(collectively, the “Bonds”) issued by the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (“PREPA”) under 

a trust agreement between PREPA and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee, dated 

January 1, 1974, as amended and supplemented, in connection with the case (“PREPA Title III 

Case”) commenced by the above-captioned debtor on July 2, 2017 under Title III of PROMESA.

In support of the Fourth Supplemental Statement, the Ad Hoc Group respectfully

1. As of the date of this Fourth Supplemental Statement, in this Title III Case, 

the undersigned represent the Ad Hoc Group (each holder in the PREPA Ad Hoc Group, a

2. On or about June 26 and June 27, 2014, certain funds managed or advised 

by OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (“Oppenheimer”) and Franklin Advisers, Inc. (“Franklin”) retained 

Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP (“Kramer Levin”) to challenge as unconstitutional the 

recently passed and soon to be enacted Puerto Rico Debt Enforcement and Recovery Act. Over 

the course of the next two months, certain holders of Bonds, including Franklin and Oppenheimer, 

contacted and then engaged Kramer Levin to represent a group of holders in connection with a 

potential restructuring of the Bonds. From time to time thereafter, certain additional holders of 

the Bonds have joined the Ad Hoc Group.

3. On August 2, 2017, counsel to the Ad Hoc Group submitted the Verified

Statement of the Ad Hoc Group of PREPA Bondholders Pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2019 [Case 

No. 17-4780, Dkt. No. 633]. On August 15, 2018, counsel to the Ad Hoc Group submitted 

corrected versions of the Verified Statement, the Second Supplemental Verified Statement and the
