IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. The Signature Plan is approved and confirmed under 11 U.S.C. § 1129.²The exhibits appended to the Final Plan, the documents contained in the Plan Supplement not otherwise superseded by the exhibits attached to the Final Plan, and the Schedule of Assumed Agreements are authorized and approved, shall be deemed a part of the Signature Plan, and are incorporated by this reference. The failure to reference or discuss any particular provision of the Signature Plan in this Order shall have no effect on this Court’s approval and authorization of, or the validity, binding effect and enforceability of, such provision; and each provision of the Signature Plan is authorized and approved and shall have the same validity, binding effect and enforceability as every other provision of the Signature Plan, whether or not mentioned in this Order.

2. The provisions of the Signature Plan and this Order will bind the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, and all creditors and shareholders of the Debtor, whether or not the Claims or Equity Interests of these Persons are impaired under the Signature Plan, whether or not these Persons have voted to accept or reject the Signature Plan, and whether or not these Persons have filed proofs of Claim or Equity Interest or are deemed to have filed proofs of Claim or Equity Interest in the Case.


²		Unless otherwise indicated, all chapter, section, and rule references are to 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 through 1532 (“Bankruptcy Code”), to the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, Rules 101 through 9037 (“Bankruptcy Rules”), and to the Local Bankruptcy Rules of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California, Rules 1001-1 through 9075-1 (“Local Bankruptcy Rules”).

3. The Reorganized Debtor may enter into, execute and deliver any and all agreements, documents and/or instruments and take any and all actions necessary or desirable to implement the Signature Plan, this Order, the Management Agreement between CP Management and the Reorganized Debtor, the Warrant Agreement, the Subscription Agreement, the Merger transactions (including without limitation, the merger of FGCC into the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable) and then the merger of FRC into the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor (as applicable)), the amendment of corporate governance documents (such as certificates of incorporation, bylaws, or similar charter documents) to the extent necessary to authorize the transactions discussed in Section IV.G of the Signature Plan, the “Leucadia Provision” restricting the transfer of Common Stock, the establishment of the Administrative Claims Reserve (defined below), the establishment of the Repurchase Claims Reserve, the $39 million New Note to the TOPrS, the New Indenture, the $10 million capital contribution into the Reorganized Debtor, the issuance of Common Stock and Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement, each Subscription Agreement, and any other transaction contemplated under those documents or the Signature Plan. To effectuate these transactions and the Signature Plan, the officers and directors of the Debtor and the Reorganized Debtor, or any other Person designated by the Board of Directors of the Reorganized Debtor, are authorized — without further notice or application to or order from this Court — to enter into, execute, deliver, file, and/or record any and all agreements, documents and/or instruments and to take any other actions that those officers or directors may determine to be necessary or desirable, regardless of whether such agreements, documents, instruments or actions are specifically referred to in the Signature Plan or this Order, provided, however, that any corporate actions necessary to effectuate the Signature Plan shall be taken by the new Board of Directors and officers appointed pursuant to the terms of the Signature Plan, and none of the current officers or directors of the Debtor, FGCC, or FRC shall be required to take any such action. To the extent that, under applicable non-bankruptcy law, any of these actions otherwise would require the consent or approval (including execution of agreements, documents and/or instruments) of the shareholders or the Debtor or the directors or officers of the Debtor, this Order constitutes that consent and approval. No further documents or actions shall be required to effectuate the merger, authorize the issuance of stock and warrants provided for by the Signature Plan,

or otherwise effectuate the Signature Plan, and the Board of Directors of the Reorganized Debtor shall be authorized to ratify any actions taken by the Reorganized Debtor to effectuate the Signature Plan on or after the Effective Date, and such action shall be deemed to have occurred on the Effective Date.

4. On the Effective Date, all directors of the Board of Directors of the Debtor and its subsidiaries shall be deemed to have resigned from such positions, including without limitation, from their positions on any committees of the Boards of Directors, without the need for any further notice, action, order, or approval of this Court, or other act or action under applicable laws. On the Effective Date, the new members of the Board of Directors of the Reorganized Debtor shall be deemed appointed, without the need for any further notice, action, order or approval of this Court, or other act or action under applicable laws. Concurrently, on the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall be authorized to immediately take all necessary action to appoint directors for any of the Reorganized Debtor’s remaining subsidiaries, without the need for any further notice, action, order, or approval of this Court, or other act or action under applicable laws.

5. On and as of the Effective Date, the Board of Directors of the Reorganized Debtor and all subsidiaries thereof shall consist of the following nine (9) members: Craig F. Noell, Kenneth S. Grossman, John Nickoll, Robert Schwab, John M. Koral, Norman Matthews, Richard A. Rubin, and two directors to be nominated by the TOPrS Group and approved in accordance with the Signature Plan. If the TOPrS Group has not made its nominations by the Effective Date, then such nominations shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date. Notice of the TOPrS Group nominations shall be filed with the Court and served on the U.S. Trustee and those parties who have requested special notice.

6. The issuance of stock pursuant to the Signature Plan shall be exempt from any securities laws regulation requirements to the fullest extent permitted by Bankruptcy Code section 1145, Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and any other applicable exemptions.

7. All commercially reasonable arrangements with Signature and other parties regarding funding of the $10 million capital contribution into the Reorganized Debtor in return for 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.80 per share are approved. Such funds shall be placed into segregated

account(s) by May 14, 2010 and shall be held solely for disbursement in accordance with the Signature Plan.

8. On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor is authorized to issue and shall issue twelve million five hundred thousand (12,500,000) shares of Common Stock to the Signature Investors in accordance with the Signature Plan.

9. All arrangements with Signature regarding paying up to an aggregate of $300,000 to acquire Warrants to purchase 15 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.03 per share, including the vesting schedule of such Warrants under Section IV.A of the Signature Plan, are approved.

10. On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor is authorized to issue and shall issue twenty-one million (21,000,000) shares of Common Stock to the Holders of Class 3C Claims in accordance with the Signature Plan.

11. As of the Effective Date and upon the payment of the cure payments under Bankruptcy Code section 365(b)(1) (if applicable), pursuant to Section III of the Signature Plan, each of the Assumed Agreements (as defined in the Findings and Conclusions) shall be deemed assumed by the Reorganized Debtor and shall be in full force and effect, except to the extent that they have been modified consensually with the agreement of the parties thereto.

12. To the extent that the non-debtor party to any Assumed Agreement has filed a proof of Claim against the Debtor asserting prepetition arrearages under an Assumed Agreement or asserting a rejection damage claim, payment of the cure payment pursuant to Section III of the Signature Plan shall be deemed to satisfy, in full, any prepetition arrearage or rejection damage claim, irrespective of whether the cure payment is less than the amount set forth in any such proof of Claim.

13. Each of the Rejected Agreements (as defined in the Findings and Conclusions) shall be deemed rejected by the Debtor as of the Effective Date. The deadlines, procedures and sanctions set forth in Section III of the Signature Plan regarding the assertion of Claims for damages arising from such rejection are approved and established.

14. Any party wishing to assert a Professional Fee Claim or Non-Ordinary Course Administrative Claim against the Estate must, on or before 30 days after the Effective Date, both file

with the Court a final fee application or a motion requesting allowance of the fees or claim and serve the application or motion on the Reorganized Debtor and the U.S. Trustee. Subject to the Indenture Trustees providing invoices to counsel to Signature, which shall be subject only to Signature’s review for reasonableness under the applicable Indenture, the Reorganized Debtor shall pay or cause to be paid in full and in cash as an Administrative Claim, without the need for application to, or approval of, any court, or consent of any other party without reduction to the recovery of applicable holders of allowed claims, any and all Indenture Trustee Fees and other amounts that are due to each of the Indenture Trustees and their respective Professionals as of the Effective Date on or before the Effective Date or within ten (10) days of the Indenture Trustee providing counsel to Signature such invoices if the invoice is not provided prior to the Effective Date. If Signature disputes any portion of the fees and expenses sought by the Indenture Trustees by means of a written notification of such fee or expense dispute delivered to the Indenture Trustee during such ten (10) day period, the Reorganized Debtor shall pay or cause to be paid that undisputed portion of the requested fees and costs within ten (10) days of receipt of the invoices from the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to seek a determination by the Court of that disputed portion of the fees and costs as reasonable under the applicable Indenture or assert its Charging Lien to pay such disputed amounts. In the event of any conflict between this Order and the Signature Plan with respect to those matters covered by this paragraph 14, the terms of this paragraph 14 shall prevail.

15. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Confirmation Date, the Debtor shall provide Signature with an estimate of the amount of Administrative Claims it reasonably believes will be outstanding as of and after the Effective Date (the “Administrative Claims Reserve Amount”). On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall fund into a segregated account cash in an amount equal to the Administrative Claims Reserve Amount (the “Administrative Claims Reserve”). Absent further order of the Court (obtained via an application by the Reorganized Debtor on at least fifteen (15) days’ notice to any Person holding an unpaid Administrative Claim as of the Effective Date (other than an Ordinary Course Administrative Claim)), the funds in the Administrative Claims Reserve shall remain in the segregated account (for the benefit of the holders of unpaid Administrative Claims (other than Ordinary Course Administrative Claims)) except to the extent such funds are used by the

Reorganized Debtor to satisfy Allowed Administrative Claims (other than Ordinary Course Administrative Claims) in accordance with the terms of the Signature Plan. For the avoidance of any doubt whatsoever, the establishment and existence of the Administrative Claims Reserve shall not be construed, in any way, as limiting the Reorganized Debtor’s obligation to satisfy any and all Allowed Administrative Claims in full in accordance with the terms of the Signature Plan (and without regard to whether there are sufficient funds available in the Administrative Claims Reserve to satisfy any such claim).

16. Except as provided in the Signature Plan, upon the Effective Date, all Assets that are property of the Estate as of the Effective Date, including all Causes of Action, Rights of Action, and Avoidance Actions, will vest (and will be deemed to have vested as of the Effective Date) in the Reorganized Debtor free and clear of the Claims of any Creditors. From and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor, pursuant to the Management Agreement, may operate its business and use, acquire and dispose of property and settle and compromise liabilities without supervision by the Court and free of any restrictions of the Bankruptcy Code or Bankruptcy Rules, other than those restrictions expressly imposed by the Signature Plan and this Order.

17. On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtor shall execute and deliver the New Indenture and the $39 million new note to the TOPrS bearing 9% annual interest, payable quarterly commencing one quarter after the Effective Date and continuing quarterly thereafter, with a final maturity on December 31, 2016, as provided under and pursuant to the Signature Plan.

18. The Disbursing Agent or the respective Indenture Trustee, as applicable, is authorized to make all Distributions provided for under the Signature Plan in the manner set forth in Section VII of the Signature Plan. Subject to the Indenture Trustee providing invoices to counsel to Signature, which shall be subject only to Signature’s review for reasonableness under the applicable Indenture, the Reorganized Debtor shall pay or cause to be paid in full and in cash as an Administrative Claim, without the need for application to, or approval of, any court, or consent of any other party without reduction to the recovery of applicable holders of allowed claims, any and all Indenture Trustee Fees and other amounts that are due to each of the Indenture Trustees and their respective Professionals as of the Effective Date on or before the Effective Date or within ten (10) days of the Indenture Trustee

providing counsel to Signature such invoices if the invoice is not provided prior to the Effective Date. If Signature disputes any portion of the fees and expenses sought by the Indenture Trustees by means of a written notification of such fee or expense dispute delivered to the Indenture Trustee during such ten (10) day post-Effective Date period, the Reorganized Debtor shall pay or cause to be paid that undisputed portion of the requested fees and costs within ten (10) days of receipt of the invoices from the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to seek a determination by the Court of that disputed portion of the fees and costs as reasonable under the applicable Indenture or assert its Charging Lien to pay such disputed amounts. In the event of any conflict between this Order and the Signature Plan with respect to those matters covered by this paragraph 18, the terms of this paragraph 18 shall prevail.

19. The discharge and injunction provisions set forth in Section IX.A of the Signature Plan are approved and established as if fully set forth herein.

20. The exculpation provision set forth in Section X.F of the Signature Plan is approved and established. The exculpation provision reads as follows:

As of the Effective Date, neither the Debtor, FGCC or FRC (including, without limitation, their successors or assigns, including, without limitation, the Reorganized Debtor, the Disbursing Agent, the Board of Directors and Board of Directors’ Agents) or the Creditors’ Committee, the Equity Committee, the Indenture Trustees, Signature, New World Acquisition, LLC, Kenneth S. Grossman, Daniel Pfeiffer or James A. McIntyre, Sr., and, in each case, none of their respective present or former officers, directors, employees, members, agents, representatives, shareholders, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, investment bankers, lenders, consultants, experts, and professionals and agents for the foregoing shall have or incur any liability for, and are expressly exculpated and released from, any claims (as such term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) (including, without limitation, any claims whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, then existing or thereafter arising, in law, equity or otherwise) for any past or present or future actions taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with, related to, effecting, or arising out of the Case, including those claims arising out of the discharge of the powers and duties conferred upon the Indenture Trustee for the Senior Notes and the Indenture Trustee for the Junior Notes by the Senior Notes Indenture or Junior Notes Indenture, respectively, or the Plan or any order of the Court entered pursuant to or in

furtherance of the Plan, or applicable law, including, without limitation, the formulation, negotiation, documentation, preparation, dissemination, implementation, administration, confirmation, solicitation, or consummation of this Plan and the Disclosure Statement; except only for actions or omissions to act to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a Final Order) to be by reason of such party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud, and in all respects, such party shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of counsel with respect to its duties and responsibilities under this Plan. It, being expressly understood that any act or omission with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, will be conclusively deemed not to constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud unless the approval of the Bankruptcy Court was obtained by fraud or misrepresentation.

21. In addition to the exculpation set forth above and in Section X.F of the Signature Plan, similar exculpation is hereby provided to and approved for each of U.S. Bank National Association, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, consistent with the provisions of (1) paragraph 5 of that certain Order Granting Motion for Order Approving Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement By and Among U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee, Fremont Reorganizing Corporation, and Fremont General Corporation [Docket No. 1661]; (2) paragraph 7 of that certain Order Granting Motion for Order Approving Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement By and Among Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee, Fremont Reorganizing Corporation, and Fremont General Corporation [Docket No. 1987]; and (3) paragraph 5 of that certain Order Granting Motion for Order Approving Stipulations By and Among Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, Fremont Reorganizing Corporation, and Fremont General Corporation [Docket No. 1803].

22. On the Effective Date, the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee shall be disbanded, released and discharged from the rights and duties arising from or related to the Case, except with respect to matters relating to final fee applications for Professionals’ compensation. The Professionals retained by the Creditors’ Committee and the Equity Committee and the members thereof, solely in their capacities as members of the Creditors’ Committee or Equity Committee, shall not be entitled to compensation or reimbursement of expenses for any services rendered after the Effective Date, except for services rendered and expenses incurred in connection with any applications

by such professionals or Creditors’ Committee or Equity Committee members for allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses pending on the Effective Date or timely Filed after the Effective Date as provided in the Signature Plan.

23. In accordance with Bankruptcy Code section 1146(a), the issuance, transfer or exchange of a security, or the making or delivery of an instrument of transfer under the Signature Plan may not be taxed under any law imposing a stamp tax or similar tax. All governmental officials and agents shall forego the assessment and collection of any such tax or governmental assessment and accept for filing and recordation any of the foregoing instruments or other documents without payment of such tax or other governmental assessment.

24. As provided by Section V.B of the Signature Plan, the Claims Objection Deadline shall be 180 days after the Effective Date; provided, however, that this deadline may be extended by further order of the Court upon a motion by the Reorganized Debtor demonstrating “cause” for such extension(s).

25. Any claim objections that could be made by the Debtor under that certain Stipulation Between Fremont General Corporation and the United States of America Regarding (1) the IRS Proof of Claim and (2) the Debtor’s Pending 9019 Motion Concerning a Closing Agreement [Docket No. 1636] or any other stipulation or agreement entered into by the Debtor during the Case may be made by the Reorganized Debtor.

26. As provided by Section V.A of the Signature Plan, the Register Update filed by the Debtor [Docket No. 1620], as such may be amended or updated prior to the Effective Date, is hereby deemed to supersede and supplant this Court’s official claims register, and may hereafter be relied upon by the Reorganized Debtor and any retained third party as the official Post-Confirmation Claims Register.

27. The Reorganized Debtor shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to become current with its reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and to obtain a listing on a major U.S. securities exchange.

28. Upon entry of this Order and subject solely to the Signature Plan becoming effective, in consideration for Signature and James McIntyre’s agreement, as co-plan proponents, to modify the

Signature Plan (through this Order) arising from requests by the Official Committee of Equity Holders (the “OEC”) to provide that the Reorganized Debtor will implement and adhere to the undertakings listed below in items (a)-(e) (the “OEC Requested Undertakings”), the OEC shall upon the Signature Plan becoming effective be deemed to have waived any and all right(s) it has to appeal or move for (or otherwise seek) reconsideration, review, rehearing, or certiorari of, or relief from, this Order or any other order entered in this Case or any ruling in this Case (which was not the subject of an order from this Court or otherwise), or any of the Court’s findings of fact or conclusions of law relative to the confirmation of the Signature Plan or any other matter in the Case (collectively, the “Waived Matters”), provided that the Waived Matters exclude those matters pertaining to approval of fee applications by Professionals employed by the OEC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, if any, nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as a finding or ruling by this Court or an admission by Signature or James McIntyre that the OEC has any right to appeal or move for (or otherwise seek) reconsideration, review, rehearing, certiorari of, or relief from this Court with respect to any of the Waived Matters.

(a) Commencing in the third quarter of 2010 and continuing until the Reorganized Debtor has become current in its SEC reporting requirements, the Reorganized Debtor shall hold a quarterly investor conference call in accordance with common practices of public companies, the content and conduct of which shall be subject to management’s discretion.

(b) The Reorganized Debtor shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to call a shareholders meeting once all conditions to calling such a meeting have been satisfied, including, without limitation, the Reorganized Debtor becoming current in its SEC reporting requirements.

(c) The Reorganized Debtor shall not effect a reverse stock split in the Reorganized Debtor’s common stock within the first 18 months following the Effective Date, unless such stock split is directly tied to its becoming listed on a national exchange.

(d) Signature shall recommend to the compensation committee of the Reorganized Debtor’s Board of Directors a two year compensation package consisting of a $6,000-$9,000 cash per quarter base director fee and the remainder in equity compensation, such as 75,000-

100,000 stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options or other forms of equity compensation of similar value per director vesting ratably over the two year period.

(e) The Reorganized Debtor shall disseminate 8-K reports regarding post Effective Date material developments affecting the Reorganized Debtor, including, but not limited to:

	•		Events that trigger accelerations or increase amounts due with respect to financial obligations;

	•		Material impairment of assets;

	•		Material modification to the rights of security holders; and

	•		Any other disclosure that would be required under Regulation FD.

29. This Order shall be effective upon its entry on the Court’s docket, and the stay imposed by Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e) shall not apply.

30. The Court reserves jurisdiction to enter appropriate orders in aid of implementation of the Signature Plan pursuant to section 1142.

31. Prior to the Effective Date, Signature is authorized to make non-material technical modifications to the Signature Plan without further approval or order of this Court after notice to the Debtor, the Creditors Committee and the Equity Committee with the opportunity for such noticed parties to be heard. After the Effective Date, Signature is authorized to make non-material technical modifications to the Signature Plan without further approval or order of this Court.

32. Except as governed by the Signature Plan, on and after the Effective Date the Reorganized Debtor is authorized to make all settlements and dispositions of property without further approval or order of this Court.

33. Once the Estate has been fully administered as referred to in Bankruptcy Rule 3022, the Reorganized Debtor shall file a motion with this Court to obtain a final decree to close the Case.

34. The Reorganized Debtor shall mail notice of entry of this Order and of the Effective Date to all creditors of record and all shareholders of record as of the date of entry of this Order.

35. Any and all objections to the Signature Plan or confirmation of the Signature Plan not previously withdrawn, settled or stricken are overruled by this Order.

36. The Court reserves jurisdiction to enter appropriate orders in aid of implementation of the Signature Plan pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 1142. The Court may properly retain jurisdiction over the matters set forth in Section IV.K of the Signature Plan.

37. In accordance with Local Bankruptcy Rule 3020-1(b), the Reorganized Debtor shall file a status report on or before November 4, 2010 explaining what progress has been made toward consummation of the Plan.
