Despins, as Trustee for the Estate of Ho Wan Kwok (solely for purposes of notices and communications).\n\n*Period from December 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024* (the \"Application\"). By this Application, Pallas requests interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from December 1, 2024 through and including April 30, 2024 (the \"Application Period\") in these chapter 11 cases. In support of this Application, Pallas respectfully states as follows:\n\n## **JURISDICTION, VENUE, BASES FOR RELIEF, AND COMPLIANCE**\n\n1. 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 matter is a core proceeding within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2). Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.\n\n2. The legal predicates for the relief requested herein are sections 328, 330, and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, and Local Rule 2016-1.\n\n3. Pallas believes that this Application, together with the attachments hereto, substantially complies with the Bankruptcy Rules, Local Rule 2016-1, and the *United States Trustee's Guidelines for Reviewing Applications for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses Filed Under 11 U.S.C. § 330 by Attorneys in Larger Chapter 11 Cases* (the \"U.S. Trustee Guidelines\").2 Pallas respectfully requests a waiver of any of the foregoing requirements not met by this Application.\n\n- 4. Attached and incorporated herein by reference are the following Exhibits:\n\t- **Exhibit A** contains the Proposed Order granting this Application.\n\t- **Exhibit B** is a timekeeper summary that includes the name, title, bar admission, hourly billing rate, aggregate hours, and amount of fees earned for each Pallas individual who provided services during the Application Period;\n\n2 Pallas reserves all rights as to the relevance and substantive legal effect of the U.S. Trustee Guidelines with respect to any application for compensation in these chapter 11 cases.\n\n- **Exhibit C** is a summary of expenses incurred and reimbursement sought, by expense type, during the Application Period; and\n- **Exhibit D** contains the detail of the fees and expenses incurred during the Application Period.\n\n### **BACKGROUND**\n\n5. On February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\"), the Individual Debtor filed a voluntary petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (Bridgeport Division) (the \"Court\").\n\n6. On March 21, 2022, the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the \"Committee\") in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case. No examiner has been appointed in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case.\n\n7. On June 15, 2022, the Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [ECF\n\nNo. 465] (the \"Trustee Order\") directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case.\n\n8. Pursuant to the Trustee Order, the United States Trustee selected Luc A. Despins as the Trustee. On July 8, 2022, the Court entered an order granting the appointment of Luc A. Despins as the Trustee in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case\n\n9. By order entered March 24, 2023, the Court authorized Pallas' retention as solicitor in the United Kingdom for the Trustee [ECF No. 1596] (the \"Retention Order\") effective as of January 26, 2022 in the Debtor's chapter 11 case. The Retention Order authorizes Pallas to be compensated on an hourly basis and reimbursed for actual and necessary out-ofpocket expenses pursuant to sections 328 and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and such orders as the Court may direct.\n\n10. On August 18, 2023, the Court entered the Interim Compensation Procedures Order, which, among other things, approves procedures for the payment of 80% of fees and 100% of expenses on a monthly basis.\n\n11. On December 27, 2024, Pallas filed its *First Interim Fee Application of Pallas Partners LLP, as Solicitors in United Kingdom, for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses for Period From January 26, 2023 Through November 30, 2023* [Docket No. 2475] (the \"First Interim Fee Application\"), requesting interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from January 26, 2023 through and including November 30, 2023 in these chapter 11 cases. On January 24, 2024, the Court granted the First Interim Fee Application.\n\n### **ALLOWANCE REQUEST**\n\n12. The Applicant is applying for compensation pursuant to Sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code for legal services performed for the Trustee during the Application Period.\n\n13. For the Application Period, the Applicant seeks allowance of \\$107,271.50 as compensation for services rendered and allowance and reimbursement of \\$875.63 in expenses incurred in connection with such services. The Applicant devoted 111.1 hours to this case during the Application Period, equating to an overall blended rate of \\$965.54.\n\n14. Throughout the Application Period, the Applicant maintained records to indicate the name of each attorney or paraprofessional working on this matter, the time spent on a particular issue, and the nature of the work performed. These records, which describe in detail the services rendered by the Applicant, were created at the approximate time the services were performed.\n\n15. Annexed hereto and made a part hereof as **Exhibit D** is a detailed billing report, upon which this application is based that contains each individual professional's time for the\n\nDebtors' bankruptcy cases, itemizing the dates upon which services were rendered, including a summary of the services on each of such dates by each person rendering the service, the time spent in rendering such service, and the dollar value of such services.\n\n### **Summary of Services Rendered**\n\n16. Upon being formally instructed, Pallas was asked to provide detailed and strategic advice in connection with the English litigation proceedings (the \"UBS Action\") brought by the Individual Debtor, Ace Decade Holdings Limited (\"Second Claimant\") and Dawn State Limited (\"Third Claimant\") against UBS AG (the \"Defendant\") (Case CL-2020-000345), which litigation claims constitute property of the Individual Debtor's estate.\n\n17. During the Fee Period, Pallas has been continuing to advise the Trustee on several matters related to the UBS Action, including advising the Trustee on the most cost-efficient ways to maximize value from the UBS Action for the benefit of the Individual Debtor's estate and its creditors.\n\n18. In order to achieve the Trustee's objective of maximizing value for the benefit of the creditors, Pallas has remained focused on advising the Trustee on the process of obtaining control of the Second and Third Claimants for the purposes of the UBS Action. This has required providing advice generally as to matters of English law, including regarding the Trustee's rights and duties as chapter 11 trustee and his ability to seek recognition of foreign court judgments and orders in England in order to be in a position to take control of the UBS Action and realize value from the litigation for the benefit of the creditors. This has also involved liaising with counsel regarding the relevant and necessary relief which needs to be sought in the US and BVI courts in order to persuade the English court to recognize the Trustee's control.\n\n19. To that end, following substantial correspondence and the Second and Third Claimants' refusal to accept the Trustee's control of the companies, we spent substantial time working on the stay application. After this application was brought in December 2023, we were involved in reviewing the response from the Second and Third Claimants and preparing our reply evidence, as well as liaising with counsel in preparing for the stay application hearing listed in March 2024. Upon receipt of our reply evidence, the Second and Third Claimants agreed to consent to a stay. As a consequence, it was no longer necessary to proceed with the application and the listed hearing.\n\n20. The work undertaken by Pallas to date has therefore involved significant work on the substantial stay application, in particular finalizing the application, reviewing the Second and Third Claimant's responsive evidence and preparing our reply evidence, as well as ongoing attention to the relief being sought in the US and BVI courts which is relevant to the relief which must be sought in England in order to obtain control of the Second and Third Claimants and maximize value for the creditors of the Individual Debtor's estate. Pallas has also focused on *inter partes* correspondence and providing strategic input to the Trustee. This work remains ongoing, with Pallas continuing to follow progress on the necessary US and BVI steps and Pallas is currently liaising with the Second and Third Claimants to seek an extension to the stay application.\n\n### **No Prior Application**\n\n21. No prior application for the relief requested has been made.\n\n### **Legal Authority for Compensation**\n\n22. All of the professional services for which this award is being sought hereby were rendered solely on behalf of the Trustee in connection with the chapter 11 cases herein.\n\n23. Applicant respectfully submits that its services have benefited the Trustee with the expertise and skill required in the handling of bankruptcy matters. The legal services for which such compensation is requested were performed for and on behalf of the Trustee. Such services have been necessary to protect and enforce the rights and interests of the Trustee in connection with these chapter 11 cases. The reasonable value of services rendered by Pallas in these cases is based upon Pallas' usual hourly rates for matters of this nature.\n\n24. Section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code prescribes the general standards for determining the amount of compensation to be paid to professionals. The Applicant submits that the amount sought for the Application Period represents reasonable compensation for professional services rendered based upon the time spent, the nature, the extent, and the value of such services, taking into account the cost of comparable services in a non-bankruptcy case.\n\n25. Section 331 of the Bankruptcy Code provides for interim compensation of professionals and incorporates the substantive standards of section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code to govern the Court's award of such compensation. Section 330(a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that, after notice and a hearing, the Court may award a professional employed under 11 U.S.C. § 327 \"reasonable compensation for actual, necessary services rendered\" and \"reimbursement for actual, necessary expenses.\" 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(1).3\n\n26. In determining the amount of \"reasonable compensation,\" the Court must consider the nature, extent, and value of the services, taking into account all the relevant factors, including the time spent on such services, the rates charged for such services, whether the services were necessary and beneficial, whether the services were performed in a reasonable\n\n3 Under section 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, with bankruptcy court approval, a trustee may employ professional persons under section 327(a) 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\namount of time commensurate with the complexity, importance, and nature of the problem, issue, or task addressed, and whether the compensation is reasonable based on the customary compensation charged by comparably skilled practitioners in cases other than cases under the Bankruptcy Code. See 11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(3). The Court enjoys \"considerable discretion in determining reasonable fee awards.\" *In re Ahead Communication Systems, Inc.*, 395 B.R. 512 (D. Conn. 2008).\n\n27. In assessing the \"reasonableness\" of the fees requested, the Second Circuit has stated that courts should consider the factors enumerated in *Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc.*, 4 while also incorporating the \"lodestar method.\" *See Arbor Hill Concerned Citizens Neighborhood Ass'n v. County of Albany and Albany County Bd. of Elections*, 522 F.3d 182, 190 (2d Cir. 2007) (*citing Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc.*, 488 F.2d 714 (5th Cir.1974), *abrogated on other grounds* by *Blanchard v. Bergeron*, 489 U.S. 87, 92–93, 96 (1989)). The \"lodestar method\" of calculating the reasonable fee contemplates \"the number of hours reasonably expended . . . multiplied by a reasonable hourly rate.\" *See Hensley v. Eckerhart*, 461 U.S. 424, 433 (1983); *Gisbrecht v. Barnhart*, 535 U.S. 789, 801 (2002); *Perdue v. Kenny A.*, 130 S.Ct. 1662, 1672 (2010); *In re Drexel Burnham Lambert Grp., Inc.*, 133 B.R. 13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1991). The factors set forth in *Johnson* and *In re First Colonial Corp. of Am.*, 544 F.2d 1291, 1298–99 (5th Cir. 1977) have been adopted by most courts.5 *See In re Nine Assocs.,*\n\n4 The twelve *Johnson* factors are (1) the time and labor required, (2) the novelty and difficulty of the questions, (3) the skill requisite to perform the legal service properly, (4) the preclusion of other employment by the attorney due to acceptance of the case, (5) the customary fee, (6) whether the fee is fixed or contingent, (7) the time limitations imposed by the client or the circumstances, (8) the amount involved and the results obtained, (9) the experience, reputation, and ability of the attorneys, (10) the \"undesirability\" of the case, (11) the nature and length of the professional relationship with the client, and (12) awards in similar cases. *Johnson*, 488 F.2d at 717-19.\n\n5 The factors articulated in *First Colonial* were first articulated by the Fifth Circuit in *Johnson*, with the *First Colonial* court adding the factor of the \"spirit of economy,\" which was later rejected by Congress. *See Stroock & Stroock & Lavan v. Hillsborough Holdings Corp. (In re Hillsborough Holdings Corp.)*, 127 F.3d 1398, 1403\n\n*Inc.*, 76 B.R. 943, 945 (S.D.N.Y. 1987) (adopting *First Colonial/Johnson* analysis); *In re Cuisine Magazine, Inc.*, 61 B.R. 210, 212–13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y 1986) (same); *Green v. City of New York*, 403 F. Appx. 626, 629 (2d Cir. 2010) (summary order); *see generally* 3 COLLIER ON BANKRUPTCY ¶ 330.03[9] (Lawrence P. King ed., 16th ed. 2016) (describing *First Colonial* and *Johnson* as the \"leading cases with regard to the factors to be considered in determining a reasonable allowance of compensation\").\n\n28. In accordance with the factors enumerated in section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable case law, the amount requested herein by Pallas is fair and reasonable.\n\n### **Statutory Compliance**\n\n29. No agreement or understanding exists between Pallas and any other person for the sharing of compensation received or to be received for services rendered in or in connection with this matter. Pallas will not, in any form or guise, share or agree to share compensation for services with any person, nor will Pallas share in the compensation for any other person rendering service in these cases, except as so provided by section 504(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and Rule 2016 of the Bankruptcy Rules.\n\n### **RESERVATION OF RIGHTS**\n\n30. To the extent that time or disbursement charges for services rendered or expenses incurred during the Application Period are not included in this Application, or Pallas has for any reason not sought compensation or reimbursement with respect to such services, Pallas reserves the right to request compensation and reimbursement for such services in a supplemental or future application in these chapter 11 cases. Also, Pallas does not waive, and expressly reserves,\n\n (11th Cir. 1997).\n\nits right to respond to any objections regarding this Application and the amounts sought for services rendered and expenses incurred.\n\n# **NO PRIOR REQUEST**\n\n31. No previous request for the relief sought herein has been made to this Court or any other court.\n\n[*THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK.*]\n\n**WHEREFORE**, Pallas respectfully requests entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto, (i) allowing interim compensation for professional services rendered during the Application Period in the amount of \\$107,271.50 and reimbursement of \\$875.63 in expenses, (ii) authorizing and directing prompt payment of the unpaid fees in the amount of \\$108,147.13 from the estates, (iii) allowing such compensation and payment for professional services rendered without prejudice to Pallas' right to seek further compensation and/or payment from the estates for the full value of services performed and expenses incurred, and (iv) granting Pallas such other and further relief as is just.\n\nDated: June 24, 2024 London, United Kingdom\n\nBy: */s/*\n\n Natasha Harrison PALLAS PARTNERS LLP 1 King William Street London, EC4N 7AF United Kingdom Telephone: +44 20 4574 1001 Email: natasha.harrison@pallasllp.com\n\n *United Kingdom Solicitor to Luc A.

Despins（以下简称“受托人”）的英国事务律师，特此提交本《Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 December 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的第二次临时申请》（以下简称“本申请”）。Pallas 通过本申请，请求对在本第11章案件中于 December 1, 2024 至 April 30, 2024（包括该日）期间（以下简称“申请期间”）产生的专业费用予以临时核准。为支持本申请，Pallas 谨陈述如下：\n\n1 本第11章案件中的债务人为 Ho Wan Kwok（郭文贵）（亦称 Guo Wengui、Miles Guo 和 Miles Kwok，以及众多其他别名）（税务识别号后四位：9595）、Genever Holdings LLC（Genever Holdings 有限责任公司）（税务识别号后四位：8202）及 Genever Holdings Corporation（Genever Holdings 公司）。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC 及 Genever Holdings Corporation 的邮寄地址为 Paul Hastings LLP，200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166，转交 Luc A. Despins（卢克·A·德斯平斯），作为 Ho Wan Kwok 遗产的受托人（仅为通知和通信之目的）。\n\n管辖权、审判地、救济依据及合规情况\n\n1. 本院依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334 以及美国康涅狄格州联邦地区法院的移交常设命令，对本事项具有管辖权。本事项属于 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2) 所定义的核心程序。依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409，审判地适格。\n\n2. 本申请所请求救济的法律依据为破产法第328、330及331条、破产规则第2016条及地方法规第2016-1条。\n\n3. Pallas 认为，本申请连同其所附附件，实质上符合破产规则、地方法规第2016-1条以及《美国受托人关于审查大型第11章案件中律师依据 11 U.S.C. § 330 提交的报酬及开支偿还申请的指引》（以下简称“美国受托人指引”）的规定。2 Pallas 谨请求豁免本申请未满足的任何前述要求。\n\n4. 以下证据附件随附于本申请，并通过援引并入本文：\n\n附件 A 包含准予本申请的拟议命令。\n\n附件 B 为工时记录人员汇总，其中包括在申请期间提供服务的每名 Pallas 人员的姓名、职称、律师资格准入情况、小时计费费率、累计工时及所获费用金额；\n\n2 Pallas 保留就美国受托人指引与本第11章案件中任何报酬申请相关性及实体法律效力所享有的一切权利。\n\n附件 C 为申请期间按开支类型列示的已发生开支及所请求偿还的汇总；以及\n\n附件 D 包含申请期间发生的费用和开支明细。\n\n背景\n\n5. 于 February 15, 2022（以下简称“申请日”），个人债务人在美国康涅狄格州联邦破产法院（布里奇波特分院）（以下简称“本院”）依据破产法提交了自愿救济申请。\n\n6. 于 March 21, 2022，美国受托人在个人债务人的第11章案件中任命了无担保债权人正式委员会（以下简称“委员会”）。个人债务人的第11章案件中尚未任命审查员。\n\n7. 于 June 15, 2022，本院作出一份决定备忘录及命令 [ECF No. 465]（以下简称“受托人命令”），指示美国受托人在个人债务人的第11章案件中任命第11章受托人。\n\n8. 根据受托人命令，美国受托人选定 Luc A. Despins（卢克·A·德斯平斯）担任受托人。于 July 8, 2022，本院作出命令，批准 Luc A. Despins 在个人债务人的第11章案件中担任受托人。\n\n9. 根据于 March 24, 2023 录入的命令，本院授权 Pallas 受聘担任受托人的英国事务律师 [ECF No. 1596]（以下简称“聘任命令”），并自 January 26, 2022 起在债务人的第11章案件中生效。聘任命令授权 Pallas 根据破产法第328及330条、破产规则、地方法规以及本院可能作出的命令，按小时获得报酬，并就实际发生且必要的自付开支获得偿还。\n\n10. 于 August 18, 2023，本院录入临时报酬程序命令，该命令除其他事项外，批准每月支付 80% 的费用及 100% 的开支的程序。\n\n11. 于 December 27, 2024，Pallas 提交了《Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 January 26, 2023 Through November 30, 2023 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的第一次临时费用申请》[Docket No. 2475]（以下简称“第一次临时费用申请”），请求对本第11章案件中于 January 26, 2023 至 November 30, 2023（包括该日）期间产生的专业费用予以临时核准。于 January 24, 2024，本院准予第一次临时费用申请。\n\n核准请求\n\n12. 申请人根据破产法第330及331条，就申请期间为受托人提供的法律服务申请报酬。\n\n13. 对于申请期间，申请人请求核准 $107,271.50 作为已提供服务的报酬，并核准及偿还与该等服务有关而产生的 $875.63 开支。申请人在申请期间为本案投入了 111.1 小时，折合总体混合费率为 $965.54。\n\n14. 在整个申请期间，申请人保存记录，载明处理本事项的每名律师或辅助专业人员的姓名、就特定问题投入的时间以及所完成工作的性质。该等记录详尽描述了申请人提供的服务，并在服务实施时或大致同时形成。\n\n15. 随附于本申请并作为其组成部分的附件 D 是一份详细计费报告，本申请以该报告为依据；该报告载有各专业人员就债务人破产案件所投入的时间，逐项列明服务提供的日期，包括每名提供服务者在每一该等日期所提供服务的摘要、提供该等服务所花费的时间及该等服务的美元价值。\n\n所提供服务摘要\n\n16. 在获得正式委托后，Pallas 被要求就个人债务人、Ace Decade Holdings Limited（第二原告）及 Dawn State Limited（第三原告）针对 UBS AG（被告）（Case CL-2020-000345）提起的英国诉讼程序（以下简称“UBS 诉讼”）提供详细且具有战略性的意见；该诉讼请求构成个人债务人遗产的财产。\n\n17. 在费用期间，Pallas 持续就与 UBS 诉讼有关的若干事项向受托人提供意见，包括就如何以最具成本效益的方式，为个人债务人遗产及其债权人的利益从 UBS 诉讼中实现价值最大化，向受托人提供意见。\n\n18. 为实现受托人为债权人利益最大化价值的目标，Pallas 始终专注于就为 UBS 诉讼目的取得对第二及第三原告控制权的程序向受托人提供意见。这要求一般性地就英国法事项提供意见，包括就受托人作为第11章受托人的权利和义务，以及其为取得对 UBS 诉讼的控制权并为债权人利益从该诉讼中实现价值而寻求在英格兰承认外国法院判决书及命令的能力提供意见。这也涉及与大律师就为说服英国法院承认受托人的控制权而需要在美国及英属维尔京群岛法院寻求的相关及必要救济进行联络。\n\n19. 为此，在进行了大量通信且第二及第三原告拒绝接受受托人对该等公司的控制权后，我们投入了大量时间处理暂缓申请。在该申请于 December 2023 提出后，我们参与审阅第二及第三原告的答复并准备我方回复证据，以及与大律师联络，为排定于 March 2024 审理的暂缓申请听证会作准备。在收到我方回复证据后，第二及第三原告同意暂缓。因此，不再有必要继续推进该申请及已排定的听证会。\n\n20. 因此，Pallas Partners LLP（帕拉斯合伙律师事务所）迄今开展的工作，涉及就实质性的中止动议进行大量工作，尤其包括完成该申请、审阅第二及第三申请人的答复证据并准备我方回复证据，以及持续关注美国及英属维尔京群岛法院正在寻求的救济；该等救济与为取得对第二及第三申请人的控制权并为个人债务人破产财团的债权人实现价值最大化而必须在英格兰寻求的救济相关。Pallas还重点处理当事人之间的函件往来，并向受托人提供战略意见。该等工作仍在进行中，Pallas继续跟进必要的美国及英属维尔京群岛步骤的进展，并且目前正与第二及第三申请人协商，以寻求延长中止动议的期限。\n\n无先前申请\n\n21. 此前未曾就所请求的救济提出申请。\n\n报酬的法律依据\n\n22. 本文所请求裁定的全部专业服务，均仅代表受托人就本案第11章案件提供。\n\n23. 申请人谨陈，其服务凭借处理破产事项所需的专业知识和技能，使受托人受益。请求该等报酬的法律服务系为受托人并代表受托人提供。该等服务对于保护和执行受托人在本案第11章案件中享有的权利和利益属必要。Pallas在本案中所提供服务的合理价值，基于Pallas对此类事项通常收取的小时费率。\n\n24. 《破产法典》第330条规定了确定应向专业人员支付报酬数额的一般标准。申请人陈述，就申请期间所请求的数额，考虑到所耗费的时间、该等服务的性质、范围及价值，并参照非破产案件中可比服务的成本，构成对所提供专业服务的合理报酬。\n\n25. 《破产法典》第331条规定专业人员的临时报酬，并纳入《破产法典》第330条的实体标准，以规范法院对此类报酬的裁定。《破产法典》第330(a)条规定，经通知及听证后，法院可以向根据11 U.S.C. § 327聘用的专业人员裁定“对实际提供的必要服务的合理报酬”及“对实际发生的必要费用的偿还”。11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(1).3\n\n26. 在确定“合理报酬”的数额时，法院必须考虑服务的性质、范围及价值，并考量所有相关因素，包括为该等服务所耗费的时间、该等服务所收取的费率、该等服务是否必要且有益、该等服务是否在与所处理问题、争议或任务的复杂性、重要性及性质相称的合理时间内完成，以及根据具有可比技能的执业者在非《破产法典》案件中通常收取的报酬，该报酬是否合理。见11 U.S.C. § 330(a)(3)。法院在确定合理的费用裁定时享有“相当大的自由裁量权”。In re Ahead Communication Systems, Inc., 395 B.R. 512 (D. Conn. 2008).\n\n3 根据《破产法典》第328(a)条，经破产法院批准，受托人可以根据《破产法典》第327(a)条，“依任何合理的聘用条款及条件，包括按预付聘金、按小时、按固定或百分比费用，或按或有费用基础”，聘用专业人员。11 U.S.C. § 328(a).\n\n27. 在评估所请求费用的“合理性”时，第二巡回上诉法院（Second Circuit）指出，法院应考虑Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc.中列举的因素，4 同时纳入“基准计算法”。见Arbor Hill Concerned Citizens Neighborhood Ass'n v. County of Albany and Albany County Bd. of Elections, 522 F.3d 182, 190 (2d Cir. 2007) (citing Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc., 488 F.2d 714 (5th Cir.1974), abrogated on other grounds by Blanchard v. Bergeron, 489 U.S. 87, 92–93, 96 (1989))。“基准计算法”用于计算合理费用，其设想为“合理支出的小时数……乘以合理的小时费率”。见Hensley v. Eckerhart, 461 U.S. 424, 433 (1983); Gisbrecht v. Barnhart, 535 U.S. 789, 801 (2002); Perdue v. Kenny A., 130 S.Ct. 1662, 1672 (2010); In re Drexel Burnham Lambert Grp., Inc., 133 B.R. 13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1991)。Johnson及In re First Colonial Corp. of Am., 544 F.2d 1291, 1298–99 (5th Cir. 1977)所列因素已被大多数法院采纳。5 见In re Nine Assocs., Inc., 76 B.R. 943, 945 (S.D.N.Y. 1987) (adopting First Colonial/Johnson analysis); In re Cuisine Magazine, Inc., 61 B.R. 210, 212–13 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y 1986) (same); Green v. City of New York, 403 F. Appx. 626, 629 (2d Cir. 2010) (summary order); 一般参见3 COLLIER ON BANKRUPTCY ¶ 330.03[9] (Lawrence P. King ed., 16th ed. 2016)（将First Colonial和Johnson描述为“关于确定合理报酬许可时应考虑因素的主要案件”）。\n\n4 Johnson的十二项因素为：（1）所需时间和劳动；（2）问题的新颖性和难度；（3）妥善提供法律服务所需的技能；（4）律师因接受该案件而无法从事其他工作；（5）通常费用；（6）费用是固定的还是或有的；（7）客户或情形施加的时间限制；（8）涉及的金额和取得的结果；（9）律师的经验、声誉和能力；（10）案件的“不可取性”；（11）与客户专业关系的性质和持续时间；以及（12）类似案件中的裁定。Johnson, 488 F.2d at 717-19.\n\n5 First Colonial中阐述的因素最初由第五巡回上诉法院在Johnson中提出，First Colonial法院增加了“经济精神”这一因素，后被国会否决。见Stroock & Stroock & Lavan v. Hillsborough Holdings Corp. (In re Hillsborough Holdings Corp.), 127 F.3d 1398, 1403 (11th Cir. 1997).\n\n28. 根据《破产法典》第330条所列因素及适用判例法，Pallas在本文中请求的数额公平且合理。\n\n法定合规\n\n29. Pallas与任何其他人之间不存在就因在本事项中或与本事项相关而提供服务所收取或将收取的报酬进行分配的协议或谅解。Pallas不会以任何形式或名义与任何人分配或同意分配服务报酬，也不会分享任何其他在本案中提供服务之人的报酬，但《破产法典》第504(b)条和《破产规则》第2016条所规定者除外。\n\n权利保留\n\n30. 如申请期间提供服务或发生费用的时间或支出费用未列入本申请，或Pallas因任何原因未就该等服务请求报酬或费用偿还，Pallas保留在本案第11章案件中通过补充申请或未来申请，就该等服务请求报酬及费用偿还的权利。此外，Pallas不放弃并明确保留其就本申请及所请求的已提供服务和已发生费用数额的任何异议作出回应的权利。\n\n无先前请求\n\n31. 此前未曾向本法院或任何其他法院提出本文所寻求救济的请求。\n\n[本页其余部分特意留白。]\n\n因此，Pallas谨请求作出一项裁定，其形式大致如随附文本所示：（i）准许就申请期间提供的专业服务支付$107,271.50的临时报酬，并偿还$875.63的费用；（ii）授权并指示从破产财团迅速支付未付费用$108,147.13；（iii）准许该等专业服务报酬及付款，但不影响Pallas就所完成服务的全部价值及所发生费用向破产财团寻求进一步报酬和/或付款的权利；以及（iv）给予Pallas法院认为公正的其他及进一步救济。\n\n日期：June 24, 2024 英国伦敦\n\n签字：/s/\n\nNatasha Harrison\nPALLAS PARTNERS LLP（帕拉斯合伙律师事务所）\n1 King William Street\nLondon, EC4N 7AF\nUnited Kingdom\n电话：+44 20 4574 1001\n电子邮件：natasha.harrison@pallasllp.com\n\n英国事务律师，卢克·A·德斯平斯（Luc A.
