SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION

Marin Software Incorporated (the “Debtor” or “Company”), the debtor and debtor-in-possession in the above-captioned chapter 11 case, hereby proposes the following combined disclosure statement and plan of reorganization pursuant to sections 1121(a) and 1125(b) of title 11 of the United States Code (the disclosure statement portion hereof, the “Disclosure Statement” and the chapter 11 plan portion hereof, the “Plan,” as may be modified and/or amended from time to time, and collectively, the “Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan”). Capitalized terms used in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Exhibit A attached hereto.

To implement a comprehensive financial restructuring (the “Restructuring”), the Debtor has commenced a chapter 11 case (the “Chapter 11 Case”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtor has filed this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and a motion seeking (a) conditional approval of the adequacy of disclosures in the Disclosure Statement, (b) a waiver of any requirement to solicit the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan for voting purposes, and (c) approval of various procedures related to the foregoing (the “Procedures Order”).

The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan proposes to pay all holders of Claims against the Debtor in full and to distribute any remaining Cash of the Debtor to the holders of Interests on a Pro Rata basis. Therefore, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan treats all holders of Claims and Interests as Unimpaired and not entitled to vote.

The proposed sponsor of the Plan is Kaxxa Holdings, Inc. (“Kaxxa” or “Plan Sponsor”), an affiliate of the Debtor’s prepetition and postpetition lender, YYYYY, LLC (the “Prepetition Lender” and the “DIP Lender”). The Plan Sponsor and the Prepetition Lender and DIP Lender are the “Supporting Parties.” The Debtor and the Supporting Parties are parties to a Restructuring Support Agreement dated as of July 1, 2025 (together with all exhibits thereto, and as amended, restated, and supplemented from time to time, the “Restructuring Support Agreement” or “RSA”), the assumption of which is subject to a separate motion filed by the Debtor, that sets forth the principal terms of the Restructuring and requires the parties thereto to support the Plan.

As set forth in this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, through a payment of Plan Consideration totaling $5.5 million to the Plan Administrator by the Plan Sponsor, the Restructuring contemplates full payment of all Claims against the Debtor and a distribution of any remaining Cash to the holders of Interests. In consideration of the foregoing, (a) Reorganized Debtor New Equity will be issued to the Plan Sponsor and, if the DIP Lender exercises its Subscription Option, the DIP Lender, (b) any Claims of the Prepetition Lender against the Debtor will be waived, and (c) the going-concern value of the Debtor’s business and operating assets will be preserved. Generally, the Plan provides for (1) the reorganization of the Debtor by retiring, cancelling, extinguishing and/or discharging all Interests; (2) the funding of the Plan Consideration by the Plan Sponsor, (3) the distribution of Available Cash to holders of Allowed Claims and Interests by the Plan Administrator in accordance with the priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code or as otherwise agreed; (4) the revesting of all assets of the Debtor’s Estate in the Reorganized Debtor (excluding Cash that will be distributed to the Holders of Claims and

Interests); and (5) the issuance of 100% of the Reorganized Debtor New Equity to the Plan Sponsor and, if the DIP Lender exercises its Subscription Option, the DIP Lender.

On the Effective Date, the Plan Sponsor will acquire up to 100% of the Reorganized Debtor New Equity, subject to the Subscription Option in favor of the DIP Lender, together with all or substantially all of the Debtor’s assets, free and clear of any options, liens, or other claims, excluding the Debtor’s cash, the Plan Consideration, the Debtor’s prepetition accounts receivable (and the proceeds thereof), and any other assets of the Debtor that the Plan Sponsor determines to exclude in its sole discretion.

On and after the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator will make distributions in accordance with the Plan, using the Plan Consideration and any Available Cash. Based upon the Debtor’s current estimates, the Debtor anticipates there will be sufficient Plan Consideration and Available Cash to provide full cash recoveries to all Holders of Allowed Claims and a distribution to Holders of Equity Interests on a Pro Rata basis. The Prepetition Lender, which is also the DIP Lender and an affiliate of the Plan Sponsor, has agreed to waive its Claim against the Debtor and any distribution on account thereof for the benefit of the Debtor’s other stakeholders.

In a chapter 7 proceeding, absent confirmation of the Plan, unsecured creditors will receive less or no distributions on account of their Claims, and Holders of Interests will receive no distributions on account of such Interests.

The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and the exhibits hereto include a discussion of: (i) the nature of the Debtor’s business and a summary of the events leading to this Chapter 11 Case; (ii) events during the Chapter 11 Case; (iii) the requirements for confirmation of the Plan; (iv) additional factors and disclosures to be considered, including risk factors and certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Plan; and (v) the terms of the Plan, including the treatment of holders of Claims and Interests under the Plan; and (vi) certain other related matters. The Disclosure Statement was prepared with the intent to provide “adequate information” (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code) to enable holders of Claims against and Interests in the Debtor to understand and make informed judgments about the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

Subject to the restrictions on modifications set forth in section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 3019, the Debtor expressly reserves the right to alter, amend, or modify the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, including the Plan Supplement, one or more times, before substantial consummation thereof.

Please read the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the exhibits, and other supporting materials. The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan provides the best method of maximizing the recoveries for the Holders of Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtor.

2.1 Summary of Classification and Treatment of Claims and Interests

No Classes are entitled to vote on the Plan.

2.2 Voting on Plan Unnecessary

SECTION 4
BACKGROUND

4.1 General Background

Marin is a provider of digital marketing software for search, social, and eCommerce advertising channels, offered as a software-as-a-service advertising management platform for performance-driven advertisers and agencies. Marin’s platform is an analytics, workflow, and optimization solution for marketing professionals, allowing them to manage their digital advertising spend effectively. Marin markets and sells its solutions to advertisers directly and through leading advertising agencies.

Marin was incorporated under Delaware law in 2006 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California. At its peak, Marin had offices and employees across the globe. Despite its

initial success, the Company’s revenue has been in year-over-year decline since 2016. As a result of this decline, in November 2023, Marin disclosed that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern due to its inability to obtain funding to sustain operations or realize a net positive cash flow. The Board of Directors of Marin (the “Board”) determined that it was in the best interests of its shareholders to seek strategic alternatives and thereafter directed the Company and its investment banker at the time to explore potential options, including a potential sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets. Additionally, to reduce operating costs, the Company implemented a series of corporate restructuring initiatives including several reduction in force plans. Over the past nine months, the Company has reduced its workforce by nearly 90%.

Unfortunately, the Company and its investment banker were unsuccessful in their efforts to attract a buyer. And despite the Company’s reductions in force and efforts to reduce operating costs, the Company has continued to incur significant operating losses and ongoing revenue decline. As a result, on April 9, 2025, the Board approved a voluntary liquidation and dissolution and adopted a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of Marin (the “Plan of Dissolution”), which was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 11, 2025, subject to the Company’s ability to abandon or delay the Plan of Dissolution in accordance with its terms, and was projected to pay the Company’s general unsecured claims in full but would have left insufficient cash on hand for a distribution to shareholders.

During the process of approving the Plan of Dissolution, the Company, without the assistance of its investment banker, engaged in discussions with Kaxxa concerning the sale of substantially all assets of the Company to be effectuated through the commencement of a case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On May 30, 2025, these discussions resulted in a non-binding letter of intent with Kaxxa (the “Kaxxa LOI”), and subsequently on July 1, 2025, the Restructuring Support Agreement.

The Board determined that the proposed transaction under the RSA is superior to the Plan of Dissolution and exercised its option under the Plan of Dissolution to abandon the dissolution of the Company and pivot to completing the transaction with Kaxxa.

(a) Overview of the Business

Marin’s business centers on its marketing platform, which enables customers to measure, manage, and optimize their digital advertising spend effectively. In support of its business, Marin offers a selection of products to its customers, including Marin Connect, Marin Ascend, and Marin-One.

Using Marin Ascend’s AI-tool, customers can automatically allocate their marketing budget to the most promising opportunities across their portfolios. Marin-One—Marin’s flagship product and an extension of Marin Connect and Marin Ascend—enables customers to measure, manage, and optimize their entire marketing funnel on Marin’s platform

using Marin’s AI-powered tools. Customers can also customize Marin-One’s automation features using customizable scripts and rule-based optimizations.

Historically, Marin has focused on digital advertisers across all verticals who spend $100,000 per month and more on digital advertising across search, social, and e-commerce channels. Marin has sold to in-house advertising teams as well as advertising agencies globally. Marin’s platform operates worldwide in various languages and currencies, supporting digital advertising campaigns on global publishers including Google, Facebook, Amazon, Apple Search Ads, and others.

(b) Financial Conditions

The Company incurred a net loss of $8.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily made up of revenue of $16.7 million, cost of sales of $6.8 million, and operating expenses of $18.5 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.4 million.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred an additional net loss of $0.9 million, primarily made up of revenue of $3.7 million, cost of sales of $1.3 million, and operating expenses of $3.1 million.

As of the Petition Date, the Company had cash on hand and cash equivalents of approximately $100,000.

Additionally, Marin estimates that, as of December 31, 2023, it had approximately $159.8 million of federal net operating losses (the “NOLs”), no 163(j) Carryforwards, and approximately $6.1 million of federal research and development credit carryforwards. Marin also anticipates that it may generate substantial additional tax attributes for losses associated with tax years 2024 and 2025, including during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Case, and subject to further analysis, may have a “net unrealized built-in loss” (together with the aforementioned NOLs, 163(j) Carryforwards, credit carryforwards, and certain other tax attributes, collectively, the “Tax Attributes”).

As of the Petition Date, the Company’s principal assets were its cash on hand; Tax Attributes; information technology equipment; accounts receivable; contractual relationships with customers, partners, and suppliers; and intellectual property portfolio, which consists of software developed by the Company, five issued patents, one patent application, and various trademarks, copyrights, and internet domain names.

(c) Employees and Locations

On March 4, 2025, the Company commenced implementing an organizational restructuring and reduction in force plan to reduce the Company’s operating costs, which resulted in the reduction of the Company’s global employees by approximately 22 employees, representing approximately 28% of the Company’s global employees as of December 31, 2024.

On April 9, 2025, the Company commenced an additional reduction in force plan that further reduced the Company’s global employees by 20 employees, representing approximately 30% of the Company’s global employees as of March 31, 2025.

As of the Petition Date, the Company has eight remaining employees and three independent contractors. The Company’s foreign non-debtor subsidiaries employ an additional 9 employees.

The Company’s employees are fully remote, which nearly eliminates the Company’s real estate footprint. The Company leases a small shared office in San Francisco and a co-location data center in Las Vegas, which houses the Company’s operational computer servers. Both locations are month-to-month leases

(d) Corporate Structure

Marin was incorporated under Delaware law in March 16, 2006 and became a publicly traded company in 2013. The chart below depicts Marin’s corporate entity structure as of the Petition Date.

The Company’s subsidiaries are in the process of winding down their operations in their respective countries and are not debtors in this Chapter 11 Case.

Marin’s leadership is comprised of four individuals: (1) Christopher Lien, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors; (2) Wister Walcott, Executive Vice President of Technology; (3) Robert Bertz, Chief Financial Officer; and (4) Tom Townsend, Head of Human Resources.2 Marin’s leadership reports to the Board, comprised of the following individuals: (1) Christopher Lien; (2) Donald Hutchison; (3) Daina Middleton; (4) L. Gordon Crovitz; (5) Brian Kinion; and (6) Diena Lee Mann.

4.2 Capital Structure and Financing

(a) Prepetition Secured Debt

As of the Petition Date, the Debtor was indebted, subject to the terms of the Prepetition Secured Note, to the Prepetition Lender, in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000, plus interest, fees and costs, pursuant to Prepetition Secured Note, between the Debtor and the Prepetition Lender, and including any premiums, expenses, indemnity, and reimbursement obligations accrued thereunder and all other fees and expenses (including fees and expenses of attorneys and advisors) as provided therein. The Prepetition Lender is an affiliate of Kaxxa and is also the DIP Lender.

Pursuant to the Prepetition Secured Note, the Debtor granted liens and security interests to the Prepetition Lender in the personal property of the Debtor constituting “IP Assets” under, and as defined in, the Prepetition Secured Note. The security grant contained in the Prepetition Secured Note is perfected by a UCC-1 filing dated June 25, 2025.

The Company does not have any other secured debt.

(b) Prepetition Unsecured Debt

As of the Petition Date, the Company estimates that it owes known unsecured trade creditors approximately $200,000. The Company estimates total Class 4 Claims (General Unsecured Claims) between $3 million and $4 million, which includes the estimated trade creditor claims, claims and potential claims for severance obligations, and potential investment banking fee claims.

(c) Equity Interests

In March 2013, Marin had an initial public offering issuing 7,500,000 shares of common stock and raising $105 million on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol MRIN. On June 20, 2018, Marin moved its stock exchange listing from the NYSE to The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the same symbol.

On April 16, 2025, Marin, received a notification letter (the “Initial Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq advising the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”). On May 21, 2025, the Company received an additional notification letter (the “Second Notice”) from Nasdaq advising the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements under the Rule as a result of its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”) and continued failure to file its Form 10-K, as previously communicated in the Initial Notice.

In response to the Initial Notice and the Second Notice, on June 16, 2025, the Company submitted a letter to Nasdaq requesting an exception to extend the Company’s listing on Nasdaq for 180 days, until October 13, 2025. On June 17, 2025, the Company received a letter (the “Denial Letter”) from Nasdaq stating that Nasdaq had determined that the Company did not provide a

definitive plan evidencing its ability to achieve compliance with applicable rules, and as a result, (i) the Company’s request for continued listing on Nasdaq was denied; (ii) the Company’s securities will be delisted from Nasdaq; (iii) trading of the Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on June 26, 2025; and (iv) a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

On June 26, 2025, the Company was delisted from Nasdaq. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company elected not to apply for its common stock to be traded on any of the markets operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. due to, among other things, the associated costs.

Prior to its delisting, the Board authorized the issuance of one share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Share”), to Christopher Lien, for the purchase price of $1.00 on April 25, 2025. The Preferred Share is entitled to vote only at a meeting of stockholders concerning a proposal for the sale, lease, or exchange of the Debtor’s assets, a proposal for the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Debtor, or any proposal related to the foregoing (each, a “Proposal”). At any such meeting, if the number of shares of Common Stock that voted “for” any such Proposal is greater than the number of shares of Common Stock that voted “against” or “abstain” on such Proposal, then the Preferred Share entitles the holder to cast on each Proposal a number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date of the Stockholders’ Meeting. The holder of the Preferred Share is not entitled to receive dividends and may not transfer such share or any interest in such share to any other person or entity without the prior consent of the Board.

As of the Petition Date, there were 3,188,518 shares of common stock of Marin and one share of Series A Preferred Stock. The Company’s common stock is widely held by retail investors and no single holder owns more than 5% of the Company’s common stock.

4.3 Financial Condition and Events Leading
to the Commencement of the Chapter 11 Case

Since its founding, the Company has consistently operated at a loss; although it did experience year-over-year revenue growth from its commercial launch in 2008 through 2015 due to its differentiated product offering, enabling digital marketers to measure, manage, and optimize their digital advertising investments. Marin delivered financial lift and time savings relative to other offerings in the market during this period. In more recent times, beginning with the Company’s revenue decline in 2016, competitive offerings improved meaningfully (especially the free or low-cost offerings from the leading publishers), which put significant pressure on the Company’s new business and renewal activities. The Company undertook various efforts to innovate its product offerings, such as expanding publisher coverage and functionality, but these efforts have proven insufficient to stem the overall decline in the Company’s revenues.

Although, as discussed above, the Company undertook various restructuring initiatives, including multiple reductions in force over the past six months, the Company continues to incur significant operating losses. As a result, in April 2025, the Board determined that it was in the best interests of shareholders to approve a voluntary dissolution and liquidation of the Company (but subject to the Company’s ability to abandon or delay the Plan of Dissolution), including liquidation

of its assets, settlement of its liabilities, and the deregistration of Marin’s common stock with the SEC.

In making its determination to approve the dissolution, the Board considered a number of factors, including but not limited to the Company’s (i) continued declining revenue, (ii) sustained and significant operating losses, (iii) dwindling cash resources, (iv) inability to raise additional capital in both the public and private markets, and (v) reduced ability to pursue its customer pipeline and maintain customer accounts with reduced headcount as a result of reductions in force.

The Board also considered several potential strategic alternatives, but ultimately decided winding up the Company’s operations was in the best interests of all stakeholders. Specifically, and as discussed further below, the Company engaged an investment banker and a financial advisor and conducted an evaluation to identify strategic alternatives, such as a merger, asset sale, or other corporate transaction. The purpose of these efforts was to identify a strategic transaction that would have a reasonable likelihood of providing value to Marin’s shareholders in excess of the amount the shareholders would receive in a liquidation. However, these efforts were unsuccessful. As a result, the Board decided that dissolution was the preferred strategy among the alternatives then available and in the best interests its shareholders.

Accordingly, the Board approved the Dissolution pursuant to the Plan of Dissolution, but subject to the Company’s ability to abandon or delay the Plan of Dissolution in accordance with the terms thereof, and recommended that Marin’s stockholders approve the Dissolution Proposal.

On June 11, 2025, Marin held a special meeting of stockholders of Marin (the “Special Meeting”) and held a vote to approve the voluntary dissolution and liquidation (the “Dissolution”) of Marin pursuant to the Plan of Dissolution, but subject to Marin’s ability to abandon or delay the Plan of Dissolution in accordance with the terms thereof. The majority of the holders of common stock that voted on the proposal and the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock voted to approve the proposal, and the proposal passed.

As discussed above, prior to the Board’s approval of the Plan of Dissolution, the Company engaged advisors and conducted an evaluation to identify strategic alternatives for the Company (the “Prepetition Sale Process”).

In 2018, Marin first engaged investment banker Evercore Inc. (“Evercore”) to explore potential strategic options for the Company, which commenced a multi-round process.3 During Marin’s most recent push to identify strategic alternatives for the Company, over 39 parties were contacted, and in total, the Company or Evercore made management presentations to approximately 17 parties. These efforts culminated in two parties submitting non-binding indications of interest to the Board in the fall of 2024.

After evaluating both indications of interest, the Board selected the highest and best offer and began to engage in exclusive negotiations with a potential buyer for an asset sale of Marin in November 2024. Ultimately, the negotiations with the potential buyer were unsuccessful, and in January 2025, the negotiations terminated.

On February 1, 2025, another potential buyer contacted Marin and provided an indication of interest. Over the next two months, this potential buyer and Marin worked on an asset purchase agreement, including related diligence and obtaining consents from critical third parties. In early April 2025, this potential buyer indicated that it no longer wanted to continue discussions with Marin and negotiations terminated. Based on the alternatives then available, the Board concluded on April 9, 2025, that dissolution was the preferred strategy and in the best interests its shareholders, and proceeded to approve the Plan of Dissolution.

One day after the Board approved the Plan of Dissolution, an affiliate of the Plan Sponsor contacted Marin. Marin, without the assistance of its investment bankers, then engaged in discussions with Kaxxa concerning the sale of the Company to be effectuated through a pre-negotiated chapter 11 plan of reorganization. On May 30, 2025, these discussions resulted in the Kaxxa LOI, and subsequently, the RSA.

SECTION 5
The Chapter 11 Case

The following is a brief description of certain material events that have occurred during the Chapter 11 Case.

5.1 First Day and Other Early Relief

In order to facilitate the Chapter 11 Case, minimize disruption to the Debtor’s affairs, and preserve the value of the Estate, the Debtor filed motions with the Bankruptcy Court on or shortly after the Petition Date seeking certain relief, including, without limitation:

(a) authority to honor and pay certain prepetition workforce compensation and expenses and other related obligations, subject to certain caps, which was granted pursuant to interim and final orders entered on July 3, 2025 and July 29, 2025, respectively;

(b) authority to continue using the Debtor’s existing cash management system and the provision of other related relief, which was granted pursuant to interim and final orders entered on July 3, 2025 and July 29, 2025, respectively;

(c) approval of notification and hearing procedures for certain transfers of and declarations of worthlessness with respect to common stock of Marin, which was granted pursuant to interim and final orders entered on July 3, 2025 and July 29, 2025, respectively; and

(d) the appointment of Donlin, Recano & Company, LLC as the claims and noticing agent in the Chapter 11 Case.

5.2 DIP Financing/Cash Collateral Relief

As set forth in the Debtor’s motion for approval of the DIP Financing (the “DIP Financing Motion”) [Docket No. 5], absent immediate access to Cash Collateral and obtaining the DIP Financing, the Debtor would be unable to sustain operations; maintain business relationships; satisfy working capital, operational, and general corporate needs; or achieve a successful sale and plan through the chapter 11 process. Accordingly, as of the Petition Date, the Debtor had an urgent and immediate need for entry of the Interim DIP Order. After extensive good faith and arms’ length negotiations, the Debtor and the DIP Lender / Prepetition Lender ultimately agreed on the terms of the DIP Note and DIP Documents and consensual use of Cash Collateral. The Debtor also contacted various other third party funding sources about the possibility of providing debtor in possession financing to the Debtor.

Ultimately, given the Prepetition Lender’s senior collateral position in intellectual property assets of the Debtor and unwillingness to consent to any priming in favor of any third party, the DIP Lender was the only party willing to lend money to the Debtor on a postpetition basis. The DIP Lender is affiliated with the Plan Sponsor.

The DIP Facility consists of senior secured superpriority term loans in an aggregate new money principal amount of up to $1,200,000, including $500,000 on an interim basis pursuant to the Interim DIP Order, subject to certain challenge rights as set forth in the DIP Orders. Subject to the Carve Out (as defined in the Interim DIP Order) and certain permitted liens, the DIP Lender was granted perfected post-petition security interests in and liens on substantially all pre and postpetition property of the Debtor or its estate. Further, the DIP Lender was granted, pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, an allowed super-priority administrative expense claim for all DIP Obligations, subject only to the Carve Out and certain permitted liens.

The Court entered the Interim DIP Order granting the DIP Financing Motion on an interim basis subject to the terms therein on July 3, 2025 [Docket No. 28]. The DIP Financing Motion was approved by the Court on a final basis subject to the terms of the Final DIP Order on July 29, 2025 [Docket No. 79].

5.3 Approval of RSA

On July 9, 2025, Marin filed its Motion for Entry of an Order Authorizing the Debtor’s Assumption of the Restructuring Support Agreement [Docket No. 37] (the “RSA Motion”). Through the RSA Motion, the Debtor seeks authorization to assume the RSA with the DIP Lender and Plan Sponsor, which provides the foundation for the Debtor’s consensual restructuring and this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Importantly, the RSA provides for, among other things, (i) the reorganization of the Debtor by retiring, canceling, extinguishing, or discharging all Interests; (ii) the funding of the Plan Consideration by the Plan Sponsor on the Effective Date; (iii) distribution of Available Cash to holders of Allowed Claims and Interests in accordance with the priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code or as otherwise agreed; and (iv) the issuance of 100% of the Reorganized Debtor New Equity to the Plan Sponsor.

The RSA Motion was approved by the Court on July 30, 2025 [Docket No. 87].

5.4 No Creditors’ Committee

As of the date of hereof, no committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in the Chapter 11 Case.

5.5 Retention of Professionals

The Debtor filed applications or motions, as applicable, to employ certain professionals, including Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP as bankruptcy counsel in the Chapter 11 Case [Docket No. 38]; Armanino Advisory, LLC as financial advisor to the Debtor [Docket No. 59]; Fenwick & West LLP as special corporate counsel [Docket No. 36]; and Donlin, Recano & Company, LLC as administrative advisor [Docket No. 39].

5.6 Debtor’s Schedules and Statement of Financial Affairs

The Debtor filed with the Court its Schedules and Statement of Financial Affairs on July 15, 2025 [Docket Nos. 47 and 48].

SECTION 6
confirmation procedures

6.1 Confirmation Hearing

On July 30, 2025, the Court entered an order conditionally approving the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan (the “Conditional Approval and Procedures Order”) and determining that the Debtor does not need to solicit acceptance in support of the Plan under section 1126(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Confirmation Hearing has been scheduled for August 28, 2025 at 10:30 a.m. (Eastern Time) to consider (a) final approval of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan as providing adequate information pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code and (b) confirmation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan pursuant to section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Confirmation Hearing may be adjourned from time to time by the Debtor without further notice, except for an announcement of the adjourned date made at the Confirmation Hearing or by filing a notice with the Court.

Copies of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan shall be available on the Claims Agent’s website at www.donlinrecano.com/mrin.

6.2 Procedures for Objections

Any objection to final approval of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan as providing adequate information pursuant to section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code and/or confirmation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan must be made in writing and filed with the Court by no later than August 21, 2025 at 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).

6.3 Requirements for Confirmation

The Court will confirm the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan only if it meets all the applicable requirements of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. Among the requirements for confirmation in the Chapter 11 Case is that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan be: (i) accepted by all Impaired Classes of Claims and Interests or, if rejected by an Impaired Class, that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan “does not discriminate unfairly” against, and is “fair and equitable” with respect to, such Class; and (ii) feasible. The Court must also find that:

(a) the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan has classified Claims and Interests in a permissible manner;

(b) the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with the technical requirements of chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; and

(c) the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan has been proposed in good faith.

The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies, or will comply, with all such requirements.

6.4 Classification of Claims and Interests

Section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan must classify the claims and interests of a Debtor’s creditors and equity interest holders. In accordance with section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan divides Claims and Interests into Classes and sets forth the treatment for each Class (other than those claims which pursuant to section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code need not be and have not been classified).

Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code requires the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan to place a Claim or Interest in a particular Class only if such Claim or Interest is substantially similar to the other Claims or Interests in such class. The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan creates separate Classes to deal respectively with Priority Non-Tax Claims, various Secured Claims, Unsecured Claims, and Interests. The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan’s classifications place substantially similar Claims or Interests in the same Class and, thus, meet the requirements of section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Bankruptcy Code also requires that a plan provide the same treatment for each claim or interest of a particular class unless the claim holder or interest holder agrees to a less favorable treatment of its claim or interest. The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with such standard. If the Court finds otherwise, however, it could deny confirmation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan if the holders of Claims or Interests affected do not consent to the treatment afforded them under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

A Claim or Interest is placed in a particular Class only to the extent that the Claim or Interest falls within the description of that Class and is classified in other Classes to the extent that any portion of the Claim or Interest falls within the description of such other Classes. A Claim also

is placed in a particular Class for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan only to the extent that such Claim is an Allowed Claim in that Class and such Claim has not been paid, released, or otherwise settled prior to the Effective Date.

The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan has classified all Claims and Interests in compliance with the provisions of section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable case law. It is possible that a holder of a Claim or Interest may challenge the Debtor’s classification of Claims or Interests and that the Court may find that a different classification is required for the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan to be confirmed. If such a situation develops, the Debtor intends, in accordance with the terms of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, to make such permissible modifications to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan as may be necessary to permit its confirmation.

The amount of any Impaired Claim that ultimately is Allowed by the Court may vary from any estimated Allowed amount of such Claim and, accordingly, the total Claims that are ultimately Allowed by the Court with respect to each Impaired Class of Claims may also vary from any estimates contained herein with respect to the aggregate Claims in any Impaired Class. Thus, the actual recovery ultimately received by a particular holder of an Allowed Claim may be adversely or favorably affected by the aggregate amount of Claims Allowed in the applicable Class. Additionally, any changes to any of the assumptions underlying the estimated Allowed amounts could result in material adjustments to recovery estimates provided herein or the actual Distribution received by creditors. The projected recoveries are based on information available to the Debtor as of the date hereof and reflect the Debtor's views as of the date hereof only.

The classification of Claims and Interests and the nature of distributions to members of each Class are summarized herein. The Debtor believes that the consideration, if any, provided under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan to holders of Allowed Claims reflects an appropriate resolution of their Allowed Claims taking into account the differing nature and priority of such Claims and Interests. The Court must find, however, that a number of statutory tests are met before it may confirm the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Many of these tests are designed to protect the interests of holders of Claims or Interests who are not entitled to vote on the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, but who will be bound by the provisions of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan if it is confirmed by the Court.

6.5 No Impaired Classes

Pursuant to section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, only the holders of Claims in Classes Impaired by the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and receiving a payment or Distribution under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan may vote to accept or reject the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Pursuant to section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code, a Class of Claims or Interests may be Impaired if the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan alters the legal, equitable, or contractual rights of the holders of such Claims or Interests treated in such Class. The holders of Claims or Interests not Impaired by the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan are deemed to accept the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and do not have the right to vote on the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. The holders of Claims or Interests in any Class which will not receive any payment or Distribution or retain any property pursuant to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan are deemed to reject the Combined Disclosure Statement

and Plan and do not have the right to vote. Finally, the holders of Claims or Interests whose Claims or Interests are not classified under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan are not entitled to vote on the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS UNDER THE PLAN ARE UNIMPAIRED AND DEEMED TO CONSENT TO THE PLAN. ACCORDINGLY, NO BALLOTS FOR ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN ARE BEING PROVIDED TO HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS UNDER THE PLAN.

6.6 Confirmation without Necessary Acceptances; Cramdown

In the event that any impaired class of claims or interests does not accept a plan, a debtor nevertheless may move for confirmation of the plan. A plan may be confirmed, even if it is not accepted by all impaired classes, if the plan has been accepted by at least one impaired class of claims, determined without including any acceptance of the plan by any insider holding a claim in that class, and the plan meets the “cramdown” requirements set forth in section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that a court find that a plan (a) “does not discriminate unfairly” and (b) is “fair and equitable,” with respect to each non-accepting impaired class of claims or interests.

To the extent that any Impaired Class rejects the Plan or is deemed to have rejected the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Debtor shall request confirmation of the Plan under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtor reserves the right to alter, amend, modify, revoke, or withdraw the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or any schedule or exhibit, including to amend or modify it to satisfy the requirements of section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, if necessary, subject to the written approval of the Plan Sponsor.

The concept of “unfair discrimination” is not defined in the Bankruptcy Code, but has been suggested in recent case law to arise when a difference in a plan’s treatment of two classes of equal priority results in a materially lower percentage recovery for the non-accepting class. Based upon its understanding of existing case law, the Debtor does not believe that the Plan unfairly discriminates against any Class.

The Bankruptcy Code provides a nonexclusive definition of the phrase “fair and equitable.” To determine whether a plan is “fair and equitable,” the Bankruptcy Code establishes “cramdown” tests for secured creditors, unsecured creditors, and equity holders, as follows:

a. Secured Creditors. Either (i) each impaired secured creditor retains its liens securing its secured claim and receives on account of its secured claim deferred Cash payments having a present value equal to the amount of its allowed secured claim, (ii) each impaired secured creditor realizes the “indubitable equivalent” of its allowed secured claim, or (iii) the property securing the claim is sold free and clear of liens with such liens to attach to the proceeds of the sale and the treatment of such liens on proceeds to be as provided in clause (i) or (ii) above.

b. Unsecured Creditors. Either (i) each impaired unsecured creditor receives or retains under the plan property of a value equal to the amount of its allowed claim

or (ii) the holders of claims and interests that are junior to the claims of the dissenting class will not receive any property under the plan.

c. Interests. Either (i) each holder of an equity interest will receive or retain under the plan property of a value equal to the greatest of the fixed liquidation preference to which such holder is entitled, the fixed redemption price to which such holder is entitled or the value of the interest or (ii) the holder of an interest that is junior to the nonaccepting class will not receive or retain any property under the plan.

Under the terms of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, the Debtor believes that the distributions provided under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan satisfy the absolute priority rule. Further, all Holders of Claims and Interests are Unimpaired under the Plan and deemed to consent to the Plan.

6.7 Feasibility

Section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that confirmation of a plan not be likely to be followed by the liquidation, or the need for further financial reorganization, of the Debtor or any successor to the Debtor (unless such liquidation or reorganization is proposed in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan). Here, the Plan Sponsor has committed to fund the Restructuring with the Plan Consideration and to acquire the Reorganized Debtor New Equity. Accordingly, the Debtor believes that the Plan is feasible and the Reorganized Debtor will not require a further reorganization. Further, no Distributions to Creditors or Interest Holders are dependent on any metrics related to the Reorganized Debtor, such as the Reorganized Debtor’s profitability. Rather, the entirety of the Plan Consideration will be funded in cash on the Effective Date. As a result, the feasibility of the Plan is assured.

6.8 Best Interests Test and Liquidation Analysis

Even if a plan is accepted by the holders of each class of claims and interests, the Bankruptcy Code requires the Court to determine that such plan is in the best interests of all holders of claims or interests that are impaired by that plan and that have not accepted the plan. The “best interests” test, as set forth in section 1129(a)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, requires a court to find either that all members of an impaired class of claims or interests have accepted the plan or that the plan will provide a member who has not accepted the plan with a recovery of property of a value, as of the effective date of the plan, that is not less than the amount that such holder would recover if the debtor were liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Given that all Holders of Claims and Interests are Unimpaired under the Plan, the “best interests” test does not apply. Nonetheless, even if such test applied, it is easily satisfied by the Plan.

To calculate the probable distribution to holders of each impaired class of claims and interests if the debtor was liquidated under chapter 7, a court must first determine the aggregate dollar amount that would be generated from a debtor’s assets if its chapter 11 case were converted to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. To determine if a plan is in the best interests of each impaired class, the present value of the distributions from the proceeds of a liquidation of the debtor’s unencumbered assets and properties, after subtracting the amounts attributable to the

costs, expenses, and administrative claims associated with a chapter 7 liquidation, must be compared with the value offered to such impaired classes under the plan. If the hypothetical liquidation distribution to holders of claims or interests in any impaired class is greater than the distributions to be received by such parties under the plan, then such plan is not in the best interests of the holders of claims or interests in such impaired class.

If the Chapter 11 Case were converted to a chapter 7 proceeding, first and foremost, the Estate and its general unsecured creditors would not have the benefit of the Plan Consideration, given that the Plan Sponsor’s agreement to provide the Plan Consideration is premised upon the occurrence of the Effective Date. Absent the Plan Consideration, general unsecured creditors would likely receive no or de minimis recovery in a chapter 7 proceeding. Additionally, equity holders would receive no recovery in a chapter 7 proceeding. Further, the Estate would incur the costs of payment of a statutorily allowed commission to the chapter 7 trustee, as well as the costs of counsel and other professionals retained by the trustee. The Debtor believes that such amounts would exceed the amount of expenses that will be incurred in implementing the Plan and winding up the affairs of the Debtor in the Chapter 11 Case. The Debtor contemplates an orderly administration and winding down of the Estate by parties that are already familiar with the Debtor, its remaining assets and affairs, and its creditors and liabilities. Such familiarity will allow the Plan Administrator to complete liquidation of the remaining assets (including prosecution of the applicable Causes of Action), and distribute the net proceeds to creditors and equity holders more efficiently and expeditiously than a chapter 7 trustee. Additionally, the Estate would suffer additional delays, as a chapter 7 trustee and his/her counsel took time to develop a necessary learning curve in order to complete the administration of the Estate (including the prosecution of the applicable Causes of Action). Also, a new time period for the filing of claims would commence under Bankruptcy Rule 1019(2), possibly resulting in the filing of additional Claims against the Estate. Finally, it is unlikely, in light of the Debtor’s extensive prepetition marketing efforts and prior decision to effectuate a plan of dissolution, that another buyer would be ready, willing, and able to purchase the Debtor’s assets for any material amount.

Based upon the foregoing, the Debtor believes that creditors and equity holders will receive at least as much or more under the Plan than they would receive if the Chapter 11 Case were converted to chapter 7 case.

SECTION 7
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS, TAX CONSEQUENCES, AND OTHER DISCLOSURES

7.1 Certain Risk Factors to be Considered

THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH BELOW. THESE FACTORS SHOULD NOT, HOWEVER, BE REGARDED AS CONSTITUTING THE ONLY RISKS INVOLVED IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION.

7.2 The Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan May Not Be Confirmed

There is no assurance that the Court, which may exercise substantial discretion as a court of equity, will confirm the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. The Court could decline to confirm the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan if it finds that any of the statutory requirements for confirmation had not been met. As is described in greater detail in Section 6 herein, section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code sets forth the requirements for confirmation of a chapter 11 plan. While, as more fully set forth in Section 6 herein, the Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with or will comply with all such requirements, there can be no guarantee that the Court will agree.

Moreover, there can be no assurance that modifications to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan will not be required by the Bankruptcy Court for Confirmation or that such modifications would not necessitate the solicitation of votes. If the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is not confirmed, it is unclear what distributions holders of Claims and Interest Holders ultimately would receive with respect to their Claims and Interests in a subsequent plan of liquidation. If an alternative could not be agreed to, it is possible that the Debtor would have to liquidate its remaining assets in chapter 7, in which case it is likely that the holders of Allowed Claims and Interest Holders would receive substantially less favorable treatment than they would receive under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

7.3 Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims
and Interests Under the Combined Disclosure Statement
and Plan May be Inconsistent with Projections

Projected Distributions are based upon good faith estimates of the total amount of Claims and Interests ultimately Allowed and the funds available for Distribution. There can be no assurance that the estimated Claim and Interest amounts set forth in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan are correct. These estimated amounts are based on certain assumptions with respect to a variety of factors. Both the actual amount of Allowed Claims and Interests in a particular Class and the funds available for distribution to such Class may differ from the Debtor’s estimates. If the total amount of Allowed Claims and Interests in a Class is higher than the Debtor’s estimates, or the funds available for distribution to such Class are lower than the Debtor’s estimates, the percentage recovery to holders of Allowed Claims and Interests in such Class will be less than projected.

7.4 Objections to Classification of Claims

Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that a plan may place a claim or an equity interest in a particular class only if such claim or equity interest is substantially similar to the other claims or equity interests in such class. As is described in greater detail in Section 6.4 herein, the Debtor believes that the classification of Claims and Interests under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with the requirements set forth in the Bankruptcy Code. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance the Court will reach the same conclusion.

To the extent that the Court finds that a different classification is required for the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan to be confirmed, the Debtor would seek to modify the Combined

Disclosure Statement and Plan to provide for whatever classification might be required for Confirmation. Any such reclassification of Claims, although subject to the notice and hearing requirements of the Bankruptcy Code, could adversely affect the Class in which such holder was initially a member, or any other Class under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, by changing the composition of such Class and requiring a vote for approval of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. There can be no assurance that the Court, after finding that a classification was inappropriate and requiring a reclassification, would approve the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan based upon such reclassification.

The Bankruptcy Code also requires that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan provide the same treatment for each Claim or Interest of a particular Class unless the holder of a particular Claim or Interest agrees to a less favorable treatment of its Claim or Interest. The Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan complies with the requirement of equal treatment. To the extent that the Court finds that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan does not satisfy such requirement, the Court could deny confirmation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Issues or disputes relating to classification and/or treatment could result in a delay in the confirmation and consummation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan and could increase the risk that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan will not be consummated.

7.5 Failure to Consummate the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan

Although the Debtor believes that the Effective Date will occur and may occur quickly after the Confirmation Date, there can be no assurance as to such timing, or as to whether the Effective Date will, in fact, occur.

7.6 The Releases May Not Be Approved

There can be no assurance that the releases, as provided in Section 16.3 herein, will be granted. Failure of the Court to grant such relief may result in a plan that differs from the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan or the Plan not being confirmed.

7.7 Reductions to Estimated Creditor Recoveries

The Allowed amount of Claims could be greater than projected, which, in turn, could cause the amount of distributions to Interest Holders to be reduced substantially.

There are a number of material income tax considerations, risks, and uncertainties associated with the plan of liquidation of the Debtor described in this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN ARE COMPLEX. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL CONSTITUTE TAX ADVICE. THE TAX CONSEQUENCES ARE IN MANY CASES UNCERTAIN AND MAY VARY DEPENDING ON A HOLDER’S PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES. ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AGAINST OR INTERESTS IN THE DEBTOR ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS ABOUT THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN, AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN.

7.8 Releases, Exculpations, and Injunctions

This Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan contains certain releases, exculpations, and injunction language. Parties are urged to read these provisions carefully to understand how Confirmation and consummation of the Plan will affect any Claim, Interest, right, or action with regard to the Debtor and certain third parties.

THE COMBINED DISCLOSURE STATEMENT AND PLAN SHALL BIND ALL HOLDERS OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS AGAINST THE DEBTOR TO THE FULLEST EXTENT AUTHORIZED OR PROVIDED UNDER THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE AND ALL OTHER APPLICABLE LAW.

7.9 Alternatives to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan

If the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is not confirmed and consummated, the theoretical alternatives to the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan would be (a) formulation of an alternative chapter 11 plan, (b) conversion of the Chapter 11 Case to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (c) dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case. The Debtor does not believe that any of these alternatives, even if viable, would afford holders of Claims or Interests a greater recovery than what is provided by the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

If the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is not confirmed, then the Debtor or any other party in interest could attempt to formulate a different plan. The additional costs (including, among other amounts, additional professional fees, all of which would constitute Administrative Claims (subject to allowance thereof)), however, may be so significant that one or more parties in interest could request that the Chapter 11 Case be converted to chapter 7. At this time, the Debtor does not believe that there are viable alternative plans available to the Debtor.

If the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is not confirmed, the Chapter 11 Case may be converted to a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, pursuant to which a trustee would be elected or appointed to liquidate and distribute the Debtor’s remaining assets in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. As discussed above, the Debtor believes that the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan provides a better outcome for holders of Claims than a chapter 7 liquidation would provide.

If the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan is not confirmed, the Chapter 11 Case also could be dismissed. Among other effects, dismissal would result in the termination of the automatic stay, thus permitting creditors to assert state-law rights and remedies against the Debtor and its assets, likely to the detriment of other creditors. While it is impossible to predict precisely what would happen in the event the Chapter 11 Case is dismissed, it is unlikely that dismissal would result in a ratable distribution of the Debtor’s assets among creditors as provided in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. Thus, the vast majority of creditors, including general unsecured creditors, could expect to receive less in the dismissal scenario than they would receive under the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

SECTION 8
UNCLASSIFIED CLAIMS

8.1 Unclassified Claims

In accordance with section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, Administrative Claims (including DIP Facility Claims) and Priority Tax Claims have not been classified for purposes of voting or receiving Distributions. . Rather, all such Claims are treated separately as unclassified Claims as set forth in this Section 8.1, and the holders thereof are not entitled to vote on the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan

8.2 Administrative Claims

(a) Administrative Claims

Except to the extent that a Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim has been paid by the Debtor prior to the Effective Date or such other treatment has been agreed to by the Holder of such Administrative Claim and the Plan Administrator, each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim (other than a Professional Fee Claim and a DIP Facility Claim, which shall be treated in accordance with Sections 8.2(b) and (c), respectively), in full and final satisfaction, release, settlement and discharge of such Administrative Claim, shall be paid in full, in Cash, in such amounts as (a) are incurred in the ordinary course of business by the Debtor when and as such Claim becomes due and owing, (b) are Allowed by the Bankruptcy Court upon the later of the Effective Date, the date upon which there is a Final Order allowing such Administrative Claim, or any other date specified in such order, or (c) with respect to statutory fees due pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a)(6), as and when due under applicable law.

Holders of Administrative Claims (including, without limitation, Professionals requesting compensation or reimbursement of such expenses pursuant to sections 327, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code) that do not file such requests by the applicable deadline provided for herein may be subject to objection for untimeliness and may be prohibited by order of the Bankruptcy Court from asserting such claims against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Estate, or their successors or assigns, or their property. Any objection to Professional Fee Claims shall be filed on or before the objection deadline specified in the application for final compensation or order of the Bankruptcy Court.

All fees due and payable under 28 U.S.C. § 1930 that have not been paid shall be paid on or before the Effective Date.

(b) Professional Fees

Professionals requesting compensation or reimbursement of expenses pursuant to sections 327, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code or required to file fee applications by order of the Bankruptcy Court for services rendered prior to the Effective Date must file and serve pursuant to applicable rules and guidelines, an application for final allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. All such applications for final allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses will be subject to the authorization and approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Upon approval of the fee applications by the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtor or Plan Administrator shall pay Professionals all of their respective accrued and Allowed fees and reimbursement of expenses arising prior to the Effective Date, plus reasonable fees for services rendered, and actual and necessary costs incurred, in connection with the filing, service, and prosecution of any applications for allowance of Professional Fees pending on the Effective Date or filed and/or served after the Effective Date. Any excess amounts remaining in the Professional Fee Reserve after payment of Allowed Professional Fees shall be distributed in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall.

On the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator shall fund, to the extent not already funded, the Professional Fee Reserve in an amount equal to the total estimated amount (based on the applicable professionals’ good faith estimates) of accrued and unpaid (a) Professional Fee Claims incurred by a Professional and which have not yet been approved by the Bankruptcy Court; and (b) Professional Fee Claims approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The Professional Fee Reserve shall be held in trust by Debtor’s counsel for the applicable professionals until all allowed fee and expense claims have been paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the Professional Fee Reserve does not constitute a cap or limitation upon the obligation to pay Professional Fee Claims pursuant to this Plan.

(c) DIP Facility Claims

The DIP Facility Claim shall be Allowed in the full amount of all amounts advanced under the DIP Loan, plus accrued interest. Pursuant to the Subscription Option, the DIP Lender shall have the option to convert up to 100% of the principal amount of the Allowed DIP Facility Claim into shares of Reorganized Debtor New Equity at a rate of 10% of the Allowed DIP Lender Claim for 60 shares of Reorganized Debtor New Equity, up to a maximum of 100% of the Allowed DIP Facility Claim for 600 shares out of the total 1,000 shares of Reorganized Debtor New Equity.

The Plan Consideration will be increased by the amount of the Allowed DIP Facility Claim that is not exchanged for Reorganized Debtor New Equity (the “Remaining DIP Facility Claim”). The Remaining DIP Facility Claim will either (a) be paid in full in cash from the increased Plan Consideration on the Effective Date, or (b) if agreed by the Plan Sponsor and DIP Lender, be deemed repaid through a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the increased Plan Consideration.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the DIP Orders, on the Effective Date, the Debtor shall draw down the available balance of the DIP Facility and any such amounts shall be deemed Available Cash and available to the Plan Administrator for distribution to Holders of Claims and Interests in accordance with the Distribution Waterfall.

For the avoidance of doubt, the election, partial election, or non-election of the Subscription Option by the DIP Lender will not impact recoveries under the Plan by the Holders of Claims and Interests other than the DIP Lender.

8.3 Priority Tax Claims

Except to the extent that a Holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim agrees to a less favorable treatment, in exchange for full and final satisfaction of each Allowed Priority Tax Claim, the Plan Administrator shall pay each holder of an Allowed Priority Tax Claim the full unpaid

amount of such Allowed Priority Tax Claim on the latest of the following dates: (i) on or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, (ii) on or as soon as practicable after the date such Allowed Priority Tax Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, and (iii) the date such Allowed Priority Tax Claim is payable under applicable non-bankruptcy law.

SECTION 9
CLASSIFICATION OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

9.1 Summary of Classification

The provisions of this Section 9 govern Claims against and Interests in the Debtor.

The following table designates the Classes of Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtor and specifies which of those Classes are (i) Impaired or Unimpaired by the Plan, (ii) entitled to vote to accept or reject the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan in accordance with section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) deemed to accept or reject the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan. A Claim or portion thereof is classified in a particular Class only to the extent that such Claim or portion thereof qualifies within the description of such Class and is classified in a different Class to the extent that the portion of such Claim qualifies within the description of such different Class.

SECTION 11
DISTRIBUTIONS TO HOLDERS OF ALLOWED CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

11.1 Distribution Dates

The Plan Administrator shall make Distributions to Holders of Claims and Interests. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, make a full or

partial Pro Rata Distribution to the Holders of Claims and Interests on the Initial Distribution Date or a Subsequent Distribution Date.

11.2 Subsequent Distributions

Any Distribution not made on the Initial Distribution Date or a Subsequent Distribution Date because the Claim relating to such Distribution had not been Allowed on that Distribution Date shall be held by the Plan Administrator for Distribution on any Subsequent Distribution Date after such Claim is Allowed. No interest shall accrue or be paid on the unpaid amount of any Distribution.

11.3 Distribution Record Date

Except as otherwise provided in a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the transferees of Claims and Interests that are transferred pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 3001 on or prior to the Distribution Record Date will be treated as the Holders of those Claims for all purposes, notwithstanding that any period provided by Bankruptcy Rule 3001 for objecting to the transfer may not have expired by the Distribution Record Date. The Plan Administrator shall have no obligation to recognize any transfer of any Claim occurring after the Distribution Record Date. In making any Distribution with respect to any Claim, the Plan Administrator shall be entitled instead to recognize and deal with, for all purposes hereunder, only the Entity that is listed on the proof of claim filed with respect thereto or on the Schedules as the Holder thereof as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date and upon such other evidence or record of transfer or assignment that is known to the Plan Administrator as of the Distribution Record Date.

11.4 Manner of Cash Payments Under the Plan

Cash payments made pursuant to the Plan shall be in United States dollars by checks drawn on a domestic bank selected by the Plan Administrator or by wire transfer from a domestic bank, at the option of the Plan Administrator. Any and all Distributions and/or written communications pertaining to Distributions shall be made to Creditors and Holders of Interests at each Creditor’s or Interest Holder’s respective address listed in the Claims Register, unless the Plan Administrator receives a written change of address form from a Creditor or Interest Holder consistent with the terms of the Plan.

11.5 Time Bar to Cash Payments by Check

Distribution checks issued to Holders of Allowed Claims and Interests, as applicable, shall be null and void if not negotiated within ninety (90) days after the date of issuance thereof. The Plan Administrator shall not reissue any check except upon directly receiving a request in writing from the Holder of Allowed Claim Interest that was originally issued such check within one-hundred and eighty (180) days of the disbursement of the Distribution. If the 180-day period elapses without the Creditor requesting the check be reissued, the unresponsive Holder’s Distribution shall be deemed unclaimed property as provided in the Plan. The foregoing notwithstanding, ninety (90) days after the final Distribution under section 1194 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Plan Administrator shall stop payment on any check remaining unpaid, the corresponding Distribution shall be deemed unclaimed property, and all unclaimed property shall be redistributed to Holders of Allowed Claims and Interests.

11.6 Tax Identification Numbers

The Plan Administrator may require any Holder of a Claim or Interest to furnish its taxpayer identification number as assigned by the Internal Revenue Service by submitting a Form W-8, Form W-9, or other form completed in writing to the Plan Administrator and may condition any Distribution to any Holder of a Claim or Interest upon receipt of such completed form. If a Holder of a Claim or Interest does not timely provide the Plan Administrator with its taxpayer identification number in the manner and by the deadline established by the Plan Administrator—to be not less than forty-five (45) days from the service of the request to the Holder of the Claim or Interest for its tax identification information—then the Plan Administrator may set aside the Holder’s Distribution for a period of one-hundred-and-eighty (180) days following service of the request. If the Holder provides the information in the manner requested in the 180-day period, the Plan Administrator shall disburse the set aside Distribution, without interest, to the Holder. However, if the Holder fails to provide the requested information within the 180-day period, then the unresponsive Holder’s Distribution shall be irreversibly deemed “unclaimed property” and redistributed to the other Holders of Allowed Claims and Interests, as applicable, in accordance with the Plan.

SECTION 12
PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING DISPUTED CLAIMS AND REDISTRIBUTIONS

12.1 No Distributions Pending Allowance

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall not distribute any Cash or other property on account of any Disputed Claim unless and until such Claim becomes Allowed. Nothing contained herein, however, shall be construed to prohibit or require payment or Distribution on account of any undisputed portion of a Claim.

12.2 Authority to Object to and Resolve Disputed Claims and Interests

Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court after notice and a hearing, subject to the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall have the right to make, file, prosecute, settle, withdraw, or resolve objections to Claims and Interests. The costs of pursuing the objections to Claims and/or Interests shall be borne by the Plan Administrator and paid pursuant to the Distribution Waterfall. From and after the Effective Date, all objections with respect to Disputed Claims or Interests shall be litigated to a Final Order except to the extent the Plan Administrator elects to withdraw any such objection, or the Plan Administrator and the Holder of the Claim or Interest elect to compromise, settle, or otherwise resolve any such objection, in which event they may settle, compromise, or otherwise resolve any Disputed Claim or Disputed Interest without approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

12.3 Objection Deadline

All objections to Claims and Interests shall be filed and served upon the applicable Holder of the Claim or Interest no later than the Claims Objection Deadline, as such may be extended by order of the Bankruptcy Court.

12.4 Estimation of Claims

At any time, (a) prior to the Effective Date, the Debtor, and (b) after the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator may request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim to the extent permitted by section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code regardless of whether the Debtor or the Plan Administrator has previously objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court shall have jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during Litigation concerning any objection to such Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal relating to any such objection. If the Bankruptcy Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount shall constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on the Claim, as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on the Claim, the Debtor or the Plan Administrator, as applicable, may elect to pursue supplemental proceedings to object to the ultimate allowance of the Claim. All of the aforementioned Claims objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdraw, or resolved by any mechanism of the Bankruptcy Court.

12.5 Disallowance of Claims

Except as otherwise agreed or ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, any and all proofs of claim filed after the Bar Date shall be treated as a Disputed Claim for purposes of Distribution without any further notice or action, and Holders of such Claims may not receive any Distributions on account of such Claims, unless on or before the Confirmation Date the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order deeming such Claim to be timely filed.

On the Confirmation Date, any Claim that is scheduled by the Debtor in the Schedules as disputed or listed at zero and as to which no Proof of Claim has been timely filed (or deemed timely filed by Final Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court) shall be deemed a Disallowed Claim.

Any Claims held by Entities from which property is recoverable under sections 542, 543, 550, or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or Entities that are transferees of transfers avoidable under section 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed disallowed pursuant to section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, and Holders of such Claims may not receive any Distributions on account of such Claims until such time as such Causes of Action the Debtor holds or may hold against any Entity have been resolved or a Bankruptcy Court order with respect thereto has been entered and all sums due, if any, to the Estate by that Entity have been turned over or paid to the Reorganized Debtor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator may assert any claim, counterclaim, setoff, or defense of the Debtor, Estate, or Reorganized Debtor in connection with the prosecution of any objection to a Disputed Claim.

12.6 Reserve Provisions for Disputed Claims

Before making any Distribution, the Plan Administrator shall reserve Cash required for distribution on Disputed Claims as if such Claims were Allowed as filed with any Disputed Claims that are unliquidated or contingent being reserved in an amount reasonably determined by the Plan Administrator (the “Disputed Claim Reserve”). On each Distribution Date after the Effective Date

in which the Plan Administrator makes Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims and/or Interests, the Plan Administrator shall retain on account of Disputed Claims an amount the Plan Administrator estimates is necessary to fund the Pro Rata share of such Distributions to Holders of Disputed Claims if such Claims were Allowed, with any Disputed Claims that are unliquidated or contingent being reserved in an amount reasonably determined by the Plan Administrator.

The Plan Administrator shall hold property in the Disputed Claim Reserve in trust for the benefit of the Holders of Disputed Claims and/or Interests that are ultimately determined to be Allowed. Each Disputed Claim Reserve shall be closed and extinguished by the Plan Administrator when all Distributions and other dispositions of Cash of other property required to be made hereunder will have been made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon closure of a Disputed Claim Reserve, all Cash or other property held in that Disputed Claim Reserve shall revest in and become unrestricted property of the Plan Administrator. All funds or other property that vest or revest in the Plan Administrator pursuant to this paragraph shall be used to pay the Plan Administrator in accordance with the Plan.

Except as expressly set forth in the Plan, neither the Debtor nor the Plan Administrator shall have any duty to fund any Disputed Claim Reserve except from the Plan Consideration and the Available Cash.

12.7 Books and Records

The Reorganized Debtor shall retain (and make available to the Plan Administrator as reasonably necessary) the Debtor’s books and records as of the Effective Date and/or copies thereof, subject to any appropriate restrictions on privileged matters, regardless of original form, manner or media.

SECTION 13
Treatment of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

13.1 Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Any executory contract or unexpired lease that has not expired by its own terms on or prior to the Effective Date and that (i) the Debtor has not assumed and/or assigned or rejected with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Effective Date, (ii) is not the subject of a motion to assume the same pending as of the Effective Date, or (iii) is not identified in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts, shall be deemed rejected by the Debtor, and the entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of such rejection pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. The executory contracts and unexpired lease identified in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts shall be assumed as set forth herein and the Plan Supplement as of the Effective Date.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumptions, assumptions and assignments, or rejections of the executory contracts or unexpired leases as set forth in the Plan or the Plan Supplement, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, that except as otherwise set forth herein, including for the avoidance of doubt, in Section 13.3 herein, all employment, retirement, indemnification, and other compensation or benefits agreements or arrangements shall be rejected,

and neither the Plan Sponsor nor Reorganized Debtor shall have any obligations in connection with any such employment, retirement, indemnification, and other compensation or benefits agreements or arrangements following the Effective Date. Nothing in this Section 13.1 shall be construed as an acknowledgement that a particular contract or agreement is executory or is properly characterized as a lease. Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, or in the Plan Supplement, assumptions or rejections of executory contracts and unexpired leases pursuant to the Plan are effective as of the Effective Date. Each executory contract or unexpired lease assumed pursuant to the Plan or by Bankruptcy Court order but not assigned to a third party before the Effective Date shall revest in and be fully enforceable by the Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, including in accordance with any amendments executed by the Debtor and the counterparties to the applicable executory contract or unexpired lease during this Chapter 11 Case and effective upon assumption by the Debtor; provided that, prior to the to the Effective Date and in connection with such assumption, any such terms that are rendered unenforceable by the provisions of the Plan or the Bankruptcy Code shall remain unenforceable solely in connection therewith.

The Debtor reserves the right to amend the Schedule of Assumed Contracts at any time prior to the Effective Date, (i) to delete any executory contract or unexpired lease and provide for its rejection under the Plan or otherwise, or (ii) to add any executory contract or unexpired lease and provide for its assumption and assignment under the Plan. The Debtor will provide notice of any amendment to the Schedule of Assumed Contracts to the party or parties to those agreements affected by the amendment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Insurance Policies shall not be considered Executory Contracts for purposes of this Section 13.1. As discussed in Section 13.3, the Insurance Policies shall remain in full force and effect following the Effective Date.

13.2 Rejection Claims; Cure of Defaults

All proofs of claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of executory contracts or unexpired leases pursuant to Confirmation of the Plan, if any, must be filed with the Claims Agent within thirty (30) days after the earlier of the Effective Date or an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such rejection. Any Claim arising from the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to Confirmation of the Plan that is not filed within such times will be subject to objection. All such Claims for which Proofs of Claim are timely and properly filed and ultimately Allowed will be treated as Unsecured Claims.

Any amount that must be paid under section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code to cure a default under and compensate the non-debtor party to an executory contract or unexpired lease to be assumed under the Plan is identified as the “Cure Payment” on the Schedule of Assumed Contracts. Unless the parties mutually agree to a different date, such payment shall be made by the Reorganized Debtor in Cash within ten (10) Business Days following the last of: (i) the Effective Date, (ii) entry of a Final Order resolving any disputes regarding (A) the amount of any Cure Payment, (B) the ability of the Reorganized Debtor to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a contract or lease to be assumed, to the extent required, or (C) any other matter pertaining to assumption and assignment, and (iii) the date on which such payment would otherwise be due in the ordinary

course of business in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable executory contract or unexpired lease.

Pending the Bankruptcy Court’s ruling on any such dispute, the executory contract or unexpired lease at issue shall be deemed assumed by the Debtor and vested in the Reorganized Debtor, unless otherwise agreed by the parties or ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. Any Person that is a party to an executory contract or unexpired lease that will be assumed and/or assigned under the Plan and that objects to such assumption or assignment (including the proposed Cure Payment) must file with the Bankruptcy Court and serve on parties entitled to notice a written statement and, if applicable, a supporting declaration stating the basis for its objection. This statement and, if applicable, declaration must be Filed and served on or before the deadline established by the Disclosure Statement Order. Any Person that fails to timely file and serve such a statement and, if applicable, a declaration shall be deemed to waive any and all objections to the proposed assumption and assignment (including the proposed Cure Payment) of its contract or lease. In the absence of a timely objection by a person that is a party to an executory contract or unexpired lease, the Confirmation Order shall constitute a conclusive determination regarding the amount of any cure and compensation due under the applicable executory contract or unexpired lease, as well as a conclusive finding that the Reorganized Debtor has demonstrated adequate assurance of future performance with respect to such executory contract or unexpired lease, to the extent required.

13.3 Insurance Policies

(a) Insurance Policies Remain In Force

Up to and including their policy expiration date(s), any and all fully paid-up Insurance Policies in effect as of the Effective Date shall remain in full force and effect according to their terms and the coverage obligations of the insurers and third party administrators under such Insurance Policies shall continue following the Effective Date (including any obligations to pay, defend and process insured claims); provided that the Reorganized Debtor shall not be obligated to pay any amount, including any premium, in connection with such Insurance Policies, or to maintain such Insurance Policies beyond the expiration of their pre-paid terms.

Nothing contained in this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan shall affect or impair the rights of any non-Debtor insured persons covered under any Insurance Policy, which expressly includes any director and officer, employment practices, or similar liability Insurance Policies (including, without limitation, policies for the benefit of the Debtors’ directors, officers, employees, members, managers, or similar persons who served in such capacity either before or after the Petition Date).

(b) No Liability of Plan Sponsor or Reorganized Debtor

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.3, the Reorganized Debtor agrees to remit any and all amounts received by it related to coverage pre-Effective Date acts, but no amounts in excess of amounts received, net of deductibles and any and all other obligations or amounts payable by the Reorganized Debtor in connection with the Insurance Policies, for the purposes contemplated by the Insurance Policies. For the avoidance of doubt,

neither the Plan Sponsor nor Reorganized Debtor shall have any obligations or personal or direct liability whatsoever in connection with any Insurance Policy (including, without limitation, policies for the benefit of the Debtors’ directors, officers, employees, members, managers, or similar persons who served in such capacity either before or after the Petition Date), including without limitation any employment, retirement, indemnification, and other agreements or arrangements, following the Effective Date, and the sole recourse of any and all Persons and the sole source of any recovery in connection therewith (if any) shall be against the Insurance Policy.

SECTION 14
MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Reorganized Debtor will continue to exist after the Effective Date as a corporate entity, with all of the powers of a corporation under applicable law in the jurisdiction in which the Debtor is incorporated and pursuant to its Corporate Documents in effect before the Effective Date, as such documents are amended by or pursuant to the Plan.

The Plan Sponsor may nominate and elect new members for the board of directors of the Reorganized Debtor in accordance with the Reorganized Debtor’s Corporate Documents.

14.3 Appointment and Authority of Plan Administrator

The authority and role of the Plan Administrator shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Plan Administrator Agreement and the Plan. In furtherance of and consistent with the purpose of the Plan Administrator Agreement and the Plan, solely for the purpose of carrying out

the Plan and discharging the duties in the Plan Administrator Agreement, the Plan Administrator shall be, pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable State corporate law, appointed as the representative of the Estate to carry out its duties and obligations under the Plan Administrator Agreement and this Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan.

The Debtor and Plan Sponsor may reschedule the Closing by making an announcement at the originally scheduled Closing of the new date for the Closing.

For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding Section 14.3 of the Plan, the Reorganized Debtor shall retain and shall have the exclusive right to enforce any and all of the Debtor’s Causes of Action including, without limitation, those arising from or related to (a) Intellectual Property and (b) claims and causes of action under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, claims for accounts

receivable and claims for turnover of Cash of the Debtor being held in escrow or on deposit by third parties), and shall be the sole beneficiary of any contested matters, claims objections, proceedings or similar actions in connection therewith. To the extent any Litigation is already pending on the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor may continue the prosecution of any such Litigation and shall be substituted as plaintiff, defendant, or in any other capacity for the Debtor pursuant to the Plan and the Confirmation Order on the Effective Date, without need for any further motion practice or notice in any case, action, or matter. Any abatement, interruption, or tolling of the statutes of limitation pertaining to the Remaining Assets in favor of the Debtor or the Estate shall also apply to the benefit of the Reorganized Debtor.

14.7 Termination of the Claims Agent

At any time following the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator shall be authorized to terminate the services of the Claims Agent by providing fourteen (14) days written notice without the need for further approval by of the Bankruptcy Court or any other party; provided, however, such notice may be waived by mutual agreement of the Plan Administrator and Claims Agent. Following termination, the Claims Agent shall provide the Plan Administrator and the Bankruptcy Court with a copy of the claims register and a copy of all filed proofs of Claim. No later than thirty (30) days after its termination, the Claims Agent shall provide the Plan Administrator with a final invoice, and unless the Plan Administrator has any issues with respect to the Claims Agent’s fees or expenses, the Plan Administrator will be authorized to remit payment of the final invoice within fourteen (14) days of receipt. The Bankruptcy Court will retain jurisdiction to hear any dispute in the event that the Plan Administrator and Claims Agent cannot agree upon the amount of fees and expenses sought by the Claims Agent.

14.8 Final Decree

At any time following the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator shall be authorized to file a motion for entry of a final decree closing the Chapter 11 Case of Marin Software Incorporated.

14.9 Winddown of Non-Debtor Subsidiaries

On or after the Effective Date, the Plan Administrator shall take such actions as are necessary or appropriate to winddown the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries as expeditiously and efficiently as reasonably practicable, including the establishment of any winddown accounts or the retention of appropriate professionals. The fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and advisors’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Plan Administrator for the winding-down of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries shall be paid first by the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries, then the Plan Administrator, in the ordinary course of business and shall not be subject to Bankruptcy Court approval; provided, however, any disputes related to such fees and expenses should be brought before the Bankruptcy Court. After the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries are wound-down, any remaining Cash or Assets of the Non-Debtor Subsidiaries shall be transferred to the Plan Administrator.

SECTION 15
Effect of Confirmation

15.1 Binding Effect of the Plan

The provisions of the confirmed Plan shall bind the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Plan Administrator, any Entity acquiring property under the Plan, and any Creditor or Interest Holder, whether or not such Creditor or Interest Holder has filed a Proof of Claim or Interest in the Chapter 11 Case, whether or not the Claim of such Creditor or the Interest of such Interest Holder is impaired under the Plan, and whether or not such Creditor or Interest Holder has accepted or rejected the Plan. All Claims and Debts shall be fixed and adjusted pursuant to the Plan. The Plan shall also bind any taxing authority, recorder of deeds, or similar official for any county, state, or Governmental Unit or parish in which any instrument related to under the Plan or related to any transaction contemplated under the Plan is to be recorded with respect to any taxes of the kind specified in Bankruptcy Code section 1146(a).

15.2 Property Free and Clear

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, all Estate Property shall vest in the Reorganized Debtor, and the Excluded Assets, Available Cash, and Plan Consideration shall vest in the Plan Administrator consistent with the terms of the Plan, free and clear of all Claims, Interests, Liens, charges, or other encumbrances of Creditors or Interest Holders. Following the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor and the Plan Administrator may transfer and dispose of any such property free of any restrictions imposed by the Bankruptcy Code or the Bankruptcy Rules and without further approval of the Bankruptcy Court or notice to Creditors, except as may otherwise be required under the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

SECTION 16
EXCULPATIONS, Injunctions, AND RELEASES

16.1 Discharge

To the fullest extent provided under section 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise expressly provided by the Plan or the Confirmation Order, all Distributions under the Plan will be in exchange for, and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge, and release of, all Claims and causes of action, whether known or unknown, including any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Petition Date, against, liabilities of, Liens on, obligations of, rights against, and Interests in, the Debtor or any of its assets or properties, and regardless of whether any property will have been distributed or retained pursuant to the Plan on account of such Claims or Interests. Except as otherwise expressly provided by the Plan or the Confirmation Order, upon the Effective Date, the Debtor and its estate will be deemed discharged and released under and to the fullest extent provided under section 1141(d)(1)(A) and other applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code from any and all Claims and Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, demands and liabilities that arose before the Confirmation Date, and all debts of the kind specified in section 502(g), 502(h), or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of the discharge of all Claims against, and Interests in, the Debtor, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all Persons shall be precluded and forever barred from asserting against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or their successors or assigns, or their assets, properties, or interests in property, any other or further Claims or Interests, or any other right to legal or equitable relief, regardless of whether such right can be reduced to a right to payment, based upon any act or omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date, whether or not the facts of or legal bases therefor were known or existed prior to the Effective Date.

16.2 Exculpation

The Exculpated Parties will neither have nor incur any liability to any entity for any action in good faith taken or omitted to be taken between the Petition Date and Effective Date in connection with or related to the Chapter 11 Case, the formulation, preparation, dissemination, implementation, Confirmation, or Consummation of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, or any agreement created or entered into in connection therewith; provided, however, that this limitation will not affect or modify the obligations created under the Plan, or the rights of any Holder of an Allowed Claim to enforce its rights under the Plan, and shall not release any action (or inaction) constituting willful misconduct, fraud, or gross negligence (in each case subject to determination of such by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction); provided, however, that any Exculpated Party shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to its duties and responsibilities (if any) under the Plan, and such reliance shall form a defense to any such claim, Cause of Action, or liability. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Exculpated Party shall be entitled to and granted the protections of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy Code.

16.3 Estate Release of Released Parties

Pursuant to section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, for good and valuable consideration, on and after and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, and the Estate (collectively, the “Estate Releasors”) shall release (the “Estate Release”) each Released Party, and each Released Party is deemed released by the Estate Releasors 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 any of the Estate Releasors, as applicable, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, asserted or unasserted, accrued or unaccrued, matured or unmatured, determined or determinable, disputed or undisputed, liquidated or unliquidated, or due or to become due, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, that the Estate Releasors would have been legally entitled to assert in its own right, or on behalf of the Holder of any Claim or Interest or other entity, based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part, the Debtor, the Chapter 11 Case, the purchase, sale, transfer of any security, asset, right, or interest of the Debtor, the subject matter of, or the transactions or events giving rise to, any Claim or Interest that is treated in the Plan, the business or contractual arrangements between the Debtor and any Released Party, the restructuring of Claims and Interests prior to or in the Chapter 11 Case, the negotiation, formulation, or preparation of the Plan or related agreements, instruments, or other documents, any other act or omission, transaction, agreement, event, or other occurrence taking place relating to the Debtor on and before the

Effective Date, other than claims or liabilities arising out of or relating to any act or omission of a Released Party that constitutes fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence; provided, however, the foregoing Estate Release shall not operate to waive or release any obligations of any party under the Plan or any other document, instrument, or agreement executed to implement the Plan.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Estate Release, which includes by reference each of the related provisions and definitions contained herein, and further, shall constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s finding that the Estate Release is: (a) in exchange for the good and valuable consideration provided by the Released Parties; (b) in the best interests of the Debtor and all Holders of Claims and Interests; (c) fair, equitable, and reasonable; (d) given and made after due notice and opportunity for hearing; and (e) a bar to any of the Estate Releasors asserting any Claim or Cause of Action released pursuant to the Estate Release.

16.4 Injunction

In implementation of the Plan, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Confirmation Order or the Plan, and except in connection with the enforcement of the terms of the Plan or any documents provided for or contemplated in the Plan, all entities who have held, hold, or may hold Claims against or Interests in the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or the Estate that arose prior to the Effective Date are permanently enjoined from: (a) commencing or continuing in any manner, directly or indirectly, any action or other proceeding of any kind against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Estate, or the Plan Administrator with respect to any such Claim or Interest; (b) the enforcement, attachment, collection, or recovery by any manner or means, directly or indirectly, of any judgment, award, decree, or order against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Estate, any of the Estate Property, or the Plan Administrator with respect to any such Claim or Interest; (c) creating, perfecting, or enforcing, directly or indirectly, any Lien or encumbrance of any kind against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Estate, any of the Estate Property, or the Plan Administrator with respect to any such Claim or Interest; and (d) any act, in any manner, in any place whatsoever, that does not conform to or comply with the provisions of the Plan with respect to such Claim or Interest. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all Persons shall be precluded and forever barred from asserting against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Plan Administrator, and their successors or assigns, or their assets, properties, or interests in property, any other or further Claims or Interests, or any other right to legal or equitable relief, regardless of whether such right can be reduced to a right to payment, based upon any act or omission, transaction, or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date, whether or not the facts of or legal bases therefor were known or existed prior to the Effective Date. Nothing contained in this Section 16.4 shall prohibit the Holder of a timely filed Proof of Claim or an Interest from litigating its right to seek to have such Claim or Interest declared an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, as applicable, and paid in accordance with the distribution provisions of the Plan, or enjoin or prohibit the interpretation or enforcement by the Claimant of any of the obligations of the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or the Plan Administrator under the Plan.

16.5 Post-Confirmation Liability of Plan Administrator

The Plan Administrator, together with its consultants, agents, advisors, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, other representatives and the professionals engaged by the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) shall not be liable for any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, Causes of Action, costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees arising out of or due to their actions or omissions, or consequences of such actions or omissions, to the Holders of Claims or Interests for any action or inaction taken in good faith in connection with the performance or discharge of their duties under the Plan, except the Indemnified Parties will be liable for actions or inactions that are grossly negligent, fraudulent, or which constitute willful misconduct (in each case, liability shall be subject to determination by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction). However, any act or omission taken with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, and not inconsistent therewith, will be conclusively deemed not to constitute gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct. In addition, the Reorganized Debtor and the Estate shall, as applicable and to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against and with respect to any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees arising out of or due to their actions or omissions, or consequences of such actions or omissions, with respect to the Reorganized Debtor and the Estate or the implementation or administration of the Plan if the Indemnified Party acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Reorganized Debtor and the Estate; provided that, notwithstanding any action, inaction, error or mistake (including, without limitation, any errors or mistakes related to Distributions) by the Plan Administrator, under no circumstances shall the Plan Sponsor, DIP Lender or Reorganized Debtor be liable for funding any additional amounts, including in connection with the Plan or the DIP Facility; provided further that subject to their compliance with the Plan and Confirmation Order, the Plan Sponsor, DIP Lender and Reorganized Debtor shall be entitled to all of their rights and benefits thereunder. All rights of the Persons exculpated and indemnified pursuant hereto shall survive confirmation of the Plan.

16.6 Preservation of Causes of Action

(a) Vesting of Causes of Action

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or Confirmation Order, in accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all Causes of Action that the Debtor holds or may hold against any Entity, shall vest upon the Effective Date in the Reorganized Debtor, subject to the Plan Administrator’s right to assert any claims, counterclaims, rights of setoff, and defenses in connection with the prosecution of any objection to a Disputed Claim.

Except as otherwise provided in the Confirmation Order, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall have the exclusive right to institute, prosecute, abandon, settle, or compromise any Causes of Action against any Entity, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, in any court or other tribunal, including, without limitation, in an adversary proceeding filed in the Chapter 11 Case.

(b) Preservation of All Causes of Action
Not Expressly Settled or Released

Unless a Cause of Action against a holder of a Claim or other Entity is expressly waived, relinquished, released, compromised, or settled in the Plan (including, without limitation, pursuant to the Estate Release) and/or or any Final Order (including the Confirmation Order), the Debtor and the Reorganized Debtor expressly reserve such retained Cause of Action for later adjudication by the Reorganized Debtor (including, without limitation, Causes of Action not specifically identified or described in the Plan Supplement or elsewhere, or of which the Debtor may be presently unaware, or which may arise or exist by reason of additional facts or circumstances unknown to the Debtor at this time, or facts or circumstances that may change or be different from those the Debtor now believes to exist) and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including, without limitation, the doctrines of res judicata, Collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, waiver, estoppel (judicial, equitable, or otherwise) or laches shall apply to such Causes of Action upon or after the entry of the Confirmation Order or Effective Date based on the Disclosure Statement, Plan, or Confirmation Order, except where such Causes of Action have been released or otherwise resolved by a Final Order (including the Confirmation Order). In addition, the Debtor and the Reorganized Debtor expressly reserve the right to pursue or adopt claims alleged in any lawsuit in which the Debtor is a defendant or interested party against any Entity, including, without limitation, the plaintiffs or co-defendants in such lawsuits.

Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, any Entity to which the Debtor has incurred an obligation (whether on account of services, the purchase or sale of goods, or otherwise), or that has received services from the Debtor or a transfer of money or property of the Debtor, or that has received services from the Debtor or a transfer or money or property of the Debtor, or that has transacted business with the Debtor, or that has leased property from the Debtor, should assume and is hereby advised that any such obligation, transfer, or transaction may be reviewed by the Reorganized Debtor or Plan Administrator subsequent to the Effective Date and may be the subject of an action after the Effective Date, regardless of whether (i) such Entity has filed a proof of claim against the Debtor in the Chapter 11 Case; (ii) the Debtor has objected to any such Entity’s proof of claim; (iii) any such Entity’s Claim was included in the Schedules; (iv) the Debtor has objected to any such Entity’s scheduled Claim; (v) any such Entity’s scheduled Claim has been identified by the Debtor as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated; or (vi) the Debtor has identified any potential claim or Cause of Action against such Entity herein.

On and after the Effective Date, quarterly fees owed to the U.S. Trustee shall be paid by the Plan Administrator on behalf of the Debtor when due in accordance with applicable law and, from and after the Effective Date, shall be based on Distributions made by the Plan Administrator and the Reorganized Debtor.

The Debtor, subject to the consent of the Plan Sponsor, reserves the right to revoke and withdraw the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan at any time on or before the Confirmation Date. If the Debtor revokes or withdraws the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, or if Confirmation or the Effective Date does not occur, then the Plan shall be deemed null and void and, in such event, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or release of any Claims by or against the Debtor or any other entity or to prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtor or any Entity in any further proceedings involving the Debtor.

19.3 Severability of Plan Provisions

In the event that, prior to the Confirmation Date, any term or provision of the Plan is held by the Bankruptcy Court to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the Bankruptcy Court shall, with the consent of each of the Debtor and the Prepetition Agent, 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 hereof 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 hereof, as it may have been altered or interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, is valid and enforceable pursuant to its terms.

19.6 Reservation of Rights

Neither the filing of the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan nor any statement or provision contained in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan, nor the taking by any party in interest of any action with respect to the Plan, shall: (a) be or be deemed to be an admission against interest and (b) until the Effective Date, be or be deemed to be a waiver of any rights any party in interest may have (i) against any other party in interest, or (ii) in or to any of the assets of any other party in interest, and, until the Effective Date, all such rights are specifically reserved. In the event that the Plan is not confirmed or fails to become effective, neither the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan nor any statement contained in the Combined Disclosure Statement and Plan may be used or relied upon in any manner in any suit, action, proceeding, or controversy within or without the Chapter 11 Case involving the Debtor, except with respect to Confirmation of the Plan.

19.7 Defects, Omissions and Amendments

The Debtor may, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and without notice to all Holders of Claims or Interests, insofar as it does not materially and adversely affect Holders of Claims, correct any defect, omission, or inconsistency in the Plan in such manner and to such extent as may be necessary or desirable to expedite the execution of the Plan. The Plan may be altered or amended before or after Confirmation as provided in section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code if, in the opinion of the Bankruptcy Court, the modification does not materially and adversely affect the interests of Holders of Claims, so long as the Plan, as modified, complies with sections 1122 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Debtor has complied with section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan may be altered or amended before or after the Confirmation Date but, prior to substantial Consummation, in a manner which, in the opinion of the Bankruptcy Court, materially and adversely affects Holders of Claims, so long as the Plan, as modified, complies with sections 1122 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtor has complied with section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code and, after notice and a hearing, the Bankruptcy Court confirms such Plan, as modified, under section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

19.8 Filing of Additional Documents

The Debtor shall file with the Bankruptcy Court such agreements, instruments, pleadings, orders, papers, or other documents as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and further evidence the terms and conditions of the Plan.

19.9 Successors and Assigns

The rights, benefits, and obligations of any Entity named or referred to in the Plan shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and/or assigns of such Entity.

19.10 Setoffs and Recoupments

The Reorganized Debtor may, but shall not be required to, set off against or recoup from the payments to be made pursuant to the Plan in respect of a Claim, any claim of any nature whatsoever that the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or the Estate, as applicable, 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 of any such claim by the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, or the Estate, against such Holder.

19.11 Tax Exemption

Pursuant to section 1146 of the Bankruptcy Code, the issuance, transfer, or exchange of any security under the Plan, or the execution, delivery, or recording of an instrument of transfer pursuant to, in implementation of, or as contemplated by the Plan, including, without limitation, any transfers to or by the Debtor, if on the Effective Date, and the Reorganized Debtor or Plan Administrator, if after the Effective Date, of the Debtor’s property in implementation of or as contemplated by the Plan (including, without limitation, any subsequent transfer of property by the Reorganized Debtor) shall not be taxed under any state or local law imposing a stamp tax, transfer tax, or similar tax or fee. Consistent with the foregoing, each recorder of deeds or similar official for any county, city or Governmental Unit in which any instrument hereunder is to be recorded shall, pursuant to the Confirmation Order, be ordered and directed to accept such instrument, without requiring the payment of any documentary stamp tax, deed stamps, stamp tax, transfer tax, intangible tax, or similar tax.

19.12 Implementation

Upon Confirmation, the Debtor shall be authorized to take all steps and execute all documents necessary to effectuate the provisions contained in the Plan.

19.13 Record Date

To the extent a “Record Date” is required for implementation of the Plan, the record date shall be the Effective Date or such other date as the Bankruptcy Court may set.

19.14 Certain Actions

By reason of entry of the Confirmation Order, prior to, on, or after the Effective Date (as appropriate), all matters provided for under the Plan that would otherwise require approval of directors, members, managers or other Interest Holders of the Debtor under the Plan, including, without limitation, (i) the Distribution of Cash pursuant to the Plan, (ii) the adoption, execution, delivery, and implementation of all contracts, leases, instruments, releases, and other agreements or documents related to the Plan, and (iii) the adoption, execution, and implementation of other
