Paul Hastings included these amounts not to recover twice but to ensure payment in the event the HK Parties (defined below) do not comply with the Sanctions Order (defined below). In July 2024, the Trustee received payment in the amount of \$83,370.26 from one of the HK Parties. Given that the Trustee was able to recover these fees from one of the HK Parties, Paul Hastings is not seeking further payment of such fees from the estates. - 6 Due to an inadvertent oversight, the monthly fee statements for January and February 2023 (which were covered in the First Interim Fee Application) did not reflect the voluntary reduction in the hourly rate of the Trustee (from \$1,975 to \$1,860 per hour), resulting in an overstatement of Paul Hastings' fees by \$20,096.25 with respect to these two months. This amount was credited in the Second Interim Fee Application against fees requested therein. - 7 Pursuant to the order granting the Third Interim Fee Application, the Debtors' estates were authorized to pay Paul Hastings \$2,820,787.40. The amount previously paid to Paul Hastings pursuant the Interim Compensation Procedures Order for services rendered during the months of July and August 2023 was \$2,980,787.40. The overpayment of \$160,000.00 (*i.e.*, 80% of \$200,000.00) was credited on Paul Hastings' September fee statement. | Date | Period | Requested Fees | Requested | Fees Awarded and Paid; | Expenses Awarded and | Amount | | | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|----------------|-----------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------|----------------|--|--| | Submitted / | Covered | | Expenses | Court Order | Paid; Court Order | Owing | | | | Docket No. | | | | | | | | | | Fourth Interim Fee Application for the Period from September 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 | | | | | | | | | | 2/19/24 | 9/1/23 - | \$6,911,034.50 | | \$718,236.31 Awarded: \$6,718,104.50 | Awarded: \$714,717.61 | \$1,343,620.90 | | | | Docket No. | 12/31/23 | | | \$5,374,483.608

During the Fee Period, the Trustee and Paul Hastings continued the investigation into the financial affairs of the Individual Debtor and his corporate "shell game" to shield companies and assets under his ownership and/or control from his creditors. Given the vast network of companies affiliated with the Individual Debtor, and the fact that these companies or their assets are located around the world, the Trustee's investigation continues to be extensive. As the Court is also aware, during the Fee Period, the Trustee also continued to prosecute, with the assistance of Paul Hastings and the Trustee's other advisors, numerous adversary proceedings asserting *alter ego* and equitable ownership claims (or similar claims under 2 To date, Paul Hastings has not requested (or received) any payment of its fees and expenses with respect to services provided during the Fee Period. In addition, while this Application seeks allowance of all fees incurred during the Fee Period (other than with respect to the civil RICO action), **Paul Hastings is only seeking payment, at this time, of (i) 80% of such fees (in addition to 100% of the expenses incurred during the Fee Period).** 3 In accordance with the Retention Order (as defined below), the Trustee is authorized to act as one of the attorneys for the Individual Debtor's estate, and, accordingly, this Application also seeks allowance of the Trustee's fees in such capacity. For the avoidance of doubt, in this Application, references to services provided by Paul Hastings attorneys shall include the Trustee. To be clear, time spent by the Trustee in his capacity as chapter 11 trustee, is not part of this Application, and compensation therefor will be sought by separate application. 4 Capitalized terms used in the preliminary statement have the meanings ascribed to such terms later in this Application. applicable law) as well as more than 300 adversary proceedings seeking to avoid fraudulent transfers and postpetition transfers (the "Avoidance Actions"). 2. As part of the Trustee's efforts to recover assets for the benefit of the estates, the Trustee continued to make substantial progress, including in several pending adversary proceedings and appeals. For example: - Greenwich Land Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings continued to prosecute the Trustee's adversary proceeding against Greenwich Land LLC ("Greenwich Land") and the Individual Debtor's alleged wife (*i.e.*, Hing Chi Ngok), seeking determinations that, among other things, (a) Greenwich Land (which holds legal title to the Individual Debtor's residence in Greenwich, Connecticut) is an *alter ego* of the Debtor and (b) the Debtor is the equitable owner of Greenwich Land. On July 3, 2024, the Court granted the Trustee's motion for summary judgment, holding, among other things, that **Greenwich Land is an** *alter ego* **of the Individual Debtor and directing that the property of Greenwich Land be turned over to the estate**. As a result of this ruling, among other things, the multi-million-dollar mansion located at 373 Taconic Road, Greenwich, Connecticut (the "Taconic Property") became property of the estate - o On October 15, 2024, the Court granted the Trustee's motion to sell the Taconic Property for **\$7.25 million** - Mahwah Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prosecute the Trustee's adversary proceeding against Scott Barnett (the Individual Debtor's driver and/or bodyguard), Taurus Fund, LLC ("Taurus Fund"), and Taurus Management LLC following the lifting of the stay on August 1, 2024. In this adversary proceeding, the Trustee seeks determinations that, among other things, (a) the Individual Debtor is the equitable owner of a 50,000 square foot, castle-styled private residence with 12.5-acre grounds located at 675 Ramapo Valley Road, Mahwah, New Jersey 07430 (the "Mahwah Mansion"), (b) the Debtor is the equitable owner of Taurus Fund (the entity holding title to the Mahwah Mansion), and (c) that Taurus Fund is an *alter ego* of the Individual Debtor. - o On September 11, 2024, the Trustee filed the motion for summary judgment, accompanied by a voluminous evidentiary record supporting the Trustee's motion which includes a statement of undisputed facts containing 56 paragraphs and citing to 279 exhibits and the testimony of more than 15 witnesses, either by way of deposition transcript or in-court testimony. Paul Hastings attorneys also prepared and filed the Trustee's reply to the defendants' opposition on the motion for summary judgment. A hearing on the Trustee's summary judgment was held on November 19, 2024. - o On October 1, 2024, the Trustee filed motion for authorization to market and sell the Mahwah Mansion and its contents (subject to certain conditions). On October 29, 2024, the Court entered an order granting the Trustee's motion. The Trustee's efforts to sell the Mahwah Mansion are ongoing. - Lamp Capital Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prosecute the Trustee's adversary proceeding seeking, among other things, determination that Lamp Capital LLC ("Lamp Capital"), Hudson Diamond NY LLC ("Hudson Diamond"), and Leading Shine NY Ltd. ("Leading Shine") are the Individual Debtor's *alter egos* and that the Individual Debtor equitably owns these defendants and their assets. - o On September 19, 2024, the Trustee filed the motion for summary judgment as to Trustee's claims against Hudson Diamond and Leading Shine, which includes a statement of undisputed facts containing 29 paragraphs and citing to 130 exhibits. Paul Hastings attorneys also prepared and filed the Trustee's reply to the defendant's opposition to the summary judgment motion. A hearing on the Trustee's summary judgment motion was held on December 10, 2024 (*i.e*., after the Fee Period), and the matter is currently under advisement by this Court. - Defeng Cao Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prosecute the Trustee's complaint seeking determinations that six separate vehicles—three Harley Davidsons and one BMW motorcycle, as well as one Land Rover Defender and one Dodge Ram Pickup Truck—which, while nominally held by the defendant, were fraudulently transferred to Defeng Cao (Mei Guo's long-term boyfriend), or alternatively, are equitably owned by the Individual Debtor. - o On September 9, 2024, the Court granted the Trustee's motion for judgment on the pleadings, holding that the **motorcycles are property of the estate and requiring Mr. Cao to turn them over to the estate**. - VCTR Shares: Through his investigation of the Individual Debtor's financial affairs, the Trustee learned that Lamp Capital—which the Court found to be an *alter ego* of the Individual Debtor—owns a limited partnership interest in the Reverence Capital Partners Opportunities Fund I (Cayman) L.P. (the "Reverence Fund"). The interest—which is property of the estate—includes rights to receive distributions from the publicly traded VCTR Shares and unpaid cash distributions. On June 12, 2024, the Court granted the Trustee's motion, holding, among other things, that the limited partnership interest is property of the estate, and approving the liquidation of the VCTR Shares and distribution of net proceeds to the Trustee for the benefit of the estate. - o On August 6, 2024, the Trustee filed a report noting that on July 31, 2024, he received for the benefit of the estate a distribution from Reverence Fund in the amount of **more than \$2.7 million** - Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceedings: During the Fee Period, Paul attorneys continued to pursue the Trustee's adversary proceeding against various entities, including K Legacy Ltd. ("K Legacy"), seeking declarations that such entities are *alter egos* of the Individual Debtor and/or their assets are beneficially owned by the Individual Debtor, such that their assets are property of the estate. - o On September 12, 2024, the Trustee obtained entries of default as against K Legacy and the Debtor's son, *i.e.*, Qiang Guo, pursuant to which the Court held, among other things, that the ownership interests in K Legacy and the assets of K Legacy, including a luxury apartment in London, are property of the estate. - o In addition to the default judgment against K Legacy and the Debtor's son, the Trustee has also commenced separate proceedings in the British Virgin Islands ("BVI"), *i.e.*, the jurisdiction where K Legacy is incorporated, to, among other things, seek rulings that the Trustee beneficially owns K Legacy and the London apartment. - o On October 29, 2029, Paul Hastings filed the Trustee's amended complaint in the omnibus *alter ego* litigation, and, on December 6, 2024, Paul Hastings filed the Trustee's objection to certain defendants' motions to dismiss the amended complaint. - o On September 13, 2024, the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court entered a default against more than 15 defendants. On November 26, 2024, upon the Trustee's motion for entry of consented to stipulated judgment, the Court entered the stipulated judgment as to defendant Karin Maistrello. - o On December 23, 2024, the Trustee commenced a new adversary proceeding against more than 40 entities seeking rulings that such entities are *alter egos* of the Individual Debtor and/or their assets are beneficially owned by the Individual Debtor under applicable law, such that their assets are property of the estate. - Ace Decade Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings continued to handle the Trustee's adversary proceeding against Ace Decade Holdings Limited ("Ace Decade"), Yvette Wang, and Rui Hao seeking a declaration that the transfer of the Ace Decade share by Yvette Wang to Rui Hao is void *ab initio* because it violates the Bankruptcy Code's automatic stay. - o On September 12, 2024, the Court entered a **default judgment against Rui Hao**. - o The Trustee has also learned that, in June 2024, Defendant Hao initiated liquidation proceedings in the BVI with respect to Ace Decade and its wholly owned subsidiary Dawn State Limited ("Dawn State"). Accordingly, Paul Hastings' also had to address the BVI liquidation proceedings as part of the Trustee's continuing efforts to obtain ownership and control over Ace Decade and Dawn State. To that end, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorney handled a variety of issues, in coordination with the Trustee's BVI counsel, relating to these proceedings in the BVI. - Mei Guo Adversary Proceeding: During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings continued, in coordination with the Trustee's local Connecticut counsel, Neubert Pepe & Monteith, P.C. ("NPM"), to prosecute the Trustee's adversary proceeding against Mei Guo. In this adversary proceeding, the Trustee seeks determinations that, among other things, (a) more than \$10 million in proceeds from the sale of the Individual Debtor's private Bombardier jet are property of the estate and (b) a series of BVI registered shell companies purportedly held by Mei Guo are property of the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 estate. On April 3, 2024, the Court granted, in part, the Trustee's motion for summary judgment, holding, among other things, that the Individual Debtor beneficially owned the Bombardier jet and, hence, beneficially owns the Bombardier proceeds, and directing Mei Guo to turn over to the estate the Bombardier proceeds. Following the Court's decision, more than **\$10 million** in Bombardier proceeds were turned over to the estate. - o During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys analyzed issues relating to Mei Guo's violation of the preliminary injunction order issued by this Court in the Mei Guo Adversary Proceeding and prepared the Trustee's motion to enforce the preliminary injunction, which was filed on December 20, 2024. - Appeals: The Trustee also made significant progress in the various appeals of order of this Court. For example: - o On August 23, 2024, the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut (the "District Court") affirmed this Court's orders granting the Trustee's motion for summary judgment in which this Court determined that the Individual Debtor was the beneficial owner of the Lady May yacht and that HK International Funds Investment (USA) Limited, LLC ("HK USA") was the Individual Debtor's *alter ego*. - o Paul Hastings attorneys spent significant time briefing the proposed intervenors' appeal of this Court's order denying their motion to intervene in the HCHK Adversary Proceeding. On August 29, 2024, after briefing concluded, the proposed intervenors filed a **stipulation dismissing the appeal with prejudice**. - o Paul Hastings attorneys also prepared the Trustee's brief in the HCHK entities' related appeal of this Court's order granting default judgment against such entities. After briefing concluded, the HCHK entities' counsel withdrew its appearance in the appeal and on October 24, 2024, the District Court entered an order of dismissal of the appeal case. On November 1, 2024, Clerk of the District Court **entered judgment of dismissal**. - o On September 30, 2024, the District Court **affirmed this Court's preliminary injunction order** against the Individual Debtor and those within his control prohibiting the intimidation and harassment of the Trustee and PAX during the protest activities. - o On November 15, 2024, Paul Hastings filed the Trustee's brief in the United States Court of Appeal for the Second Circuit in connection with the appeal of the District Court's order affirming the Bankruptcy Court's order holding HK USA and Mei Guo in contempt for failure to comply with order compelling production. - o On December 31, 2024 (*i.e.*, after the Fee Period), Paul Hastings filed the Trustee's brief in Greenwich Land and Ms. Ngok's appeal of the Bankruptcy Court's summary judgment decision in the Greenwich Land Adversary Proceeding. - o On January 21, 2024 (*i.e.*, after the Fee Period), the District Court issued a memorandum of decision **affirming the Bankruptcy Court's summary judgment order** in the Mei Guo Adversary Proceeding finding that the Individual Debtor was the beneficial owner of the Bombardier jet and Whitecroft Shore Limited, and that the proceeds from the sale of the Bombardier jet as well as Mei Guo's ownership interest in Whitecroft are property of the estate and must be turned over to the Trustee. - Motions to Withdraw References: Paul Hastings attorneys also continued to work on responses to several defendants' motions to withdraw the reference. For example: - o On August 30, 2024, the Trustee filed his objection to the motion to withdraw the reference of the Mahwah Adversary Proceeding filed by Taurus Fund, Taurus Management LLC, and Scott Barnett. - o On January 2, 2025 (*i.e.*, after the Fee Period), the District Court issued a memorandum of decision denying the motion to withdraw the reference by Greenwich Land and Ms. Ngok. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 13 of 879 3. Furthermore, during the Fee Period, the Trustee, with the assistance of Paul Hastings and the Trustee's other advisors, continued his global investigations into the Individual Debtor's financial affairs and made progress in his investigation and recovery efforts in foreign jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom, BVI, Switzerland, Mauritius, and the United Arab Emirates ("UAE"). 4. Moreover, during the Fee Period, the Trustee and his professionals continued to prosecute approximately 300 Avoidance Actions and handled issues including (a) analyzing potential avoidance claims, (b) preparing and filing additional Avoidance Action complaints and the Trustee's responses to Avoidance Action defendants' motions to dismiss, (c) preparing the Trustee's opposition to Avoidance Action defendants' motion to withdraw the reference, (d) meeting and conferring with counsel for Avoidance Action defendants, (e) developing strategies for potential settlements, (f) participating in mediation and conducting settlement negotiation, and (g) handling hearings and status conferences in such Avoidance Actions. Furthermore, on November 13, 2024 and November 20, 2024, respectively, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Trustee's motions for entry of default judgment in Avoidance Actions against Qiang Guo, the Debtor's son, with respect to more than **\$20 million** transfer from the Individual Debtor's *alter ego*, Lamp Capital, to Qiang Guo, and approximately **\$4 million** transfers from the Individual Debtor's *alter* egos, Lamp Capital, HCHK Technologies, Inc., and Leading Shine, for the benefit of Qiang Guo. 5. In addition, during the Fee Period, the Trustee and his professionals continued to prepare for and conduct mediation and settlement negotiations with respect to pending avoidance actions, and conferred with the mediator, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge James J. Tancredi, about the mediation processes. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 14 of 879 6. Given the enormity of the Trustee's task and the continued obstruction by the Debtors' associates and *alter ego* companies, coupled with the delay in Trustee's investigation caused by the Individual Debtor's criminal trial (see below), it was impossible for the Trustee to complete his investigation and assert all available causes of action prior to February 15, 2025 (*i.e.*, the extended deadline granted by the Court on August 14, 2024). For that reason, Paul Hastings, in coordination with NPM, prepared the Trustee's motion to extend the February 15, 2025 deadline for the Trustee to commence actions to avoid and recover fraudulent transfers and/or assert other estate causes of action (which motion was filed on July 19, 2024). The Court held an evidentiary hearing on August 13, 2024 and granted this motion by order dated August 14, 2024.5 7. In addition, as part of the Trustee's investigation, the Trustee continued to monitor the criminal case (the "Criminal Case") against the Individual Debtor and Yvette Wang in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York [Case No. 1:23-cr-00118-AT] (the "SDNY Court"). As the Court is aware, the Individual Debtor was found guilty on nine counts following a jury trial (the "Criminal Trial"), while Yvette Wang pled guilty and was recently sentenced to ten years in prison. The Individual Debtor's sentencing hearing is pending. The Criminal Trial made public thousands of government exhibits, which contain important information that the Trustee had not learned in discovery and supplemented the Trustee's ongoing investigation efforts. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to review these exhibits and analyze various legal issues related to the criminal forfeiture allegations of over \$630 million in assets seized by the U.S. Government in the Individual Debtor's Criminal Case. 5 Recently, the Court has further extended the deadline to August 15, 2025 [Docket No. 4106]. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 15 of 879 8. Furthermore, during the Fee Period, the Trustee and Paul Hastings continued to handle the remediation and cleaning efforts following the fire on March 15, 2023 at the 18th floor apartment at the Sherry Netherland (the "Sherry Netherland Apartment"). Among other things, Paul Hastings attorneys worked with Genever (US)'s architect (Acheson Doyle) and other service providers to conduct the remediation of soot and other combustion by-products and ancillary services at the Sherry Netherland Apartment. The remediation and cleaning projects were substantially completed in August 2024, such that, beginning in September 2024, the Trustee began marketing the Sherry Netherland Apartment. 9. All the while, during the Fee Period, the Trustee and Paul Hastings provided a wide range of other chapter 11 related services, including, for example, handling ten hearings and status conferences, preparing and prosecuting numerous substantive motions, and preparing monthly operating reports. 10. As detailed in this Application, Paul Hastings has performed all of its services in an economic, effective, and efficient manner commensurate with the complexity and importance of the issues involved. The work performed by Paul Hastings was carefully assigned to appropriate professionals or paraprofessionals according to the experience and level of expertise required for each particular task. Whenever possible, Paul Hastings sought to minimize the costs of Paul Hastings' services by utilizing talented junior attorneys and paraprofessionals to handle the more routine aspects of the assignments. Moreover, as detailed below, Paul Hastings has delegated numerous work streams (including the recent avoidance actions process) to local Connecticut counsel (which has a lower rate structure than Paul Hastings). 11. To further minimize the costs of intra-Paul Hastings communications and education about these chapter 11 cases, the Trustee utilized a small group of Paul Hastings ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 16 of 879 attorneys for the majority of the work in these chapter 11 cases. Also, as a general matter, in addition to the Trustee, no more than two Paul Hastings attorneys attended the various hearings held during the Fee Period (and in some instances, the Trustee handled hearings without attendance of any Paul Hastings attorneys), thereby minimizing not only the time billed on these hearings/sessions but also the cost of travel. Moreover, as noted on the record at the August 2, 2022 hearing on Paul Hastings' retention application, the Trustee has agreed *not* to seek a percentage recovery under section 326 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, instead, agreed that he would only be compensated (at his standard hourly rate) for his time. 12. Finally, as an accommodation to these estates and to minimize the review process by the Court and parties in interest, Paul Hastings is not seeking allowance or payment at this time for the fees of thirteen (13) timekeepers who billed less than five (5) hours during the Fee Period in the aggregate amount of \$10,690.50. The time billed by these timekeepers was reasonable, and Paul Hastings reserves the right to seek allowance of these fees based on the facts and circumstances of these cases, including, without limitation, if objections are interposed to the allowance of Paul Hastings' fees and expenses. 13. In sum, Paul Hastings respectfully submits that the services for which it seeks compensation in this Application were necessary for and beneficial to these chapter 11 estates and their stakeholders. Accordingly, in light of the nature and complexity of these chapter 11 cases, Paul Hastings' charges for professional services performed and expenses incurred are reasonable under applicable standards. For all these reasons, Paul Hastings respectfully requests that the Court grant the Application and allow interim compensation for professional services performed and reimbursement for expenses as requested. ### **JURISDICTION, VENUE, BASES FOR RELIEF, AND COMPLIANCE** 14. 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. 15. The legal predicates for the relief requested herein are sections 328, 330, and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rule 2016, and Local Bankruptcy Rule 2016-1. 16. Paul Hastings believes that this Application, together with the attachments hereto, substantially complies with the Bankruptcy Rules, Local Rule 2016-1, the Interim Compensation Procedures Order, 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").6 Paul Hastings respectfully requests a waiver of any of the foregoing requirements not met by this Application. - 17. Attached and incorporated herein by reference are the following Exhibits: - Exhibit A contains disclosures regarding "customary and comparable compensation." - Exhibit B1 contains a summary of Paul Hastings' timekeepers included in this Application. - Exhibit B2 contains a summary of Paul Hastings' timekeepers who billed less than five (5) hours during the Fee Period and for whom Paul Hastings is not seeking allowance or payment at this time. - Exhibit C contains a summary of the compensation requested by project category. - Exhibits D-1 and D-2 contain a summary of the compensation requested by Matter ID. 6 Paul Hastings 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. - Exhibit E contains the expense reimbursements requested by category. - Exhibit F contains the monthly statements of Paul Hastings detailing the services performed and itemizing the expenses incurred during the Fee Period. - Exhibit G contains the Proposed Order. ### **BACKGROUND** ### **I. Individual Debtor's Chapter 11 Case** 18. On February 15, 2022 (the "Petition Date"), the Individual Debtor filed with the Court a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. 19. On March 21, 2022, the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors ("Committee") in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case. No examiner has been appointed in the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case. 20. On June 15, 2022, the Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [Docket No. 465] (the "Trustee Order") directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the chapter 11 case of Ho Wan Kwok. 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 chapter 11 case of Ho Wan Kwok. 21. The Court authorized Paul Hastings' retention as attorneys for the Trustee pursuant to the *Order Authorizing and Approving the Retention and Employment of Paul Hastings LLP as Counsel to Chapter 11 Trustee, effective as of July 8, 2022* [Docket No. 668] (together with the retention order with respect to the Genever Debtors [Docket No. 1376], the "Retention Order"), entered on August 2, 2022. The Retention Order authorizes Paul Hastings to be compensated on an hourly basis and reimbursed for actual and necessary out-of-pocket expenses pursuant to sections 328 and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 19 of 879 Local Bankruptcy Rules, and such orders as the Court may direct. Moreover, at the August 1, 2022 hearing on the Paul Hastings' retention application, the Court made clear that it approved Paul Hastings' New York rate structure.7 In addition, as noted on the record at that hearing, the Trustee has agreed *not* to seek a percentage recovery under section 326 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, instead, agreed that he would only be compensated (at his standard hourly rate) for his time. 22. In light of the Trustee's ongoing investigation into the Individual Debtor's assets and his financial affairs, the Trustee is unable at this time to predict when he will be in a position to file a plan and disclosure statement. All quarterly fees have been paid to the United States Trustee, and all monthly operating reports have been filed through August 2024 (for each of the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case, Genever (BVI)'s chapter 11 case, and Genever (US)'s chapter 11 case). 23. At this time, the amount of cash in the Trustee's account is approximately \$74.4 million. The Trustee is not aware of any material administrative expense claims other than claims for professional fees and expenses. ### **II. Genever (BVI)'s Chapter 11 Case** 24. On October 11, 2022, Genever (BVI) -- an entity wholly owned by the Individual Debtor -- filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code with this Court. 25. No trustee or official committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in Genever (BVI)'s chapter 11 case. 7 *See* Aug. 1, 2022 H'rg Tr. at 113:15-19 ("MR. DESPINS: But I want to be clear is that that's not going to be a back door way to bring local rates, or anything like that -- THE COURT: No, I'm not doing that. I agree with that."). ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 20 of 879 26. October 14, 2022, the Court entered an order granting joint administration of the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case and Genever (BVI)'s chapter 11 case [Docket No. 970]. 27. On January 24, 2023, the Court granted Genever (BVI)'s application to retain Paul Hastings as counsel to Genever (BVI) in its chapter 11 case, effective as of its petition date, *i.e.*, October 11, 2022 [Docket No. 1376]. ### **III. Genever (US)'s Chapter 11 Case** 28. On October 12, 2020, Genever Holdings LLC -- an entity wholly owned by Genever (BVI) -- filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "SDNY Bankruptcy Court"), thereby commencing case number 20-12411 (JLG) (the "SDNY Bankruptcy Case"). 29. On November 3, 2022, the SDNY Bankruptcy Court entered an order [Docket No. 225 in Case No. 22-50592] transferring the venue of the SDNY Bankruptcy Case to this Court, which assigned it Case Number 22-50592. 30. On November 21, 2022, the Court entered an order granting joint administration of the Genever (US) Debtor's chapter 11 case with the jointly administered cases of the Individual Debtor and the Genever (BVI) Debtor's chapter 11 case [Docket No. 1141]. 31. On January 24, 2023, the Court granted Genever (US)'s application to retain Paul Hastings as counsel to Genever (US) in its chapter 11 case, effective as of the order transferring venue of the SDNY Bankruptcy Case to this Court, *i.e.*, November 3, 2022 [Docket No. 1376]. ### **RELIEF REQUESTED** 32. By this Application, the Trustee and Paul Hastings request allowance of fees (in the amount of \$5,552,587.25) and expenses incurred (in the amount of \$215,048.30) for services rendered by, for, and on behalf of the Trustee during the Fee Period. The Trustee has approved the amounts requested by Paul Hastings herein. 33. While this Application seeks allowance of all fees incurred during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings only seeks, at this time, payment of 80% of the fees and 100% of the expenses— *i.e.*, Paul Hastings does not seek, at this time, payment of the 20% holdback withheld by the Debtors' estates with respect to Fee Period.8 # **COMPENSATION AND VALUE OF SERVICES** 34. To date, the Trustee and Paul Hastings have submitted the following fee/expense- related applications in these chapter 11 cases: - (a) On March 1, 2023, Paul Hastings submitted the *First Interim Application of Chapter 11 Trustee and his Counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, for Reimbursement of Expenses for the Period from July 8, 2022 through October 31, 2022* [Docket No. 1495] (the "Expense Reimbursement Application"), whereby the Trustee and Paul Hastings requested reimbursement of the actual and necessary expenses incurred by the Trustee and Paul Hastings during the period from July 8, 2022 through October 31, 2022 in the amount of \$63,631.75. On May 3, 2023, the Court entered an order granting the Expense Reimbursement Application [Docket No. 1747] (the "Expense Reimbursement Order"). The Individual Debtor's estate paid the foregoing amount on May 8, 2023. - (b) On April 10, 2023, Paul Hastings submitted the Special Fee Application of Chapter 11 Trustee and his Counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, for Services Rendered in Securing Compliance with Court-Authorized Subpoenas [Docket No. 1648] (the "Special Fee Application"). In the Special Fee Application, Paul Hastings requested allowance and payment of fees in the amount of \$83,370.26 in accordance with the HK Parties Contempt Order.9 On April 21, 2023, the Court approved the Special Fee Application and ordered the HK Parties to remit payment of \$83,370.26 to the chapter 11 estate of the Individual Debtor [Docket 8 In this Application Paul Hastings is not seeking allowance or payment of fees or reimbursement of expenses with respect to the Civil RICO Adversary Proceeding.

Attached hereto as Exhibit F are true and correct copies of the monthly statements of Paul Hastings related to the fees requested herein. 38. As a courtesy to these estates and based on circumstances unique to these chapter 11 cases, Paul Hastings agreed on a reduced hourly rate for Luc Despins (from his standard hourly rate of \$2,225.00 to the reduced hourly rate of \$1,975.00) for the Fee Period.16 Other than this discount, the rates Paul Hastings charges for the services rendered by its professionals and paraprofessionals in these chapter 11 cases are comparable to the rates Paul Hastings charges for professional and paraprofessional services rendered in comparable nonbankruptcy related matters. In addition, when Paul Hastings' restructuring professionals and paraprofessionals work on non-bankruptcy matters, the firm generally charges their standard rate.

Furthermore, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to communicate with confidential informants, who provided valuable insight into the Individual Debtor's business operations.23 22 The supplemental Rule 2004 motions were filed by NPM because Paul Hastings was conflicted as to some of the discovery targets. To the extent Paul Hastings did not have a conflict, it assisted NPM in preparing the supplemental motion. 23 In light of the Individual Debtor's well-documented social media campaign against the Trustee, Paul Hastings attorneys, and creditors in these chapter 11 cases, the time entries attached to this Application have been redacted to remove the names of these informants. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 36 of 879 64. As noted in Paul Hastings' prior fee applications, much of the Trustee's investigation also required the expertise of Paul Hastings' Mandarin-speaking attorney in order to analyze thousands Mandarin-language documents (including WhatsApp, text messages, and videos). This work required not only Mandarin language skills but an understanding of the legal significance of these documents, which an outside translation service would not be able to provide. Paul Hastings' Mandarin-speaking attorney has also been critical for the Trustee to communicate with the numerous Mandarin-speaking informants that have reached out to the Trustee during the course of these chapter 11 cases. 65. To date, the Trustee's investigation (including as a result of discovery under Rule 2004, information provided by confidential informants, and corporate documents received from BVI registered agents) uncovered numerous assets that the Trustee believes are property of the Individual Debtor's estate, which the Trustee is seeking to recover for the benefit of the estate. In fact, as detailed further below, during the Fee Period, the Trustee continued to prosecute several adversary proceedings to recover such assets. 66. Unfortunately, as the Court is well aware, the Trustee's investigation continued to face vigorous opposition, at every turn, not only from the Individual Debtor, but also many of the targets of the Trustee's investigation (*i.e.*, the Individual Debtor's close family members, business associates, and employees), necessitating further motion practice. ### **III.

Among other things, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to monitor the Criminal Case and analyzed pleadings filed in the Criminal Case. 68. As the Court may recall, on May 3, 2024, the Individual Debtor's co-defendant and chief of staff Yvette Wang pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering. The statutory maximum term of imprisonment on the two counts is ten years. On January 6, 2025, the SDNY Court held a sentencing hearing with respect to Yvette Wang and imposed a sentence of ten years in prison as to Wang, finding Yvette Wang to be an "integral part of the conspiracy and knew what she was doing was illegal." Earlier, on July 16, 2024, a unanimous jury had found the Individual Debtor guilty on nine of the 12 charges, including multiple conspiracy charges and multiple wire fraud and securities fraud charges. The Individual Debtor's sentencing date remains pending. 69.

Among other things, Paul Hastings attorneys (a) coordinated with the Trustee's BVI counsel (Harneys) to address the appointment of the purported BVI joint liquidator and seek relief in the BVI court to rectify the member register for Ace Decade and Dawn State so as to reflect the Trustee is the true holder of the shares in Ace Decade and Dawn State, (b) prepared and reviewed the Trustee's affidavit filed with the BVI court, (c) analyzed legal issues relating to Defendant Rui Hao's continuing violation of the automatic stay, (d) continued to confer with the purported BVI joint liquidators regarding the Trustee's ownership of the Ace Decade and Dawn State shares, and (e) held internal conferences to discuss and strategize. 104. In addition, in coordination with NPM, Paul Hastings attorneys also analyzed issues relating to enforcing the default judgment entered against Yvette Wang. On January 31, 2025 (*i.e*., after the Fee Period), the Trustee filed his Ex Parte *Application for Pre-Judgment Remedy Against Defendant Yvette Wang* [Docket No. 86 in Adv. Proc. No. 23-05028], which the Court granted on February 4, 2025 [Docket No. 89 in Adv. Proc. No. 23-05028]. ### **XV. Defeng Cao Adversary Proceeding (Matter ID 00027)** i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$40,653.00 Total Hours: 26.40 105. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys prepared and filed the Trustee's complaint against Defeng Cao (the long-term boyfriend of the Debtor's daughter) [Adv. Proc. No. 24-05001] (the "Defeng Cao Adversary Proceeding"). In the Defeng Cao Adversary Proceeding, the Trustee seeks to recover six separate vehicles—three Harley Davidsons and one BMW motorcycle, as well as one Land Rover Defender and one Dodge Ram Pickup Truck which, while nominally held by the defendant, were fraudulently transferred to the defendant, or alternatively, are equitably owned by the Individual Debtor. 106. On September 9, 2024, the Court granted the Trustee's motion for judgment on the pleadings, holding that the motorcycles are property of the estate and requiring Mr. Cao to turn them over to the estate. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys handled the transfer of title of the four motorcycles to the Trustee and analyzed and strategized next steps in litigation in this adversary proceeding, including discussing settlement proposal with the defendant. ### **XVI. Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding (Matter ID 00028)** i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$524,561.00 Total Hours: 400.80 107. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prosecute the adversary proceeding commenced by the Trustee against more than forty entities—each nominally owned by a family member or associate of the Individual Debtor)—seeking rulings that such entities are *alter egos* of the Individual Debtor and/or their assets are beneficially owned by the Individual Debtor, such that their assets are property of the estate [Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249] (the "First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding"). 108. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with NPM, handled the hearing on the Trustee's motion for entry of default judgment against the Individual Debtor's son, *i.e.*, Qiang Guo, and K Legacy. On September 12, 2024, the Trustee obtained entries of default as against K Legacy and Qiang Guo, pursuant to which the Court held, among other things, that the ownership interests in K Legacy and the assets of K Legacy, including a luxury apartment in London, are property of the estate. In addition to obtaining a default judgment against K Legacy and the Debtor's son, during the Fee Period the Trustee also commenced and continued to prosecute proceedings in the BVI, *i.e.*, the jurisdiction where K Legacy is incorporated, to, among other things, seek rulings that the Trustee beneficially owns K Legacy and the London apartment. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 52 of 879 109. Furthermore, upon request of the Trustee, on September 13, 2024, the Clerk of the Court entered default against more than 15 defendants in the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding [Adv. Proc. Docket No. 79]. 110. In addition, during the Fee Period, in connection with the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding, Paul Hastings attorneys (a) analyzed motions to dismiss the original complaint and later the amended complaint in the adversary proceeding filed by certain defendants (the "Moving Defendants"), (b) analyzed legal issues in connection with severing the defendants against whom the Clerk of the Court entered default from this adversary proceeding, (c) prepared amended complaint and the Trustee's response to various defendants' motions to dismiss, (d) analyzed and researched legal issues in connection with the amended complaint, and (e) held internal conferences to discuss strategy. Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with NPM, handled status conference on the scheduling of responsive pleadings. Following the status conference on October 15, 2024, Paul Hastings prepared and filed the amended complaint [Docket No. 106 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249] on October 29, 2024 pursuant to the Court's scheduling order [Docket No. 102 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249]. On December 6, 2024 (*i.e.*, after the Fee Period), Paul Hastings attorneys filed the Trustee's objection to defendants' motions to dismiss amended complaint [Docket No. 121 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249]. 111. Pursuant to the Court's scheduling and severance order [Docket No. 102 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249], the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding is severed into two separate adversary proceedings, whereby the Trustee's claims against the Moving Defendants are to proceed under a new docket number assigned to the same judge [Adv. Proc. No. 24-05318] (the "Severed OAE Adversary Proceeding"). During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys also (a) handled settlement discussion with defendant Karin Maistrello who, as alleged in the ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 53 of 879 complaint, is the nominal sole owner of the defendant Alfa Global Ventures Limited, (b) prepared the Trustee's *Motion for Entry of Consented to Stipulated Judgment* with respect to defendant Karin Maistrello [Docket No. 104 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05318], and (c) handled the hearing on such motion on November 19, 2024. On November 26, 2024, the Court entered the stipulated judgment with respect to defendant Maistrello [Docket No. 109 in Adv. Proc. No. 24- 05318]. 112. Moreover, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to analyze legal issues relating to international service and coordinate service of the complaint and summons on the defendants. In connection information and/or exhibits cited in the complaint and subsequently the amended complaint that have been designated "Confidential" or "Highly Confidential" pursuant to the Protective Order [Docket Nos. 923, 3264], Paul Hastings attorneys also analyzed the confidentiality designation of such exhibits and redaction applied to the complaint and subsequently the amended complaint. 113. Furthermore, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prepare the new omnibus *alter ego* complaint, analyze factual and legal issues in connection with such new complaint, and hold internal conferences to further discuss and strategize. On December 23, 2024 (*i.e.*, after the Fee Period), Paul Hastings attorneys prepared and filed another adversary complaint [Docket No. 1 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05322] (the "Second Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding") against more than forty entities—each nominally owned by a family member or associate of the Individual Debtor)—seeking rulings that such entities are *alter egos* of the Individual Debtor and/or their assets are beneficially owned by the Individual Debtor, such that their assets are property of the estate. ### **XVII. Avoidance Actions (Matter ID 00029)** - i. Court Hearings (Task Code B155) Fees: \$44,026.50 Total Hours: 23.40 - 114. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys prepared for and attended numerous hearings and status conferences regarding the Avoidance Actions. The following hearings were recorded under Matter ID 00029, among others: - the August 13, 2024 hearing on the Trustee's first supplemental motion to extend deadline to file avoidance actions; - the September 6, 2024 status conference on appeals of the Bankruptcy Court's order extending the Trustee's deadline to file avoidance action; - the September 24, 2024 status conference on the mediation and avoidance action procedures order, the mediation stay, and issues relating to the defendants' motions to dismiss; - the November 19, 2024 hearing on the Trustee's motion for default judgment as to the Avoidance Action against Cirrus Design Corporation and Qiang Guo. - ii. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$1,190,681.50 Total Hours: 792.30 115. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with Kroll and NPM, continued to analyze potential avoidance actions claims (for instance, with respect to professional services firms) and conducted related research. Paul Hastings attorneys also assisted NPM with preparing additional Avoidance Action complaints. Ultimately, the Trustee has now filed a total of more than 300 Avoidance Actions seeking the avoidance of fraudulent and post-petition transfers made by the Individual Debtor through his shell companies. In order to minimize costs, the large majority of these complaints were prepared and filed by NPM. 116. Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with NPM, also (a) prepared and filed the Trustee's responses to various Avoidance Action defendants' motions to dismiss, (b) prepared and filed the Trustee's response to motion to withdraw the references filed by various Avoidance ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 55 of 879 Action defendants, (c) prepared and filed the Trustee's motion for judgment on the pleadings with respect to the Trustee's adversary complaint as against Zeisler & Zeisler, P.C, (d) analyzed other litigation-related issues, including appeals of the Court's order granting the Trustee's motion to extend deadline to file avoidance actions and responding to third party complaint filed in the avoidance actions, and (e) continued to meet and confer with counsel for Avoidance Action defendants. 117. As discussed above, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with NPM, prepared the Trustee's motion to extend the August 15, 2024 deadline for the Trustee to commence actions to avoid and recover fraudulent transfers and/or assert other estate causes of action (which motion was filed on July 19, 2024), and related motions to limit service. The Court granted this motion to extend deadline by order dated August 14, 2024. 118. Furthermore, on November 13, 2024 and November 20, 2024, respectively, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Trustee's motions for entry of default judgment in Avoidance Actions against Qiang Guo, the Debtor's son, with respect to more than \$20 million transfer from the Individual Debtor's *alter ego*, Lamp Capital, to Qiang Guo, and approximately **\$4 million** transfers from the Individual Debtor's *alter* egos, Lamp Capital, HCHK Technologies, and Leading Shine, for the benefit of Qiang Guo. 119. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys also prepared for and attended the September 24, 2024 status conference, following which, the Court entered an order further amending the avoidance action procedures order and scheduling joint briefing of motions to dismiss and motions for judgment on the pleadings [Docket No. 3577]. In this regard, Paul Hastings attorneys (a) reviewed and analyzed the joint defendants' motion to dismiss, (b) ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 56 of 879 prepared and filed the Trustee's objections to the joint defendants' motion to dismiss, and (c) further analyzed the joint defendant's joint reply. 120. In addition, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to meet and confer with counsel for Avoidance Action defendants as well as discussed and analyzed potential settlements and prepared settlement agreements. 121. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys also continued to analyze and coordinate the service of the Avoidance Action complaints on the respective defendants, including international service in accordance with the Hague Convention. ### **XVIII.Mediation (Matter ID 00030)** i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$112,642.00 Total Hours: 66.80 122. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorney, in coordination with NPM, (a) continued to prepare for and conduct mediation sessions, (b) analyzed legal issues and case law concerning the mediation and settlement, (c) prepared for mediation sessions, (d) prepared for and held discussions with Judge Tancredi, as the mediator, about the mediation process, and (e) held internal meetings to discuss strategy and analyze case materials in connection with mediation and potential settlements. ### **XIX. Forfeiture Issues (Matter ID 00031)** # i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$372,244.50 Total Hours: 210.70 123. In connection with the Individual Debtor's Criminal Case, the U.S. Government has seized and sought forfeiture of more than \$630 million in various accounts, as well as various other assets controlled by the Individual Debtor (the "Seized Assets") as identified in the third *Superseding Indictment* [Criminal Case Docket No. 307] and later in *the Consent Preliminary Order of Forfeiture as to Specific Property/Money Judgment* [Criminal Case Docket ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 57 of 879 No. 488]. The Seized Assets and/or the entities in whose name they were held are also subjects of various adversary proceedings commenced by the Trustee. Thus, navigating and resolving forfeiture issues with the U.S. Government is of critical importance to the interest of the estate and of the Individual Debtor's creditors, to whom the Trustee owes fiduciary duties. 124. In light of the above, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys (a) reviewed and analyzed legal issues and case law regarding criminal forfeiture, (b) prepared presentation slides and related materials, (c) held internal conferences to discuss and strategize, and (d) held meeting and discussion with the U.S. Government to discuss related issues. ### **XX. K Legacy (Matter ID 00032)** ### i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$88,554.00 Total Hours: 55.00 125. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with NPM, continued to prosecute the Trustee's claims as against K Legacy Limited ("K Legacy") and Qiang Guo. On September 12, 2024, the Court, upon motion of the Trustee, entered default judgment against K Legacy and Qiang Guo, pursuant to which the Court held, among other things, that the ownership interests in K Legacy and the assets of K Legacy, including the Individual Debtor's luxury apartment in London, are property of the estate [Docket No. 76 in Adv. Proc. No. 24-05249]. 126. In addition, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with the Trustee's BVI counsel, Harneys and Mr. James Morgan, continued to prosecute proceedings commenced by the Trustee in the BVI, *i.e.*, the jurisdiction where K Legacy is incorporated, to among other things, seek rulings that the Trustee beneficially owns K Legacy and the London apartment. ### ii. Investigations (Task Code B261) Fees: \$17,493.00 Total Hours: 9.80 127. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys continued to prosecute the Trustee's claims as against K Legacy and Qiang Guo. A critical aspect of the Trustee's investigation and litigation is to analyze the ownership and corporate structure of K Legacy, an entity organized in the BVI which purportedly holds title to the Individual Debtor's luxury apartment in London. 128. In light of the above, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with the Trustee's BVI counsel, Harneys, prepared a disclosure application in the BVI court with respect to K Legacy. ### **XXI. Swiss Proceedings (Matter ID 00033)** i. Investigations (Task Code B261) Fees: \$198,465.00 Total Hours: 134.30 129. As alleged by the U.S. Government in the Superseding Indictment, the Individual Debtor and his associates transferred and directed the transfer of hundreds of millions of dollars into and through more than approximately 500 accounts held in the names of at least 80 different entities or individually, including bank accounts in Switzerland. In addition, through his diligent investigation efforts, the Trustee has reason to believe that there are assets of the Individual Debtor's estate potentially located in Switzerland. 130. Following the recognition of the Individual Debtor's chapter 11 case in Switzerland by the Swiss court, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with the Trustee's Swiss counsel, Prager, (a) continued to conduct investigation into Individual Debtor's assets in Switzerland, (b) reviewed and analyzed legal issues relating to asset investigation in Switzerland, and (c) held internal conferences and conference with Prager to discuss the investigation and litigation strategy. ### **XXII. Cyprus Proceedings (Matter ID 00034)** i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$83,890.50 Total Hours: 59.90 131. As discussed above, in the course of his investigation into the Individual Debtor's financial affairs, the Trustee discovered assets (including real property) located, and transfers that took place, in Cyprus. As a result, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys prepared complaint against among others, Bouillor Holdings Limited ("Bouillor"), a Cyprus entity nominally owned by Qiang Guo, son of the Individual Debtor, to recover the Individual Debtor's luxurious high-rise apartment in Limassol, Cyprus (the "Bouillor Adversary Proceeding"). In the Bouillor Adversary Proceeding, the Trustee seeks, among other things, a ruling from this Court that the Individual Debtor is the true beneficial owner of Bouillor and its assets which include the luxurious apartment in Cyprus, and a ruling ordering turnover of Bouillor and its assets to the Trustee 132. In addition, Paul Hastings attorneys, in cooperation with the Trustee's Connecticut counsel, NPM, and Cyprus counsel, CP Law, (a) reviewed and analyzed legal issues relating to the Bouillor Adversary Proceeding, (b) coordinated service of process in Cyprus, and (c) prepared filings in Cyprus court in connection with the relief requested in the Bouillor Adversary Proceeding. ### **XXIII.Mauritius Proceedings (Matter ID 00035)** i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$49,367.50 Total Hours: 33.80 133. As discussed above, the Trustee has learned through his investigation that Himalaya International Clearing, one of the defendants in the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding, made an application in Mauritius to request the release of funds nominally held under Himalaya International Clearing's name in Silver Bank Limited, which is ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 60 of 879 subject to proceedings currently pending in the Chambers Commercial Division of the Supreme Court of Mauritius (the "Mauritius Action"). As the Court is well aware, the Trustee seeks a ruling from this Court in the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding that Himalaya International Clearing is the *alter ego* of and equitably owned by the Individual Debtor, and that therefore, the funds in the Himalaya International Clearing's account at Silver Bank are property of the estate. 134. In light of the above, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with the Trustee's Mauritius counsel, (a) reviewed and analyzed legal issues relating to the Mauritius Action, (b) prepared recognition application of the Trustee in Mauritius, and (c) held internal conferences and conference with Mauritius counsel to discuss case and investigation strategies. ### **XXIV. UAE (Matter ID 00036)** ### i. Investigations (Task Code B261) Fees: \$30,300.50 Total Hours: 20.80 135. As alleged by the U.S. Government in the Superseding Indictment, the Individual Debtor and his associates transferred and directed the transfer of hundreds of millions of dollars into and through more than approximately 500 accounts held in the names of at least 80 different entities or individually, including bank accounts in the UAE. In addition, through his diligent investigation efforts, the Trustee has reason to believe that there are assets of the Individual Debtor's estate potentially located in the UAE. 136. In light of the above, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in cooperationg with the Trustee's UAE counsel, Kobre & Kim, (a) continued his investigation into Individual Debtor's assets in the UAE, (b) reviewed and analyzed legal issues relating to the ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 61 of 879 asset investigation in the UAE, and (c) held internal conferences and conference with Kobre & Kim to discuss case and investigation strategies. ### **XXV. Hamilton UK Administration (Matter ID 00037)** ### i. General Litigation (Task Code B191) Fees: \$113,689.00 Total Hours: 72.00 137. As discussed above, the Trustee has learned through his investigation that Hamilton Capital Holding, one of the defendants in the First Omnibus Alter Ego Adversary Proceeding, entered into purported administration in the United Kingdom (the "Hamilton UK Administration") in or about August 2024. Based on review of documents relating to the administration, the Trustee has reason to believe that the Hamilton UK Administration is an attempt to recycle funds and redistribute them to the Individual Debtor, William Je, and associated entities by using the administration proceeding to "cleanse" such funds. As the Court may recall, the Individual Debtor and his associates attempted a similar strategy to recycle and redistribute funds with the HCHK Entities that commenced a New York state law assignment proceeding in April 2023, which the Trustee successfully sought to enjoin. 138. In light of the above, during the Fee Period, Paul Hastings attorneys, in coordination with the Trustee's UK counsel, (a) reviewed and analyzed filings and documents relating to the Hamilton UK Administration, (b) analyzed legal issues concerning the Hamilton UK Administration, (c) prepared filings in the UK court, and (d) held internal conferences and conference with UK counsel to discuss case and investigation strategies. ### **REASONABLENESS OF COMPENSATION** 139. 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 ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 62 of 879 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).24 140. 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 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). 141. 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.*, 25 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 24 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). 25 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. # Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 63 of 879 (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.26 *See 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); *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"). 142. In accordance with the factors enumerated in section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable case law, the amount requested herein by Paul Hastings is fair and reasonable, as set forth below and otherwise in this Application. # a. **Time and Labor Required** Paul Hastings billed a total of \$5,542,465.25 and 3,998.40 hours of professional and paraprofessional services during the Fee Period. As evidenced by this Application, Paul Hastings professionals and paraprofessionals worked diligently and efficiently without unnecessary duplication of efforts throughout the Fee Period. A small group of the same Paul Hastings attorneys was utilized for the vast majority of the work in order to minimize the costs of intra-Paul Hastings communication and education about the Debtors' circumstances. Whenever 26 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). possible, Paul Hastings sought to minimize the cost of Paul Hastings' services by utilizing talented junior attorneys and paraprofessionals to handle the more routine aspects of the assignments. The services were performed in an effective and efficient manner commensurate with the complexity, exigency, and importance of the issues involved. In addition, Paul Hastings' representation has required it to balance the need to provide quality services with the need to act quickly and represent the Trustee and the Genever Debtors in an effective, efficient, and timely manner. Paul Hastings submits that the hours spent were reasonable given the size and complexity of these chapter 11 cases, the significant, and often urgent, legal and business issues raised, and the numerous pleadings filed in the chapter 11 cases. Furthermore, as noted detailed above, the Trustee and the Genever Debtors also retained NPM as local and conflicts counsel in order to provide services to the Trustee and the Genever Debtors in a costeffective manner. Paul Hastings and NPM have coordinated and will continue to coordinate each firm's respective responsibilities in connection with the representation of the Trustee and the Genever Debtors. # b. **Novelty and Difficulty of the Questions** Paul Hastings tasked knowledgeable attorneys to research, analyze, and advise the Trustee and the Genever Debtors on difficult and complex issues during the Fee Period, including issues related to bankruptcy and litigation. Most notably, as detailed in this Application, Paul Hastings investigated complex estate claims and causes of action in order to recover assets of these estates. ### c. **Skill Requisite to Perform the Legal Services Properly** Paul Hastings believes that its recognized expertise in the areas of financial restructuring and corporate reorganization, its ability to draw from highly experienced professionals in other areas of Paul Hastings' practice, and its creative approach to the resolution of issues has contributed to the effective administration of these chapter 11 cases and benefited the Trustee, the Genever Debtors, their estates, and their unsecured creditors. Due to the nature and complexity of the legal issues presented by these chapter 11 cases, Paul Hastings was required to exhibit a high degree of legal skill in areas related to, among others, bankruptcy and litigation. # d. **Preclusion of Other Employment by Applicant Due to Acceptance of the Case** Due to the size of Paul Hastings' restructuring and litigation departments, Paul Hastings' representation of the Trustee and the Genever Debtors did not preclude its acceptance of new clients, but the demands for immediate and substantive action in these chapter 11 cases imposed significant burdens on Paul Hastings professionals and paraprofessionals working concurrently on other matters. That said, for the Trustee, his engagement as a chapter 11 trustee has, for all practical purposes precluded other employment given that this matter is taking up most of his time. # e. **Customary Fee** Other than the hourly rate for Luc A. Despins (which has been reduced from his standard hourly rate of \$2,225.00 to \$1,975.00), the fees charged by Paul Hastings in these chapter 11 cases are billed in accordance with its existing billing rates and procedures in effect during the Fee Period. The rates Paul Hastings charges for the services rendered by its professionals and paraprofessionals in these chapter 11 cases are comparable to the rates Paul Hastings charges for professional and paraprofessional services rendered in comparable nonbankruptcy related matters. Moreover, when Paul Hastings' restructuring professionals and paraprofessionals work on nonbankruptcy matters, the firm generally charges their standard rate. Such fees are reasonable based on the customary compensation charged by comparably skilled practitioners in comparable nonbankruptcy cases in a competitive national legal market. In addition, the firm's customary hourly rates and rate structure reflect that restructuring and related matters typically involve great complexity, numerous tasks requiring a high level of expertise, and severe time pressures, as is the case here. # f. **Whether the Fee Is Fixed or Contingent** Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 330 and 331, all fees sought by professionals employed under Bankruptcy Code section 1103 are subject to final approval by the Court, and are subject to adjustment depending on the services rendered and the results obtained. Of particular note, payment of Paul Hastings' fees here was contingent in two respects: (1) the recovery of assets for the benefit of the estates and (2) monetizing such assets. At the outset of these chapter 11 cases, there was no assurance whatsoever that assets would be recovered and monetized to allow for the payment of estate professionals. Accordingly, Paul Hastings' compensation was, in essence, a contingency fee arrangement. The risk that Paul Hastings assumed by representing the Trustee and the Genever Debtors further supports the reasonableness of Paul Hastings' compensation. # g. **Time Limitations Imposed by the Client or Other Circumstances** During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings was required to analyze and address certain issues arising in these chapter 11 cases under compressed timelines. For example, given the Individual Debtor's track record of moving assets to keep them out of reach of creditors, it was critical that Paul Hastings act quickly on information obtained during the Trustee's investigation in order to freeze assets. # h. **Amount Involved and Results Obtained** Paul Hastings professionals and paraprofessionals worked diligently to maximize value for these chapter 11 estates. During the Fee Period, and as described in the summary of services herein, Paul Hastings was instrumental in analyzing potential sources of recovery for the benefit of these estates. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings was able to secure several key rulings from the Court, which rulings will serve as a beachhead for future asset recovery efforts. The reasonableness of Paul Hastings' fees must be evaluated in light of this important strategic factor. # i. **Experience, Reputation, and Ability of Attorneys** Paul Hastings is consistently recognized as a top tier law firm in the field of business reorganizations and liquidations under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings solicited the skill and expertise of its professionals and paraprofessionals. Paul Hastings professionals have actively represented debtors, creditors, and creditors' committees, as well as other parties in interest, in a number of the nation's largest chapter 11 cases as well as in connection with cross-border restructurings. Paul Hastings' extensive experience enables it to perform the services described herein competently and expeditiously. In addition to its expertise in the area of corporate reorganization, Paul Hastings has called upon the expertise of its attorneys in other practice areas as required during the Fee Period. # j. **"Undesirability" of the Cases** As detailed in this Application, the Individual Debtor's in-court and out-of-court tactics illustrate the undesirability of this engagement, which involved harassment of the Trustee and Paul Hastings attorneys (including death threats against the Trustee). As a result, Paul Hastings was forced to incur hundreds of thousands of dollars in cyber security measures (the cost of which are not part of the expenses for which Paul Hastings is seeking reimbursement in this Application). In addition, prior to the Court granting the First Interim Fee Application at the end of June 2023, Paul Hastings was unable to be paid for its fees for nearly a year. ### k. **Nature and Length of Professional Relationship** Paul Hastings has been rendering professional services to (a) the Trustee since its retention as counsel effective as of July 8, 2022, (b) Genever (BVI) since its retention as counsel effective as of October 11, 2022, and (c) Genever (US) since its retention as counsel effective as of November 3, 2022. 143. Paul Hastings respectfully submits that the services for which it seeks compensation in this Fee Application were, at the time rendered, necessary for and beneficial to the Debtors' estates and their creditors and were rendered to maximize, protect, and preserve value for the Debtors' estates and all parties in interest. Paul Hastings believes that it provided services economically, effectively, and efficiently, and obtained results beneficial to the Debtor's estate and his creditors. Paul Hastings further submit that the compensation requested herein is reasonable in light of the nature, extent, and value of the services rendered during the Fee Period. 144. Paul Hastings also notes that the rates charged during the Fee Period are reasonable. In fact, this Court held that Paul Hastings' New York rates are reasonable because ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 67 of 879 Paul Hastings was retained at New York rates and these cases are extraordinary within this District. *See Order Denying Motion for Stay Pending Appeal* [Docket No. 1791]. 145. All fees incurred by Paul Hastings during the Fee Period were actual, reasonable, and necessary in the performance of services for the Trustee and the Genever Debtors. Paul Hastings respectfully requests approval of the compensation sought herein. ### **ACTUAL AND NECESSARY DISBURSEMENTS** 146. As set forth in Exhibit C hereto, Paul Hastings incurred and disbursed \$215,048.30 as expenses in providing professional services during the Fee Period. These expenses include approximately \$23,857.44 for online legal research (*i.e.*, LEXIS and Westlaw). Because Paul Hastings believes that online legal research (*e.g.*, LEXIS and Westlaw) is far more cost-efficient than manual research using hard-bound volumes, Paul Hastings encourages computerized legal research even though it is not a profit center for Paul Hastings. To be clear, Paul Hastings does not charge a mark-up on the LEXIS and Westlaw charges, but merely passes on the costs of such third-party services. Moreover, as it relates to outside professional services, mailing, and other service-related expenses, the Trustee and Paul Hastings are merely passing on the costs of such third-party services, without any mark-up.27 - 147. Additional necessary expenses included: - \$149,315.59 for certain outside professional services, such as document review services by UnitedLex; - \$14,047.50 for process servers (*e.g.*, Ancillary Legal Corporation) to serve, among other things, the subpoenas issued pursuant to the Rule 2004 orders entered by this Court; - \$6,788.44 for UPS/courier service, including service of pleadings required to be served in hard copy format; and 27 Documentation of these expenses will be made available to the Court upon request. - \$2,655.30 for court reporting services; - \$2,312.56 for document reproductions, namely \$1,586.56 for b/w reproductions (at 8 cents per page) and \$726.00 for color reproductions (at 20 cents per page); - \$702.73 for corporate document retrieval services (including United Corporate Service and Corp2000) with respect to various Kwok-related entities. 148. During the Fee Period, Paul Hastings utilized UnitedLex -- a third party vendor that specializes in discovery services including document processing, storage, review services, and distribution -- to conduct document review of the documents produced in the chapter 11 cases, including the hundreds of thousands of discovery documents received by the Trustee to date in connection with his investigation. 149. Using their own contract attorneys and review team managers, UnitedLex provides an efficient and economic means of reviewing large document sets at hourly rates significantly lower than Paul Hastings. UnitedLex's document review team charges hourly rates ranging from \$40 to \$55 (for non-management roles) and \$150 (for management role), which is substantially less than Paul Hastings' hourly rates and, moreover, is even less than the hourly rates of associates of local Connecticut counsel (*i.e.*, NPM), whose hourly rates range from \$220 to \$425. For all these reasons, Paul Hastings believes that utilizing the UnitedLex document review team greatly benefits these estates by reducing document review costs. The Trustee also previewed Paul Hastings' use of UnitedLex with the U.S. Trustee, who had no objection thereto (without the Trustee having to file a separate retention application for UnitedLex). The Trustee and Paul Hastings also disclosed in the *Fourth Supplemental Declaration of Disinterestedness of Luc A. Despins* [Docket No. 1435] that Paul Hastings would utilize UnitedLex's contract attorney services. ### Case 22-50073 Doc 4157 Filed 02/24/25 Entered 02/24/25 19:13:24 Page 69 of 879 150. The time constraints imposed by the circumstances of the matters handled by Paul Hastings during the Fee Period required its attorneys and other employees, at times, to devote substantial time during the evenings and on weekends to perform legal services on behalf of the Trustee. These extraordinary services were essential to meet deadlines, timely respond to inquiries on a daily basis, and satisfy the Trustee's needs and demands. Attorneys and other Paul Hastings employees who worked late in the evenings or on weekends were reimbursed for their reasonable meal and transportation costs in accordance with firm policy. Paul Hastings' regular practice is not to include components for those charges in overhead when establishing billing rates, but rather to charge its clients for these and all other out-of-pocket disbursements incurred during the regular course of the provision of legal services. 151. In accordance with *Appendix D (Guidelines for Compensation and Expense Reimbursement of Professionals)* to the Local Rules, reproduction charges have been capped at 20 cents per page.28 152. The expenses requested herein are customarily charged to non-bankruptcy clients of Paul Hastings. Additionally, the expenses incurred by Paul Hastings to third parties are limited to the actual amounts billed to, or paid by, Paul Hastings on behalf of the estates. 153. Paul Hastings believes the rates for charges incurred are the market rates that the majority of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, Paul Hastings believes that such charges are in accordance with the American Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines, as set forth in the ABA's Statement of Principles, dated January 12, 1995, regarding billing for disbursements and other charges. 28 Generally, Paul Hastings charges 8 cents per page for black-and-white reproductions and 50 cents per page for color reproductions. In accordance with Appendix D to the Local Rules, Paul Hastings has reduced the charge for color reproductions to 20 cents per page. 154. The expenses incurred in providing professional services in the Chapter 11 Case were necessary, economical, and justified under the circumstances. # **RESPONSE TO THE U.S. TRUSTEE GUIDELINES** 155. Paul Hastings responds to the questions set forth in Paragraph C.5. of the U.S. Trustee Guidelines as follows: | Question: | Did you agree to any variations from, or alternatives to, your
standard or customary billing rates, fees, or terms for services
pertaining to this engagement that were provided during the
Fee Period? | | | |-----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--|--| | Response: | Yes. As a courtesy to these estates and based on
circumstances unique to these chapter 11 cases, during the Fee
Period, Paul Hastings agreed to voluntary fee reductions
aggregating \$99,319.00, including the following: | | | | | (i)
Paul Hastings is not seeking allowance or payment at
this time of the fees incurred twelve (12) timekeepers
who billed less than five (5) hours during the Fee
Period. The total amount of such fees is \$10,119.00.
The time billed by these timekeepers was reasonable,
and Paul Hastings reserves the right to seek allowance
of these fees based on the facts and circumstances of
these cases, including, without limitation, if objections
are interposed to the allowance of Paul Hastings' fees
and expenses. | | | | | (ii)
As a result of the agreed-upon reduction in Luc A.
Despins' hourly rate (from his standard hourly rate of
\$2,225 to the reduced hourly rate of \$1,975), an
additional \$89,100.00 in fees have been waived. | | | | Question: | If the fees sought in this application as compared to the fees
budgeted for the Fee Period are higher by 10% or more, did
you discuss the reasons for the variation with the client. | | | | Response: | Not applicable. | | | | Question: | Have any of the professionals included in this application
varied their hourly rate based on the geographic location of the
bankruptcy case? | | | | | | | | | Question: | Does the application include time or fees related to reviewing
or revising time records or preparing, reviewing, or revising
invoices? (This is limited to work involved in preparing and
editing billing records that would not be compensable outside
of bankruptcy and does not include reasonable fees for
preparing a fee application.) If so, please quantify by hours
and fees. | |-----------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Response: | The Application does not include time for preparing,
reviewing, or revising time records. However, the Application
does include approximately 12.6 hours and associated fees of
approximately \$19,989.50 related to preparing, reviewing, and
revising Paul Hastings' fee statements and ensuring time
entries are properly categorized by matter number and task
code. On average, approximately 2.1 hours were spent on
each of the six monthly fee statements prepared during the Fee
Period. | | Question: | Does this application include time or fees for reviewing time
records to redact any privileged or other confidential
information? If so, please quantify by hours and fees. | | Response: | No. | | Question: | If the application includes any rate increases since retention:
(i) Did your client review and approve those rate increases in
advance? (ii) Did your client agree when retaining the law
firm to accept all future rates increases? If not, did you inform
your client that they need not agree to modified rates or terms
in order to have you continue the representation consistent
with ABA Formal Ethics Opinion 11-458? | | Response: | As is customary, Paul Hastings adjusts its hourly rates
periodically based upon (i) the advancing seniority of its
professionals and paraprofessionals, (ii) the current market for
legal services, (iii) the rates charged for comparable non‐
bankruptcy services, and (iv) the firm's analysis of the hourly
rates being charged by professionals in other law firms.
Effective January 1, 2023, September 1, 2023, and January 1,
2024, Paul Hastings adjusted its hourly rates consistent with
the Retention Order [Docket Nos. 668 and 1376] and the | 2450]. *Notices of Change in Hourly Rates of Paul Hastings LLP, Counsel to Chapter 11 Trustee* [Docket Nos. 1251, 2075, and ### **RESERVATION OF RIGHTS** 156. To the extent that time or disbursement charges for services rendered or expenses incurred during the Fee Period are not included in this Application, or the Trustee and Paul Hastings have for any reason not sought compensation or reimbursement with respect to such services (including, as noted above, services related to the preparation and prosecution of the Civil RICO Adversary Proceeding), Paul Hastings reserves the right to request compensation and reimbursement for such services in a supplemental or future application in the Debtors' chapter 11 cases. Also, Paul Hastings 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. ### **NO PRIOR REQUEST** 157. No previous request for the relief sought herein has been made to this Court or any other court.

The blended hourly rate for Paul Hastings' timekeepers who billed to these chapter 11 cases during the Fee Period was approximately \$1,386 per hour. A detailed comparison of these rates follows: | Category of Timekeeper | Blended Hourly Rate | | | |----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|--| | | Non-Bankruptcy Matters
Blended Hourly Rate | Debtor Blended Hourly
Rate2 | | | Partner | \$1,703 | \$1,865 | | | Counsel | \$1,516 | \$1,839 | | | Associate | \$1,073 | \$1,199 | | | Paraprofessionals | \$468 | \$557 | | | All Timekeepers Aggregated | \$1,289 | \$1,386 | | 1 It is the nature of Paul Hastings' practice that certain non-bankruptcy engagements require the advice and counsel of professionals and paraprofessionals who work primarily within Paul Hastings' restructuring group. Accordingly, Non-Bankruptcy Matters consist of matters for which Paul Hastings' timekeepers represented a client in matters other than court-approved engagements as counsel for the debtor, the chapter 11 trustee, or an official committee under the Bankruptcy Code. As such, the Non-Bankruptcy Matters include, in part, time billed by Paul Hastings' timekeepers who work primarily within Paul Hastings' restructuring group. 2 Luc A. Despins brings to the Title III Cases over 36 years of experience representing debtors and creditors in high profile and complex restructuring matters. Given the complexity and challenges faced by the Trustee in these cases, a significant amount of time by senior partners, of counsel, and senior associates, including Mr. Despins, Nicholas Bassett, Alexander Bongartz, Shlomo Maza, and Douglass Barron has been necessary. Because their rates are at the higher end of the range of rates billed by Paul Hastings partners, of counsel, and associates, respectively, and in light of the fact that a significant amount of senior partner, of counsel, and senior associate time has been required for this engagement, the blended rate for this case moved to the higher end of the range of rates billed by Paul Hastings. Finally, the blended attorney hourly rate for the Fee Period is not comparable to the average hourly rate in other matters because it does not reflect numerous cost-saving measures, including the delegation of a variety of matters to NPM, matters for which otherwise more junior Paul Hastings attorneys with lower hourly rates would have been used, thereby reducing Paul Hastings' blended hourly rate. ### **EXHIBIT B1** ### **Summary of Timekeepers Included in this Application** | Name | Department; Date of
