Case 22-10951-CTG    Doc 600    Filed 03/03/23    Page 12 of 15

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 
$1,966,530.50 for actual and necessary costs, and for expenses incurred by Weil during the Fee 
Period in the amount of $14,835.24; (b)  that, in accordance with the Interim Compensation Order,

the total amount of fees allowed) and $14,835.24 (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

other and further relief as is just.
