Section 1124. Impairment of claims or interests

      Except as provided in section 1123(a)(4) of this title, a class
    of claims or interests is impaired under a plan unless, with
    respect to each claim or interest of such class, the plan - 
        (1) leaves unaltered the legal, equitable, and contractual
      rights to which such claim or interest entitles the holder of
      such claim or interest; or
        (2) notwithstanding any contractual provision or applicable law
      that entitles the holder of such claim or interest to demand or
      receive accelerated payment of such claim or interest after the
      occurrence of a default - 
          (A) cures any such default that occurred before or after the
        commencement of the case under this title, other than a default
        of a kind specified in section 365(b)(2) of this title;
          (B) reinstates the maturity of such claim or interest as such
        maturity existed before such default;
          (C) compensates the holder of such claim or interest for any
        damages incurred as a result of any reasonable reliance by such
        holder on such contractual provision or such applicable law;
        and
          (D) does not otherwise alter the legal, equitable, or
        contractual rights to which such claim or interest entitles the
        holder of such claim or interest.
