and 1409.   
6.

payment from any source for services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity whatsoever in 
connection with the matters covered by this Fee Statement.  There is no agreement or 
understanding between Weil and any other person, other than members of Weil, for the sharing of 
compensation to be received for services rendered in these Chapter 11 Cases.

12. 
The foregoing professional services performed by Weil were necessary and 
appropriate to the administration of these Chapter 11 Cases and were in the best interests of the 
Debtors’ estates and their stakeholders.  Compensation for the foregoing services as requested is 
commensurate with the complexity, importance, and nature of the problems, issues, and tasks 
involved.  The professional services were performed skillfully and efficiently. 
Actual and Necessary Disbursements 
13. 
Weil requests allowance of actual and necessary expenses incurred during 
the Fee Period in the aggregate amount of $6,583.58.  Annexed hereto as Exhibit B is a list of 
Weil’s itemized actual and necessary expenses.  Weil’s disbursement policies pass through all out-
of-pocket expenses at actual cost or an estimated actual cost when the actual cost is difficult to 
determine.  For example, with respect to duplication charges, Weil charges $0.10 per black and 
white page and $0.50 per color page because the actual cost is difficult to determine.  Similarly, as 
it relates to computerized research, Weil believes that it does not make a profit on that service as 
a whole, although the cost of any particular search is difficult to ascertain.  Other reimbursable

expenses (whether the service is performed by Weil in-house or through a third-party vendor) 
include, but are not limited to, overtime meals, deliveries, travel, and local transportation. 
Reservation of Rights 
14. 
To the extent time or disbursement charges for services rendered or 
disbursements incurred relate to the Fee Period but were not processed prior to the preparation of 
this Fee Statement, or Weil has for any other reason not sought compensation or reimbursement 
of expenses herein with respect to any services rendered or expenses incurred during the Fee 
Period, Weil reserves the right to request additional compensation for such services and 
reimbursement of such expenses in a future fee statement. 
Notice 
15. 
Notice of this Fee Statement will be provided in accordance with the Interim 
Compensation Order on the Fee Notice Parties (as defined in the Interim Compensation Order).  
No further notice is required.

WHEREFORE Weil respectfully requests (a)  interim allowance of compensation 
for professional services rendered to the Debtors during the Fee Period in the amount of 
$1,586,300.50 for actual and necessary costs, and for expenses incurred by Weil during the Fee 
Period in the amount of $6,583.58; (b)  that, in accordance with the Interim Compensation Order, 
the Debtors pay Weil a total of $1,275,623.98 consisting of $1,269,040.40 (representing 80% of 
the total amount of fees allowed) and $6,583.58 (representing 100% of the expenses allowed), if 
no objections are timely filed and Weil files a certificate of no objection with the Court in 
accordance with the Interim Compensation Order; (c)  that the interim allowance of such 
compensation for professional services rendered and reimbursement of actual and necessary 
expenses incurred be without prejudice to Weil’s right to seek such further compensation for the 
full value of services performed and expenses incurred; and (d)  that the Court grant Weil such 
other and further relief as is just.
