THE DEBTORS AND THE LENDERS STIPULATE AND THE COURT FINDS AND CONCLUDES THAT:

A. On November 17, 2010 (the “Petition Date ”), the Debtors each filed their voluntary petitions for relief with this *225Court under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (these “Chapter 11 Cases”). The Debtors are continuing in possession of their property, and operating and managing their businesses as a debtors in possession pursuant to Bankruptcy Code §§ 1107 and 1108.

B. This Court has jurisdiction over these Chapter 11 Cases and the Motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157(b) and 1334. Consideration of the Motion constitutes a core proceeding as defined in 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2).

C. The Debtors acknowledge and stipulate that from time to time prior to the Petition Date, the Pre-Petition Lenders loaned money to or for the benefit of the Debtors, pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Financing Agreement dated as of June 21, 2007, as amended, modified or restated from time to time (collectively, the “Loan Agreement ”), Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of June 21, 2007, as amended, modified or restated from time to time (collectively, the “Security Agreement ”) and as further documented, recorded and evidenced by various other agreements, instruments, financing statements and documents entered into in connection with the Loan Agreement and Security Agreement, all as may have been amended, modified or restated from time to time (collectively, including the Loan Agreement and Security Agreement, the “Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements ”).3

D. The Debtors acknowledge and stipulate that, in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, the Debtors are truly and justly indebted to the Pre-Petition Lenders, without defense, counterclaim or offset of any kind, and that as of November 17, 2010, (i)the Debtors were liable to the Pre-Petition Lenders in respect of loans made and letters of credit issued (the balance of the standby letter of credit was $3,952,388) pursuant to the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $70,243,251 (exclusive of interest and fees accrued and unpaid thereon and other costs, expenses and indemnities, and inclusive of the outstanding letter of credit and swap exposure) (collectively, inclusive of interest, fees, expenses and all Obligations, the “Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness ”), and (ii) pursuant to the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, the Debtors were liable to the Pre-Petition Lenders for accrued and unpaid interest, commitment fees, attorneys’ and advisors’ fees, other out-of-pocket expenses, costs and indemnities (collectively, subsections (i), and (ii) of this paragraph are the “Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness ”)4.

E.The Debtors acknowledge and stipulate that under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements and as security for repayment of the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Indebtedness, the Debtors granted to the Pre-Petition Lenders security interests in, and liens upon, substantially all of their assets (including without limitation all Accounts, Chattel Paper, Commercial Tort Claims, Deposit Accounts, Documents, General Intangibles, Goods, Instruments, Investment Property, *226Letters of Credit Rights, Pledged Interests, Supporting Obligations and all other tangible and intangible personal property and proceeds therein, excepting therefrom certain assets), as more fully described in the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference (collectively, including Cash Collateral (as defined below), the “Pre-Petition Collateral ”).

F. The Debtors acknowledge and stipulate that the Pre-Petition Lenders’ security interests in and liens on the Pre-Petition Collateral were properly perfected and are valid and enforceable first priority liens on and security interests in the Pre-Petition Collateral, subject to the Prior Permitted Liens (as defined below). The Debtors further acknowledge that their cash constitutes proceeds of the Pre-Petition Collateral and, therefore, is cash collateral of the Pre-Petition Lenders within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code § 363(a) (“Cash Collateral ”). The Pre-Petition Lenders are entitled, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code §§ 361 and 363(e), to adequate protection of their interest in the Pre-Petition Collateral, including for the use of Cash Collateral, the use, sale or lease of the Pre-Petition Collateral other than Cash Collateral, and for the imposition of the automatic stay.

G. The Debtors have represented that they do not have sufficient available sources of working capital and financing to operate their businesses in the ordinary course of business or operate their businesses and maintain their property in accordance with state and federal law and have commenced the orderly sale of their businesses and assets as going concerns to the extent possible. In order to complete their orderly sale process and maximize the value of their assets for the benefit of their creditors and estates, the Debtors’ have an immediate need for the financing set forth in this Order. In the absence of the Post-Petition Financing and the use of Cash Collateral, the orderly sale of the Debtors’ businesses and assets would not be possible, and would cause serious and irreparable harm to the Debtors and their estates.

H. The Debtors have represented that given their current financial condition, financing arrangements and capital structure, the Debtors cannot obtain unsecured credit allowable under Bankruptcy Code § 503(b)(1) as an administrative expense. The Debtors have represented that financing on a post-petition basis is not otherwise available without the Debtors’ (i) granting, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 364(c)(1), claims having priority over any and all administrative expenses of the kinds specified in Bankruptcy Code §§ 503(b) and 507(b), other than as described below in respect of the Carve-Out (as defined below), (ii) securing, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 364(c) and (d), such indebtedness and obligations with security interests in and liens on all of the Debtors’ personal property, real property and the Pre-Petition Collateral as described below, and (iii) providing for adequate protection of the Pre-Petition Lenders’ interests as described below.

I. On December 1, 2010, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the “Committee ”) was appointed by the United States Trustee in these Chapter 11 Cases.

J. Notice of the Final Hearing and the relief requested in the Motion has been given to (i) the Office of the United States Trustee (the “UST”), (ii) counsel to the Lenders, (iii) counsel to the Pre-Petition Lenders, (iv) proposed counsel to the Committee, and (v) the creditors holding the 20 largest unsecured claims against the Debtors on a consolidated basis. Under the circumstances, such notice of the Final *227Hearing and the relief requested in the Motion and as granted in this Final Order is authorized and adequate under Bankruptcy Rules 2002 and 4001(c), and no other or further notice need be given.

K. At the Final Hearing, the Court considered representations made by counsel, offers of proof, and/or testimony regarding:

(i) the negotiations pertaining to this Order;
(ii) the necessity for this Order; and
(iii) the events leading up to the filing of these Chapter 11 Cases by the Debtors.

L. Based on the record presented to the Court by the Debtors at the Preliminary Hearing and the Final Hearing, the Post-Petition Financing has been negotiated in good faith and at arm’s length between the Debtors, the Lenders and the Pre-Petition Lenders, and any credit extended, and any Post-Petition Financing, and post-petition loans, made available to the Debtors pursuant to the Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements shall be deemed to have been extended, issued or made, as the case may be, in good faith by the Lenders as required by, and within the meaning of, Bankruptcy Code § 364(e).

M. Based on the record presented to the Court by the Debtors at the Preliminary Hearing and the Final Hearing, the terms of the Post-Petition Financing appear to be fair and reasonable, are ordinary and appropriate for secured financing to debtors in possession, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties, and are supported by reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration.

N. The permission granted herein to enter into the Post-Petition Financing and obtain funds thereunder, and to use Cash Collateral in these Chapter 11 Cases. This Court concludes that entry of this Order is in the best interest of the Debtors’ estates and creditors as their implementation will, among other things, provide the Debtors with the necessary funds to conduct and complete the orderly sale of the Debtors’ businesses as going concerns to the extent possible and maximize the value of the Debtors’ assets for the benefit of their creditors and estates.

7. Immediately upon entry of this Final Order, the Debtors are hereby authorized to use Cash Collateral, provided that the Pre-Petition Lenders are granted adequate protection for any diminution in the value of the Collateral resulting from (i) the liens and security interests granted by the Post-Petition Financing and this Final Order or otherwise pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 364(d), (ii) the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 363(c), (iii) the use, sale or lease of the Collateral (other than Cash Collateral) pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 363(c) and (iv) the imposition of the automatic stay pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 362(a):

(ii) the Pre-Petition Lenders shall be and hereby are granted, pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 364(c)(1), Su-perpriority Claims, junior only to (x) the Superpriority Claims granted pursuant to this Final Order to the Lenders in respect of the PosL-Petition Financing and (y) the Carve-Out; and, provided, however, that the Superpriority Claims of the Pre-Petition Lenders shall not be payable from the proceeds of the Avoidance Actions or the Estate Resolution Consideration (as hereafter defined in Paragraph 33).

8. Under the circumstances, the adequate protection provided herein is reasonable and sufficient to protect the interests of the Pre-Petition Lenders; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall affect or impair the Lenders’ right to seek additional adequate protection of its interests. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the grant of adequate protection to the Pre-Petition Lenders pursuant hereto is without prejudice to the holders of any Prior Permitted Liens to seek modification of the grant of adequate protection provided hereby so as to provide different or additional adequate protection, and without prejudice to the right of the Debtors or any other party in interest to contest any such modification, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Final Order, the Avoidance Actions and the Estate Resolution Consideration (as hereafter defined in Paragraph 33) shall not be available as adequate protection, or paid to the Pre-Petition Lenders under any circumstances.

9. Except as set forth in Paragraphs 5 and 6 hereof, the Liens and Replacement Liens shall be prior and senior to all liens and encumbrances (other than Prior Permitted Liens) of all other secured creditors in and to such Collateral granted, or arising, after the Petition Date (including, without limitation, liens and security interests, if any, granted in favor of any federal, state, municipal or other governmental unit, commission, board or court for any liability of the Debtors). The Liens and Replacement Liens granted pursuant to this Final Order shall constitute valid and duly perfected security interests and liens, and the Pre-Petition Lenders shall not be required to file or serve financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments in respect of the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness which otherwise may be required under federal or state law in any jurisdiction, or take any action, including taking possession, to validate and perfect such security interests and liens; and the failure by the Debtors to execute any documentation relating to the Liens or Replacement Liens shall in no way affect the validity, perfection or priori*233ty of such Liens or Replacement Liens. If, however, the Pre-Petition Lenders at their sole discretion shall determine to file any such financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments, or to otherwise confirm perfection of such Liens or Replacement Liens, the Debtors are directed to cooperate with and assist in such process, the stay imposed by Bankruptcy Code § 362(a) is hereby lifted to allow the filing and recording of a certified copy of this Order or any such financing statements, notices of lien or similar instruments, and all such documents shall be deemed to have been filed or recorded at the time of and on the date of this Final Order.

10. Subject to Paragraph 33, proceeds or payments received by the Lenders and/or the Pre-Petition Lenders with respect to the Collateral upon which the Lenders had security interests or liens shall be applied as follows:

a. first, to the payment of all reasonable costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees of the Lenders;
b. second, to the payment of Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness consisting of accrued and accruing interest;
c. third, to the payment of Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness consisting of principal;
d. fourth, to the payment of Post-Petition Indebtedness including all accrued and accruing interest, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees; and

11. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a budget (the “Budget ”) for the period from November 17, 2010 through and including January 23, 2011, which has been consented to by the Lenders. The Budget reflects, on a line-item basis, anticipated cash receipts and expenditures on a weekly basis and includes all necessary and required expenses that the Debtors expect to incur during each month of the Budget. The Debtors shall be authorized to use the proceeds of the Post-Petition Indebtedness and the Collateral only for payment of such items as is set forth in the Budget and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements and this Final Order. The Budget shall be revised by the end of each month during the period of this Final Order, and which shall remain subject to the consent of the Lenders each month, provided, however, that the revised Budget may not reduce the amount of fees payable to the Committee Professionals. Not later than the second (2nd) business day of each week commencing with the second week of the period covered by the Budget, the Debtors shall provide to the Lenders and the Committee a variance report reflecting, on a line-item basis, the actual cash *234disbursements and revenues for the preceding week and the percentage variance (the “Variance Percent”) of such actual disbursements and revenues from those reflected in the Budget for that period. Revenues less than ninety percent (90%) of the budgeted amount for (a) the first two-week period of the Budget, (b) the first three-week period of the Budget, and (c) any consecutive four-week period of the Budget (“Allowed Revenue Variance ”) shall constitute an Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of this Final Order. Any disbursement by the Debtors other than for budgeted amounts as set forth in the Budget shall constitute an Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of this Final Order unless the Lenders consent to those changes in writing; provided, however, that the Debtors may make payments in excess of the total budgeted disbursements so long as (i) the Variance Percent of the aggregate of all actual disbursements for each week shall not exceed ten percent (10.0%) of the budgeted disbursements for that week; and (ii) the Variance Percent of the aggregate of all actual disbursements for (a) the first two-week period of the Budget, (b) the first three-week period of the Budget, and (c) any consecutive four-week period shall not exceed ten percent (10.0%) of the aggregate of all budgeted disbursements for such four-week period (subsections (i) and (ii) above are collectively, the “Allowed Disbursement Variance ”). For the avoidance of doubt, any amount included in the Budget that is not incurred or paid during a particular week shall be permitted to be carried over into subsequent weeks. The Debtors, the Pre-Petition Lenders and the Committee each shall cooperate with the other in good faith in creating a wind-down budget that provides for the orderly wind-down of the Debtors’ estates after the sale of substantially all of the Debtors’ assets.

12. The Debtors shall continue their Pre-Petition cash management system with the Pre-Petition Lenders, which shall include a lockbox/blocked account to which the Lenders will have full dominion and control over Cash Collateral and the cash proceeds of the Collateral pursuant to a lockbox/blocked account agreement and a cash management order requested to be entered at the first day hearing, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Lenders.

13. Immediately upon the entry of this Final Order, the Debtors shall account to the Lenders for all cash, checks, notes, drafts, instruments, acceptances or other property representing cash or other proceeds of the Pre-Petition Collateral in the Debtors’ possession, custody or control. All cash, checks, notes, drafts, instruments, acceptances and other property in the nature of items of payment representing proceeds of property and interests in property of the Debtors (collectively, “Cash Proceeds ”) currently in the possession of the Debtors or in any accounts in financial institutions, including any lock box or depository accounts, shall be deemed proceeds of the Collateral unless such proceeds are specifically identified as not being proceeds of Collateral. All Cash Proceeds shall be remitted to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Final Order and subject to Paragraph 10 hereof.

14. The agreement by the Lenders to make any Post-Petition Financing available to the Debtors and the agreement of the Pre-Petition Lenders to allow the use of Cash Collateral and the Collateral shall continue until and shall include January 23, 2011 (or such later date as may be agreed between the Debtors and the Lenders) or such earlier date as all Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Loan Indebtedness and Post-Petition Indebtedness is paid in full (the “Term ”), unless terminated prior *235to this date upon the occurrence of the Termination Date or otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements or this Final Order.

15. If a Default or an Event of Default (as defined in the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements or in this Final Order) occurs, the Lenders shall have the right to immediately suspend funding under Post-Petition Financing and upon the Lenders’ providing five (5) business days written notice to the Debtors, the UST, and the Committee (“Default Notice”), the Lenders may terminate the Post-Petition Financing facility (the date of any such termination, the “Termination Date ”) and declare the Loans to be immediately due and payable, and the automatic stay pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 362(a) shall be deemed lifted and modified, without further order of this Court, to permit the Lenders to exercise any and all of their rights and remedies under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements and this Final Order; provided, however, that the obligations and rights of the Lenders and the Debtors with respect to all transactions which have occurred prior to the Termination Date shall remain unimpaired and unaffected by any such termination and shall survive such termination (including the Carve-Out); and provided further that upon such termination the Lenders shall be deemed to have retained all of their rights and remedies, including, without limitation, as provided in the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements and under the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors’ right to use Cash Collateral shall terminate automatically on the Termination Date; provided however that subsequent to the issuance of the Default Notice the Debtors or the Committee may seek entry of an Order after notice and hearing allowing use of Cash Collateral and prohibiting the Pre-Petition Lenders from taking the actions contemplated in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Paragraph to the contrary, with regard to access to or use of any leasehold premises subject to an Objecting Landlord’s Lease, such access or use shall be limited to such access or use as is permitted in accordance with applicable state law, as is set forth in such respective Objecting Landlord’s Lease, as may be agreed to by the affected landlord or as is ordered by this Court after notice and a hearing.

An Event of Default under this Final Order shall include: (i) the entry of an order dismissing any of these Chapter 11 Cases or converting any of these Chapter 11 Cases to Chapter 7 cases, (ii) the entry of an order appointing a Chapter 11 trustee in any of these Chapter 11 Cases, (iii) the entry of an order granting any other claim superpriority status or a lien (other than a Prior Permitted Lien) equal or superior to the liens granted to the Lenders (except pursuant to an order under Bankruptcy Code § 506(c)), (iv) the entry of an order staying, reversing, vacating or otherwise modifying the Posh-Petition Financing under this Final Order (except as modified in a final order acceptable to Lenders) without the Lenders’ prior written consent, (v) the entry of an order in any of these Chapter 11 Cases appointing an examiner having enlarged powers beyond those set forth under Bankruptcy Code § 1106(a)(3) and (4), (vi) an Event of Default or Default under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements other than an existing default or one related to any financial covenants or to the filing of these Chapter 11 Cases or the consequences thereof, (vii) any material representation or material warranty by the Debtors to the Lenders that is incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made, (viii) there shall occur a material *236adverse disruption or change in the orderly sale of the Debtors’ business and assets as a going concern or a change of control shall occur other than pursuant to a plan of reorganization or sale, (ix) the entry of any order granting any relief from the automatic stay so as to allow a third party to proceed against any material asset or assets of the Debtors, other than relating to assets subject to Prior Permitted Liens which if granted will not materially or adversely affect current operations, (x) the commencement of any actions adverse to the Lenders and the Pre-Petition Lenders or their rights and remedies under this Final Order, or any other Bankruptcy Court order, (xi) the failure to pay in full the Post-Petition Indebtedness by the last day of the Term, (xii) the Allowed Revenue Variance or the Allowed Disbursement Variance as set forth in Paragraph 11 herein, is exceeded or (xiii) the failure to meet any of the 363 Sale Benchmarks (as defined below). The term “Default ” herein means the occurrence of any event which except for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements or in this Final Order).

17. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Lenders may exercise their rights and remedies and take all or any of the following actions without further modification of the automatic stay pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 362 which is hereby deemed modified and vacated to the extent necessary to permit such exercise of rights and remedies and the taking of such actions and without further order of or application to this Court: (a) suspend all Post-Petition Financing and loans to the Debtors, and enjoin and prohibit the Debtors from using Cash Collateral to the extent that such Default or Event of Default would permit such relief under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, as amended hereby; (b) suspend amounts in any accounts maintained with the Lenders, or otherwise enforce rights against all or part of any Collateral in the possession of the Lenders to the extent that such Default or Event of Default would permit such relief under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, as amended hereby; and/or (c) subject to the provisions of Paragraph 15 above, take any other action or exercise any other right or remedy of the Pre-Petition Lenders under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, this Final Order or by operation of law. Upon the Debtors’ receipt of a Default Notice, they shall immediately cease making any disbursements except those already accrued in accordance with the Budget, subject to further order of the Court after notice and a hearing. To the extent of any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Paragraph 17 and Paragraph 15, the provisions of Paragraph 15 shall control.

Subject to the Lenders’ discretion, the reimbursement contemplated hereby may be made by deducting such amounts from collections of the Lenders or by adding such amounts to the Post-Petition Indebtedness. Further, Ally shall be paid a Post-Petition Financing fee of $100,000, which shall be earned immediately upon entry of this Final Order but shall not be payable until the earlier of (a) the sales described in Paragraph 20 hereof and (b) the Termination Date, and shall constitute Post-Petition Indebtedness of the Debtors.

19. The Debtors are hereby required to deliver to the Lenders and the Committee such other financial and other information concerning the business and affairs of the Debtors as the Lenders and the Committee shall reasonably request from time to time, including, without limitation, the financial reports and information provided to the Pre-Petition Lenders under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements, provided however that the Debtors reserve their right to claim that any such documents are protected under attorney-client privilege to the extent permitted under applicable law. The Debtors shall cooperate with and permit the Lenders to perform physical inventories of all assets in the Debtors’ facilities at any reasonable times requested by the Lenders.

20. The Lenders’ and the Pre-Petition Lenders’ obligations hereunder and under the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements shall be subject to the following benchmarks for certain events in these Chapter 11 Cases (each and collectively, the “363 Sale Benchmarks ”):

32. To the extent there exists any conflict between the Pre-Petition Lenders’ Pre-Petition Agreements and the terms of this Final Order, this Final Order shall govern.
