4 (Pages 10 - 13)

Page 14 1 C. JALBERT 2 subject matters of those e-mails? 3 A. It was looking at the -- all of 4 -- not all of them. Many of my e-mails, 5 the SOFA's -- the statement of financial 6 affairs -- the schedules, the global notes, 7 the global notes and specific notes, most 8 of the pleadings to employ professionals, 9 particularly ours, the motion for the DIP 10 financing, many of the objections, not all 11 of them. I'm trying to think if there's 12 anything else. I can't think of anything 13 off the top beyond that -- 14 Q. Thank you. That's helpful. So 15 you mentioned that you spoke to your 16 attorneys, Ben and Ken? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. When did you speak to them? 19 A. Well, we were delayed a little 20 bit so I had a few minutes this morning 21 with Ken. I spoke with Ben briefly last 22 night. Again, this morning on -- unrelated 23 to the deposition and I had previously 24 spoken to Ken probably one or two times 25 over the last few days, give or take. Page 15 1 C. JALBERT 2 Q. Were each of these interactions 3 over the phone? 4 A. Until today, yes. 5 Q. About how long did you spend 6 preparing with your attorneys in connection 7 with your preparation for this deposition? 8 A. I would have to hazard a guess. 9 I don't have my time records in front of 10 me. 11 Q. Like two hours, ten hours? 12 A. My guess is in the two to four 13 hour range. No more than that. 14 Q. Did you speak to anyone else 15 other than the folks that you mentioned at 16 Verdolino and Lowey and your attorneys 17 regarding this deposition? 18 A. Our IT person, Tim McDonald who 19 assisted in the search -- the electronic 20 search of e-mails and records and worked 21 with the Brown Rudnick IT person to send 22 everything over. Aside from having him try 23 and get the records, we didn't have any 24 discussion of the case facts and 25 circumstances or anything. Page 16 1 C. JALBERT 2 Q. Anyone else besides the people 3 that we've talked about? 4 A. Regarding the -- just regarding 5 the deposition? 6 Q. Yes. 7 A. No. 8 Q. You haven't spoke to the 9 debtor? 10 A. About the deposition? 11 Q. About the deposition. 12 A. No. 13 Q. Have you ever met the debtor? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. When did you meet the debtor? 16 A. The continued meeting of 342 -- 17 or 341 meeting which was I think Wednesday, 18 the first time I met him. 19 Q. Is that the only time you met 20 the debtor? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. Outside of the 341 proceeding, 23 did you interact with the debtor? 24 A. No. 25 Q. I just want to cover a little Page 17 1 C. JALBERT 2 bit of your background. Can you talk about 3 your educational history since high school? 4 A. I graduated from Western 5 Connecticut High School in 1979. I went to 6 Boston College. Graduated Boston College 7 with a bachelor of science and degree in 8 accountancy in 1983. I went to work for 9 Arthur Andersen from June of '83 till 10 August 31 of '87. On September 1 of 1987, 11 I started at the precursor of what is now 12 Verdolino and Lowey and I've been there in 13 the 35 years since and during that time, I 14 I've gone to many, many, many professional 15 CPE type courses of all sorts of flavors. 16 Q. What do you mean by CPE? 17 A. A continuing professional 18 education. 19 Q. Is that a required procedure 20 for any type of certification that you 21 have? 22 A. It's -- some of it is required 23 for my certification as a certified 24 insolvency restructuring advisor. The rest 25 are just to maintain my professional 85

Just for my own | 7 | we do an investigation, the lawyer's | | 8 | understanding, what is the difference | 8 | thinking ahead, look, you're going to do an | | 9 | between being employed by the debtor versus | 9 | investigation, we think this is what we're | | 10 | Brown Rudnick? | 10 | going to find.

They may have | 6 | first bankruptcy. It's not my 50th | | 7 | payroll taxes un-filed, sales taxes | 7 | bankruptcy. It's not my 100th bankruptcy. | | 8 | un-filed, depending on the business, bottle | 8 | I had a fairly good idea of what the issues | | 9 | deposits un-filed and unkept. They | 9 | were going to be and I took the first pass. | | 10 | probably need a lot more work on budgeting | 10 | I don't recall whether there were changes | | 11 | and keeping the business operating. Does | 11 | made after that or not. | | 12 | it have sufficient cash, what are the 13 | 12 | Q.<br>Generally, what is the scope of | | 13 | week budgets, the one year budgets. Cash | 13 | Verdolino and Lowey's work in this case? | | 14 | collateral where it's -- you've got a | 14 | A.<br>In this case? | | 15 | secured creditor who is frequently -- maybe | 15 | Q.<br>Yes. | | 16 | not against the debtor but maybe not with | 16 | A.<br>Well, the retention papers | | 17 | it either. So -- so there's just -- it's a | 17 | speak for themselves. So if you want to go | | 18 | totally different beast. In this | 18 | line by line, put that in front of me. | | 19 | particular case, some individuals have | 19 | Q.<br>Sure. | | 20 | operating real estate or something like | 20 | A.<br>To date, we've been focused | | 21 | that but they rarely have an operating | 21 | on -- first, my recollection is the SOFA's | | 22 | business that's multi country, multi state | 22 | and the schedules pretty much | | 23 | with employees and all sorts of reporting | 23 | simultaneously. I mean they were due the | | 24 | requirements, compliance requirements. | 24 | same day, same time. So that was first. | | 25 | Q.<br>Is it fair to say the financial | 25 | Following -- immediately following that, I | | | Page 42 | | Page 44 | | | | | | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C.

Trying to | | 10 | us. | 10 | think if we've done anything -- oh | | 11 | Q.<br>Because you drafted the | 11 | assistance in preparing for -- or | | 12 | engagement letter? | 12 | participation in preparing, to a small | | 13 | A.<br>I'm sure there were discussions | 13 | degree, for the debtor to attend the 341 | | 14 | with counsel. I don't remember the | 14 | meeting. We attended the first day 341 | | 15 | discussions specifically but this is not | 15 | meeting by telephone. My colleague, Matt | | 16 | the first time I've drafted a retention -- | 16 | Flynn and I, attended the second day of the | | 17 | at least part of the retention papers. | 17 | 341 hearing which was this past Wednesday | | 18 | Obviously, I'm not a lawyer. I don't know | 18 | on a -- how do I want to call it -- we | | 19 | all of that goes into retention papers but | 19 | didn't bill for our time. I went as an | | 20 | as to the duties, typically, I have an | 20 | observer. We knew we weren't going to be | | 21 | input as to what the duties are. I'm sure | 21 | participating but we wanted to be around to | | 22 | we took the first stab at it and in review | 22 | see what took place, meet people and then | | 23 | by Brown Rudnick, they might have made some | 23 | this deposition. | | 24 | changes.

Page 46 1 C. JALBERT 2 step. You talked about drafting everyone's 3 engagement papers in connection with this 4 matter. 5 A. Well, drafting our engagement 6 papers. Everyone was focusing on their own 7 and I needed help, because I'm not a 8 lawyer, on mine. 9 Q. Then you talked about Matt 10 Flynn's responsibilities in connection with 11 the monthly operating report. 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Finally, you talked about 14 preparing for the 341 hearing and attending 15 the 341 hearings? 16 A. Meeting, yes. 17 Q. Can you describe a little bit 18 more your responsibilities in connection 19 with those 341 meetings? 20 MR. AULET: I would just 21 caution the Witness not to disclose 22 any work product or conversations 23 with attorneys. 24 A. On the first day of the 341 25 meeting, it was just thought that we should Page 47 1 C. JALBERT 2 participate because it was unclear what was 3 going to arise and they didn't know if it 4 would be something that we would need. 5 Q. Setting aside your 6 conversations with your attorneys, what -- 7 did you have any understanding about what 8 might arise during the first day of the 341 9 hearing that might require your 10 participation? 11 A. I've attended an awful lot of 12 341 meetings over my career. Anything can 13 happen at a 341 meeting because it's open 14 to every creditor and god only knows what 15 takes place. 16 Q. Did you anticipate having to 17 participate or ask questions during the 18 341? 19 A. I think we were asked to be on 20 the phone. I didn't have a participation 21 one way or another. 22 MS. ARONSSON: The Court 23 Reporter is going to hand you what is 24 being marked as Jalbert Exhibit 4. 25 (Whereupon, Debtor's Page 48 1 C. JALBERT 2 Application was marked as Jalbert 3 Exhibit 4 for identification as of 4 this date by the Reporter.) 5 MS. ARONSSON: For the record, 6 this is a document entitled Debtors 7 Application for Authorization to 8 Retain and Employ Verdolino and Lowey 9 PC as Financial Advisor. It was 10 filed in this case as Docket 90. 11 Q. Mr. Jalbert, feel free to look 12 at this document. 13 A. Is there something you're 14 trying to point me to? 15 Q. Do you recognize this document? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. What is it? 18 A. Debtor's Application for 19 Authorization to Retain and Employ 20 Verdolino and Lowey PC as Financial 21 Advisor. 22 Q. Turning to Page 18 of the 23 document, using the page numbers at the top 24 of the page, what is this document? 25 A. Affidavit of Craig R. Jalbert Page 49 1 C. JALBERT 2 in Support of Debtor's Application for 3 Authorization to Retain and Employ 4 Verdolino and Lowey PC as Financial 5 Advisor. 6 Q. So you recognize this as your 7 affidavit you filed -- 8 A. I do. 9 Q. Turning to Page 21, the table 10 -- I'm interested in the table at the 11 bottom of the page. 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Just stepping back I think you 14 mentioned folks at Verdolino who were 15 involved, Matt Flynn -- in this case, Matt 16 Flynn, Mary Jo Schindler and yourself. Is 17 there anyone else involved in this matter 18 at Verdolino and Lowey? 19 A. I mentioned Tim MacDonald, our 20 IT person who is only involved with -- 21 related to the deposition, the search of 22 our e-mails and the server records and 23 everything and getting it ported over to 24 Brown Rudnick to be then sent to you folks. 25 Q. Anyone else at Verdolino and

So we'll have tax people involved<br>in the preparation of the income taxes and | | 6 | Q.<br>In connection with this matter | 6 | I would have to go down the list of -- and | | 7 | specifically, what do you expect the | 7 | be able to predict exactly what's going to | | 8 | principal to be doing? | 8 | take place but we're very efficient, very | | 9 | A.<br>I assisted in preparation of | 9 | accustomed.

Presupposing that there is a DIP loan? 16 Q. Yes. 17 A. It would -- as repeating, obviously, I would be the signatory on the account. There would be bookkeepers and staff associated with preparing the checks, preparing the reports and reporting to all the parties that be. Some -- I imagine the committee would want to know -- generally, they would like to know on a weekly or biweekly basis what receipts and Page 67 1 C. JALBERT disbursements are, major creditors might feel the same way. So whatever the -- whatever the case is, reporting requirements as they develop, we would take care of that. I don't know what they would be. Aside from the minimum requirement, the monthly operating report. 9 Q. What is Verdolino and Lowey's run rate up until this point? 11 A. What's a run rate? 12 Q. How much has Verdolino and Lowey billed to this matter? 14 A. We've billed zero so far. 15 Q. How much value does Verdolino anticipate it has already billed in this case? 18 A. Are you asking for a WIP to date? 20 Q. What is a WIP to date? 21 A. Work in process hours? 22 Q. Yes, please. 23 A. I have no idea. 24 Q. Does Verdolino and Lowey have any agreement with anyone regarding who Page 68 1 C. JALBERT will pay the fees in the event the DIP loan does not occur? 4 A. No. 5 Q. Let's turn to the next line item, "preparation, review and analysis of monthly operating reports and/or quarterly reporting". Do you see that? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. You referenced earlier a monthly operating report that was recently filed in this case? 13 A. Yes. 14 Q. Is that the type of work anticipated in this-- in connection with this line item? 17 A. Well, going forward, there's going to be a lot more than a monthly operating report because there's going to be -- well, presumably, if there is a DIP and if the case continues, there's going to be receipts and disbursements and even if there aren't, the monthly operating report and the US Trustees Office requires that -- the disclosure of all estate professionals Page 69 1 C. JALBERT as they accrue throughout the case. So it didn't happen in the February one because of the scrambling of SOFA's and schedules and 341 meeting and everything else. Going forward, we're going to have to have a report on a monthly basis and a cumulative basis what everybody's fees are, what the cash in and cash out is and part of the monthly operating report calculates the fees due to the United States Trustee Program and then the monthly operating report, you typically have to also -- you attach to it insurance binders, if things expired. If they weren't usually -- usually, I put them in anyway just to avoid confusion and someone looking for it. And then complete copies of the bank statements. The United States Trustees Office also wants balance sheet and P&L and cash flow and what the accounts payable, accounts receivable and all the various -- so the first one was filed. Future ones are going to have a lot more information. 25 Q. Taking a step back, can you

| 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | |----|----------------------------------------------|----|---------------------------------------------| | 2 | just explain, generally, what a monthly | 2 | A.<br>The United States Trustee | | 3 | operating report is in a Chapter 11 | 3 | issues bills predicated on the monthly | | 4 | individual case? | 4 | operating report, to what the expenses that | | 5 | A.<br>It's the same or pretty close | 5 | meet the definition of a disbursement on | | 6 | to the same I think as the operating report | 6 | account of the U.S. Trustees form, they | | 7 | in a commercial case. It looked like it to | 7 | combine the three months in every calender | | 8 | me anyway's. But it's the standard -- | 8 | quarter. So for us, it will be the | | 9 | during the pendency of the case, the | 9 | February 15th, the February 28th stub | | 10 | operating report, that is required by the | 10 | period, plus the March 1 to March 31, that | | 11 | US Trustees Program, up until the case is | 11 | MOR. The sum of those 45 days will be in a | | 12 | dismissed, converted or confirmed. | 12 | bill from the U.S. Trustees Office and, | | 13 | Q.<br>So the procedures that you | 13 | assuming it's correct, would have to be | | 14 | described relating to the work on the | 14 | paid before the end of -- I believe this | | 15 | monthly operating report, that presupposes | 15 | month. | | 16 | the approval of the DIP loan and managing | 16 | Q.<br>So is it fair to say that | | 17 | of those funds. Is that right? | 17 | Verdolino and Lowey is retained to review | | 18 | A.<br>Well, the monthly operating | 18 | the quarterly report? | | 19 | report is going to be due irrespective of | 19 | A.<br>I don't know if it's listed in | | 20 | that. The -- the accrual of the -- of the | 20 | here specifically but certainly the monthly | | 21 | fees of committee counsel, us, the | 21 | operating report is the form that is the | | 22 | accountant advisor, the debtor, debtor | 22 | input to the United States Trustees Office | | 23 | committee, others, whoever might be paid by | 23 | in order to create the bill. So we know -- | | 24 | the Estate including th ordinary course. | 24 | and it's the fees are statutorily | | 25 | Even if there's not a DIP, that has to be | 25 | determined based on the level of | | | | | | | | Page 70 | | Page 72 | | 1 | C.

You continue to file | 8 | debtor is going to do and again, it has no | | 9 | C-corporation returns if they're a | 9 | bearing on the Estate and no bearing on | | 10 | C-corporation, S Corp., partnership, | 10 | Verdolino and Lowey but the Estate will | | 11 | whatever the case may be and their year end | 11 | have to file -- I'll recommend that it file | | 12 | remains whatever their year end was | 12 | a federal return. The debtor is a resident | | 13 | established pre-petition. In a bankruptcy | 13 | of Connecticut so there would be a | | 14 | estate, the Estate is separate and distinct | 14 | Connecticut estate tax return and if, for | | 15 | from the individual. The individual has to | 15 | some reason, there was income from another | | 16 | continue to file his own individual income | 16 | state, we would file from whatever state | | 17 | taxes with whatever his individual income | 17 | that that income came. So I don't know | | 18 | that doesn't come into the Estate. In a | 18 | what it's going to be but it's at least | | 19 | Chapter 11 case, virtually all of the | 19 | going to be Connecticut and the IRS. | | 20 | debtor's income is supposed to come into | 20 | Q.<br>I think we covered before, it's | | 21<br>22 | the Estate. So there really shouldn't be a<br>separate one but technically, there could | 21<br>22 | your understanding that the debtor has no<br>income in this case? | | 23 | be. The Estate is -- the Estate return is | 23 | A.<br>Correct. | | 24 | generally assigned to be December 31, | 24 | Q.<br>What work do you anticipate | | 25 | unless you elect otherwise.

So | 6 | going to take place between February 15 and | | 7 | I recommend, even when there's no tax due, | 7 | December 31. I don't know whether there | | 8 | that the return gets filed in order to | 8 | will be any income or not. There's | | 9 | protect all -- everybody in the case to | 9 | litigation going on. There might be | | 10 | make sure that there is not an issue that | 10 | settlements. I don't know whether there'll | | 11 | gives the various taxing authorities 60 | 11 | be income or not but if there is, there'll | | 12 | days from the date of filing with the | 12 | be income. From what source, I don't know | | 13 | 505(b) letter to elect to audit it. It's | 13 | and from where, I don't know but at a | | 14 | the way that the case can move forward to | 14 | minimum, there will be disbursements and in | | 15 | closure and not have the seven year | 15 | a bankruptcy, there's two types of expenses | | 16 | statute, three year statutes and the like. | 16 | from a tax perspective.

I don't know if it's | 12 | there's usually a claims objection | | 13 | the whole thing. I don't know if I saw the | 13 | deadline. If, however, a creditor has been | | 14 | entire federal and the entire state but I | 14 | scheduled on Schedule D, E or F and that | | 15 | -- I at least saw the New York return and | 15 | number happens to be right, then the | | 16 | the federal version attached to the New | 16 | creditor does not have to file a claim as I | | 17 | York return which may or may not be the | 17 | understand it.

HARBACH: | | 4 | Q.<br>Without walking through each of | 4 | Q.<br>For the record, this is David | | 5 | these, did you perform -- did Verdolino and | 5 | Harbach at O'Melveny, also representing | | 6 | Lowey perform any work in connection with | 6 | Pax. I just have a few questions. Sir, I | | 7 | Items 6 through 14? | 7 | believe you mentioned earlier that you or | | 8 | A.<br>Nothing -- not with the | 8 | Verdolino and Lowey were involved in | | 9 | attorneys. | 9 | helping to prepare the notes for the | | 10 | Q.<br>Just to be clear about your | 10 | schedules that were filed? Have I got that | | 11 | role, were you provided information from | 11 | right? | | 12 | counsel and you were responsible for | 12 | A.<br>The specific part of the | | 13 | drafting this form or did you rely on | 13 | notes -- | | 14 | counsel to draft this form? | 14 | Q.<br>Yes, sir. The specific notes. | | 15 | MR. AULET: Objection to form. | 15 | A.<br>Not the general -- | | 16 | A.<br>We keypunched into the forms | 16 | Q.<br>Understood. | | 17 | after consultation obviously. | 17 | A.<br>Yes, I worked with counsel on | | 18 | Q.<br>Did you do anything besides | 18 | that. | | 19 | keypunch into the form? | 19 | Q.<br>The specific notes are -- | | 20 | A.<br>We discussed matters with the | 20 | appear at Document Number 77 on the docket | | 21 | attorneys. | 21 | and I don't have an extra copy for you but | | 22 | Q.<br>I'm asking in connection with | 22 | I hope you'll agree that it won't be | | 23 | filing the schedule and the SOFA, when you | 23 | necessary. When it comes to questions | | 24 | say you communicated with the attorneys, | 24 | about things like electronics and household | | 25 | you're talking about Brown Rudnick? | 25 | goods and furnishings, which my colleague | | | Page 98 | | Page 100 | | | | | | | | | | | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | | 2 | A.<br>And Melissa Francis and Aaron | 2 | was just asking you about, the specific | | 3 | Mitchell. | 3 | notes state, for example, "numerous items | | 4 | Q.<br>Did you communicate or did | 4 | fitting the personal and household | | 5 | Verdolino and Lowey communicate with anyone | 5 | definition are located at the residence and | | 6 | else besides the attorneys at Brown | 6 | the apartment" and then it goes onto say, | | 7 | Rudnick, Melissa Francis and Aaron | 7 | "except as otherwise set forth herein, the | | 8 | Mitchell? | 8 | debtor has no legal title to the contents | | 9 | A.<br>No. | 9 | of either the residence or the apartment | | 10 | Q.<br>Were you provided any facts or | 10 | and no court has made any determination | | 11 | information from any party when punching in | 11 | that the debtor has any other interests in | | 12 | these line items? | 12 | any such items". My question for you is | | 13 | A.<br>We were informed by facts, lots | 13 | was Verdolino and Lowey at all involved in | | 14 | of them from the attorneys and lots of | 14 | making the assessment of whether any of | | 15 | discussion. | 15 | these household items belonged to the | | 16 | Q.<br>Was it -- scratch that. The | 16 | debtor? | | 17 | information you received, was it oral? | 17 | MR. AULET: I just lodge an | | 18 | A.<br>Some was oral and some was in | 18 | objection to asking him about a | | 19 | e-mails, I believe, from counsel. | 19 | document that you're not showing him. | | 20 | MR. HARBACH: Do you mind if I | 20 | You can answer if you can. | | 21 | ask a couple questions? | 21 | A.<br>To be clear, are you asking me | | 22 | MS. ARONSSON: Sure. | 22 | if I investigated whether the spatulas and | | 23 | MR. AULET: I don't have any | 23 | the pots and pans existed and who bought | | 24<br>25 | objection.<br>MR. HARBACH: Thank you. | 24<br>25 | them and how much they were and are they at<br>the house? |

26 (Pages 98 - 101)

Page 102 1 C. JALBERT 2 Q. All I'm asking is whether Verdolino and Lowey had any role in making the judgment call over whether the household items at the residence or the apartment belonged to Mr. Kwok or was that something that was left to the lawyers? 8 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 9 A. We did no investigation. I had no personal knowledge not told to me by Aaron Mitchell, Melissa Francis and Brown Rudnick about the ownership of those. So it wasn't my decision and I didn't investigate but I certainly was party to the conversations regarding that. 16 Q. During those conversations, if one of those people, a lawyer at Brown Rudnick or Melissa -- whose last name I forget -- 20 A. Francis. 21 Q. Francis, thank you. Represented to you that those items do not belong to Mr. Kwok, you just accepted that at face value? 25 A. Correct. Page 103 1 C. JALBERT 2 MR. HARBACH: Okay, thank you. 3 Thank you, Laura. CONTINUED EXAMINATION BY MS. ARONSSON: 6 Q. This is Laura Aronsson from O'Melveny. Just turning back to what we were talking about in connection with the schedule. I think David covered this. So when drafting this, how did you decide whether an item like the iPhone referenced in Line Item 7 or the clothes referenced in Line Item 11 or the family dog referenced Item 13 belonged to Kwok as opposed to another person or entity? 16 A. I was informed by either Melissa Francis or Aaron Mitchell or they informed Brown Rudnick and Brown Rudnick informed us. 20 Q. Is it fair to say that that chain of events that you just described applies to all of the items identified in this schedule? 24 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 25 A. I don't know -- we better go Page 104 1 C. JALBERT item by item if that's what you want to do. I don't know what you're referring to. You know, you got specific lines you're talking about? 6 Q. Sure, that's fair. So in connection with any of the assets identified in the schedule as belonging to Mr. Kwok, you solely relied on the chain of events you previously described, Brown Rudnick received information from Melissa Francis and Aaron Mitchell? 13 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 14 A. No, that's not what I said. I said we heard directly from Melissa Francis or Aaron Mitchell or they informed Brown Rudnick and Brown Rudnick told me that they -- what the answer was from them. There was no one way of communicating. It was fluid situation. We had a very short time to do them but it was not one way or the other. It was, as I said, either and many times the e-mails were with all the attorneys on the e-mail or it was a phone call with a lot of parties and I don't Page 105 1 C. JALBERT remember all of the parties but the source of the information was for us, first, Aaron Mitchell and Melissa Francis in no particular order. Now I don't remember who knew more about what than the other or if they passed information onto Brown Rudnick, who then passed it onto us. Obviously, after they did whatever legal analysis they wanted to do. 11 Q. In preparing these documents, did you ask for any information from Brown Rudnick or Aaron Mitchell or Melissa Francis that you were not given? 15 A. I don't remember asking a question they didn't answer but I didn't investigate anything. 18 Q. I want to turn to Page 16 of this document. So at the bottom of the page, to direct your attention there, Part 2 reads, "estimate your ongoing monthly expenses". Were you involved in drafting this section? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. What was your role -- or

| | 85 | | | |----------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | | 2 | scratch that. What was Verdolino and | 2 | operating report is a different report and | | 3 | Lowey's role in connection with this | 3 | that's a completely different question than | | 4 | section? | 4 | what's on here. | | 5 | A.<br>We had discussions with the | 5 | Q.<br>Can you explain to me the | | 6 | legal team, which is Brown Rudnick team | 6 | difference? | | 7 | plus Aaron Mitchell, plus Melissa Francis, | 7 | A.<br>And I don't remember what | | 8 | probably more than one time, probably | 8 | question it is, is it like 4 or 5 or 6E or | | 9 | orally, probably in e-mail and it was a | 9 | whatever it is, the request is to report | | 10 | discussion. | 10 | the expenses paid by others on the debtor's | | 11 | Q.<br>Turning to the next page, the | 11 | behalf. That's not what this asks. So in | | 12 | estimated monthly operating expenses reads | 12 | the schedule, we listed some funds and we | | 13 | zero. Is that fair? | 13 | will, going forward, be listing and | | 14 | A.<br>Yes. | 14 | reporting, as required by the MOR, the | | 15 | Q.<br>Did you anticipate the debtor's | 15 | expenses paid by others on behalf of the | | 16 | monthly operating expenses to remain zero | 16 | debtor which is again different from what | | 17 | after this point? | 17 | this asks. | | 18 | MR. AULET: Objection to form. | 18 | Q.<br>Focusing on what this asks, | | 19 | A.<br>It certainly was discussed with | 19 | it's your understanding that the debtor's | | 20 | the attorneys. I don't think it's a | 20 | ongoing monthly expenses is zero? | | 21 | secret. There was lots of discussion | 21 | MR. AULET: Objection to form. | | 22 | yesterday. So my expectation is yes, as to | 22 | A.<br>The debtor's payment of the | | 23 | his expenses, his payment of his expenses | 23 | ongoing expenses is zero. | | 24 | is going to remain I think zero. | 24 | Q.<br>You did no investigation into | | 25 | Q.<br>I think you said his -- his | 25 | whether that is correct? | | | | | | | | Page 106 | | Page 108 | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | | 2 | expenses. In your view, what does his | 2 | A.<br>Correct. | | 3 | expenses cover? | 3 | Q.<br>Turning just to the Excel | | 4 | A.<br>There's a whole list of them | 4 | sheets at the end of this document, | | 5 | here. You want to go down them? It looks | 5 | starting just broadly, was Verdolino and | | 6 | like about 30 of them. Real estate taxes, | 6 | Lowey involved in preparing these | | 7 | property and homeowners and renters' | 7 | documents? | | 8 | insurance, home maintenance repair and | 8 | A.<br>Well, we were certainly | | 9 | upkeep expenses, home ownership association | 9 | involved with others, yes. | | 10 | and condo dues. Don't even know if those | 10 | Q.<br>What -- generally, what work | | 11 | are applicable. Electricity, heat and | 11 | did Verdolino and Lowey do in connection | | 12 | natural gas. Want me to keep going? | 12 | with these documents? | | 13 | Q.<br>So we can just agree that Items | 13 | A.<br>Reviewed them for | | 14 | 4 through 21 would include monthly | 14 | reasonableness, assisted in putting them in | | 15 | expenses? | 15 | a form that would normally be seen in a | | 16 | A.<br>Again, as it relates to him | 16 | SOFA and schedule. I think some of this | | 17 | paying them, I would agree. My | 17 | was uploaded into the actual Schedule F | | 18 | understanding is they're going to remain | 18 | because I think Schedule F -- well, maybe | | 19 | zero. | 19 | it doesn't. I don't know. I don't | | 20<br>21 | Q.<br>So this -- the analysis<br>contained in this document is separate from | 20<br>21 | remember whether this was uploaded or not<br>but it could be. So that -- so it starts | | 22 | the monthly operating report, the reports | 22 | with D. So all of these, we worked with | | 23 | that you, Verdolino, draft in connection | 23 | the attorneys and that's again, all three, | | 24 | with this case? | 24 | the Brown Rudnick team, Aaron Mitchell and | | 25 | A.<br>Correct, because the monthly | 25 | Melissa Francis. |

Page 110 1 C. JALBERT 2 Q. I think you said the phrase reviewed for reasonableness. What do you mean by that? 5 A. Well, if we had anything to compare information to, we compared it or -- or if we had a question, we asked a question of the lawyers. I don't remember off hand what those were. 10 Q. Can you think generally of any issues that you investigated in connection with preparing these? 13 A. I'm sure on a couple of them, we wanted the make sure that -- that there wasn't a missing digit or an extra digit so I'm sure someone from my team walked through with someone, probably either Melissa or Aaron, just as a double check that it's what -- what the number on the form was the number that they intended. There wasn't, in there someplace, a human error. 23 Q. Can you think of anything else specific that you investigated? 25 A. We did not investigate. Page 111 1 C. JALBERT 2 MS. ARONSSON: The Court 3 Reporter is going to hand you what's 4 being marked as Jalbert Exhibit 6. 5 This is a document filed in this case 6 as Docket 77. 7 (Whereupon, Global Notes was 8 marked as Jalbert Exhibit 6 for 9 identification as of this date by the 10 Reporter.) 11 Q. Do you recognize this document? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. What is it? 14 A. The Global Notes and Statements of Limitations Methodology and Disclaimers Regarding the Debtor's Schedules of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Financial Affairs and the debtor is Ho Wan Kwok. 19 Q. And this is a specific line item that Verdolino and Lowey's proposed retention relates to? 22 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 23 A. Can I go back and take a look? I don't know what the global notes are listed or not but these are part and parcel Page 112 1 C. JALBERT to the SOFA's and schedules. So it would be part of the first bullet, "assistance with preparation of the statement of financial affairs and schedules and all support thereto and any amendments, if necessary". 8 Q. What was Verdolino and Lowey's role in preparing this document? 10 A. Well, we certainly assisted in drafting. We assisted in reviewing, particularly the specific notes but there was -- there was a lot of back and forth and a lot of work between the Brown Rudnick law firm, Aaron Mitchell, Melissa Francis and Verdolino and Lowey, both -- all three at Verdolino and Lowey, Matt Flynn, Mary Jo Schindler and myself. 19 Q. Just to understand, what specific work did Verdolino and Lowey do in connection with preparing this document? 22 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 23 A. Well, like I said, we had numerous e-mails, we reviewed everything, we made comments. We might have drafted a Page 113 1 C. JALBERT paragraph here or a paragraph there. I think we assisted the group in making sure the references, amongst the notes and amongst the questions and the SOFA's and amongst the schedules to the extent they were interrelated, that the references were appropriate. We made sure that the writings were the facts as we knew them. Didn't investigate but we had lots of discussions and we made sure that what was represented here was our memories. 13 Q. Thank you. Turning to Page 4, Question 1 in the middle of the page, asks "do you own or have any legal or equitable interest in any residence, building, land or similar property". The answer in Item 1, below it, reads, "the debtor has use and occupancy of real estate located at 373 Taconic Road, Greenwich, Connecticut". Do you have any understanding as to why the use and occupancy of certain real estate is relevant to this filing? 24 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 25 A. Well, I'm not a lawyer but

Exactly what's in Chapter 11 | 4 | remember exactly what the question is, 4, 5 | | 5 | and who owns what, I have not confirmed or | 5 | or 6, like E, where the rules say to report | | 6 | made an investigation but generally | 6 | expenses made by third-parties on behalf of | | 7 | speaking, I understand that that apartment | 7 | the debtor. Well, I'm thinking the use of | | 8 | is somehow in Chapter 11 in New York. | 8 | the vehicles -- you know, I don't know if | | 9 | Q.<br>Any involvement in those | 9 | there's a car payment on it, gasoline, | | 10 | proceedings in New York? | 10 | insurance, I don't know but something might | | 11 | A.<br>No. | 11 | be in there. | | 12 | Q.<br>Turning to the next page, | 12 | Q.<br>What about the purchase of the | | 13 | Question 3 asks for interests, broadly | 13 | vehicle itself whenever it was purchased, | | 14 | speaking, in any vehicles. The response | 14 | is that relevant to the monthly operating | | 15 | reads that "the debtor has use of | 15 | report? | | 16 | automobiles including luxury automobiles | 16 | A.<br>Well, monthly operating reports | | 17 | and motorcycles". Did you do any | 17 | are usually a disbursement in a particular | | 18 | investigation into this analysis? | 18 | time period. I imagine if they've bought | | 19 | A.<br>No. | 19 | one of those cars during the pendency, | | 20<br>21 | Q.<br>Do you have any understanding<br>of what vehicles the debtor uses? | 20<br>21 | maybe it shows up. I don't know. On the<br>other hand, you could make an argument that | | 22 | A.<br>Only from my memory, the -- he | 22 | the use of the vehicle is not the same | | 23 | has access to a luxury vehicle and I think | 23 | thing as buying the vehicle because maybe | | 24 | there's a vehicle that his security travels | 24 | other people use it too. So you would have | | 25 | in. As a matter of fact, they were in New<br>Page 115 | 25 | to find a way of allocating the cost.<br>Page 117 |

Turning to Page 13, Question 16 6 refers to a retainer of 500 thousand for 7 Brown Rudnick and then refers to one 8 million dollars from Lamp Capital. Do you 9 have any knowledge of that transaction 10 outside of what's written on the page? 11 A. I think there was discussion of 12 it yesterday -- excuse me, on Wednesday at 13 the 341 meeting and I think I saw a draft 14 of Brown Rudnick's retention papers -- I 15 think I did where I thought something was 16 mentioned in there. 17 Q. Do you recall what that was? 18 A. No. Something along the lines 19 of what's right here. 20 Q. Do you know what Lamp Capital 21 LLC is? 22 A. An entity owned by someone that 23 is not the debtor. 24 Q. Do you have any idea who it is 25 owned by? Page 127 1 C. JALBERT 2 A. Only a guess. 3 Q. Can you tell me -- I guess you 4 don't need to speculate. Do you have any 5 information that -- about what informs your 6 guess? 7 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 8 A. My memory was there was a lot 9 being talked about but my memory was 10 something was said during the 341 meeting 11 but it is very -- I was very back of the 12 room, as you know, and it was very hard for 13 me to hear the English version from the 14 interpreter. So I can't be sure but I 15 thought I heard something that discussed 16 who owned Lamp. 17 Q. Outside of what you heard at 18 the 341 hearing and this other document 19 that you remember seeing, do you have any 20 knowledge about Lamp or its operations? 21 A. No. 22 Q. The next item, Question 18 23 refers to a litigation funding agreement 24 dated November 8th, 2021. Have you seen 25 that agreement? Page 128 1 C. JALBERT 2 A. There are actually five of them 3 I think. They're listed in Schedule D. I 4 don't recall whether I actually saw them or 5 not. I think they were briefly described 6 to me at a minimum by lawyers. 7 Q. Any independent knowledge of 8 those agreements besides -- 9 A. No. 10 Q. Did Verdolino and Lowey do any 11 other investigation in connection with the 12 assets we've talked about that we didn't 13 cover? 14 A. No. 15 Q. Those five litigation 16 agreements we talked about -- 17 A. The litigation funding 18 agreements? 19 Q. Yes. Thank you. Have you seen 20 them before? 21 A. Not to my knowledge. 22 MS. ARONSSON: The Court 23 Reporter is going to hand you what's 24 being marked as Jalbert Exhibit 7. 25 This is a document produced in this Page 129 1 C.

Mr. Jalbert, I understand 15 you're not on this e-mail. I'm just going 16 to ask you some basic questions about it. 17 This is an e-mail between a redacted 18 person, Aaron Mitchell, Matt Flynn and 19 Melissa Francis. Matt Flynn is your 20 colleague. We've talked about the other 21 folks. The attachment is a summary of 22 living expenses from the period February 23 15th to 28th. First, I'm going to ask who 24 is this e-mail from? 25 MR.

JALBERT | | 2 | of when the information became available | 2 | A.<br>We did the best we could, yes. | | 3 | and when the form had to be filed, there | 3 | Q.<br>What more information would | | 4 | was a miscommunication with the preparer of | 4 | have been helpful to help you get to that | | 5 | the schedule that will be rectified. | 5 | determination? | | 6 | Q.<br>Who's the preparer of the | 6 | A.<br>If we could have seen what | | 7 | schedule? | 7 | the -- what the actual payees and | | 8 | A.<br>I can't tell you. | 8 | disbursements were, it probably would have | | 9 | Q.<br>What schedule are you referring | 9 | helped us with the categorization. | | 10 | to, this document here, the monthly | 10 | Q.<br>But you didn't receive that? | | 11 | operating report, Exhibit 8? | 11 | A.<br>Not -- not at that time, no. | | 12 | A.<br>This thing (indicating). | 12 | Q.<br>Is the extent of information | | 13 | Q.<br>So the number 161 here refers | 13 | you received regarding these line items | | 14 | to this spreadsheet in Exhibit 7 as | 14 | included in this chart here? | | 15 | reflected with your edits, with Verdolino | 15 | A.<br>As of the date that we made | | 16 | and Lowey's edits? | 16 | available all the -- I'm sure there's an | | 17 | A.<br>The 161 is the sum of the final | 17 | updated version because this doesn't tie to | | 18 | number from Exhibit 8 plus the 109. | 18 | here (indicating) and then we -- long after | | 19 | Q.<br>What work did Verdolino and | 19 | we produced the information for -- for this | | 20 | Lowey do in connection with getting to the | 20 | deposition, there's been continuing ongoing | | 21 | final numbers? | 21 | discussions because we're getting ready to | | 22 | A.<br>We worked with counsel and | 22 | file -- excuse me, the March MOR in April. | | 23 | Aaron Mitchell and Melissa Francis trying | 23 | Q.<br>We'll turn to the -- what I | | 24<br>25 | to review -- we didn't have details but we<br>were trying to ask questions and make sure | 24<br>25 | think is the final version but we talked<br>about the categories, the amount you said |

35 (Pages 134 - 137)

Page 138 1 C. JALBERT 2 that, at the time of this filing, you did 3 not have information to be able to verify 4 the amounts attributed to each category. 5 Is that right? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. What information would have 8 been helpful for you to cross check those 9 amounts? 10 A. Like I said, the name of the 11 payee, a description of what the service 12 was and the amount of the funds. 13 Q. The percentage distribution, 14 what does that mean? 15 A. The -- so for instance, 16 security was, in this sheet, \$43,655.44. 17 The drafter of this and anyone that he 18 consulted with or she consulted with was 40 19 percent. Amongst talking with our team and 20 with the lawyer team, we thought that that 21 probably should be one hundred percent 22 because the only reason -- the security is 23 entirely related to Mr. Kwok and his 24 safety. There wouldn't be security if the 25 wife and the kids or others at the Page 139 1 C. JALBERT 2 compound, if it weren't for Mr. Kwok. So 3 we proposed changing and I think that did 4 get changed to a hundred percent. 5 Q. In revising these percentage 6 distributions, did you rely entirely on 7 information received from Brown Rudnick and 8 Aaron Mitchell and Melissa Francis and this 9 undisclosed person? 10 A. The first pass was the 11 undisclosed person. After we got this 12 information from the undisclosed person, 13 most of the discussion was between our 14 firm, my firm and the lawyer -- lawyers. 15 How long is this is going to go? Because 16 if it's going to go a bit, now I would like 17 to use the restroom. I'll be fast. 18 MS. ARONSSON: We can take a 19 break. We'll go off the record. 20 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: The time is 21 1:22 p.m. We're off the record. 22 (Whereupon, a short recess was 23 taken and upon resuming, E-mail Chain 24 was marked as Jalbert Exhibit 9 for 25 identification as of this date by the Page 140 1 C. JALBERT 2 Reporter.) 3 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: The time is 4 1:28 p.m. We're back on the record. 5 You may proceed. 6 Q. I think you have received 7 what's been marked as Jalbert Exhibit 9. 8 This bears the Bates Kwok 00001684. Do you 9 recognize this document? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. Turning to the attachment, to 12 your knowledge, is this the final version 13 of the living expenses for the period 14 February 15th to February 28th? 15 A. I think it is. 16 Q. I'll represent, if you add 17 \$51,495.67 plus the 109 thousand -- 18 A. 161. 19 Q. So we're on the same page, this 20 is the final version? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. Does this final version reflect 23 Verdolino and Lowey's edits on the initial 24 draft provided by an unknown person? 25 A. Well, it's certainly -- as you Page 141 1 C. JALBERT 2 can see from the e-mail, we made 3 suggestions but counsel clearly reviewed 4 and assisted with the final decision and 5 I'm sure they also checked with the debtor. 6 I did not. 7 Q. So just walking through these 8 five suggestions, why did you increase the 9 meals to 50 percent or why did you 10 recommend increasing the meals to 50 11 percent? 12 A. Because there's a husband and a 13 wife and one hundred percent divided by two 14 is by 50 percent. 15 Q. Do you have any understanding 16 as to why the draft had allocated the 17 numbers in the way it had in Exhibit 7? 18 MR. AULET: Objection to form. 19 A. So I think what the creator of 20 the initial -- my memory is the creator of 21 the initial document took into 22 consideration that occasionally, the 23 debtor's daughter and maybe one or two 24 other people occasionally showed up and so 25 I think they ascribed some of the cost to 85

36 (Pages 138 - 141)

| 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | |----|-------------------------------------------------|----|---------------------------------------------| | 2 | those people but our feeling in | 2 | to ascribe the one hundred percent of the | | 3 | consultation with the attorneys was that | 3 | cost to the debtor is -- means that all | | 4 | the only reason those people are there is | 4 | that costs -- we could have left it at 30 | | 5 | they're coming to visit the debtor and | 5 | percent and probably made it a callable | | 6 | that's why they incurred the cost. So I | 6 | argument of why it could be 30 percent. We | | 7 | thought they should put 50 percent to the | 7 | wanted to go with -- I think part of the | | 8 | husband and 50 percent to the wife and | 8 | final reasoning amongst the group was that | | 9 | that's how we got the 50 percent. | 9 | it's conservative to report all of it on | | 10 | Q.<br>Besides what you just described | 10 | the debtor's behalf because of his safety | | 11 | to me, do you have anymore reasons for | 11 | concerns is -- that was the reasoning. | | 12 | suggesting the increase of 50 percent? | 12 | Q.<br>Thank you. Item 3 is utilities | | 13 | A.<br>Not that I can remember. | 13 | increased to 50 percent and I'll represent | | 14 | Q.<br>Item 2 is security is increased | 14 | Exhibit 7 has it at 30 percent and you | | 15 | to 100 and looking at the draft in Exhibit | 15 | ascribe the same explanation as the meals. | | 16 | 7, it was 40 percent. What was your | 16 | Is there any other -- | | 17 | reasoning for suggesting to increase the | 17 | A.<br>No, it's the same -- it's the | | 18 | security to 100? | 18 | same -- it's the same theme at different | | 19 | A.<br>Again, the only reason there's | 19 | percentages for most of these. | | 20 | any security at all is all about the | 20 | Q.<br>Item 4 refers to housekeeping. | | 21 | debtor. So in an abundance of caution, | 21 | I believe Verdolino and Lowey recommended | | 22 | we're ascribing that cost, one hundred | 22 | changing repair and maintenance to | | 23 | percent of that cost to the debtor. The | 23 | housekeeping? | | 24 | wife likely would not have security | 24 | A.<br>Well, as it turns out, once we | | 25 | concerns if she were not married to | 25 | were able to speak with someone and get | | | Page 142 | | Page 144 | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | | 2 | Mr. Kwok and when the daughter or others | 2 | some information that's behind the numbers, | | 3 | sometimes travel, they need security as | 3 | we found out that that's the cost of the | | 4 | well. So for whatever reason, their | 4 | maid for those 15 days or maids or maid | | 5 | security is all related to the debtor. We | 5 | service or cleaning service and not | | 6 | suggested going to a hundred percent. It | 6 | maintenance. So it's just a matter of | | 7 | was discussed among the group and everyone | 7 | calling it what it was.

Do you see that? | 16 | Greenwich property because that's where he | | 17 | A.<br>Yes. | 17 | was living. I got that right? | | 18 | Q.<br>Do you know the answer to that | 18 | A.<br>Yes, sir. | | 19<br>20 | question?<br>A.<br>I have no idea. Also, I don't | 19<br>20 | Q.<br>Then you were told that the<br>13,611 was actually for the Sherry, right? | | 21 | know why he asked it. | 21 | A.<br>Correct. | | 22 | Q.<br>That was going to be my | 22 | Q.<br>And at that point, you did not | | 23 | question. Why would it matter whether -- | 23 | inquire about was there actually any | | 24 | how much it was as to whether it should be | 24 | insurance money paid for the Greenwich | | 25 | included in the monthly operating report?<br>Page 151 | 25 | property during this period, you didn't ask<br>Page 153 |

| 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | |----------|-------------------------------------------------------|----|-------------------------------------------------------| | 2 | that question? | 2 | with the Brown Rudnick firm and Melissa | | 3 | A.<br>No, we assumed -- actually, | 3 | Francis and Aaron Mitchell to determine | | 4 | Matt had confirmed this is a list of all | 4 | what the accrual of professional fees. All | | 5 | the payments made during this time frame. | 5 | professionals, state professionals, | | 6 | So we had the universe that wasn't another | 6 | committee professionals, debtor | | 7 | insurance payment and you know, most -- | 7 | professionals, ordinary course -- alleged | | 8 | many of us have owned homes. My own | 8 | ordinary course professionals, everybody | | 9 | empirical knowledge is you typically pay | 9 | because we need to record the accrual. So | | | | | | | 10 | your homeowner's insurance once a year. | 10 | it's not just -- the operating report is | | 11 | It's usually -- in the Sherry, this 13 | 11 | not just asking for what was paid during | | 12 | thousand dollars might have been just a | 12 | that period. It's asking for what's the -- | | 13 | payment for the year on a 2.5 million | 13 | the new form is asking what are the unpaid | | 14 | dollar entity. They didn't tell us it was | 14 | amounts and we couldn't get it in time to | | 15 | a payment so I didn't ask. | 15 | get the February one. So we're going to | | 16 | CONTINUED EXAMINATION | 16 | catch up in this March one, we're going to | | 17 | BY MS. ARONSSON: | 17 | establish what the February accrual was and | | 18 | Q.<br>So I think we've covered the | 18 | we're going to find out what the March | | 19 | work that you have done in connection with | 19 | accrual was and then we'll have the correct | | 20 | the monthly operating report for the period | 20 | information and it will have to be | | 21 | February 15th to February 28th. We've been | 21 | maintained as we go along and obviously, as | | 22 | looking at that document. Is that right? | 22 | time goes on, if things go according to the | | 23 | A.<br>Yes. | 23 | way the debtor would like, there will be | | 24 | Q.<br>Can you think of anything else | 24 | payment on those fees. So there'll be more | | 25 | that we haven't talked about with the work | 25 | accruals and then payments and the same | | | Page 154 | | Page 156 | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C.

So | 8 | monthly operating report. | | 9 | no investigation of that, just a sanity | 9 | Q.<br>So is it fair to say you later | | 10 | check or a reasonableness check and confer | 10 | received a more detailed breakdown of these | | 11 | with counsel to be sure that we understand | 11 | items that was included in this -- | | 12 | what's on that sheet and what we're going | 12 | A.<br>I believe we got a more | | 13 | to report. | 13 | detailed -- but it was -- it was | | 14 | Q.<br>So essentially, you'll rely on | 14 | significantly past that time. Everything | | 15 | the rolled up numbers that are provided to | 15 | at that time was done by reviewing, | | 16 | you from the individuals we've talked | 16 | talking, Melissa and Aaron talking with | | 17 | about? | 17 | whoever and Matt talking to whoever. It | | 18 | A.<br>Again, except for some queries | 18 | was all done by e-mail and orally. We | | 19 | that we'll make depending on what the | 19 | didn't get a spreadsheet of the detail | | 20 | information we get. If we get -- if | 20 | until sometime later, long after it was | | 21 | insurance shows up again, we're going to | 21 | filed and actually, after the time that we | | 22 | ask insurance on what. If repairs and | 22 | made available our records that we got -- | | 23 | maintenance shows up again, we're going to | 23 | the detail listing which is when we figured | | 24 | confirm it's not the maid. So we'll use | 24 | out oh we got a problem with the monthly | | 25 | some common sense and we'll confer with the | 25 | operating report. It's just a matter of, | | | | | | | | Page 158 | | Page 160 | | 1 | C. JALBERT | 1 | C. JALBERT | | 2 | lawyers based on what we see but I won't | 2 | you know, whoever is preparing these things | | 3 | know what we're going to do until we see | 3 | isn't used to the rules, isn't used to | | 4 | what -- and I hope it's soon. What's | 4 | what's got to be displayed -- disclosed and | | 5 | today, April 8th? | 5 | what's not going to be disclosed. We try | | 6 | Q.<br>Thank you. Okay, just quickly | 6 | and give them guidance and they just made a | | 7 | turning back to Exhibit 8 which is I think | 7 | minor error. We'll fix it next month. | | 8 | the final living expense report for the | 8 | Q.<br>Thank you. You can set that | | 9 | period February 15th, 2022 to February | 9 | aside. Do you recall receiving an inquiry | | | 28th, 2022. I think you had referenced an | 10 | from someone at U.S. DOJ regarding the | | 10<br>11 | erroneous amount included in here. Can you | 11 | monthly operating report? | | | just explain again what you meant by that? | 12 | A.<br>I think I actually reached out | | | A.<br>I don't remember exactly what | 13 | to them first and my reaching out to them | | | the number is but on the security line, | 14 | first was -- and that's how -- was -- I | | | Line Number 9, the amount referenced her 43 | 15 | don't know if anyone's ever prepared a | | | thousand dollars. That 43 thousand dollars | 16 | monthly operating report, is there one | | 12<br>13<br>14<br>15<br>16<br>17 | included a payment of -- my memory is | 17 | here? So the monthly operating report, up | | | something like 12 or 14 thousand dollars | 18 | until December 31 or January 31 was one, | | | that was paid February 10 and so we got | 19 | two -- these two pages (indicating), Page 8 | | | this report, the original one, and didn't | 20 | which is now Page 8 and Page 9 and there | | | know the back -- the background and when | 21 | might have been one more -- I thought it | | 18<br>19<br>20<br>21<br>22 | they -- when they showed us the background | 22 | was five pages. It might have been four. | | 23 | and the list of -- we saw February 10. So | 23 | And I filed these monthly operating reports | | 24<br>25 | we realized we had the opposite mistake of<br>the time with the two professionals where | 24<br>25 | in several cases and it had been driving me<br>crazy for three months that I would -- I |

Most of | | 14 | understand your question. | 14 | these claims will be legally analyzed | | 15 | Q.<br>Well, you're a certified | 15 | but there might be a hundred reasons | | 16 | insolvency restructuring expert. You call | 16 | why someone that filed a claim -- | | 17 | upon that expertise in your engagements in | 17 | there might be an accounting | | 18 | Chapter 11 cases.

That's not one | | 8 | Q.<br>Why? | 8 | of the questions and no one has volunteered | | 9 | A.<br>Because you heard Golden | 9 | that information. It just says -- the | | 10 | Spring's attorney. They're worried about | 10 | question says is there a third-party making | | 11 | the safety of their employees given the | 11 | payments on behalf of the debtor | | 12 | issues surrounding this case. I don't know | 12 | post-petition. We answered that question | | | | | | | 13 | anything about that. I'm just doing what I | 13 | as best we could. We'll fix the one error | | 14 | told.

I don't know -- I don't | 20 | report so it's none of my business I think | | 21 | know who started it. I just -- in fact, I | 21 | is what I would have been told. | | 22 | don't think I knew it until the day before | 22 | MR.

That information | 19 | | | 20 | will be developed as we see the months go | 20 | | | 21 | by but I think the final -- the final | 21 | | | 22 | number for 15 days of the expenses for the | 22 | | | 23 | individual ended up being something like 28 | 23 | | | 24 | or 29 thousand dollars for 15 days.
