AS SPECIAL INSURANCE COVERAGE COUNSEL**\n\nGenever Holdings LLC (\"Genever (US)\"), debtor in the above-captioned jointly administered chapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\") hereby moves the Court (the \"Application\") pursuant to sections 327(e), 328(a), and 329(a) of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\"), Rules 2014 and 2016 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Bankruptcy Rules\"), and Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1 of the Local Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the \"Local Bankruptcy Rules\") for the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (the \"Court\"), for entry of an order (the \"Order\"), substantially in the form of **Exhibit A** hereto, authorizing Genever (US) to employ of Saxe Doernberger & Vita,\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 the 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\nP.C. (\"SDV\") as special insurance coverage counsel. In support of this Application, Genever (US) states the following:\n\n## **RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n1. By this Application, Genever (US) seeks entry of an order, substantially in the form of the proposed order filed herewith, authorizing and approving the retention and employment of SDV as Genever (US)'s special insurance coverage counsel, effective as of May 11, 2023, to represent Genever (US) with respect to insurance coverage disputes, including with respect to Genever (US)'s litigation recently commenced against American International Group, Inc. (\"AIG\") under Adv. Proc. No. 23-5007 (the \"AIG Action\").\n\n2. Genever (US) selected SDV as its special insurance coverage counsel based on SDV's expertise with insurance disputes. Moreover, as Genever (US) previously disclosed, its bankruptcy counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, represents AIG in certain unrelated matters.2 For that reason, and out of an abundance of caution, Genever (US) previously advised this Court that Paul Hastings LLP would not serve as counsel to Genever (US) in the AIG Action.\n\n3. In support of this Application, Genever (US) submits the *Declaration of Brian J. Clifford in Support of Application of Genever Holdings LLC for Entry of Order, Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Sections 327(e), 328, and 329, Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Bankruptcy Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1, Authorizing and Approving Retention and Employment of Saxe Doernberger & Vita, P.C. as Special Insurance Coverage Counsel* (the \"Clifford Declaration\"), attached as **Exhibit B**, which is incorporated herein by reference.\n\n<sup>2</sup> To be clear, Luc Despins has not represented AIG and is not conflicted as to AIG.\n\n## **JURISDICTION, VENUE, AND STATUTORY BASES**\n\n4. The Court has jurisdiction over 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 within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 157(b).\n\n5. Venue in this District is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.\n\n6. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 327(e), 328(a), and 329(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, to the extent applicable, Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Bankruptcy Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1.\n\n### **BACKGROUND**\n\n## **A. Genever (US)'s Chapter 11 Case**\n\n7. On October 12, 2020, Genever (US) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the \"SDNY Bankruptcy Court\"), thereby commencing case number 20-12411 (JLG). *See Chapter 11 Petition* [Docket No. 1 in Case No. 22-50592 (JAM)].\n\n8. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in Genever (US)'s case.\n\n9. Genever (US) owns apartment space comprised of the entire 18th floor (the \"Apartment\"), as well as Apartment MR 2219, and Apartment MR 719 (collectively with the Apartment, the \"Covered Residences\") in the Sherry-Netherland building located at 781 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10022 (the \"Sherry-Netherland\").\n\n10. On November 3, 2022, the SDNY Bankruptcy Court entered an order transferring the venue of Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case to this Court. *See Memorandum Decision and Order Granting the Joint Motion of (A) Genever Holdings LLC and (B) Luc A. Despins as*\n\n*Chapter 11 Trustee for Estate of Ho Wan Kwok to Transfer, Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408, and 1412 and Bankruptcy Rule 1014(a), Venue of Chapter 11 Case of Genever Holdings LLC to Bankruptcy Court for District of Connecticut* [Docket No. 225 in Case No. 22-50592 (JAM)].\n\n11. The chapter 11 cases of Ho Wan Kwok, Genever (US), and Genever Holdings Corporation (\"Genever (BVI)\") are being jointly administered before this Court for procedural purposes only. *See* Docket No. 1141 in Case No. 22-50073 (JAM).\n\n## **B. AIG Insurance Policies and Commencement of AIG Action3**\n\n12. On March 6, 2015, Genever (US) executed a proprietary lease with the Sherry-Netherland (the \"Proprietary Lease\"), a cooperative housing corporation through which Genever (US) owns a number of shares that are assigned to various apartments that Genever (US) leases.\n\n13. Pursuant to the terms of the Proprietary Lease, Genever (US) purchased from AIG property insurance coverage in excess of \\$28 million to protect the Covered Residences and valuable property therein. The insurance Genever (US) purchased obligates AIG to pay for \"all risk\" of property loss that Genever (US) may suffer except that which is expressly excluded. In addition, the insurance Genever (US) purchased from AIG affords liability coverage for claims arising out of its ownership of the Covered Residences. The property and liability insurance policies AIG sold to Genever (US) are hereinafter referred to as the \"AIG Insurance Policies.\"\n\n14. On March 15, 2023, Genever (US) suffered a loss at the Apartment when a fire broke out (the \"Fire\"). As a result of the Fire, Genever (US) has suffered physical damage to its Apartment and property therein.\n\n<sup>3</sup> For a detailed summary of the AIG Insurance Policies and the events leading up to the commencement of the AIG Action, we refer to the complaint filed in the AIG Action [Docket No. 1 in Adv. Proc. No. 23-5007].\n\n15. On April 25, 2023, without any indication that AIG had concluded its investigation into the Fire, AIG issued \"Notices of Cancellation of Insurance\" (the \"Notices of Cancellation\") purporting to cancel the AIG Insurance Policies.\n\n16. Following receipt of the Notices of Cancellation, the Trustee, acting pursuant to a proxy granted by Genever (BVI), selected SDV to represent Genever (US) with respect to insurance coverage disputes, including with respect to the AIG Action.\n\n17. On May 12, 2023, Genever (US) commenced the AIG Action seeking, among other things, (i) to enjoin AIG from cancelling the AIG Insurance Policies, (ii) a declaration that AIG must provide coverage under the AIG Insurance Policies, (iii) a declaration that AIG may not cancel the AIG Insurance Policies for the March 6, 2023 to March 6, 2024 policy term and that AIG's notices of cancellation are legally insufficient under New York insurance law, (iv) awarding Genever (US) compensatory damages for breach of contract, (v) awarding Genever (US) immediate insurance proceeds for emergency clean-up measures necessary to protect its interests, render the Apartment saleable, and limited Genever (US)'s third party claims arising out of the Fire, and (vi) awarding Genever (US) punitive damages and/or sanctions.\n\n### **SDV'S QUALIFICATIONS**\n\n18. SDV is a law firm whose principal office is located at 35 Nutmeg Drive, Trumbull, Connecticut. The firm currently employs dozens of attorneys who provide a full range of legal and advocacy services to clients operating in the United States.\n\n19. SDV has particular expertise in insurance coverage law. With its singular focus on policyholders, SDV offers comprehensive and experienced insurance coverage litigation services and risk management strategy to policyholders throughout the United States. SDV has more than twenty-five years of proven success in recovering hundreds of millions of dollars on\n\nbehalf of policyholders ranging from individuals, non-profit institutions, universities, hospitals, municipalities, utilities, small companies, and international corporations.\n\n20. Additionally, as a firm headquartered in Connecticut, SDV is particularly well suited to serve as special insurance coverage counsel in the case, as Genever (US)'s local counsel, Neubert, Pepe & Monteith, P.C. (\"NPM\"), also represents certain AIG entities in unrelated matters and, therefore, would not be able serve as local counsel to Genever (US) in the AIG Action. Thus, if Genever (US) were to retain insurance counsel located outside Connecticut, it would have to retain additional local counsel for conflicts purposes. Hiring SDV avoids hiring such additional counsel.\n\n## **ANTICIPATED SERVICES**\n\n21. Genever (US) anticipates that SDV will represent it with respect to insurance coverage advice for the losses sustained at the Apartment as well as any matters related to the AIG Action. Due to the specialized nature of the insurance coverage dispute, and given that Paul Hastings LLP will not represent Genever (US) with respect to the AIG Action, there will be no duplication of services arising from SDV's retention.\n\n### **COMPENSATION OF SDV**\n\n22. SDV intends to apply to the Court for compensation for professional services rendered and for reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with this Chapter 11 Case pursuant to sections 329 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, Local Bankruptcy Rule 2016-1, and any other applicable rules and orders with respect to this Chapter 11 Case. SDV will charge Genever (US) for its legal services on an hourly basis at its standard hourly rates in effect at the time the services are performed in connection with the services required in the AIG Action.\n\n23. At present, the hourly rates for SDV personnel range from \\$235.00 per hour for paralegal time, \\$325.00 to \\$475.00 per hour for associate work, and \\$575.00 to \\$975.00 for partner work. SDV will also bill for out-of-pocket expenses made on behalf of Genever (US), including photocopying, postage and package deliveries, court fees, transcripts, witness fees, service fees, travel expenses, and computer-aided research.\n\n24. Genever (US) submits that SDV's hourly rates are reasonable and within the range of rates charged by comparably skilled professionals who offer the same services.\n\n## **SDV IS DISINTERESTED4**\n\n25. To the best of Genever (US)'s knowledge in reliance upon the Clifford Declaration, and except as disclosed therein, SDV does not have any relationships with Genever (US), its creditors, or any other party-in-interest, their respective attorneys and accountants, the United States Trustee, or any person employed in the Office of the United States Trustee.\n\n26. More specifically, upon the basis of the Clifford Declaration, and except as disclosed therein, Genever (US) believes that: (a) SDV has no connection with Genever (US), its creditors, the U.S. Trustee, any person employed in the office of the U.S. Trustee, or any other party with an actual or potential interest in Genever (US) or its respective attorneys or accountants; and (b) SDV and its employees (i) are not a creditors, equity security holders, or insiders of Genever (US) or its affiliates, (ii) have not been, within two years before the Petition Date, a director, officer, or employee of Genever (US) or its affiliates, and (iii) has not had any interest materially adverse to the interests of the Genever (US)'s estate or any class of creditors or equity security holders by reason of any direct or indirect relationship to, connection with, or\n\n<sup>4</sup> While section 327(e) of the Bankruptcy Code does not require special counsel to be disinterested, SDV has nevertheless conducted a full conflicts analysis and disclosed any connections to parties in interest in Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case in the Clifford Declaration.\n\ninterest in Genever (US), or for any other reason. Therefore, Genever (US) believes that SDV is a \"disinterested person\" within the meaning of section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code, as modified by section 1107(b).\n\n27. Based on the Clifford Declaration, Genever (US) believes that SDV does not represent any adverse interest to unsecured creditors in connection with the Chapter 11 Case.\n\n## **BASIS FOR RELIEF REQUESTED**\n\n28. Genever (US) requests to retain and employ SDV as its special insurance coverage counsel with respect to the AIG Action pursuant to section 327(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, which provides that the debtor in possession \"may employ, for a specified special purpose, other than to represent the [debtor] in conducting the case, an attorney that has represented the debtor, if in the best interest of the estate, and if such attorney does not represent or hold any interest adverse to the debtor or to the estate with respect to the matter on which such attorney is to be employed.\" 11 U.S.C. § 327(e)\n\n29. Under section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, with bankruptcy court approval, a trustee may employ professional persons under section 327 of the Bankruptcy Code \"on any reasonable terms and conditions of employment, including on a retainer, on an hourly basis, on a fixed or percentage fee basis, or on a contingent fee basis.\" 11 U.S.C. § 328(a).\n\n30. Bankruptcy Rule 2014(a) provides that an application for retention include:\n\nspecific facts showing the necessity for the employment, the name of the [firm] to be employed, the reasons for the selection, the professional services to be rendered, any proposed arrangement for compensation, and, to the best of the applicant's knowledge, all of the [firm's] connections with the debtor, creditors, any other party in interest, their respective attorneys and accountants, the United States trustee.\n\n31. Genever (US) requires the services of special insurance coverage counsel with respect to the AIG Action. SDV will endeavor to avoid the duplication of efforts and provide services as efficiently as possible.\n\n32. Accordingly, the employment of SDV as Genever (US)'s special insurance coverage counsel, upon the terms set forth herein and in the Proposed Order, is reasonable and in the best interest of Genever (US)'s estate.\n\n33. Genever (US) submits that SDV' rates are reasonable, comparable to rates for other engagements, and within the range of rates charged by comparably skilled professionals who offer the same services.\n\n34. Local Bankruptcy Rule 2014-1 provides that if \"an application to employ a professional is filed within thirty (30) days after the commencement of services provided by that professional, the application shall be deemed contemporaneously filed unless the Court orders otherwise.\" Accordingly, Genever (US) requests authority to retain and employ SDV effective May 11, 2023, which was the date that SDV began providing services to the Genever (US).\n\n## **NOTICE**\n\n35. Notice of this Application has been given to the United States Trustee, Ho Wan Kwok (the \"Individual Debtor\"), the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the \"Committee\") in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case, and, by electronic filing utilizing the Court's electronic filing (\"CM/ECF\") system, to all appearing parties who utilize the CM/ECF system.\n\n## **NO PRIOR REQUEST**\n\n36. No previous application for the relief requested herein has been made to this or any other Court.\n\n[*Remainder of page intentionally left blank.*]\n\nWHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, Genever (US) requests that the Court enter an\n\nOrder, substantially in the form of the Proposed Order filed herewith, granting the Application, and authorizing Genever (US)'s employment of SDV as special insurance coverage counsel, and\n\norder such other and further relief as the Court deems just and proper.\n\nDated: June 5, 2023 Genever Holdings LLC\n\n*/s/ Luc A.

CLIFFORD IN SUPPORT OF APPLICATION OF GENEVER HOLDINGS LLC FOR ENTRY OF ORDER, PURSUANT TO BANKRUPTCY CODE SECTIONS 327(e), 328(a), AND 329(a), BANKRUPTCY RULES 2014 AND 2016, AND LOCAL BANKRUPTCY RULES 2014-1 AND 2016-1, AUTHORIZING AND APPROVING RETENTION AND EMPLOYMENT OF SAXE DOERNBERGER & VITA, P.C. AS SPECIAL INSURANCE COVRAGE COUNSEL**\n\nI, Brian J. Clifford, being duly sworn, do depose and say:\n\n1. I am an attorney admitted to practice law in the states of Connecticut,\n\nMassachusetts, New York, and Rhode Island. I am a partner at the law firm of Saxe Doernberger\n\n& Vita, P.C. (\"SDV\") at its Connecticut office at 35 Nutmeg Drive, Trumbull, Connecticut. I\n\nmake this declaration (the \"Declaration\") in support of the *Application of Genever Holdings LLC*\n\n*for Entry of Order, Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Sections 327(e), 328(a), and 329(a),*\n\n*Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Bankruptcy Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1, Authorizing*\n\n*and Approving Retention and Employment of Saxe Doernberger & Vita, P.C. as Special*\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*Insurance Coverage Counsel* (the \"Application\")2 with respect to AIG Action, and related matters (the \"Engagement\").\n\n2. In relation to the Engagement, SDV's professional client is the estate (the \"Estate\") of Genever Holdings LLC (\"Genever (US)\") in its above-captioned chapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\"). In relation to the Engagement, SDV will seek to recover SDV's fees from the Estate, and I will file fee applications in the Chapter 11 Case on behalf of SDV.\n\n3. I received my law degree at the Western New England College of Law in 2010. My experience encompasses over a decade of coverage, litigation, and trial experience in multiple jurisdictions. I advocate for and advise clients on a broad range of matters involving general liability, excess, property, and professional liability policies. Additionally, I have handled claims involving a variety of first and third-party losses.\n\n4. I will file applications on behalf of SDV for compensation of professional services rendered and for reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with the Engagement pursuant to sections 329 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, Local Bankruptcy Rule 2016-1, and any other applicable rules and orders with respect to this Chapter 11 Case.\n\n5. At present, the hourly rates for SDV personnel range from \\$235.00 per hour for paralegal time, \\$325.00 to \\$475.00 per hour for associate work, and \\$575.00 to \\$975.00 for partner work. SDV may also bill the Estate for any out-of-pocket expenses made on behalf of the Genever (US), including photocopying, postage and package deliveries, court fees, transcripts, witness fees, service fees, travel expenses, and computer-aided research.\n\n<sup>2</sup> Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Application.\n\n6. To the best of my knowledge and belief after due inquiry, SDV is a \"disinterested person\" within the meaning of section 101(14) of title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\") in that SDV, and each of SDV's lawyers:\n\n- a. are not creditors, equity security holders, or insiders of Genever (US);\n- b. are not, and were not within two years before the date of filing of Genever (US)'s petition, directors, officers, or employees of Genever (US); and\n- c. do not have an interest materially adverse to the interest of Genever (US)'s estate or of any class of creditors or equity security holders, by reason of any direct or indirect relationship to, connection with, or interest in, Genever (US), or for any other reason.\n\n7. I attach to this Declaration, as Schedule 1, a consolidated list of parties in interest in connection with the Chapter 11 Case (the \"Interested Parties\") that has been produced by Genever (US) and provided to SDV before my signing this Declaration that I am informed includes:\n\n- a. parties listed as creditors, executory contract counterparties, and codebtors on the Individual Debtor's Schedules D, F, G, and H [Docket No. 78];\n- b. parties listed on the Individual Debtor's Statement of Financial Affairs (\"SOFA\") [Docket No. 77], including (i) as recipients of payments within 90 days prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case (SOFA Part 3, Question 6); (ii) parties involved in litigation in which the Individual Debtor is a party (SOFA Part 4, Question 9); and businesses owned by the Individual Debtor (SOFA Part 11, Question 27);\n\nc. parties and counsel filing notice of appearances in the Chapter 11 Case;\n\n- d. the Court and personnel of the office of the United States Trustee; and\n- e. other parties in interest that I have become aware of as a result of the Chapter 11 Trustee's ongoing investigation of the Individual Debtor's assets.\n\n8. SDV has conducted reasonable checks of the Interested Parties against our records and data, and has determined that to the best of our knowledge and belief, neither SDV nor any of the firm's lawyers has any relationship or connection with the Interested Parties, or, to the best of my knowledge, with any other creditor of Genever (US).3\n\n9. While SDV has made a diligent effort to ascertain the identity of any connections or potential conflicts with the Interested Parties, to the extent that any additional information comes to light, I will review, disclose, and resolve any conflict or adverse interests that may appear.\n\n10. Based on the foregoing, insofar as I have been able to ascertain based on the information currently available to me: (a) SDV and each of its lawyers have no connection with Genever US, its creditors, the U.S. Trustee, any person employed in the office of the U.S. Trustee, or any other party with an actual or potential interest in Genever (US) or its respective attorneys or accountants; and (b) (i) SDV and each of its lawyers are not creditors, equity security holders, or insiders of Genever (US) or its affiliates, (ii) SDV and each of its lawyers have not been, within two years before the Petition Date, a director, officer, or employee of Genever (US) or its affiliates, and (iii) neither SDV nor its lawyers have any interest materially\n\n<sup>3</sup> The only potential exception is that SDV had previously represented a Min Yang in an unrelated matter. However, it is unclear whether the Min Yang that SDV previously represented is the same Min Yang listed among the Interested Parties, but SDV is nevertheless disclosing this connection out of an abundance of caution.\n\nadverse to the interests of Genever (US)'s estate or any class of creditors or equity security holders by reason of any direct or indirect relationship to, connection with, or interest in Genever (US), or for any other reason. Therefore, I understand from my discussions with Genever (US) that this means SDV is a \"disinterested person\" within the meaning of section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code, as modified by section 1107(b).\n\n11. Genever (US) intends to comply with the U.S. Trustee's requests for information and additional disclosures set forth in Appendix B of the U.S. Trustee Guidelines (the \"Larger Case Guidelines\") in connection with the interim and final fee applications to be filed in the Chapter 11 Case (insofar as is consistent with the duties that SDV owes to the court and to its professional and lay clients). To the extent necessary, SDV requests a waiver for cause shown of any requirements not met by this Application.\n\n12. In connection with the Larger Case Guidelines, I provide the following response on behalf of SDV to the request for information set forth in Paragraph D.1. of the Larger Case Guidelines:\n\n- Question: Did you agree to any variations from, or alternatives to, your standard or customary billing arrangements for this engagement?\n- Answer: No.\n- Question: Do any of the professionals included in this engagement vary their rate based on the geographic location of the bankruptcy case?\n- Answer: No.\n- Question: If you represented the client in the 12 months prepetition, disclose your billing rates and material financial terms for the prepetition engagement, including any adjustments during the 12 months prepetition. If your billing rates and material financial terms have changed postpetition, explain the difference and the reasons for the difference.\n- Answer: Not applicable. SDV has not previously represented Genever (US).\n- Question: Has your client approved your prospective budget and staffing plan, and, if so, for what budget period?\n\nAnswer: Not applicable.\n\n13. I have neither shared nor agreed to share with any other person compensation\n\nreceived in connection with the Engagement, except as is permitted by §504(b)(1) of the\n\nBankruptcy Code.\n\n14. I consent that the following language may be included in any order by the Court\n\napproving Genever (US)'s application in connection with my instruction in connection with the\n\nEngagement.\n\nAllowance of any compensation for SDV shall be limited to the extent of services actually performed, and expenses actually incurred, as special insurance coverage counsel instructed to act on behalf of Genever (US).\n\nPursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, I declare under penalty of perjury that the above statements\n\nare true and correct.\n\nDated: June 5, 2023, at Trumbull, Connecticut, United States\n\nBrian J.

Clifford（布赖恩·J·克利福德）关于支持 Genever Holdings LLC 根据《破产法典》第327(e)、328和329条、《破产程序规则》第2014条和第2016条以及《地方破产程序规则》第2014-1条和第2016-1条申请作出命令，授权并批准聘用 Saxe Doernberger & Vita, P.C. 担任特别保险承保范围法律顾问的声明》（“Clifford 声明”），该声明通过援引并入本文。\n\n2 为明确起见，Luc Despins 未曾代理 AIG，且就 AIG 而言不存在利益冲突。\n\n管辖权、审判地及法定依据\n\n4. 法院根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 以及美国康涅狄格州联邦地区法院作出的移送常设命令，对本事项具有管辖权。本事项属于 28 U.S.C. § 157(b) 所规定的核心程序。\n\n5. 根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409，本地区为适格审判地。\n\n6. 本申请所请求救济的法定依据为《破产法典》第327(e)、328(a)和329(a)条，以及在适用范围内的《破产规则》第2014条和第2016条及《地方破产规则》第2014-1条和第2016-1条。\n\n背景\n\nA. Genever (US) 的第11章案件\n\n7. On October 12, 2020，Genever (US) 向美国纽约南区联邦破产法院（“SDNY Bankruptcy Court”）根据《美国法典》第11编第11章提交了自愿救济申请，从而启动案件编号 20-12411 (JLG)。参见第11章申请 [Case No. 22-50592 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 1]。\n\n8. 尚未在 Genever (US) 的案件中指定受托人或审查员。\n\n9. Genever (US) 拥有位于 781 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10022 的 Sherry-Netherland（谢里-内瑟兰大厦，以下简称“Sherry-Netherland”）内由整个第18层组成的公寓空间（“该公寓”），以及 Apartment MR 2219 和 Apartment MR 719（与该公寓合称“受保住宅”）。\n\n10. On November 3, 2022，SDNY Bankruptcy Court 作出命令，将 Genever (US) 的第11章案件审判地移送至本法院。参见《准许 (A) Genever Holdings LLC 及 (B) Luc A. Despins 作为 Ho Wan Kwok 财产第11章受托人根据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408, and 1412 and Bankruptcy Rule 1014(a) 将 Genever Holdings LLC 第11章案件审判地移送至康涅狄格州破产法院的联合动议的备忘录决定及命令》[Case No. 22-50592 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 225]。\n\n11. Ho Wan Kwok、Genever (US) 和 Genever Holdings Corporation（“Genever (BVI)”）的第11章案件目前仅为程序目的而在本法院合并管理。参见 Case No. 22-50073 (JAM) 中的 Docket No. 1141。\n\nB. AIG 保险单及 AIG 诉讼的提起3\n\n12. On March 6, 2015，Genever (US) 与作为合作住房公司的 Sherry-Netherland 签订了专有租赁协议（“专有租赁协议”）；Genever (US) 通过该公司拥有若干股份，该等股份被分配给 Genever (US) 租赁的各公寓。\n\n13. 根据专有租赁协议的条款，Genever (US) 向 AIG 购买了超过 $28 million 的财产保险承保范围，以保护受保住宅及其中的贵重财产。Genever (US) 购买的保险使 AIG 负有义务，就 Genever (US) 可能遭受的“全险”财产损失进行赔付，但明确排除的损失除外。此外，Genever (US) 向 AIG 购买的保险还为因其拥有受保住宅而产生的索赔提供责任保险承保范围。AIG 向 Genever (US) 出售的财产及责任保险单下文统称为“AIG 保险单”。\n\n14. On March 15, 2023，当一场火灾发生时（“该火灾”），Genever (US) 在该公寓遭受损失。由于该火灾，Genever (US) 的公寓及其中财产遭受实体损害。\n\n3 有关 AIG 保险单及导致提起 AIG 诉讼的事件的详细摘要，参见在 AIG 诉讼中提交的起诉状 [Adv. Proc. No. 23-5007 中的 Docket No. 1]。\n\n15. On April 25, 2023，在没有任何迹象表明 AIG 已完成其对该火灾调查的情况下，AIG 出具了“保险取消通知”（“取消通知”），声称取消 AIG 保险单。\n\n16. 在收到取消通知后，受托人根据 Genever (BVI) 授予的代理权，选定 SDV 代表 Genever (US) 处理保险承保范围争议，包括 AIG 诉讼。\n\n17. On May 12, 2023，Genever (US) 提起 AIG 诉讼，请求的救济包括：(i) 禁止 AIG 取消 AIG 保险单；(ii) 宣告 AIG 必须根据 AIG 保险单提供承保；(iii) 宣告 AIG 不得取消 March 6, 2023 至 March 6, 2024 保险期间的 AIG 保险单，且 AIG 的取消通知在纽约保险法下不具备法律充分性；(iv) 判令 AIG 因违约向 Genever (US) 支付补偿性损害赔偿；(v) 判令 AIG 向 Genever (US) 立即支付为保护其利益、使该公寓可供出售并限制因该火灾产生的 Genever (US) 第三方索赔所必需的紧急清理措施的保险赔款；以及 (vi) 判令 AIG 支付惩罚性损害赔偿和/或实施制裁。\n\nSDV 的资格\n\n18. SDV 是一家主要办事处位于 35 Nutmeg Drive, Trumbull, Connecticut 的律师事务所。该事务所目前聘有数十名律师，为在美国经营的客户提供全方位法律及诉讼代理服务。\n\n19. SDV 在保险承保范围法方面具有特别专业知识。SDV 专注于保单持有人，为全美国的保单持有人提供全面且经验丰富的保险承保范围诉讼服务及风险管理策略。SDV 在过去二十五年多中已取得经证实的成功，代表保单持有人追回数亿美元；该等保单持有人包括个人、非营利机构、大学、医院、市政当局、公用事业机构、小型公司及国际公司。\n\n20. 此外，作为一家总部位于康涅狄格州的律师事务所，SDV 特别适合在本案中担任特别保险承保范围法律顾问，因为 Genever (US) 的本地法律顾问 Neubert, Pepe & Monteith, P.C.（“NPM”）亦在无关事项中代理某些 AIG 实体，因此不能在 AIG 诉讼中担任 Genever (US) 的本地法律顾问。因此，如 Genever (US) 聘用位于康涅狄格州以外的保险法律顾问，则其须为避免利益冲突而另行聘用本地法律顾问。聘用 SDV 可避免聘用该等额外法律顾问。\n\n预期服务\n\n21. Genever (US) 预计 SDV 将就该公寓遭受损失的保险承保范围提供意见，并处理与 AIG 诉讼有关的任何事项。鉴于保险承保范围争议的专业性质，并且 Paul Hastings LLP 不会就 AIG 诉讼代理 Genever (US)，聘用 SDV 不会导致服务重复。\n\nSDV 的报酬\n\n22. SDV 拟根据《破产法典》第329条和第331条、《破产规则》第2016条、《地方破产规则》第2016-1条，以及有关本第11章案件的任何其他适用规则和命令，向法院申请就本第11章案件提供的专业服务获得报酬，并报销所发生的费用。SDV 将按其在提供 AIG 诉讼所需服务时有效的标准小时费率，就其法律服务按小时向 Genever (US) 收费。\n\n23. 目前，SDV 人员的小时费率范围为：律师助理工作每小时 $235.00，初级律师工作每小时 $325.00 至 $475.00，合伙人工作每小时 $575.00 至 $975.00。SDV 还将就代表 Genever (US) 支付的实付费用收费，包括复印费、邮资和包裹递送费、法院费用、庭审记录费用、证人费用、送达费用、差旅费用及计算机辅助检索费用。\n\n24. Genever (US) 主张，SDV 的小时费率合理，且处于提供相同服务的具备相当技能专业人士所收取费率的范围内。\n\nSDV 无利害关系4\n\n25. 据 Genever (US) 基于 Clifford 声明所知，并除其中披露者外，SDV 与 Genever (US)、其债权人或任何其他利益相关方、彼等各自的律师和会计师、美国受托人，或任何受雇于美国受托人办公室的人员之间不存在任何关系。\n\n26. 更具体而言，根据 Clifford 声明，除其中所披露者外，Genever (US) 认为：(a) SDV 与 Genever (US)、其债权人、美国受托人、美国受托人办公室雇用的任何人员，或对 Genever (US) 具有实际或潜在利益的任何其他方，或其各自的律师或会计师，均无任何关联；以及 (b) SDV 及其雇员 (i) 并非 Genever (US) 或其关联方的债权人、股权证券持有人或内部人，(ii) 在申请日之前两年内，未曾担任 Genever (US) 或其关联方的董事、高管或雇员，以及 (iii) 因与 Genever (US) 的任何直接或间接关系、联系或利益，或因任何其他原因，未持有任何与 Genever (US) 财产或任何类别债权人或股权证券持有人利益存在重大不利冲突的利益。因此，Genever (US) 认为，经第 1107(b) 条修正后，SDV 属于《破产法》第 101(14) 条所称的“无利害关系人”。\n\n4 虽然《破产法》第 327(e) 条并不要求特别律师为无利害关系人，但 SDV 仍进行了全面的利益冲突分析，并在 Clifford 声明中披露了其与 Genever (US) 第 11 章案件利害关系方的任何关联。\n\n27. 根据 Clifford 声明，Genever (US) 认为，SDV 就第 11 章案件而言并不代表任何与无担保债权人相冲突的利益。\n\n请求救济的依据\n\n28. Genever (US) 请求依据《破产法》第 327(e) 条，聘任 SDV 担任其就 AIG 诉讼的特别保险承保范围律师；该条规定，占有中的债务人“如为财产之最佳利益，并且该律师就其受聘处理的事项不代表或持有与债务人或财产相冲突的任何利益，则可为特定的特别目的，而非代表[债务人]进行案件处理，聘任曾代理该债务人的律师。”11 U.S.C. § 327(e)\n\n29. 根据《破产法》第 328(a) 条，经破产法院批准，受托人可根据《破产法》第 327 条“按任何合理的聘用条款和条件聘用专业人员，包括按预付聘金、按小时、按固定费用或百分比费用，或按风险代理费的方式。”11 U.S.C. § 328(a)。\n\n30. 《破产规则》第 2014(a) 条规定，聘任申请应包括：\n\n表明聘用必要性的具体事实、拟聘用的[律所]名称、选定理由、将提供的专业服务、任何拟议的报酬安排，以及据申请人所知，[律所]与债务人、债权人、任何其他利害关系方、其各自律师和会计师及美国受托人的全部关联。\n\n31. Genever (US) 就 AIG 诉讼需要特别保险承保范围律师提供服务。SDV 将努力避免重复工作，并尽可能高效地提供服务。\n\n32. 因此，按照本申请及拟议命令所载条款聘用 SDV 担任 Genever (US) 的特别保险承保范围律师，属合理且符合 Genever (US) 财产的最佳利益。\n\n33. Genever (US) 主张，SDV 的费率合理，与其他委聘的费率相当，并处于提供相同服务且具备相当技能的专业人士所收取费率的范围内。\n\n34. 地方破产规则第 2014-1 条规定，如“聘用专业人员的申请在该专业人员开始提供服务后三十（30）日内提交，除非法院另有命令，该申请应视为同期提交。”因此，Genever (US) 请求授权其自 May 11, 2023 起聘任 SDV，该日为 SDV 开始向 Genever (US) 提供服务之日。\n\n通知\n\n35. 本申请的通知已送达美国受托人、Ho Wan Kwok（郭文贵）（“个人债务人”）、个人债务人第 11 章案件中的无担保债权人官方委员会（“委员会”），并通过法院电子申报（“CM/ECF”）系统进行电子申报，送达所有使用 CM/ECF 系统出庭的当事方。\n\n无先前请求\n\n36. 此前未曾向本院或任何其他法院提出过请求本申请所请求救济的申请。\n\n[本页其余部分特意留白。]\n\n因此，基于上述理由，Genever (US) 请求法院作出一项命令，其形式应基本符合随附提交的拟议命令，准许本申请，并授权 Genever (US) 聘用 SDV 担任特别保险承保范围律师，以及\n\n给予法院认为公正和适当的其他及进一步救济。\n\n日期：June 5, 2023 Genever Holdings LLC（Genever控股有限责任公司）\n\n/s/ Luc A.

CLIFFORD（布赖恩·J·克利福德）为支持 GENEVER HOLDINGS LLC（吉尼弗控股有限责任公司）提出申请而作的声明；该申请请求根据《破产法典》第 327(e)、328(a) 和 329(a) 条、《破产规则》第 2014 条和第 2016 条以及当地《破产规则》第 2014-1 条和第 2016-1 条，作出命令，授权并批准聘任 SAXE DOERNBERGER & VITA, P.C.（Saxe Doernberger & Vita 专业公司）担任特别保险保障法律顾问\n\n本人 Brian J. Clifford，经依法宣誓，特此声明如下：\n\n1. 本人是在 Connecticut（康涅狄格州）、Massachusetts（马萨诸塞州）、New York（纽约州）和 Rhode Island（罗得岛州）获准执业的律师。本人为 Saxe Doernberger & Vita, P.C.（“SDV”）律师事务所的合伙人，任职于该所位于 Connecticut 州 Trumbull（特朗布尔）35 Nutmeg Drive 的办公室。本人作出本声明（“本声明”），以支持 Genever Holdings LLC 提出的申请；该申请请求根据《破产法典》第 327(e)、328(a) 和 329(a) 条、《破产规则》第 2014 条和第 2016 条以及当地《破产规则》第 2014-1 条和第 2016-1 条，作出命令，授权并批准聘任 Saxe Doernberger & Vita, P.C. 担任特别保险保障法律顾问（“本申请”）2，就 AIG 诉讼及相关事项（“本委任”）提供服务。\n\n1. 本第 11 章案件中的债务人为 Ho Wan Kwok（亦称 Guo Wengui、Miles Guo 和 Miles Kwok，以及众多其他别名）（税务识别号码后四位：9595）、Genever Holdings LLC（税务识别号码后四位：8202）及 Genever Holdings Corporation（吉尼弗控股公司）。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC 和 Genever Holdings Corporation 的邮寄地址为 Paul Hastings LLP（保罗·黑斯廷斯律师事务所），200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166，转交 Luc A. Despins，作为 Ho Wan Kwok 财产的受托人（仅为通知和通信之目的）。\n\n2. 就本委任而言，SDV 的专业客户为 Genever Holdings LLC（“Genever (US)”）在上述第 11 章案件（“第 11 章案件”）中的财产（“财产”）。就本委任而言，SDV 将请求由该财产支付 SDV 的费用，本人将代表 SDV 在第 11 章案件中提交费用申请。\n\n3. 本人于 2010 年在 Western New England College of Law（西新英格兰法学院）取得法学学位。本人拥有逾十年的保险保障、诉讼和审判经验，执业范围涵盖多个司法辖区。本人就涉及一般责任、超额责任、财产和专业责任保险单的广泛事项，为客户进行辩护并提供法律意见。此外，本人还处理过涉及各种第一方和第三方损失的索赔。\n\n4. 本人将代表 SDV，根据《破产法典》第 329 条和第 331 条、《破产规则》第 2016 条、当地《破产规则》第 2016-1 条以及适用于本第 11 章案件的任何其他规则和命令，就因本委任提供的专业服务申请报酬，并就发生的费用申请偿还。\n\n5. 目前，SDV 人员的小时费率范围为：律所助理每小时 \\$235.00，助理律师每小时 \\$325.00 至 \\$475.00，合伙人每小时 \\$575.00 至 \\$975.00。SDV 亦可就代表 Genever (US) 支付的任何实际支出向该财产收费，包括复印费、邮资和包裹递送费、法院费用、庭审记录费、证人费、送达费、差旅费和计算机辅助研究费。\n\n2. 本申请中使用但未另行定义的首字母大写术语，具有本申请中规定的含义。\n\n6. 经适当查询后，据本人所知和所信，SDV 符合《美国法典》第 11 编第 101(14) 条（“《破产法典》”）所称的“无利害关系人”，因为 SDV 及 SDV 的每位律师：\n\na. 均非 Genever (US) 的债权人、股权证券持有人或内部人；\n\nb. 均不是且在 Genever (US) 提交申请之日前两年内亦不是 Genever (US) 的董事、高级职员或雇员；以及\n\nc. 均不因与 Genever (US) 的任何直接或间接关系、联系或权益，或因任何其他原因，而对 Genever (US) 财产或任何类别债权人或股权证券持有人的利益持有实质性不利的利益。\n\n7. 本人将一份与第 11 章案件有关的利害关系方（“利害关系方”）综合名单作为附表 1 附于本声明；该名单由 Genever (US) 编制，并在本人签署本声明前提供给 SDV，据本人获悉，该名单包括：\n\na. 在个人债务人的附表 D、F、G 和 H 中列为债权人、待履行合同相对方和共同债务人的各方［案卷编号 78］；\n\nb. 列于个人债务人《财务状况说明书》（“SOFA”）［案卷编号 77］的各方，包括：(i) 在第 11 章案件提交前 90 日内收取付款者（SOFA 第 3 部分，第 6 问）；(ii) 个人债务人作为一方当事人参加的诉讼所涉各方（SOFA 第 4 部分，第 9 问）；以及个人债务人拥有的企业（SOFA 第 11 部分，第 27 问）；\n\nc. 在第 11 章案件中提交出庭通知的各方及其律师；\n\nd. 本法院及美国受托人办公室人员；以及\n\ne. 因第 11 章受托人持续调查个人债务人的资产而为本人所知悉的其他利害关系方。\n\n8. SDV 已对照本所记录和数据，对利害关系方进行了合理核查，并已确定，据本所所知和所信，SDV 或本所任何律师均与利害关系方不存在任何关系或联系，且据本人所知，亦与 Genever (US) 的任何其他债权人不存在任何关系或联系。3\n\n9. 尽管 SDV 已尽力查明与利害关系方的任何联系或潜在利益冲突，但如有任何补充信息出现，本人将审查、披露并解决可能出现的任何利益冲突或不利利益。\n\n10. 根据上述情况，并以本人根据目前可获得的信息所能查明的范围为限：(a) SDV 及其每位律师与 Genever US、其债权人、美国受托人、受雇于美国受托人办公室的任何人员，或对 Genever (US) 或其各自律师或会计师具有实际或潜在利益的任何其他方，均不存在任何联系；以及 (b) (i) SDV 及其每位律师均非 Genever (US) 或其关联方的债权人、股权证券持有人或内部人，(ii) SDV 及其每位律师在申请日之前两年内均未担任 Genever (US) 或其关联方的董事、高级职员或雇员，且 (iii) SDV 及其律师均不因与 Genever (US) 的任何直接或间接关系、联系或权益，或因任何其他原因，而对 Genever (US) 财产或任何类别债权人或股权证券持有人的利益持有实质性不利的利益。因此，本人根据与 Genever (US) 的讨论理解，这意味着 SDV 是经第 1107(b) 条修正的《破产法典》第 101(14) 条所称的“无利害关系人”。\n\n3. 唯一可能的例外是，SDV 曾在一项无关事项中代理过一名 Min Yang（杨敏）。然而，尚不清楚 SDV 此前代理的 Min Yang 是否与利害关系方名单中所列的 Min Yang 为同一人，但出于审慎考虑，SDV 仍披露该联系。\n\n11. Genever (US) 拟就将在第 11 章案件中提交的中期和最终费用申请，遵守《美国受托人指引》附录 B 所载美国受托人的信息请求和补充披露要求（“大型案件指引”）（以符合 SDV 对法院及其专业客户和非专业客户所负义务的范围为限）。如有必要，SDV 请求对本申请未满足的任何要求，基于所示理由予以豁免。\n\n12. 就大型案件指引而言，本人代表 SDV 就大型案件指引第 D.1 段所载的信息请求作出如下答复：\n\n问题：对于本委任，您是否同意偏离或替代您标准或惯常的收费安排的任何安排？\n\n答复：否。\n\n问题：本委任中包括的任何专业人员是否会根据破产案件的地理位置调整其费率？\n\n答复：否。\n\n问题：如果您在申请前 12 个月内代理过客户，请披露申请前委任的收费费率和重要财务条款，包括申请前 12 个月内的任何调整。如果您的收费费率和重要财务条款在申请后发生变化，请说明差异及其原因。\n\n答复：不适用。SDV 此前未代理 Genever (US)。\n\n问题：您的客户是否已批准您拟定的预算和人员配置计划；如已批准，适用何种预算期间？\n\n答复：不适用。\n\n13. 除《破产法典》§504(b)(1) 允许者外，本人既未与任何其他人分成，也未同意与任何其他人分成本委任相关所收取的报酬。\n\n14. 本人同意，本法院就 Genever (US) 与本人就本委任所受指示相关的申请作出的任何批准命令中，可载入以下文字。\n\n对 SDV 的任何报酬许可，应限于其作为获委任代表 Genever (US) 行事的特别保险保障法律顾问实际提供的服务和实际发生的费用。\n\n根据 28 U.S.C. § 1746，本人特此在伪证处罚下声明，上述陈述真实且正确。\n\n日期：June 5, 2023，地点：美国 Connecticut 州 Trumbull\n\nBrian J.
