The above-captioned debtors and debtors in possession (collectively, the “Debtors”)
respectfully state as follows in support of this motion:2
Relief Requested
1. The Debtors seek entry of interim and final orders, substantially in the forms
attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B (respectively, the “Interim Order” and “Final
Order”): (a) determining adequate assurance of payment for future utility services; (b)
prohibiting utility providers from altering, refusing, or discontinuing services; (c) establishing
1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtor’s federal tax identification
number, are: Z Gallerie, LLC (3816) and Z Gallerie Holding Company, LLC (5949). The location of the Debtors’ service address is: 1855 West 139th Street, Gardena, CA 90249.
2 A detailed description of the Debtors and their business, and the facts and circumstances supporting the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases, are set forth in greater detail in the Declaration of Mark Weinsten, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of Z Gallerie, LLC, in Support of Chapter 11 Petitions and First Day Motions (the “First Day Declaration”) filed contemporaneously with the Debtors’ voluntary petitions for relief filed under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) on March 11, 2019 (the “Petition Date”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Motion shall have the meanings given to them in the First Day Declaration.

procedures for determining adequate assurance of payment; (d) authorizing fee payments to
ENGIE Insight Services Inc. (“ENGIE”) for services performed; (e) requiring utility providers to
return deposits for utility services no longer in use; and (f) granting related relief. In addition,
the Debtors request that the Court schedule a final hearing within approximately 30 days of the
commencement of these chapter 11 cases to consider entry of the Final Order.
Jurisdiction and Venue
2. The United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (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. The Debtors confirm their consent, pursuant to rule 7008 of the
Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Bankruptcy Rules”), and Rule 9013-1(f) of the
Local Rules of Bankruptcy Practice and Procedure of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware (the “Local Rules”), to the entry of a final order by the Court in connection
with this motion to the extent that it is later determined that the Court, absent consent of the
parties, cannot enter final orders or judgments in connection herewith consistent with Article III
of the United States Constitution.
3. Venue is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1408 and 1409.
4. The statutory bases for the relief requested herein are sections 105(a) and 366 of
the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 6003 and 6004, and Local Rule 9013-1(m).
The Utility Services
5. In connection with the operation of their businesses and management of their
properties, the Debtors historically obtain water, sewer service, electricity, waste disposal,
natural gas, and other similar services (collectively, the “Utility Services”) from a number of
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 2 of 17
3 PHIL1 7689033v.1
utility providers or their brokers (collectively, the “Utility Providers”). A nonexclusive list of
the Utility Providers and their affiliates that provide Utility Services to the Debtors as of the
Petition Date (the “Utility Services List”) is attached hereto as Exhibit C.3
6. To manage the Debtors’ payments owed to most of their Utility Providers, Debtor
Z Gallerie, LLC entered into that certain Master Service Agreement with Ecova, Inc. (“Ecova”),
now known as ENGIE Insight Services Inc., dated January 11, 2017 (as amended, modified, and
supplemented from time to time, the “Service Agreement”). Pursuant to the Service Agreement,
the Debtors pay ENGIE the amounts invoiced for the Utility Services managed by ENGIE, plus
a monthly fee of approximately $1,500 in the ordinary course of business. As of the Petition
Date, the Debtors owe approximately $5,000 in fees under the Service Agreement to ENGIE.
7. Pursuant to the leases for several of the Debtors’ stores, certain Utility Services
are billed directly to the Debtors’ landlords and passed through to the Debtors as part of the
Debtors’ lease payments in accordance with the applicable lease agreements. The relief
requested herein is with respect to all Utility Providers supplying Utility Services to the Debtors,
but not, for the avoidance of doubt, those that indirectly supply services through the applicable
landlords.4
8. Uninterrupted Utility Services are essential to the Debtors’ ongoing business
operations and, hence, the overall success of these chapter 11 cases. As of the Petition Date, the
Debtors’ business includes 76 brick and mortar retail locations, as well as 2 distribution centers
3 Although Exhibit C attached hereto is intended to be comprehensive, the Debtors may have inadvertently
omitted one or more Utility Providers. By this motion, the Debtors request relief applicable to all Utility Providers, regardless of whether such Utility Provider is specifically identified on Exhibit C attached hereto.
4 As of the Petition Date, the Debtors are negotiating rent concessions with certain of their landlords that pay for and pass through the cost of Utility Services to the Debtors. Notwithstanding any current or future nonpayment, deferral, waiver, or other compromise of rent, the Debtors respectfully submit that such landlords be required to continue to pay for Utility Services in the ordinary course until the effective date of the rejection of the applicable lease agreement, if any, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 3 of 17
4 PHIL1 7689033v.1
and corporate offices. These locations require electricity, telecommunications, internet, heat,
water, waste management (including sewer and trash), and other utility services to operate.
Should any Utility Provider refuse or discontinue service, even for a brief period, the Debtors’
business operations would be severely disrupted, and such disruption would jeopardize the
Debtors’ ability to administer their chapter 11 cases. Such disruption would adversely affect
customer goodwill and employee relations, which, in turn, would negatively affect the Debtors’
revenues. Accordingly, it is essential that the Utility Services continue uninterrupted during the
chapter 11 cases.
9. On average, the Debtors pay approximately $148,000 each month for third-party
Utility Services, calculated as a historical average payment for the twelve-month period ending
February 28, 2019, including services paid under the Service Agreement and certain services
paid directly by the Debtors and excluding Utility Services billed directly to the Debtors’
landlords. The Debtors estimate that their cost for Utility Services during the next 30 days (not
including any deposits to be paid or fees payable to ENGIE) will be approximately $148,000.
The Debtors estimate the aggregate amount currently held as deposits or prepayments by the
Utility Providers providing services to stores that the Debtors intend to continue operating is
approximately $135,000.5
I. The Proposed Adequate Assurance and Adequate Assurance Procedures.
10. The Debtors intend to pay postpetition obligations to the Utility Providers in a
timely manner. Cash held by the Debtors, cash generated in the ordinary course of business, and
cash available to the Debtors under any postpetition financing facility will provide sufficient
5 To the extent that Utility Providers are holding deposits, the Debtors will engage with such Utility Providers to
ensure that the combination of any such deposit and funds in the Adequate Assurance Account are sufficient to satisfy the Debtors’ obligations under Section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 4 of 17
5 PHIL1 7689033v.1
liquidity to pay the Debtors’ Utility Service obligations in accordance with their prepetition
practice.
11. To provide additional assurance of payment, the Debtors propose to deposit into a
segregated account $75,000 (the “Adequate Assurance Deposit”), which represents an amount
equal to approximately one-half of the Debtors’ average monthly cost of Utility Services,
calculated based on the Debtors’ average utility expenses over the twelve-month period ending
February 28, 2019, excluding Utility Services billed directly to the Debtors’ landlords and the
average monthly fee paid to ENGIE. Postpetition, the Debtors intend to conduct store closing
sales for certain stores (the “Closing Stores”).6 Once these stores are closed and their
corresponding utilities accounts are settled, in accordance with the Adequate Assurance
Procedures described below, the Adequate Assurance Deposit will be reduced by one-half of the
average monthly cost of Utility Services provided to the Closing Stores, calculated based on the
aforementioned historical average, to align with the go-forward average monthly cost of Utility
Services.
12. The Adequate Assurance Deposit will be held in a segregated account
(the “Adequate Assurance Account”) at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JP Morgan”) for the
6 Pursuant to the Debtors’ Motion Seeking Entry of Interim and Final Orders (I) Authorizing Debtors to Reject
Certain Unexpired leases of Nonresidential Real Property, (II) Approving Procedures for Store Closing Sales, (III) Authorizing Customary Bonuses to Employees of Closing Stores, and (IV) Granting Related Relief. (the “Store Closing Motion”), filed contemporaneously herewith, the Debtors seek, on an interim and final basis store closing or similar themed sales in accordance with the terms of the store closing sale procedures. The Debtors estimate that Utility Providers servicing the Closing Stores hold a de minimus amount of additional deposits, which the Debtors intend to recover during these chapter 11 cases. Upon the closure of one of the Closing Stores, and the discontinuance of the Utility Services associated therewith, or the termination of Utility Services independent thereof, the Debtors may, in their discretion and without further order of this Court, reduce the Adequate Assurance Deposit by an amount not exceeding, for each of the Utility Services being discontinued, the lesser of (i) the estimated two-week utility expense for such Utility Services and (ii) the amount of the Adequate Assurance Deposit then attributable to the applicable Utility Provider; provided that for any Utility Provider for which the Adequate Assurance Deposit is reduced, the Debtors shall have (i) provided such Utility Provider with fourteen (14) days’ notice of such reduction and (ii) paid such Utility Provider in full for any outstanding postpetition Utility Services before reducing the Adequate Assurance Deposit.
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 5 of 17
6 PHIL1 7689033v.1
benefit of the Utility Providers and for the duration of these chapter 11 cases and may be applied
to any postpetition payment defaults owed to the Utility Providers by the Debtors. The Adequate
Assurance Deposit will be held by the Debtors; no liens will encumber the Adequate Assurance
Deposit or the Adequate Assurance Account. The Debtors submit that the Adequate Assurance
Deposit, in conjunction with the Debtors’ ability to pay for future utility services in accordance
with their prepetition practices (collectively, the “Proposed Adequate Assurance”), constitutes
sufficient adequate assurance to the Utility Providers in full satisfaction of section 366 of the
Bankruptcy Code.
13. Nevertheless, if any entity believes that it is a Utility Provider and seeks to make a
request for adequate assurance of future payment (each, an “Adequate Assurance Request”), the
Debtors request they be required to do so pursuant to the following procedures (the “Adequate
Assurance Procedures”):
a. The Debtors will serve a copy of this motion and the order granting the relief requested herein to each Utility Provider identified on Exhibit C within two business days after entry of the order by the Court.
b. Subject to paragraphs (f)–(j) herein, the Debtors will deposit the Adequate Assurance Deposit, in the aggregate amount of $75,000, in the Adequate Assurance Account within five business days after entry of the Interim Order.
c. Each Utility Provider shall be entitled to the funds in the Adequate Assurance Account in the amount set forth for such Utility Provider in the column labeled “Proposed Adequate Assurance” on the Utility Providers List.
d. If an amount relating to Utility Services provided postpetition by a Utility Provider is unpaid, and remains unpaid beyond any applicable grace period, such Utility Provider may request a disbursement from the Adequate Assurance Account by giving notice to: (i) the Debtors, Z Gallerie, LLC, 1855 W. 139th St., Gardena, California 90249 Attn: Mark Weinsten ([email protected]), (ii) proposed counsel to the Debtors, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, 601 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10022, Attn: Emily K. S. Kehoe ([email protected]) and 300 North LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60654, Attn: Justin Bernbrock

([email protected]) and Joshua Altman ([email protected]); (iii) proposed co-counsel to the Debtors, Klehr Harrison Harvey Branzburg LLP, 919 N. Market Street, Suite 1000, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, Attn; Domenic E. Pacitti ([email protected]) and Michael W. Yurkewicz ([email protected]); (iv) counsel to the DIP Agent, Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC, 919 North Market Street, Suite 1500, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, Attn: Mary F. Caloway; (v) counsel to any statutory committee appointed in these cases; and (vi) the Office of The United States Trustee, 844 King Street, Suite 2207, Lockbox 35, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, Attn: Jacklyn Weissgerber ([email protected]); and (vii) to the extent not listed herein, those parties requesting notice pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002 (collectively, the “Notice Parties”). The Debtors shall honor such request within five business days after the date the request is received by the Debtors, subject to the ability of the Debtors and any such requesting Utility Provider to resolve any dispute regarding such request without further order of the Court. To the extent a Utility Provider receives a disbursement from the Adequate Assurance Account, the Debtors shall replenish the Adequate Assurance Account in the amount disbursed.
e. The portion of the Adequate Assurance Deposit attributable to each Utility Provider will be returned to the Debtors on the earlier of (i) reconciliation and payment by the Debtors of the Utility Provider’s final invoice in accordance with applicable non-bankruptcy law following the Debtors’ termination of Utility Services from such Utility Provider and (ii) the effective date of any chapter 11 plan confirmed in these chapter 11 cases.
f. Any Utility Provider desiring additional assurances of payment in the form of deposits, prepayments, or otherwise must serve a request for additional assurance (an “Additional Assurance Request”) on the Notice Parties.
g. Any Utility Provider that objects to the Debtors’ Proposed Adequate Assurance must serve an Additional Assurance Request on the Notice Parties.
h. Any Additional Assurance Request must: (i) be in writing, (ii) identify the location for which the Utility Services are provided, (iii) summarize the Debtors’ payment history relevant to the affected account(s), (iv) certify the amount that is equal to one-half the monthly cost of the Utility Services the Utility Provider supplies to the Debtors, calculated as a historical average over the twelve-month period ending February 28, 2019, (v) certify that the Utility Provider does not already hold a deposit equal to or greater than one-half the monthly cost of Utility Services, (vii) provide evidence that the Debtors have a direct obligation to the Utility Provider, and (viii) explain why the Utility Provider believes the
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 7 of 17
8 PHIL1 7689033v.1
Proposed Adequate Assurance is not sufficient adequate assurance of future payment.
i. Any Additional Assurance Request may be made at any time. If a Utility Provider fails to file and serve an Additional Assurance Request, the Utility Provider shall be (i) deemed to have received “satisfactory” adequate assurance of payment in compliance with section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) forbidden from discontinuing, altering, or refusing Utility Services to, or discriminating against, the Debtors on account of any unpaid prepetition charges, or requiring additional assurance of payment other than the Proposed Adequate Assurance.
j. Upon the Debtors’ receipt of an Additional Assurance Request, the Debtors shall have 21 days from the receipt of the Additional Assurance Request (the “Resolution Period”) to negotiate with the Utility Provider to resolve the Utility Provider’s Additional Assurance Request.
k. Without further order of the Court, the Debtors may enter into agreements granting additional adequate assurance to a Utility Provider serving an Additional Assurance Request if the Debtors determine, in consultation with counsel to DIP Agent, that the Additional Assurance Request is reasonable.
l. If the Debtors determine, in their business judgment and in consultation with counsel to the DIP Agent, that the Additional Assurance Request is not reasonable and the Debtors are unable to reach an alternative resolution with the Utility Provider, the Debtors, during or immediately after the Resolution Period, will request a hearing (a “Determination Hearing”) before the Court to determine the adequacy of assurance of payment with respect to that Utility Provider pursuant to section 366(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.
m. Pending resolution of such dispute at a Determination Hearing, the relevant Utility Provider shall be prohibited from altering, refusing, or discontinuing service to the Debtors on account of: (i) unpaid charges for prepetition services; (ii) a pending Additional Assurance Request; or (iii) any objections filed in response to the Proposed Adequate Assurance.
n. The Adequate Assurance Deposit deposited into the Adequate Assurance Account on behalf of any Utility Provider (including any additional amount deposited upon request of any applicable Utility Provider), or any portion thereof, shall be returned to the Debtors, less any amounts owed on account of unpaid, postpetition Utility Services, by no later than five business days following the earlier of the date upon which (i) a chapter 11 plan becomes effective after being confirmed in these chapter 11 cases or (ii) the Debtors provide notice to a Utility Provider that services provided
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 8 of 17
9 PHIL1 7689033v.1
to the Debtors by such Utility Provider will no longer be needed or will be reduced.
14. The Adequate Assurance Procedures set forth a streamlined process for Utility
Providers to address potential concerns with respect to the Proposed Adequate Assurance, while
at the same time allowing the Debtors to administer their chapter 11 estates uninterrupted. More
specifically, the Adequate Assurance Procedures permit a Utility Provider to object to the
Proposed Adequate Assurance by serving an Additional Assurance Request upon certain notice
parties. The Debtors, in their discretion, may then resolve any Additional Assurance Request by
mutual agreement with the Utility Provider and without further order of the Court. If the
Additional Assurance Request cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, the Debtors may seek
Court resolution of the Additional Assurance Request.
15. Absent compliance with the Adequate Assurance Procedures, the Debtors request
that the Utility Providers, including subsequently added Utility Providers, be forbidden from
altering, refusing, or discontinuing service or requiring additional assurance of payment other
than the Proposed Adequate Assurance, pending entry of a final order approving the relief
requested herein.
16. The relief requested herein is for all Utility Providers providing Utility Services to
the Debtors and is not limited to those parties or entities listed on the Utility Services List.
II. Subsequently Identified Utility Providers.
17. To the extent the Debtors identify new or additional Utility Providers or
discontinue services from existing Utility Providers, the Debtors seek authority to add or remove
parties from the Utility Services List. For any Utility Provider that is subsequently added to the
Utility Services List, the Debtors will serve such Utility Provider with a copy of the Court’s
order regarding Utility Services, including the Adequate Assurance Procedures, and increase the
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 9 of 17
10 PHIL1 7689033v.1
Adequate Assurance Deposit by an amount equal to approximately one-half of the Debtors’
average cost of services from the subsequently added Utility Provider, net of any prepetition
deposits, letters of credit, or surety bonds already provided to the Utility Provider in the ordinary
course of business. The Debtors request that the terms of such Utility Services order and the
Adequate Assurance Procedures apply to any subsequently identified Utility Provider to the
same extent as if the Utility Provider was listed on the original Utility Providers List attached
hereto. For any Utility Provider that is subsequently removed from the Utility Providers List, the
Debtors request the authority to decrease the Adequate Assurance Deposit by an amount equal to
approximately one-half of the Debtors’ average cost of services from such removed Utility
Provider.
Basis for Relief
18. Section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code protects a debtor against the immediate
termination or alteration of utility services after the Petition Date. See 11 U.S.C. § 366.
Section 366(c) requires the debtor to provide “adequate assurance” of payment for postpetition
services in a form “satisfactory” to the utility provider within thirty days of the Petition Date, or
the utility provider may alter, refuse, or discontinue service. 11 U.S.C. § 366(c)(2).
Section 366(c)(1) enumerates what constitutes “assurance of payment.” 11 U.S.C. § 366(c)(1).
Although assurance of payment must be “adequate,” it need not constitute an absolute guarantee
of the debtors’ ability to pay. See, e.g., In re Great Atl. & Pac. Tea Co., No. 11-CV-1338,
2011 WL 5546954, at *5 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Nov. 14, 2011) (finding that “[c]ourts will approve
an amount that is adequate enough to insure against unreasonable risk of nonpayment, but are not
required to give the equivalent of a guaranty of payment in full”); In re Caldor, Inc., 199 B.R. 1,
3 (S.D.N.Y. 1996) (“Section 366(b) requires . . . adequate assurance of payment. The statute
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 10 of 17
11 PHIL1 7689033v.1
does not require an absolute guarantee of payment.” (internal quotation and citation omitted)),
aff’d sub nom. Va. Elec. & Power Co. v. Caldor, Inc., 117 F.3d 646 (2d Cir. 1997).
19. When considering whether a given assurance of payment is “adequate,” the Court
should examine the totality of the circumstances to make an informed decision as to whether the
Utility Provider will be subject to an unreasonable risk of nonpayment. See Mass. Elec. Co. v.
Keydata Corp. (In re Keydata Corp.), 12 B.R. 156, 158 (B.A.P. 1st Cir. 1981) (citing In re
Cunha, 1 B.R. 330 (Bankr. E.D. Va. 1979)); In re Adelphia Bus. Solutions, Inc., 280 B.R. 63,
82–83 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2002). Courts have recognized that, in determining the requisite level
of adequate assurance, “a bankruptcy court must focus upon the need of the utility for assurance,
and . . . require that the debtor supply no more than that, since the debtor almost perforce has a
conflicting need to conserve scarce financial resources.” Va. Elec. & Power Co., 117 F.3d at 650
(internal quotations omitted) (citing In re Penn Jersey Corp., 72 B.R. 981, 985 (Bankr. E.D. Pa.
1987)); see also In re Penn. Cent. Transp. Co., 467 F.2d 100, 103–04 (3d Cir. 1972) (affirming
bankruptcy court’s ruling that no utility deposits were necessary where such deposits likely
would “jeopardize the continuing operation of the [debtor] merely to give further security to
suppliers who already are reasonably protected”). Accordingly, demands by a Utility Provider
for a guarantee of payment should be refused when the Debtors’ specific circumstances already
afford adequate assurance of payment.
20. Here, the Utility Providers are adequately assured against any risk of nonpayment
for future services. The Adequate Assurance Deposit and the Debtors’ ongoing ability to meet
obligations as they come due in the ordinary course provides assurance of the Debtors’ payment
of their future obligations. Moreover, termination of any Utility Services could result in the
Debtors’ inability to operate their business to the detriment of all stakeholders. Cf. In re Monroe
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 11 of 17
12 PHIL1 7689033v.1
Well Serv., Inc., 83 B.R. 317, 321–22 (Bankr. E.D. Pa. 1988) (noting that without utility service,
the debtors “would have to cease operations” and that section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code “was
intended to limit the leverage held by utility companies, not increase it”).
21. Courts are permitted to fashion reasonable procedures, such as the Adequate
Assurance Procedures proposed herein, to implement the protections afforded under section 366
of the Bankruptcy Code. See, e.g., In re Circuit City Stores Inc., No. 08-35653, 2009 WL
484553, at *5 (Bankr. E.D. Va. Jan. 14, 2009) (“The plain language of § 366 of the Bankruptcy
Code allows the court to adopt the Procedures set forth in the Utility Order.”). Such procedures
are important because, without them, the Debtors “could be forced to address numerous requests
by utility companies in an unorganized manner at a critical period in their efforts to reorganize.”
Id. Here, notwithstanding a determination that the Debtors’ Proposed Adequate Assurance
constitutes sufficient adequate assurance, any rights the Utility Providers believe they have under
sections 366(b) and 366(c)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code are wholly preserved under the Adequate
Assurance Procedures. See id. at *5–6. The Utility Providers still may choose, in accordance
with the Adequate Assurance Procedures, to request modification of the Proposed Adequate
Assurance. See id. at *6. The Adequate Assurance Procedures, however, avoid a disorganized
process whereby each Utility Provider could make a last-minute demand for adequate assurance
that would force the Debtors to pay under the threat of losing critical Utility Services. See id. at
*5.
22. Because the Adequate Assurance Procedures are reasonable and in accord with
the purposes of section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Court should grant the relief requested
herein. Similar procedures have been approved by courts in this district. See, e.g., In re ATD
Corp., Case No. 18-12221 (KJC) (Bankr D. Del. Oct. 26, 2018) (approving adequate assurance
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 12 of 17
13 PHIL1 7689033v.1
deposit equal to one-half of debtor’s average monthly utility expenses); In re TK Holdings Inc.,
No. 17-11375 (BLS) (Bankr. D. Del. Jul. 26, 2017) (same); In re Tidewater Inc., No. 17-11132
(BLS) (Bankr. D. Del. Jun. 13, 2017) (same); In re CST Indus. Holding Inc., No. 17-11292
(BLS) (Bankr. D. Del. Jun. 13, 2017) (same); In re Dex Media, Inc., No. 16-11200 (KG) (Bankr.
D. Del. May 16, 2016) (same); In re Emerald Oil, Inc., No. 16-10704 (KG) (Bankr. D. Del. Mar.
23, 2016) (same).7
23. Further, the Court possesses the power, under section 105(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code, to “issue any order, process, or judgment that is necessary or appropriate to carry out the
provisions of this title.” 11 U.S.C. § 105(a). The Adequate Assurance Procedures and the
Proposed Adequate Assurance are necessary and appropriate to carry out the provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, particularly section 366. Accordingly, the Court should exercise its powers
under sections 366 and 105(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and approve both the Adequate
Assurance Procedures and the Proposed Adequate Assurance.
Processing of Checks and Electronic Fund Transfers Should Be Authorized
24. The Debtors have sufficient funds to pay the amounts described in this motion in
the ordinary course of business by virtue of expected cash flows from ongoing business
operations, the proposed debtor-in-possession financing, and anticipated access to cash
collateral. Under the Debtors’ existing cash management system, the Debtors have made
arrangements to readily identify checks or wire transfer requests relating to authorized payments
in respect of Utility Services, as applicable. Accordingly, the Debtors believe that checks or wire
transfer requests that are not related to authorized payments will not be honored inadvertently.
Therefore, the Debtors respectfully request that the Court authorize all applicable financial 7 Because of the voluminous nature of the orders cited herein, such orders have not been attached to this motion.
Copies of these orders are available upon request of the Debtors’ proposed counsel.
Case 19-10488 Doc 9 Filed 03/11/19 Page 13 of 17
14 PHIL1 7689033v.1
institutions, when requested by the Debtors, to receive, process, honor, and pay any and all
checks or wire transfer requests in respect of the relief requested in this motion.
The Requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 6003 Are Satisfied
25. Bankruptcy Rule 6003 empowers a court to grant relief within the first 21 days
after the Petition Date “to the extent that relief is necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable
harm.” Fed. R. Bankr. P. 6003. For the reasons discussed above, authorizing the Debtors to
deposit the Proposed Adequate Assurance and utilize the Adequate Assurance Procedures, to
remit fees to ENGIE for services performed, and granting the other relief requested herein is
integral to the Debtors’ ability to transition their operations into these chapter 11 cases smoothly.
Failure to receive such authorization and other relief during the first 21 days of these chapter 11
cases would severely disrupt the Debtors’ operations at this critical juncture. For the reasons
discussed herein, the relief requested is necessary in order for the Debtors to operate their
business in the ordinary course, preserve the going concern value of the Debtors’ operations, and
maximize the value of their estates for the benefit of all stakeholders. Accordingly, the Debtors
submit that they have satisfied the “immediate and irreparable harm” standard of Bankruptcy
Rule 6003 to support granting the relief requested herein.
Reservation of Rights
26. Nothing contained in this motion or any actions taken by the Debtors pursuant to
relief granted in the Interim Order and Final Order is intended or should be construed as: (a) an
admission as to the validity, priority, or amount of any particular claim against a Debtor entity;
(b) a waiver of the Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s rights to dispute any particular claim
on any grounds; (c) a promise or requirement to pay any particular claim; (d) an implication or

To the extent a Utility Provider receives a disbursement from the Adequate Assurance Account, the Debtors shall replenish the Adequate Assurance Account in the amount disbursed.
e. The portion of the Adequate Assurance Deposit attributable to each Utility Provider will be returned to the Debtors on the earlier of (i) reconciliation and payment by the Debtors of the Utility Provider’s final invoice in accordance with applicable nonbankruptcy law following the Debtors’ termination of Utility Services from such Utility Provider and (ii) the effective date of any chapter 11 plan confirmed in these chapter 11 cases.

i. Any Additional Assurance Request may be made at any time. If a Utility Provider fails to file and serve an Additional Assurance Request, the Utility Provider shall be (i) deemed to have received “satisfactory” adequate assurance of payment in compliance with section 366 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) forbidden from discontinuing, altering, or refusing Utility Services to, or discriminating against, the Debtors on account of any unpaid prepetition charges, or requiring additional assurance of payment other than the Proposed Adequate Assurance.
j. Upon the Debtors’ receipt of an Additional Assurance Request, the Debtors shall have 21 days from the receipt of the Additional Assurance Request (the “Resolution Period”) to negotiate with the Utility Provider to resolve the Utility Provider’s Additional Assurance Request.
k. Without further order of the Court, the Debtors may enter into agreements granting additional adequate assurance to a Utility Provider serving an Additional Assurance Request if the Debtors determine, in consultation with counsel to the DIP Agent, that the Additional Assurance Request is reasonable.

to ENGIE.
8. Any landlord that pays directly for Utility Services for the benefit of the Debtors
pursuant to a nonresidential real property lease must continue paying for such Utility Services in
the ordinary course of business and may not cease, reduce, delay, or otherwise interfere with the
payment or delivery of such Utility Services, regardless of any nonpayment, deferral, or waiver
of rent, or any defaults with respect to the applicable lease; provided that a landlord may cease
payments on account of Utility Services following the effective date of the rejection of the
applicable lease pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, if any.
9. Upon the closure of one of the Debtors’ locations and the discontinuance of the
Utility Services associated therewith, or the termination of Utility Services independent thereof,
the Debtors may, in their discretion and without further order of this Court, reduce the Adequate
Assurance Deposit by an amount not exceeding, for each of the Utility Services being
discontinued, the lesser of (i) the estimated two-week utility expense for such Utility Services
and (ii) the amount of the Adequate Assurance Deposit then attributable to the applicable Utility
Provider; provided that for any Utility Provider for which the Adequate Assurance Deposit is
reduced, the Debtors shall have (i) provided such Utility Provider with fourteen (14) days’ notice

of such reduction and (ii) paid such Utility Provider in full for any outstanding postpetition
Utility Services before reducing the Adequate Assurance Deposit.

pursuant to such relief, nothing in this Interim Order shall be deemed: (a) an admission as to the
validity, priority, or amount of any particular claim against a Debtor entity; (b) a waiver of the
Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s right to dispute any particular claim on any grounds;
(c) a promise or requirement to pay any particular claim; (d) an implication or admission that any
particular claim is of a type specified or defined in this Interim Order or the Motion; (e) a request
or authorization to assume any agreement, contract, or lease pursuant to section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code; (f) a waiver or limitation of the Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s rights
under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law; or (g) a concession by the Debtors or
any other party-in-interest that any liens (contractual, common law, statutory, or otherwise)
satisfied pursuant to this Interim Order are valid and the Debtors and all other parties-in-interest
expressly reserve their rights to contest the extent, validity, or perfection or to seek avoidance of
all such liens. Any payment made pursuant to this Interim Order should not be construed as an
admission as to the validity, priority, or amount of any particular claim or a waiver of the
Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s rights to subsequently dispute such claim.
11. The contents of the Motion satisfy the requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 6003(b).
12. Notice of the Motion as provided therein shall be deemed good and sufficient
notice of such Motion and the requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 6004(a) and the Local Rules are

Interim Order are immediately effective and enforceable upon its entry.

The Adequate Assurance Deposit deposited into the Adequate Assurance Account on behalf of any Utility Provider (including any additional amount deposited upon request of any applicable Utility Provider), or any portion thereof, shall be returned to the Debtors, less any amounts owed on account of unpaid, postpetition Utility Services, by no later than five business days following the earlier of the date upon which (i) a chapter 11 plan becomes effective after being confirmed in these chapter 11 cases or (ii) the Debtors provide notice to a Utility Provider that services provided to the Debtors by such Utility Provider will no longer be needed or will be reduced.
4. The Utility Providers are prohibited from requiring additional adequate assurance
of payment other than pursuant to the Adequate Assurance Procedures.
5. The Debtors will cause a copy of this Final Order, including the Adequate
Assurance Procedures, to be served on any subsequently identified Utility Provider and any such
Utility Provider shall be bound by the Adequate Assurance Procedures.
6. The Debtors are authorized, but not directed, to honor their prepetition obligations
to ENGIE.
7. Any landlord that pays directly for Utility Services for the benefit of the Debtors
pursuant to a nonresidential real property lease must continue paying for such Utility Services in
the ordinary course of business and may not cease, reduce, delay, or otherwise interfere with the
payment or delivery of such Utility Services, regardless of any nonpayment, deferral, or waiver
of rent, or any defaults with respect to the applicable lease; provided that a landlord may cease
payments on account of Utility Services following the effective date of the rejection of the
applicable lease pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, if any.

8. Upon the closure of one of the Debtors’ locations and the discontinuance of the
Utility Services associated therewith, or the termination of Utility Services independent thereof,
the Debtors may, in their discretion and without further order of this Court, reduce the Adequate
Assurance Deposit by an amount not exceeding, for each of the Utility Services being
discontinued, the lesser of (i) the estimated two-week utility expense for such Utility Services
and (ii) the amount of the Adequate Assurance Deposit then attributable to the applicable Utility
Provider; provided that for any Utility Provider for which the Adequate Assurance Deposit is
reduced, the Debtors shall have (i) provided such Utility Provider with fourteen (14) days’ notice
of such reduction and (ii) paid such Utility Provider in full for any outstanding postpetition
Utility Services before reducing the Adequate Assurance Deposit.
9. Notwithstanding the relief granted in this Final Order and any actions taken
pursuant to such relief, nothing in this Final Order shall be deemed: (a) an admission as to the
validity, priority, or amount of any particular claim against a Debtor entity; (b) a waiver of the
Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s right to dispute any particular claim on any grounds; (c)
a promise or requirement to pay any particular claim; (d) an implication or admission that any
particular claim is of a type specified or defined in this Final Order or the Motion; (e) a request
or authorization to assume any agreement, contract, or lease pursuant to section 365 of the
Bankruptcy Code; (f) a waiver or limitation of the Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s rights
under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable law; or (g) a concession by the Debtors or
any other party-in-interest that any liens (contractual, common law, statutory, or otherwise)
satisfied pursuant to this Final Order are valid and the Debtors and all other parties-in-interest
expressly reserve their rights to contest the extent, validity, or perfection or to seek avoidance of
all such liens. Any payment made pursuant to this Final Order should not be construed as an
Case 19-10488 Doc 9-2 Filed 03/11/19 Page 7 of 8
7 PHIL1 7689033v.1
admission as to the validity, priority, or amount of any particular claim or a waiver of the
Debtors’ or any other party-in-interest’s rights to subsequently dispute such claim.
10. The contents of the Motion satisfy the requirements of Bankruptcy Rule 6003(b)
