Despins, as chapter 11 trustee (the \"Trustee\") appointed in the chapter 11 case\n\n(the \"Chapter 11 Case\") of Ho Wan Kwok (the \"Debtor\"), pursuant to Rules 9006(c)(1) and\n\n2002(i) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Bankruptcy Rules\"), hereby moves\n\n(the \"Motion to Expedite\") this Court for entry of an order scheduling an expedited hearing to\n\nconsider and determine the *Motion of Chapter 11 Trustee, Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section*\n\n*363(b), for Entry of Order Authorizing Trustee to Enter Into, and Perform Under, Certain*\n\n*Postpetition Agreements Relating to Maintenance and Operation of the Lady May* (the \"Yacht\n\nAgreements Motion\") and granting related relief. 2 In support of this Motion to Expedite, the\n\nTrustee respectfully states as follows:\n\n<sup>1</sup> The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases are Ho Wan Kwok (also known as Guo Wengui, Miles Guo, and Miles Kwok, as well as numerous other aliases) (last four digits of tax identification number: 9595), Genever Holdings LLC (last four digits of tax identification number: 8202) and Genever Holdings Corporation. The mailing address for the Trustee, Genever Holdings LLC, and Genever Holdings Corporation is Paul Hastings LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166 c/o Luc A. Despins, as Trustee for the Estate of Ho Wan Kwok (solely for purposes of notices and communications).\n\n<sup>2</sup> Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Motion to Expedite have the meanings set forth in the Lady May Agreements Motion.\n\n### **JURISDICTION, VENUE, AND STATUTORY BASES**\n\n1. The Court has jurisdiction to consider this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 and the *Standing Order of Reference* from the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2).\n\n2. Venue is proper before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.\n\n3. The bases for the relief sought by this Motion to Expedite are Bankruptcy Rule 9006(c)(1) and 2002(i).\n\n### **BACKGROUND**\n\n4. In order to operate and maintain the Lady May and to protect and preserve this valuable asset for the benefit of the Debtor's creditors pending a future sale, the Trustee has entered into three agreements, subject to the approval of his Court—namely, the Management Agreement with Yachtzoo, the Crew Provision Agreement with FDS, and the Dockage Agreement with Bridgeport Harbor Marina (collectively, the \"Yacht Maintenance Agreements\").\n\n5. The Yacht Agreements Motion seeks entry of an order authorizing the Trustee to enter into, and perform under, the Yacht Maintenance Agreements, including the payment the reasonable operational expenses incurred in the ordinary course of maintaining and operating the Lady May, in accordance with the Yacht Maintenance Agreements, all as further detailed in the Yacht Agreements Motion. The Trustee incorporates herein by reference the background section from the Yacht Agreements Motion.\n\n### **RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n6. The Trustee respectfully requests that the Court schedule a hearing on the Lady May Agreements Motion on or before **April 12, 2023**, subject to the Court's availability. In addition, the Trustee requests that the Court order that any objections to the Lady May\n\n2\n\nAgreements Motion be filed on or before **April 10, 2023 at 4:00 p.m. (ET)**. The Trustee will address the arguments raised in any such objections at the hearing on the Yacht Agreements Motion.\n\n7. In addition, the Trustee requests that the Court limit, pursuant to Rule 2002(i) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Bankruptcy Rules\"), service of the Yacht Agreements Motion to (i) all parties who receive notice in these chapter 11 cases by operation of the Court's electronic filing (\"CM/ECF\") and (ii) any party who requested notice in these chapter 11 cases, but is unable to accept electronic filing as indicated on the Notice of Electronic Filing.\n\n### **BASIS FOR RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n8. Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 9006(c)(1), the Court may reduce the notice period when requested by motion where cause is demonstrated. Cause exists to consider and determine the Lady May Agreements Motion on an expedited basis\n\n9. Now that the Court has determined that the Lady May is an asset of the Debtor's estate, the Trustee must ensure that the Lay May is maintained in working order pending an eventual sale for the benefit of this estate. As detailed in the Yacht Agreements Motion, the Management Agreement, the Crew Provision Agreement, and the Dockage Agreement are necessary to maintain the Lady May and preserve its value pending an eventual sale.\n\n10. In order to ensure proper maintenance of the Lady May, as well as compliance with numerous certification and regulatory requirements (all as detailed in the Yacht Agreements Motion), it is imperative that the Trustee retain the service of Yachtzoo, FDS, and the Bridgeport Harbor Marina as soon as possible. Without the services of a yacht manager and a crew, and, of course, a marina to dock the Lady May, the Lady May risks falling into disrepair (or worse), which would result in additional repair expenses and/or substantially reduce the prospect of a\n\n3\n\nsuccessful sale. In fact, without the services to be provided in connection with the Management Agreement and Crew Provision Agreement, the Lady May would fall out of compliance with applicable certifications, regulatory requirements, and insurance coverage, all of which are critical to protect and preserve the Lady May for the benefit of this estate. Moreover, various operational expenses will need to be paid as soon as possible, including crew salaries, insurance premiums, and supplies/materials to maintain the Lady May.\n\n11. For these reasons, it is critical that the Trustee's entry into these agreements is approved as promptly as possible to avoid any issues with the maintenance of the Lady May.\n\n12. Finally, the Trustee requests that the Court waive the requirement that the Yacht Agreements Motion be served on all creditors in these chapter 11 cases. While Bankruptcy Rule 2002(a)(2) generally requires that notice of a hearing on the proposed use, sale or lease of property of the estate other than in the ordinary course of business must be given to all creditors, Bankruptcy Rule 2002(i) allows the Court to limit service to the official committee of unsecured creditors or its authorized agents and to the creditors and equity security holders who filed a request that all notices be mailed to them.\n\n13. As of the today, approximately 1,300 claims have been filed in these chapter 11 cases—the overwhelming majority of which are individuals located in foreign jurisdictions and many of whom have elected confidential treatment of their claims (in accordance with the bar date order). The Trustee submits that it would be unduly burdensome for the estates to serve every fee and/or expense application on 1,300 parties. Doing so would consume resources that these estates do not have, nor would it serve the interests of the creditors of these estates. In fact, it is very unlikely that individual creditors would have any interest in reviewing operational and maintenance agreements with respect to the Lady May—especially given that (a) several\n\n4\n\ncreditors are already active (and have filed notices of appearances) in these chapter 11 cases and (b) an official committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in the Debtor's chapter 11 case.\n\n14. Accordingly, the Trustee submits that it is appropriate to limit service of the Yacht Agreements Motion to (i) all parties who receive notice in these chapter 11 cases by operation of CM/ECF and (ii) any party who requested notice in these chapter 11 cases, but is unable to accept electronic filing as indicated on the Notice of Electronic Filing.\n\n### **NO PREVIOUS REQUEST**\n\n15. No previous request for the relief sought herein has been made by the Plaintiffs to this or any other court.\n\n### **CONCLUSION**\n\n16. It is imperative that all steps be taken to preserve the Lady May for the benefit of this estate, and, accordingly, the Trustee requests that the Yacht Agreements Motion be heard on an expedited basis.\n\n[*Remainder of page intentionally left blank.*]\n\nWHEREFORE, the Trustee respectfully request entry of the Proposed Order granting the\n\nrelief requested herein and such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.\n\nNew Haven, Connecticut\n\n### Dated: April 5, 2023 LUC A.

Despins（仅用于通知与联络目的）。\n\n2 本加快审理动议中使用但未另行定义的首字母大写术语，具有与《Lady May 协议动议》中所载相同的涵义。\n\n管辖权、审判地及法定依据\n\n1. 根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 及 1334 以及 United States District Court for the District of Connecticut（美国康涅狄格区联邦地区法院）的移交常规命令，本法院对审理本事项具有管辖权。根据 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2)，本程序属于核心程序。\n\n2. 根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 及 1409，本法院为适格审判地。\n\n3. 本加快审理动议所寻求救济的依据为《破产规则》第 9006(c)(1) 条及第 2002(i) 条。\n\n背景\n\n4. 为运营和维护“Lady May”号，并在未来出售前为债务人债权人的利益保护和保全该项宝贵资产，在取得本法院批准的前提下，受托人已签署了三份协议——即与 Yachtzoo 签订的《管理协议》、与 FDS 签订的《船员提供协议》以及与 Bridgeport Harbor Marina（布里奇波特港游艇码头）签订的《停泊协议》（统称“游艇维护协议”）。\n\n5. 《游艇协议动议》请求作出命令，授权受托人签订并履行《游艇维护协议》，包括按照《游艇维护协议》支付在维护和运营“Lady May”号的通常业务过程中产生的合理运营费用，全部内容详见《游艇协议动议》。受托人特此援引《游艇协议动议》中的背景部分并将其纳入本动议。\n\n请求的救济\n\n6. 受托人谨请求法院在法院日程允许的情况下，于 2023年4月12日 或该日之前排定对《Lady May 协议动议》的听证会。此外，受托人请求法院命令针对《Lady May 协议动议》的任何异议须于 2023年4月10日 下午 4:00（美国东部时间）或该时间之前提交。受托人将在《游艇协议动议》听证会上回应任何此类异议中提出的论点。\n\n7. 此外，受托人请求法院根据《联邦破产程序规则》（下称“《破产规则》”）第 2002(i) 条，将《游艇协议动议》的送达范围限定为：(i) 通过法院电子归档系统（“CM/ECF”）的运行在这些第 11 章案件中接收通知的所有当事方，以及 (ii) 在这些第 11 章案件中请求接收通知、但如《电子归档通知》所示无法接受电子归档的任何当事方。\n\n所请求救济的依据\n\n8. 根据《破产规则》第 9006(c)(1) 条，在提出动议并证明存在正当理由的情况下，法院可缩短通知期限。以加快程序审理并裁决《Lady May 协议动议》存在正当理由。\n\n9. 既然法院已认定“Lady May”号属于债务人破产财产的资产，受托人必须确保在最终为本破产财产的利益进行出售之前，使“Lady May”号保持良好运转状态。如《游艇协议动议》中所详述，《管理协议》、《船员提供协议》和《停泊协议》对于在最终出售前维护“Lady May”号并保全其价值而言是必不可少的。\n\n10. 为确保“Lady May”号得到适当维护，并遵守诸多认证和监管要求（全部详见《游艇协议动议》），受托人势必需要尽快聘请 Yachtzoo、FDS 和 Bridgeport Harbor Marina 的服务。如果没有游艇管理人和船员的服务，当然以及停泊“Lady May”号的游艇码头，“Lady May”号就有年久失修（或更糟）的风险，这将导致额外的维修费用，并/或大幅降低成功出售的前景。事实上，若没有与《管理协议》和《船员提供协议》相关的各项服务，“Lady May”号将无法符合适用的各项认证、监管要求及保险承保范围，而所有这些对于为了本破产财产的利益保护和保全“Lady May”号都至关重要。此外，需要尽快支付各项运营费用，包括船员工资、保险费以及维护“Lady May”号的物料/用品。\n\n11. 基于这些原因，受托人签署这些协议必须尽快获得批准，以避免“Lady May”号的维护出现任何问题，这一点至关重要。\n\n12. 最后，受托人请求法院免除将《游艇协议动议》送达这些第 11 章案件中所有债权人的要求。虽然《破产规则》第 2002(a)(2) 条通常要求，就非在通常业务过程中拟使用、出售或出租破产财产的听证会通知必须送达所有债权人，但《破产规则》第 2002(i) 条允许法院将送达范围限定于无担保债权人官方委员会或其授权代理人，以及已提交请求要求向其邮寄所有通知的债权人和权益证券持有人。\n\n13. 截至今日，这些第 11 章案件中已申报了约 1,300 笔债权——其中绝大多数是位于外国司法管辖区的个人，且其中许多人（根据债权申报截止期命令）已选择对其债权进行保密处理。受托人认为，要求破产财产向 1,300 个当事方送达每一份费用及/或开支申请将造成过重负担。这样做将消耗这些破产财产所不具备的资源，也不符合这些破产财产债权人的利益。事实上，个人债权人极不可能有任何兴趣去审阅有关“Lady May”号的运营与维护协议——特别是考虑到：(a) 若干债权人已在这些第 11 章案件中十分活跃（并已提交了出庭通知），以及 (b) 债务人的第 11 章案件中已任命了无担保债权人官方委员会。\n\n14. 因此，受托人认为，将《游艇协议动议》的送达范围限定为：(i) 通过 CM/ECF 的运行在这些第 11 章案件中接收通知的所有当事方，以及 (ii) 在这些第 11 章案件中请求接收通知、但如《电子归档通知》所示无法接受电子归档的任何当事方，是适当的。\n\n此前未提出请求\n\n15. 原告此前未曾就本动议所寻求的救济向本法院或任何其他法院提出过请求。\n\n结论\n\n16. 必须采取一切措施为本破产财产的利益保全“Lady May”号，因此，受托人请求加快审理《游艇协议动议》。\n\n[本页其余部分有意留白。]\n\n为此，受托人谨请求作出拟议裁定以批准本动议所请求的救济，以及法院认为公正且适当的其他及进一步救济。\n\n康涅狄格州纽黑文\n日期：2023年4月5日 LUC A.
