STAR IN SUPPORT OF THE 21 APPLICATION AUTHORIZING THE EMPLOYMENT AND RETENTION OF FTI 22 CONSULTING, INC. AS FINANCIAL ADVISOR TO THE OFFICIAL COMMITTEE OF UNSECURED CREDITORS NUNC PRO TUNC TO SEPTEMBER 14, 2018 23 Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, Samuel E. Star declares as follows: 24 1. I am a Senior Managing Director with FTI Consulting, Inc., together with its wholly 25 26 owned subsidiaries (“FTI”), an international consulting firm. I submit this declaration (the “First 27 Supplemental Declaration”) to supplement my prior declaration that was submitted in connection 28 Case 2:18-bk-20151-ER Doc 1439 Filed 02/01/19 Entered 02/01/19 15:26:06 Desc Main Document Page 2 of 108 1 with FTI’s retention in these Chapter 11 cases. Unless otherwise noted, I have personal knowledge 2 of the facts set forth herein1. 3 2. On August 31, 2018, the Debtors commenced these cases by filing voluntary petitions 4 for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. 5 3. On October 25, 2018, the Committee filed an application to retain FTI as its Financial 6 7 Advisor (the “Application”). In support of the Application, FTI filed a declaration (the “Original 8 Declaration”) executed by the undersigned on behalf of FTI in accordance with the applicable 9 sections of the Bankruptcy Code. On or about November 14, 2018, an order was submitted 10 authorizing the retention of FTI as financial advisor to the Committee (the “Retention Order”). 11 4. In connection with the preparation of the Original Declaration, FTI conducted a 12 review of its contacts with the Debtors, their affiliates and certain entities holding large claims 13 against or interests in the Debtors that were made reasonably known to FTI. As noted in the Original 14 15 Declaration it is FTI’s policy and intent to update its ongoing relationship search during these 16 proceedings. To this end, FTI has conducted a review of its contacts with certain additional parties in 17 interest that were made reasonably known to FTI since the completion of our initial review. FTI’s 18 review, completed under my supervision, consisted of a query of the parties listed in Exhibit A 19 within an internal computer database containing names of individuals and entities that are present or 20 recent former clients of FTI. Exhibit B to this First Supplemental Declaration sets forth those names 21 and entities included in Exhibit A that FTI has identified as either present or recent former clients as 22 23 a result of this process. 24 25 26 27 1 Certain of the disclosures herein relate to matters within personal knowledge of other professionals at FTI and are 28 based on information provided by them. 2 Case 2:18-bk-20151-ER Doc 1439 Filed 02/01/19 Entered 02/01/19 15:26:06 Desc Main Document Page 3 of 108 1 5. As such, to the best of my knowledge, FTI does not hold or represent any interest 2 adverse to the estate, and therefore continues to believe it is eligible to represent the Committee 3 under Section 1103(b) of the Bankruptcy Code. 4 6. As noted in the Application, FTI’s hourly rates are subject to period adjusment. 5 Effective January 1, 2019 such hourly rates range as follows: 6 7 8 United States Per Hour (USD) 9 Senior Managing Directors $895 - 1,195 Directors / Senior Directors / Managing Directors 670 - 880 10 Consultants/Senior Consultants 355 - 640 11 Administrative / Paraprofessionals 145 - 275 12 These rates continue to be subject to periodic adjustment. 13 7. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. 14 15 [Remainder of Page Intentionally Left Blank] 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 3 Case 2:18-bk-20151-ER Doc 1439 Filed 02/01/19 Entered 02/01/19 15:26:06 Desc Main Document Page 4 of 108 3XUVXDQWWR86&,GHFODUHXQGHUSHQDOW\RISHUMXU\WKDWWKHIRUHJRLQJLVWUXHDQGFRUUHFW WRWKHEHVWRIP\NQRZOHGJHDQGEHOLHI ([HFXWHGRQ)HEUXDU\ %\ 6DPXHO(6WDU 6HQLRU0DQDJLQJ'LUHFWRU )7,&2168/7,1*,1& 7LPHV6TXDUHWK)ORRU 1HZ<RUN1< 7HOHSKRQH )LQDQFLDO$GYLVRUWRWKH2IILFLDO&RPPLWWHHRI 8QVHFXUHG&UHGLWRUV Case 2:18-bk-20151-ER Doc 1439 Filed 02/01/19 Entered 02/01/19 15:26:06 Desc Main Document Page 5 of 108 EXHIBIT A Listing of Parties-in-Interest Reviewed for Current and Recent Former Relationships Debtor's Conflicts Counsel A Designing Women Inc Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones A Party Place A R Hinkel Co Counsel to PCO A Team Security Inc Levene Neale, Bender, Yoo & Brill A Tech Consulting Inc A to Z Rental Center Inc Consultant to PCO A Woman for Women Med Group Dr. Tim Stancy Dr Jumnah Thathanapathy A&E Medical Corporation PCO A1 Oil Recycling, LLC Jacob Nathan Rubin AA Lock and Alarm Inc AA Pharmacy Debtors' Regulatory Counsel AAA Nelson Hardiman AAA Electric Motor Sales and Service Inc AAA Flag & Banner Mfg.
