3. 
The Court has jurisdiction to consider this matter pursuant to 
28 U.S.C. §§ 157 and 1334, and the Amended Standing Order of Reference from the United 
States District Court for the District of Delaware, dated February 29, 2012.  This is a core

the Court voluntary cases under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).  
The Debtors are authorized to continue operating their business and managing their properties as 
debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.  No trustee, 
examiner, or statutory committee has been appointed in these Chapter 11 Cases. 
5.

jointly administered under the above-captioned case.

6. 
Additional information regarding the Debtors’ business, capital structure, 
and the circumstances leading to the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases is set forth in the 
Declaration of Deborah Rieger-Paganis in Support of Debtors’ Chapter 11 Petitions and First 
Day Relief [Docket No. 13] (the “First Day Declaration”) filed on the Petition Date. 
Scope of Services 
7. 
The Debtors require RL&F to render a variety of legal services during the 
pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases and to assist the Debtors in addressing the myriad issues that 
may arise.  Subject to further order of the Court, the Debtors request the employment and 
retention of RL&F to render professional services, including, but not limited to: 
a. 
Assisting in pre-bankruptcy preparation and planning; 
b. 
assisting in preparing necessary petitions, motions, applications, answers, 
orders, reports, and papers necessary to commence these Chapter 11 
Cases;  
c. 
advising the Debtors of their rights, powers, and duties as debtors and 
debtors in possession under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
d. 
taking all necessary actions to protect and preserve the Debtors’ estates, 
including the prosecution of actions on the Debtors’ behalf, the defense of 
any actions commenced against the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases, the 
negotiation of disputes in which the Debtors are involved, and the 
preparation of objections to claims filed against the Debtors’ estates; 
e. 
assisting with any sale or sales of assets, including preparing any 
necessary motions and papers related thereto; 
f. 
assisting in preparing the Debtors’ disclosure statement and any related 
motions, pleadings, or others documents necessary to solicit votes on any 
plan of reorganization; 
g. 
assisting in preparing the Debtors’ chapter 11 plan; 
h. 
prosecuting on behalf of the Debtors any proposed plan and seeking 
approval of all transactions contemplated therein and in any amendments 
thereto; and 
i. 
performing all other necessary legal services in connection with the 
prosecution of these Chapter 11 Cases.

RLF1 27977256v.2 
8. 
In addition to the services set forth in paragraphs 7(a) through 7(i) above, 
RL&F may perform all other services assigned to it by the Debtors, in consultation with Weil, 
Gotshal & Manges LLP (“Weil”), the Debtors’ restructuring co-counsel.  To the extent RL&F 
determines that such services fall outside of the scope of services historically or generally 
performed by RL&F as co-counsel in a bankruptcy case, RL&F will file a supplemental 
declaration. 
Basis for Relief 
9. 
Under section 327(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor in possession 
“with the court’s approval, may employ one or more attorneys . . . that do not hold or represent 
an interest adverse to the estate, and that are disinterested persons, to represent or assist the 
[debtor in possession] in carrying out [its] duties under this title.”  11 U.S.C. § 327(a).  Such 
employment may be based “on any reasonable terms and conditions of employment, including 
on a retainer, on an hourly basis, on a fixed percentage fee basis, or on a contingent fee basis.”  
11 U.S.C § 328(a). 
10. 
The Debtors believe that RL&F is well qualified to represent them in their 
bankruptcy cases in an efficient and timely manner.  The Debtors have selected RL&F as their 
bankruptcy co-counsel because of, among other things, (i) the firm’s extensive experience and 
knowledge in the field of debtors’ and creditors’ rights, business reorganizations and liquidations 
under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) its expertise, experience, and knowledge in 
practicing before this Court, (iii) its proximity to the Court, and (iv) its ability to respond quickly 
to emergency hearings and other emergency matters.  RL&F’s services will enable the Debtors 
to execute faithfully their duties as debtors in possession. 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 5 of 50

 
 
5 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
11. 
To that end, RL&F has stated its desire and willingness to act in these 
Chapter 11 Cases and to render the necessary professional services as co-counsel to the Debtors.  
12. 
In addition to this Application, the Debtors have filed, or expect to file 
shortly, applications to employ (i) Weil, as general restructuring counsel; (ii) Omni Agent 
Solutions, Inc., as claims and notice agent and administrative agent; and (iii) AlixPartners, LLP, 
as financial advisor.  The Debtors may also file applications to employ additional professionals.  
The Debtors understand the division of responsibilities among these professionals and intend to 
monitor carefully these and any other retained professionals to ensure a clear delineation of their 
respective duties and roles to prevent duplication of effort.  The Debtors recognize that efficient 
coordination of efforts among the Debtors’ professionals will greatly add to the effective 
administration of these Chapter 11 Cases. 
Professional Compensation 
A. Professional Fees  
13. 
The Debtors understand that RL&F intends to apply to the Court for 
allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the applicable 
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and any applicable 
orders of this Court.   In that regard, the Debtors and RL&F are developing a prospective budget 
and staffing plan in a reasonable effort to comply with any requests for information and 
additional disclosures that may be made by the Office of the United States Trustee for the 
District of Delaware (the “U.S. Trustee”).  Subject to the foregoing, the Debtors propose to pay 
RL&F its customary hourly rates in effect from time to time as set forth in the DeFranceschi 
Declaration.  The Debtors submit that these rates are reasonable. 
14. 
RL&F’s current hourly rates for matters related to these Chapter 11 Cases 
are expected to be within the following ranges:  
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 6 of 50

RLF1 27977256v.2 
Position 
Range of Hourly Rates 
Directors 
$850 to $1,300 an hour 
Counsel 
$725 to $750 an hour 
Associates 
$425 to $700 an hour 
Paraprofessionals 
$315 an hour 
 
15. 
The principal professionals and paraprofessionals designated to represent 
the Debtors and their current standard hourly rates are as follows:  
a. 
Daniel J. DeFranceschi 
 
$1,100 per hour 
b. 
Amanda R. Steele 
 
 
$875 per hour 
c. 
Zachary I. Shapiro 
 
 
$850 per hour 
d. 
Matthew P. Milana 
 
 
$600 per hour 
e. 
Huiqi Liu 
 
 
 
$475 per hour 
f. 
M. Lynzy McGee 
 
 
$315 per hour 
16. 
The Debtors understand that RL&F’s hourly rates are set at a level 
designed to compensate RL&F fairly for the work of its attorneys and paralegals and to cover 
fixed and routine expenses.  Hourly rates vary with the experience and seniority of the 
individuals assigned.  These hourly rates are subject to periodic adjustments to reflect economic 
and other conditions (which adjustments will be reflected in the first RL&F fee application 
following such adjustments) and are consistent with the rates charged elsewhere.  
17. 
Other than the periodic adjustments described above, RL&F’s hourly rates 
of its attorneys and financial terms for the services performed prior to the Petition Date are 
identical to the hourly rates and financial terms of the postpetition engagement proposed herein.  
The Debtors understand that these hourly rates are consistent with the rates that RL&F charges 
other comparable chapter 11 clients, regardless of the location of the chapter 11 case, and are not 
significantly different from the rates that RL&F charges in non-bankruptcy representations.  
None of RL&F’s professionals included in this engagement have varied their rate based on the 
geographic location of these Chapter 11 Cases.  Notwithstanding the consistent hourly rates, 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 7 of 50

 
 
7 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
RL&F as a practice reviews all time charges and makes adjustments as necessary to correct any 
inefficiency that may appear before billing.  
18. 
Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors made total retainer payments to RL&F in 
the amount of $235,428 (the “Retainer”).  The Retainer was utilized as a retainer to cover fees 
and expenses actually incurred, as well as anticipated to be incurred, prior to, and in connection 
with, the Debtors’ restructuring and the commencement of these Chapter 11 Cases.  The Debtors 
propose that the remainder of the Retainer paid to RL&F and not expended for prepetition 
services and disbursements be treated as an evergreen retainer to be held by RL&F as security 
throughout these bankruptcy cases until RL&F’s fees and expenses are awarded by final order 
and payable to RL&F.  
19. 
Given the extensive nature of the services that RL&F will provide to the 
Debtors, the retention of RL&F under an evergreen retainer is appropriate and necessary to 
enable the Debtors to faithfully execute their duties as debtors and debtors in possession and to 
implement the reorganization of the Debtors. 
20. 
Other than as set forth in the DeFranceschi Declaration, no arrangement is 
proposed between the Debtors and RL&F for compensation to be paid in these Chapter 11 Cases.  
RL&F has informed the Debtors that it has no agreement with any other entity to share any 
compensation received, nor will any be made, except as permitted under section 504(b)(1) of the 
Bankruptcy Code. 
B.  Expenses  
21. 
The Debtors understand that it is RL&F’s policy to charge its clients in all 
areas of practice for all expenses incurred in connection with clients’ cases.  The expenses 
charged to clients include, among other things, long-distance telephone charges, regular mail, 
and express mail charges, special or hand delivery charges, document processing charges,

8 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
printing and photocopying charges, travel expenses, expenses for “working meals,” 
computerized research charges and transcription costs, as well as non-ordinary overhead 
expenses such as secretarial and certain other overtime.  RL&F will charge the Debtors for these 
expenses in a manner and at rates consistent with charges made generally to RL&F’s other 
clients or as previously fixed by the Local Rules.  The Debtors understand that it is RL&F’s 
belief that it is fair to charge these expenses to the client incurring them instead of increasing 
hourly rates and spreading these expenses among all clients. 
RL&F’s Disinterestedness 
22. 
To the best of the Debtors’ knowledge and except as is disclosed in the 
DeFranceschi Declaration: (a) RL&F is a “disinterested person” under section 101(14) of the 
Bankruptcy Code; (b) RL&F does not hold or represent an interest adverse to the Debtors’ 
estates; and (c) neither RL&F, nor any attorney (including any director, counsel or associate) of 
RL&F, currently represents, or has in the past represented, or has any connection with, the 
potential parties in interest set forth on Exhibit 3 to the DeFranceschi Declaration. 
23. 
RL&F will supplement its disclosure to the Court if any facts or 
circumstances are discovered that would require such additional disclosure.  
Bankruptcy Rule 5002 
24. 
As set forth in the DeFranceschi Declaration, and except as described 
therein, no director, counsel, or associate of RL&F is a relative of, or has been so connected 
with, any United States Bankruptcy Judge for the District of Delaware, any of the District Court 
Judges for the District of Delaware who handle bankruptcy cases, the United States Trustee for 
Region 3, the Assistant United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, the attorneys for the 
United States Trustee assigned to these Chapter 11 Cases or any other employee of the United

RLF1 27977256v.2 
States Trustee that would render RL&F’s retention in these Chapter 11 Cases improper under 
Bankruptcy Rule 5002.  Accordingly, the appointment of RL&F is not prohibited by Bankruptcy 
Rule 5002. 
Notice 
25. 
Notice of this Application has been or will be provided to: (a) the Office 
of the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware; (b) the holders of the 30 largest 
unsecured claims against the Debtors on a consolidated basis; (c)  the Federal Reserve; (d) 
Customers Bank; (e) Cross River Bank; (f) the United States Department of Justice; (g) the 
Federal Trade Commission; (h) the Small Business Administration; (i) the Internal Revenue 
Service; (j) the Securities and Exchange Commission; (k) the United States Attorney’s Office for 
the District of Delaware; and (l) any party that is entitled to notice pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 
2002.  The Debtors believe that no further notice is required. 
No Prior Request 
26. 
No previous request for the relief sought herein has been made by the 
Debtors to this or any other court.

IN SUPPORT OF APPLICATION  
OF DEBTORS TO RETAIN AND EMPLOY  
RICHARDS, LAYTON & FINGER, P.A. AS CO-COUNSEL TO  
THE DEBTORS EFFECTIVE AS OF PETITION DATE 
 
I, Daniel J. DeFranceschi, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, hereby declare that the 
following is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief: 
1. 
I am an attorney admitted to practice in the State of Delaware and before 
this Court, and a director of the firm of Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. (“RL&F”).  RL&F is a 
Delaware law firm with offices at One Rodney Square, 920 North King Street, Wilmington, 
Delaware 19801. 
2. 
I submit this declaration in support of the foregoing application 
(the “Application”)2 to provide certain disclosures in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, the 
Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules.  Unless otherwise stated in this declaration, I have 
personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein.  To the extent that any information disclosed 
herein requires amendment or modification upon RL&F’s completion of further analysis, or as

additional information becomes available to it, a supplemental affidavit or declaration will be 
submitted to the Court. 
3. 
RL&F has extensive experience in the field of debtors’ and creditors’ 
rights and business reorganizations and liquidations under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code 
and expertise, experience, and knowledge practicing before this Court.  RL&F’s proximity to the 
Court enables RL&F to respond quickly to emergency hearings and other emergency matters 
before this Court. 
4. 
RL&F has been actively involved in major chapter 11 cases and has 
represented debtors in many cases, including recently:  In re GenapSys, Inc., Case No. 22-10621 
(BLS) (Bankr. D. Del. Aug. 17, 2022); In re Enjoy Tech., Inc., Case No. 22-10580 (JKS) (Bankr.

5. 
On or about September 9, 2022, the Debtors formally engaged RL&F in 
connection with their restructuring efforts.  In providing prepetition professional services to the 
Debtors, RL&F has become familiar with the Debtors and their business, including the Debtors’ 
financial affairs, debt structure, operations, and related matters. Having provided such 
professional services to the Debtors, RL&F has gained familiarity with the Debtors and their 
business that will assist it in providing effective and efficient services in these Chapter 11 Cases.  
Accordingly, RL&F is both well qualified and uniquely able to represent the Debtors in these 
Chapter 11 Cases in an efficient and timely manner. 
6. 
RL&F understands that the Debtors are seeking to employ (i) Weil, 
Gotshal & Manges LLP (“Weil”), as general restructuring counsel; (ii) Omni Agent Solutions, 
Inc., as claims and notice agent and administrative agent; and (iii) AlixPartners, LLP, as financial 
advisor.  RL&F also understands that the Debtors intend to monitor carefully these and any other 
retained professionals to ensure a clear delineation of their respective duties and roles so as to 
prevent duplication of effort.  RL&F recognizes that efficient coordination of efforts among the 
Debtors’ professionals will greatly add to the effective administration of these Chapter 11 Cases. 
Services to be Provided 
7. 
The Debtors require RL&F to render a variety of legal services during the 
pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases and to assist the Debtors in addressing the myriad issues that 
may arise.  Subject to further order of the Court, the Debtors request the employment and 
retention of RL&F to render professional services, including, but not limited to: 
a. 
Assisting in pre-bankruptcy preparation and planning; 
b. 
assisting in preparing necessary petitions, motions, applications, answers, 
orders, reports, and papers necessary to commence these Chapter 11 
Cases;  
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 20 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
4
c. 
advising the Debtors of their rights, powers, and duties as debtors and 
debtors in possession under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
d. 
taking all necessary actions to protect and preserve the Debtors’ estates, 
including the prosecution of actions on the Debtors’ behalf, the defense of 
any actions commenced against the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases, the 
negotiation of disputes in which the Debtors are involved, and the 
preparation of objections to claims filed against the Debtors’ estates; 
e. 
assisting with any sale or sales of assets, including preparing any 
necessary motions and papers related thereto; 
f. 
assisting in preparing the Debtors’ disclosure statement and any related 
motions, pleadings, or others documents necessary to solicit votes on any 
plan of reorganization; 
g. 
assisting in preparing the Debtors’ chapter 11 plan; 
h. 
prosecuting on behalf of the Debtors any proposed plan and seeking 
approval of all transactions contemplated therein and in any amendments 
thereto; and 
i. 
performing all other necessary legal services in connection with the 
prosecution of these Chapter 11 Cases. 
8. 
In addition to those services set forth in paragraphs 7(a) through 7(i) 
above, RL&F may perform other services assigned by the Debtors, in consultation with Weil.  
To the extent RL&F determines that such services, including those services set forth in 
paragraph 7(i) above, fall outside of the scope of services historically or generally performed by 
RL&F as counsel in a bankruptcy case, RL&F will file a supplemental declaration.  RL&F has 
and will continue to work closely with the Debtors’ other professionals, including Weil, to 
prevent any duplication of efforts in the course of advising the Debtors.  RL&F is willing and 
able to act in the Debtors’ cases and render the necessary professional services as bankruptcy co-
counsel to the Debtors on the terms described herein, and subject itself to the jurisdiction of the 
Court.

Professional Compensation 
9. 
Subject to approval of this Court and in compliance with the applicable 
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules, RL&F intends to 
apply for compensation for professional services rendered in connection with the Chapter 11 
Cases, plus reimbursement of actual, necessary expenses and other charges incurred by RL&F 
during the Debtors’ bankruptcy cases. 
10. 
RL&F’s current hourly rates for matters related to these Chapter 11 Cases 
are expected to be within the following ranges: 
Position 
Range of Hourly Rates 
Directors 
$850 to $1,300 an hour 
Counsel 
$725 to $750 an hour 
Associates 
$425 to $700 an hour 
Paraprofessionals 
$315 an hour 
11. 
The principal professionals and paraprofessionals designated to represent 
the Debtors and their current standard hourly rates are as follows: 
a. 
Daniel J. DeFranceschi 
 
$1,100 per hour 
b. 
Amanda R. Steele 
 
 
$875 per hour 
c. 
Zachary I. Shapiro 
 
 
$850 per hour 
d. 
Matthew P. Milana 
 
 
$600 per hour 
e. 
Huiqi Liu 
 
 
 
$475 per hour 
f. 
M. Lynzy McGee 
 
 
$315 per hour 
12. 
RL&F’s hourly rates are set at a level designed to compensate RL&F 
fairly for the work of its attorneys and paralegals and to cover fixed and routine expenses.  
Hourly rates vary with the experience and seniority of the individuals assigned.  These hourly 
rates are subject to periodic adjustments to reflect economic and other conditions (which 
adjustments will be reflected in the first RL&F fee application following such adjustments) and 
are consistent with the rates charged elsewhere.  Other than these potential periodic adjustments, 
RL&F does not expect any changes during the pendency of these Chapter 11 Cases.  
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 22 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
6
Notwithstanding the consistent hourly rates, RL&F as a practice reviews all time charges and 
makes adjustments as necessary to correct any inefficiencies that may appear before billing. 
13. 
RL&F has not shared or agreed to share any of its compensation received 
from the Debtors with any other persons, except as permitted by section 504 of the Bankruptcy 
Code. 
14. 
The Debtors do not owe RL&F any amount for services rendered or 
expenses incurred prior to the Petition Date, and thus RL&F is not a prepetition creditor of the 
Debtors. 
15. 
In addition, consistent with the Guidelines for Reviewing Applications for 
Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses Filed Under 11 U.S.C. § 330 by Attorneys in 
Larger Chapter 11 Cases Effective as of November 1, 2013, I submit the following information: 
a. 
RL&F did not agree to any variations from, or alternatives to, its standard 
or customary billing arrangements for this engagement; 
b. 
None of RL&F’s professionals, included in this engagement, have varied 
their rate based on geographic location for these Chapter 11 Cases; 
c. 
RL&F has advised the Debtors in connection with their restructuring 
efforts and in contemplation of these Chapter 11 Cases since on or about 
September 9, 2022.  The billing rates, except for RL&F’s standard and 
customary periodic rate adjustments as set forth above, and material 
financial terms have not changed postpetition from the prepetition 
arrangement; and 
d. 
RL&F, in conjunction with the Debtors, is developing a prospective 
budget and staffing plan for these Chapter 11 Cases. 
16. 
It is RL&F’s policy to charge its clients in all areas of practice for all other 
expenses incurred in connection with the client’s case.  The expenses charged to clients include, 
among other things, regular mail, and express mail charges, special or hand delivery charges, 
document processing charges, printing/photocopying charges, travel expenses, expenses for 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 23 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
7
“working meals,” computerized research charges, transcription costs as well as non-ordinary 
overhead expenses such as secretarial and other overtime.  RL&F will charge the Debtors for 
these expenses in a manner and at rates consistent with charges made generally to RL&F’s other 
clients or as previously fixed by this Court.  RL&F believes that it is reasonable and fair to 
charge these expenses to the clients incurring them instead of increasing hourly rates and 
spreading these expenses among all clients. 
Evergreen Retainer 
17. 
Prior to the Petition Date, RL&F received total payments from the Debtors 
in the amount of $235,428 (the “Retainer”) to serve as a retainer and to cover fees and expenses 
actually incurred, as well as anticipated to be incurred, prior to, and in connection with, the 
Debtors’ restructuring and the commencement of these chapter 11 cases.  Prior to the Petition 
Date, RL&F drew down the entirety of the Retainer (the “Draw Down Amount”) for fees and 
expenses actually incurred and anticipated to be incurred through the Petition Date.  Thus, at the 
time of filing these Chapter 11 Cases, the Retainer had a zero balance.  RL&F intends to 
promptly complete a final accounting of all amounts actually incurred as fees and expenses prior 
to the Petition Date.  To that end, RL&F also intends to complete a true-up against the Draw 
Down Amount and credit back to the Retainer the excess amounts, if any, with all such amounts 
to be held as an evergreen retainer in the bankruptcy cases as discussed in the Application.   
18. 
An accounting summary of payments made to RL&F during the 90-day 
period prior to the Petition Date and the actual and estimated amounts incurred by RL&F is 
attached hereto as Exhibit 4.

RLF1 27977256v.2

RL&F’s Disinterestedness 
19. 
RL&F maintains and systematically updates its conflict check system in 
the regular course of its business, and it is the regular practice of RL&F to make and maintain 
these records.  The conflict system maintained by RL&F is designed to include (i) every active 
matter on which RL&F is engaged, (ii) every closed matter on which RL&F has been engaged 
since 1990, (iii) the entity by which it is now or has been engaged, (iv) the identity of related 
parties, (v) the identity of adverse parties, and (vi) the attorney at RL&F who is knowledgeable 
about the matter.  It is the policy of RL&F that no new matter may be accepted or opened within 
the firm without completing and submitting to those charged with maintaining the conflict check 
system the information necessary to check each such matter for conflicts, including: (a) the 
identity of the prospective client, (b) the matter, and (c) the related and adverse parties.  
Accordingly, the database is updated for every new matter undertaken by RL&F.  The scope of 
the system is a function of the completeness and accuracy of the information submitted by the 
attorney opening a new matter. 
20. 
With the exception of those entities listed on Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2, 
insofar as I have been able to ascertain, neither I, RL&F, nor any other attorney, including any 
director, counsel or associate of RL&F currently represents, or has in the past represented, or has 
any connection with, the Debtors’ largest creditors, any significant beneficiaries of the Debtors 
(holding 5% or more of the beneficial interests in the Debtors), or any of the potential parties in 
interest, all as set forth on Exhibit 3 attached hereto (collectively, the “Parties in Interest”), 
except as hereinafter set forth. 
21. 
Through the procedures set forth above, RL&F has determined that it has 
in the past represented, currently represents, and/or may in the future represent, the Parties in 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 25 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
9
Interest (or affiliates thereof) set forth on Exhibit 1 attached hereto (who are current clients) and 
the Parties in Interest (or affiliates thereof) set forth on Exhibit 2 attached hereto (who are 
former clients that RL&F has represented within the last five (5) years).  With the exception of 
Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”) and a certain related affiliate of U.S. Bank 
Trust National Association (“U.S. Bank”), I do not believe that any single matter is a major 
engagement that would involve either the billing of fees in excess of one half of one percent 
(0.5%) of RL&F’s annual fees billed, or that, in the aggregate for any related group of entities, 
exceeds one percent (1%) of RL&F’s annual fees billed.  RL&F currently represents WSFS and 
U.S. Bank in general corporate and transactional matters wholly unrelated to the Debtors and 
these Chapter 11 Cases.   
22. 
In addition, RL&F provided general Delaware corporate advice to 
American Express Company (“AmEx”) related to the Debtors’ sale of their legacy online 
lending platform to affiliates of American Express (the “AmEx Transaction”).  RL&F advised 
AmEx solely on issues of Delaware law.  RL&F’s representation of AmEx in connection with 
the AmEx Transaction concluded on or around September 2020.   To address any potential 
conflict of interest arising from RL&F’s past, current and future representations of AmEx and 
certain related affiliates, RL&F obtained a written waiver from the Debtors.  Pursuant to such 
waiver, the Debtors, among other things, waived any actual or arguable conflict of interest in 
connection with RL&F’s past representation of AmEx and continuing to represent AmEx and 
certain affiliates in unrelated matters.  Further, RL&F will not disclose any confidential 
information belonging to AmEx to the Debtors and vice versa.  To that end, RL&F has 
established an internal ethical wall between this matter and any matters in which RL&F has 
represented and currently represents AmEx and any affiliates thereof.  In addition, none of the 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 26 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
10
RL&F professionals involved in the representation of AmEx in the above referenced 
representation or any other representation of AmEx or any affiliate thereof is or will be involved 
in the representation of the Debtors in these Chapter 11 Cases.  Further, RL&F has not 
represented and will not represent AmEx or any affiliate thereof in connection with the Debtors’ 
current restructuring and these Chapter 11 Cases and, in fact, I believe AmEx is represented by 
separate counsel in connection with all such matters.  I do not believe this representation 
precludes RL&F from being a disinterested party under the Bankruptcy Code. 
23. 
In any event, while RL&F currently represents, and in the past has 
represented certain Parties in Interest, it will not represent any of the Parties in Interest or any 
other party in interest (including, without limitation WSFS, U.S. Bank and AmEx), other than 
the Debtors, in any facet relating to the Debtors or these Chapter 11 Cases.   
24. 
I do not believe there is any connection or interest (as such terms are used 
in section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 2014(a)) between RL&F and (i) 
the U.S. Trustee or any person employed by the U.S. Trustee or (ii) any counsel, accountants, 
financial consultants, and investment bankers who represent or may represent claimants or other 
parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases, except as otherwise described herein.  In addition, as 
part of its practice, RL&F appears in cases, proceedings and transactions involving many 
different attorneys, counsel, accountants, financial consultants, and investment bankers, some of 
which now or may in the future represent claimants and parties in interest in the Debtors’ 
Chapter 11 Cases.  Except as set forth herein, RL&F has not represented and will not represent 
any such entities in relation to the Debtors and their Chapter 11 Cases, nor does RL&F have any 
relationship with any such entities where such relationship would be adverse to the Debtors or 
their estates.   
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 27 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
11
25. 
Except as set forth herein, and based upon the information available to me, 
neither I, RL&F, nor any attorney employed by RL&F, including any director, counsel or 
associate thereof, insofar as I have been able to ascertain, holds or represents any interest adverse 
to the Debtors or their estates.  In addition, RL&F is not a creditor of the Debtors.  Therefore, 
based upon the information available to me, I believe that RL&F is a “disinterested person” as 
that term is defined in section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code, as modified by section 1107(b) 
of the Bankruptcy Code. 
26. 
No promises have been received by RL&F, or by any director, counsel or 
associate thereof, as to compensation in connection with these cases other than in accordance 
with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules.  RL&F 
has no agreement with any other entity to share with such entity any compensation received by 
RL&F, other than the directors of RL&F. 
27. 
Based on the foregoing, except to the extent set forth in the next 
paragraph, to the best of my knowledge, information and belief and in accordance with 
Bankruptcy Rule 5002, no attorney, including any director, counsel or associate, of RL&F, has a 
connection with any United States Bankruptcy Judge for the District of Delaware, any of the 
District Court Judges for the District of Delaware who handle bankruptcy cases, the United 
States Trustee for Region 3, the Assistant United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, the 
attorney for the U.S. Trustee assigned to the Chapter 11 Cases or any other employee of the U.S. 
Trustee that would render RL&F’s retention in the Chapter 11 Case improper.  Accordingly, I 
understand that the appointment of RL&F is not prohibited by Bankruptcy Rule 5002.   
28. 
Kevin Gross, who was elected as a director of RL&F effective as of April 
1, 2020, was a bankruptcy judge for the Court between March 13, 2006 and March 12, 2020.  
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 51-1    Filed 10/05/22    Page 28 of 50

 
 
RLF1 27977256v.2 
12
While Mr. Gross is not one of the principal professionals expected to perform services on behalf 
of the Debtors, if the circumstances warrant it, he may perform such services during the 
pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. 
29. 
In addition, as noted above, the Debtors have numerous creditors and 
relationships with various individuals and entities that may be Parties in Interest in the Chapter 
11 Cases.  Consequently, although every reasonable effort has been made to discover all 
connections with the Parties in Interest, including the efforts outlined herein, RL&F is unable to 
state with certainty whether every possible connection has been discovered.  If, however, RL&F 
discovers any information that is contrary or pertinent to the statements made herein, including if 
any attorney employed by RL&F, including any director, counsel or associate thereof, has any 
connection with any of the Parties in Interest, RL&F will promptly disclose such information to 
the Court. 
30. 
RL&F will conduct an ongoing review of its files to ensure that no 
conflicts or other disqualifying circumstances exist or arise.  Pursuant to Local Rule 2014-1, to 
the extent that RL&F learns of any additional material information relating to its employment 
(such as potential or actual conflicts of interest), RL&F will file and serve a supplemental 
affidavit or declaration with the Court setting forth the additional information. 
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing 
is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.

Retainer amount drawn down based on services 
performed and anticipated to be performed 
through the Petition Date.  This amount 
represented a good faith estimate of the fees and 
expenses associated with all such services, 
including fees and expenses already recorded in 
RL&F’s billing system.  Any portion of the 
amounts drawn which, upon reconciliation, is 
not attributed to prepetition fees and expenses, 
will be held by RL&F as security throughout 
the Debtors’ bankruptcy cases until RL&F’s 
fees and expenses are awarded by final order 
and are then payable to RL&F.

I, Holly Loiseau, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, hereby declare that the following

“Application”)2 for authority to retain and employ Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. (“RL&F”), 
as co-counsel for the Debtors effective as of the Petition Date.  Except as otherwise noted, all 
facts in this Declaration are based on my personal knowledge of the matters set forth herein, 
information gathered from my review of relevant documents and information supplied to me by

SELECTION OF RL&F AS CO-COUNSEL 
2. 
The Debtors seek to retain Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP as their lead 
bankruptcy counsel in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.  Upon determining that these 
Chapter 11 Cases would be filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of 
Delaware, the Debtors selected RL&F to serve as their Delaware co-counsel.  RL&F was 
selected because of the firm’s extensive experience and knowledge in the field of debtor’s and 
creditor’s rights, business reorganizations and liquidations under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy 
Code, its expertise, experience and knowledge in practicing before this Court, its proximity to 
the Court, its ability to respond quickly to emergency hearings and other emergency matters, and 
its familiarity with the Debtors and their businesses due to RL&F’s prepetition representation of 
the Debtors.  As such, the Debtors believe that RL&F is uniquely qualified to represent them in 
these Chapter 11 Cases. 
RATE STRUCTURE 
3. 
In my capacity as General Counsel, I, and others acting under my 
direction, are responsible for assisting the Debtors in supervising outside counsel retained by the 
Debtors.  In my experience working with other outside law firms on other matters, I believe that 
RL&F’s rates are comparable to those of firms similar to RL&F.  I, and others acting under my 
direction, are also responsible for reviewing the invoices regularly submitted by RL&F, and I 
understand that the rates RL&F charged the Debtors in the prepetition period are the same as the 
rates RL&F will charge the Debtors in the postpetition period, subject to annual and customary 
firm-wide adjustments in the ordinary course of RL&F’s business.

COST SUPERVISION 
4. 
RL&F and the Debtors are in the process of developing a prospective 
budget and staffing plan for the first interim period in these Chapter 11 Cases.  The Debtors 
recognize that in large chapter 11 cases such as this, it is possible there may be unforeseen fees 
and expenses that will need to be addressed by the Debtors and RL&F.  The Debtors also 
recognize it is their responsibility to closely monitor the billing practices of RL&F to ensure that 
fees and expenses paid by their estates remain consistent with the Debtors’ expectations taking 
into account the exigencies of these Chapter 11 Cases.  To that end, the Debtors will continue to 
review and monitor the regular invoices submitted by RL&F and, together with RL&F, 
periodically amend the budget and staffing plans to reflect developments in these cases as 
applicable. 
5. 
The Debtors will continue to monitor the fees and expense reimbursement 
process during these Chapter 11 Cases and ensure the Debtors are an active participant in that 
process.  Recognizing that every chapter 11 case is unique, the Debtors, together with RL&F, 
will utilize the budgeting process to provide guidance on the period of time involved and the 
level of attorneys and professionals who will work on various matters, as well as the projection 
of average hourly rates for the attorneys and professionals for such matters.
