compensated on an hourly basis and to be reimbursed for actual and necessa out-ofpocket expenses.

S. All services for which Rutan requests compensation were performed for or

on behalf of the Debtors.


6. Ruta has received no payment and no promises for payment from any
source other than the Debtors for services rendered or to be rendered in

1023640.0Ia071l310

-3-

Rutan received payments from the Debtors during the year prior to the Petition Date in
the amount of $2,437,169.16. Ruta was owed approximately $17,583.26 as of the

Petition Date, subject to a final reconcilation of the amount actuly expended


prepetition. Upon fmal reconcilation of the amount actually expended prepetition, any

balance remaining from the prepetition payments to Ruta was credited to the Debtors
and utilized as Ruta's retainer to apply to postpetition fees and expenses pursuant to the

compensation procedurcs approved by this Cour and the Banptcy Code.


Fee Statements
7. Rutan's biling statements for the Interim Period are atthed hereto as

Exhibit A. These statements contain daily time logs describing the time spent by each
attrney and paraprofessional durg the Interim Period. To the best of Ruta's

knowledge, this Application complies with sections 330 and 331 of the Banptcy Code,

the Federa Rules of Banptcy Procedure, this Cour's Local Rules, and the
Administative Order. Ruta's time reports are either (a) initially handwrtten by the
attorney or paralegal performing the described serces and then entered into Ruta's computerized billng program by an administrtive assistat or (b) entered directly into

Ruta's computerzed biling program by the attorney or paralegal perfonnng the


described servces. The time report are then organzed on a daily basis. Rutan is
sensitive to issues of

"Iwnping" and, uness time was spent in one tie frame on a varety

of different matters for a particular client, separte tie entries 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 comparble services other than in a case

under the Banptcy Code.

Actual and Necessarv EXenses


8. A suiar of actual and necessar expenses incured by Rutan for the
Intenm Period is attched hereto as par of Exhibit A. Rutan charges $0.10 per page for

photocopying expenses related to cases, such as ths one, arsing in Delaware. Ruta's
photocopying machines automaticaly 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 sumarzes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.


9. Rutan charges $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional page
of out-going facsimile transmissions. There is no additionaJ charge for long distance

telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing facsimile transmissions reflects
Ruta's calculation of

the actul costs incurd by Rutan for the machines, supplies, and

extra labor expenses associated with sending facsimile transmissions and is reasonable in

reJation to the amount charged by outide vendors who provide simlar services. Ruta
does not charge the Debtors for the recipt of

faxes in ths case.

10. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services \S, LEXIS
and WESTLA W), Ruta charges the standard usage rates these providers charge for

computerized legaJ research. Rut bils its clients the actu amounts charged by such
services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by Rut is passed on to the

client.
i l. Ruta 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 accordace with the Amencan Bar Association's ("ABA") guidelines, as set forth

in the ABA's Statement of Pnnciples, dated Januar 12, 1995-, regaring billing for

on the Debtors' behalf. Rutan receiyed payments from the Debtors during the year prior

to the Petition Date in the amount of $2,437, 169.l6. As of the Petition Date, Rutan was

owed approximately $17,583.26.2 After fina reconcilation of the amounts expended

Administrative Order. Rutan's time report are either (a) initially handwrtten by the

attorney or paralegal perorming the descnbed services and then entered into Rutan's
computerized biling program by an administratve assistt or (b) entered directly into

Rutan's computerized biling progr by the attorney or paralegal peronnng the


described services. The tie reports ar then organized on a daily basis. Ruta is
senstive to issues of "lumping" and, unless time was spent in one time fre on a variety

of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entres are set forth in the time

report. 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 casc

under the Banruptcy Code.


Actual and Necessary Expenses

10. A sumar of actual and necessar expenses incured by Ruta for the
Interim Period is attched hereto as par of Exhbit A. Ruta charges $0.1 0 per page for

photocopying expenses related to cases, such as ths one, arising 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 number into a device attched to the
photocopier. Rutan sumarizes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.
i I. Ruta charges $ 1 .00 for the first page and $0.50 for each additional page

of out-going facsimile transmissions. There is DO additional charge for long distance

telephone cals on faxes. The charge for outoing facsimile transmissions reflects
Rutan i s calculation of the actual costs incured by Ruta for the machies, 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

21131033S3-0031 loi348Q,OI 1071010

-5.

does not charge the Debtors for the receipt offaxes in this cae.

12. With respect to providers of on-line legal reseach services : LEXIS

and WESTLA W), Rutan charges the stdard usage rates these providers charge for
computerized legal research. Rutan bils its clients the actual amountc; charged by such
services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by Rutan is passed on to the
client.
13. Ruta bils other expenses to its clients at cost. For example, on Debtors'

behalf Rutan incurred expenses relating to the maitenance of an online data room in
connection with the proposed sale of certin of Debtors' assets. The online data room
provided perspective purchasers with access to due dilgence documents and fies. Rutan
seeks reimbursement for these costs, and invoices relating to the data room expenscs arc
attached as Exhibit B.

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 fort

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

Summarv of Services Rendered


15. The names of the parers and associates of Ruta who have rendered

Rules of Bankruptcy Pracedure, this Court's Local Rules, and the Administrative Order.)

Rutan's time reports are either (a) initially handwritten by the attorney or paralegal
performing the described services and then entered into Rutan's computerized billing
pragram by

an administrative assistant or (b) entered directly into Rutan's computerized

biling program by the attorney or paralegal performing the described scrvices. 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. Rutan's charges for its
prafessional 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

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

Interim Period is attached hereto as part of Exhibit A. Receipts for certain of the
expenses that Rutan incurred on Debtors' behalf and for which it seeks reimbursement
are attached hereto as Exhibit B.
10. Rutan charges $0.10 per page for photocopying expenses related to cases,

such as this one, arising 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 number into a device attached to the photocopier. Rutan summarizes
L

3 Rutan has amended this fee application to ensure such compliance. Rutan's original application sought fees for the time Gregg Amber spent travellng to, and returning from, Hong Kong with certain of Debtor's offcers and/or directors to, among other things, attend meeting with Polytec's representatives. Initially, Mr. Amber biled Debtor for approximately half of the time he spent travellng at his
time he spent travel at half of

normal hourly rate. In this application, Mr. Amber has billed Debtor for all of the his normal rate.

each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.

11. 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

Rutan's 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.

12. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services (~, LEXIS
and WESTLA W), 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.
13. 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 Association's ("ABA") guidelines, as set forth

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