7/8/2025 Doc. 358: GLOBAL NOTES AND STATEMENTS OF LIMITATIONS, METHODOLOGY,
AND DISCLAIMERS REGARDING THE DEBTORS’ SCHEDULES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AND STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL AFFAIRS
I took screenshots and posted excerpts from this 71-page document along with my comments.
I could not find meaningful information about Sunnova’s customer accounts and have questions about CEO “William J. Berger” — is that Sunnova Founder and CEO “John Berger?”
Trying to protect the guilty?
I will try to update as time permits.
Disclaimers limiting liability #
A few excerpts
Page 2:
In no event shall the Debtors or their directors, managers, officers, agents, attorneys, and financial advisors be liable to any third party for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages (including, but not limited to, damages arising from the disallowance of a potential claim against the Debtors or damages to business reputation, lost business, or lost profits), whether foreseeable or not and however caused, even if the Debtors or their directors, managers, officers, agents, attorneys, and financial advisors are advised of the possibility of such damages.
The Schedules and Statements have been signed by Ryan Omohundro, Chief Restructuring Officer and Authorized Signatory of the Debtors and an authorized signatory for each of the Debtors. Mr. Omohundro has reviewed and verified all of the Schedules and Statements. In reviewing the Schedules and Statements, Mr. Omohundro has relied upon the efforts, statements, advice, and representations of personnel of the Debtors and the Debtors’ advisors and other professionals. Given the scale of the Debtors’ business, Mr. Omohundro has not (and practically could not have) personally verified the accuracy of each statement and representation in the Schedules and Statements, including, but not limited to, statements and representations concerning amounts owed to creditors, classification of such amounts, and creditor addresses.
This is how you legally lie, cheat, deceive, defraud and steal with impunity.
Hire someone who knows NOTHING to sign the legal documents based on information provided by unidentified employees.
P. 10:
k. Accounts Receivable. The accounts receivable information listed on the Schedules includes receivables from the Debtors’ customers and is calculated net of any amounts that, as of the Petition Date, may be owed to such customers in the form of offsets or other price adjustments pursuant to the Debtors’ customer program policies, day-to-day operating policies, and any applicable Court order.
I searched the document for “accounts receivable”.
P. 13:
c. Part 3. The Debtors’ accounts receivable information includes receivables from the Debtors’ customers, vendors, or third parties, which are calculated net of any amounts that, as of the Petition Date, may be owed to such parties in the form of offsets or other price adjustments pursuant to the Debtors’ customer programs and day-to-day operations or may, in the Debtors’ opinion, be difficult to collect from such parties due to the passage of time or other circumstances. The accounts receivable balances in this section exclude intercompany receivables.
“… in this section …” Where are they?
Where is the Sunnova customer portfolio?
I expected to see the total outstanding balance for all current customer accounts, all delinquent accounts in the last 6 months, and, finally, OLD delinquent customer debts that are unlikely to be paid.
Conveniently absent is any mention of customers with defective systems and the many underperforming Sunnova solar systems.
Most Sunnova customers don’t know their rights and do not even know that their systems are not producing as promised and that they should receive CREDITS because of Sunnova’s deliberate, almost four-year (4) initial delay for credits from underproduction, as in my client’s lease.
Schedule A/B ASSETS #
1. Schedule A/B
a. Part 1. Sunnova’s Cash Management System comprises a total of 525 Bank Accounts. Of the Bank Accounts, 24 are owned and controlled by the Debtors, while the remaining 501 are owned by Non-Debtor Affiliates.
The Debtors own over 600 URL names, the majority of which are not in use. The Debtors have not listed all the URL names but retain ownership rights over these assets.
Part 11. The Debtors maintain approximately 40 insurance policies administered by multiple third-party insurance carriers and approximately 120 surety bonds provided by multiple third-party sureties. The insurance policies provide coverage for, among other things, the Debtors’ property, general liability, automobile liability, and directors’ and officers’ liability.
An attorney should research whether any policies could compensate defrauded customers.
Schedule E/F: Claims — including by customers? #
Where is Schedule E/F?
3. Schedule E/F Part 1. The claims listed on Part 1 arose and were incurred on various dates. A determination of the date upon which each claim arose or was incurred would be unduly burdensome and cost prohibitive. Accordingly, no such dates are included for each claim listed on Part 1.
Listing claim dates is “unduly burdensome and cost-prohibitive?”
Pursuant to the First Day Orders, the Court has authorized the Debtors to redact the names, mailing address, and email address of individuals including the Debtors’ customers listed on Schedule E/F. Such individuals shall be sent an individualized notice pursuant to an order of the Court establishing the dates by which parties in interest must file proofs of claim in these chapter 11 cases (the “Bar Dates”), which will enable such individuals to determine the amount of their scheduled claim. As of the date hereof, the Bar Dates are subject to ongoing negotiations with various parties in interest, and the Debtors reserve all rights to amend or supplement the amounts listed on Schedule E/F on account of such service retainers through and including the date on which the Court enters an order establishing the Bar Dates.
” … including the Debtors’ customers listed on Schedule E/F. …
Customers like my client? Is she on this list?
Yesterday I tried to get info in Sunnova chat, but got only more lies and an obnoxious demand for payment when I stated that the system has not produced a single kWh since 2/25. Fortunately, we documented that Sunnova promised new panels in March, and in a previous chat, Sunnova advised that they were waiting for materials.
I asked the CSR to email me yesterday’s chat, but she was unable to do so. She also referred me to Kroll for more info on claims, and I already wasted so much time in Kroll chat and got nothing but frustration.
Kroll is paid by and working for Sunnova.
Sunnova chat demands that we contact Kroll regarding claims.
Not only did Kroll chat refuse to answer questions and told me repeatedly to read documents instead of answering my questions regarding claims, but they are closed by 3 pm and on weekends!
Bankers’ hours are not appropriate!
Should employed customers take time off work to get answers?
NO regulatory actions against Sunnova 1 year prior to BK filing #
Shocking! I am floored.
How can this be?
The Sunnova victims’ Facebook group worked FOR Sunnova! #
The standard advice given to Sunnova victims in the Facebook Sunnova Complaints Group with over 3000 members:
Call your AG!
File your BBB complaint!
I posted in the group that they were wasting their time on those calls and that the Houston BBB works for Sunnova. I posted the link to our published Houston BBB complaint, documenting the BBB corruption, so other customers could see the procedures and how to avoid having their complaint rated as resolved by Sunnova (increasing the BBB rating).
They banned me from the FB group because I was “too aggressive.”
Are psychopaths, sadists, and/or crooks running this group?
Instead of providing sample complaints and organizing resistance, they allowed Sunnova and other solar companies’ marketers to “help.” Unfortunately, few Americans have functional BS detectors, most are functionally illiterate, and they fall for the same scams again and again.
I have to admit that, despite decades of consumer advocacy and countless fraud investigations, even I sometimes have trouble determining what’s true, what’s false, and whom to trust. It’s exhausting to spend hour after hour researching most products and services. Most working stiffs don’t have the time, equipment, and skills.
Our only purpose in life is to accumulate more wealth for the billionaires and oligarchs!!!???
Not a single regulator investigated this nationally publicized ongoing Sunnova fraud, and the Facebook group admins and moderators are either imbeciles or incredibly corrupt.
SOFA Question 3: Certain payments or transfers to creditors within 90 days before filing this case #
13 pages of payments to various solar companies and banks.
I didn’t see any payments to customers.
SOFA Question 4: Payments or other transfers of property made within 1 year before filing this case that benefited any insider #
17 pages of “INTERCOMPANY CASH TRANSFERS.”
No humans, all insiders are Sunnova LLCs and the “Relationship to Debtor” is “Affiliate.”
SOFA Question 13: Transfers not already listed on this statement #
SOFA Question 26a: List all accountants and bookkeepers who maintained the debtor’s books and records within 2 years before filing this case. #
Kim Hammer has been employed since 2014; everyone else has left. Robyn Liska started 3/31/25.
SOFA Question 26d: List all financial institutions, creditors, and other parties, including mercantile and trade agencies, to whom the debtor issues a financial statement within 2 years before filing this case. #
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Sunnova Energy International, Inc. has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) reports on Form 8-K, Form 10-Q, and Form 10-K. These SEC filings contain consolidated financial information relating to the Debtors. Additionally, consolidated financial information for the Debtors is posted on the company ‘s website at https://investors.sunnova.com/home/default.aspx. Because the SEC filings and the website are public record, the Debtors do not maintain records of the parties that requested or obtained copies of any of the SEC filings from the SEC or the Debtors.
In addition, in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors provide certain parties, such as financial institutions, investment banks, debtholders, auditors, potential investors, vendors, and financial advisors, financial statements that may not be part of a public filing. The Debtors do not maintain complete lists to track such disclosures. As such, the Debtors have not provided lists of these parties in response to this question.
SOFA Question 28: List the debtor’s officers, directors, managing members, general partners, members in control, controlling shareholders, or other people in control of the debtor at the time of the filing of this case. #
Of course, the rats left the sinking ship.
SOFA Question 29: Within 1 year before the filing of this case, did the debtor have officers, directors, managing members, general partners, members in control of the debtor, or shareholders in control of the debtor who no longer hold these positions? #
William J. Berger? Is that Sunnova founder John Berger?
If so, why the 1/18/2017 start date?
Why the name change?
I asked Ryan Omohundro on LinkedIn:
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7255604720495452160/?
No response as of 12/26/25. Another crook who should be in prison for enabling the fraudsters.
Founder and CEO John Berger removed his LinkedIn account. I requested assistance in comments on his LinkedIn posts regarding my client’s numerous, seemingly never-ending problems with her Sunnova solar system.
I am so overwhelmed trying to prepare our complaint to the CA AG, my client’s claim, my claim, and “trying” to figure out what is going on.
I hope I’ll have the time to give Enron-trained Sunnova Founder and former CEO John Berger the attention he deserves. He should be prosecuted for this enormous fraud in a blue state (so he won’t be pardoned), spend a few years behind bars, and his assets should be distributed to Sunnova customers.
PRISON for the CRIMINALS!
This document was signed on 7/7/25 by Chief Restructuring Officer Ryan Omohundro, who stated that he knows nothing and relied on information provided to him by unidentified individuals (the fraudsters).
