By this Application, Pallas requests interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from September 1, 2024 through and including December 31, 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 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\n<sup>2</sup> 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 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- **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 section 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, 2023, 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\n12. On June 24, 2024, Pallas filed its *Second Interim Fee Application of Pallas Partners LLP, as Solicitors in United Kingdom, for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses for Period from December 1, 2023 Through April 30, 2024* [Docket No. 3277] (the \"Second Interim Fee Application\"), requesting interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from December 1, 2023 through and including April 30, 2024 in these chapter 11 cases. On July 23, 2024, the Court granted the Second Interim Fee Application.\n\n13. On October 15, 2024, Pallas filed its *Third Interim Fee Application of Pallas Partners LLP, as Solicitors in United Kingdom, for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses for Period from May 1, 2024 Through August 31, 2024* [Docket No. 3699] (the \"Third Interim Fee Application\"), requesting interim allowance of professional fees incurred during the period from May 1, 2024 through and including August 31, 2024 in these chapter 11 cases. On November 13, 2024, the Court granted the Third Interim Fee Application.\n\n#### **ALLOWANCE REQUEST**\n\n14. 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\n15. For the Application Period, the Applicant seeks allowance of \\$189,270.00 as compensation for services rendered and allowance and reimbursement of \\$753.67 in expenses incurred in connection with such services. The Applicant devoted 189.2 hours to this case during the Application Period, equating to an overall blended rate of \\$1,000.37.\n\n16. 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\n17. 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 Debtors' 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\n18. 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. In addition, Pallas has been asked\n\nby the Trustee to consider strategic options in England relating to Hamilton Capital Holding Ltd (\"Hamilton\"), an entity which the Trustee maintains is part of the Estate and which he is seeking to obtain control over, pursuant to Hamilton entering into administration (the \"Hamilton Administration\").\n\n19. 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. In addition, Pallas has advised the Trustee in respect of matters arising under the Hamilton Administration in order to preserve value in the company and ensure that the Administration process does not seek to undermine and circumvent the Trustee's rights.\n\n20. In respect of the UBS Action, 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 and seeking a further stay of the English proceedings pending the relief sought in the BVI courts (as to the Trustee's ownership of the Second and Third Claimant) which will ultimately be recognized in the English Courts.\n\n21. To that end, Pallas has assisted in continuing to advocate for, and liaise with the parties on, an extension to the stay of the English proceedings in order to ensure no steps can be taken by any party in England and to ensure that no costs are incurred by any parties. Upon the purported appointment of joint liquidators over Ace Decade (the \"JLs\") in the BVI, Pallas has also been working with the Trustee to support his discussions and negotiations with the JLs in order to seek to obtain appropriate relief in the BVI and ultimately obtain control of the Second and Third Claimants for the purposes of the English proceedings.\n\n22. In respect to the Hamilton Administration, in order to achieve the Trustee's objective of maximizing value for the benefit of the creditors, Pallas has been focused on advising the Trustee in connection with the attempts by the joint administrators of Hamilton to vary a worldwide freezing order and sell certain assets of Hamilton including valuable gold in the company's possession, and over which the Trustee maintains a beneficial claim on behalf of the Debtor's estate. In consultation with the Trustee's barristers, Pallas's work has involved analyzing the application to the court by Hamilton's joint administrators and engaging in i*nter partes* correspondence seeking to agree that the joint administrators freeze any proceeds arising from the sale of Hamilton's gold assets until determination of the Trustee's claim in this Court for a declaration that Hamilton and its assets are beneficially owned by the Trustee. In view of Hamilton's joint administrators refusal to cooperate, Pallas' work has also involved preparing an application on behalf of the Trustee seeking (a) an order requiring Hamilton's joint administrators to retain any proceeds of sale in respect of Hamilton's property until the final determination of the Trustee's claim in this Court for a declaration that Hamilton and its assets are beneficially owned by the Trustee, and (b) in the alternative, a proprietary injunction in similar terms.\n\n#### **NO PRIOR APPLICATION**\n\n23. No prior application for the relief requested has been made.\n\n#### **LEGAL AUTHORITY FOR COMPENSATION**\n\n24. 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\n25. 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\n\nwhich 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\n26. 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\n27. 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\n28. 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 amount 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\n\n<sup>3</sup> 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\ncompensation 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\n29. 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.<sup>5</sup> *See In re Nine Assocs., Inc.*, 76 B.R. 943, 945 (S.D.N.Y. 1987) (adopting *First Colonial/Johnson* analysis); *In re Cuisine*\n\n<sup>4</sup> 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\n<sup>5</sup> 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 (11th Cir. 1997).\n\n*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\n30. 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, its 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 \\$189,270.00 and reimbursement of \\$753.67 in expenses, (ii) authorizing and directing prompt payment of the unpaid fees in the amount of \\$190,023.67 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: February 24, 2025 London, United Kingdom\n\nBy: */s/ Natasha Harrison \\_*\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 Ho Wan Kwok 第 11 章案件中获任命的第 11 章受托人（以下简称“受托人”）身份之英国事务律师，特此提交 Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 September 1, 2024 至 December 31, 2024 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的本第四次中期申请（以下简称“本申请”）。申请人通过本申请，请求对本第 11 章案件中于 September 1, 2024 起至并包括 December 31, 2024 止期间（以下简称“申请期间”）发生的专业费用作出中期核准。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（亦称 Guo Wengui、Miles Guo 和 Miles Kwok，以及众多其他别名）（税务识别号末四位：9595）、Genever Holdings LLC（税务识别号末四位：8202）以及 Genever Holdings Corporation。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC 和 Genever Holdings Corporation 的邮寄地址为 Paul Hastings LLP，200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166，转交 Luc A. Despins，作为 Ho Wan Kwok 财产的受托人（仅用于通知和通信）。\n\n管辖权、审判地、救济依据及合规性\n\n1. 本院依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 157 和 1334 以及美国康涅狄格州联邦地区法院的常设移送命令，对本事项拥有管辖权。本事项属于 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2) 所称的核心程序。依据 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 和 1409，审判地适当。\n\n2. 本申请所请求救济的法律依据为《破产法》第 330 和 331 条、《破产规则》第 2016 条及《地方规则》第 2016-1 条。\n\n3. Pallas 认为，本申请连同其附件，实质上符合《破产规则》、《地方规则》第 2016-1 条及《美国受托人审查大型第 11 章案件中律师根据 11 U.S.C. § 330 提出的报酬及开支偿还申请指南》（以下简称“美国受托人指南”）。2 Pallas 谨请求豁免本申请未满足的任何上述要求。\n\n4. 随附并通过援引纳入本文的附件如下：\n\n附件 A 载有准予本申请的拟议命令。\n\n2 Pallas 保留关于美国受托人指南与本第 11 章案件中任何报酬申请有关的相关性及实体法律效力的一切权利。\n\n附件 B 为计时人员摘要，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、每小时计费费率、总计工时和已赚取费用金额；\n\n附件 C 为按开支类型列示的申请期间发生并请求偿还的开支摘要；以及\n\n附件 D 载有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”）根据《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 章案件中任命一名第 11 章受托人。\n\n8. 根据受托人命令，美国受托人选定 Luc A. Despins 为受托人。于 July 8, 2022，本院作出命令，准予任命 Luc A. Despins 为个人债务人第 11 章案件中的受托人。\n\n9. 根据于 March 24, 2023 录入的命令，本院授权在债务人的第 11 章案件中自 January 26, 2022 起聘任 Pallas 担任受托人的英国事务律师 [ECF No. 1596]（以下简称“聘任命令”）。聘任命令授权 Pallas 根据《破产法》第 330 条、《破产规则》、《地方规则》及本院可能指示的命令，按小时获得报酬，并获得实际且必要的自付开支偿还。\n\n10. 于 August 18, 2023，本院录入中期报酬程序命令，该命令除其他事项外，批准按月支付 80% 的费用和 100% 的开支的程序。\n\n11. 于 December 27, 2023，Pallas 提交了其《Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 January 26, 2023 至 November 30, 2023 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的第一次中期费用申请》[Docket No. 2475]（以下简称“第一次中期费用申请”），请求对本第 11 章案件中于 January 26, 2023 起至并包括 November 30, 2023 止期间发生的专业费用作出中期核准。于 January 24, 2024，本院准予第一次中期费用申请。\n\n12. 于 June 24, 2024，Pallas 提交了其《Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 December 1, 2023 至 April 30, 2024 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的第二次中期费用申请》[Docket No. 3277]（以下简称“第二次中期费用申请”），请求对本第 11 章案件中于 December 1, 2023 起至并包括 April 30, 2024 止期间发生的专业费用作出中期核准。于 July 23, 2024，本院准予第二次中期费用申请。\n\n13. 于 October 15, 2024，Pallas 提交了其《Pallas Partners LLP 作为英国事务律师就 May 1, 2024 至 August 31, 2024 期间报酬及开支偿还提出的第三次中期费用申请》[Docket No. 3699]（以下简称“第三次中期费用申请”），请求对本第 11 章案件中于 May 1, 2024 起至并包括 August 31, 2024 止期间发生的专业费用作出中期核准。于 November 13, 2024，本院准予第三次中期费用申请。\n\n核准请求\n\n14. 申请人根据《破产法》第 330 和 331 条，就申请期间为受托人提供的法律服务申请报酬。\n\n15. 就申请期间，申请人请求核准 \\$189,270.00 的已提供服务报酬，并核准及偿还与该等服务有关的已发生开支 \\$753.67。申请人在申请期间为本案投入 189.2 小时，相当于总体混合费率 \\$1,000.37。\n\n16. 在整个申请期间，申请人保存记录，以注明处理本事项的每名律师或辅助专业人员的姓名、就特定事项所花费的时间以及所完成工作的性质。该等记录详细说明申请人提供的服务，并于提供服务的大致同期制作。\n\n17. 随附并作为本文组成部分的附件 D 是一份详细计费报告，本申请以该报告为依据；该报告载有每名专业人员就债务人破产案件投入的时间，逐项列明提供服务的日期，包括每名提供服务人员于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以及该等服务的美元价值。\n\n所提供服务摘要\n\n18. 经正式指示后，Pallas 被要求就个人债务人、Ace Decade Holdings Limited（Ace Decade Holdings 有限公司）（“第二原告”）及 Dawn State Limited（Dawn State 有限公司）（“第三原告”）针对 UBS AG（瑞银集团）（“被告”）提起的英国诉讼程序（以下简称“UBS 诉讼”）（案件 CL-2020-000345）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财产的一部分。此外，受托人还要求 Pallas 考虑与 Hamilton Capital Holding Ltd（Hamilton Capital Holding 有限公司）（“Hamilton”）有关的英国战略选项；受托人主张该实体属于财产的一部分，并正寻求通过 Hamilton 进入管理程序（以下简称“Hamilton 管理程序”）取得对其的控制权。\n\n19. 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，包括就以最具成本效益的方式最大化 UBS 诉讼对个人债务人财产及其债权人的价值向受托人提供意见。此外，Pallas 就 Hamilton 管理程序下产生的事项向受托人提供意见，以维护该公司的价值，并确保管理程序不会试图削弱和规避受托人的权利。\n\n20. 就 UBS Action（瑞银诉讼）而言，为实现受托人为债权人利益最大化价值的目标，Pallas（帕拉斯）一直专注于就以下程序向受托人提供意见：为 UBS Action 之目的取得对第二及第三申请人的控制权；以及在英属维尔京群岛法院就受托人对第二及第三申请人的所有权所请求的救济尚待处理期间，寻求进一步中止英格兰诉讼程序，而该等救济最终将获英格兰法院承认。\n\n21. 为此，Pallas 一直协助继续主张并与各方联络，以延长英格兰诉讼程序的中止期限，确保任何一方均不得在英格兰采取任何步骤，并确保任何当事人均不会产生费用。在英属维尔京群岛 purported 任命 Ace Decade（艾斯十年）的共同清算人（“JLs”）后，Pallas 亦一直与受托人合作，支持其与 JLs 的讨论和谈判，以寻求在英属维尔京群岛获得适当救济，并最终为英格兰诉讼程序之目的取得对第二及第三申请人的控制权。\n\n22. 就 Hamilton Administration（汉密尔顿管理程序）而言，为实现受托人为债权人利益最大化价值的目标，Pallas 一直专注于就以下事项向受托人提供意见：Hamilton（汉密尔顿）的共同管理人试图变更一项全球冻结令并出售 Hamilton 的某些资产，包括公司持有的贵重黄金，且受托人代表债务人财产对该等资产主张实益权利。在与受托人的出庭律师协商后，Pallas 的工作包括分析 Hamilton 共同管理人向法院提出的申请，并进行当事人间函件往来，以寻求达成一致，即共同管理人在本院就 Hamilton 及其资产由受托人实益拥有作出宣告的受托人主张获得裁定前，冻结因出售 Hamilton 黄金资产而产生的任何所得款项。鉴于 Hamilton 的共同管理人拒绝合作，Pallas 的工作还包括代表受托人准备一项申请，请求：(a) 作出命令，要求 Hamilton 的共同管理人在本院就 Hamilton 及其资产由受托人实益拥有作出宣告的受托人主张获得最终裁定前，保留因出售 Hamilton 财产而取得的任何所得款项；以及 (b) 作为替代，请求作出条款相似的财产禁令。\n\n无先前申请\n\n23. 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\n24. 现就其请求裁定的所有专业服务，均仅代表受托人就本案第11章案件提供。\n\n25. 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。请求该等报酬所依据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该等第11章案件中的权利和利益属必要。Pallas 在该等案件中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\n26. 《破产法》第330条规定了确定应向专业人士支付报酬数额的一般标准。申请人主张，就申请期间请求的数额，考虑到非破产案件中可比服务的成本，并基于所耗时间、该等服务的性质、范围及价值，构成对所提供专业服务的合理报酬。\n\n27. 《破产法》第331条规定了专业人士的中期报酬，并纳入《破产法》第330条的实体标准，以规范法院对此类报酬的裁定。《破产法》第330(a)条规定，在通知和听证后，法院可向根据 11 U.S.C. § 327 聘用的专业人士裁定“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\n28. 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，包括该等服务所耗时间、该等服务收取的费率、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，以及基于具有可比技能的执业人员在《破产法》案件以外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)。法院在确定合理律师费裁定方面享有“相当大的裁量权”。In re Ahead Communication Systems, Inc., 395 B.R. 512 (D. Conn. 2008)。\n\n29. 在评估所请求费用的“合理性”时，Second Circuit（第二巡回上诉法院）已表示，法院应考虑 Johnson v. Ga. Highway Express, Inc. 中列举的因素，4 同时纳入“基准法”。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))。“基准法”计算合理费用时设想“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) 所列因素已获大多数法院采纳。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); 另见一般论述，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例”）。\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) 适当提供法律服务所需的技能；(4) 律师因接受案件而无法从事其他工作；(5) 惯常费用；(6) 费用是固定的还是风险代理的；(7) 客户或情势施加的时间限制；(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“不受欢迎程度”；(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 所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，该因素后来被国会否决。见 Stroock & Stroock & Lavan v.
