As a result of that filing, the Debtor is acting as a debtor in possession. n 0ca1IVN90Lk-L*-MLO0PYV@E-* LaaaLO°FnLL-LV -11°c9LLLQVK6°Lk1♦°MLO°PYV80_♦ aaaLO°FnLL-LV 112 Case 15-11192 Doc 34 Filed 11/09/15 Page 2 of 5 2. This Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 and 11 U.S.C. §§ 105, 361, 363, 364, 365, 506, 1107 and 1108. 3. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105, and the Court may enter final orders in response to this Motion. 4. The Debtor i s a North Carolina corporation with i is principal pl ace of business located at 219 Watlington Drive, Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. The Debtor is engaged in the business of buying and selling scrap metal for commercial use. The Debtor was unable to pay debt obligations owed to Carolina Bank, which resulted in Carolina Bank initiating a lawsuit in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division, of Guilford County, North Carolina, against certain parties, including B. P. Greer Recycling, Inc. The complaint was filed on or before June 15, 2015. As a result of that filing and by and with the consent of the Debtor's owner and the other defendants, the Superior Court entered a Preliminary Injunction and appointed Thomas J . M cGoldrick, CT P, C IRA, CD BV as R eceiver ( "Receivership O rder"). T he Receivership Order was entered on June 15, 2015, and has been in effect since that date, and the Receiver has continued to manage the affairs of the Debtor. 5. As a result of the Receivership Order, the Receiver took control of the Debtor and has acted as its Chief Executive Officer, and has managed all of its operational and financial affairs since his appointment. As a result, he is familiar with the Debtor's business operations, operational history, financial history and current financial state. S aid party also has consulted with and is familiar with the outstanding alleged secured debts owed by the Debtor including, but not limited to, the substantial debt obligation owed to Carolina Bank. 6. In fulfilling his obligations the Receiver determined that the Debtor would not be able to continue to operate in the ordinary course of business or maintain its operational affairs without additional financing, and it did not appear that additional financing would be available. Therefore, the Receiver, shortly after being appointed, initiated efforts to market the Debtor's business and investigate the potential to sell substantially all its assets. As a result of those efforts, Case 15-11192 Doc 34 Filed 11/09/15 Page 3 of 5 the Receiver has obtained an offer pre -petition for the purchase of certain described assets of the Debtor. The offer contemplated the Debtor would file a petition for relief under Title 11, Chapter I I of the United States Code, and for the offer to be deemed an opening bid at an auction sale based upon certain preapproved sale procedures. Simultaneously with the filing of the Motion, the Debtor filed appropriate pleadings seeking authority to accomplish the same. 7. The R eceiver h as s ubstantial ex perience r elating t o b usiness, m anagement o f business and specifically, managing and assisting companies in financial difficulty. The Receiver works for Anderson Bauman Tourtellot Vos & Co., which is a turnaround management company that has substantial experience and resources available to it, as it relates to acting as a fiduciary in control of a d ebtor-in-possession. T he R eceiver, ba sed upon hi s di rect a xperience w ith t his Company and his overall experience in assisting financially troubled entities, is well positioned to act as a fiduciary Chief Restructuring Officer of the Debtor, and it would be in the best interest of the Debtor, its secured creditors, its unsecured creditors and all other parties in interest if this Court allows the Receiver to continue as the party in charge of the operation of the Debtor in Possession. Prior to the filing of the Chapter l 1 proceeding, the 100% owner of the Company, Brian P. Greer, executed a Resolution on behalf of the corporation which granted the Receiver authority to file a petition for relief under Chapter 11 and authority to continue to act as the fiduciary responsible for the Debtor in Possession. S. As a result of the filing of Motion and the request that the hearing be expedited, the Court entered an Order on October 30, 2015, shortening the notice period for certain motions, including the Motion pursuant to I I U S.C. § 54 3(d)(1) to allow for the matter to be heard on November 4, 2015. There was no Objection filed by any party in interest opposing the Motion. Charles M. Ivey, III, appeared for the Debtor, William P. Miller, the Bankruptcy Administrator appeared, W illiam E . Burton, III and Neale T . Johnson appeared for C arolina Bank, S arah F . Sparrow appeared for Foss Industrial Recycling, LLC ("Foss Industrial") and Foss Recycling, Inc., Holmes P.

Case 15-11192 Doc 34 Filed 11/09/15 Page 4 of 5 Schafer and Carolina Financial Securities. (All such parties are hereinafter referred to collectively as "G.R. Funding." Thomas S. Armour and Third Avenue Special Situations (Master) Fund, L.P. have filed UCC Financing Statements, along with all other parties represented by Tim Nerhood but had not retained him at the time of this hearing.) 9. The Debtor in Possession has requested and this Court approves the entry of a Sales Order which will authorize the Debtor to sell a majority of its assets by means of an auction sale, with t he S ales P rocedure be ing p redetermined by t his C ourt. F urthermore, t he Debtor h as requested and the Court approves that the assets of the Debtor may be operated and leased by the prospective purchaser, who will act as the initial Acceptable Bid at said auction. Both the sale and the lease arrangement were negotiated by the Receiver, who has substantial knowledge concerning these matters, as well as substantial knowledge relating to other parties who may have an interest in participating as a b idder i n the sale. A s a result o f the Receiver's p repetition contacts and involvement with the Debtor, good cause has been shown and it is in the best interest of the Debtor for the Receiver to continue to act as fiduciary for the Debtor in Possession in the capacity of a Chief Restructuring Officer through the closing of said sale, and for this matter to come before the Court for reconsideration at a hearing to be set after the closing date on said sale. 10. The compensation to be paid to the Chief Restructuring Officer shall be based upon an hourly rate of $375.00, which represents the normal hourly rate charged b y the Receiver in similar matters to this Chapter 11 proceeding. 11. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 543(d)(1) and after proper notice and hearing, it is herein determined that Thomas J. McGoldrick is a "custodian," as that term is used in 11 U.S.C. § 543 and, as a result, this Court has authority to excuse compliance with the reporting and turnover directives as contained in Section 543 that would be applicable to a custodian. This excuse of compliance is being granted as a result of it being in the best interest of creditors and based upon the Debtor, at the time of filing, appearing to be insolvent. Continued involvement of the Receiver in this Chapter 1 I pr oceeding for the purpose of aiding and assisting in the completion of the anticipated s ale will a id and assist in maximizing th e return for c reditors i n this m atter. T he Case 15-11192 Doc 34 Filed 11/09/15 Page 5 of 5 designation of the Receiver as the fiduciary in charge shall be as Chief Restructuring Officer of the Company. Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, IT IS ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED pursuant to l 1 U.S.C. § 543 that: 1, Thomas J. M cGoldrick, a s R eceiver, s hall be excused f rom t he t urnover a nd reporting requirements normally required of a custodian under Section 543; and 2. Said individual shall be designated as the Chief Restructuring Officer of the Debtor Corporation upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, and shall act in that capacity on behalf of the Debtor until further order of this Court; and NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN That the continuation of Thomas J. McGoldrick as Chief Restructuring Officer shall come back on f or further consideration by this Court on J anuary 5, 2016, at 9: 30 a.m., in Courtroom Number 2, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, 101 South Edgeworth Street, Greensboro, North Carolina 27401.

The Seller, through its Chief Restructuring Officer, (i) has full corporate power and authority to execute all documents contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively, the "Sale Documents"), and the sale of the Assets by the Seller has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Seller, (ii) has all of the corporate power and authority necessary to consummate all the Transactions contemplated by the Asset 5 916648vl Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 6 of 21 Purchase Agreement, (iii) has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize and approve the Asset Purchase Agreement and the consummation by the Seller of the Transactions contemplated thereby, and (iv) needs no consents or approvals, other than those expressly provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement and of this Court, to consummate such Transactions. L. The Debtor has demonstrated and proven to the satisfaction of this Court good, sufficient, and sound business purpose and justification for the Sale and the other Transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and this Order, pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. Exigent circumstances and sound business reasons exist for the Seller's sale of the Assets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement. Entry into the Asset Purchase Agreement and consummation of the Transactions contemplated thereby constitute the exercise by the Seller of sound business judgment and such acts are in the best interests of the Seller, its estate, and creditors. The Court finds that the Seller has articulated good and sufficient business reasons justifying the Sale of the Sale Assets pursuant to sections 105 and 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Such business reasons include, but are not limited to, the facts that (a) the Asset Purchase Agreement constitutes the highest or best offer for the Sale Assets; (b) the Asset Purchase Agreement and the closing thereon will present the best opportunity to realize the value of the Assets; (c) the consideration provided by the Purchaser for the purchase of the Assets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement exceeds what the Debtor would be able to realize in a liquidation of the Assets; and (d) the Debtor has insufficient funds and revenue to continue operations or to rectify the Notice of Violation. M. The Asset Purchase Agreement must be approved and consummated promptly in order to maximize the return to creditors in this bankruptcy case. 6 416648v1 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 7 of 21 N. The Asset Purchase Agreement and the Transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement were negotiated and have been and are undertaken by the Seller and the Purchaser at arm's length, without collusion or fraud, and in good faith within the meaning of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing, the Seller and the Purchaser are entitled to the protections of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. O. The Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser for the Assets, including the agreement to be responsible for rectifying the Notice of Violation, is fair and reasonable and constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the Bankruptcy Code and under the laws of the United States and applicable non -bankruptcy law. The Asset Purchase Agreement was not entered into for the purpose of hindering, delaying, or defrauding creditors. P. At the Sale Approval Hearing, counsel for the Debtor and counsel for Purchaser were present. Counsel represented on the record that no adjustments to the Purchase Price were necessary under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement or otherwise. Counsel for the Debtor further represented that no further contingencies existed which might affect the net value from the Sale recognized by the estate. Q. The aggregate consideration provided by the Purchaser for the Assets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and the assignment of the Assigned Contracts thereunder (i) is fair and reasonable, (ii) is the highest and best offer for the Assets and the Assigned Contracts, and (iii) will provide a greater recovery for the Debtor's creditors than would be provided by any other practical, available alternative. The terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement are also fair and reasonable. A sale of the Assets other than one free and clear of interests would impact materially and adversely on the Seller's bankruptcy estate and would yield substantially less value for the Seller's estate. Therefore, the Sale contemplated by the Asset Purchase 7 916648vt Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 8 of 21 Agreement is in the best interests of the Seller and its estate, creditors, and other parties in interest and is an exercise of its sound business judgment, as the entry of this Order and the approval of (a) the Sale of the Assets and the (b) assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts to the Purchaser under the Asset Purchase Agreement, pursuant to sections 363(b), 363(f), and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, are necessary and appropriate to maximize the value of the Debtor's estates. In addition, the relief requested in the Sale Motion (including, without limitation, the approval of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sale pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the other Transactions) is a necessary and appropriate step toward enabling the Debtor to successfully conclude this Chapter 1 1 case and is otherwise in the best interests of the Debtor, its creditors, its estate, and all other parties in interest in this case. R. A reasonable opportunity to object or be heard with respect to the Sale Motion and the relief requested therein has been afforded to all interested persons and entities, including- (i) the United States Bankruptcy Administrator; (ii) counsel for the Purchaser; (iii) all counterparties to the Assigned Contracts; (iv) all entities known to the Debtor to have expressed an interest in a transaction with respect to the Assets during the last nine months; (v) all parties that have requested notice pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002; and (vi) all other known creditors and equity interest holders. S. The transfer of the Assets to the Purchaser will be a legal, valid, and effective transfer of the Sale Assets, and, except as otherwise set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, will vest the Purchaser with all right, title, and interest of the Seller to the Sale Assets free and clear of all liens, claims, rights, interests and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever, including but not limited to (i) those that purport to give to any parry a right or option to effect any forfeiture, modification, right of first refusal, or termination of the Seller's or the Purchaser's 8 916648vl a Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 9 of 21 interest in the Assets, or any similar rights, (ii) those relating to taxes arising under or out of, in connection with, or in any way relating to the operation of the Assets prior to the Closing, and (iii) (A) all mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, conditional sale or other title retention agreements, pledges, liens, judgments, demands, encumbrances, rights of first refusal, or charges of any kind or nature, if any, including, but not limited to, any restriction on the use, transfer, receipt of income or other exercise of any attributes of ownership and (B) all debts arising in any way in connection with any agreements, acts, or failures to act, of any of the Seller or any of the Seller's predecessors or affiliates, claims (as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code), obligations, liabilities, demands, guaranties, options, rights, contractual or other commitments, restrictions, interests, and matters of any kind and nature, whether known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, whether arising prior to or subsequent to the commencement of this case pursuant to Chapter II of the Bankruptcy Code, and whether imposed by agreement, understanding, law, equity or otherwise, including but not limited to claims otherwise arising under doctrines of successor liability (collectively, "Interests"), other than the Assumed Liabilities as provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement. All such Interests either will be satisfied at closing of the Sale, or shall be solely preserved in, and transferred to, the proceeds of the sale. T. The Purchaser would not have entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement and would not consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, thus adversely affecting the Seller, its estate, and its creditors, if the sale of the Assets to the Purchaser and the assignment of the Assigned Contracts were not free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever (other than as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement), or if the Purchaser would, or in the 9 ei66axvi Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 10 of 21 future could, be liable for any of the Interests (including without limitation all Excluded Liabilities as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement). U. The Seller may sell the Assets free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever (except for the Assumed Liabilities), including but not limited to those below, because, in each case, the standards set forth in section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code have been satisfied as further described in the Auction and Sales Procedures Order. 1. As of Petition Date, Carolina Bank claimed a secured interest in the Debtor's real property including the Sale Asset of 219 Watlington Drive, aka 219 Watlington Industrial Drive, Reidsville, Rockingham County, NC described in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Carolina Bank's Deed of Trust, recorded August 30, 2013, is at Book 1462, Page 1522, Rockingham County Registry, NC and the Assignment of Rents, recorded August 30, 2013, is at Book 1462, Page 1546, Rockingham County Registry, NC. Carolina Bank also has recorded a UCC Fixture Financing Statement recorded in Book 1462, Page 1561 and has filed UCC's with the North Carolina Secretary of State. Carolina Bank has consented to the sale of the Sale Assets and pursuant to Section 363(f)(2) its liens on the Sale Assets may be transferred to the proceeds of sale. To the extent Carolina Bank holds a lien on real property which is an Excluded Asset, Carolina Bank's lien survives. Carolina Bank agrees to take such action as necessary to release its lien on the Sale Assets including the real property. 10 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 11 of 21 2. G.R. Funding, LLC claims a secured interest against certain of the Debtor's assets. G.R. Funding, LLC filed a judgment in the principal amount of $600,000 plus interest on or about July 15, 2015 against the Debtor in Rockingham County, North Carolina, and it may claim a secured interest pursuant to other documents including a filed UCC Financing Statement for itself and/or certain parties more particularly identified in the Auction and Sales Procedures Order (all collectively "G.R. Funding"). G.R. Funding consented to the Sale and, in addition, there exists a bona fide dispute as to whether G.R. Funding has a secured claim and, if so, if it is properly perfected. This dispute exists by and between the Debtor and G.R. Funding and Carolina Bank which asserts that its lien is superior to any lien claim of G.R. Funding and/or any claim that the Debtor could make as a result of avoiding said lien pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. 3. In addition, the following creditors may have security interest liens and/or tax liens on equipment or real property owned by the Debtor and included in the Sale Assets, and their claims of lien can be transferred to proceeds of sale pursuant to I I U.S.C. §§ 363(f)(3) or (f)(4): Commercial Credit Group, Inc.; Wells Fargo Equipment Finance Manufacturer Services Group; and Rockingham County Tax Collector, The Purchase Price is greater than the aggregate value of all liens in the Assets except to the extent Carolina Bank's lien amount .exceeds the sale price and Carolina Bank has consented to the sale. 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 12 of 21 V. The Seller has demonstrated that it is an exercise of its sound business judgment to assume and assign the Assigned Contracts to the Purchaser in connection with the consummation of the Sale, and the assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts is in the best interests of the Seller, its estate, and its creditors. The Assigned Contracts being assigned to, and the Assumed Liabilities being assumed by, the Purchaser are an integral part of the Assets being purchased by the Purchaser and, accordingly, such assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts and the Assumed Liabilities are reasonable, enhance the value of the Seller's estate, and do not constitute unfair discrimination. W. On November 17, 2015, and consistent with, and pursuant to the Auction and Sales Procedures Order, the Debtor filed its Motion to Assume One or More Leases and its Motion to Reject One or More Leases (collectively, the "Executory Contract Motions") upon all counterparties to executory contracts which the Debtor sought to assume and assign to any potential Purchaser pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Motion to Assume One or More Leases, among other things, specifically identified and set forth each executory contract which the Debtor sought to assume and assign and informed the parties that the Debtor was seeking to identify if there was a cure amount for each such contract, and whether any defaults existed. The Bankruptcy Noticing Center served a notice on all counter -parties that a hearing would be held on these motions December S, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. at the Bankruptcy Court. No party filed a written objection nor did any party orally object to the proposed assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts at the Sale Approval Hearing or the hearing on these motions. The motion provided that if there were a default it would be cured prior to assumption. There has been no dispute that Purchaser will be able to perform under the assumed and assigned contracts. The three leases or executory contracts the Debtor is authorized to assume and assign 12 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 13 of 21 are the contracts with BDI Properties, Ernest Wheeley, and Leaf Capital Funding, LLC. This Court by separate order will rule consistent with these findings on the Executory Contract Motions. Thus, the Debtor has, to the extent necessary, satisfied the requirements of section 365(b)(1) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code in connection with the sale, assumption, and assignment of the Assigned Agreements, and shall upon the assignment thereof at the Closing, be relieved from any liability for any breach of such Assigned Contracts or for any other obligations thereunder. X. Approval of the Asset Purchase Agreement and assumption and assignment of the Assigned Contracts and consummation of the Sale of the Assets at this time are in the best interests of Seller, its creditors, its estate, and other parties in interest. Y. Time is of the essence in closing the Transactions, and the Seller and the Purchaser intend to close the Sale and other Transactions as soon as possible. Authorizing the sale of the Assets under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code instead of through the plan confirmation process is warranted and appropriate in this case due to the substantial price paid for the Assets by Purchaser as well as the fact that Purchaser is a strategic purchaser of the Assets and immediately requires the assimilation of the Assets into its business processes. For all of the foregoing and after due deliberation, the Court ORDERS, ADJUDGES, AND DECREES THAT: 1. The Sale Motion is granted, as further described herein. 2. All objections and responses concerning the Sale Motion, if any, are resolved in accordance with the terms of this Order and as set forth in the record of the Hearings. To the extent any such objections or responses were not otherwise withdrawn, waived, or settled, all 13 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 14 of 21 such objections and all reservations of rights or relief requested therein, are hereby overruled and denied with prejudice. 3. The Asset Purchase Agreement, and all of the terms and conditions thereof, the Sale, and all other Transactions are hereby approved in all respects. 4. Pursuant to section 363(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Seller is authorized to perform its obligations under, and comply with the terms of, the Asset Purchase Agreement, and consummate the Sale and the other Transactions, pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement. 5, The Seller is authorized to execute and deliver, and empowered to perform under, consummate, and implement the Asset Purchase Agreement together with all additional instruments and documents that may be reasonably necessary or desirable to implement the Asset Purchase Agreement and to take all further actions as may be reasonably requested by the Purchaser and provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement for the purpose of assigning, transferring, granting, conveying, and conferring to the Purchaser or reducing to possession, the Sale Assets, or as may reasonably be necessary or appropriate to the performance of the obligations as contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement. 6. This Order and the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be binding in all respects upon all creditors (whether known or unknown) of the Seller, all non -debtor counterparties to the Assigned Contracts, all successors and assigns of the Purchaser, the Seiler, and its affiliates and subsidiaries (if any), the Assets, and any subsequent trustee(s) appointed in the Seller's Chapter 11 case or upon a conversion thereof to Chapter 7 under the Bankruptcy Code and shall not be subject to rejection. Nothing contained in any Chapter 11 plan confirmed in this bankruptcy case 14 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 15 of 21 or the confirmation order confirming any such Chapter 11 plan shall conflict with or derogate from the provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement or this Sale Order. 7. Except as expressly permitted or otherwise specifically provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement or this Sale Approval Order, pursuant to sections 105(a) and 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Assets shall be transferred to the Purchaser at, and subject to and conditioned upon, the Closing, and upon Closing shall be, free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever, except for the Assumed Liabilities, with all such Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever (except for the Assumed Liabilities) to attach to the net proceeds of the sale in the order of their priority, with the same validity, force, and effect which they now have as against the Assets, subject to any claims and defenses the Seller may possess with respect thereto. Nothing in this Sale Approval Order shall relieve Purchaser of claims which arise against it as the Operator under the Lease and Operating Management Agreement. 8. Except as expressly permitted or otherwise specifically provided by the Asset Purchase Agreement or this Sale Order, all persons and entities, including, but not limited to, all debt security holders, equity security holders, governmental, tax, and regulatory authorities, lenders, employees, trade, and other creditors, holding Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever (except for the Assumed Liabilities) against or in the Seller or the Assets (whether legal or equitable, secured or unsecured, matured or unmatured, contingent or non -contingent, senior or subordinated), arising under or out of, in connection with, or in any way relating to, the Seller, the Assets, the operation of the Assets prior to the Closing, or the transfer of the Assets to the Purchaser, are forever barred, estopped, and permanently enjoined from asserting against the Purchaser, its successors or assigns, its property, or the Assets, such persons' or entities' Interests. 15 916648v1 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 16 of 21 9. The transfer of the Assets to the Purchaser pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement does not require any consents other than as specifically provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement and constitutes a legal, valid, and effective transfer of the Assets, and shall vest the Purchaser with all right, title, and interest of the Seller in and to the Assets free and clear of all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever (except for the Assumed Liabilities). 10. Pursuant to sections 105(a), 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to and conditioned upon the Closing, the Seller's assumption and assignment to the Purchaser of the Assigned Contracts are approved and the requirements of section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect thereto are deemed satisfied. 1 I. The Seller is authorized in accordance with sections 105(a), 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code: (a) to assume and assign to the Purchaser, conditioned and effective upon the Closing of the Sale, the Assigned Contracts; and (b) to execute and deliver to the Purchaser such documents or other instruments as may be necessary to assign and transfer the Assigned Contracts (and any Assumed Liabilities associated therewith) to the Purchaser. 12. With respect to the Assigned Contracts: (a) the Assigned Contracts shall be transferred and assigned to, and following the closing of the Sale shall remain in full force and effect for the benefit of the Purchaser in accordance with their respective terms, notwithstanding any provision in any such Assigned Contracts (including those of the type described in sections 365(b)(2) and (f) of the Bankruptcy Code) that prohibits, restricts, or conditions such assignment or transfer and, pursuant to section 365(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtor shall be relieved from any further liability with respect to the Assigned Contracts (or the Assumed Liabilities) after such assignment to and assumption by the Purchaser; (b) each Assigned Contract is an executory contract of the Seller under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) the Seller may 16 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 17 of 21 assume each Assigned Contract in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; (d) the Seller may assign each Assigned Contract in accordance with sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and any provisions in any Assigned Contract that prohibit or condition the assignment of such Assigned Contract, that require a consent, approval, waiver, notice, or opinion from or to any party, or trigger any right of first refusal, right of first offer or co -sale, or allow the party to such Assigned Contract to terminate, recapture, impose any penalty, condition renewal or extension, or modify any term or condition upon the assignment of such Assigned Contract, constitute unenforceable anti -assignment provisions that are void and of no force and effect; (e) all other requirements and conditions under sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code for the assumption by the Seller and assignment to the Purchaser of each Assigned Contract have been satisfied; and (f) upon Closing, in accordance with sections 363 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Purchaser shall be fully and irrevocably vested in all right, title, and interest of each Assigned Contract. 13. As set forth above, the Debtor has satisfied the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, sections 365(b)(1) and (3) and 365(f)(2)(B), with respect to the Assigned Contracts. 14. The Purchaser, as a result of its presale operation of the Debtor's assets, shall pay any cure amounts pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Executory Contract Notice, and the Auction and Sales Procedures Order. The Assigned Contracts, upon assignment to the Purchaser, shall be and shall be deemed valid and binding, in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. 15. Any provision in any Assigned Agreement or any other agreement to which the Debtor is a party that purports to declare a breach or default as a result of a change in control of 17 9166480 Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 18 of 21 the Business or requires the consent of a non -Debtor party is hereby deemed unenforceable under section 365(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. 16. Except for any cure amounts or as otherwise specifically provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement, pursuant to sections 105(a), 363, and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, all parties to the Assigned Contracts are forever barred and enjoined from raising or asserting against the Purchaser or the Debtor any assignment fee, default, breach, or claim of pecuniary loss, or condition to assignment, arising under or related to the Assigned Contracts existing as of the Closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement or arising by reason of the Closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement. 17. After the Closing, the Seller and its estate shall have no further liabilities or obligations with respect to any Assigned Contract, and all holders of such claims are forever barred and estopped from asserting such claims against the Seller, its successors or assigns, its property, its assets, or its estate. 18. The consideration provided by the Purchaser for the Assets under the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration under the Bankruptcy Code. 19. On the Closing of the Sale, each of the Seller's creditors is authorized and directed to execute such documents and take all other actions as may be necessary to release its Interests in the Assets, if any, as such interests may have been recorded or may otherwise exist. 20. This Sale Approval Order shall be effective as a determination: (a) that, on the Closing, all Interests of any kind or nature whatsoever existing as to the Assets prior to the Closing have been unconditionally released, discharged, and terminated (other than the Assumed Liabilities); and (b) that the conveyances described herein have been effected. 18 916648v] Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 19 of 21 21. Except for the Assumed Liabilities or as expressly permitted or otherwise specifically provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement or this Sale Approval Order, the Purchaser shall have no liability or responsibility for any liability or other obligation of the Seller arising under or related to the Assets other than for the Assumed Liabilities. 22. Except as otherwise provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement or the Sale Approval Order, the sale, transfer, assignment and delivery of the Assets shall not be subject to any Interests, other than the Assumed Liabilities. Following the Closing, no holder of a lien or interest in the Assets other than the Assumed Liabilities shall interfere with the Purchaser's title to or use and enjoyment of the Sale Assets based on or related to such interest, or any actions that the Seller may take in its Chapter 11 case. 23. This Court retains jurisdiction to enforce and implement the terms and provisions of the Sale Approval Order and the Asset Purchase Agreement, all amendments thereto, any waivers and consents thereunder, and of each of the agreements executed in connection therewith in all respects, including, but not limited to, retaining jurisdiction: (a) subject to the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, to compel delivery of the Assets to Purchaser or performance of other obligations of Seller under the Asset Purchase Agreement; (b) to compel delivery of the purchase price by Purchaser or performance of other obligations of Purchaser contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement; (c) to resolve any disputes arising under or related to the Asset Purchase Agreement, except as otherwise provided therein; (d) to interpret, implement, and enforce the provisions of this Sale Approval Order; (e) to protect the Purchaser against any of the Excluded Liabilities or and claims or interests attaching to the proceeds of the Sale; and (f) to protect the Debtor from any Assumed Liabilities. 19 916648vl Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 20 of 21 24. The Transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement are undertaken by the Seller and Purchaser in good faith, as that term is used in section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code, and accordingly, the reversal or modification on appeal of the authorization provided herein to consummate the Sale shall not affect the validity of the Sale of the Assets to the Purchaser (including the assumption, assignment, and sale of any of the Assigned Contracts), unless such authorization is duly stayed pending such appeal. The Purchaser is a purchaser in good faith of the Assets and is entitled to all of the protections afforded by section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code. 25. The Purchaser has not engaged in any collusive or unfair practices which might subject the sale to Purchaser being avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. 26. The terms and provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement and this Sale Approval Order shall be binding in all respects upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Seller, its estate, and its creditors; the Purchaser, and its respective affiliates, successors, and assigns; and any affected third parties including, but not limited to, all persons asserting a claim, lien or interest in the Assets to be sold to the Purchaser pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, notwithstanding any subsequent appointment of any trustee(s), party, entity, or other fiduciary under any section of any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code or, as to which trustee(s), party, entity, or other fiduciary such terms and provisions likewise shall be binding. 27. The provisions of this Order and the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be binding upon, fully enforceable against, and inure to the benefit of any trustee, responsible officer, or other fiduciary appointed in this Chapter I 1 case under any section of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable law. Such binding effect is an integral part of this Order. 20 916648vl Case 15-11192 Doc 70 Filed 12/15/15 Page 21 of 21 28. The Asset Purchase Agreement and any related agreements, documents, or other instruments may be modified, amended, or supplemented by the parties thereto, in a writing signed by both parties, and in accordance with the terms thereof, without further order of the Court, provided that any such modification, amendment, or supplement does not have a material adverse effect on the Seller's estate. 29. The stay of orders authorizing: (i) the use, sale, or lease of property as provided for in Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h); and (ii) the assignment of an executory contract or unexpired lease as provided for in Bankruptcy Rule 6006(d) shall not apply to this Sale Approval Order, and this Sale Approval Order is immediately effective and enforceable. 30. Upon the Closing of the Sale, and without further order of this Court, the Debtor is authorized to pay from the proceeds of sale all customary costs of sale, including the quarterly fee of the Bankruptcy Court associated with the Sale and the following secured obligations as outlined in the Sale Motion and the Auction and Sale Procedures Order: (i) Carolina Bank in the amount equal to the total Purchase Price less the amounts specified in items (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) as follows and any other allowable costs of sale, including the $145,000 Carve Out for the Chapter I 1 Estate; (ii) Wells Fargo Equipment Finance in the amount of $17,933.84; (iii) Commercial Credit Group, Inc. ("CCGI"), in the amount of $67,500, as agreed by and between Carolina Bank and CCGI in full satisfaction of CCGI's secured lien claim; (iv) the sum of $77,500 shall be held in escrow and disbursed according to the joint instructions of counsel for Carolina Bank and G.R. Funding; and (iv) prorated Rockingham County and City of Lynchburg Ad Valorem Taxes related to the Sale Assets.

A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by any material. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. Secondary containment is defined in the permit as "Spill containment for the contents of the single largest tank within the containment structure plus sufflIcient freeboard to allow for the 25-year, 24-hour storm event." I've attached a PDF to this email with some additional information that defines bulk storage, etc. in case that might be helpful as well. Typically, the design of the secondary containment area is up to the permittee, as long as the containment meets the permit requirements. When we check secondary containment areas, we check to make sure that tanks are free of rust, damage, weathering, pits, and deterioration. We also look for cracks, holes, and evidence of leaks in concrete areas. Ali drain valves should be kept shut and locked. That's pretty much it. Hope that helps! I know it's a lot. Thanks for submitting the NOI - I will probably hear from Central Office in the next few weeks about it and we can get your Certificate of Coverage issued. Please feel free to contact me any time! I will be out of the office and away from the phone today, but I'm checking my email. Thanks, and have a great day!

Also — the classifications can be determined from this website: httpa/portal.ncdenr.org/.web/wc/pslcsu/classifications.

That map is pretty confusing, but basically it just means that Rockingham County has its own water supply/watershed protection ordinance under Planning & Inspections. I'm not sure whether they have additional requirements for industries, but their stormwater/water shed website is here: http://www.co.rockingham.nc.us/pview.aspx?id=14989&catlD=407. As far as the State is concerned, for your NPDES permit, you can just submit the NOI to the address given at the bottom of the last page with the listed enclosures. You do not need to file a permit application locally with Reidsville or Rockingham County. It was good to hear from you! Thanks so much!

Reeder Governor Acting Director 25 June 2013 Ryan Swaim Greer Recycling 107 Northeast Market Street Reidsville, NC 27320-2920 SUBJECT: NPDES General Stormwater Permit Requirements Greer Recycling - Reidsville, NC Rockingham County Dear Mr. Swaim: John E. Skvarla, III Secretary Aana Taylor -Smith of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality met with you at the Greer Recycling. facility in Reidsville on 18 June 2013 for a routine inspection under the NPDES General Stormwater Permit NCG010000 for Construction Activities. During that inspection, it was noted that the Greer Recycling facility does not have the required NPDES Stormwater Permit for its industrial activities. Stormwater discharges from scrap metal operations fall under the Phase I permitting requirements established in 1990. Coverage under the NPDES General Stormwater Permit NCG200000 is applicable to owners having stormwater discharges associated with establishments primarily engaged in assembling, breaking up, sorting, and wholesale trade of scrap metal. Your facility is classified as Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) 5093, which is covered under the permit. More information about stormwater permits can be found at htti):L/portal.nedenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/npdessw. To comply with the above requirement, Greer Recycling needs to obtain the above permit. Attached is the required application. Please send the completed form along with the $100 application fee and a USGS topographic map to the Raleigh address listed on page 4 of the application on or before 25 August 2013. A Technical Bulletin explaining the requirements of the stormwater permit is also attached. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Aana Taylor -Smith at (336) 771-4950 (aana.taylor-smith@ncdenr.gov) or me at (336) 771-5000 (corey.basinger@ncdenr.gov). cc: Central Files WSRO North Carolina Division of Water Quality, Winston-Salem Regional Office Location: 585 Waughtown St. Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27107 Phone: 336-771-50001 FAX: 336-771-46301 Customer Service: 1-877-623-6748 Internet: www.ncwaterquality.org Sincerely, W.
