9. Ruta's biling statements for the Interim Period are attched hereto as

Exhibit A. These statements contan daily time logs describing the time spent by each
attorney and paraprofessional durng the Interim Period. To the best of Rutan's

knowledge, this Application complies with sections 330 and 33 i of the Banptcy
Code, the Federal Rules of Banuptcy Procedure, this Court's Local Rules, and the

Administrative Order. Ruta's time reports are either (a) initially handwritten by the
attorney or paralegal performing the described services and then entered into Ruta's
computerized billng program by an administrative assistant or (b) entered directly into

Ruta's computerized billing program by the attorney or paralegal performing the described services. The time reports are then organized on a daily basis. Rutan is
sensitive to issues of "lumping" and, unless time was spent in one time frame on a
varety of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entries are set fort in
the time reports. Rutan's charges for its professional services are based upon the time,

2Ji310i3353.(031
1043i)9.01 alOnOlO9

~5-

nature, extent and value of such services and the cost of comparable services other

than in a case under the Bankptcy Code.


Actual and Necessarv EXDenses

i O. A summary of actual and necessary expenses incured by Rutan for the


Interim Period is attached hereto as par of Exhibit A.
i l. Rutan charges $0. i 0 per page for photocopying expenses related to

cases, such as this one, arsing in Delaware. Rutan's photocopying machines

automatically record the number of copies made when the person that is doing the
copying enters the client's account nwnber into a device attached to the photocopier.
Rutan summarzes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.

12. Ruta charges $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional
page of out-going facsimile transmissions. There is no additional charge for long
distace telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing facsimile transmissions

reflects Rutan's calculation of the actual costs incured by Ruta for the machines,
supplies, and extra labor expenses associated with sending facsimile transmissions and
is reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar
services. Ruta does not charge the Debtors for the receipt of faxes in ths case.
i 3. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services (M,,

LEXIS and WESTLA W), Ruta charges the stadard usage rates these providers
charge for computerized legal research. Rutan bils its clients the actual amounts
charged by such services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by Rutan
is passed on to the client.
14.

Ruta believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority

2123/023353-003 i 1043219.01 .10120/09

-6-

of law finns charge clients for such services. In addition, Rutan believes that such

charges are in accordance with the American Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines,

as set forth in the ABA's Statement of Principles, dated Januar 12, 1995, regarding
biling for disbursements and other charges.

Summary of Services Rendered


i 5. The names of the parners and associates of Rutan who have rendered
professional services in these cases during the Interim Period, and the paralegals and

case management assistats of Ruta who provided services to these attorneys durng

knowledge, this Application complies with sections 330 and 33 i of the Banptcy
Code, the Federal Rules of Banptcy Procedure, this Cour's Local Rules, and the

Administrative Order. Ruta's time reports are either (a) initially handwritten by the
attorney or paralegal performing the described services and then entered into Ruta's

Rutan's computerized biling program by the attorney or paralegal performing the


described services. The time report are then organzed on a daily basis. Ruta is

2123/023353-0031
1050439.01 al Jn3/09

-5-

sensitive to issues of "lumping" and, unless time was spent in one time frame on a
varety of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entres are set forth in
the time reports. Ruta's charges for its professional services are based upon the time,

nature, extent and value of such services and the cost of comparble services other
than in a case under the Banuptcy Code.
Actual and Necessary Expenses

10. A summary of actual and necessar expenses incured by Ruta for the
Interim Period is attched hereto as par of Exhibit A.

i 1. Ruta charges $0.10 per page for photocopying expenses related to

cases, such as this one, arsing in Delaware. Ruta's photocopying machines

automatically record the number of copies made when the person that is doing the
copying enters the client's account number into a device attched to the photocopier.
Ruta summarzes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.

12. Ruta charges $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional
page of out-going facsimile transmissions. There is no additional charge for long
distance telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing facsimile transmissions

reflects Rutan's calculation of the actual costs incured by Ruta for the machines,
supplies, and extra labor expenses associated with sending facsimile transmissions and
is reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar

services. Rutan does not charge the Debtors for the receipt of faxes in this case.

13. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services ~,


LEXIS and WESTLA W), Ruta charges the stadad usage rates these providers
charge for computerized legal research. Rutan bils its clients the actual amounts

2123/023353-03 J
1050439.01 .J 1/23/D9

-6-

charged by such services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by Rutan
is passed on to the client.

14. Rutan believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority

of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, Ruta believes that such
charges are in accordance with the American Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines,

as set forth in the ABA's Statement of Principles, dated Januar 12, 1995, regarding
billng for disbursements and other charges.

9. Ruta's billing statements for the Interim Period are attched hereto as

Exlbit A. These statements contain daily time logs describing the time spent by each
attorney and paraprofessional durng the Interim Period. To the best of Ruta's

knowledge, ths Application complies with sections 330 and 331 of the Banptcy
Code, the Federal Rules of Banptcy Procedure, this Court's Local Rules, and the

Administrative Order. Rutan's time reports are either (a) initially handwrittn by the
attorney or paralegal performing the described services and then entered into Ruta's
computerized billng program by

an adnnistrative assistat or (b) entered directly into

2 i 231023353..03 i

1055969.01 aI2/08/09

-5-

Ruta's computerized biling program by the attorney or paralegal performing the


described services. The time reports are then organized on a daily basis. Rutan is
sensitive to issues of "lwnping" and, uness time was spent in one time frame on a
varety of different matters for a parcular client, separate time entres are set fort in
the time reports. Ruta's charges for its professional services are based upon the time,
natue, extent and value of such services and the cost of comparable services other

than in a case under the Banptcy Code.


Actual and Necessary Expenses

10. A summar of actual and necessar expenses incured by Ruta for the
Interim Period is attched hereto as par of Exhbit A.
i i. Rutan charges $0.10 per page for photocopying expenses related to

cases, such as this one, arising in Delaware. Ruta's photocopying machines

automatically record the number of copies made when the person that is doing the
copying enters the client's account nwnber into a device attched to the photocopier.

Rutan summarzes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.


12. Rutan charges $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional
page of out-going facsimile transmissions. There is no additional charge for long
distace telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing facsimile transmissions

reflects Ruta's calculation of the actual costs incured by Ruta for the machines,
supplies, and extra labor expenses associated with sending facsimile transmissions and
is reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar
services. Ruta does not charge the Debtors for the receipt of faxes in ths case.
13.

With respect to providers of on-line legal research services ~,

LEXIS and WESTLA W), Ruta charges the stadard usage rates these providers

charge for computerized legal research. Ruta bils its clients the actual amounts
charged by such services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by Rutan
is passed on to the client.

14. Rutan believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority

of law fiims charge clients for such services. In addition, Ruta believes that such
charges are in accordance with the America Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines,
as set fort in the ABA's Statement of Principles, dated Januar 12, 1995, regarding
biling for disbursements and other charges.
