JURISDICTION

1. The Court has jurisdiction over 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 matter is a core proceeding within

2 Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are defined in the First Day Declaration.

2 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 3 of 11

the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 157(b)(2). Venue of these proceedings and the Application in this

Court is proper under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.

2. The Debtors consent to entry of final orders or judgments by the Court on

this Application.

3. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 327(a) and

1107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, as supplemented by Bankruptcy Rules 2014(a) and 2016 and

Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1.

BACKGROUND

4. On October 22, 2019 (the “Petition Date”), MTE Holdings LLC (“MTE

Holdings”) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Subsequently, on October 23, 2019 (the “Affiliate Petition Date”), MTE Holdings’ parent

affiliates Olam Energy Resources I LLC and MTE Partners LLC filed voluntary petitions for

relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The remaining Debtors, all affiliates, filed voluntary bankruptcy petitions on November 8, 2019. The Debtors continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 1107(a) and

1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. No trustee, examiner, or creditors committee has been appointed in these cases.

5. The Debtors operate in Midland, Texas in the oil and gas industry.

6. Additional detail regarding the Debtors, their business, the events leading

to commencement of these cases, and the facts and circumstances supporting the relief requested

herein is set forth in the First Day Declaration.

7. The Debtors have also retained Kasowitz Benson Torres LLP

(“Kasowitz”) as bankruptcy co-counsel. Morris Nichols will coordinate with Kasowitz and the

3 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 4 of 11

Debtors’ other professionals to provide the Debtors with the highest level of service while avoiding unnecessary duplication of efforts.

RELIEF REQUESTED

8. By this Application, the Debtors respectfully request entry of an order, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, pursuant to sections 327(a) and 1107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1, authorizing the Debtors to retain and employ Morris Nichols as their bankruptcy co-counsel and

Delaware counsel nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date.

BASIS FOR RELIEF

9. Under section 327(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor in possession may employ one or more attorneys to represent it in carrying out its duties under the Bankruptcy

Code, provided that such attorneys are disinterested persons and do not hold or represent an interest adverse to the estate. Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code defines “disinterested person” as one who:

is not a creditor, an equity security holder, or an insider; . . . is not and was not, within 2 years before the date of the filing of the petition, a director, officer, or employee of the debtor; and . . . does not have an interest materially adverse to the interest of the estate or of any class of creditors or equity security holders, by reason of any direct or indirect relationship to, connection with, or interest in, the debtor, or for any other reason.

11 U.S.C. § 101(14) (2018).

10. Before commencing these chapter 11 cases, the Debtors retained Morris

Nichols to assist in advising, preparing for, and commencing cases under chapter 11 of the

Bankruptcy Code. Subject to entry of an order approving this Application, the Debtors have also retained Kasowitz to assist in prosecuting these chapter 11 cases.

4 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 5 of 11

11. The Debtors seek to retain and employ Morris Nichols because the firm’s

attorneys have extensive experience representing debtors in chapter 11 cases before this Court.

Further, Morris Nichols attorneys have become familiar with the Debtors and their business and

financial affairs through assisting the Debtors with preparing these chapter 11 cases for filing.

For these reasons, Morris Nichols is uniquely qualified to represent the Debtors as bankruptcy

co-counsel and Delaware co-counsel.

12. The Debtors request approval of the employment of Morris Nichols nunc pro tunc to the Petition Date. Nunc pro tunc relief is warranted in these cases. The Third Circuit has identified “time pressure to begin service” and absence of prejudice as factors favoring nunc pro tunc retention. See In re Ark. Co., 798 F.2d 645, 650 (3d Cir. 1986); see also Indian River

Homes, Inc. v. Sussex Tr. Co., 108 B.R. 46, 52 (D. Del. 1989). Given the size and complexity of these cases, the Debtors were not able to seek approval of Morris Nichols’s retention before

Morris Nichols began work. Nonetheless, the Debtors and Morris Nichols have filed this

Application within five weeks of the Petition Date. Under these circumstances, no party will be prejudiced and nunc pro tunc retention should be approved.

13. Finally, maintaining the Current Advance (as defined below) is appropriate in these cases. See In re Insilco Techs., Inc., 291 B.R. 628, 634 (Bankr. D. Del.

2003) (“Factors to be considered, include . . . whether terms of an engagement agreement reflect normal business terms in the marketplace; . . . the relationship between the Debtor and the professionals, i.e., whether the parties involved are sophisticated business entities with equal bargaining power who engaged in an arms-length negotiation; . . . [and] whether the retention, as proposed, is in the best interests of the estate . . .”). First, agreements regarding retainers are commonplace and “reflect normal business terms in the marketplace.” See id. at 634 (stating that

5 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 6 of 11

it is not disputed that “the taking of . . . retainers is a practice now common in the market place”).

Second, the Debtors and Morris Nichols are sophisticated entities that have negotiated the

Current Advance at arm’s length. Third, the Current Advance is in the best interests of the

Debtors and their estates because the Current Advance allows the Debtors and Morris Nichols to maintain their prepetition relationship and assure continuity of legal advice and representation through the prosecution of these bankruptcy cases. Thus, under the factors described by the

Insilco court, the facts and circumstances of these cases support the Court’s approval of the

Current Advance.

SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY MORRIS NICHOLS

14. Subject to further order of this Court, Morris Nichols will perform the following professional services for or on behalf of the Debtors in these cases:

a. perform all necessary services as the Debtors’ bankruptcy co-counsel and Delaware counsel, including, without limitation, providing the Debtors with advice, representing the Debtors, and preparing necessary documents on behalf of the Debtors in the areas of restructuring and bankruptcy;

b. take all necessary actions to protect and preserve the Debtors’ estates during these chapter 11 cases, including the prosecution of actions by the Debtors, the defense of any actions commenced against the Debtors, negotiations concerning litigation in which the Debtors are involved, and objecting to claims filed against the estates;

c. prepare or coordinate preparation on behalf of the Debtors, as debtors in possession, any necessary motions, applications, answers, orders, reports, and papers in connection with the administration of these chapter 11 cases;

d. counsel the Debtors with regard to their rights and obligations as debtors in possession;

e. counsel the Debtors on issues of Delaware law;

6 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 7 of 11

f. coordinate with the Debtors’ other professionals in representing the Debtors in connection with these cases; and

g. perform all other necessary or requested legal services.

15. Morris Nichols will work with Kasowitz and the Debtors’ other

professionals to avoid unnecessary duplication of efforts and to represent the Debtors in an

efficient and cost-effective manner.

16. The Debtors believe that Morris Nichols’s employment is in the best

interests of the Debtors, their estates, and their creditors.

17. Subject to this Court’s approval of the Application, Morris Nichols is

willing to serve as the Debtors’ bankruptcy co-counsel and Delaware counsel and to perform the services described above.

DISINTERESTEDNESS OF MORRIS NICHOLS

18. To the best of the Debtors’ knowledge, information, and belief, and except

as otherwise set forth herein and in the Dehney Declaration, no Morris Nichols partners, counsel,

or associates hold or represent any interest adverse to the Debtors’ estates or their creditors, and

Morris Nichols is a “disinterested person,” as defined in section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code.

19. Morris Nichols does not, and has not, represented any entities, other than

the Debtors, in matters related to these chapter 11 cases, except to the extent otherwise indicated

in the Dehney Declaration. Morris Nichols may represent, or may have represented in the past,

certain parties with interests in the Debtors’ cases on matters unrelated to their chapter 11 cases.

As set forth in the Dehney Declaration, Morris Nichols has conducted, and continues to conduct,

research into its connections to the Debtors, their substantial creditors and equity security

holders, and other parties interested in these cases. As part of this inquiry, Morris Nichols

obtained the names of individuals or entities that may be parties in interest in these chapter 11

7 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 8 of 11

cases (the “Potential Parties in Interest,” attached to the Dehney Declaration as Schedule 1).

Morris Nichols then entered the names of Potential Parties in Interest into a computer database containing the names of all clients and conflict information concerning the clients of Morris

Nichols.

20. From the results of this inquiry, Morris Nichols compiled a list (“Client

Match List”) of Potential Parties in Interest that are current or former Morris Nichols clients.

The Client Match List is divided into two schedules of current and former clients, respectively.

Current clients are listed on Schedule 2 attached to the Dehney Declaration and former clients are listed on Schedule 3 attached to the Dehney Declaration. Through additional inquiry, Morris

Nichols has determined its representations of clients on the Client Match List concern matters unrelated to the Debtors and these chapter 11 cases, except to the extent otherwise indicated in the Dehney Declaration. Although Morris Nichols values all of its clients, none of the entities listed on the Client Match List represent a significant portion of the firm’s annual revenue.

21. Although Morris Nichols has undertaken, and continues to undertake, efforts to identify connections with the Debtors and other parties in interest, it is possible that connections with some parties in interest have not yet been identified. Should Morris Nichols discover additional connections of the nature described above, Morris Nichols will promptly supplement the disclosures in the Dehney Declaration.

PROFESSIONAL COMPENSATION

22. Morris Nichols was retained by the Debtors on October 22, 2019, and began work the same day. On October 22, 2019, Morris Nichols received an advance payment of $50,000.00 from the Debtors, and, on November 1, 2019, received an additional advance payment of $100,000.00 from the Debtors for certain affiliates of the Debtors, for a total prepetition advance of $150,000.00. Accordingly, Morris Nichols currently holds a balance of

8 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 9 of 11

$150,000.00 as an advance payment for services to be rendered and expenses to be incurred in connection with its representation of the Debtors and certain affiliates of the Debtors (the

“Current Advance”), and Morris Nichols and the Debtors request authority to continue to maintain the Current Advance during these cases.3

23. Morris Nichols’s Compensation during these cases will be based upon the hours actually expended by each assigned professional at each professional’s hourly billing rate, as detailed further in the Dehney Declaration. Subject to Court approval in accordance with

Bankruptcy Code sections 330 and 331, the Bankruptcy Rules, the Local Rules, and the orders of this Court, the Debtors propose to compensate Morris Nichols for professional services rendered at its normal and customary hourly rates in effect from time to time as set forth in the Dehney

Declaration.

24. Morris Nichols will also seek reimbursement for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred, which shall include travel, photocopying, delivery service, postage, vendor charges, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing professional services, charged at cost.

25. Morris Nichols intends to apply to the Court for the allowance of compensation for professional services rendered and reimbursement of expenses incurred in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the Local Rules.

STATEMENT REGARDING U.S. TRUSTEE GUIDELINES

26. Morris Nichols intends to use its reasonable best efforts to comply with the Guidelines for Reviewing Applications for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses

3 Morris Nichols has not been paid any other compensation by the Debtors within the 90 days before the Petition Date, and Morris Nichols is not a creditor of the Debtors.

9 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 10 of 11

Filed Under 11 U.S.C. § 330 by Attorneys in Larger Chapter 11 Cases, effective as of November

1, 2013 (the “Appendix B Guidelines”). To that end, Morris Nichols provides the following statements in response to the request for additional information set forth in Part D.1. of the

Appendix B Guidelines:

Question: Did you agree to any variations from, or alternatives to, your standard or customary billing arrangements for this engagement?

Response: No.

Question: Do any of the professionals included in this engagement vary their rate based on the geographic location of the bankruptcy case?

Response: No.

Question: If you represented the client in the 12 months prepetition, disclose your billing rates and material financial terms for the prepetition engagement, including any adjustments during the 12 months prepetition. If your billing rates and material financial terms have changed postpetition, explain the difference and the reasons for the difference.

Response: In connection with the chapter 11 cases, Morris Nichols was retained by the Debtors pursuant to the engagement letter dated October 22, 2019. The material terms of the prepetition restructuring engagement are the same as the terms described in the Dehney Declaration.

For work performed for the Debtors in 2019, Morris Nichols’s hourly rates were as follows:

Partners $675–1,100 Associates and Special Counsel $425–695 Paraprofessionals $285–330

Morris Nichols’s regular rates are adjusted on an annual basis and, as such, were adjusted on January 1, 2019. These regular rates are applicable to Morris Nichols’s postpetition work in connection with the chapter 11 cases.

Question: Has your client approved your prospective budget and staffing plan, and, if so, for what budget period?

10 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139 Filed 11/26/19 Page 11 of 11

Response: Morris Nichols, in conjunction with the Debtors and the Debtors’ other professionals, is developing a budget and staffing plan for these chapter 11 cases for the period beginning October 22, 2019, ending January 31, 2020. Morris Nichols, the Debtors, and the Debtors other professionals will review such budget following the close of the budget period to determine a budget for the following period.

In re: Chapter 11

MTE HOLDINGS LLC, et al., Case No. 19-12269 (KBO)

Debtors.1 Jointly Administered

DECLARATION OF ROBERT J. DEHNEY IN SUPPORT OF THE DEBTORS’ APPLICATION FOR ENTRY OF AN ORDER UNDER SECTIONS 327(a) AND 1107(b) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, BANKRUPTCY RULES 2014 AND 2016, AND LOCAL RULES 2014-1 AND 2016-1 AUTHORIZING RETENTION AND EMPLOYMENT OF MORRIS, NICHOLS, ARSHT & TUNNELL LLP AS BANKRUPTCY CO-COUNSEL AND DELAWARE COUNSEL FOR THE DEBTORS NUNC PRO TUNC TO THE PETITION DATE

I, ROBERT J. DEHNEY, hereby declare under penalty of perjury:

1. I am a partner at Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP (“Morris

Nichols”), which maintains an office for the practice of law at 1201 North Market Street, 16th

Floor, Wilmington, Delaware 19801. I am an attorney at law, duly admitted and in good

standing to practice in the states of Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and New York as well

as the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the United States Court of

Appeals for the Third Circuit.

2. I submit this declaration (the “Declaration”) in connection with the

Debtors’ Application for Entry of an Order Under Sections 327(a) and 1107(b) of the

Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1

Authorizing Retention and Employment of Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP as Bankruptcy

Co-Counsel and Delaware Counsel for the Debtors Nunc Pro Tunc to the Petition Date (the

“Application”)2 and to provide certain disclosures under sections 327(a) and 329(a) of title 11 of

the United States Code (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”), rules 2014 and 2016 of the

Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Bankruptcy Rules”), and rules 2014-1 and 2016-1

of the Local Rules of Bankruptcy Practice and Procedure of the United States Bankruptcy Court

for the District of Delaware (the “Local Rules”).

3. Except as otherwise indicated, I have personal knowledge of the matters

set forth herein and, if called as a witness, would testify competently hereto.3

4. By separate application, the Debtors seek to retain and employ Kasowitz

Benson Torres LLP (“Kasowitz”) as bankruptcy co-counsel in these chapter 11 cases. Morris

Nichols intends to work cooperatively with Kasowitz and the Debtors’ other professionals to

provide effective and cost-efficient representation of the Debtors in these chapter 11 cases and

avoid unnecessary duplication of efforts.

5. Morris Nichols’s attorneys have specialized knowledge and experience in

bankruptcy, reorganization and restructuring, corporate litigation, corporate governance, and

other areas that are or may be relevant to these chapter 11 cases.

6. Insofar as I have been able to ascertain, Morris Nichols and its partners, associates, and counsel do not have any material connection with the Debtors, their significant creditors, or any other parties in interest, or any of their respective attorneys or accountants, other than as described in this Declaration.

2 Capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in the Application. Morris Nichols does not waive by the Application, this Declaration, and its contents, and hereby reserves and preserves all privileges.

3 Certain of the disclosures herein relate to matters within the knowledge of other attorneys at Morris Nichols and are based on information provided by them.

2 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 4 of 45

7. Due to the size and diversity of the firm’s practice, Morris Nichols may

have represented or otherwise dealt with or may now be representing or otherwise dealing with

certain entities or persons (and their attorneys or accountants) who are or may consider

themselves to be creditors, equity security holders, or parties interested in these cases. However,

Morris Nichols does not and will not represent any entity other than the Debtors in connection

with these cases.

8. In addition, Morris Nichols is or has been engaged in a number of matters

in which attorneys and other professionals representing various parties in interest in these cases

are or have also been involved; in a number of cases, Morris Nichols and those professionals

represent or have represented the same clients. Moreover, due to the nature and size of its

practice, Morris Nichols has or has had relationships as local, co-counsel, or referring counsel

with many major law firms in most, if not all, major cities in the United States, which includes

law firms representing creditors or other parties in interest in these cases; all such relationships

are on matters unrelated to these cases. Morris Nichols is also a member of certain lawyer

associations and networks, including TerraLex, a worldwide network of law firms, and ALAS, a

mutual insurance company owned by law firms, each of which may include law firms

representing creditors or other parties in interest in these cases. Furthermore, Morris Nichols, as

part of its practice, also has and continues to represent agents, trustees, and similar entities in

bankruptcy cases in which participants in the related facilities may be or believe they are

creditors or other parties in interest in the above-captioned bankruptcy cases; Morris Nichols does not represent these participants and they are not generally part of Morris Nichols’s conflict system.

3 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 5 of 45

9. Morris Nichols has conducted, and continues to conduct, research into its

relations with the Debtors, their substantial creditors and equity security holders, and other

parties interested in these cases. As part of this inquiry, Morris Nichols obtained the names of

individuals or entities that may be parties in interest in these chapter 11 cases (the “Potential

Parties in Interest”) annexed hereto as Schedule 1. Morris Nichols then entered the names of

Potential Parties in Interest into a computer database containing the names of all clients and

conflict information concerning the clients of Morris Nichols. From the results of this inquiry,

Morris Nichols compiled a list (“Client Match List”)4 of Potential Parties in Interest that are

current or former Morris Nichols clients. The Client Match List is divided into two schedules of

current and former clients, respectively.

10. With additional inquiry, Morris Nichols has determined that its

representations of the Client Match Entities concern matters unrelated to these chapter 11 cases,

except to the extent otherwise indicated herein. In particular, to the best of my knowledge,

information, and belief: (i) Morris Nichols currently serves as counsel to those entities, or

affiliates of those entities, identified on the schedule annexed hereto as Schedule 2 on matters

unrelated to these cases; and (ii) Morris Nichols formerly represented those entities, or affiliates of those entities, identified on the schedule annexed hereto as Schedule 3 on matters unrelated to

these cases since October 1, 2016. Morris Nichols’s computer database covers a period of time

prior to October 1, 2016; however, consistent with the disinterestedness timeframe of two to

three years, Morris Nichols has not listed on Schedule 3 former clients for such prior period.

4 To the extent that a Client Match Entity disclosed in either Schedule 2 or Schedule 3 attached to this Declaration is not an “affiliate” (as such term is defined in section 101(2) of the Bankruptcy Code) of or is otherwise unrelated to a Potential Party in Interest, such Client Match Entity shall not be construed as an affiliate of or entity related to such Potential Party in Interest and Morris Nichols reserves all rights with respect thereto.

4 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 6 of 45

Although Morris Nichols values all of its clients, none of the entities listed on the Client Match

List represent a significant portion of the firm’s annual revenue.

11. In addition, Delaware Corporate Organizers, Inc. (“DCO”), a wholly- owned subsidiary of Morris Nichols, serves as registered agent for certain Delaware corporations and performs various non-legal corporate services, and may serve as registered agent or perform other non-legal corporate services, for entities connected to these cases. DCO does not provide legal services, however, and does not have an attorney-client relationship with any of its customers.

12. Gregory W. Werkheiser, a partner in this firm, is married to Rachel L.

Werkheiser, who, since August 31, 2009, has served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable

Christopher S. Sontchi, the Chief Bankruptcy Judge in this District.

13. Dion Wynn, a paralegal specialist with the U.S. Trustee’s office in

Delaware was an employee of Morris Nichols from 1998 to 2000.

14. Other than as set forth herein, Morris Nichols is neither a creditor of the

Debtors, an equity holder of the Debtors, nor an insider of the Debtors. For so long as it represents the Debtors, Morris Nichols will not represent any entities other than the Debtors in connection with these cases.

15. Neither Morris Nichols, including any partner, counsel, or associate thereof, nor I represent any interest adverse to the Debtors or the Debtors’ estates in the matters upon which Morris Nichols is proposed to be engaged.

16. Morris Nichols is a “disinterested person” as that term is defined in section

101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code.

5 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 7 of 45

17. Morris Nichols was retained by the Debtors on October 22, 2019, and began work the same day. On October 22, 2019, Morris Nichols received an advance payment of $50,000.00 from the Debtors, and, on November 1, 2019, received an additional advance payment of $100,000.00 from the Debtors for certain affiliates of the Debtors, for a total prepetition advance of $150,000.00.5 Accordingly, Morris Nichols currently holds a balance of

$150,000.00 as an advance payment for services to be rendered and expenses to be incurred in connection with its representation of the Debtors and certain affiliates of the Debtors (the

“Current Advance”).

18. To the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, Morris Nichols has not been paid any other compensation by the Debtors during the 90-day period prior to the

Petition Date and Morris Nichols is not a prepetition creditor of the Debtors.

19. Subject to Court approval in accordance with Bankruptcy Code sections

330 and 331, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the applicable orders and Local Rules of this Court, the

Debtors propose to pay Morris Nichols its customary hourly rates in effect from time to time as set forth herein, plus reimbursement of actual, necessary expenses incurred by Morris Nichols on the Debtors’ behalves. The following are Morris Nichols’s current hourly rates for work of this nature:

Partners $675–1,100 Associates and Special Counsel $425–695 Paraprofessionals $285–330

20. These hourly rates are subject to periodic adjustments to reflect economic and other conditions.

5 Morris Nichols’s statement pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2016 is attached to the Application as Exhibit C.

6 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 8 of 45

21. Morris Nichols will seek interim and final approval of payment of compensation and reimbursement of expenses in connection with these cases pursuant to sections

330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and the applicable orders and Local

Rules of this Court.

22. All filing fees in these chapter 11 cases have been paid.

23. Morris Nichols intends to use its reasonable best efforts to comply 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 (the “Appendix B Guidelines”). To that end, Morris Nichols provides the following statements in response to the request for additional information set forth in Part D.1. of the

Appendix B Guidelines:

Question: Did you agree to any variations from, or alternatives to, your standard or customary billing arrangements for this engagement?

Response: No.

Question: Do any of the professionals included in this engagement vary their rate based on the geographic location of the bankruptcy case?

Response: No.

7 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 9 of 45

For work performed for the Debtors in 2019, Morris Nichols’s hourly rates were as follows:

Partners $675–1,100 Associates and Special Counsel $425–695 Paraprofessionals $285–330

Question: Has your client approved your prospective budget and staffing plan, and, if so, for what budget period?

24. Morris Nichols and its partners, counsel, and associates have not received, agreed to, or been promised any compensation in connection with its representation of the

Debtors in these cases other than as set forth in the Application.

25. Morris Nichols has neither shared nor agreed to share (i) any compensation it has received or may receive with another party or person, other than with the partners, counsel, and associates of Morris Nichols, or (ii) any compensation another person or party has received or may receive.

26. The proposed employment of Morris Nichols is not prohibited by or improper under Bankruptcy Rule 5002. Except as disclosed herein, I am not related, and to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, no attorney at the Morris Nichols is related, to any United States Bankruptcy Judge or District Court Judge for the District of Delaware or to the

United States Trustee for such district or any employee in the office thereof.

8 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-2 Filed 11/26/19 Page 10 of 45

27. By reason of the foregoing, I believe that Morris Nichols is eligible for retention and employment as bankruptcy co-counsel and Delaware counsel for the Debtors pursuant to sections 327(a) and 1107(b) and the applicable Bankruptcy Rules and Local Rules.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

Executed on November 26, 2019 Wilmington, Delaware /s/ Robert J. Dehney Robert J. Dehney

DECLARATION OF MARK SIFFIN, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF MTE HOLDINGS LLC, IN SUPPORT OF THE DEBTORS’ APPLICATION FOR ENTRY OF AN ORDER UNDER SECTIONS 327(a) AND 1107(b) OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE, BANKRUPTCY RULES 2014 AND 2016, AND LOCAL RULES 2014-1 AND 2016-1 AUTHORIZING RETENTION AND EMPLOYMENT OF MORRIS, NICHOLS, ARSHT & TUNNELL LLP AS BANKRUPTCY CO-COUNSEL AND DELAWARE COUNSEL FOR THE DEBTORS NUNC PRO TUNC TO THE PETITION DATE

I, Mark Siffin, Chief Executive Officer of MTE Holdings LLC, declare the following under penalty of perjury:

1. I submit this declaration (the “Declaration”) in support of the Debtors’

Application for Entry of an Order Under Sections 327(a) and 1107(b) of the Bankruptcy Code,

Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1 Authorizing Retention and Employment of Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP as Bankruptcy Co-Counsel and

Delaware Counsel for the Debtors Nunc Pro Tunc to the Petition Date (the “Application”).2

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

1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtor’s federal tax identification number, are: MTE Holdings LLC (7894); MTE Partners LLC (1158); Olam Energy Resources I LLC (0770); MDC Energy LLC (9140); MDC Texas Operator LLC (1087); Ward I, LLC (6817); and MDC Reeves Energy LLC (3644). The Debtors’ address is 280 East 96th Street, Suite 210, Indianapolis, Indiana 46240. 2 Capitalized terms not defined in this declaration are defined in the Application. Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-4 Filed 11/26/19 Page 3 of 4

information supplied to me by other members of the Debtors’ management and the Debtors’ advisors.

THE DEBTORS’ SELECTION OF COUNSEL

2. The Debtors recognize that a comprehensive review process is necessary when selecting and managing chapter 11 counsel to ensure that bankruptcy professionals are subject to the same client-driven market forces, scrutiny, and accountability as professionals in nonbankruptcy engagements.

3. To that end, the review process utilized by the Debtors here assessed potential counsel based on their expertise in the relevant legal issues and in similar proceedings.

The Debtors selected Morris Nichols because of the firm’s extensive experience representing debtors in complex chapter 11 cases before this Court.

4. In addition, Morris Nichols has become familiar with the Debtors’ businesses, debt structure, and many of the legal issues that may arise in the context of these chapter 11 cases through assisting the Debtors in preparing these chapter 11 cases for filing. I believe that for these reasons, Morris Nichols is both well-qualified and uniquely able to represent the Debtors in these chapter 11 cases in an efficient and timely manner. Thus, the

Debtors decided to continue to retain Morris Nichols as the Debtors’ bankruptcy co-counsel and

Delaware counsel during these chapter 11 cases.

RATE STRUCTURE

5. In my capacity as Chief Executive Officer, I am responsible for supervising outside counsel retained by the Debtors in the ordinary course of business. Morris

Nichols has informed the Debtors that its rates for bankruptcy representations are comparable to the rates it charges for nonbankruptcy representations. As discussed below, I am also

2 Case 19-12269-KBO Doc 139-4 Filed 11/26/19 Page 4 of 4

responsible for reviewing the invoices regularly submitted by Morris Nichols and can confirm

that the rates Morris Nichols charged the Debtors in the prepetition period are the same as the

rates Morris Nichols will charge the Debtors in the postpetition period, subject to annual

adjustments.

COST SUPERVISION

6. The Debtors recognize that it is their responsibility to closely monitor the

billing practices of their counsel to ensure the fees and expenses paid by the estates remain

consistent with the Debtors’ expectations and the exigencies of the chapter 11 cases. As they did

prepetition, the Debtors will continue to bring discipline, predictability, client involvement, and

accountability to the counsel fees and expenses reimbursement process. To that end, the Debtors

will review and monitor the invoices that Morris Nichols submits.

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.
