A hearing is scheduled for December 8, 2025. The purpose of the hearing is to seek consolidation of two related actions, the Investor Action and the OKR Action, into a single proceeding, or alternatively, to have them tried together.
Both actions involve common parties, overlapping legal issues, and the similar factual background. They concern alleged misconduct by OKR Entities leadership, including misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, conspiracy, and misuse of investor funds.
Consolidation is intended to improve efficiency, reduce costs, avoid duplication and ensure any recovery obtained is for the benefit of all investors.

Notification re investor claims
Following the launch of the Investor Claims Process on October 28, 2025, the Monitor has investigated a number of low value discrepancies identified by investors. As a result of these investigations, the Monitor has identified a classification error in the system that has led to an understatement of certain investors' claims to a maximum value of $4.00.
The cause of the difference relates to the reinvested distributions through the DRIP program, whereby additional units were distributed at round sum dollar amounts, causing a rounding discrepancy. Any cents amounts to be distributed were recorded in the Company's system as cash distributions with no cash being actually being distributed. Such amounts have subsequently been incorrectly deducted from investor claims as cash distributions. The maximum adjustment for each instance of this error is less than $1.00 and the maximum cumulative adjustment is less than $4.00.
Provided that you consider that the relevant adjustment to your claim is less than $4.00, no additional action is required on your part, and you do not need to submit a Notice of Dispute regarding this matter. We have worked with the Companies to rectify this issue and updated the Investor Claims record for all affected investors.
If you consider that you have a larger differential, you will need to submit a Notice of Dispute by the Claims Bar Date at 5:00pm PST on December 12, 2025.
The Claims Process has now commenced. A copy of the Claims Process Order is available under the Court Orders tab. The Consolidated Entities that are part of the Claims Process are listed below:
The Venture Fund Entities are excluded from the Claims Process.
Each investor has been sent a notice outlining their claim based on the books and records of OKR’s Entities.
If you agree with the amount and classification shown in your notice, no further action is required. Your claim will be accepted as stated in the notice.
If you disagree with the amount or classification of your claim as presented in the notice, you must submit a Notice of Dispute of Investor Claim to the Monitor by the Claims Bar Date: Friday, December 12, 2025, by 5 PM PST.
Your Notice of Dispute of Investor Claim should:
Please email the completed form and all supporting documents to: ca_okr_group@pwc.com
If you do not submit a Notice of Dispute of Investor Claim by the Claims Bar Date, the amount in your notice will be deemed final and constitute your Proven Claim. Any remaining balance will be forever barred and extinguished.
