1 UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS HOUSTON DIVISION IN RE: Case No (MI) BLACK ELK ENERGY OFFSHORE (Chapter 11) OPERATIONS, LLC Debtor SUPPLEMENTAL VERIFIED STATEMENT OF JIMMY D. PARRISH REGARDING ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES OF BAKER & HOSTETLER LLP I, JIMMY D. PARRISH, in accordance with Rule 2014 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, make the following verified statements under penalty of perjury in order to supplement the disclosures contained in the Verified Statement of Elizabeth A. Green in Support of Application to Employ Baker & Hostetler LLP, as Counsel for the Debtor-In- Possession, Nunc Pro Tunc to the Conversion Date filed on September 30, 2015 [Dt. No ]: 1. In connection with preparing the Application to Employ Baker & Hostetler, LLP ( B&H ) as counsel for the Debtor, B&H filed the Rule 2014 Declaration of Elizabeth Green ( B&H Disclosure ) which disclosed that B&H represented the Debtor prior to the Petition Date: (i) as litigation counsel in approximately twenty (20) vendor lawsuits; and (ii) in connection with providing an opinion letter regarding whether the conditions for a sale of assets under the indenture and supplements to the indenture had been met with respect to a sale of assets to Renaissance in August In addition to the B&H Disclosures, B&H also had multiple conversations and provided additional documents to the Committee s professionals regarding the work performed by B&H prior to the Petition Date

2 3. In connection with the B&H Disclosure, B&H s bankruptcy attorneys ran a conflict check on its electronic conflict system, which includes B&H s current client data base. B&H s conflict search included vendors, secured creditors, and equity security holders of the Debtor. 4. B&H s bankruptcy attorneys also consulted with the billing attorney for the Black Elk matters, as well as the supervising attorney. In addition, B&H s bankruptcy attorneys reviewed billings on the Black Elk pre-petition matters. 5. On January 13, 2015, the Debtor s CRO contacted B&H after learning of an allegation from the Debtor s former CEO, John Hoffman, that B&H s disclosures were deficient. 6. Upon learning of this allegation from the CRO, B&H conducted additional due diligence with the billing and supervising partner and confirmed B&H did perform additional limited corporate work for the Debtor prior to the Petition Date. Specifically, B&H assisted the Debtor in the review and preparation of certain periodic reports required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ), including those on Forms 8-K, 10-Q, and 10-K. 7. B&H prepared an opinion letter to the Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as required under the Debtor s indenture and helped prepare board consents and officer s certificates required under the indenture in connection with the sale of certain assets to Fieldwood Energy, LLC in March of B&H did not provide any assistance with the negotiation of the disposition or the transaction documents related to this asset sale. 8. B&H represented the Debtor in connection with negotiations with counsel retained by a group of noteholders alleging potential defaults under the indenture associated with the senior secured notes which resulted in the noteholders withdrawing their default notice. 9. B&H drafted an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement along with officer s certificates, board consents and press release associated with a July 2014 tender offer by the Debtor to purchase $150 million of outstanding senior secured notes that were due in

3 B&H had no involvement in the receipt and computation of the votes in connection with the solicitation. 10. B&H previously disclosed in the B&H Disclosure that it prepared an opinion letter regarding whether the conditions for a sale of assets under the indenture and supplements to the indenture had been met with respect to a sale of assets to Renaissance in August B&H also assisted in preparing the officer s certificates and board consents required under the indenture and prepared a press release in connection with this transaction. As stated in the B&H Disclosure, B&H did not provide any assistance with the negotiation of the disposition or the transaction documents in connection with such sale. 11. B&H reviewed and commented on the Second Supplemental Indenture entered into by the Debtor in August of 2014 and issued an opinion letter to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., and helped prepare the related officer s certificates, board consents, press release and 8-K. 12. B&H was retained by the Debtor to issue a legal opinion required to be issued under the Debtor s indenture in connection with a sale of certain assets to Northstar Offshore Group, LLC in January B&H provided initial drafts of an opinion along with the associated officer s certificates and board consents to the Debtor, but did not issue a legal opinion and was not involved with the negotiation of the disposition or any transaction documents. 13. Because of its role in preparing certain periodic reports for the SEC, including the 10-K, B&H was aware of the August 2013 assignment of the Debtor s credit facility to Resource Value Group, but had no direct involvement in the transaction. 14. As stated in the B&H Disclosure, B&H has never represented Platinum, its principals or any of its affiliates (outside of the Debtor). Moreover, B&H was not retained and

4 did not advise the Debtor in connection with the conversion of Platinum s conversion of equity to debt. 15. As stated above, B&H did draft an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement along with officer s certificates, board consents and press release associated with a July 2014 tender offer by the Debtor to purchase $150 million of outstanding senior secured notes that were due in 2015 and reviewed and commented on the Second Supplement Indenture entered into by the Debtor in August of 2014, but was not retained by the Debtor in connection with the distribution of proceeds of the Renaissance transaction. 16. B&H understands the importance of disclosure under Rule B&H believed at the time made that its initial disclosures gave a complete and full disclosure, but recognizes that a communication breakdown between BH s bankruptcy attorneys (who have only been involved with the Debtor since the filing of the Involuntary Petition) and B&H s corporate attorneys occurred and supplemental disclosure was needed. 17. Despite the additional representation of the Debtor pre-petition as disclosed in this Motion, B&H believes it is still disinterested in accordance with Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code in connection with serving as the Debtor s counsel in the main case. 18. B&H proposes that special counsel can be retained to investigate and pursue any transactions that B&H is unable to investigate and pursue because of its relationship with the Debtor. 19. B&H s lead attorney for the Debtor, Elizabeth Green, has been out of the country since Sunday, January 10, 2015 on a trip to Antarctica, but has been in telephonic and contact with B&H and the Debtor. Notwithstanding Ms. Green s absence and limited availability, B&H has taken every effort to address the issues related to its additional disclosures and file this supplement as promptly as possible
