United States Constitution; and this Court having found that venue of this proceeding and the
Motion in this district is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409; and this Court having
found that the relief requested in the Motion is in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates, their
creditors, and other parties in interest; and this Court having found that the Debtors’ notice of the
Motion and opportunity for a hearing on the Motion were appropriate and no other notice need
be provided; and this Court having reviewed the Motion and having heard the statements in
support of the relief requested therein at a hearing before this Court (the “Hearing”); and this
Court having determined that the legal and factual bases set forth in the Motion and at the
Hearing establish just cause for the relief granted herein; and upon all of the proceedings had

shall be reinstated as if the payment had not been made; and (c) if there exists an outstanding
