Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 11 of 35

P.Section 1129(a)(3). The Plan has been proposed by the Debtor in good faith and in the belief that the proposed reorganization and establishment of the Distribution Trust will maximize value for the Debtor’s creditors. The Plan accomplishes the goals promoted by section 1129(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code by enabling the Debtor to reorganize as a going concern and enabling the Distribution Trustee to make distributions to creditors on a fair and equitable basis, in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. As set forth in the Confirmation Declaration, the Plan is the direct result of extensive good faith, arm’s length negotiations between the Debtor and the Plan Sponsor and thereby reflects significant benefit to the Debtor’s estate. The Plan has been proposed with the legitimate and honest purpose of implementing a reorganization of the Debtor and maximizing the value of the Estate to achieve the best interests of the Debtor’s creditors. In so finding, the Court has considered the totality of the circumstances in this Chapter 11 Case. The unimpaired plan treatment of all holders of Claims and Equity Interests in Classes 1, 2, 3 and 4 further demonstrates that the Plan was proposed in good faith. Finally, as described in greater detail below, the Plan’s indemnification, exculpation, release, and injunction provisions are warranted, necessary, and appropriate, and are supported by sufficient consent and consideration under the circumstances of the Chapter 11 Case as a whole and are consistent with sections 105, 1123(b)(6), and 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law in this Circuit.

Q.Section 1129(a)(4). No payment for services or costs and expenses in connection with this Chapter 11 Case, or in connection with the Plan and incident to the Chapter 11 Case, has been or will be made by the Debtor other than payments that have been authorized by an order of the Court, including without limitation by the confirmation of the Plan by this Confirmation Order. Pursuant to section 2.2 of the Plan, such Professionals’ applications for allowance of final compensation and

11



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 12 of 35

reimbursement of expenses must be filed and served no later than forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date of the Plan.

R.Section 1129(a)(5). The identity and affiliations of the individuals that will serve as directors and officers of the Reorganized Debtor have been disclosed in the Plan Supplement, in satisfaction of section 1129(a)(5)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. Further, in accordance with section 1129(a)(5)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code, the appointment of the directors and officers to such offices is consistent with the interests of creditors and with public policy inasmuch as no objection to their appointment was received.

S.Moreover, the identity of the Distribution Trustee was disclosed in the Disclosure Statement, in satisfaction of section 1129(a)(5)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. Further, in accordance with section 1129(a)(5)(A)(ii) of the Bankruptcy Code, the appointment of the Distribution Trustee is consistent with the interests of creditors and with public policy inasmuch as no objection to the proposed Distribution Trustee was received. Further, in accordance with section 1129(a)(5)(B), the Debtor has disclosed that no insiders will be employed or retained by the Reorganized Debtor.

T.Section 1129(a)(6). The Plan does not provide for any changes in rates that require regulatory approval of any governmental agency. As such, section 1129(a)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable in this Chapter 11 Case.

U.Section 1129(a)(7). Each holder of an impaired Claim or Interest that is deemed not to have accepted the Plan will, on account of such Claim or Interest, receive or retain property under the Plan having a value, as of the Effective Date, that is not less than the amount that such holder would receive or retain if the Debtor was liquidated under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code on

12



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 13 of 35

the Effective Date. See Disclosure Statement at Art. VI.C. The Debtor has demonstrated that the Plan is in the best interests of its creditors.

V.Section 1129(a)(8). Four (4) of the five (5) Classes under the Plan are unimpaired under and deemed to have accepted the Plan. See Plan at Article III. Holders of Interests in Class 5 are deemed to reject. Nevertheless, with respect to Class 5, the Plan is confirmable because it satisfies section 1129(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such non-accepting Class of Interests.

W.Section 1129(a)(9). The Plan provides treatment for Allowed Administrative Claims and Allowed Priority Tax Claims that is consistent with the requirements of section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code. Unless otherwise agreed to, the holder of each Allowed Administrative Claim and Allowed Priority Tax Claim will receive full payment in Cash on account of such Claim within the prompt timeframe specified in the Plan with respect to such Claims. See Plan at Article II.

X.Section 1129(a)(10). No Class of Claims is impaired under the Plan. As such, section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable in this Chapter 11 Case.

Y.Section 1129(a)(11). As evidenced by the Confirmation Declaration, together with any additional evidence admitted at the Combined Hearing, the Plan is feasible and complies with section 1129(a)(11) of the Bankruptcy Code. Furthermore, the Consideration will be funded on the Effective Date. Accordingly, no distributions to creditors under the Plan are dependent on any metrics related to the Reorganized Debtor. See Plan at § 5.4(e).

Z.Section 1129(a)(12). The Plan provides the Debtor will pay all fees required under 28 U.S.C. § 1930(a) as of the Effective Date. See Plan at § 2.3. Further, the Plan provides for payment of such fees after the Effective Date. See Plan at § 12.15.

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 14 of 35

AA.Section 1129(a)(13). The Debtor does not owe retiree benefits (as that term is defined under section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code). Thus, section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code is inapplicable to the Plan.

BB.Sections 1129(a)(14)-(16). Sections 1129(a)(14)-(16) of the Bankruptcy Code apply to individuals or nonprofit entities and are not applicable to the Chapter 11 Case.

CC.Section 1129(b). The Plan does not “discriminate unfairly” with respect to Class 5, which is the only Class that is impaired under the Plan and has not accepted the Plan (Class 5 is deemed to reject). In addition, the Plan is “fair and equitable” under section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Class 5 because no holder of an interest that is junior to the Interests in Class 5 is receiving or retaining any property under the Plan on account of such interest.

DD.Section 1129(c). The Plan is the only plan of reorganization that has been filed in the Chapter 11 Case and it is the only plan that has been found to satisfy the requirements of subsections (a) and (b) of section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, the requirements of section 1129(c) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied.

EE.Section 1129(d). No party in interest, including but not limited to any governmental unit, has requested that the Court deny confirmation of the Plan on grounds that the principal purpose of the Plan is “the avoidance of taxes or the avoidance of the application of section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933,” and the principal purpose of the Plan is not such avoidance. Accordingly, the Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1129(d) of the Bankruptcy Code.

FF.Section 1129(e). Because the Debtor is not a “small business debtor” under section 101(51D) of the Bankruptcy Code, section 1129(e) of the Bankruptcy Code is not applicable to the Chapter 11 Case.

Means for Implementation of the Plan

GG.Implementation. The various means for implementation of the Plan, as set forth in Article V and other provisions of the Plan (collectively, the “Implementation Activities”), have been designed and proposed in good faith. The Implementation Activities are adequate and will promote the maximization of the value of the ultimate recoveries under the Plan in a fair and equitable manner in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. The Implementation Activities are not intended to hinder, delay, or defraud any entity to which the Debtor is indebted on the Effective Date. Pursuant to section 9.2 of the Plan, all remaining assets in the Estate – other than Distribution Trust Assets – will vest in the Reorganized Debtor as of the Effective Date. Pursuant to section 5.4(g) of the Plan, all property of the Debtor constituting the Distribution Trust Assets shall be conveyed and transferred by the Debtor to the Distribution Trust and administered by the Distribution Trustee.

HH.Securities Exempt from Registration. The undertakings and obligations of the Debtor pursuant to the Plan, including its undertakings and/or obligations to make distributions of securities including (i) the issuance of the New Equity to ESW on account of the ESW Equity Interest Treatment, and (ii) the issuance of Beneficial Interests in the Distribution Trust, shall in each case be exempt, pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, from Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 and from any and all federal, state, or local laws requiring the registration of the offer, sale or other distribution of such securities by the Debtor. On the Effective Date, none of the New Equity will be listed on a national securities exchange.

II.Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases. Pursuant to sections 365 and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, Article VII of the Plan provides for the assumption of all executory contracts and unexpired leases of the Debtor, subject to the terms of the Plan, including those certain agreements identified on the Schedule of Assumed Contracts

15



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 16 of 35

and Unexpired Leases [D.I. 125] (as supplemented, and as may be amended, the “Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Unexpired Leases”), other than those executory contracts and unexpired leases of the Debtor identified on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Unexpired Leases [D.I. 125], which restated “Exhibit B” to the Plan (as supplemented, and as may be amended, the “Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Unexpired Leases”), which shall be rejected. The determinations regarding the assumption or the rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases are based on the Plan Sponsor’s anticipated business plan and will aid in the implementation of the Plan, and are in the best interests of the Debtor, its Estate, and the holders of Claims and Interests and other parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Case. The Debtor has filed and adequately served (i) the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Unexpired Leases identifying the executory contracts and unexpired leases to be assumed pursuant to section 8.1 of the Plan and (ii) the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Unexpired Leases to be rejected pursuant to section 7.2 of the Plan.

JJ.No other party objected to the assumption or rejection of any executory contracts or unexpired leases pursuant the Plan.

KK.Injunctions, Releases, and Discharge. The Court has jurisdiction under sections 1334(a) and (b) of title 28 of the United States Code and sections 105, 524, and 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code to approve the provisions with respect to the releases, exculpation, and discharge/injunction set forth in Article X of the Plan. The releases set forth in Article X of the Plan represent a valid exercise of the Debtor’s business judgment and accordingly are appropriate under section 1123(b)(3)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code. The releases set forth in section 10.5 of the Plan are binding on all holders of Claims and Interests, provided that that the foregoing releases are granted only by Creditors and Interest Holders who are unimpaired and did not indicate an election to opt-

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 17 of 35

out of granting such release by making such election electronically on the Claims Agent’s website at https://dm.epiq11.com/broadvision; provided, further, that the release provided in this Section 10.5 shall not extend to any claims by any Governmental Unit with respect to criminal liability under applicable law, willful misconduct or bad faith under applicable law, or ultra vires acts under applicable law. The exculpation provisions set forth in sections 10.3 of the Plan are appropriately tailored to protect the exculpated parties from inappropriate litigation and does not relieve any party of liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct. The released parties pursuant to section 10.4 have contributed substantial value to the Debtor and the formulation of the Plan. Such released parties’ efforts in negotiating and ultimately formulating the Plan enabled the Debtor to file the Plan. The discharge and injunction set forth in sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Plan comply with section 524(e) of the Bankruptcy Code and are important to the overall objectives of the Plan to finally resolve all claims against the Debtor in the Chapter 11 Case. Based upon the record of the Chapter 11 Case and the evidence admitted at or prior to the Combined Hearing, this Court finds that the releases, discharges, injunctions, and exculpations set forth in Article X of the Plan are consistent with the Bankruptcy Code and applicable law.

LL.Reinstatement of Intercompany Claims. The intercompany Claims filed by the Debtor’s
non-Debtor subsidiaries, identified on the Debtor’s Claims Register by Claim No. 10010 (BroadVision Professional Services SA), Claim No. 10012 (Interleaf GmbH), Claim No. 10013 (BroadVision France S.A.), Claim No. 10014 (BroadVision (UK) Ltd.), Claim No. 10015 (BroadVision Japan K.K.), Claim No. 10017 (BroadVision Deutschland GmbH), Claim No. 10018 (BroadVision Italia Srl), Claim No. 10020 (BroadVision Iberica SA), Claim No. 10021 (Vmoso, Inc.), Claim No. 10022 (BroadVision On Demand Co. Ltd.), Claim No. 10023 (BroadVision (Barbados) Limited), Claim No. 10024 (BroadVision (Delaware) LLC), Claim No. 10025

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135 Filed 05/15/20 Page 18 of 35

(Interleaf UK Limited), and Claim No. 10026 (BroadVision Systems India Pvt Ltd.) (collectively, the “Intercompany Claims”), which may be otherwise deemed as Allowed Claim under Class 3 – General Unsecured Claims of the Plan, shall not be entitled to receive a distribution of Available Cash under the Plan, but rather shall be reinstated as of the Effective Date.

MM. Other Findings. To permit the Distribution Trustee to commence his duties as quickly as practicable, to promote prompt distributions under the Plan and Distribution Trust Agreement for the benefit of creditors and because a significant number of Implementation Activities are capable of being undertaken in short order, good cause exists to support the waiver of the stay imposed by Bankruptcy Rule 3020(e).

22



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-1 Filed 05/15/20 Page 29 of 53

Reorganized Debtor. The New Equity shall be free and clear of all Liens, Claims, interests, and encumbrances of any kind, except as otherwise provided in the Plan. All the shares of the New Equity issued pursuant to the Plan shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assignable.

The Reorganized Debtor may take all necessary actions, if applicable, after the Effective Date to suspend any requirement to (i) be a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act, and (ii) file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other entity or party. On or promptly after the Effective Date, the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor may file with The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC a Form 25 for the purpose of terminating the listing of the Debtor Common Stock on Nasdaq and with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Form 15 for the purpose of terminating the registration of the Debtor Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act and take any other in connection therewith.

(h)Distributions from Cash-on-Hand and IP Addresses. Prior to making Distributions to pay holders of Allowed Equity Interests from the Cash-on-Hand or proceeds generated from the sale of the IP Addresses after the Effective Date, such funds shall first be used to pay, to the extent not already paid by the Debtor, all Case-Related Claims and Expenses and repayment of amounts, if any, incurred by the Plan Sponsor in connection with funding such Case-Related Claims and Expenses.

5.5Tax Treatment of the Distribution Trust

The Distribution Trust established under the Plan is established for the purpose of making Distributions to holders of Allowed Claims and Interests from the Distribution Trust Assets transferred to the Distribution Trust (or from the proceeds of such Distribution Trust Assets, as applicable) and performing related and incidental functions referenced in the Distribution Trust Agreement. The Distribution Trust shall have no objective of continuing or engaging in any trade

23



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-1 Filed 05/15/20 Page 30 of 53

or business except to the extent reasonably necessary to, and consistent with, the liquidating purpose of the trust. The purpose of the Distribution Trust is to provide a mechanism for the liquidation of the Distribution Trust Assets, and to distribute the Consideration and the proceeds of the liquidation, net of all claims, expenses, charges, liabilities, and obligations of the Distribution Trust, to the Beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of the Plan. No business activities will be conducted by the Distribution Trust other than those associated with or related to the liquidation of the Distribution Trust Assets. It is intended that the Distribution Trust be classified for federal income tax purposes as a “liquidating trust” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(d). All parties and Beneficiaries shall treat the transfers in trust described herein as transfers to the Beneficiaries for all purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (including Sections 61(a)(12), 483, 1001, 1012, and 1274 thereof). All the parties and Beneficiaries shall treat the transfers in trust as if all the transferred assets, including all the Distribution Trust Assets, had been first transferred to the Beneficiaries and then transferred by the Beneficiaries to the Distribution Trust. The Beneficiaries shall be treated for all purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as the grantors of the Distribution Trust and the owners of the Distribution Trust. The Distribution Trustee shall file returns for the Distribution Trust as a grantor trust pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.671-4(a) or (b). All parties, including the Beneficiaries and the Distribution Trustee, shall value the Distribution Trust Assets consistently, and such valuations shall be used for all federal income tax purposes. Beneficiaries may wish to consult with a tax professional regarding the tax consequences of holding a Beneficial Interest in or receiving a Distribution from the Distribution Trust.

5.6Preservation of Rights of Action

Unless any Rights of Action against a Person are expressly waived, relinquished, exculpated, released, compromised, transferred or settled in the Plan or by a Final Order, in accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtor shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue any and all Rights of Action, and the Reorganized Debtor’s rights to commence, prosecute or settle such Rights of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding Section 6.1 of the Plan, the Reorganized Debtor shall retain and shall have the exclusive right to enforce any and all of the Debtor’s Rights of Action including, without limitation, those arising from or related to (a) Intellectual Property and (b) claims and causes of action under chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, claims for accounts receivable and claims for turnover of Cash of the Debtor being held in escrow or on deposit by third parties), and shall be the sole beneficiary of any contested matters, claims objections, proceedings or similar actions in connection therewith.

The Reorganized Debtor shall provide commercially reasonable assistance and cooperation to the Distribution Trustee, at the Distribution Trustee’s cost, in connection with the Distribution Trustee’s prosecution of objections to Claims, including, without limitation, reasonable access to the books and records of the Debtor or the Reorganized Debtor (as the case may be) and other information reasonably requested by the Distribution Trustee to enable the Distribution Trustee to perform its obligations under the Distribution Trust Agreement; provided that the Distribution Trustee will keep all such information confidential and will not disclose any information provided by the Reorganized Debtor without express written consent of the Reorganized Debtor. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no provision by the Reorganized Debtor of any privileged or confidential information to the Distribution Trustee shall result in the waiver of any privilege, confidentiality or other protections held by the Reorganized Debtor. The Distribution Trustee will cooperate fully with the Reorganized Debtor in preserving privilege and confidentiality of any information provided by the Reorganized Debtor to the Distribution Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall impose upon or require the Reorganized Debtor to preserve or maintain the Debtor’s books and records for any purpose beyond twelve (12) months following the Effective Date unless the Distribution Trustee notifies the Reorganized Debtor in writing before that time that the Distribution Trustee has no further need to have access to such books and records, in which case the Distribution Trust shall bear the costs of such preservation and/or maintenance.

6.2Deadline for Objecting to Claims

Objections to Claims must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court, and a copy of the objection must be served on the subject Creditor before the expiration of the Claim Objection Deadline (unless such period is further extended by subsequent orders of the Bankruptcy Court); otherwise such Claims shall be deemed Allowed in accordance with section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code. The objection shall notify the Creditor of the deadline for responding to such objection.

6.3Deadline for Responding to Claim Objections

No later than seven (7) days prior to a hearing scheduled with respect to an objection to any Claim, or such other date as is indicated on such objection or the accompanying notice thereof, the Creditor whose Claim was objected to must file a written response to the objection with the Bankruptcy Court and serve a copy on the Distribution Trustee. Failure to file a written response within the applicable deadline may cause the Bankruptcy Court to enter a default judgment against the non-responding Creditor or otherwise grant the relief requested in the claim objection.

If a Creditor has not filed a proof of claim or sent the Distribution Trustee a written notice of payment address, then the Distribution(s) for such Creditor will be mailed to the address identified in the Schedules of Assets and Liabilities. The Distribution Trustee shall distribute any Cash by wire, check, or such other method as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. Before receiving any Distributions, all Creditors, at the request of the Distribution Trustee, must provide written notification of their respective Federal Tax Identification Numbers or Social Security Numbers to the Distribution Trustee; otherwise, the Distribution Trustee may suspend Distributions to any Creditors who have not provided their Federal Tax Identification Numbers or Social Security Numbers.

(d)Undeliverable Distributions. If a Distribution made from Available Cash on account of an Allowed Claim to any Creditor is returned as undeliverable, the Distribution Trustee shall use reasonable efforts to determine the then current address for such Creditor. If the Distribution Trustee cannot determine, or is not notified of, a then current address for such Creditor within six (6) months after the Effective Date, the Distribution reserved for such Creditor shall be deemed an unclaimed Distribution, and Section 6.5(e) of the Plan shall be applicable thereto.

(e)Unclaimed Distributions. If the current address for a Creditor entitled to a Distribution from Available Cash on account of an Allowed Claim under the Plan has not been determined or such Creditor has otherwise not been located within six (6) months after the Effective Date or a Creditor has not submitted a valid Federal Tax Identification Number or Social Security Number to the Distribution Trustee within three (3) months after the Distribution Trustee made a request therefor, then in each case such Creditor shall forfeit the Distribution on the Claim and any amounts to which the Creditor would have otherwise been entitled shall become Available

ARTICLE VII

EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

7.1Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

On the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in any contract, instrument, release, indenture, or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan, including without limitation pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, all Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases shall be deemed assumed without the need for any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court as of the Effective Date under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, further, that, upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the RSA will terminate in accordance with its terms.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumption or assumption and assignment, as applicable, of such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases as set forth in the Plan, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Unless otherwise indicated, the assumption or assumption and assignment of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to the Plan are effective as of the Effective Date. Each Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed pursuant to the Plan or a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court but not assigned to a third party before the Effective Date shall re-vest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable contracting Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as such terms may have been modified in the Plan or any Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing and providing for its assumption under applicable federal law.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent that any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to the Plan restricts or prevents, purports to restrict or prevent, or is breached or deemed breached by the assumption or assumption and assignment of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including any “change of control” provision), such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights with respect thereto.

7.2Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

All Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases identified on the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Unexpired Leases, to be attached to the Plan as Exhibit B (or rejected by the Debtor previously), shall be deemed rejected on the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute approval of such rejections under sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Notwithstanding the rejection of an Executory Contract, the terms of any confidentiality agreement or covenant not to compete contained therein shall survive and remain in full force and effect for the term thereof.

7.3Cure of Defaults for Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases

Any monetary defaults under each Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease to be assumed pursuant to the Plan shall be satisfied, pursuant to section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, by payment of the default amount in Cash from the Consideration on or about the Effective Date, subject to the limitation described below, or on such other terms as the parties to such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases may otherwise agree.

Assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise and payment of the applicable cure amount shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Claims or defaults, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or other bankruptcy-related defaults, arising under any assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease at any time prior to the effective date of assumption. Any proof of claim filed with respect to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that is assumed shall be deemed disallowed and expunged, without further notice to or action, order or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

7.4Contracts and Leases Entered Into After the Petition Date

Contracts and leases entered into after the Petition Date, including any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed by the Debtor, will be performed by the Debtor or Reorganized Debtor liable thereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Accordingly, unless specifically rejected pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, such contracts and leases (including any assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases) will survive and remain unaffected by entry of the Confirmation Order. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reorganized Debtor is not assuming, and will not be liable for, any of contracts with the Debtor’s professionals or any Professional Compensation Claims in connection therewith.

7.5Procedures Related to Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired

Leases

(a)Establishment of Cure Claim Amounts

The Cure Amounts associated with the assumption of the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof are specified in the Schedule of Assumed Contracts and Unexpired Leases attached to the Plan as Exhibit A. The Debtor shall serve counterparties to the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases with a Cure Notice. The Debtor and the Plan Sponsor reserve the right to amend or supplement the Cure Notice.

29



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-1 Filed 05/15/20 Page 36 of 53

Any objection to Cure Notice including (i) a Cure Objection or (ii) an Adequate Assurance Objection to be provided by the Plan Sponsor on behalf of the Reorganized Debtor must be in writing, filed with the Bankruptcy Court, and served upon (a) the Debtor, (b) counsel to the Debtor, (c) counsel to the Plan Sponsor, and (d) the U.S. Trustee, by no later than the Cure Amount Objection Deadline (i.e., May 7, 2020). Any such Cure Objection or Adequate Assurance Objection must set forth the specific default alleged under the applicable Executory Contract and claim a specific monetary amount that differs from the applicable Cure Amount, if any, and/or further information required of the Reorganized Debtor with respect to adequate assurance of future performance.

If no Objection to the Cure Amount with respect to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease is received by the Objection Deadline, then the assumption of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall be authorized pursuant to sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code and the applicable Cure Amount, if any, shall be binding upon the non-Debtor counterparty to such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease for all purposes and shall constitute a final determination of the Cure Amount required to be paid to such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease counterparty, and such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease counterparty shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to, contest, condition, or otherwise restrict the assumption of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including, without limitation, from asserting any additional cure or other amounts with respect to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease arising prior to such assumption). Furthermore, upon the assumption of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the Reorganized Debtor shall enjoy all of the Debtor’s rights and benefits thereunder without the necessity of obtaining any party’s written consent to the Debtor’s assumption of such rights and benefits.

(b)Objection to Disputed Cure Amounts

The Plan Sponsor shall have the right to examine any Objection to Cure Amount filed by any party, and shall have the right to object to and contest the Disputed Cure Amount asserted therein.

If an objection to a Disputed Cure Amount has not been resolved by the Bankruptcy Court or agreement of the parties by the Effective Date, the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease related to such Disputed Cure Amount shall be deemed assumed by the Reorganized Debtor effective on the Effective Date; provided, however, the Reorganized Debtor may revoke an assumption of any such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease within ten (10) days after entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court adjudicating the objection to the Disputed Cure Amount related to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease by filing a notice of such revocation with the Bankruptcy Court and serving a copy on the party(ies) whose Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease is rejected. Any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease identified in a revocation notice shall be deemed rejected retroactively to the Effective Date.

(c)Payment of Cure Amounts

On or about the Effective Date, the Distribution Trustee shall pay all Cure Amounts related to Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases listed on the Cure Notice, other than Disputed Cure Amounts from out of Available Cash.

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-1 Filed 05/15/20 Page 37 of 53

Subject to Section 7.5(b) hereof, the Distribution Trustee shall pay all Cure Amounts that are subject to an objection on the later of (i) within ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Date or (ii) within ten (10) Business Days after entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court resolving the objection or approving an agreement between the parties concerning the Cure Amount.

(d)No Admission of Liability

Neither the inclusion nor exclusion of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease by the Debtor and the Plan Sponsor on the Cure Notice, nor anything contained in the Plan, shall constitute an admission by the Debtor or the Plan Sponsor that any such contract or unexpired lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that the Debtor has any liability thereunder.

(e)Reservation of Rights

Nothing in the Plan shall waive, excuse, limit, diminish, or otherwise alter any of the defenses, claims, causes of action, or other rights of the Debtor under any executory or non-executory contract or any unexpired or expired lease, nor shall any provision of the Plan increase, augment, or add to any of the duties, obligations, responsibilities, or liabilities of the Debtor under any such contract or lease.

7.6Rejection Claim

Each Claim resulting from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court no later than the Rejection Claim Bar Date; provided, however, any party whose Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease is rejected pursuant to a revocation notice, pursuant to Section 7.5(b) hereof, may file a rejection damage Claim arising out of such rejection within thirty (30) days after the filing of the revocation notice with the Bankruptcy Court. Any Claim resulting from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease not filed by the applicable deadline shall be discharged and forever barred, and shall not be entitled to any Distributions under the Plan. The Distribution Trustee shall have the right to object to any rejection damage Claim.

Notwithstanding the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, the terms of any confidentiality agreement or covenant not to compete contained therein shall survive and remain in full force and effect for the term thereof.

7.7Indemnification Obligations

On and as of the Effective Date, the Indemnification Provisions will be assumed with respect to any claims or Causes of Action whether direct or derivative, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed, or contingent, disputed or undisputed, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, asserted or unasserted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Reorganized Debtor shall not be required to indemnify the Debtor’s managers, directors, officers, or employees for any claims or Causes of Action for which indemnification is barred under applicable law, the Debtor’s organizational documents, or applicable agreements governing the Debtor’s indemnification obligations.

31



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-1 Filed 05/15/20 Page 38 of 53

Except with respect to the Indemnification Provisions, any other obligation or agreement of the Debtor to indemnify, reimburse, or limit the liability of any Person, including any contract or lease counterparty, relating to any acts or omissions occurring before the Effective Date, whether arising pursuant to charter, bylaws, contract or applicable state law, shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as, a General Unsecured Claim and/or Executory Contract and shall be deemed to be rejected, canceled, and discharged pursuant to the Plan as of the Effective Date and any and all Claims resulting from such obligations are disallowed under section 502(e) of the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable grounds, including section 502(d), or if any court of applicable jurisdiction rules to the contrary, such Claim shall be estimated pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code in the amount of $0 or such other amount as the Bankruptcy Court shall determine.

7.8Employee Compensation and Benefits

Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the RSA, all Compensation and Benefits Programs shall be treated as Executory Contracts under the Plan and deemed assumed on the Effective Date pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, that all provisions in any agreement or Compensation and Benefits Program relating to equity-based awards, including any termination-related provisions with respect to equity based awards, will be deemed rejected and terminated on the Effective Date; provided further that any agreement or Compensation and Benefits Program related to Dr. Pehong Chen shall be replaced and superceded by the Transition Services Agreement. The Reorganized Debtor shall honor, in the ordinary course of business, Claims of employees employed as of the Effective Date for accrued vacation time arising prior to the Petition Date and not otherwise paid pursuant to a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Any assumption or rejection of an agreement or Compensation and Benefits Program pursuant to the terms herein shall not be deemed to trigger any applicable change of control, immediate vesting, termination, or similar provisions therein. No counterparty shall have rights under a Compensation and Benefits Program assumed pursuant to the Plan other than those applicable immediately prior to such assumption.

7.9Director and Officer’s Insurance Policies

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtor shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Debtor’s D&O Liability Insurance Policies pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code effective as of the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Reorganized Debtor’s foregoing assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, confirmation of the Plan shall not discharge, impair, or otherwise modify any indemnity obligations assumed by the foregoing assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, and each such indemnity obligation will be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that has been assumed by the Debtors under the Plan as to which no Proof of Claim need be filed.

7.10 Other Insurance Policies

On the Effective Date, each of the Debtor’s insurance policies in existence as of the Effective Date shall be reinstated and continued in accordance with their terms and, to the extent applicable, shall be deemed assumed by the Reorganized Debtor pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and Article VII of this Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall affect, impair, or prejudice the rights of the insurance carriers, the insureds, or the Reorganized Debtor under the insurance policies in any manner, and such insurance carriers, the insureds, and Reorganized Debtor shall retain all rights and defenses under such insurance policies. The insurance policies shall apply to and be enforceable by and against the insureds and the Reorganized Debtor in the same manner and according to the same terms and practices applicable to the Debtor, as existed prior to the Effective Date.

The foregoing release shall be effective as of the Effective Date without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, act or action under applicable law, regulation, order, or rule or the vote, consent, authorization or approval of any Person and the Confirmation Order will permanently enjoin the commencement or prosecution by any person, whether directly, derivatively or otherwise, of any claims, obligations, suits, judgments, damages, demands, debts, rights, causes of action, or liabilities released pursuant to this release.

In such event, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute an admission, waiver or release of any claims by or against the Debtor or any other person, or to prejudice in any manner the rights of the Debtor, the Debtor’s Estate, or any person in any further proceedings involving the Debtor.

12.7 [Reserved].

IN THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE

In re:

BROADVISION, INC.,1 

Debtor.

Chapter 11

Case No. 20-10701(CSS)



NOTICE OF (I) ENTRY OF ORDER CONFIRMING, AND OCCURRENCE OF
EFFECTIVE DATE OF, AMENDED CHAPTER 11 PLAN OF DEBTOR; AND (II)
CERTAIN RELEASES AND INJUNCTION THEREUNDER

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE OF THE FOLLOWING:

1.Confirmation of the Plan.

On May [ ], 2020, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) entered an order [D.I. [ ]] (the “Confirmation Order”) confirming the Amended Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code for BroadVision, Inc. dated April 3, 2020 [D.I. 57] (collectively with all exhibits and supplements and any modifications or other amendments thereto, the “Plan”) in the chapter 11 case of the above-captioned debtor (the “Debtor”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Notice have the meanings given to them in the Plan and the Confirmation Order.

2.Occurrence of the Effective Date; Distribution Trustee; Vesting of Assets.

Pursuant to section 12.2 of the Plan, the Plan became effective on May [29], 2020 (the “Effective Date”). As of the Effective Date, among other things, (a) the Debtor continues in existence as the Reorganized Debtor; (b) the Distribution Trustee was appointed with the power to exercise the rights, power, and authority of the Distribution Trust under applicable provisions of the Plan, Distribution Trust Agreement, and bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy law; and (c) except as otherwise provided in the Plan, all property of the Estate and the Debtor (other than the Distribution Trust Assets) became the property of, and vested in, the Reorganized Debtor free and clear of all Claims, Liens, charges, other encumbrances, and interests. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and Distribution Trust Agreement, all distributions to be made to creditors and equity holders under the Plan shall be made by the Distribution Trustee (or his or her designated agent).

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-2 Filed 05/15/20 Page 3 of 6

3.Resolution of Disputed Claims.

Except as otherwise provided in Article VI of the Plan, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court after notice and a hearing, and subject to section 502(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Reorganized Debtor and the Distribution Trustee on behalf of the Distribution Trust have the right to make, file, prosecute, settle, compromise, withdraw, or resolve objections to Claims. Further, the Distribution Trustee may settle, resolve, release, or compromise any Claims and objections to Claims on behalf of the Distribution Trust without need for notice or order of the Bankruptcy Court.

4.Indemnification; Releases; Exculpation; Injunction.

The indemnification provisions in Article VII and the exculpation, releases, and injunction provisions in Article X of the Plan are now in full force and effect.

5.Assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Not Rejected.

Except as otherwise provided (i) in the Plan; (ii) in the Schedule of Rejected Contracts and Unexpired Leases [D.I. 125]; (iii) in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document entered into in connection with the Plan; or (iv) in a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, as of the Effective Date, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtor assumed each executory contract and unexpired lease not previously assumed, assumed and assigned, or rejected during the Chapter 11 Case. For the avoidance of doubt, the Debtor, subject to the agreement of the Plan Sponsor, shall have the right to assume all executory contracts entered into by the Debtor postpetition prior to the Effective Date.

6.Bar Dates.

Administrative Bar Date. Unless previously filed or as otherwise governed by a bar date order or in another order of the Court or as set forth in the Plan with respect to Ordinary Course Liabilities, requests for payment of Administrative Claims must be filed with the Court and served on the parties identified in section 1.4 of the Plan by June 15, 2020, which is 30 days of the Combined Hearing (the “Administrative Claim Bar Date”). Holders of Administrative Claims that are required to file and serve a request for payment of such Administrative Claims and that do not file and serve such a request by the Administrative Claim Bar Date shall be forever barred from asserting such Administrative Claims against the Debtor, the Estate, or its property. Objections to any requests for payment of Administrative Claims must be asserted by the Claim Objection Deadline. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a governmental unit shall not be required to file and serve a request for payment of an Administrative Claim with respect to any administrative expense of the type described in section 503(b)(1)(B) or section 503(b)(1)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code as a condition to such amounts being an allowed administrative expense. Notice of the Administrative Claim Bar Date was previously provided to parties in interest, and nothing in this Notice is intended to extend the Administrative Claim Bar Date or recommence the occurrence of the Administrative Claim Bar Date.

Professional Compensation. Each Professional shall file an application for allowance of final compensation and reimbursement of expenses in the Chapter 11 Case, for the period through

2



 


 

Case 20-10701-CSS Doc 135-2 Filed 05/15/20 Page 4 of 6

the Effective Date, no later than July [ ], 2020, which is 45 days after the Effective Date. Objections to applications of professionals for compensation or reimbursement of expenses must be filed and served on the Reorganized Debtor, the U.S. Trustee, and the professionals to whose application the objections are addressed no later than 60 after the Effective Date, or the Bankruptcy Court may enter an order authorizing the fees without a hearing. Any professional fees and reimbursements or expenses incurred by the Reorganized Debtor subsequent to the Effective Date may be paid without application to the Bankruptcy Court.

Rejection Damages Bar Date. Claims arising out of the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease pursuant to section 7.6 of the Plan must be filed with the Court on or before June [ ], 2020, which is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, and served as set forth below in Section 9. Any such Claims not timely filed shall be forever barred from asserting such Claims against the Debtor, the Reorganized Debtor, the Estate, the Distribution Trust, or their respective property.

7.Retention of Jurisdiction by Bankruptcy Court.

Notwithstanding the entry of the Confirmation Order and the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court retained jurisdiction over the Chapter 11 Case after the Effective Date to the fullest extent legally permissible, including, without limitation, with respect to all matters specified in Article XI of the Plan.

8.Notice Parties’ Service Addresses.
