shall not be
entitled to treatment as a creditor with respect to such Claim for purposes of
voting and distributions under the Plan, unless agreed to in writing by the
Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. Without further Order of the Bankruptcy Court
late Claims shall be deemed disallowed. Objections, if any, to any Claim
permitted to be filed after the relevant bar date may be objected to within 90
days of the date of the written consent to the later filing, as may be further
extended by a written agreement of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors. Any late
Claim that is deemed disallowed shall be noted on the Claims register as
disallowed by the Claims Agent upon notification by the Debtors’ or Reorganized
Debtors’ counsel.
ARTICLE VII    

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES
7.1    General Treatment. Effective as of the Effective Date, all Executory
Contracts to which any of the Debtors are parties are hereby rejected, except
for an Executory Contract that (a) has previously been assumed or rejected
pursuant to Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (b) is specifically designated
as a contract or lease to be assumed on a schedule of contracts and leases filed
and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing (which shall be in
all respects in form and substance satisfactory to the Consenting Noteholders),
(c) is the subject of a separate (i) assumption motion filed by the Debtors or
(ii) rejection motion filed by the Debtors under section 365 of the Bankruptcy
Code before the date of the Confirmation Hearing, or (d) is the subject of a
pending objection regarding assumption, proposed Cure Amount, “adequate
assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code) or other issues related to assumption of the contract or lease
(a “Cure Dispute”).
All Executory Contracts to which any of the Debtors, on the one hand, and
Medicare, Medicaid, or the Department of Veterans Affairs, on the other hand,
are parties (collectively, the “Government Contracts”) are hereby assumed as of
the Effective Date. Medicare, Medicaid and the Department of Veterans Affairs
consent to the assumption of such Government Contracts. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Plan or the Confirmation Order, the Cure Amount for
assumption of any of the Government Contracts (including Enrollment
Applications, Participating Supplier Agreements, and Competitive Bidding Program
Contracts, in each case with Medicare) shall not be a sum certain set by the
Debtors or the Bankruptcy Court.
With respect to Medicare, the Cure Amount (which shall not be subject to
estimation pursuant to Section 6.9 of this Plan) shall also include the
agreement by each of the Debtors to continue its participation in the Medicare
program in the ordinary course of business and to be governed by, and subject
to, the terms and conditions of its contracts with Medicare and the incorporated
Medicare statutes, regulations, policies and procedures, and, subject to the
Reorganized Debtors’ rights and defenses, which are expressly preserved, to
remain liable for any debt to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”)
as if the bankruptcy case had not occurred. In addition, nothing in this Plan or
Confirmation Order shall release (or operate to enjoin) any claim of the United
States of America, on behalf of CMS or the Department of Veterans Affairs,
against any of the Debtors or against any non-debtor under the Government
Contracts.

37

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of the Reorganized Debtors to contest the
assertion of Medicare, Medicaid, and/or the Department of Veterans Affairs
regarding overpayments or other amounts owed under the Government Contracts are
expressly preserved.
7.2    Determination of Cure Disputes and Deemed Consent. Following the
Commencement Date, the Debtors shall have served a notice on parties to
Executory Contracts to be assumed or rejected reflecting the Debtors’ intention
to assume or reject such contracts or leases in connection with this Plan and,
where applicable, setting forth the proposed Cure Amount (if any). With respect
to any Executory Contract listed on such notice for which no proposed Cure
Amount is set forth, the proposed Cure Amount therefor shall be $0.
To the extent that an objection to assumption, proposed Cure Amount, “adequate
assurance of future performance,” or other issues related to assumption of the
contract or lease shall have been filed within fifteen (15) days of service of
notice of intent to assume or reject, and properly served on the Debtors with
respect to the assumption of any contract or lease, then any Cure Dispute that
was not scheduled for a hearing by the Bankruptcy Court on or before the date of
the Confirmation Hearing shall be scheduled for a later date as may be
determined by the Bankruptcy Court. Following resolution of a Cure Dispute by
Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the contract or lease shall be deemed
assumed effective as of the Effective Date, provided, however, that the Debtors
reserve the right to reject any such contract or lease following entry of a
Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court resolving any such Cure Dispute, by filing a
notice indicating such rejection within five (5) Business Days of the entry of
such Final Order.
7.3    Payment of Cure Amount and Effect of Assumption of Contracts and Leases.
Subject to resolution of any Cure Dispute, any monetary amounts by which any
Executory Contract to be assumed hereunder is in default shall be satisfied,
under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by the Debtors upon assumption
thereof.
To the extent that an objection was not timely filed and properly served on the
Debtors with respect to the assumption of an Executory Contract, then the
counterparty to such contract or lease shall be deemed to have consented to (i)
the Cure Amount (plus postpetition interest calculated at the Federal Judgment
Rate if the agreement provides for interest) proposed by the Debtors and (ii)
the assumption of the applicable Executory Contract, notwithstanding any
provision of such contract that (a) prohibits, restricts or conditions the
transfer or assignment of such contract or (b) terminates or permits the
termination of a contract as a result of any direct or indirect transfer or
assignment of the rights of the Debtor under such contract or a change in the
ownership or control of any Debtor or Reorganized Debtor contemplated by this
Plan, and shall forever be barred and enjoined from asserting such objection
against the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors or terminating or modifying such
contract on account of transactions contemplated by this Plan.
Assumption of any Executory Contract pursuant to this Plan, or otherwise, shall
result in the full release and satisfaction of any Claims or defaults, subject
to satisfaction of the Cure Amount, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including
defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest
composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any assumed
Executory Contract at any time before the effective date of assumption. Any
proofs of Claim filed with respect to an Executory Contract that has been
assumed shall be deemed

38

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

disallowed and expunged, without further notice to or action, order or approval
of the Bankruptcy Court or any other Entity.
7.4    Rejection Claims. If the rejection of an Executory Contract by any of the
Debtors pursuant to this Plan results in damages to the other party or parties
to such contract or lease, a Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced
by a timely filed proof of Claim, shall be forever barred and shall not be
enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective
properties or interests in property as agents, successors or assigns, unless a
proof of Claim is filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon counsel for
the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors no later than thirty (30) days after (i)
the date of entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejection,
or (2) the date of the filing of a notice by the Debtors after the Effective
Date indicating such rejection in accordance with section 7.2 hereof. The
Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the
rejection of all the leases and contracts not identified for assumption in the
notice to be delivered pursuant to section 7.2 hereof.
7.5    Survival of the Debtors’ Indemnification Obligations. Any obligations of
the Debtors pursuant to their corporate charters, bylaws, or other
organizational documents to indemnify current and former officers, directors,
agents and/or employees with respect to all present and future actions or
omissions, suits and proceedings against the Debtors or such directors,
officers, agents and/or employees, based upon any act or omission occurring at
or prior to the Effective Date for or on behalf of the Debtors shall not be
discharged or impaired by confirmation of this Plan provided that the
Reorganized Debtors shall not indemnify officers, directors, agents and/or
employees of the Debtors for any Claims or Causes of Action arising out of or
relating to any act or omission that is a criminal act or constitutes
intentional fraud. All such obligations shall be deemed and treated as Executory
Contracts assumed by the Debtors under this Plan and shall continue as
obligations of the Reorganized Debtors. Any Claim based on the Debtors’
obligations herein shall not be a Disputed Claim or subject to any objection in
either case by reason of section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.
After the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall not terminate or
otherwise reduce the coverage under any directors’ and officers’ insurance
policies (including any “tail policy”) in effect as of Commencement Date, and
all directors and officers of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any
time before the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any
such policy for the full term of such policy regardless of whether such
directors and/or officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date.
7.6    Survival of Other Employment Arrangements. Except to the extent
previously assumed or rejected by an order of the Bankruptcy Court entered on or
before the Effective Date, all employee compensation and benefit plans entered
into before or after the Commencement Date and not since terminated shall be
deemed to be, and shall be treated as if they were, Executory Contracts assumed
pursuant to this Plan. The Debtors’ obligations under such plans and programs
shall survive confirmation of this Plan, except for (a) Executory Contracts or
employee benefit plans specifically rejected pursuant to this Plan (to the
extent such rejection does not violate sections 1114 and 1129(a)(13) of the
Bankruptcy Code) and (b) such Executory Contracts or employee benefit plans as
have previously been rejected, are the subject of a motion to reject as of the
Effective

39

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date, or have been specifically waived by the beneficiaries of any employee
benefit plan or contract. Notwithstanding anything in this section 7.6 to the
contrary, any equity incentive plans of any of the Debtors, and any stock
option, restricted stock or other equity agreements and any stock appreciation
rights or similar equity incentives or equity based incentives or other
obligations or liabilities the value of which depend on the price of, or
distributions paid with respect to, equity securities, shall be cancelled as of
the Effective Date and shall not give rise to any Allowed Claims and the
Reorganized Debtors shall have no liability or responsibility in respect of such
equity interests.
7.7    Insurance Policies. All insurance policies that have not been previously
assumed and pursuant to which the Debtors have any obligations in effect as of
the date of the Confirmation Order shall be deemed and treated as Executory
Contracts pursuant to this Plan and shall be assumed by the respective Debtors
and Reorganized Debtors and shall continue in full force and effect. All the
Debtors’ insurance policies shall revest in the Reorganized Debtors.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Plan Documents, or
the Plan Support Agreement (including, without limitation, any other provision
that purports to be preemptory or supervening or grants an injunction or
release), and provided that nothing shall be construed to prevent the
Reorganized Debtors from exercising their rights pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof
(Merger/Dissolution/Consolidation):
(d)
nothing herein alters, modifies or otherwise amends the terms and conditions of
ACE Insurance Program (including any agreement to arbitrate disputes and any
provisions regarding the provision, maintenance, use, nature and priority of the
ACE Collateral) except that on and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized
Debtors shall become and shall remain liable for all of the Debtors’ obligations
and Claims under the ACE Insurance Program, regardless of whether such
obligations and Claims arise before or after the Effective Date;

(e)
nothing herein releases or discharges (i) ACE’s security interests in and liens
on the ACE Collateral and (ii) the Claims of ACE arising from or pursuant to the
ACE Insurance Program and such Claims shall be Allowed Administrative Expense
Claims which shall be paid in full by the Debtors (or after the Effective Date,
the Reorganized Debtors) in the ordinary course of business in accordance with
the ACE Insurance Program without the need or requirement for ACE to file or
serve a request, motion, or application for payment of or proof of any
Administrative Expense Claim (and further and for the avoidance of doubt, the
Administrative Bar Date shall not be applicable to ACE); and

(f)
the automatic stay of Bankruptcy Code section 362(a) and the injunction set
forth in Article IX of this Plan, if and to the extent applicable, shall be
deemed lifted without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, solely to permit:
(A) claimants with valid workers’

40

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

compensation claims covered by the Workers’ Compensation Program to proceed with
their claims; (B) ACE to administer, handle, defend, settle, and/or pay, in the
ordinary course of business and without further order of the Bankruptcy Court,
(i) all workers’ compensation claims arising under the Workers’ Compensation
Program and the costs related thereto, (ii) all claims where a claimant asserts
a direct claim against ACE under applicable law, the claimant has been awarded a
judgment and the applicable policy contains an MCS-90 endorsement, or an order
has been entered by the Bankruptcy Court granting a claimant relief from the
automatic stay to proceed with its claim and (iii) all costs in relation to each
of the foregoing; (C) ACE to draw against any or all of the ACE Collateral
provided by or on behalf of the Debtors (or the Reorganized Debtors, as
applicable) at any time and to hold the proceeds thereof as security for the
obligations of the Debtors (and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable) to ACE
and/or apply such proceeds to the obligations of the Debtors (and the
Reorganized Debtors, as applicable) under the ACE Insurance Program, in such
order as ACE may determine; and (D) ACE to (i) cancel any policies under the ACE
Insurance Program in accordance with the terms thereof and applicable law, and
(ii) take other actions relating thereto, to the extent permissible under
applicable non-bankruptcy law, each in accordance with the terms of the ACE
Insurance Program.
Terms used in this Section 7.7 but not defined in this Plan shall have the
meaning attributed to them in that certain Order (I) Authorizing Continuation of
Insurance Programs and Payment of Prepetition Insurance Obligations, (II)
Authorizing Banks and Financial Institutions to Honor and Process Related Checks
and Transfers, (III) Authorizing Debtors’ Entry into Certain Insurance
Agreements and Assumption of Certain Prepetition Insurance Policies and
Agreements, (IV) Authorizing Debtors’ Continued Performance under Certain
Premium Financing Agreements and (V) Granting Related Relief entered by the
Bankruptcy Court on May 7, 2013 [Docket No. 229].
7.8    Workers’ Compensation Programs. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Plan, as of the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors
shall continue to honor their obligations under (i) all applicable workers’
compensation laws in states in which the Reorganized Debtors operate and (ii)
the Debtors’ written contracts, agreements, agreements of indemnity, and any
other policies, programs and plans regarding or relating to workers’
compensation and workers’ compensation insurance. All such contracts and
agreements that have not been previously assumed are treated as Executory
Contracts under this Plan and on the Effective Date will be assumed pursuant to
the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, with a Cure
Amount of $0.
7.9    Carter Claim. On or prior to the Effective Date, Philip L. Carter shall
agree to (i) amend Section 6.7 of that certain Second Amended and Restated
Employment Agreement, dated

41

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

August 6, 2008, between Rotech and Philip L. Carter (including any prior
amendments thereto) to increase the period following the termination of his
employment during which he shall be bound by the covenant contained in such
section from eighteen (18) months to two (2) years, (ii) reduce the amount due
and owing as of July 1, 2013 by seventy percent (70%), (iii) relinquish to the
Reorganized Debtors the automobile Rotech provided for him, and Rotech shall
assume such agreement as so amended (including the continuation of health
insurance through the end of calendar year 2013).
7.10    Reservation of Rights. Neither the exclusion nor inclusion of any
contract or lease by the Debtors on any exhibit, schedule or other annex to this
Plan or in the Plan Supplement, nor anything contained in this Plan, will
constitute an admission by the Debtors that any such contract or lease is or is
not in fact an Executory Contract or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors
or their respective affiliates has any liability thereunder. Nothing in this
Plan shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish or otherwise alter any of the
defenses, Claims, Causes of Action or other rights of the Debtors and the
Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non executory contract or any
unexpired or expired lease. Nothing in this Plan will increase, augment, or add
to any of the duties, obligations, responsibilities or liabilities of the
Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors under any executory or non executory contract
or any unexpired or expired lease.
ARTICLE VIII

Board of Directors. Upon and following the Effective Date, the New Board and the
boards of directors for each of the Reorganized Debtors shall be comprised of
five (5) directors as determined by the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders. Such
directors shall serve in accordance with applicable non-bankruptcy law. The
members of the New Board and the new boards of each of the Reorganized Guarantor
Debtors will be identified no later than ten (10) days before the Confirmation
Hearing in accordance with section 1129(a)(5) of the Bankruptcy Code. On the
Effective Date, the terms of the current members of each of the boards of
directors of the Debtors shall expire or sever.
Directors and Officers of the Reorganized Debtors. Except as otherwise provided
in the Plan Supplement or as determined by the Consenting Second Lien
Noteholders no later than ten (10) days prior to the last date by which holders
of Impaired Claims may vote to accept or reject this Plan, the officers of the
respective Reorganized Debtors immediately before the Effective Date shall serve
as the initial officers of each of the respective Reorganized Debtors on or
after the Effective Date and in accordance with their respective employment
agreements with the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, assumed in accordance with
this section, and applicable non‑bankruptcy law. After the Effective Date, the
selection of officers of the Reorganized Debtors shall be as provided by their
respective organizational documents and the terms on which such officers shall
be employed by the Reorganized Debtors shall be negotiated by the New Board and
the new boards of each of the Reorganized Guarantor Debtors; provided, however,
that on the Confirmation Date the employment agreement for each officer, at his
or her option (such option to be exercised by each such officer no

42

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

later than ten (10) days prior to the last date by which holders of Impaired
Claims may vote to accept or reject this Plan), shall be assumed and modified in
writing as provided in the next sentence and, if assumed, shall be fully binding
and enforceable until such employment agreement is terminated according to its
terms and/or a new employment agreement becomes effective. As of the Effective
Date and subject to the first sentence of this paragraph, holders of
Employment-Related Claims who opt to have the employment agreement assumed shall
exercise their respective option by forever waiving in signed writings such
Claims in respect of this Plan and the transactions contemplated in connection
herewith and the Debtors shall assume the underlying employment agreements
related to such Claims as so modified.
8.2    Management Equity Incentive Program. Subject only to the occurrence of
the Effective Date, the Management Equity Incentive Program shall be effective
without any further action by the Reorganized Debtors. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Management Equity Incentive Program is an entirely post-Effective

made by the Reorganized Debtors after the Effective Date.
8.3    Merger/Dissolution/Consolidation. On the Effective Date or as soon as

the Reorganized Debtors, dissolved or otherwise consolidated, (ii) cause the
transfer of assets between or among the Reorganized Debtors, or (iii) engage in
any other transaction in furtherance of the implementation of this Plan.
8.4    Amendment of Governance Documents. The respective Governance Documents of
the Debtors shall be amended as of the Effective Date to be substantially in the
form of the Reorganized Debtors’ Certificate of Incorporation, the Reorganized
Debtors’ Bylaws and the Reorganized Debtors’ LLC Agreement, as applicable. The
Governance Documents will be attached as Schedules of the Plan Supplement and
contain provisions (i) prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity securities,
as required by section 1123(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code (subject to further
amendment of such certificates or articles of incorporation and bylaws, or other
Governance Documents, as permitted by applicable law), and (ii) effectuating the
provisions of this Plan.
8.5    Corporate Action. On the Effective Date, the adoption of the Reorganized
Debtors’ respective amended Governance Documents shall be authorized and
approved in all respects, in each case without further action under applicable
law, regulation, order, or rule, including, without limitation, any action by
the stockholders or directors of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors. All
other matters provided under this Plan involving the corporate structure of the
Reorganized Debtors or corporate action by the Reorganized Debtors shall be
deemed to have occurred, be authorized, and shall be in effect without requiring
further action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule, including,
without limitation, any action by the stockholders or directors of the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors. Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the
Confirmation Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors may take any and all
actions deemed appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.
8.6    Corporate Authority of the Reorganized Debtors. On the Effective Date, or
as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Reorganized Debtors may take
all actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effect any transaction
described in, approved by, contemplated by, or

43

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

necessary or appropriate to effectuate this Plan, including without limitation:
(1) causing the Disbursing Agent to make Distributions under this Plan; (2) the
execution and delivery of appropriate agreements or other documents of merger,
consolidation, conversion, or reorganization containing terms that are
consistent with the terms of this Plan and that satisfy the requirements of
applicable law; (3) the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of
transfer, assignment, assumption, or delegation of any property, right,
liability, duty, or obligation on terms consistent with the terms of this Plan;
(4) the execution and delivery of the Exit Financing Documents and any
documents, agreements or instruments related thereto; and (5) the execution and

ARTICLE IX    

EFFECT OF CONFIRMATION
9.1    Revesting of Assets. Upon the Effective Date, pursuant to sections
1141(b) and (c) of the Bankruptcy Code, all property of the Estates of the
Debtors shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors free and clear of all Claims,
Liens, Encumbrances, charges, and other interests created prior to the Effective
Date, except as provided in this Plan and this Plan Documents. Except as
otherwise provided in this Plan, each of the Debtors, as Reorganized Debtors,
shall continue to exist on and after the Effective Date as a separate legal
Entity with all of the powers available to such legal Entity under applicable
law, without prejudice to any right to alter or terminate such existence
(whether by merger or otherwise) in accordance with such applicable law. From
and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may operate their

restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules in all respects as
if there were no pending cases under the Bankruptcy Code, except as provided
herein.
9.2    Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided in section 1141(d)(3) of the
Bankruptcy Code and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, on and
after the Confirmation Date, the provisions of this Plan shall bind any holder
of a Claim against, or Equity Interest in, the Debtors, and such holder’s
respective successors and assigns, whether or not the Claim or Equity Interest
of such holder is impaired under this Plan and whether or not such holder has
accepted this Plan.
9.3    Discharge of Claims and Termination of Equity Interests. Except as
otherwise provided in this Plan, effective as of the Effective Date: (a) all
Claims and Equity Interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest
accrued on such Claims from and after the Commencement Date, against the Debtors
or any of their assets, property or Estates shall be discharged without further
notice or order; (b) this Plan shall bind all holders of Claims and Equity
Interests, notwithstanding whether any such holders failed to vote to accept or
reject this Plan or voted to reject this Plan; (c) except as otherwise provided
herein, all Claims and Equity Interests shall be discharged and released in
full, and the Debtors’ liability with respect thereto shall be extinguished
completely, including any liability of the kind specified under section 502(g)
of the Bankruptcy Code; and (d) all Entities shall be enjoined from asserting
against the Debtors, the Debtors’ Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, their
successors and assigns and their assets and properties any other Claims or
Equity Interests based upon any documents, instruments or any act or omission,
transaction

44

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred before the Effective Date.
The definition of “Claims” in the Plan includes the Bankruptcy Code’s
definition, and also expands the definition to include all equitable rights,
regardless of whether they give rise to rights to payment for breach of
performance. WITHOUT LIMITATION, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RIGHTS OF SETOFF AND RECOUPMENT ARE DISCHARGED AND
ANY PARTY WISHING TO PRESERVE ITS SETOFF AND/OR RECOUPMENT RIGHTS, MUST FILE,

SUCH PROOF OF CLAIM OR AMENDMENT THERETO.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or the Confirmation Order, all
of the United States of America’s setoff and/or recoupment rights, if any, are
expressly preserved. With respect to the United States of America, nothing in
this Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be construed to enlarge the discharge
beyond what is provided in section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or 18 U.S.C. §
3613.
9.4    Term of Injunctions or Stays. Unless otherwise provided by court order,
all injunctions or stays arising under or entered during the Chapter 11 Cases
under section 105 or 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, and in existence
on the Confirmation Date, shall remain in full force and effect until the later
of the Effective Date and the date indicated in the order providing for such
injunction or stay.
9.5    Injunction Against Interference with Plan. From and after the Effective
Date, all Entities are permanently enjoined from commencing or continuing in any
manner, any suit, action or other proceeding, on account of or respecting any
Claim, demand, liability, obligation, debt, right, Cause of Action, interest or
remedy released or to be released pursuant to this Plan or the Confirmation
Order.
9.6    Releases by the Debtors. As of the Effective Date, and in consideration
for good and valuable consideration, including the obligations of the Debtors
under this Plan and the contributions of the Released Parties to facilitate and
implement this Plan, on and after the Effective Date, the Released Parties are
deemed released and discharged by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and the
Estates from any and all claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of
Action, remedies and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative claims,
asserted or assertable on behalf of the Debtors, whether known or unknown,
foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity or

or Equity Interest or other Entity, based on or relating to, or in any manner
arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the
purchase, sale or rescission of the purchase or sale of any security of the

Date, and in consideration for good and valuable consideration, including the
obligations of the Debtors under this Plan and the contributions of the Released
Parties to facilitate and implement this Plan, each holder of a Claim against or
Equity Interest in any of the Debtors who either voted in favor of, or is
conclusively presumed to have accepted, this Plan, shall be deemed to have
conclusively, absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably and forever, released and
discharged the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors and the Released Parties from
any and all claims, interests, obligations, rights, suits, damages, Causes of
Action, remedies and liabilities whatsoever, including any derivative claims
asserted on behalf of a Debtor, whether known or unknown, foreseen or
unforeseen, existing or hereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise, that
such Entity would have been legally entitled to assert (whether individually or
collectively), based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole
or in part, the Debtors, the Chapter 11 Cases, the purchase, sale or rescission

13.2    Withholding and Reporting Requirements. In connection with this Plan and
all instruments issued in connection therewith and distributed thereon, the

governmental unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on
account of such Distribution. Any party issuing any instrument or making any

to such issuing or disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations.

51

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13.3    Exemption from Transfer Taxes. Pursuant to section 1146(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code, the issuance, transfer or exchange of notes, equity interests
or other plan securities pursuant to this Plan or any documents thereunder, 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
this Plan or any documents thereunder, shall not be subject to any stamp, real

foregoing instruments or other documents without the payment of any such tax or
government assessment.
13.4    Expedited Tax Determination. The Reorganized Debtors are entitled to an
expedited determination of taxes under section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy Code for
all returns filed for, or on behalf of, the Debtors for any and all taxable
periods ending after the Commencement Date through, and including, the Effective
Date.
13.5    Payment of Statutory Fees. All fees payable pursuant to section 1930 of
title 28 of the United States Code, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court at the
Confirmation Hearing, shall be paid by the Debtors on or before the Effective
Date, and Debtors shall continue to remit payments in accordance with such
statute following the Effective Date to the extent required until entry of a
final decree closing the cases. In addition, the Reorganized Debtors shall file
post-confirmation quarterly reports or any pre-confirmation monthly operating
reports not filed as of the Confirmation Hearing in conformity with the U.S.
Trustee guidelines, until entry of an order closing or converting the cases. The

quarterly fees, which shall be deemed an Administrative Expense Claim against
the Debtors and their Estates.
13.6    Post-Confirmation Date Professional Fees and Expenses. The Reorganized
Debtors shall, in the ordinary course of business and without the necessity for
any approval by the Bankruptcy Court, pay the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket
expenses of professional persons incurred from and after the Effective Date by
the Reorganized Debtors.
13.7    Trustee Claims. The Reorganized Debtors shall pay the Trustee Claims (a)
on the Effective Date in respect of outstanding invoices submitted on or prior
to the tenth business day immediately preceding the Effective Date, and (b)
within ten (10) business days following receipt by the Reorganized Debtors of
the applicable invoice, in respect of invoices submitted after the tenth
Business Day immediately preceding the Effective Date; provided, however, that
to receive payment pursuant to this section 13.7, each Trustee shall provide
reasonable and customary detail (which may be redacted to protect privileged or
confidential information) along with or as part of all invoices submitted in
support of its respective Trustee Claims to the attorneys for the Reorganized
Debtors, the First Lien Noteholders, the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders and
the United States Trustee. The Reorganized Debtors, the First Lien Noteholders,
the Consenting Second Lien Noteholders and the United States Trustee shall have
the right to file objections to such Claims based on a “reasonableness” standard
within ten (10) days after receipt of such invoices, including supporting
documentation. To the extent it has jurisdiction, any disputed amount of such
Claims shall be subject to the jurisdiction of, and resolution by, the
Bankruptcy Court. If an objection is

52

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

timely filed to a Trustee Claim, the Bankruptcy Court shall hold a hearing on
notice to determine the reasonableness of such Claim. Upon payment of such
Trustee Claims in full or by resolution of the Bankruptcy Court, each such
Trustee will be deemed to have released its lien and priority rights for its
fees and expenses under the respective indenture or loan agreement solely to the
extent of such Claims.
13.8    Plan Supplement. A substantially final form of the documents to be
included in the Plan Supplement shall be filed with the clerk of the Bankruptcy
Court and posted to the website of Epiq Bankruptcy Solutions, LLC,

accept or reject this Plan. Upon its filing with the clerk of the Bankruptcy
Court, the Plan Supplement may be inspected in the office of the clerk of the
Bankruptcy Court during normal court hours.

Bankruptcy Code once the Reorganized Rotech Common Stock has been delivered to
the holders of the Second Lien Notes Claims.

consent of the Debtors and the Consenting Noteholders, 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. Notwithstanding
any such holding, alteration or interpretation, the remainder of the terms and
provisions of this Plan or the Plan Documents as the case may be, shall remain
in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated by such holding, alteration or interpretation. The Confirmation
Order shall constitute a judicial determination and shall provide that each term
and provision of this Plan and the Plan Documents, as it may have been altered
or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable
pursuant to its terms.
13.11    Governing Law. Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other
federal law is applicable, or to the extent that an exhibit hereto or document
contained in the Plan Supplement provides otherwise, the rights, duties and

inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect
to principles of conflicts of laws.

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE OF THE FOLLOWING:
1.Confirmation of the Plan. Rotech Healthcare Inc. (“Rotech”) and its title 11
subsidiaries listed in Schedule 1 to the Plan as chapter 11 debtors and debtors
in possession in the above-captioned chapter 11 cases commenced under title 11
of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) hereby give notice that the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy
Court”) entered an order (the “Confirmation Order”) [Docket No. ___] confirming
the Debtors’ Second Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan, dated June 13, 2013 (the
“Plan”). 2 The Confirmation Date is August [__], 2013.
2.Effective Date. The Effective Date of the Plan is scheduled to be [________,
2013]; provided, however, the Effective Date may be changed as authorized by the
Plan. If the Effective Date of the Plan occurs on a date other than [________,
2013], you will receive additional notice of the deadlines set forth in
Paragraphs 5 and 6 herein, below.
3.Effect of the Occurrence of the Effective Date. Upon the occurrence of the
Effective Date, in accordance with and not in limitation of sections 524 and
1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as provided in the Plan, the
Confirmation Order, or other applicable order of the Bankruptcy Court:
a.
All Claims and Equity Interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest
accrued on such Claims from and after the Commencement Date, against the Debtors
or any of their assets, property, or Estates shall be discharged without further
notice or order;

1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases are listed in Schedule 1 and at
http://dmepiqll.com/rotech. The addresses of the corporate headquarters of the
Debtors and the mailing address of each of the Debtors is 2600 Technology Drive,
Suite 300, Orlando, FL 32804.
2 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

b.
The Plan shall bind all holders of Claims and Equity Interests, notwithstanding
whether any such holders failed to vote to accept or reject the Plan or voted to
reject the Plan;

c.
Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, all Claims and Equity Interests shall
be discharged and released in full, and the Debtors’ liability with respect
thereto shall be extinguished completely, including any liability of the kind
specified under section 502(g) of the Bankruptcy Code;

d.
All Entities shall be enjoined from asserting against the Debtors, the Debtors’
Estates, the Reorganized Debtors, their successors and assigns and their assets
and properties any other Claims or Equity Interests based upon any documents,
instruments, or any act or omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind
or nature that occurred before the Effective Date;

e.
Without limitation, except with respect to the United States of America as
provided in the Plan, rights of setoff and recoupment are discharged and any
party wishing to preserve its setoff and/or recoupment rights must: (1) file,
prior to the Confirmation Date, a motion for relief from the automatic stay
seeking the authority to effectuate such a setoff right; or (2) have timely
filed a proof of claim with the Court preserving such setoff and/or recoupment
rights in such proof of claim or amendment thereto; and

f.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or Confirmation Order, all of
the United States of America’s setoff and/or recoupment rights, if any, are
expressly preserved. With respect to the United States of America, nothing in
the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall be construed to enlarge the discharge
beyond what is provided in section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code and 18 U.S.C.
§ 3613.

4.    Record Date. The Distribution Record Date, or the record date for purposes
of receiving Distributions under the Plan, shall be August [__], 2013, the date
of entry of the Confirmation Order.
5.    Administrative Bar Date. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, (i) any
and all requests for payment or proofs of Administrative Expense Claims must be
filed and served on the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, at the
addresses set forth in Section 13.14 of the Plan, no later than (a) three (3)
days prior to the Confirmation Hearing for Administrative Expense Claims (other
than trade vendor Claims for goods and services sold to the Debtors in the
ordinary course of business and Professional Claims) arising during the period
commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing through and including the
date that is seven (7) days prior to the date for the Confirmation Hearing, and
(b) three (3) days after the Effective Date for

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Administrative Expense Claims (other than trade vendor Claims for goods and
services sold to the Debtors and Professional Claims) arising during the period
commencing after the date that is seven (7) days prior to the date for the
Confirmation Hearing (the “Administrative Bar Date”); and (ii) if not such
request is timely filed and served, such Administrative Expense Claim shall be
forever barred and shall not be enforceable against any of the Debtors and their
Estates or any of the Reorganized Debtors. Unless an objection to an
Administrative Expense Claim is filed and served on the claimant no later than
sixty (60) days after the applicable Administrative Bar Date, which date for
filing and serving an objection may be extended by application to the Bankruptcy
Court, such Administrative Expense Claim shall be deemed Allowed in the amount
requested. If an objection is filed to an Administrative Expense Claim, the
Bankruptcy Court shall determine the Allowed amount of such Administrative
Expense Claim; provided, however, that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors,
as applicable, and the applicant may resolve such objection by stipulation,
without further action of the Bankruptcy Court. For the avoidance of doubt, any
Claims for adequate protection payments set forth in the Bankruptcy Court order
authorizing the Debtors’ entry into the DIP Credit Agreement shall be exempt
from the Administrative Bar Date without the filing of any request for payment
or proof of Administrative Expense Claim.
6.    Compensation of Professionals – Bar Date. All holders of a Claim for an
award by the Bankruptcy Court of compensation for services rendered or
reimbursement of expenses incurred through and including the Effective Date
pursuant to sections 503(b)(2), 503(b)(3), 503(b)(4), or 503(b)(5) of the
Bankruptcy Code shall (i) file their respective final applications for
allowances of compensation for services rendered and reimbursement of expenses
incurred through the Effective Date by [______, 2013], which is the date that is
no later than forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date (the “Professional
Fees Bar Date”), and (ii) if granted such an award by the Bankruptcy Court, be
paid in full in such amounts as are Allowed by the Bankruptcy Court to the
extent not previously paid in full in such amounts as are Allowed by the
Bankruptcy Court to the extent not previously paid by prior order of the
Bankruptcy Court (a) on the date on which such Claim becomes an Allowed Claim,
or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, or (b) upon such other terms
as may be mutually agreed upon between such holder of an Allowed Claim and the
Reorganized Debtors.
7.    Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. Pursuant to Section 7.1 of the
Plan, all Executory Contracts to which any of the Debtors are parties shall be
rejected, except for an Executory Contract that (a) has previously been assumed
or rejected pursuant to Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (b) is specifically
designated as a contract or lease to be assumed on a schedule of contracts and
leases filed and served prior to commencement of the Confirmation Hearing (which
shall be in all respects in form and substance satisfactory to the Consenting
Noteholders), (c) is the subject of a separate (i) assumption motion filed by
the Debtors or (ii) rejection motion filed by the Debtors under section 365 of
the Bankruptcy Code before the date of the Confirmation Hearing, or (d) is the
subject of a pending objection regarding assumption, proposed Cure Amount,
“adequate assurance of future performance” (within the meaning of section 365 of
the Bankruptcy Code) or other issues related to assumption of the contract or
lease (a “Cure Dispute”). All Executory Contracts to which any of the Debtors,
on the one hand, and Medicare, Medicaid, or the Department of Veterans Affairs,
on the other hand, are parties (collectively, the “Government Contracts”) shall
be assumed as of the Effective Date.

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8.    Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases – Bar Date. If the
rejection of an Executory Contract by any of the Debtors pursuant to the Plan
results in damages to the other party or parties to such Executory Contract, a
Claim for such damages, if not heretofore evidenced by a timely filed proof of
Claim shall be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors
or the Reorganized Debtors, or their respective properties or interests in
property as agents, successors, or assigns, unless a proof of Claim is filed
with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon counsel for the Debtors and the
Reorganized Debtors no later than thirty (30) days after (i) the date of entry
of an order by the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejection, or (ii) the date
of the filing of an notice by the Debtors after the Effective Date indicating
such rejection in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Plan (the “Contract
Rejection Bar Date”). The Confirmation Order constitutes the Bankruptcy Court’s
approval of the rejection of all the Executory Contracts not identified for
assumption in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Plan. To the
extent any non-debtor counterparty objects to the rejection of an Executory
Contract on any other basis, such objection must be filed with the Court and
served on the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, at the addresses in
Section 13.14 of the Plan, so as to be received by the Debtors or Reorganized
Debtors, as applicable, on or before the Contract Rejection Bar Date. Nothing
herein shall prejudice the rights of the non-debtor party or the Debtors in
respect of any assertion that a rejected contract was executory, was terminated
prior to rejection or the nature or calculation of any damages with respect
thereto.
9.    Enforcement of Bar Dates. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, any
Entity that fails to file a proof of Claim on or before the Administrative
Expense Claims Bar Date, Professional Fees Bar Date, or Contract Rejection Bar
Date, or any other bar dates established in these Chapter 11 Cases
(collectively, the “Bar Dates”), or was not otherwise permitted to file a proof
of claim after the applicable Bar Date by a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court,
is and shall be barred, estopped, and enjoined from asserting any such Claim
against the Debtors.
10.    Copies of the Plan and Confirmation Order. Copies of the Confirmation
Order, the Plan, and related documents are available at
http://dm.epiq11.com/rotech or the Bankruptcy Court’s website at
http://www.deb.uscourts.gov. To access documents on the Bankruptcy Court’s
website, you will need a PACER password and login, which can be obtained at
http://pacer.psc.uscourts.gov. In addition, the Confirmation Order and the Plan
are available for inspection during regular business hours in the office of the
Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, 824 North Market Street, 3rd Floor, Wilmington,
Delaware 19801.

Effective Date, the Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Debtors, the holders of Claims and Equity Interests, and their respective
successors and assigns, including, without limitation, the Reorganized Debtors.
