Rong Zhang, Xiadan Wang, and Chong Shen Raphanella, individually and as class representatives of a putative class in the action entitled Zhang, et al. v. Voice of Guo Media, Inc., et al., Case No. CV-21-01079-PHX-SMB, pending in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (the "Creditors"),hereby join in the motion of the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Committee")of Ho Wan Kwok (the "Debtor"), pursuant to Rule 9024 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the "Bankruptcy Rules"),to correct an order entered with respect to extending time to determine the dischargeability of a debt under 11 U.S.C.§523(c) (the "Motion"). In support of this joinder, the Creditors respectfully represent:

1. The Debtor is a defendant in the above-referenced litigation, and thus Creditors are unsecured creditors of the Debtor.

2. As set forth in the Motion, on June 17, 2022, the Committee filed a motion to extend the Dischargeability Deadline to July 20, 2022, on behalf of all creditors of the Debtor, including Creditors [ECF No. 470] (the "Extension Motion"). On June 21, 2022, the Court entered a docket order (the

^'The Debtor is known by the following names: Guo Wengui; Miles Guo; Miles Kwok; and Ho Wan Kwok.

"Extension Order") granting the Extension Motion; however, such order only references an extension for the Committee and not other creditors of the Debtor as requested by the Extension Motion.

3. Creditors relied on the relief sought by the Committee on their behalf. In this respect, the Committee had previously represented the interests of all creditors by entering into a stipulation extending the dischargeability deadline for all creditors [ECF No. 385]. Thus, for the reasons set forth herein and the reasons set forth in the Extension Motion, the Movants hereby join in the Motion.

WHEREFORE, the Movants respectfully request that the Court correct the Extension Order so as to provide an extension of time of 30 days, until July 20, 2022, for creditors, including Creditors, to file a dischargeability complaint in this case, and such other or further relief as the Court may deem just, equitable and proper.
