Within Tranche 2, the holders of Senior Notes Postpetition Interest Claim Liquidating Trust Interests and the holders of Subordinated Notes Prepetition Claim Liquidating Trust Interests and Postpetition Interest Claim Liquidating Trust Interests will share Pro Rata based on the size of those claims. For the calculation of the General Unsecured Creditors’ Pro Rata Share in all Tranches, see Note 4.
|
|||
(2)
|
Holders of Liquidating Trust Interests will be paid in order with Tranche 2 Liquidating Trust Interests (if any) receiving distributions first and Tranche 6 Liquidating Trust Interests (if any) receiving distributions last. Claims of Tranche 2 Liquidating Trust Interests (if any) must be satisfied in full prior to Tranche 3 Liquidating Trust Interests receiving distributions and so forth.
|
(3)
|
All CUSIP numbers that appear in this Annex C refer to the CUSIP numbers for the applicable tranches of debt, as applicable, as of March 2012.
|
|||
(4)
|
There shall be only one class of General Unsecured Creditor Liquidating Trust Interests. The Pro Rata Share for holders of General Unsecured Creditor Liquidating Trust Interests is calculated by dividing (a) the amount of General Unsecured Claims, by (b) the total cash distributed within the Tranche. The cash distributed within the Tranche is the lesser of (i) the amount necessary to satisfy all claims within the Tranche or (ii) the amount of cash available. Separate Liquidating Trust Interest sub-Tranches may need to be issued by claim in order to track interest accretion post the Effective Date.
|
|||
(5)
|
Each CCB Guarantee Liquidating Trust Interest under Tranche 3 represents the related class of CCB preferred securities only, in each case as described more specifically in Exhibits A and B of the Plan. In accordance with the terms of the Global Settlement Agreement, and upon implementation thereof, holders of CCB-related common securities will release all claims against the Debtors and will not receive a distribution related to such common securities. While no funds or Liquidating Trust Interests will be distributed in relation to CCB-related common securities, amounts claimed by holders of CCB-related common securities with respect to CCB Guarantees will be taken into account for disbursement calculation purposes.
|
|||
(6)
|
See Note 9 below for a description of pro rata sharing with General Unsecured Creditor Liquidating Trust Interests.
|
|||
(7)
|
The Subordinated PIERS Liquidating Trust Interests are representative of the common PIERS securities and are owned by WMI. While Subordinated PIERS Liquidating Trust Interests will be issued for disbursement calculation purposes, as set forth in the Plan, WMI will not collect any funds in association with these Subordinated PIERS Liquidating Trust Interests. See Note 9 below for a description of pro rata sharing with General Unsecured Creditor Liquidating Trust Interests.
|
|||
(8)
|
Holders of Liquidating Trust Interests on account of Allowed Late-Filed Claims will be paid only after all other pre-Petition Date claims (other than Subordinated Claims) are paid in full without giving effect to applicable turnover provisions. Liquidating Trust Interests on Allowed Late-Filed Claims will not share pro rata with Liquidating Trust Interests based on any other claims. Therefore, to the extent holders of Liquidating Trust Interests on Allowed Late-Filed Claims are paid, this will create a break in the recovery of other creditors prior to their recovery on account of post-petition interest. The placement of Liquidating Trust Interests for Allowed Late-Filed Claims in the chart above is illustrative only, as the size of the Allowed General Unsecured Claims and the amount of post-Petition Date interest turned over on account of contractual subordination provisions will influence the position of relevant Liquidating Trust Interests in the waterfall. The Liquidating Trust Interests for Allowed Late-Filed Claims will, in any event, be paid immediately after satisfaction of General Unsecured Creditor Liquidating Trust Interests, but prior to the payment of post-Petition Date interest and Liquidating Trust Interests on Subordinated Claims.
|
|||
(9)
|
If it is provided for in an applicable contract or by law, the General Unsecured Creditors Liquidating Trust Interests will share pro rata in distributions to holders of PIERS Liquidating Trust Interests on account of post-Petition Date interest with respect to all Postpetition Interest Claims, including Postpetition Interest Claims to which the holders of PIERS Claims have been subrogated (on account of turnover in accordance with contractual subordination provisions). The chart above is illustrative only, as the point at which the holders of Allowed General Unsecured Liquidating Trust Interests begin receiving post-Petition Date interest is dependent on the size of the Allowed General Unsecured Prepetition Claims and the amount of post-Petition Date interest paid pursuant to contractual subordination. Separate Liquidating Trust Interest sub-Tranches may need to be issued by claim in order to track interest accretion post the Effective Date.
|
(10)
|
Subordinated Claims, as defined in the Plan, will be issued Liquidating Trust Interests on account of those claims in Tranche 5 when Tranche 2 through Tranche 4 Liquidating Trust Interests have been satisfied in full.
|
|||
(11)
|
Holders of Preferred Equity Interests and Common Equity Interests will be issued Liquidating Trust Interests in Tranche 6 on account of those interests when Tranche 2 through Tranche 5 Liquidating Trust Interests have been satisfied in full. Further, distribution to Tranche 6 will be shared 75% and 25% pro rata between claims on account of Preferred Equity Interests and Common Equity Interests, respectively.
