TEMPORARY RECEIVER’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE HIS REPLY IN
SUPPORT OF HIS FIRST APPLICATION FOR ALLOWANCE OF COMPENSATION
FOR SERVICES RENDERED AND REIMBURSEMENT OF ACTUAL AND
NECESSARY EXPENSES FOR THE PERIOD
SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 THROUGH OCTOBER 31, 2014

IN EXCESS OF THE PAGE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN L.R. 7.0(f)

Temporary Receiver Eric Johnson (“Temporary Receiver’), by counsel, submits the
following Motion for Leave to file a reply memorandum in support of his First Application for
Allowance of Compensation for Services Rendered and Reimbursement of Actual and Necessary
Expenses for the Period September 18, 2014 through October 31, 2014 (the “Application’’) in
excess of the ten (10) page limitation set forth in Local Rule 7.0(f), and in support thereof states
as follows:

1. The Application in this action seeks compensation for services performed by
Temporary Receiver and the four professional firms retained by Temporary Receiver.

2 Temporary Receiver seeks permission to present excess pages of argument
because the subject matter of the Application involves several issues of fact and law, including
Temporary Receiver’s duties, the actions taken by Temporary Receiver and his professionals,
and the proper standards for fee applications. Those extra pages were needed so that the issues

that are presently before the Court can be sufficiently addressed.

WHEREFORE, Temporary Receiver respectfully requests that the Court enter the Order
