The Court held the proceeding required special skill and was category 3; the claimed time bands B and C were reasonable given complexity; the Receivers are entitled to recover disbursements including fees for Mr Nikora as expert; costs of the Receivers' failed interim sale application are to be set off against sums awarded to the Receivers; no order for increased costs was made because there was no demonstrable unreasonable conduct by StockCo in litigation; no reduction in the Receivers' costs was ordered; costs of the applications in the costs judgment lie where they fall.
