In support of this Application, Rutan respectfully represents as follows:

Background
1. On March 9, 2009 (the "Petition Date"), the Debtors filed voluntary

petitions fbr relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors continue in possession of their properties and continues to operate and manage their business as debtors in possession pursuant to sections 11 07(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. A Committee of Unsecured Creditors ("Committee") was appointed on or about March 19, 2009. No trustee or examiner has been appointed in the Debtors chapter 11 cases. 2. The Court has jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157

and 1334. This is a core proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157(b)(2), 3. On or about April 8, 2009. the Court entered the Administrative Order,

authorizing certain professionals ("Professionals") to submit monthly applications for interim compensation and reimbursement for expenses, pursuant to the procedures specified therein. The Administrative Order provides, among other things, that a Professional may submit monthly fee applications. If no objections are made within twenty (20) days after service of the monthly fee application the Debtors are authorized to pay the Professional eighty percent (80%) of the requested fees and one hundred

2 12,023353-0031 ]I72OOl -102! 181;

-2-

percent (100%) of the requested expenses. Beginning with the period ending May 31, 2009, at three-month intervals, each Professional shall file and serve an interim application for allowance of the amounts sought in its monthly fee applications for that period. All fees and expenses paid arc on an interim basis until final allowance by the Court. 4. The retention of Rutan, as special corporate and litigation counsel to the

Debtors, was approved effective as of the Petition Date by this Courts "Order Granting Debtors Application Pursuant to Sections 105(A), 327, 328, and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code Authorizing Debtors to Retain, Employ and Compensate Rutan & Tucker, LLP as Special Corporation and Litigation Counsel," entered on or about May I, 2009 (the "Retention Order"). The Retention Order authorized Rutaii to be compensated on an hourly basis and to he reimbursed for actual and necessary out-of-pocket expenses.

RUTANS APPLICATION FOR COMPENSATION AND FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES Compensation Paid and Its Source
5. All services for which Rutan requests compensation were performed for or

on behalf of the Debtors. 6. Rutari has received no payment and no promises for payment from any

source other than the Debtors for services rendered or to he rendered in any capacity whatsoever in connection with the matters covered by this Application. There is no ag reement or understanding between Rutan and any other person other than the partners of Rutan for the sharing of compensation to be received for services rendered in this case. Rutan received payments from the Debtors during the year prior to the Petition Date in the amount of $2,437,169.16. After the Petition Date, Rutan obtained the Courts

212 03.153.002I 15672001 02/tiI I

-,

permission to draw on its prepetition retainer to pay the amounts owing to it as of the Petition Dale. The balance remaining from the prepetition retainer was credited to the Debtors and is being utilized as Rutans retainer to apply to postpetition fees and expenses pursuant to the compensation procedures approved by this Court and the Bankruptcy Code. Monthly Fee Applications Covered By This Quarterly Application 7. Rutans Monthly Fee Applications for the period Septermber 1, 2010,

through December 23, 2010, have been filed and served pursuant to the Administrative Order. 8. On October 14, 2010, Rutan filed its Nineteenth Monthly Application for

Compensation and for Reimbursement of Expenses of Rutan & Tucker, LLP as Special Counsel to the Debtors and Debtors in Possession for the Period from September 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010. The Nineteenth Monthly Fee Application seeks approval of $4522.00 in fees and $30.00 in expenses. Pursuant to the Administrative Order, Rutan was authorized to receive $3,617.60 in fees and $30.00 in expenses. A true and correct copy of the Nineteenth Monthly Fee Application is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 9. On February 21, 2011, Rutan filed its Twentieth Monthly Application for

The Monthly Fee Applications covered by this Application contain

detailed daily time logs describing the actual and necessary services performed by Rutan for the Debtors during the Interim Period. The Monthly Fee Applications also contain other detailed information that is required to be included by the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules, and this Courts Local Rules. Relief Requested 11. Rutan requests that the Court approve payment of one hundred percent

(100%) of the fees and costs incurred by Rutan during the Interim Period of October 1, 2010, through December 23, 2010. 12. The professional services for which Rutan seeks interim allowance of

compensation, and the attendant costs for which Rutan seeks reimbursement, were rendered and incurred in connection with this ease as Rutan discharged its duties as special corporate and litigation counsel for the Debtors. Rutans services have been necessary and beneficial to the Debtors, its estate, and the various parties in interest. 13. Under 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, Rutan respectfully submits that the

amount requested by Rutan is fair and reasonable given (a) the complexity of these cases, (b) the time expended, (c) the nature and extent of the services rendered, (d) the value of such services, and (e) the costs of comparable services other than in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. Further, Rutan has reviewed Local Rule 2016-2 and the

Administrative Order and believes that this Application complies with requirements of that Rule and Order. WHEREFORE, Rutan respectfully requests that the Court enter and order (i) approving and allowing on an interim basis Rutans fees in the amount of $11,055.50 and

2 I23O23353.(iflI !l5(,72OO a02181t

costs in the amount of $98.20, for a total allowance of $11 ,153.70; (ii) directing the Debtors to pay Rutan the outstanding amount of such sums; and (iii) granting Rittan such other and further relief as the Court deems just and proper.

10.

A summary of actual and necessary expenses incurred by Rutan for the

Interim Period is attached hereto as part of E xhibit A. II. Rutan charges $0.10 per page for photocopying expenses related to cases,

such as this one, arising in Delaware.

Rutan summarizes each clients photocopying charges on a daily basis. 12. Rutan charges $1.00 for the firsi 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 Rutans calculation of the actual costs incurred by Rutan 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 (g,, LEXIS

computerized legal research. Rutan bills 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

are attached hereto as Exhibit A. These statements contain daily time logs describing the time spent by each attorney and paraprofessional during the Interim Period. To the best of Rutans knowledge, this Application complies with sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, this Courts Local Rules, and the Administrative Order. Rutans time reports are either (a) initially handwritten by the attorney or paralegal performing the described services and then entered into Rutans

21231023353-0031 114312501 a02/18/11

computerized billing program by an administrative assistant or (b) entered directly into Rutans 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 variety of different matters for a particular client, separate time entries are set forth in the time reports. Rutans charges for its professional services are based upon the time, nature, extent and value of such services and the cost of comparable services other than in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. Actual and Necessary Expenses 10. A summary of actual and necessary expenses incurred by Rutan for the

Interim Period is attached hereto as part of Exhibit A. 11. Rutan charges $0. 10 per page for photocopying expenses related to cases,

such as this one, arising in Delaware. Rutans photocopying machines automatically record the number of copies made when the person that is doing the copying enters the clients account number into a device attached to the photocopier. Rutan summarizes each clients 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 distance telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing facsimile transmissions reflects Rutans calculation of the actual costs incurred by Rutan 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.

With respect to providers of on-line legal research services

LEXIS

and WESTLAW), Rutan charges the standard usage rates these providers charge for computerized legal research. Rutan bills 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 firms charge clients for such services. In addition, Rutan believes that such charges are in accordance with the American Bar Associations ("ABA") guidelines, as set forth in the ABAs Statement of Principles, dated January 12, 1995, regarding billing for disbursements and other charges. Summary of Services Rendered 15. The names of the partners and associates of Rutan who have rendered

professional services in these cases during the Interim Period, and the paralegals and case management assistants of Rutan who provided services to these attorneys during the Interim Period, are set forth in the attached Exhibit A. 16.
