From 2019 to July 2021, we advised Muddy Waters LLC in its short-selling and activist campaign against Solutions 30, whose management is suspected of engaging in illegal activities. We subsequently provided ongoing legal counsel to MWC regarding Solutions 30's activities and MWC's strategy while the fund maintained its short position. In 2018-2020, we also advised several short-selling funds, including MWC, in their strategy vis-à-vis Casino.
