The debtor will be able to make all payments under the plan; or there is a reasonable likelihood that the debtor will be able to make all payments under the plan; and the plan provides appropriate remedies, which may include the liquidation of nonexempt assets, to protect the holders of claims or interests in the event that the payments are not made. the maintenance or support of the debtor or a dependent of the debtor; or a domestic support obligation that first becomes payable after the date of the filing of the petition; or for the payment of expenditures necessary for the continuation, preservation, or operation of the business of the debtor. Notwithstanding section 1129(a)(9)(A) of this title , a plan that provides for the payment through the plan of a claim of a kind specified in paragraph (2) or (3) of section 507(a) of this title may be confirmed under subsection (b) of this section.
