DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 I, Jennifer S. Baldocchi, declare:
2 1. I am a partner in the law firm of Paul Hastings LLP (“Paul Hastings”), co-counsel
3 of record for Defendants Scharf Investments, LLC (“Scharf Investments”) and Brian Krawez
4 (collectively “Defendants”). I am submitting this supplemental declaration in support of
5 Defendants’ Reply in Support of Their Motion for Attorneys Fees. I make this supplemental
6 declaration of my own personal knowledge and, if called upon to do so, could and would testify
7 competently to the facts and information discussed below.
8 WORK PERFORMED ON THIS CASE
9 2. On May 21, 2020, Defendants filed a demand for arbitration (the “Related
10 Arbitration”) relating to multiple torts and breaches of contract by Plaintiffs Jeffrey Scharf and
11 Sherril Smith-Scharf (“Plaintiffs”). At the time, itis my understanding that Defendants hoped to
12 resolve the disputes using a single lawyer, David Chun. However, Plaintiffs aggressively replied
13 by filing counterclaims in the Related Arbitration 1 and hiring Scharf Investments’ former legal
14 counsel, Shartsis Friese, to represent Plaintiffs in addition to their earlier-retained counsel, Paul
15 Gordon. On June 29, 2020, Plaintiffs took their aggressive litigation strategy a step further and
16 filed the instant lawsuit. After itbecame clear that the Related Arbitration would not resolve
17 quickly, I was hired as co-counsel.
18 3. At the outset, my involvement in the instant ligation was minimal. Plaintiffs’
19 Complaint asserted two causes of action for breach of contract through which Plaintiffs sought
20 acceleration on notes relating to the parties’ 2016 Membership Interest Purchase Agreement
21 (“MIPA”). Although Defendants denied that this money was contractually due at the time,
22 Defendants nonetheless prepaid the notes in full on August 4, 2020. Defendants’ decision to pay
23 the notes in full was explained in Brian Krawez’s declaration submitted in support of Defendants’
24 motion for attorneys’ fees: “This decision saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in interest
25 expense. In addition, while this money was not yet contractually due, by exercising our rights to
26 prepay the Notes early, I had hoped this would eliminate any perceived financial incentive for
27
28 1 The Arbitration Panel found that every one of Plaintiffs’ counterclaims lacked merit.

SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 Plaintiffs to pursue any controversy.” Decl. of B. Krawez ISO Motion ¶ 2.
2 4. The August 4, 2020 payment should have ended this litigation. However, on
3 August 21, 2020, Plaintiffs filed a First Amended Complaint (“FAC”) adding four non-contract
4 causes of action and seeking additional damages. This was perplexing given that the notes which
5 were the subject of the initial Complaint had already been paid off. Based on the foregoing, I
6 suspected that Plaintiffs were trying to use this lawsuit to intimidate Defendants, drive costs and
7 gain leverage in the Related Arbitration.
8 5. From the date that Plaintiffs’ initial Complaint was filed through the date that
9 Plaintiffs filed the First Amended Complaint, my firm spent less than 7 hours in connection with
10 this litigation. See Baldocchi Decl. ISO Motion ¶ 18, Ex. A (redacted invoices). After the First
11 Amended Complaint was filed, my firm’s involvement in this litigation necessarily increased;
12 Defendants were forced to immediately mount a complete defense, requiring significant attorney
13 time and resources, as further described below.
14 6. Defendants’ counsel prepared two answers to the First Amended Complaint with
15 affirmative defenses (one answer was filed on behalf of each Defendant, given the individualized
16 considerations applicable to each). This necessitated a full review and analysis of the historical
17 facts of highly negotiated and complex purchase agreements and the events leading up this
18 litigation.
19 7. Defendants’ counsel then turned to the motion to stay the proceedings pending
20 resolution of the Related Arbitration. In connection with this motion, Defendants’ counsel
21 conducted a detailed review of all the allegations in the First Amended Complaint and in the
22 Related Arbitration, and performed extensive research regarding authority pertaining to a motion
23 to stay and the implications thereof. A significant amount of time was also spent drafting the
24 highly specific briefing on the motion to stay (including the notice of motion, memorandum of
25 points and authorities, the declaration in support of the motion (and the accompanying exhibits),
26 and the proposed order). Upon receiving Plaintiffs’ opposition to the motion to stay, Defendants’
27 counsel reviewed, researched, and strategized about the issues raised therein and responses.
28 Defendants’ counsel prepared a thorough reply brief in response. Finally, Defendants’ counsel
-3-
SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 had to prepare for and attend the hearing on the motion. The time and resources spent on the
2 motion to stay matched the stakes of the request – litigating the same issues before two tribunals
3 would have complicated the proceedings, risked inconsistencies, and required duplicative work
4 and resources.
5 8. The hearing on the motion to stay the proceedings was not the only time that the
6 parties appeared before the Court. In addition, Defendants’ counsel prepared for and attended a
7 case management conference, where counsel had to be prepared to discuss the pending motion to
8 stay and related issues.
9 9. In early 2021, the Court granted Defendants’ motion to stay in part, but denied the
10 motion as to Plaintiffs’ cause of action for declaratory relief and an accounting. Through the
11 remaining causes of action, Plaintiffs were able to propound discovery – namely, 15 highly
12 complex interrogatories – that they were otherwise not entitled to in the Related Arbitration
13 (Defendants had requested that the parties exchange interrogatories in the Related Arbitration but
14 Plaintiffs’ opposed this request; the Arbitration Panel agreed with Plaintiffs and did not allow
15 either side to serve interrogatories). Defendants’ counsel therefore continued their investigations
16 to prepare responses to the highly complex interrogatories. These interrogatory responses were
17 significant; not only did the interrogatories address a central issue in this litigation (i.e.whether
18 the pledge agreements were breached), but the information provided in response could have been
19 utilized in the Related Arbitration. Plus, the interrogatories were not run-of-the-mill; they sought
20 highly sensitive and confidential information regarding Defendants’ business affairs. A few
21 examples are highlighted below:
• Interrogatory No. 5 – “For each PERSON who at any time after March 18, 2018
22 had an ownership interest in any of the “Pledged Securities” referred to in
23 paragraph (a) of the Pledge Agreement attached as Exhibit E to the First
Amended Complaint herein, describe the transaction whereby that PERSON
24 obtained said ownership interest, including, without limitation, the date of the
transaction and the PERSON from whom the ownership interest was obtained.”
25
• Interrogatory No. 10 – “Please describe each instance in which YOU OR
26
ANYONE ACTING ON YOUR BEHALF received any of the things
27 (hereafter, the “EXCHANGE INTERESTS OR RIGHTS”) described in
paragraph (d)(ii) of the Pledge Agreements attached as Exhibits D, E and F to
28 the First Amended Complaint, which reads in pertinent part: “any certificates
-4-
SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 evidencing or representing any membership or economic interest or other
securities relating thereto…, options or rights, in respect of, as an addition to,
2 in substitution for or in exchange for any Pledged Securities.”
3
• Interrogatory No. 15 – “If you dispute that EXCHANGE INTERESTS OR
4 RIGHTS received by YOU OR ANYONE ACTING ON YOUR BEHALF were
to be delivered forthwith to Jeffrey Scharf or Sherril Smith-Scharf in the exact
5 form received, please state all facts that support your position.”
6 Given the nature of the requests propounded, providing complete responses required
7 Defendants’ counsel to review extensive documentary evidence, and to consult closely with
8 securities and private equity experts. Further, in an effort to provide complete responses,
9 Defendants provided both initial responses, and following meet and confer efforts, supplemental
10 responses. Katherine Bell, a partner in the Paul Hastings Global Finance and Restructuring
11 practice, and Jason Rednour, a partner at Paul Hastings whose practice focuses primarily on
12 representing private equity funds and private equity-backed companies in equity financings and
13 mergers and acquisitions were closely consulted to ensure the accuracy of the responses. Chris
14 McGrath, a partner in Paul Hastings’ Securities Litigation department assisted with drafting the
15 responses, and Jennifer Baldocchi and Jessica Mendelson consulted with case-specific knowledge
16 and background.
17 10. In connection with the Related Arbitration, the parties exchanged thousands of
18 pages of documents, conducted 10 depositions, retained multiple experts, and more – these efforts
19 culminated in a two-week arbitration and extensive post-arbitration briefing. Ultimately, the
20 Arbitration Panel found in favor of Defendants on every cause of action and ruled against Plaintiffs
21 on every one of their counter claims. It was after this ruling that Plaintiffs agreed to dismiss their
22 First Amended Complaint.
23 11. As part of the ensuing discussions pertaining to this dismissal, Paul Hastings
24 calculated and identified the fees billed in connection with this litigation. Given the overlap of facts
25 and issues between this case and the Related Arbitration, multiple billing entries included
26 work that benefitted both. These fees could have been appropriately requested in connection with this
27 litigation. However, in an effort to reach a reasonable resolution, we decided to remove these fees
28 from the fee request. Thus, a lower fee number was subsequently communicated to Plaintiffs’
-5-
SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 then-counsel. Plaintiffs’ counsel did not ask me about the fee reduction, and I am not aware of
2 them raising this issue until this motion.
3 QUALIFICATIONS & TIME SPENT ON THE CASE
4 12. I have discussed the qualifications of myself and my team in detail in my December
5 7, 2021 declaration submitted in support of the Motion for Attorney’s Fees (“December 7
6 Declaration”), which I incorporate herein by reference.
7 13. In the December 7 Declaration, I identified the hours billed by Paul Hastings LLP
8 for work done in connection with this litigation from July 2020 through October 2021. This
9 Supplemental Declaration therefore identifies and includes the hours billed by Paul Hastings LLP
10 from November 2021 through January 2022 for work done in connection with the dismissal of the
11 lawsuit and the instant Motion.
12 14. A chart consisting of the number of additional hours beyond those identified in the
13 December 7 Declaration that my team and I spent on work pertaining to this litigation follows:

27
declarations.

SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF JENNIFER S. BALDOCCHI
1 16. Associates Caitlin Falk and Emily Monroe were responsible for research relating
2 to the recovery of attorneys’ fees, and participating in discussions with the team regarding the
3 research findings.
4 17. Associates Jessica Mendelson and Caitlin Falk assisted with and revised the briefs
5 in support of the fee requests, drafted declarations, reviewed and redacted invoices in support of
6 the fee requests, reviewed documents to support the briefings on this motion, and participated in
7 strategy discussions and communications with co-counsel and the client regarding the Motion,
8 Reply, and related issues.
9 18. Attached to this declaration as Exhibit A are the invoices for Paul Hastings for our
10 work on this case as identified in the chart in paragraph 14, with information protected by the
11 attorney-client privilege and attorney work product doctrine redacted. Such fees total $52,192.18.
12 19. In addition to the aforementioned work, which represents work completed through
13 January 31, 2022, I anticipate that I will bill an additional 10 hours and Ms. Falk will bill30 hours
14 in connection with revising and finalizing this Reply and declaration, and preparing for the hearing
15 on this Motion. This will total $37,400, bringing the total additional fees to $89,592.18.
16 20. Based upon my personal involvement with this litigation and my background,
17 training, and experience, I understand the time spent in connection with this litigation to be
18 reasonable and necessary.
19 I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the
20 foregoing is true and correct.
