Sloan, Esquire Abrams & Bayliss LLP Ballard Spahr LLP Montchanin Road, Suite 200 919 North Market Street, 11th Floor Wilmington, DE 19807 Wilmington, DE 19801 Raymond J. DiCamillo, Esquire Albert H. Manwaring, IV, Esquire Daniel Kaprow, Esquire Albert J. Carroll, Esquire Megan E. O’Connor, Esquire Morris James LLP Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A. 500 Delaware Avenue, Suite 1500 North King Street Wilmington, DE 19801 Wilmington, DE 19801 Re: Joint Stock Company Commercial Bank PrivatBank v. Kolomoisky, et al.

C.A. No. 2019-0377-JRS Dear Counsel: I have reviewed Plaintiff’s Motion for Reargument (D.I. 169) relating to the Court’s decision, dated November 19, 2020, to grant Defendants’ Motion to Bifurcate Briefing on Motions to Dismiss and Stay Jurisdictional Discovery (D.I. 164, 167). After carefully reviewing the matter, I remained convinced that the sequencing of briefing the pending motions, and the stay of jurisdictional discovery, Joint Stock Company Commercial Bank PrivatBank v. Kolomoisky, et al.

C.A. No. 2019-0377-JRS December 29, 2020 Page 2

as laid out in the Court’s November 19th Order, is the most efficient and appropriate means by which to address the motions, particularly given the likely scope of jurisdictional discovery implicated by the Plaintiff’s proffered theory of personal jurisdiction.

As I am not satisfied the Court has “overlooked a controlling decision or principle of law that would have controlling effect, or [] has misapprehended the law or the facts so that the outcome of the decision would be different,” I cannot conclude that the Motion for Reargument has stated valid bases for relief.1 Accordingly, the Motion is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Very truly yours, /s/ Joseph R. Slights III
