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.

## IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. The Motion is approved as set forth in this Order.

2. Notwithstanding the termination of the sale and marketing process under the Settlement Agreement on October 31, 2022, the sale and marketing process of the Sherry Netherland Apartment shall continue, as modified by this Order, retroactive to October 31, 2022 and through April 30, 2023, without prejudice to further extensions of the sale and marketing process upon the consent of the Movants, PAX, Bravo Luck, the Sales Officer, and Sotheby's without further order of the Court, or by further order of the Court for cause shown.
