III. APPROVAL OF EXECUTORY CONTRACT AND UNEXPIRED LEASE PROVISIONS AND RELATED PROCEDURES.

	A.		The Executory Contract and Unexpired Lease provisions of Article VI of the Plan are specifically approved.
	B.		This Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Court approving the assumptions and assumptions and assignments described in Article VI

			of the Plan, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, as of the Effective Date.

	C.		If any party disputes the assumption or assumption and assignment of its Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or the amount of the proposed Cure Amount Claim set forth in the Cure Amount Notice, such party must

file and serve on the Reorganizing Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, a written objection setting forth the basis for such dispute no later than 30 days after the date of service of the Cure Amount Notice. If the parties are unable to resolve such a dispute, either (i) such dispute shall be determined by the Court after appropriate briefing and a hearing scheduled on not less than 30 days’ notice or (ii) the applicable Reorganizing Debtor or Reorganized Debtor may reject the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease at issue in accordance with Section 6.3 of the Plan. If the nondebtor party to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease does not timely and properly object to the proposed Cure Amount Claim identified in a Cure Amount Notice, the proposed amount shall become the final Allowed Cure Amount Claim without further action by the Court, the Reorganizing Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, and the proposed Cure Amount Claim shall be paid or satisfied in accordance with the Plan and this Confirmation Order. Until a Cure Amount Claim becomes Allowed in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section III.C and the Cure Amount Notice, such Claim shall be treated as a Disputed Claim for purposes of making distributions under the Plan.

VIII. OBJECTIONS TO CONFIRMATION.

     A. RESOLUTION OF CERTAIN OBJECTIONS TO CONFIRMATION.

          Certain of the Objections to Confirmation are hereby resolved on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below. The compromises and settlements contemplated by each resolution to an Objection are fair, equitable and reasonable, are in the best interests of the

Reorganizing Debtors and their respective Estates and creditors and are expressly approved pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9019.

	1.		Notwithstanding Section 12.2.a of the Plan, the right of the United States of America to effect the setoff of the Tax Refund against the Settling Agencies’ Claims, as provided in the Stipulation for Settlement of Controversy Between the Debtors and the United States of America, which was approved by the Court on February 1, 2005 (Docket No. 6065), and the right of the IRS to effect the setoff of the Overpayment against the IRS’s prepetition tax assessments for restricted interest, as provided in the Stipulation and Agreed Order to Permit Setoff of Internal Revenue Service Claim (D.I. 8101) (the “IRS Stipulation”), shall be unimpaired by the effectiveness of the Plan. Pursuant to the IRS Stipulation, the Objection of the IRS is deemed withdrawn.
	2.		To resolve the informal Objection of the DoJ, the parties have agreed as follows: Notwithstanding Section 12.2.a of the Plan, any setoff or recoupment rights of the United States, and any defenses the Reorganizing Debtors may have thereto, are expressly preserved, subject to the provisions of this paragraph. Through and including two years following the Effective Date of the Plan, the United

States shall have the right to exercise any setoff or recoupment rights with respect to any allowed unsecured claim of the United States, subject to any defenses the Reorganizing Debtors may have thereto. Such rights of the United States must be exercised by a writing delivered to the Reorganized Debtors within two years from the Effective Date. If the right of setoff or recoupment is approved by the Reorganized Debtors or by final order of the Bankruptcy Court, one or more of the allowed unsecured claims of the United States shall be reduced as necessary to reflect the setoff or recoupment and the United States shall return to the Reorganized Debtors either (i) a proportion of the shares of common stock of Reorganized KAC (the “Returnable Shares”) distributed to it under the Plan (together with any cash or equity distributions on account of the Returnable Shares) equal to the proportionate reduction in the allowed amount of the unsecured claim(s) or, if the Returnable Shares have been sold, (ii) cash in an amount equal to (x) the greater of (a) the sale proceeds received by the United States for the Returnable Shares, (b) the number of Returnable Shares multiplied by $19 per share, the projected equity value for the shares as set forth in the Disclosure Statement, or (c)

			the number of Returnable Shares multiplied by the reported closing price for the shares on the date the setoff or recoupment becomes effective, plus (y) an amount equal to any cash or equity distributions made on account of the Returnable Shares, provided that in the event of an equity distribution the cash amount in respect of that distribution will be determined in the same manner as the cash amount in (ii)(x) above. The Returnable Shares or cash (and any cash or equity distributions) will be redistributed as contemplated by Section 7.5.b(ii) of the Plan. As an example of how Returnable Shares will be calculated, if an approved setoff or recoupment right reduces an allowed unsecured claim of the United States by 50 percent, then Returnable Shares will equal one-half of the number of shares of Reorganized KAC common stock the United States received in respect of that allowed unsecured claim.
	3.		The Objection of the Texas Comptroller has been withdrawn in accordance with the December 16, 2005 letter agreement executed by the Texas Comptroller and counsel for the Reorganizing Debtors, which sets forth certain agreements among the parties relating to the allowance and payment of the Texas Comptroller’s claim and the future

			assertion by the Reorganizing Debtors of any claim for a tax refund.
	4.		The Retirees’ Committee’s Objection is resolved and deemed withdrawn based on the Court’s approval of (a) the Amended and Restated Agreement and (b) the Third Modifications, which include certain modifications to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of KAC, which is Exhibit 4.3.a(i) to the Plan.
	5.		The objection of Santown is resolved as follows.
