Common use of Discharge of Debtors Clause in Contracts

Discharge of Debtors. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, on the Effective Date, without further notice or order, all Claims of any nature whatsoever shall be automatically discharged forever. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Confirmation Order, on the Effective Date, the Debtors, their Estates and all successors thereto shall be deemed fully discharged and released from any and all Claims, including, but not limited to, demands and liabilities that arose before the Effective Date, and all debts of the kind specified in sections 502(g), 502(h), and 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or not (a) a proof of claim based upon such debt is filed or deemed filed under section 501 of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) a Claim based upon such debt is allowed under section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code; or (c) the holder of a Claim based upon such debt has accepted the Plan. The Confirmation Order shall be a judicial determination of discharge of all liabilities of the Debtors, their Estates, and all successors thereto. As provided in section 524 of the Bankruptcy Code, such discharge shall void any judgment against the Debtors, their Estates or any successor thereto at any time obtained to the extent it relates to a discharged Claim, and operates as an injunction against the prosecution of any action against the Reorganized GSI Entities or property of the Debtors or their Estates to the extent it relates to a discharged Claim. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained in the Disclosure Statement, Plan and/or Confirmation Order, no provision shall preclude the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from enforcing its police or regulatory powers; and provided further, notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained in the Disclosure Statement, Plan and/or Confirmation Order, no provision shall release any nondebtor from liability in connection with any legal action or claim brought by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This paragraph shall not affect or limit the discharge granted to the Debtors under sections 524 and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code.
