Employees Retirement System of the Government of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (“ERS”), 

the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (“PREPA”), and the Puerto Rico Public Buildings Authority 

(“PBA,” and together with the Commonwealth, HTA, ERS, and PREPA, the “Debtors”) to resolve 

general unsecured claims using the procedures approved by the court in the ADR Order [ECF No. 

12576-1] (the “ADR Procedures”).

2. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the ADR Order, the Debtors have 

filed twenty-eight notices transferring claims into the ADR Procedures (as defined in the ADR Order),
