      SECTION 5. MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION

            5.1. SUBSTANTIVE CONSOLIDATION OF THE DEBTORS.

            (a) Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the approval,
pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, effective as of the Effective
Date, of the substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors for all
purposes related to the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation,
for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution. On and after the
Effective Date, (i) all assets and liabilities of the Consolidated Debtors shall
be treated, for purposes of the Plan of Reorganization, including, without
limitation, for purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution, as though
they were merged, (ii) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of
Reorganization on account of any Equity Interest held by a Consolidated Debtor
in any other Consolidated Debtor, (iii) all guarantees of any Consolidated
Debtor of the obligations of any other Consolidated Debtor shall be eliminated
so that any Claim against any Consolidated Debtor and any guarantee thereof
executed by any other Consolidated Debtor and any joint or several liability of
any of the Consolidated Debtors shall be one obligation of the Consolidated
Debtors and (iv) each and every Claim filed or to be filed in the Reorganization
Cases of any of the Consolidated Debtors shall be deemed filed against the
Consolidated Debtors and shall be one Claim against and obligation of the
Consolidated Debtors.

            (b) Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the approval,
pursuant to section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, effective as of the Effective
Date, of the substantive consolidation of Consolidated Orion for all purposes
related to the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for
purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution. On and after the Effective
Date, (i) all assets and liabilities of Consolidated Orion shall be treated, for
purposes of the Plan of Reorganization, including, without limitation, for
purposes of voting, confirmation, and distribution, as though they were merged,
(ii) no distributions shall be made under the Plan of Reorganization on account
of any Equity Interest held by Consolidated Orion in any of Orion or its Debtor
subsidiaries, (iii) all guarantees of Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries of any of
Consolidated Orion shall be eliminated so that any Claim against Consolidated
Orion and any guarantee thereof executed by Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries and
any joint or several liability of any of Orion and its Debtor subsidiaries shall
be one obligation of Consolidated Orion and (iv) each and every Claim filed or
to be filed in the Reorganization Cases of Orion or its Debtor subsidiaries
shall be deemed filed against Consolidated Orion and shall be one Claim against
and obligation of Consolidated Orion.

            The substantive consolidation effected pursuant to Subsections
5.1(a) and 5.1(b) shall not (other than for purposes related to funding
distributions under the Plan of Reorganization and as set forth above in such
sections) affect: (i) the legal and organizational structure of the Debtors;
(ii) pre and post-Commencement Date guarantees, Liens, and security interests
that are required to be maintained (A) in

                                       19
<PAGE>

connection with executory contracts or unexpired leases that were entered into
during the Reorganization Cases or that have been or will be assumed or (B)
pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization; or (iii) distributions out of any
insurance policies or proceeds of such policies.

            5.2. COMPROMISE AND SETTLEMENT.

            The Debtors allege that substantive consolidation of the
Consolidated Debtors is appropriate. Certain holders of Loral General Unsecured
Claims dispute this allegation. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019, Alternative A
in Subsection 4.5(a) and Alternative A in Subsection 4.6(a) of the Plan of
Reorganization effect a proposed compromise and settlement of issues relating to
the substantive consolidation of the Consolidated Debtors, the designated value
of the New Loral Common Stock for Plan of Reorganization purposes, and the
assumed enterprise and equity values of the Reorganized Debtors. In order to
resolve the dispute, holders of Loral General Unsecured Claims will receive a
distribution premium pursuant to Alternative A in Subsection 4.5(a) of the Plan
of Reorganization, as compared to Alternative B, if Class 5 accepts the Plan of
Reorganization.

            5.3. RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTIONS.

            (a) On the Effective Date, and in accordance with the terms of an
order of the Supreme Court of Bermuda, the assets of Ltd. and Licensing Ltd.
(including, without limitation, the Debtor Intercompany Claim against Loral
Corp., subject to possible reduction in amount in accordance with Section 5.7 of
the Plan of Reorganization) shall be transferred to New Loral or a wholly-owned
first-tier subsidiary of New Loral in exchange for the New Loral Common Stock to
be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims against Ltd. and Licensing Ltd.
pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization.

            (b) On or as of the Effective Date, or as soon thereafter as
practicable, within the discretion of the Debtors, but subject to the consent of
the Creditors' Committee, and without further motion to or order of the
Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors may, notwithstanding any other transactions
described in this Section 5.3, merge, dissolve, transfer assets, or otherwise
consolidate any of the Debtors in furtherance of the Plan of Reorganization
(including, without limitation, into one or more newly formed, wholly owned,
direct or indirect subsidiaries of New Loral). It is the current intention of
the Debtors to utilize this provision to merge, dissolve, or otherwise
consolidate certain of their affiliates and transfer certain executory
contracts, unexpired leases, and other assets to the surviving affiliates. Any
such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without
any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the
Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors. A list of the subsidiaries
that will be merged or dissolved and the assets to be transferred, will be
included in the Plan Supplement, and may include : (i) the merger, dissolution
or consolidation into New FSS of certain of the subsidiaries of Loral Corp.
other than SS/L and its respective subsidiaries; and (ii) the merger,
dissolution or consolidation into New SS/L of certain of the subsidiaries of
SS/L.

            5.4. CANCELLATION AND SURRENDER OF EXISTING SECURITIES AND
AGREEMENTS.

            (a) Except (i) as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan of
Reorganization, (ii) with respect to executory contracts or unexpired leases
that have been assumed by the Debtors, (iii) for purposes of evidencing a right
to distributions under the Plan of Reorganization, or (iv) with respect to any
Claim that is reinstated and rendered unimpaired under the Plan of
Reorganization, on the Effective Date, the promissory notes, share certificates,
Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, Orion Stub Notes, the Indentures and other
instruments evidencing any Claims or Equity Interests shall be deemed
automatically cancelled without further act or action under any applicable
agreement, law, regulation, order or rule and the obligations of the Debtors
under the agreements, indentures, and certificates of designations governing
such Claims and Equity Interests, as the case may be, shall be discharged;

                                       20
<PAGE>

provided, however, that the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, Orion Stub Notes and
the Indentures shall continue in effect solely for the purposes of (i) allowing
the noteholders to receive their distributions under the Plan of Reorganization,
(ii) allowing the Indenture Trustee to make the distributions, if any, to be
made on account of the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes and Orion Stub Notes and
(iii) permitting each Indenture Trustee to assert its Charging Lien against such
distributions for payment of the Indenture Trustee Fees.

            (b) Each holder of the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes or Orion Stub
Notes shall surrender such note(s) to the pertinent Indenture Trustee, or in the
event such note(s) are held in the name of, or by a nominee of, the Depository
Trust Company, the Debtors shall seek the cooperation of the Depository Trust
Company to provide appropriate instructions to the pertinent Indenture Trustee.
No distributions hereunder shall be made for or on behalf of any such holder
unless and until such note is received by the Indenture Trustee or appropriate
instructions from the Depository Trust Company shall be received by the
respective Indenture Trustee, or the loss, theft or destruction of such note is
established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee, which
satisfaction may require such holder to (i) submit a lost instrument affidavit
and an indemnity bond and (ii) hold the Debtors and the Indenture Trustees
harmless in respect of such note and any distributions made in respect thereof.
Upon compliance with this section by a holder of any note, such holder shall,
for all purposes under this Plan of Reorganization, be deemed to have
surrendered such note. Any holder of Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes, or Orion Stub
Notes that fails to surrender such note or satisfactorily explain its
non-availability to the applicable Indenture Trustee within one (1) year of the
Effective Date shall be deemed to have no further Claim against the Debtors, or
their property or the applicable Indenture Trustee in respect of such Claim and
shall not participate in any distribution hereunder, and the distribution that
would have otherwise been made to such holder shall be distributed by the
applicable Indenture Trustee to all holders who have surrendered their notes or
satisfactorily explained their non-availability to the applicable Indenture
Trustee within one (1) year after the Effective Date.

            5.5. SECTION 1145 EXEMPTION.

            To the maximum extent provided by section 1145 of the Bankruptcy
Code and applicable nonbankruptcy law, the issuance under the Plan of
Reorganization of the New Loral Common Stock, the New FSS Notes, the
Subscription Rights and the Additional New FSS Notes will be exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and all rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder.

            5.6. HART-SCOTT-RODINO COMPLIANCE.

            Any shares of New Loral Common Stock to be distributed under the
Plan of Reorganization to any entity required to file a Premerger Notification
and Report Form under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976,
as amended, shall not be distributed until the notification and waiting periods
applicable under such Act to such entity shall have expired or been terminated.

            5.7. DEBTOR INTERCOMPANY CLAIMS.

            All Debtor Intercompany Claims shall be reviewed by the Debtors, in
consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the Reorganized Debtors and
adjusted, continued, or discharged by the Debtors, with the consent of the
Creditors' Committee, or the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion. Any
such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without
any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the
Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors.

            5.8. NON-DEBTOR INTERCOMPANY CLAIMS.

            All Non-Debtor Intercompany Claims shall be reviewed by the Debtors,
in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the Reorganized Debtors and

Creditors' Committee, or the Reorganized Debtors, in their sole discretion. Any
such transaction may be effected on or subsequent to the Effective Date without
any further action by the stockholders or directors of any of the Debtors, the
Debtors in Possession, or the Reorganized Debtors.

      SECTION 6. VOTING AND DISTRIBUTIONS

            6.1. VOTING OF CLAIMS.

            Each holder of an Allowed Claim in an impaired Class of Claims that
is entitled to vote on the Plan of Reorganization pursuant to Section 3 of the
Plan of Reorganization shall be entitled to vote separately to accept or reject
the Plan of Reorganization 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 the Plan of Reorganization, or any other
order or orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

            6.2. NONCONSENSUAL CONFIRMATION.

            If any impaired class of Claims entitled to vote shall not accept
the Plan of Reorganization by the requisite statutory majority provided in
section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors reserve the right to
undertake to have the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan of Reorganization under
section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors intend to undertake to have
the Bankruptcy Court confirm the Plan of Reorganization under section 1129(b) of
the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Class 6, Class 7 and Class 8.

            6.3. DISTRIBUTION RECORD DATE.

            The Distribution Record Date with respect to any Claims other than
Note Claims shall be the Effective Date. On the Distribution Record Date the
claims register shall be closed and any transfer of any Claim therein shall be
prohibited. New Loral and any party responsible for making distributions
pursuant to Section 6.6 of the Plan of Reorganization shall instead be
authorized and entitled to recognize and deal for all purposes under the Plan of
Reorganization with only those record holders stated on the claims register as
of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. With respect to any
Note Claims, distributions under the Plan shall be made pursuant to a letter of
transmittal, as outlined in Section 5.4 of the Plan of Reorganization, as soon
as practicable after the Effective Date.

            6.4. DATE OF DISTRIBUTIONS.

            Unless otherwise provided herein, any distributions and deliveries
to be made hereunder shall occur on the Effective Date or as soon thereafter as
is practicable. In the event that any payment or act under the Plan of
Reorganization is required to be made or performed on a date that is not a
Business Day, then the making of such payment or the performance of such act may
be completed on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the next succeeding
Business Day, but shall be deemed to have been completed as of the required
date.

            6.5. DISBURSING AGENT.

            All distributions under the Plan of Reorganization shall be made by
New Loral (or such other entity designated by New Loral), as Disbursing Agent,
on or after the Effective Date or under Section 6.6 of the Plan of
Reorganization. Each Indenture Trustee, or such other entity designated by the
Indenture Trustee, shall be the disbursing agent for its respective Note Claims.
A Disbursing Agent, or any disbursing agent designated by the Indenture Trustee
for its respective Note Claims, shall not be required to give any bond or surety
or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by
the Bankruptcy Court, and, in the event that a Disbursing Agent, or any
disbursing agent designated by the Indenture Trustee for its respective Note
Claims, is so ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring any such bond or
surety shall be borne by New Loral.

            6.6. DELIVERY OF DISTRIBUTIONS.

            (a) General. Subject to Bankruptcy Rule 9010, all distributions to
holders of Allowed Claims shall be made at the address of the holder thereof as
set forth on the Schedules filed with the Bankruptcy Court or on the books and
records of the Debtors or their agents or in a letter of transmittal unless the
Debtors have been notified in writing of a change of address, including, without
limitation, by the filing of a proof of claim by such holder that contains an
address for such holder different from the address reflected on such Schedules
for such holder.

            New Loral shall deliver all distributions in respect of Allowed Ltd.
Note Claims, Allowed Orion 10% Note Claims and Allowed Orion Stub Note Claims to
the respective Indenture Trustee for the Ltd. Notes, the Orion 10% Notes and the
Orion Stub Notes or such other entity designated by the Indenture Trustee as the
disbursing agent under the Ltd. Notes, Orion 10% Notes and the Orion Stub Notes.
Upon delivery of the foregoing distributions to the Indenture Trustee or such
designee, New Loral shall be released of all liability with respect to the
delivery of such distributions. The distributions to be made under the Plan of
Reorganization to holders of Allowed Note Claims shall be made to the respective
Indenture Trustee or its designee, which, subject to the right of such Indenture
Trustee to assert its Charging Lien against such distributions, shall transmit
the distributions to the holders of such Allowed Note Claims. New Loral shall
provide whatever reasonable assistance may be required by the Indenture Trustees
or their designees with respect to such distributions.

            With respect to holders of all Claims except Note Claims, on the
Distribution Record Date, the claims register shall be closed and any transfer
of any Claim therein shall be prohibited. The Debtors and New Loral shall have
no obligation to recognize any transfer of any Claims occurring after the close
of business after such date.

            (b) Withholding and Reporting Requirements. In connection with the
Plan of Reorganization and all instruments issued in connection therewith and
distributed thereon, any party issuing any instrument or making any distribution
under the Plan of Reorganization, including any party described in Section 6.5
above, shall comply with all applicable withholding and reporting requirements
imposed by any federal, state or local taxing authority, and all distributions
under the Plan of Reorganization shall be subject to any such withholding or
reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the above, each holder of an Allowed
Claim that is to receive a distribution under the Plan of Reorganization shall
have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of
any tax obligations imposed by any governmental unit, including income,
withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution. Any
party issuing any instrument or making any distribution under the Plan of
Reorganization has the right, but not the obligation, to not make a distribution
until such holder has made arrangements satisfactory to such issuing or
disbursing party for payment of any such tax obligations

                                       23
<PAGE>

            (c) JPL Fee and Expense Claim Reserve. On the Effective Date, the
JPL Fee and Expense Claim Reserve will be funded by New Loral in an amount
sufficient to fund all of the fees and expenses of the JPLs and their retained
professionals incurred and unpaid prior to the Effective Date (excluding those
fees and expenses which have been disallowed by the Supreme Court of Bermuda
under the terms of the Fee Protocol and which are not subject to any ongoing
dispute). On the Effective Date, New Loral will assume all of the obligations of
the Bermudian Debtors under the Fee Protocol.

            (d) Post-Effective Date Fees and Expenses of the JPLs. On the
Effective Date, New Loral shall deposit an amount to be agreed upon by the
Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and the JPLs in a bank account in Bermuda
designated by and under the sole control of the JPLs, which account shall be an
interest-bearing account subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court of Bermuda for the payment of the JPLs and their retained professionals'
fees and expenses incurred on or after the Effective Date in the provisional
liquidations, in accordance with the Fee Protocol. In the event that such JPL
Fee and Expense Claims in the provisional liquidations are determined by the
Supreme Court of Bermuda to be less than the agreed upon amount described in the
first sentence of this subparagraph, any balance will be returned to New Loral.

            (e) Costs of Liquidation. On the Effective Date, New Loral shall
deposit an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors, the Creditors' Committee and
the JPLs in a bank account in Bermuda designated by and under the sole control
of the JPLs, which account shall be an interest-bearing account subject to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Bermuda for the liquidations of
the Bermudian Debtors (the "Bermuda Liquidation Fund"). The Bermuda Liquidation
Fund will, subject to the provisions of Section 6.6(f) of the Plan of
Reorganization, be used to fund the liquidation of the Bermudian Debtors;
provided, however, that any provisional liquidators and, subsequently,
liquidators of the Bermudian Debtors will be required to carry out only their
statutory obligations under Bermuda law. In the event that, following the making
of winding up orders in respect of the Bermudian Debtors, the JPLs do not act as
provisional liquidators (and, subsequently, liquidators) of the Bermudian
Debtors, the JPLs shall, upon the making of the winding up orders, transfer the
Bermuda Liquidation Fund to such other person(s) so acting as provisional
liquidators (and, subsequently, liquidators). Following the conclusion of the
liquidations of the Bermudian Debtors under Bermuda law, any unused fees and
expenses in the Bermuda Liquidation Fund and the Bermuda Contingency Fund shall
be distributed to New Loral.

            (f) Bermuda Contingency Fund. Upon the making of any winding up
order in respect of the Bermudian Debtors, the JPLs will transfer from the
Bermuda Account, free and clear of liens, claims, and encumbrances, to any
provisional liquidators an amount to be agreed upon by the Debtors, the
Creditors' Committee and the JPLs on account of any unanticipated fees and
expenses of the liquidations of the Bermudian Debtors (the "Bermuda Contingency
Fund"). In the event that any unforeseen circumstances arise which require such
provisional liquidators or liquidators to draw on the Bermuda Contingency Fund,
they shall give New Loral at least seven (7) days prior notice of the purpose of
the draw, the payee, and the amount of such draw, and New Loral shall have the
option to fund such amount directly in lieu of a draw being made against the
Bermuda Contingency Fund.

            6.7. UNCLAIMED DISTRIBUTIONS.

            In the event that any distribution to any holder is returned as
undeliverable , New Loral shall use reasonable efforts to determine the current
address of such holder, but no distribution to such holder shall be made unless
and until New Loral or New FSS, as applicable , has determined the then current
address of such holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such
holder without interest; provided that such distributions shall be deemed
unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration
of one year from the Effective Date. After such date, all unclaimed

                                       24
<PAGE>

property or interest in property shall revert to New Loral or New FSS, as
applicable, and the Claim of any other holder to such property or interest in
property shall be discharged and forever barred.

            6.8. MANNER OF PAYMENT UNDER PLAN OF REORGANIZATION.

            (a) All distributions of New Loral Common Stock and Cash to the
creditors of the Debtors under the Plan of Reorganization, as applicable, shall
be made by the Disbursing Agent on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors. Where the
applicable Reorganized Debtor (determined without regard to Section 5.1 of the
Plan of Reorganization) is a subsidiary of New Loral, New Loral shall make a
capital contribution, either directly or indirectly, to the applicable
Reorganized Debtor of an amount of New Loral Common Stock, or Cash to be
distributed to the creditors of such Debtor, but only at such time as, and to
the extent, the amounts are actually distributed to holders of Allowed Claims.
Any distributions of New Loral Common Stock that revert to New Loral or are
otherwise canceled (such as to the extent any distributions have not been
claimed within one year or are forfeited pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Plan of
Reorganization) shall revest solely in New Loral, and any applicable Reorganized
Debtor (other than New Loral) shall not have (nor shall it be considered to ever
have had) any ownership interest in the amounts distributed.

            (b) At the option of the Debtors, any Cash payment to be made
hereunder may be made by a check or wire transfer.

            (c) All distributions of New FSS Notes and Additional New FSS Notes
shall be made by New FSS.

            6.9. FRACTIONAL SHARES.

            No fractional shares of New Loral Common Stock shall be distributed
under the Plan of Reorganization. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan of
Reorganization on account of an Allowed Claim would otherwise result in the
issuance of a number of shares of New Loral Common Stock that is not a whole
number, the actual distribution of shares of New Loral Common Stock shall be
rounded as follows: (i) fractions of one-half (1/2) or greater shall be rounded
to the next higher whole number and (ii) fractions of less than one-half (1/2)
shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment or other
distribution therefor. The total number of authorized shares of New Loral Common
Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims shall be adjusted as
necessary to account for the rounding provided in this Section 6.9.

            6.10. FRACTIONAL NOTES.

            The New FSS Notes and the Additional New FSS Notes shall not be
distributed in denominations of less than one thousand ($1,000) dollars. When
any distribution pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization on account of an Allowed
Claim would otherwise result in the issuance of an amount of the New FSS Notes
and the Additional New FSS Notes that is not a multiple of one thousand (1,000),
the actual distribution of the New FSS Notes and the Additional New FSS Notes
shall be rounded as follows: (i) denominations of five hundred ($500) dollars or
greater than shall be rounded up to one thousand ($1,000) dollars; and (ii)
denominations less than five hundred ($500) dollars shall be rounded down to
zero with no further payment therefor. The total amount of the New FSS Notes to
be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims and the total amount of the
Additional New FSS Notes that may be purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering
shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the rounding provided in this
Section 6.10.

<PAGE>

            6.11. REGISTRATION OF NEW LORAL COMMON STOCK.

            Each Registration Rights Holder shall have the right to become a
party to the Registration Rights Agreement on the Effective Date. The
Registration Rights Agreement shall be acceptable to MHR Fund Management LLC, as
Registration Rights Holder.

            6.12. SETOFFS.

            The Debtors may, but shall not be required to, setoff 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
may have against the holder of such Claim, but neither the failure to do so nor
the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by the
Debtors of any such Claim the Debtors may have against the holder of such Claim.

            6.13. ALLOCATION OF PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS BETWEEN PRINCIPAL AND
INTEREST.

            To the extent that any Allowed Claim entitled to a distribution
under the Plan of Reorganization consists of indebtedness and accrued but unpaid
interest thereon, such distribution shall be allocated first to the principal
amount of the Claim (as determined for federal income tax purposes) and then, to
the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claim, to
accrued but unpaid interest.

      SECTION 7. PROCEDURES FOR DISPUTED CLAIMS

            7.1. OBJECTIONS TO CLAIMS.

            The Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to object to all Claims.
Any objections to Claims shall be served and filed on or before the later of (i)
one hundred twenty (120) days after the Effective Date , as such time may be
extended by order of the Bankruptcy Court and (ii) such later date as may be
fixed by the Bankruptcy Court, whether fixed before or after the date specified
in clause (i) above.

            7.2. PAYMENTS AND DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTED CLAIMS.

            (a) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan of
Reorganization, if any portion of a Claim is disputed, no payment or
distribution provided hereunder shall be made on account of any portion of such
Disputed Claim unless and until such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.

            (b) In the event Subsection 4.5(b) of the Plan of Reorganization is
operative, the Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common Stock
to be distributed to holders of Allowed Loral General Unsecured Claims an amount
that would be distributable in respect of any disputed Loral General Unsecured
Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the Effective Date, and shall hold such
stock in escrow (the "Loral Disputed Claims Reserve") pending resolution of the
Disputed Claims, together with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses
relating thereto, including any taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by
the reserve).

            (c) The Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common
Stock and the New FSS Notes to be distributed to holders of Allowed Orion
General Unsecured Claims an amount that would be distributable in respect of any
disputed Orion General Unsecured Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the
Effective Date, and shall hold such stock and notes in escrow (the "Orion
Disputed Claims Reserve") pending resolution of the Disputed Claims, together
with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any
taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the reserve).

                                       26
<PAGE>

            (d) The Disbursing Agent shall withhold from the New Loral Common
Stock to be distributed to holders of Allowed Ltd. General Unsecured Claims an
amount that would be distributable in respect of any disputed Ltd. General
Unsecured Claim had such Claim been Allowed on the Effective Date, and shall
hold such stock in escrow (the "Ltd. Disputed Claims Reserve" and, together with
the Loral Disputed Claims Reserve and the Orion Disputed Claims Reserve, the
"Disputed Claims Reserves") pending resolution of the Disputed Claims, together
with all earnings thereon (net of any expenses relating thereto, including any
taxes imposed thereon or otherwise payable by the reserve).

            (e) Any New Loral Common Stock and/or New FSS Notes reserved under
Sections 7.2(b),(c) and (d) shall be voted by the Disbursing Agent
proportionally in the same manner as the other New Loral Common Stock and/or New
FSS Notes, as applicable, are voted.

            7.3. DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER RESOLUTION OF DISPUTED CLAIMS.

            On the next Distribution Date after a Disputed Claim becomes an
Allowed Claim, the Disbursing Agent shall distribute to the holder of such
Claim, the property distributable with respect to such Claim in accordance with
Sections 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 of the Plan of Reorganization, as applicable, and any
net earnings attributable thereto. To the extent that all or a portion of a
Disputed Claim is disallowed, the holder of such Claim shall not receive any
distribution on account of the portion of such Claim that is disallowed and any
property withheld pending the resolution of such Claim shall be reallocated in
accordance with Sections 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 of the Plan of Reorganization,
together with any net earnings attributable thereto.

            7.4. TAX TREATMENT OF DISPUTED CLAIMS RESERVES.

            (a) Subject to definitive guidance from the IRS or a court of
competent jurisdiction to the contrary (including the receipt by the Disbursing
Agent of a private letter ruling if the Disbursing Agent so requests one, or the
receipt of an adverse determination by the IRS upon audit if not contested by
the Disbursing Agent), the Disbursing Agent shall (i) treat each Disputed Claims
Reserve as a discrete trust for federal income tax purposes, consisting of
separate and independent shares to be established in respect of each Disputed
Claim, in accordance with the trust provisions of the Tax Code (section 641 et.
seq.), and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall report
consistent with the foregoing for state and local income tax purposes. All
holders of Disputed Claims shall report, for tax purposes, consistent with the
foregoing.

            (b) The Disbursing Agent may request an expedited determination of
taxes of the Disputed Claims Reserves under section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code for all tax returns filed for or on behalf of the Disputed Claims Reserves
for all taxable periods through the date of dissolution of such trust.

            7.5. TREATMENT AND DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER ALLOWANCE.

            After such time as a Disputed Claim becomes, in whole or in part, an
Allowed Claim, the holder thereof shall be distributed the distributions, if
any, to which such holder is then entitled as provided in the Plan of
Reorganization. Such distributions shall be made as soon as practicable after
(i) the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing such
Disputed Claim (or portion thereof) becomes a Final Order, (ii) the date on
which any objection to such Disputed Claim has been withdrawn in accordance with
Section 7.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, or (iii) the date on which such
Disputed Claim has been settled, compromised or otherwise resolved in accordance
with Section 7.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, but in no event more than thirty
(30) days thereafter.

                                       27
<PAGE>

            7.6. RESOLUTION OF ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CLAIMS AND CLAIMS.

            On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have
the authority to compromise, settle, otherwise resolve, or withdraw any
objections to Administrative Expense Claims and Claims and to compromise,
settle, or otherwise resolve any disputed Administrative Expense Claims and
disputed Claims without approval of the Bankruptcy Court, other than with
respect to Administrative Expense Claims relating to compensation of
professionals.

            7.7. ESTIMATION OF CLAIMS.

            The Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, and the
Reorganized Debtors may at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate
any Contingent Claim, Unliquidated Claim, or Disputed Claim pursuant to section
502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether any of the Debtors or the
Reorganized Debtors previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy
Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court will retain
jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any
objection to any Claim, including, without limitation, during the pendency of
any appeal relating to any such objection. In the event that the Bankruptcy
Court estimates any Contingent Claim, Unliquidated Claim, or Disputed 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 Debtors, in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, or 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.

            7.8. INTEREST.

            To the extent that a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim after
the Effective Date, the holder of such Claim shall not be entitled to any
interest thereon.

      SECTION 8. EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

            8.1. ASSUMPTION OR REJECTION OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED
LEASES.

            Pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code,
all executory contracts and unexpired leases that exist between the Debtors and
any person or entity shall be deemed rejected by the Debtors as of the Effective
Date, except for any executory contract or unexpired lease (i) that has been
assumed pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court entered prior to the
Effective Date, (ii) as to which a motion for approval of the assumption of such
executory contract or unexpired lease has been filed and served prior to the
Confirmation Date, or (iii) that is specifically designated as a contract or
lease to be assumed on Schedule 8.1, which Schedule shall be contained in the
Plan Supplement; provided, however, that the Debtors, subject to the consent of
the Creditors' Committee, reserve the right, on or prior to the Confirmation
Date, to amend Schedule 8.1 to delete any executory contract or unexpired lease
therefrom or add any executory contract or unexpired lease thereto, in which
event such executory contract(s) or unexpired lease(s) shall be deemed to be,
respectively, either rejected or assumed as of the Effective Date . The Debtors
shall provide notice of any amendments to Schedule 8.1 to the parties to the
executory contracts and unexpired leases affected thereby and to the Creditors'
Committee. The listing of a document on Schedule 8.1 shall not constitute an
admission by the Debtors that such document is an executory contract or an
unexpired lease or that the Debtors have any liability thereunder.

                                       28
<PAGE>

            A non-Debtor party to an executory contract or unexpired lease that
is being rejected hereunder may request that the Debtors assume such contract or
lease by sending written notice to New Loral, which notice shall include a
waiver of any defaults (including any payment defaults) and any right to any
cure payment under such contract or lease. New Loral may, but shall not be
obligated to, assume such contract or lease without further action of the
Bankruptcy Court.

            8.2. APPROVAL OF ASSUMPTION OR REJECTION OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND
UNEXPIRED LEASES.

            Entry of the Confirmation Order shall, subject to and upon the
occurrence of the Effective Date, constitute (i) the approval, pursuant to
sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, of the assumption of the
executory contracts and unexpired leases assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of the
Plan of Reorganization, (ii) the extension of time, pursuant to section
365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, within which the Debtors may assume, assume
and assign, or reject the executory contracts and unexpired leases specified in
Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization through the date of entry of an order
approving the assumption, assumption and assignment, or rejection of such
executory contracts and unexpired leases and (iii) the approval, pursuant to
sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, of the rejection of the
executory contracts and unexpired leases rejected pursuant to Section 8.1 of the
Plan of Reorganization.

            8.3. INCLUSIVENESS.

            Unless otherwise specified on Schedule 8.1, each executory contract
and unexpired lease listed or to be listed on Schedule 8.1 shall include any and
all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements
made directly or indirectly by any agreement, instrument, or other document that
in any manner affects such executory contract or unexpired lease, without regard
to whether such agreement, instrument or other document is listed on Schedule
8.1.

            8.4. CURE OF DEFAULTS.

            Except to the extent that different treatment has been agreed to by
the non-debtor party or parties to any executory contract or unexpired lease to
be assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan of Reorganization, the Debtors
shall, pursuant to the provisions of sections 1123(a)(5)(G) and 1123(b)(2) of
the Bankruptcy Code and consistent with the requirements of section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code, within twenty (20) days of the Confirmation Date, file with the
Bankruptcy Court and serve by first class mail on each non-debtor party to such
executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed pursuant to Section 8.1 of
the Plan of Reorganization, a pleading listing the cure amount as to each
executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed. The parties to such
executory contracts or unexpired leases to be assumed by the Debtors shall have
twenty (20) days from the date of service of such pleading to object to the cure
amounts listed by the Debtors. If there are any objections filed, the Bankruptcy
Court shall hold a hearing. Notwithstanding Section 8.1 of the Plan of
Reorganization, the Debtors shall retain their rights to reject any of their
executory contracts or unexpired leases that are subject to a dispute concerning
amounts necessary to cure any defaults through the Effective Date.

            8.5. ASSIGNMENT.

            In furtherance of the Plan of Reorganization and in order to
consummate the Restructuring Transactions provided in Section 5.3 of the Plan of
Reorganization, on and after the Effective Date, pursuant to sections 105(a),
363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors may
transfer and assign any of their executory contracts or unexpired leases that
have not been rejected to any of their affiliates without any further act,
authority or notice. Any executory

                                       29
<PAGE>

contract or unexpired lease so transferred and assigned shall remain in full
force and effect for the benefit of the transferee or assignee in accordance
with its terms, notwithstanding any provision in such executory contract or
unexpired lease (including those of the type described in sections 365(b)(2) of
the Bankruptcy Code) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such transfer or
assignment. Any provision that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment
or transfer of any such executory contract or unexpired lease or that terminates
or modifies such executory contract or unexpired lease or allows the
counterparty to such executory contract or unexpired lease to terminate, modify,
recapture, impose any penalty, condition renewal or extension, or modify any
term or condition upon any such transfer and assignment constitutes an
unenforceable anti-assignment provision and is void and of no force or effect.

            8.6. REJECTION CLAIMS.

            In the event that the rejection of an executory contract or
unexpired lease by the Debtors pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization 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 filed proof of claim, shall be
forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the
Reorganized Debtors, or their properties or interests in property as agents,
successors, or assigns, unless a proof of claim is filed with the Bankruptcy
Court and served upon the attorneys for the Debtors on or before the date that
is thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the Confirmation Date, (ii) notice of
modification to Schedule 8.1, or (iii) such later rejection date that occurs as
a result of a dispute concerning amounts necessary to cure any defaults.

            8.7. SURVIVAL OF THE DEBTORS' CORPORATE INDEMNITIES.

            Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to
the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, any
and all obligations of the Debtors to indemnify and reimburse persons who are or
were directors, officers, agents and/or employees of the Debtors on the
Commencement Date or any time thereafter against and for any obligations
(including, without limitation, fees and expenses incurred by any of the members
of the Board of Directors of any of the Debtors in connection with the
Reorganization Cases) pursuant to articles of incorporation, codes of
regulations, bylaws, applicable state law or specific agreement, or any
combination of the foregoing, shall survive the confirmation of the Plan of
Reorganization, shall remain unaffected thereby and in full force and effect as
obligations of the Reorganized Debtors, and shall not be discharged in
accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, irrespective
of whether indemnification or reimbursement is owed in connection with an event
occurring before, on, or after the Commencement Date. In furtherance of the
foregoing, the Reorganized Debtors shall maintain insurance for the benefit of
such directors, officers, agents and/or employees at levels no less favorable
than those existing as of the date of entry of the Confirmation Order for a
period of no less than three years following the Effective Date.

            8.8. INSURANCE POLICIES.

            Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to
the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, all
of the Debtors' insurance policies and any agreements, documents or instruments
relating thereto, are treated as executory contracts under the Plan of
Reorganization and will be assumed pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization,
effective as of the Effective Date. Nothing contained in this Section 8.8 shall
constitute or be deemed a waiver of any cause of action that the Debtors may
hold against any entity, including, without limitation, the insurer, under any
of the Debtors' policies of insurance.

                                       30
<PAGE>

            8.9. COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PROGRAMS.

            Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan of Reorganization to
the contrary, unless specifically rejected by order of the Bankruptcy Court, all
employment and severance policies and workers' compensation programs, and all
compensation and benefit plans, policies and programs of the Debtors applicable
to their present and former employees, officers and directors, including,
without express or implied limitation, all savings plans, retirement plans,
supplemental retirement plans (including the Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan, as amended pursuant to the SERP Amendment), health care plans, disability
plans, and life, accidental death, and dismemberment insurance plans, shall be
deemed to be, and shall be treated as though they are, executor contracts that
are deemed assumed under the Plan of Reorganization, and the Debtors'
obligations under such plans, policies, and programs shall be deemed assumed
pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall survive confirmation of
the Plan of Reorganization, shall remain unaffected thereby, and shall not be
discharged in accordance with section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Any defaults
existing under any of such plans, policies, and programs shall be cured promptly
after they become known by the Reorganized Debtors. All severance benefits shall
be treated as set forth in the Plan Supplement. The assumed plans shall be
subject to modification in accordance with the terms thereof at the discretion
of the New Loral Board.

            8.10. RETIREE BENEFITS.

            On and after the Effective Date, pursuant to section 1129(a)(13) of
the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to pay all retiree
benefits of the Debtors (within the meaning of and subject to section 1114 of
the Bankruptcy Code) for the duration of the period for which the Debtors had
obligated themselves to provide such benefits and subject to the right of the
Reorganized Debtors to modify or terminate such retiree benefits in accordance
with the terms thereof.

      SECTION 9. THE RIGHTS OFFERING

            9.1. ISSUANCE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS.

            Each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim shall have a
Subscription Right entitling such holder to subscribe for up to its Additional
New FSS Notes Pro Rata Share of Additional New FSS Notes. Holders of Orion
General Unsecured Claims have the right, but not the obligation, to participate
in the Rights Offering as provided herein. If, after the Voting Record Date but
at least five (5) days prior to the Subscription Expiration Date, a holder of an
Orion General Unsecured Claim is permitted to participate in the Rights Offering
as a result of a Bankruptcy Court order estimating such Claim for the purpose of
determining such holder's Rights Participation Claim Amount, such holder shall
be permitted to participate in the Rights Offering to the same extent as a
holder of a Rights Participation Claim Amount as of the Voting Record Date.

            9.2. SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD.

            The Rights Offering shall commence on the Subscription Commencement
Date and shall expire on the Subscription Expiration Date. Each holder of an
Orion General Unsecured Claim intending to participate in the Rights Offering
must affirmatively elect to exercise its Subscription Right(s) on or prior to
the Subscription Expiration Date. After the Subscription Expiration Date,
unexercised Subscription Rights shall be treated as acquired by the Backstop
Purchaser and any exercise of such Subscription Rights by any entity other than
the Backstop Purchaser shall be null and void and the Debtors shall not be
obligated to honor any such purported exercise received by the Disbursing Agent
after the Subscription Expiration Date, regardless of when the documents
relating to such exercise were sent.

                                       31
<PAGE>

            9.3. SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASE PRICE.

            Each holder of Subscription Rights shall be required to pay such
holder's Subscription Purchase Price for Additional New FSS Notes, or a lesser
amount of Additional New FSS Notes, each in the face amount of $1,000, as such
holder may determine, subject to rounding as provided in Section 6.10 of the
Plan of Reorganization.

            9.4. EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS.

            In order to exercise the Subscription Rights, each holder of an
Orion General Unsecured Claim must: (a) return a duly completed Subscription
Form to the Disbursing Agent so that such form is actually received by the
Disbursing Agent on or before the Subscription Expiration Date; and (b) pay to
the Disbursing Agent (on behalf of Orion) on or before the Subscription
Expiration Date such holder's Subscription Purchase Price in accordance with the
wire instructions set forth on the Subscription Form or by bank or cashier's
check delivered to the Disbursing Agent along with the Subscription Form. If, on
or prior to the Subscription Expiration Date, the Disbursing Agent for any
reason does not receive from a given holder of Subscription Rights both a duly
completed Subscription Form and immediately available funds in an amount equal
to such holder's Subscription Purchase Price, such holder shall be deemed to
have relinquished and waived its right to participate in the Rights Offering.
The payments made in accordance with the Rights Offering shall be deposited and
held by the Disbursing Agent in a trust account, or similarly segregated account
or accounts which shall be separate and apart from the Disbursing Agent's
general operating funds and any other funds subject to any Lien or any cash
collateral arrangements and which segregated account or accounts will be
maintained for the purpose of holding the money for administration of the Rights
Offering until the Effective Date, or such other later date, at the option of
the Reorganized Debtors, but not later than twenty (20) days after the Effective
Date. The Disbursing Agent shall not use such funds for any other purpose prior
to such date and shall not encumber or permit such funds to be encumbered with
any Lien or similar encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order for a
holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim to exercise its Subscription Right,
such holder must provide its instruction to its bank, broker, or other nominee
or to its agent. The bank, broker, or other nominee or its agent, in turn, must
then convey the instruction on a master Subscription Form, and arrange for the
proper payment either through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or, if DTC is
unable to act as intermediary for subscription instructions and payments, by
following the payment instructions outlined above.

            Each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim may exercise all or
any portion of such holder's Subscription Rights pursuant to the Subscription
Form but the exercise of any Subscription Rights shall be irrevocable. In order
to facilitate the exercise of the Subscription Rights, on the Subscription
Commencement Date, the Debtors will mail the Subscription Form to each holder of
an Orion General Unsecured Claim as of the Voting Record Date together with
appropriate instructions for the proper completion, due execution and timely
delivery of the Subscription Form, as well as instructions for the payment of
the applicable Subscription Purchase Price for that portion of the Subscription
Rights sought to be acquired by such holder. As promptly as practicable (and, in
any event, not later than ten (10) Business Days) following the Subscription
Expiration Date, the Debtors will deliver to each holder of an Orion General
Unsecured Claim that has sought to exercise its Subscription Rights a written
statement specifying the portion of the Subscription Rights that was validly and
effectively acquired by such holder giving effect to Section 9.6 hereof. The
Debtors, with the consent of the Creditors' Committee, may adopt such additional
detailed procedures consistent with the provisions of this Section 9 to more
efficiently administer the exercise of the Subscription Rights.

                                       32
<PAGE>

            9.5. TRANSFER RESTRICTION; REVOCATION.

            The Subscription Rights are not transferable separate from the Orion
General Unsecured Claims that give rise to them. Any such transfer or attempted
transfer will be null and void and the Debtors will not treat any purported
transferee as the holder of any Subscription Rights. Once the holder of an Orion
General Unsecured Claim has properly exercised its Subscription Right, such
exercise will not be permitted to be revoked.

            9.6. RIGHTS BACKSTOP PURCHASER.

            Any amount of Additional New FSS Notes not subscribed for pursuant
to the Rights Offering shall be purchased by the Backstop Purchaser(s) at the
same price provided in the Rights Offering. The Backstop Purchaser(s) shall pay
to the Disbursing Agent, by wire transfer in immediately available funds on or
prior to the Effective Date, Cash in an amount equal to the Subscription
Purchase Price attributable to such amount of Additional New FSS Notes. The
Disbursing Agent shall deposit such payment into the same trust account into
which were deposited the Subscription Purchase Price payments of holders of
Orion General Unsecured Claims on the exercise of their Subscription Rights.

            In consideration for its agreement to backstop the Rights Offering,
each Backstop Purchaser shall receive its share of the Backstop Fee, which notes
shall be issued as part of the New FSS Notes Indenture.

            9.7. RECALCULATION AS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION EXPIRATION DATE .

            The Additional New FSS Notes Pro Rata Share shall be recalculated on
the Subscription Expiration Date to account for any subsequent allowances of
Orion General Unsecured Claims and each properly exercising holder of an Orion
General Unsecured Claim under the Rights Offering shall only be entitled to
purchase the amount so calculated on such date and any amounts paid by such
holders in excess of the amount authorized to be purchased shall be refunded,
without interest, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date.

            9.8. DISTRIBUTION OF THE ADDITIONAL NEW FSS NOTES.

            On, or as soon as reasonably practicable after, the Effective Date,
the Disbursing Agent shall distribute the Additional New FSS Note(s) purchased
by each holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim that has properly exercised
its Subscription Rights to such holder and to the Backstop Purchaser.

            9.9. DISPUTED CLAIMS.

            For all purposes of this Section 9, each holder of an Orion General
Unsecured Claim is entitled to participate in the Rights Offering solely to the
extent of its Rights Participation Claim Amount, if any.

            9.10. SUBSEQUENT ADJUSTMENTS.

            If as a result of subsequent allowances of Orion General Unsecured
Claims for purposes of participating in the Rights Offering more than all of the
Additional New FSS Notes subject to the Rights Offering have been subscribed for
as a result of the exercise of the Subscription Rights, each properly exercising
holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim shall be reduced on a pro rata basis
based upon the principal amount of Additional New FSS Notes properly subscribed
for by such holder. The difference between the price actually paid by such
exercising holder and the amount of Additional

                                       33
<PAGE>

New FSS Notes that such holder is entitled to acquire after giving effect to the
cut back, if any, shall be refunded, without interest, as soon as reasonably
practicable after the Effective Date.

            9.11. NO INTEREST.

            In the event all or any portion of the Subscription Purchase Price
is repaid to the entity making such payment, no interest shall be paid thereon.

            9.12. VALIDITY OF EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS.

            All questions concerning the timeliness, viability, form and
eligibility of any exercise of Subscription Rights shall be determined by the
Debtors in consultation with the Creditors' Committee, whose good faith
determinations shall be final and binding. The Debtors, in their discretion
reasonably exercised in good faith in consultation with the Creditors'
Committee, may waive any defect or irregularity, or permit a defect or
irregularity to be corrected within such times as they may determine, or reject
the purported exercise of any Subscription Rights. Subscription Forms shall be
deemed not to have been received or accepted until all irregularities have been
waived or cured within such time as the Debtors determine in their discretion
reasonably exercised in good faith. The Debtors will use commercially reasonable
efforts to give notice to any holder of an Orion General Unsecured Claim
regarding any defect or irregularity in connection with any purported exercise
of Subscription Rights by such holder and, with the consent of the Creditors'
Committee, may permit such defect or irregularity to be cured within such time
as they may determine in good faith to be appropriate; provided, however, that
neither the Debtors nor the Disbursing Agent shall incur any liability for
failure to give such notification.

DEBTORS

            10.1. GENERAL.

provided for by section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code or as otherwise permitted by
law without additional disclosure pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy
Code, except as the Bankruptcy Court may otherwise direct. After the

the treatment of holders of Claims or Equity Interests under the Plan of
Reorganization, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, subject to the consent
of the Creditors' Committee, may institute proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court
to remedy any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistencies in the Plan of

            As of and subject to the occurrence of the Confirmation Date: (i)
the Debtors shall be deemed to have solicited acceptances of the Plan of

governing the adequacy of disclosure in connection with such solicitation and
(ii) the Debtors, the members of the Creditors' Committee, and each of their
respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers, employees, advisors, and

                                       43
<PAGE>

attorneys shall be deemed to have participated in good faith and in compliance
with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code in the offer and issuance
of any securities under the Plan of Reorganization, and therefore are not, and
on account of such offer, issuance, and solicitation will not be, liable at any
time for any violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation governing the
solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan of Reorganization or the
offer and issuance of any securities under the Plan of Reorganization.

            14.13. REVOCATION OR WITHDRAWAL OF THE PLAN OF REORGANIZATION.

            The Debtors reserve the right to revoke or withdraw the Plan of
Reorganization prior to the Effective Date. If the Debtors take such action, the

prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtors or any person in any further
proceedings involving the Debtors.

            14.14. SEVERABILITY.

            If, prior to the entry of the Confirmation Order, any term or
provision of the Plan of Reorganization is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be
invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court, at the request of the
Debtors, subject to the consent of the Creditors' Committee, 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, unless agreed
otherwise between the Debtors and the Creditors' Committee, the remainder of the
terms and provisions of the Plan of Reorganization will remain in full force and
effect and will 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 the
Plan of Reorganization, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance
with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

            14.15. GOVERNING LAW.

            Except to the extent that the Bankruptcy Code or other federal law
is applicable, or to the extent an Exhibit hereto or a schedule or document in
the Plan Supplement provides otherwise, the rights, duties, and obligations
arising under the Plan of Reorganization shall be governed by, and construed and
enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.

            14.16. BINDING EFFECT.

            The Plan of Reorganization shall be binding upon and inure to the
