OVERVIEW IN SUPPORT OF GRANTING THE MOTIONS 1. We, Lawrence Deutsch and Lionel Z. Glancy, are partners in the law firms of Berger Montague, and Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”), respectively.1 Berger Montague and GPM (together, “Lead Counsel”) represent the Court-appointed Co-Lead Plaintiffs, ODS Capital LLC, Barry A. Smith, and Sunil Shah (collectively, “Lead Plaintiffs”) and named Plaintiff Adam Kayce (together with Lead Plaintiffs, “Plaintiffs” or “Class Representatives”) in this consolidated securities class action lawsuit (the “Action”). We have personal knowledge of the matters set forth herein based on our supervision of, and participation in, the prosecution and settlement of the claims asserted in the Action. 2. We submit this Declaration in support of Plaintiffs’ motion, pursuant to Rule 23(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, for final approval of the proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) that the Court preliminarily approved by its July 22, 2019 Order Preliminarily Approving Settlement and Providing for Notice (the “Preliminary Approval Order”). See ECF No. 124. We also submit this Declaration in support of: (a) Plaintiffs’ motion for approval of the proposed plan for allocating the proceeds of the Settlement to eligible Settlement Class Members (the “Plan of Allocation”); and (b) Lead Counsel’s motion on behalf of all Plaintiffs’ Counsel for an award of attorneys’ fees in the amount of 33% of the Settlement Fund, reimbursement of Plaintiffs’ Counsel’s expenses of $154,469.29, and awards pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”) totaling $6,000 for time spent by Co-Lead Plaintiffs 1 Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings set forth in the Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement, dated December 20, 2018 (the “Stipulation”). ECF No. 101-1. 498672.1 1 Case 1:17-cv-01866-ER Document 136 Filed 10/02/19 Page 6 of 36 Barry A. Smith and Sunil Shah ($2,500 each) and named Plaintiff Adam Kayce ($1,000) in connection with their representation of the Settlement Class (the “Fee and Expense Application”).2 3. The proposed Settlement before the Court provides for the resolution of claims in the Action against Defendants, and the Defendants’ Releasees, in exchange for a cash payment of $6,500,000.3 Plaintiffs and Lead Counsel submit that the Settlement represents a favorable result for the Settlement Class in light of the significant risks in the Action, most notably the bankruptcy of Defendant Patriot National, Inc. (“Patriot National” or the “Company”), and the practical limits of recovery from the individual Defendants and their insurers. The Settlement provides valuable benefit to the Settlement Class by conferring a certain and immediate recovery while avoiding the significant risks of continued litigation concerning a bankrupt company, including the risk that the Settlement Class could recover less than the Settlement Amount (or nothing) after years of additional litigation. 4. The proposed Settlement is the result of significant efforts by Plaintiffs’ Counsel, which included: (a) conducting extensive investigations of the claims asserted in the Action, including detailed reviews of SEC filings, press releases, analyst reports, news reports and other public information; (b) consultation with forensic accounting and damages experts; (c) researching and filing the initial Gingello v. Patriot National, Inc., et al. class action complaint (“Gingello”), filed March 14, 2017 (ECF No. 1); (d) researching and filing the Kayce v. Patriot 2 Lead Plaintiff ODS Capital LLC is not requesting a PSLRA award. 3 The Settlement does not resolve claims against Defendants consolidated into the Action on July 22, 2019. See ECF No. 123; ¶¶ 32-33, infra. 498672.1 2 Case 1:17-cv-01866-ER Document 136 Filed 10/02/19 Page 7 of 36 National, Inc., et al. class action complaint (“Kayce”), filed on September 20, 2017;4 (e) researching and filing the 210-page Consolidated Amended Class

  • (R&D) Tax Credit
    Report toThe the Pennsylvania Pennsylvania Department of General Revenue Assembly Bureau of Research on the Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue Bureau of Research March 15, 2016 Pennsylvania Research and Development Tax Credit Page 1 of 14 The Pennsylvania R&D Tax Credit Statute On May 7, 1997, Act 7 of 1997 created the Pennsylvania research and development (R&D) tax credit. The R&D tax credit provision became Article XVII-B of the Tax Reform Code of 1971 (TRC). The intent of the R&D tax credit was to encourage taxpayers to increase R&D expenditures within the Commonwealth in order to enhance economic growth. The terms and concepts used in the calculation of the Commonwealth’s R&D tax credit are based on the federal government’s R&D tax credit definitions for qualified research expense.1 For R&D tax credits awarded between December 1997 and December 2003, Act 7 of 1997 authorized the Department of Revenue (Department) to approve up to $15 million in total tax credits per fiscal year. Additionally, $3 million of the $15 million was set aside for “small” businesses, where a “small business” is defined as a “for-profit corporation, limited liability company, partnership or proprietorship with net book value of assets totaling…less than five million dollars ($5,000,000).” Over the years, several changes have been made to the R&D tax credit statute. Table 1 lists all of the acts that have changed the R&D tax credit statute, along with the applicable award years, the overall tax credit cap and the “small” business set aside.

  • The Most Compensation
    Thanks to new Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, most companies were required to provide previously undisclosed information on executive pay. The additional information gives a more accurate picture of overall compensation, but makes comparisons with prior year’s pay impossible.
