APPENDIX O

 

Sample Plan—Liquidation

The following plan is, as of the time of publication, currently proposed for confirmation in the Baptist Foundation of Arizona bankruptcy in Phoenix, Arizona. With combined debts of over $800 million, the case is the largest bankruptcy of a charitable organization in U.S. history. The Baptist Foundation's failure derives from what is known as "affinity fraud" — using victims' unquestioning faith in a religious or charitable organization to encourage investment in speculative and undercapitalized ventures. The Baptist Foundation's not-for-profit status made it exempt from securities laws and able to sell its securities without disclosing the speculative nature of the Baptist Foundation's investments. In the Chapter 11 case, to realize at least a significant return to the security-holders (many of whom are elderly pensioners and some of whom had invested most of their net worth), the plan of reorganization effects a "controlled liquidation" of the Baptist Foundation, distributing to creditors beneficial shares in a liquidating trust and certificates in two asset pools (held by newly-created entities) that will be held for a term of years to allow those assets to mature and produce income to creditors. The Baptist Foundation of Arizona will, shortly after confirmation, be dissolved. The plan also involves the substantive consolidation of the 90 plus estates of the debtor entities.

INTRODUCTION

Baptist Foundation of Arizona ("BFA"), Arizona Southern Baptist New Church Ventures, Inc. ("NCV"), ALO, Inc. ("ALO"), E.V.I.G., Inc. ("EVIG"), and their subsidiaries and affiliates that are Chapter 11 debtors ("Chapter 11 Affiliates" and, together with BFA, NCV, ALO and EVIG, the "Debtors") propose the following joint plan of reorganization (the "Plan") for the resolution of their outstanding Claims including, without limitation, all Investor Claims and Equity Interests. All Creditors and other parties-in-interest should refer to the Disclosure Statement Summary and the Disclosure Statement contemporaneously filed with the Plan, for a discussion of the Debtors' history, business, properties, results of operations, risk factors, a summary and analysis of the Plan, and other related matters. The Debtors are the proponents of the Plan within the meaning of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.

All holders of claims against the Debtors are encouraged to read the Plan, the Disclosure Statement Summary, the Disclosure Statement and the related solicitation materials in their entirety before voting to accept or reject the Plan.

The Plan provides for the orderly sale over time of the assets of the Debtors and the Non-Debtor Affiliates (as defined below). To facilitate the orderly sale of such assets, a Liquidating Trust will be created. To minimize administrative costs and preserve certain favorable tax advantages, including a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $150,000,000, the Liquidating Trust will hold all of the capital stock in the New Residential Real Estate Subsidiary and the sole membership interest in the New Asset Subsidiary, LLC (as both terms are defined below). All of the assets of the Debtors and the Non-Debtor Affiliates will be transferred to either the New Residential Real Estate Subsidiary or the New Asset Subsidiary, LLC , subject to any valid and enforceable Liens, except as otherwise provided in the Plan.

In addition, under the Plan, the Debtors and the Non-Debtor Affiliates will transfer and assign any and all claims and causes of action of any kind that they may have to the Liquidating Trust. The Liquidating Trust will be governed and administered by the Liquidating Trustee, and all periodic cash distributions to the holders of Allowed Claims under the Plan will be made by the Liquidating Trust.

Following the Effective Date, the Debtors and the Non-Debtor Affiliates will no longer conduct their business. This Plan also provides for the dissolution of the Debtors and the Non-Debtor Affiliates following the Effective Date.

Subject to the restrictions on modifications set forth in Section 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 3019, and those restrictions on

modification set forth in the Plan, the Debtors reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, revoke or withdraw this Plan prior to its substantial consummation.

Executive Guide to Corporate Bankruptcy

In addition, each Cash distribution that the holder of an Allowed Investor Claim is entitled to receive under the Plan shall be reduced by the Preference Equalization Credit until such reductions equal the total amount of the Cash, without interest, such holder received during the Preference Period. If the amount of Cash to be distributed to a holder of an Investor Claim on any Distribution Date is less than the Preference Equalization Credit determined for such Distribution Date, then such remaining amount of Preference Equalization Credit shall be credited against such holder's Cash distribution on the next succeeding Distribution Date (and if not fully utilized on such Distribution Date, on each succeeding Distribution Date until the remaining Preference Equalization Credit is fully utilized), in addition to any Preference Equalization Credit determined on the next succeeding Distribution Date.

Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019 and in consideration of the distributions and other benefits provided under the Plan, the provisions of this Section 0 constitute a good faith compromise and settlement of the claims the Debtors believe they have against the holder of an Investor Claim electing the Preference Settlement Option under Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code. The entry of the Confirmation Order constitutes the Bankruptcy Court's approval of the compromise and settlement of such preference claim, and the Bankruptcy Court's finding that such compromise or settlement is in the best interests of the Debtors and their respective property and the holders of Claims and is fair, equitable and reasonable.

No Election. If the holder of an Investor Claim that has received Cash during the Preference Period does not elect the Preference Settlement Option, pursuant to Section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, such Claim shall be deemed a Disputed Claim and all distributions that the holder of such Investor Claim is entitled to receive under the Plan shall be included in the Distribution Reserve by the Liquidating Trust pending the entry of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court resolving the Avoidance Actions.

Cancellation of Debt Instruments. As of the Effective Date, except to the extent provided otherwise in the Plan, all Debt Instruments and other documents evidencing Investor Claims, including any alleged or putative Lien securing such Investor Claims, shall be automatically canceled, extinguished, and deemed void (all without further action by any Person), and all obligations of any Person, including the Debtors and Non-Debtor Affiliates, and such instruments and documents shall be deemed fully and finally, released, satisfied and discharged.

The Debtors and the Liquidating Trust shall have no further obligation to recognize any transfer of an Investor Claim occurring after the Distribution

Delivery of Distribution to Holders of Investor Claim. All distributions to the holder of Allowed Investor Claims shall be made by the Liquidating Trust or the Disbursing Agent at the direction of the Liquidating Trustee in accordance with the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement at the address contained in the records of the Debtors as of the Effective Date. If any holder's distribution is returned as undeliverable, no further distributions to such holder shall be made unless and until the Liquidating Trust is notified of such holder's then current address, at which time all missed distributions shall be made to such holder without interest. Undeliverable distributions shall be returned to the Liquidating Trust until such distributions are claimed. All claims for undeliverable distributions shall be made on or before one year following each Distribution Date. After the expiration of such period, all unclaimed distributions shall be included in the next distribution to the holders of all other Allowed Investor Claims as provided in the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement. After such one-year period, the Claim of any holder of an Investor Claim for undeliverable distributions shall be discharged and forever barred notwithstanding any federal or state escheat laws to the contrary.

Interest. In the event the total distributions to the holders of Allowed Investor Claims as provided in the Plan exceed the amount of Allowed Investor Claims, the holders thereof shall be entitled to receive simple interest and payments on account thereof, up to the amount of any such excess distributions, at the rate of ten percent (10%) per year accruing from and after the Effective Date.

Collateral Transferred to Platform Subsidiaries.
