What This Document Is

Exhibit C to the Plan Supplement (Docket 561.0): a preliminary Wind Down Budget covering two post-Effective-Date scenarios for the Debtors' PPP loan-servicing book.

Factual Summary

The budget presents two alternative scenarios: a "Transfer Budget," assuming all PPP loan servicing is transferred to an alternative servicer with the Debtors performing no post-Effective-Date servicing, and a "Servicing Budget," under which the Debtors continue servicing after the Effective Date in their discretion. Both budgets assume a Wind Down Officer is selected to implement the wind-down and pursue the Causes of Action reserved elsewhere in the Plan Supplement (Docket 561.2). The Transfer Budget assumes the Effective Date occurs "on or around March 31, 2023" and that an expedited corporate wind-down lasts approximately four months, though the Wind Down Estates would remain in existence longer to realize on assets including litigation claims. The budget expressly excludes the professional Fee Escrow Amount, which is separately funded and not treated as estate property. The document states the figures are preliminary, subject to material revision, and prepared in good faith based on the Debtors' advisors' assumptions, cautioning that actual results may differ materially.

Key Facts

  • Presents two scenarios (servicing transferred vs. continued in-house) for the wind-down period following the Plan's Effective Date.
  • Projects an Effective Date "on or around March 31, 2023" and an expedited four-month wind-down period, with the estate itself persisting longer to pursue litigation claims.
  • Both budgets are contingent on a Wind Down Officer being selected — not yet identified as of this filing (Exhibit D).
  • The professional Fee Escrow Amount is excluded from the budget and is not treated as property of the estate.

Source Caveats

  • The budget is explicitly preliminary and subject to material revision; this summary should not be read as a final financial outcome.
  • The full itemized budget figures (line-item dollar amounts) are not reproduced here; consult the source PDF for exact figures.

EXHIBIT C
Wind Down Budget
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 561-3    Filed 02/21/23    Page 1 of 7

Wind Down Budget1

This schedule reflects the following: (1) a Wind Down Budget for the PPP Transfer
scenario where all loan servicing is transferred to an alternative servicer (the “Transfer Budget”)
and (2) a Wind Down Budget for the Post-Effective Date PPP Servicing scenario, where the
Debtors in their sole discretion, subject to Plan requirements, offer post-Effective Date servicing
(the “Servicing Budget” and together with the Transfer Budget, the “Wind Down Budgets”).
The Wind Down Budgets assume a Wind Down Officer is selected to effectuate the Wind Down
of the Debtors’ operations and pursue Causes of Action for the beneficiaries of the Wind Down
Estate.

The Wind Down Budgets include certain amounts for disputed claims and the actual
amounts of such claims may be higher or lower than the estimated disputed amount. The Wind
Down Budgets are preliminary and subject to further review and material revision and have been
prepared in good faith based on what the Debtors’ advisors believe are reasonable assumptions.
The Wind Down Budgets are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties and should be reviewed in
connection with the Disclosure Statement and the risk factors and assumptions set forth therein.
Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from
any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking
statements.
Transfer Budget
Assumptions
General
 The Transfer Budget assumes that the Debtors are not engaged in any
post-Effective Date loan servicing.
Timing
 The Transfer Budget assumes that a Wind Down will commence on
the Effective Date of the Plan, which is assumed to occur on or
around [March 31, 2023].
 The Transfer Budget assumes that an expedited corporate wind
down will last approximately four months, although the ultimate
length may vary in duration, and for the avoidance of doubt, the
Wind Down Estates will remain in existence for a sufficient time to
realize on the estate assets, including but not limited to, Causes of
Action.
Professional Fees
 The Transfer Budget does not reflect the professional Fee Escrow
Amount or amounts to be included therein.  The Fee Escrow Account
is assumed to be funded on or before the Effective Date and funds
held in the Fee Escrow Account shall not be considered property of
the Debtors’ estates or property of the Wind Down Estates and shall

1 Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Amended
Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation of Kabbage, Inc. (d/b/a/ KServicing) and its Affiliated Debtors (as may be
amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time) (the “Plan”).

be held in trust for estate-retained professionals, subject to Section
2.2 of the Plan.
 The post-Effective Date professional fee estimates reflected in the
Transfer Budget do not reflect a general unsecured claims
reconciliation or objection process.
Receipts
 Legacy Loan Portfolio: The Transfer Budget assumes the Wind
Down Estates will not be making collections from borrowers of
Legacy Loans during the Wind Down period because the Legacy
Loans are presumed to have been sold on or about the Effective Date.
Therefore, the Transfer Budget does not contemplate any potential
proceeds from the sale of the Legacy Loans.
 PPPLF Portfolio:  The Transfer Budget assumes the Wind Down
Estates will not receive collections on account of borrower payments
or remittances to the Partner Banks or Reserve Bank with the
exception of final remittances from any residual collections on
account of loans transferred as of the Effective Date.
Operating Expenses
 Includes payment of employees with a reduced workforce to account
for discontinued servicing and payment of fees to independent
contractors for limited staff as well as continued payment of rent and
utilities for the Debtors’ leased premises and information technology
related costs during the 4 month Wind Down period.
Non-Operating
Expenses
 Assumes renewal of certain policies with annual premiums paid on
expiration date, including director and officer insurance purchased in
the Wind Down period, as well as payment of taxes during the Wind
Down period.
 Payment of quarterly U.S. Trustee fees.
Professional Fees
 Assumes certain funding for Wind Down Officer services for three
years and fees for tax advisors and legal counsel solely on account
of effectuating corporate dissolution and preparation for final tax
returns.
 Assumes certain funding for the Wind Down Estates to pursue
Causes of Action.  In addition, Wind Down Officer may retain
counsel based on different fee arrangements, including on a
contingency fee basis, that may vary from the amounts listed
herein.

Servicing costs may differ depending on how many of the foregoing
portfolios are serviced on a post-Effective Date basis.

Loans.
