THIRD MONTHLY APPLICATION OF RICHARDS, LAYTON & FINGER, P.A. FOR 
ALLOWANCE OF COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES RENDERED AND FOR 
REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES AS CO-COUNSEL TO THE DEBTORS  
FOR THE PERIOD FROM DECEMBER 1, 2022 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2022 
Pursuant to sections 330 and 331 of title 11 of the United States Code, §§ 101-1532 
(the “Bankruptcy Code”), rule 2016 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the 
“Bankruptcy Rules”), rule 2016-2 of the Local Rules of Bankruptcy Practice and Procedure of 
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Local Rules”), and the 
Order Establishing Procedures for Interim Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses of 
Professionals, dated October 21, 2022 [Docket No. 136] (the “Interim Compensation Order”), 
Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. (“RL&F”) hereby files this Third Monthly Application of 
Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. for Allowance of Compensation for Services Rendered and for 
Reimbursement of Expenses as Co-Counsel to the Debtors for the Period from December 1, 2022

RLF1 28554108v.1 
as compensation and $1,594.74 for reimbursement of actual and necessary expenses, for a total of 
$204,206.24 for the period December 1, 2022 through and including December 31, 2022 (the 
“Compensation Period”).  In support of this Application, RL&F respectfully represents as 
follows: 
Background 
1. 
On October 3, 2022 (the “Petition Date”), the Debtors each commenced with this 
Court a voluntary case under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).  The 
Debtors are authorized to continue to operate their business as debtors in possession pursuant to 
sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.  No trustee, examiner, or statutory committee 
of creditors has been appointed in these Chapter 11 Cases. 
2. 
RL&F was retained effective as of the Petition Date by this Court’s order, entered 
on October 28, 2022 [Docket No. 175] (the “Retention Order”).  The Retention Order authorized 
RL&F to be compensated on an hourly basis and to be reimbursed for actual and necessary out-
of-pocket expenses. 
Compensation Paid and Its Source 
3. 
All services for which compensation is requested by RL&F were performed for or 
on behalf of the Debtors. 
4. 
Except to the extent of the retainer paid to RL&F as described in the application 
seeking approval of RL&F’s employment by the Debtors during the period covered by this 
Application, RL&F has received no payment and no promises for payment from any source for 
services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity whatsoever in connection with the matters 
covered by this Application.  There is no agreement or understanding between RL&F and any 
other person other than the directors of RL&F for the sharing of compensation to be received for

3 
RLF1 28554108v.1 
services rendered in these cases. 
Fee Statements 
5. 
The fee statement for the Compensation Period is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  
This statement contains daily time logs describing the time spent by each attorney and 
paraprofessional for this period.  To the best of RL&F’s knowledge, this Application complies 
with sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, the applicable Bankruptcy Rules, the 
Guidelines adopted by the Office of the United States Trustee, Local Rule 2016-2, and the Interim 
Compensation Order. 
Actual and Necessary Expenses 
6. 
A summary of actual and necessary expenses and daily logs of expenses incurred 
by RL&F during the Compensation Period is attached hereto as Exhibit B.  RL&F charges all of 
its bankruptcy clients $0.10 per page for photocopying expenses and $0.10 per page for printing 
jobs. 
7. 
Regarding providers of on-line legal research (e.g., LEXIS and WESTLAW), 
RL&F charges all of its clients the standard usage rates these providers charge, which, due to 
contractual flat fees, may not always equal RL&F’s actual cost.  RL&F currently is under contract 
to pay these providers a flat fee every month.  Charging its clients the on-line providers’ standard 
usage rates allows RL&F to cover adequately the monthly flat fees it must pay to these types of 
providers. 
8. 
RL&F believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority of law 
firms charges clients for such services.  In addition, RL&F believes that such charges are in 
accordance with the American Bar Association’s (“ABA”) guidelines, as set forth in the ABA’s 
Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 511    Filed 02/01/23    Page 8 of 17

RLF1 28554108v.1 
Statement of Principles, dated January 12, 1995, regarding billing for disbursements and other

services in these cases are as follows: Daniel J. DeFranceschi, Amanda R. Steele, Zachary I. 
Shapiro, Matthew P. Milana, Huiqi Vicky Liu and Zachary J. Javorsky. The paraprofessionals of 
RL&F who have provided service to these attorneys in these cases are as follows: Barbara J. 
Witters, M. Lynzy McGee, Rebecca V. Speaker and Sherry L. Pitman.   
10.

the preparation of various applications and orders submitted to the Court for consideration, advised 
the Debtors on a regular basis with respect to various matters in connection with these cases, and 
has performed all necessary professional services which are described and narrated in detail 
hereinafter.

The nature of the work performed by these persons is fully set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.  
These are RL&F’s normal hourly rates for work of this character.  The reasonable value of the 
services rendered by RL&F to the Debtors during the Compensation Period is $202,611.50. 
13. 
In accordance with the factors enumerated in Section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, 
it is respectfully submitted that the amount requested by RL&F is fair and reasonable given (a) the 
complexity of these cases, (b) the time expended, (c) the nature and extent of the services rendered, 
(d) the value of such services, and (e) the costs of comparable services other than in a case under 
this title.  Moreover, RL&F has reviewed the requirements of Local Rule 2016-2 and believes that 
this Application complies with that Rule. 
WHEREFORE, RL&F respectfully requests that the Court authorize that for the 
Compensation Period, an allowance be made to RL&F pursuant to the terms of the Interim 
Compensation Order, with respect to the sum of $202,611.50 as compensation for necessary 
professional services rendered (80% of which equals $162,089.20), and the sum of $1,594.74 as 
100% reimbursement of actual necessary costs and expenses, for a total of $204,206.24 and that 
such sums be authorized for payment and for such other and further relief as this Court may deem 
just and proper.
