The Debtors make no representation as to the existence or availability of any

insurance coverage or insurance policies, the amount of coverage, or the likelihood of recovery against any such insurance policies, if any. 4. Any and all proofs of claim filed by the Plaintiffs in these chapter 11 cases

Bankruptcy Code) pursuant to section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code based upon the Prepetition Mobley Litigation (or the claims asserted therein) against any of the Debtors and shall not be entitled to any distributions from the non-Debtor Affiliate or any of the Debtors, their estates, their successors, or other affiliates of the Debtors, whether under a chapter 11 plan or otherwise on behalf of such claim; provided, that to the extent the Insurance Policies are unable to satisfy a judgment or other disposition with respect to the Prepetition Mobley Litigation, the Plaintiffs agree that any such unsatisfied portion, which could otherwise be considered a general unsecured claim in the Debtors chapter 11 cases or a claim against the non-Debtor Affiliate or other
