`
`from the bankruptcy court before commencing any such action in the Bankruptcy Court. The
`
`standard for asserting such claims will be the "colorable claim" standard set forth in the Third
`
`Circuit's Cybergenics case, 330 F.3d 548, provided, however, that only the Trustee shall have
`
`standing to object. With respect to the UBS Claim, the Creditor Group may pursue such non-
`
`scheduled claims without following the procedure described above, provided that the relief
`
`requested in such action will not result in the Debtor and/or the Estate or the Trustee being re-
`
`installed as a general partner of any of the Pursuit Funds, other than for the limited purpose of
`
`collecting funds it is due, including without limitation any incentive fee or carried interest. If the
`
`proposed action requests such relief, then the Creditor Group shall follow the procedure for non-
`
`scheduled claims; and it is further
`
`ORDERED, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, all rights,
`
`claims and defenses that may be raised or asserted by the Pursuit Parties with respect to the UBS
`
`Litigation, the UBS Claim,
`
`the Debtor’s Claims,
`
`the Insider Avoidance Claims and/or the
`
`Indemnification Claims,
`
`including, without
`
`limitation, any right
`
`to challenge standing or
`
`jurisdiction, are expressly reserved and preserved; and it is further
`
`ORDERED,
`
`that nothing in this Order finds that any party prosecuting any claims
`
`assigned under the Agreement is exempt from filing employment and fee applications in these
`
`cases, or required to file employment and fee applications in these cases, which issues are not yet
`
`ripe; accordingly, all parties’ rights with respect to those issues and/or requirements (if any) are
`hereby reserved.
