In accordance with section 1123(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, Administrative Claims and Priority Tax Claims are not classified and are not entitled to vote on the Plan.

A.	ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIMS OTHER THAN FEE CLAIMS

The rights of each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim are Unimpaired by the Plan. Each Holder of an Allowed Administrative Claim shall receive Cash equal to the unpaid portion of its Allowed Administrative Claim on the date on which its Allowed Administrative Claim becomes payable under applicable law or any agreement relating thereto. Persons asserting the right to payment of an unpaid Administrative Claim arising prior to Confirmation must file and serve on the Debtors and such other Persons who are designated by the Bankruptcy Rules, the Confirmation Order, or other Order of the Court an application for final allowance of such Administrative Claim no later than 45 days after the Effective Date.

The rights of each Priority Tax Creditor are Unimpaired by the Plan.

(ii)	The Debtors and the Michigan Department of Treasury and the IRS, pursuant to a prior stipulation [Docket No. 246], have agreed to certain language to be included in the Confirmation Order, as follows:

(a)	Provision relating to interest rate on taxes:

Debtors have filed an appeal of their Michigan Business Tax assessment to the Michigan Tax Tribunal. In the event it is finally determined that Debtors owe administrative and/or priority tax debt to the State of Michigan, Debtors shall pay interest as determined under applicable non-bankruptcy law, as required by 11 U.S.C. § 511. The interest rate for the State of Michigan shall be the rate in effect as of the date of Confirmation, and shall accrue commencing on the Effective Date of the Plan. After the Debtors' liability for Michigan Business Tax, if any, is finally resolved, including all appeals and/or under 11 U.S.C. § 505 , the Debtors shall pay such taxes according to 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9) or whatever payment plans may be agreed to between Debtors and Michigan.

The Joint Committee on Taxation of the U.S. Congress has approved the compromise between Debtors and the IRS relating to Source Years 2008, 2009 and Refund Years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007. The Debtors shall pay the liabilities pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 1129(a)(9) and interest under 11 U.S.C. § 511, unless otherwise agreed between the IRS and the Debtors.

(b)	Provision for Curing or Waiving Defaults:

Upon the failure of the Debtors to make any payments due on a priority or secured tax claim that is not cured within 30 days of a written notice of default by the tax creditor, such tax creditor may exercise all rights and

remedies available under non-bankruptcy law for the collection of its entire claim, or seek appropriate relief in this Court.

(c)	Provision Limiting the Scope of Exculpation:

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Confirmation Order, the Disclosure Statement, the Plan or any Plan document, nothing shall (1) affect the ability of the State of Michigan or the IRS to pursue, to the extent allowed by non-bankruptcy law, any non-debtors for any liabilities that may be related to any tax liabilities owed by the Debtors, or (2) affect the rights of the State of Michigan or the IRS to assert setoff and recoupment, and such rights are expressly preserved. Moreover, the Debtors agree that they will timely file or cause to be filed all required state tax returns and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of the State of Michigan Tax Code and the Internal Revenue Code.

MEANS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PLAN

A.	OVERVIEW OF PLAN

As hereinafter provided, from and after the Confirmation Date, the Debtors shall commence a competitive Sale Process to sell and convey each of their remaining non-debtor subsidiary banks, individually or in groups, subject to Applicable Banking Laws and any requisite approvals of the Bank Regulators, and free and clear of Liens, pursuant to sections 363(b) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code;² provided, however, that at any time the Debtors may invoke the Toggle Option, whereby the Debtors would cease the Sale Process and effect a Reorganization.

B.	SALE PROCESS

(i)	Sale Procedures

Prior to or contemporaneous with the filing of this Plan, the Debtors have filed a motion for approval of Sale Procedures in furtherance of the Sale Process ("Sale Procedures"). In connection with the Sale Procedures motion, the Debtors have prepared and filed with the Court a proposed purchase agreement to be used as a form for negotiating any stalking horse and competitive bidder purchase agreements.

(ii)

Marketing

Pursuant to the Sale Procedures, as the same may be amended from time to time, the Debtors shall have twelve (12) months from the Confirmation Date (the "Marketing Period") in which to market for sale the Debtors' remaining non-debtor subsidiary banks, individually or in groups, and for the Debtors to enter into one or more stalking horse purchase agreements for the sale of any bank or combination of banks. The Debtors shall be permitted to conduct sales and closings thereon within, and prior to the conclusion of, the Marketing Period. The deadline for obtaining any requisite approvals by the Court and the Bank Regulators and to close any and all

2 The description of the proposed Sale Process herein is for summary purposes only. Holders of Impaired Claims and Equity Security Interests are encouraged to review the Sale Procedures motion and the exhibits thereto, including the proposed Sale Procedures Order. The Debtors intend to provide to Holders in one or more Plan Supplements any material modifications to the Sale Procedures, as well as copies of any orders entered by the Court, and any materials otherwise hereafter required by the Court to be served on Holders, regarding the Sale Procedures.

of such sales will be eighteen (18) months from the Confirmation Date (the "Sale Deadline"). The Debtors shall be permitted to merge or otherwise combine banks, subject to Applicable Banking Laws and any requisite approvals by the Bank Regulators in order to enhance marketing prospects or otherwise in furtherance of the Sale Process. Upon execution of any stalking horse purchase agreement for one or more of the banks, such agreement shall be filed with the Court and a competitive bid process shall ensue, which will include the possibility of a public auction, as hereinafter summarized and as the same may be modified by subsequent order of the Court. If, at the end of the Marketing Period, the Debtors have not identified a stalking horse purchaser for any particular bank(s), the Debtors will determine whether (a) such bank(s) should be auctioned by the Debtors pursuant to the competitive bidding process described below, or (b) be subject to the Toggle Option.

(iii)

Bid Deadline; Qualified Bidder; Qualified Bid

Within 45 days, or such lesser period as the Debtors may require, but not less than 30 days, from written notice by Debtors of a stalking horse purchase agreement (the "Bid Deadline"), any competing bidders will be required to, among other things, submit their bid and a marked version of such stalking horse purchase agreement. If Qualified Bids other than the stalking horse bid are received from Qualified Bidders by the Bid Deadline, an auction shall be held at the offices of Debtors' counsel in Detroit, Michigan, at which the highest and best offer for the subject bank(s) will be accepted by the Debtors. If no Qualified Bids other than the stalking horse bid are received, the Debtors will be authorized to promptly close the sale to the stalking horse bidder.

A "Qualified Bidder" is a potential overbidder which has provided evidence satisfactory to the Debtors, in their reasonable discretion, that the overbidder is willing, authorized, capable and qualified financially, legally and otherwise, of unconditionally performing all obligations under the competing purchase agreement in the event that it submits the prevailing bid at the auction. To demonstrate that an overbidder is capable and qualified financially to perform its obligations under the purchase agreement, such overbidder shall provide, among other things, (a) bank statements, current financial statements or other reasonable evidence, or (b) if the overbidder is an entity formed for the purpose of acquiring one or more banks, current financial statements or other reasonable evidence of the financial capability of the equity holders of the overbidder, or (c) written evidence of a financing commitment, free of contingencies, sufficient to permit the consummation of the transactions in question.

A "Qualified Bid" is a written offer contained in fully-executed transaction documents, including pursuant to which a Qualified Bidder proposes to effectuate the purchase of one or more banks that:

5.01

establishes terms and conditions pertaining to the sale substantially as set forth in the stalking horse purchase agreement or such competing purchase agreement that the Debtors determine, in their sole discretion, is no less favorable than the terms and conditions of the stalking horse purchase agreement;

5.02	results in a value to the Debtors, in their sole and absolute discretion, that is more than the "Minimum Overbid" (as defined and specified in the particular sale notice);

5.03	does not request or entitle the bidder to any transaction or breakup fee, expense reimbursement, termination, or similar type of fee or payment;

5.04	is accompanied by a cash deposit in the amount of the "Overbidder's Deposit" (as defined in the Sale Procedures), which amount shall be deposited with an escrow agent acceptable to Debtors, in their sole discretion, so as to be received on or prior to the Bid Deadline;

5.05	is accompanied by a clean and duly executed competing purchase agreement and a marked version, if applicable, reflecting the variations from the stalking horse purchase agreement;

5.06	identifies with particularity each and every Executory Contract and/or Unexpired Lease proposed to be assumed, the assumption and assignment of which is a condition to closing;

5.07	contains a satisfactory representation that the bidder is financially capable of consummating the transactions contemplated by the competing purchase agreement;

5.08

contains financial and other information that the Debtors determine, in their sole discretion, is sufficient to allow them to evaluate and confirm the bidder's financial and other capabilities to consummate the transactions contemplated by the competing purchase agreement, including evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Debtors that such bidder has received, in writing, debt and/or equity funding commitments (without contingencies) or has financial resources readily available sufficient in the aggregate to finance the purchase of the bank(s), and financial and other information establishing adequate assurance of future performance under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code (which information may be served by the Debtors on Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease counterparties);

5.09	does not contain any due diligence or financing or other contingencies of any kind, with the sole exception of Court approval and approval of the Bank Regulators, if required;

5.10	fully discloses the identity of each entity that will be bidding for the bank(s) or otherwise participating in connection with such bid, and the complete terms of any such participation;

5.11	states that the offering party consents to the core jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court; and

5.12	includes evidence of authorization and approval from the bidder's board of directors (or comparable governing body) with respect to the submission, execution, delivery and closing of the competing purchase agreement.

If and to the extent required by the FDIC, proceeds of any bank sales ("Proceeds") will be escrowed, on the terms of a form of escrow agreement acceptable to the FDIC, subject to the extent of the FDIC's authority to require the same, pursuant to which the Proceeds will be (i) used to recapitalize the Debtors' remaining subsidiary banks and (ii) to otherwise remain in escrow for the benefit of the Debtors' Estates and for distribution in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

C.	TOGGLE OPTION TO REORGANIZATION

At any time prior to, or during, the Sale Process, the Debtors may convert from a liquidation to a Reorganization, provided, however, that each of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) the Debtors' then remaining subsidiary banks are "adequately capitalized" within the meaning ascribed to such requirement by the FDIC, (2) the Debtors have received a non-contingent (other than with respect to Court approval) commitment for financing sufficient to enable the Debtors: (a) to pay all Allowed Administrative and Priority Claims and (b) to recapitalize the remaining subsidiary banks such that they are projected to be "adequately capitalized" for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the Effective Date, and (3) the Debtors serve written notice on all Holders of Claims and Equity Security Interests of the conversion to a Reorganization and evidencing the satisfaction of the aforementioned conditions (the "Toggle Option"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Liquidation Trustee shall have the right to veto the implementation of any Toggle Option that the Debtors may propose by serving written notice of such veto on the Debtors within twenty (20) Business Days after the Debtors have proposed such Toggle Option to the Liquidation Trustee in writing.

In the event of a Reorganization, equity in the Reorganized Debtors (which equity shall be book entry and Depository Trust Company eligible) will be distributed: (1) first, to the new Equity Investor(s) providing the funds for the Reorganization to the extent of the value of such investment, (2) second, to Holders of Allowed Senior Note Claims to the extent of the value of their Claims, and (3) third, to the extent Holders of Allowed Senior Note Claims have been paid in full, to the Holders of Allowed Trust Preferred Securities Claims to the extent of the value of their Claims. In the event of a Reorganization, in lieu of distributing equity to Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, the Debtors, at their option, may distribute cash to such Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims equivalent in value to what they would receive in a distribution of equity. In the event that existing Holders of Equity Security Interests in the Debtors are to retain all or a portion of such Equity Security Interests as part of a Reorganization, it shall be a requirement thereof that the "new value exception" to section 1129(b)(2)(B)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code must be satisfied.

In the event that the Toggle Option is implemented with the consent of the Liquidation Trustee and the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee (as defined in the Liquidating Trust) unanimously approves, Article XII.E below shall be stricken in its entirety and Article XII.E as set forth in the Amended Joint Liquidating Plan of Capitol Bancorp Ltd. and Financial

Commerce Corporation, which was filed with the Court in the Chapter 11 Cases on July 17, 2013 [Docket No. 523], shall apply and be incorporated as though originally set forth herein.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtors shall have no duty to pursue the Toggle Option or the implementation thereof.

D.	ALTERNATIVE RESOLUTION

In the event the Sale Process does not result in the sale of all of the remaining subsidiary banks and the Toggle Option is not invoked by the Debtors such that a Reorganization occurs, the Debtors may elect to continue to auction the remaining subsidiary banks pursuant to the competitive bidding process described herein.

Upon the earlier of: (a) completion of the Sale Process, with all subsidiary banks having been sold and the closings thereon having been concluded, such that the Debtors are no longer bank holding companies (as defined under the BHCA) or (b) the occurrence of the Sale Deadline, the Debtors will establish a liquidating trust in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the "Liquidating Trust") to complete the liquidation of any remaining assets of the Debtors, to pursue any claims that the Debtors' Estates may have, to handle objections to Claims and to collect and distribute all proceeds of such remaining liquidation, including any remaining Proceeds from the Sale Process, in accordance with the distribution provisions of this Plan. As provided therein, the Liquidating Trust will be entitled to pursue all Causes of Action under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Liquidating Trust will be entitled to pursue a post-liquidation holding company transaction to the extent that one can be formulated. The Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee shall consist of three (3) members, two (2) of whom shall be selected by the Committee and one (1) of whom shall be selected by the Board of Directors of CBC. The proposed members of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee shall meet (in person or by telephone) on or before the date of the hearing on confirmation of the Plan to choose, by majority vote, the Liquidation Trustee. The entity or person chosen to be the Liquidation Trustee at such meeting shall enter into the Liquidating Trust with the Debtors as of the Effective Date.

The Liquidating Trust shall become effective on the Effective Date. On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall contribute the following assets to the Liquidating Trust: (i) the Debtors' or Estates' share of the proceeds of the sale of certain of the Debtors' subsidiary banks to Talmer Bancorp, Inc. ("Talmer"), which sale was approved by the Bankruptcy Court by order entered at Docket No. 692, (ii) all causes of action belonging to the Debtors, including causes of action against directors, officers and Insiders (as defined herein) of the Debtors, (iii) that certain loan owned by either or both of the Debtors secured by real property in Lansing, Michigan and in the approximate amount of $446,008.04, which amount includes principal and accrued but unpaid interest, (iv) upon request of the Liquidation Trustee, copies of, or access by the Liquidation Trustee and his agents to, the Debtors' books, records, and files, and (v) all other assets of the Debtors, except (a) the Debtors' cash on hand in excess of the proceeds of the sale to Talmer (but only up to a maximum of $1,500,000, subject to the provisions of the next sentence), (b) furniture, fixtures and equipment, (c) the Debtors' indirect ownership interest in Summit Bank of Kansas City ("Summit Bank"), and (d) other assets of the Debtors reasonably required by the Debtors to operate during the period of the Wind Down Budget (e.g., software and other intellectual property, and the Debtors' books, records and files). Once the sum of the Debtors' cash on hand

as of January 21, 2014 plus cumulative cash receipts during the period of the Wind Down Budget (not including Debtors' or Estates' share of the proceeds of the sale to Talmer, the proceeds of the sale of Summit Bank, the $160,000 funded by the Debtors pursuant to Article XIII.N hereof and any amounts received by the Debtors as pay agent or payor for any present or former non-debtor subsidiary banks) exceeds $1,500,000 (the "$1.5 Million Threshold"), the Debtors shall pay any amounts in excess of the $1.5 Million Threshold to the Liquidating Trust no later than the 15^th day of each month following the month in which such proceeds are received, provided that the failure to do so will not impair any release or exculpation provision of the Plan or the Settlement Agreement dated as of December 31, 2013 by and among Capitol Bancorp Ltd. and Financial Commerce Corporation and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Capitol Bancorp Ltd., et al., provided, further, that in the event that the Debtors fail to timely turnover any amounts in excess of the $1.5 Million Threshold, the Liquidating Trustee may file an action for turnover of such funds and the Debtors will not oppose expedited consideration of such action. The proceeds of the sale of Summit Bank shall be contributed to the Liquidating Trust within five (5) business days after the Debtors' receipt of such proceeds. The Debtors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to liquidate their indirect ownership interest in Summit Bank and shall file a motion pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code for authorization to sell such interest in Summit Bank (and shall provide notice of such motion to the Liquidation Trustee and other parties that have requested notice in the Chapter 11 Cases). Except as set forth herein, assets (or proceeds thereof) not contributed to the Liquidating Trust on the Effective Date shall be contributed to the Liquidating Trust as soon as reasonably practicable after they are no longer necessary for the Wind Down or are liquidated by the Debtors. Except as provided in this paragraph, the Debtors shall not be required to contribute any cash or assets to the Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Liquidating Trust or the Plan, no cash or other assets (or proceeds of such other assets, including proceeds of causes of action) contributed to the Liquidating Trust at any time shall thereafter be available for or used to pay Administrative Claims, Fee Claims, Priority Tax Claims, post-Confirmation expenses of the Debtors, or claims of the Debtors' or Committee's Case Professionals for fees and expenses.

S.	SECTION 1145 EXEMPTION

Pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, the offering, issuance, and distribution of any Securities contemplated by the Plan and all agreements incorporated herein, including the New Capitol Bancorp Stock, shall be exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable law requiring registration prior to the offering, issuance, distribution, or sale of securities. In addition, under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, any securities contemplated by the Plan and any and all agreements incorporated herein, including the New Capitol Bancorp Stock, will be freely tradable by the recipients thereof, subject to (1) the provisions of section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the definition of an underwriter in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act; (2) compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such Securities or instruments; and (3) compliance with the Applicable Banking Laws, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such Securities or instruments, including without limitation, making appropriate filings with and obtaining necessary approvals from the Bank Regulators. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if section 1145 does not apply in the case of the offering of Securities pursuant to a prepackaged solicitation, the Debtors will rely on section 4(2) of the Securities Act which provides that the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act shall not apply to the offer and sale of a security in connection with transactions not involving any public offering. By virtue of section 18 of the Securities Act, section 4(2) also provides that any state Blue Sky Law requirements shall not apply to such offer or sale.

If section 4(2) of the Securities Act, rather than section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, is applicable, then the shares of New Capitol Bancorp Stock issued under the Plan would be subject to the aforesaid restrictions on resale and would not be freely transferable in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person, as defined in Regulation S, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Holders of Trust Preferred Securities Claims pursuant and subject to the terms of the Trust Agreements, each as applicable, as in effect on the Effective Date; and (c) permitting each of the Indenture Trustees to maintain or assert any right or Charging Lien it may have against distributions pursuant to the terms of the Plan to recover the Indenture Trustee Claims.

On the Effective Date, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, any indenture agreement or other instrument relating to any of the foregoing (including without limitation, the Indentures, the Debentures, the Guarantee Agreements, and the Declarations), shall be deemed to be canceled, as permitted by section 1123(a)(5)(F) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the obligations of the Debtors thereunder shall be fully released and discharged.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall in any way limit or affect the standing of any of the Indenture Trustees to appear and be heard in the Bankruptcy Cases on and after the Effective Date; provided that such right to appear and be heard does not create or impose a duty or responsibility on such Indenture Trustees.

U.	CANCELLATION OF EXISTING RIGHTS TO ACQUIRE EQUITY SECURITIES

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date, all of the agreements and other documents evidencing a right prepetition to acquire any Equity Security of either Debtor shall be deemed automatically cancelled without further act or action under any applicable agreement, law, regulation, order or rule and the obligations of the applicable Debtor thereunder shall be discharged including, but not limited to, the obligations of either Debtor pursuant to (i) that certain Share Purchase Rights Plan adopted by Capitol on July 20, 2009 and the related Rights Agreement between the Company and BNY Mellon Shareholders Services LLC as Rights Agent dated as of July 21, 2009, and (ii) that certain Tax Benefit Preservation Plan dated as of July 21, 2011 by and between Capitol and Mellon Investors Services LLC. To the extent any of these agreements are Executory Contracts, they will be deemed rejected upon Confirmation.

V.	OTHER ACCOUNTS

The Debtors may retain whatever bank accounts the Debtors have presently and may establish one or more additional checking and/or interest-bearing accounts as they determine necessary and appropriate to effectuate the terms and provisions of this Plan.

W.	CLOSING OF THE CHAPTER 11 CASES

When all Disputed Claims and Equity Security Interests have become Allowed Claims or Equity Security Interests, either by settlement or litigation, or have been disallowed by Final Order, and when all professional fee applications have been resolved, the Debtors may seek authority from the Court to close the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules.

(iii)

Undeliverable and Unclaimed Distributions

ARTICLE VII.

PROCEDURES FOR TREATING DISPUTED CLAIMS AND EQUITY SECURITY INTERESTS

B.	DISPUTED CLAIMS AND EQUITY SECURITY INTERESTS PROCESS

The Debtors, the Liquidation Trustee and/or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and all Creditors and parties-in-interest shall have the right to make and file objections to any Claim or Equity Security Interest until the Objection Deadline.

All objections shall be litigated to Final Order; provided, however, that the Debtors, the Liquidation Trustee and/or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have the authority to compromise, settle, otherwise resolve or withdraw any objections without Court approval.

The Debtors, the Liquidation Trustee, and/or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may, at any time, request that the Court estimate any contingent or unliquidated Claim pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether they have previously objected to such Claim or whether the Court has ruled on any objection, and the Court will retain jurisdiction to estimate any Claim at any time during litigation concerning any objection to any Claim, including during the pendency of any appeal related to any such objection. In the event the Court estimates any contingent or unliquidated Claim, that estimated amount will constitute either the Allowed amount of such Claim or a maximum limitation on such Claim, as determined by the Court. If the estimated amount constitutes a maximum limitation on such Claim, the

Debtors, the Liquidation Trustee and/or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate payment on such Claim. Each of the aforementioned objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are cumulative and are not exclusive of one another.

Except as otherwise provided by the Plan or this Liquidation Trust Agreement title to the Assets delivered to the Liquidating Trust shall pass to the Liquidating Trust free and clear of all Claims and Interests in accordance with Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, except as otherwise provided in the Plan. The Liquidating Trust is the successor to the Debtors' rights to books and records.

2.08	Nature and Purpose of the Liquidating Trust.

(a) Purpose. The Liquidating Trust is a liquidating trust pursuant to which, in accordance with the Plan, the Liquidation Trustee is to liquidate the Assets and object to Claims in accordance with the Plan and distribute proceeds of the Assets in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(d). Accordingly, the primary purpose of the Liquidating Trust is to liquidate the Assets and distribute Cash or property transferred to it consistent with the objective of maximizing value without any objective to continue or engage in the conduct of a trade or business.

(b) Manner of Acting. The Liquidation Trustee shall oversee the administration and liquidation of the Assets in a cost-effective manner in a reasonable time subject to the limitations contained in this Liquidation Trust Agreement and the Plan. The Liquidation Trustee shall make continuing efforts to make timely distributions and not unduly prolong the duration of the Liquidating Trust. The liquidation of the Assets may be accomplished through the sale of Assets, the prosecution, compromise and settlement, abandonment or dismissal of any or all Claims, rights or Causes of Action, or otherwise subject to the terms of the Plan and this Liquidation Trust Agreement and distributions to Beneficiaries under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Liquidating Trust shall not be permitted to retain cash or cash equivalents (including listed stocks or other securities) in excess of a reasonable amount to: (i) meet all distributions, Claims and contingent liabilities, (ii) pay expenses as provided in Article V of this Liquidation Trust Agreement and in the Plan, and (iii) preserve or enhance the liquidation value of the Assets during the term of the Liquidating Trust.

(c) Relationship. This Liquidation Trust Agreement is intended to create a trust and a trust relationship and to be governed and construed in all respects as a trust. The Liquidating Trust is not intended to be, and shall not be deemed to be or treated as, a general partnership, limited partnership, joint venture, corporation, joint stock company or association, nor shall the Liquidation Trustee or Beneficiaries, or any of them, for any purpose be, or be deemed to be or treated in any way whatsoever to be, liable or responsible hereunder as partners or joint venturers. The relationship of the Beneficiaries to the Liquidation Trustee shall be solely that of beneficiaries of a trust and shall not be deemed a principal or agency relationship, and their rights shall be limited to those conferred upon them by this Liquidation Trust Agreement or the Plan.

2.09	Status of Liquidation Trustee.

(a) With respect to all Assets, the Liquidation Trustee shall directly and indirectly be the representative of the Estates as that term is used in Section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall have the rights, duties and powers granted in this Liquidation Trust Agreement and granted to the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee in the Plan. The Liquidation Trustee shall be a party-in-interest as to all matters over which the Court has jurisdiction or retains jurisdiction under the Plan.

(b) The Liquidation Trustee shall not and is not authorized to engage in any trade or business with respect to the Assets or any proceeds therefrom, except to the extent reasonably necessary to, and consistent with, the liquidating purpose of the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidation Trustee shall assume all of the fiduciary responsibilities, duties and obligations previously undertaken by the Debtors, the Debtors' board of directors, managers, general partners and officers that arise after the date hereof and those of a chapter 7 trustee for all creditors of both Debtors. The Liquidation Trustee will owe the fiduciary duties of the Debtors and those of a chapter 7 trustee to all the Beneficiaries. The Liquidation Trustee is empowered and authorized to satisfy such responsibilities, duties and obligations without the necessity of corporate authority from the Debtors.

(c) The Liquidation Trustee shall not pay any professional fees and expenses from the Liquidation Trust Administrative Reserve except in accordance with this Liquidation Trust Agreement or the Plan.

(b) No Distributions to Disputed Claims.

(i) No payments or distributions shall be made with respect to all or any portion of a Claim until the same has become an Allowed Claim either as a result of (i) having been scheduled by the Debtors in an amount that is nondisputed, noncontingent and liquidated and to which no objection is filed by the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee, subject to the restriction of section 502(d) (ii) having filed a proof of claim to which no objection is filed by the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee, subject to the restrictions of 502(d), or (iii) having been subject to an objection filed by the Debtors or the Liquidation Trustee and determined by entry of a Final Order, at which time prompt payment of the Allowed Claim will be made with no interest thereon.

If a Disputed Claim becomes a Disallowed Claim, the payments withheld, and interest earned thereon, pursuant to this paragraph will be

returned to the Trust Fund Account to be distributed to holders of Allowed Claims on a pro rata basis.

(ii) On any date that distributions are to be made on account of Allowed Claims and after making all distributions to be made on any such date under the Plan, the Liquidation Trustee shall make a reasonable reserve on account of Disputed Claims and shall adjust the reserve periodically, which shall be no less than the amount of the Disputed Claims multiplied by the Pro Rata distribution to be made on account of Allowed Claims. If a Claim has been estimated under section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, the amount of the claim reserve will be based on the unpaid claim estimate. Such Disputed Claims Reserve shall be administered by the Liquidation Trustee. The reserve shall be closed and extinguished by the Debtors upon the determination that all distributions and other dispositions of Cash, or other distributions required to be made under the Plan have been made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon closure of a Disputed Claims Reserve, all Cash shall be subject to redistribution, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or the Liquidation Trust Agreement, any Claim not deemed filed pursuant to Section 1111(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or timely filed pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules, any applicable order of the Court or the provisions of the Plan, shall, based on stipulation or order of the Court entered after motion upon notice to the interested parties: (a) not be treated as an Allowed Claim and (b) be expunged from the Claims registers in the Chapter 11 Cases.

(d) Manner of Payments Under the Liquidating Trust. Payments to be made by the Liquidation Trustee pursuant to this Liquidation Trust Agreement shall be made in Cash or by check drawn from the Account. Distributions to holders of Allowed Claims shall be made by the Liquidation Trustee: (i) at the addresses set forth on the proofs of claims filed with the Court in the Chapter 11 Cases by such holders; (ii) at the addresses set forth in any written notices of address changes delivered to the Liquidation Trustee by such holders after the date of filing of any related proof of claim (in which event the notice of change will supersede and replace the address set forth on the related proof of claim and any address set forth in the Debtors' bankruptcy schedules); or (iii) at the addresses reflected in the Debtors' bankruptcy schedules if no proof of claim has been filed and the Liquidation Trustee has not received a written notice of a change of address. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any distributions to holders of Trust Preferred Securities Claims shall be made to the appropriate indenture trustee for the Trust Preferred Securities and shall be distributed by the indenture trustees for the Trust Preferred Securities in accordance with the Indentures and the Trusts.

(e) Fractional Cents. No payment of fractional cents shall be made pursuant to this Liquidation Trust Agreement. Whenever any payment of a fraction of a cent under this Liquidation Trust Agreement would otherwise be required, the actual Distribution made shall reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole penny (up or down), with half cents or more being rounded up and fractions less than half of a cent being rounded down.

(f) De Minimis Interim Distribution. If the amount distributable to a holder of an Allowed Claim would be less than $25.00 in the aggregate considering the distributions from the applicable Account for such Beneficiary (such distribution amount of less than $25.00,

a "De Minimis Interim Distribution"), then the Liquidation Trustee shall not make the De Minimis Interim Distribution, but rather shall hold the De Minimis Interim Distribution in reserve until such time as the aggregate amounts distributable to such holder of an Allowed Claim, combined, as of the next distribution, equals or exceeds $25.00, but in all events not later than the final distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the De Minimis Interim Distribution does not equal or exceed $25.00 prior to the date of the final distribution, then the Liquidation Trustee shall distribute such amount during the final distribution.

(g) Undeliverable Distributions.

(i) If any Allowed Claim holder's distribution is returned to the Liquidation Trustee as undeliverable, no further distributions to such holder shall be made unless and until the Liquidation Trustee is notified in writing of such holder's then current address, at which time all missed distributions shall be made to such holder without interest. Any Undeliverable Distribution made by the Liquidation Trustee shall be held for redistribution under the Plan. All claims for Undeliverable Distributions must be made on or before six months after the distribution is made, after which date all unclaimed property shall revert to the Liquidation Trustee free of any restrictions thereon, and the Claim of any holder or successor to such holder with respect to such property shall be discharged and forever barred notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary. Nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Liquidation Trustee or any professional retained by the foregoing to attempt to locate any holder of an Allowed Claim.

(ii) Checks issued by the Liquidation Trustee on account of Allowed Claims shall be null and void if not negotiated within ninety (90) days after the date of issuance thereof. After such date, all Claims in respect of void checks shall be forever barred, and the proceeds of such checks shall revest in the Liquidation Trustee and be subject to redistribution, as appropriate, in accordance with this Liquidation Trust Agreement.

5.05	Interest on Distributions.

Any interest earned by the funds in the Accounts shall inure to the benefit of the Liquidating Trust generally, and not specifically for any party. Beneficiaries are not entitled to interest on their claims with the exception of their pro rata share of any interest earned by the funds in the Accounts after payment of expenses that are distributed to holders of Allowed Claims generally.

5.06	Limitations on Liquidation Trustee.

(a) The Liquidation Trustee shall not at any time, on behalf of the Liquidating Trust or Beneficiaries, (i) enter into or engage in any trade or business, and no part of the Assets or the proceeds, revenue or income therefrom shall be used or disposed of by the Liquidating Trust in furtherance of any trade or business, except to the extent reasonably necessary to preserve and enhance the liquidation value of the Assets or (ii) except as provided below, reinvest any assets.

(b) All moneys and other assets received by the Liquidation Trustee shall, until distributed or paid over as herein provided, be held in trust for the benefit of the

Beneficiaries, but need not be segregated from other Assets, unless and to the extent required by law or as otherwise specified in this Liquidation Trust Agreement.

(c) The Liquidation Trustee shall be restricted to the holding, collection, conservation, protection and administration of the Assets in accordance with the provisions of this Liquidation Trust Agreement, and the payment and distribution of amounts as set forth herein for the purposes set forth in this Liquidation Trust Agreement.

5.07	Further Authorization.

The Liquidation Trustee shall be entitled to seek such orders, judgments, injunctions and rulings as the Liquidation Trustee deems necessary to carry out the intentions and purposes, and to give full effect to the provisions of the Plan and this Liquidation Trust Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of the Plan as modified and confirmed by the Confirmation Order, the latter shall control.

5.08	Withholding and Reporting Requirements.

In connection with the Plan and this Liquidation Trust Agreement and all distributions hereunder, the Liquidation Trustee shall comply with all applicable tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed by any federal, state, provincial, local or foreign taxing authority, and all distributions hereunder shall be subject to any such withholding and reporting requirements. The Liquidation Trustee shall be authorized to take any and all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Liquidation Trust Agreement, each Beneficiary that is to receive a distribution from the Account shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any governmental unit, including income, withholding and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution.

5.09	Determination of Tax Information With Respect to Allowed Claims.

Prior to making any distribution to a Person or Entity that is a Beneficiary on account of, and/or a holder of, an Allowed Claim pursuant to this Liquidation Trust Agreement, in the event the Liquidating Trust has not already been provided with a valid, properly completed Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form W-9 or a valid, properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (any successor, or otherwise applicable, form) (individually, an "IRS Form" and, collectively, the "IRS Forms"), as applicable, for the Beneficiary, the Liquidating Trust must request that such Beneficiary provide the Liquidating Trust with the applicable valid, properly completed IRS Form, and the Liquidating Trust need not, but may, make any distribution to such Beneficiary until the Liquidating Trust receives from such Beneficiary a valid, effective IRS Form that is applicable to such distribution. The Liquidation Trustee may in good faith rely upon the information received for the purposes of satisfying the Liquidation Trustee's tax reporting obligations. Such tax information shall be treated as confidential and shall only be disclosed as necessary to taxing authorities. If 90 days elapses and the Liquidation Trustee is unable to obtain a valid, properly completed IRS Form after a request, then the claimant shall not be entitled to a distribution from the Trust Fund Accounts.

5.10	Tax Returns/Tax Matters.

(a) The Liquidation Trustee shall file all tax returns, tax reporting, and other filings with governmental authorities on behalf of the Liquidating Trust and the Assets it holds for time periods ending on or before termination of this Liquidating Trust. Subject to definitive guidance from the Internal Revenue Service or a court of competent jurisdiction to the contrary (including the issuance of applicable Treasury Regulations, the receipt by the Liquidation Trustee of a private letter ruling if the Liquidation Trustee so requests one, or the receipt of an adverse determination by the Internal Revenue Service upon audit if not contested by the Liquidation Trustee) the Liquidation Trustee shall file tax returns for the Liquidating Trust as a grantor trust pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.671-4(a). The Liquidation Trustee's filings shall also include requests for determination of tax under Section 505(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (to the extent applicable) and responses to any tax audits, solely with respect to the Assets. The Liquidation Trustee shall make available such information to the Beneficiaries as shall enable them to properly file their separate tax returns and withhold and pay over any amounts required by tax law.

(b) The Liquidation Trustee is authorized to withhold or pay over any amounts required by law (including tax law) to be withheld or paid in connection with the transfer and assignment of the Assets to the Liquidating Trust pursuant to the Plan. The Liquidation Trustee is further entitled to deduct any United States federal or applicable state withholding taxes from any payments made with respect to Allowed Claims, as appropriate, and shall otherwise comply with Section 346 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) The Liquidation Trustee shall determine the fair market value of the Assets upon receipt and, to the extent necessary, such determined fair market value shall be used by the Liquidating Trust, the Liquidation Trustee and the Beneficiaries for all federal income tax purposes.

(d) The Liquidation Trustee shall timely file any and all Debtor tax returns or requests for extension, including, but not limited to, timely filing (i) all information returns (e.g., IRS Forms W-2 and 1099, as appropriate), (ii) all tax returns or requests for extension that either Debtor would have filed prior to their fiscal year end if they had not dissolved and (iii) all documents necessary and appropriate to request refunds of taxes owed to the Debtors' Estates.

5.11	Remaining Funds.

If any distribution check is not timely cashed by the recipient, and there are more than $15,000 in aggregate funds remaining when the case is otherwise fully administered, the Liquidation Trustee shall make a subsequent final Pro Rata distribution to the holders of Allowed Claims whose distributions have been claimed and not been returned. If there is less than $15,000 in aggregate funds remaining when the case is otherwise fully administered, the Liquidation Trustee may donate the remaining funds to a certified 503(c) charitable non-profit organization.

ARTICLE VI.
DURATION OF LIQUIDATING TRUST

6.01	Duration of Liquidating Trust.

This Liquidating Trust shall terminate on the date upon which all of the Assets have been distributed to the Beneficiaries and all of the necessary tax returns have been prepared and filed; provided, however, that the Liquidating Trust shall terminate no later than the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the date hereof; and provided further, however, that prior to such termination date, the Liquidation Trustee may seek multiple fixed-term extensions of such termination date from the Court if the extension is necessary for the liquidating purposes of the Liquidating Trust. Any such extension must be obtained at least three (3) months before the expiration of the original term and each extended term.

6.02	Closing of Chapter 11 Cases.

When each Disputed Claim filed against each of the Debtors has become an Allowed Claim or a disallowed Claim, and all Cash and property has been distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Liquidation Trust Agreement the Liquidation Trustee shall seek authority from the Court to close the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules and to enter the Final Decree.

6.03	Continuance of Liquidating Trust for Winding Up.

After the termination of the Liquidating Trust and for the purpose of liquidating and winding up the affairs of the Liquidating Trust, the Liquidation Trustee shall continue to act as such until its duties have been fully performed. Upon termination of the Liquidating Trust, the Liquidation Trustee shall retain for a period of seven years the books, records, Beneficiary lists, Register, and certificates and other documents and files which shall have been delivered to or created by the Liquidation Trustee. At the Liquidation Trustee's discretion, all other records and documents may, but need not, be destroyed at any time after two years from the completion and winding up of the affairs of the Liquidating Trust. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, upon the termination of the Liquidating Trust, the Liquidation Trustee shall have no further duties or obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE VII.
INDEMNIFICATION; LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY

7.01	General Indemnification.

The Liquidating Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless any person who was, or is, a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any pending or contemplated action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a member of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee, the Liquidation Trustee, or an agent, attorney, accountant or other professional of the Liquidation Trustee (each such person, an "Indemnified Person"), against all costs, expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, or the defense or settlement of any claim, issue or matter

therein, to the fullest extent, except to the extent such liability is determined to be the result of willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud. Costs or expenses incurred by any such Indemnified Person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Liquidating Trust in advance of the institution or final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, provided, however, that any such Indemnified Person shall promptly reimburse the Liquidating Trust for all such costs and expenses paid by the Liquidating Trust if it is finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, that liability by such Indemnified Person is a result of willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud. The Liquidation Trustee may in its discretion purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Indemnified Person who is or was a beneficiary of this provision.

7.02	No Recourse.

Except as provided in this Liquidation Trust Agreement, no recourse shall ever be had, directly or indirectly, against the members of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee in their capacity as members of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee or the Liquidation Trustee personally, or against any agent, representative, affiliate, attorney, accountant, financial consultant or other professional of the Liquidation Trustee, or against any agent, affiliate, representative, attorney, accountant, financial consultant or professional of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee by legal or equitable proceedings, or by virtue of any statute or otherwise, nor upon any promise, contract, instrument, undertaking, obligation, covenant or agreement whatsoever executed by the Liquidation Trustee under this Liquidation Trust Agreement, or by reason of the creation of any indebtedness by the Liquidation Trustee under this Liquidation Trust Agreement for any purpose authorized by this Liquidation Trust Agreement, it being expressly understood and agreed that all such liabilities, covenants and agreements shall be enforceable only against and be satisfied only out of the Assets or such part thereof as shall under the terms of any such agreement be liable therefor or shall be evidence only of a right of payment out of the Assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any member of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee or the Liquidation Trustee shall be subject to claims with recourse based upon its own willful misconduct, gross negligence, or fraud, as adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) nothing herein modifies or expands the exculpation and release provisions in Articles XII.D or XII.E of the Plan and the order confirming the Plan.

7.03	No Liability.

No successor Liquidation Trustee shall be in any way responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of any predecessor Liquidation Trustee in office prior to the date on which such Person becomes the Liquidation Trustee, nor shall such successor Liquidation Trustee be obligated to inquire into the validity or propriety of any such act or omission unless such successor Liquidation Trustee expressly assumes such responsibility. Any successor Liquidation Trustee shall be entitled to accept as conclusive any final accounting and statement of liquidation trust assets furnished to such successor Liquidation Trustee by the predecessor Liquidation Trustee and shall further be responsible only for those Assets included in such statement.

No predecessor Liquidation Trustee shall be in any way responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Liquidation Trustee, nor shall such predecessor Liquidation Trustee be obligated to inquire into the validity or propriety of any such act or omission.

7.04	Limitation on Liquidation Trustee's and Estate Representative's Liability.

The members of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee, in their capacity as such, and Liquidation Trustee and their respective agents, affiliates, attorneys, accountants, financial consultants or other professionals shall be exculpated from liability for any errors or omissions made in connection with their duties under this Liquidation Trust Agreement, except for liability for any errors or omissions arising from its own gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud. The foregoing limitation on liability shall apply equally to the agents, employees or professionals of the Liquidation Trustee acting on behalf of the Liquidation Trustee in the fulfillment of their duties under the Plan and this Liquidation Trust Agreement. Neither the Liquidation Trustee, nor any agent, affiliate, representative, attorney, accountant, financial consultant or professional of the Liquidation Trustee, nor any Beneficiaries, shall be personally liable with respect to any liabilities or obligations of the Liquidating Trust or any liabilities or obligations relating to the Assets, including, without limitation, those arising under this Liquidation Trust Agreement or with respect to the Liquidating Trust or the Assets and all persons dealing with the Liquidating Trust must look solely to the Assets for the enforcement of any claims against the Liquidating Trust.

7.05	Express Exculpatory Clauses in Instruments.

As far as practicable, the Liquidation Trustee shall cause any written instrument creating an obligation of the Liquidating Trust to include a reference to this Liquidation Trust Agreement and to provide that none of the Beneficiaries, the members of the Liquidation Trust Oversight Committee or the Liquidation Trustee or the Liquidation Trustee's respective agents, affiliates, attorneys, accountants, financial consultants or other professionals shall be liable thereunder and that the other parties to such instrument shall look solely to the Assets for the payment of any claim thereunder or the performance thereof; provided, however, that the omission of such provision from any such instrument shall not render any Beneficiary or the Liquidation Trustee or the Liquidation Trustee's respective agents, affiliates, attorneys, accountants, financial consultants, or other professionals liable nor shall the Liquidation Trustee, its agents, affiliates, attorneys, accountants, financial consultants or other professionals be liable to anyone for such omission.
