Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 3 of 17
 
B.           The Court has jurisdiction over the Motion and the transactions contemplated by the Bid Procedures Order (the "Transactions") pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334, and this matter is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2)(A) and (N). Venue of these cases and the Motion in this district is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.
 
C.           The statutory predicates for the relief sought in the Motion are sections 105, 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 6004, 6006, and 9014.
 
D.           On September 9, 2009, the Court entered the Bid Procedures Order and the Bid Procedures Order has become a final and non-appealable Order. Due, proper, timely, adequate, and sufficient notice of the bid procedures set forth in the Bid Procedures Order (the "Bid Procedures") has been given in accordance with the provisions of sections 102(1) and 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rules 2002 and 6004. No other or further notice of the Bid Procedures is or shall be required.
 
E.           The Debtors and their professionals complied in all respects with the Bid Procedures Order. At the conclusion of the Auction, the Victory Park Credit Bid was determined to be the highest and best bid for the Assets.
 
F.           As evidenced by the certificates of service previously filed with the Court, (i) proper, timely, adequate, and sufficient notice of the Motion, the Sale Hearing, the sale of the Assets, the terms and conditions of the Victory Park Credit Bid, and all of the other Transactions has been provided in accordance with sections 102(1), 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2002, 6004, and 9014, and the local rules of this Court, (ii) such notice was good, sufficient, and appropriate under the particular circumstances, and (iii) except as otherwise set forth in this Order, no other or further notice of the Motion, the Sale Hearing and the Sale is or shall be required.

Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 4 of 17
 
G.           As demonstrated by (i) evidence proffered or adduced at the Sale Hearing, and (ii) the representations of counsel made on the record at the Sale Hearing, the Debtors and their professionals have marketed the Assets and conducted the sale process with respect thereto in compliance with the Bid Procedures and the Bid Procedures Order.
 
H.           Through marketing efforts and a competitive sale process, including (i) the extensive marketing of the Assets prior to the entry of the Bid Procedures Order, and (ii) seeking competing offers for the Assets through notice of the Motion and pursuant to the Bid Procedures set forth in the Bid Procedures Order, the Debtors and their professionals afforded interested parties a full, fair, and reasonable opportunity to make an offer to purchase the Assets.
 
I.           The Debtors (i) have full corporate power and authority to transfer the Assets and to execute any documents required as part of the Sale (the "Sale Documents"), and the Sale has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Debtors, (ii) have all of the corporate power and authority necessary to consummate the Transactions, (iii) have taken all corporate action necessary to authorize and approve the Sale, the Sale Documents and the consummation by the Debtors of the Transactions contemplated thereby, and (iv) no consents or approvals are required for the Debtors to consummate the Transactions.
 
J.           The Debtors have demonstrated and proven to the satisfaction of this Court good, sufficient, and sound business purposes and justifications for the Sale of the Assets and consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Victory Park Credit Bid and this Order, pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Consummation of the Transactions constitutes the exercise by the Debtors of sound business judgment and such acts are in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors. The business reasons justifying the Sale of the Assets include, but are not limited to, the facts that (a) the Victory Park Credit Bid

 
4

 

Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 5 of 17
 
constitutes the highest and best offer for the Assets; (b) the Sale and the Closing of the Transactions will present the best opportunity to realize the value of the Assets; and (c) the consideration provided by Victory Park for the purchase of the Assets exceeds what the Debtors would be able to realize in a separate liquidation of the Assets.
 
K.           The Sale must be approved and consummated promptly because there is a significant risk that the value of the Assets would deteriorate before the effective date of a confirmed plan of reorganization in the Debtors' cases.
 
L.           The Sale and the Transactions contemplated by the Sale were negotiated and have been and are undertaken by the Debtors and Victory Park at arm's length, without collusion or fraud, and in good faith within the meaning of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing, the Debtors and Victory Park are entitled to the protections of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. Neither the Debtors nor Victory Park have engaged in any conduct that would cause or permit the Sale or any other Sale Document to be avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Victory Park has not otherwise violated section 363(n) by any action or inaction, and the Transactions do not violate the provisions of section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
M.           The aggregate consideration provided by Victory Park for the Assets (i) is fair and reasonable, (ii) is the highest or best offer for the Assets, and (iii) will provide a greater recovery for the Debtors' creditors than would be provided by any other practical, available alternative. The terms and conditions of the Sale are fair and reasonable. Therefore, the Sale is in the best interests of the Debtors and their estates, creditors, and other parties in interest and is an exercise of their sound business judgment. In addition, the relief requested in the Motion (including, without limitation, the approval of the Sale) is a necessary and appropriate step toward enabling

Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 6 of 17
 
the Debtors to successfully conclude these Chapter 11 cases and is otherwise in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors, their estates, and all other parties in interest in these cases.
 
N.                A reasonable opportunity to object or be heard regarding the relief requested in the Motion has been afforded to all interested persons and entities.
 
O.                 The transfer of the Assets to Victory Park will be a legal, valid, and effective transfer of the Assets and, except as otherwise set forth in the Motion, will vest Victory Park with all right, title, and interest of the Debtors in and to the Assets entirely free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims and interests of any kind or nature whatsoever, including (but not limited to) (i) liens and claims that purport to give to any party a right or option to effect any forfeiture, modification, right of first refusal, or termination of the Debtors' or Victory Park's interest in the Assets, or any similar rights, (ii) liens and claims relating to taxes arising under, out of, in connection with, or in any way relating to the operation of the Assets prior to the closing, and (iii) (A) all mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, conditional sale or other title retention agreements. pledges, liens, judgments, demands, encumbrances, rights of first refusal, or charges of any kind or nature, including, but not limited to, any restriction on the use, transfer, receipt of income or other exercise of any attributes of ownership, and (B) all debts arising in any way in connection with any agreements, acts, or failures to act, of the Debtors or any of the Debtors' predecessors or affiliates, claims, obligations, liabilities, demands, guaranties, options, rights, contractual or other commitments, restrictions, interests, and matters of any kind and nature, whether known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, whether arising prior to or subsequent to the commencement of these cases, and whether imposed by agreement, understanding, law, equity or otherwise, including (but not limited to) claims otherwise arising under doctrines of successor liability (collectively, "Interests").

Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 7 of 17
 
P.           Victory Park would not have entered into the Sale and would not consummate the Transactions contemplated thereby, thus adversely affecting the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors, if the Sale of the Assets to Victory Park was not entirely free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever, or if Victory Park would, or in the future could. be liable for any of the Interests.
 
Q.           The Debtors may sell the Assets entirely free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever because, in each case, one or more of the standards set forth in section 363(f)(1)-(5) of the Bankruptcy Code has been satisfied. Specifically, each entity with a security interest in any of the Assets has consented to their sale, is deemed to have consented to their sale, or could be compelled in a legal or equitable proceeding to accept a money satisfaction of such interest, or the Sale of the Assets otherwise satisfies the requirements of section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. To that end, those nondebtor parties with Interests in the Assets who did not object, or who withdrew their objections, to the Sale or the Motion are deemed to have consented to such sale pursuant to sections 363(f)(2) and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
R.           Approval of the Victory Park Credit Bid and consummation of the Sale at this time are in the best interests of the Debtors, their creditors, their estates, and other parties in interest.
 
S.           Time is of the essence in closing the Transactions, and the Debtors and Victory Park intend to close the sale of the Assets and the other Transactions as soon as possible.
 
For all of the foregoing and after due deliberation, the Court ORDERS, ADJUDGES, AND DECREES THAT:
 
General Provisions

3.           As represented at the Sale Hearing, Victory Park is not seeking to have the Debtors assume and assign any non-residential real property leases and the Debtors will be filing an emergency motion to reject all non-residential real property leases in order to avoid the incurrence of additional administrative rent. As such, the Sale excludes the Debtors' interest in all of its non-residential real property leases, including but not limited to the leases with 70 Lake Drive, LLC, CP 400 Royal Palm Way, LLC, Ninety Fourth Street Associates, LLP and Shirley B.

Case 09-23658-EPK Doc 139 Filed 09/24/09 Page 13 of 17
 
(collectively the "Carveouts" ) constitute carveouts and concessions from Victory Park's collateral which shall not be subject to any lien or claim of any other class of administrative, secured or unsecured claims (whether priority or non-priority) and shall not constitute property of the Debtors' bankruptcy estates.

26.           This Court retains jurisdiction to enforce and implement the terms and provisions of the Sale, all amendments thereto, any waivers and consents thereunder, and of each of the agreements executed in connection therewith in all respects, including, but not limited to, retaining jurisdiction to (a) subject to the terms and conditions of the Sale, compel delivery of the Assets to Victory Park or performance of other obligations of the Debtors under the Sale, (b) resolve any disputes arising under or related to the Sale, except as otherwise provided therein, (d) interpret, implement, and enforce the provisions of this Order, and (e) protect Victory Park against any Interests in the Assets, of any kind or nature whatsoever, provided, however, that in the event the Court abstains from exercising or declines to exercise such jurisdiction or is without jurisdiction with respect to the Sale or this Order, such abstention, refusal, or lack of jurisdiction shall have no effect upon, and shall not control. prohibit. or limit the exercise of jurisdiction of any other court having competent jurisdiction with respect to any such matter.
 
27.           The Transactions contemplated by the Sale are undertaken by Victory Park in good faith, as that term is used in section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, and accordingly, the reversal or modification on appeal of the authorization provided herein to consummate the Sale shall not affect the validity of the Sale of the Assets to Victory Park, unless such authorization is duly stayed pending such appeal. Victory Park is a purchaser in good faith of the Assets and is entitled to all of the protections afforded by section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. Victory Park has not violated section 363(n) by any action or inaction, and the Transactions do not violate the provisions of section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
28.           The terms and provisions of the Sale and this Order shall be binding in all respects upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors; Victory Park, and its respective affiliates, successors, and assigns; and any affected third parties,

29.           The failure specifically to include any particular provisions of the Sale in this Order shall not diminish or impair the effectiveness of such provisions, it being the intent of the Court that the Sale be authorized and approved in its entirety.
