respectfully submitted that the amount requested by Ropes & Gray is fair and reasonable given 8

Actual and Necessary Expenses
17.
Ropes & Gray incurred a total of $4,046.53 in actual and necessary expenses in

Ropes & Gray's billing rates do not include charges for photocopying,
computerized research, travel, "working meals," secretarial overtime, postage, and certain other office services. Because the needs of each client for such services differ, Ropes & Gray believes that it is fairest to charge each client only for the services actually used in performing services for such client. In these proceedings, Ropes & Gray charges $.10 per page for internal duplicating. Ropes & Gray does not charge for long distance telephone calls placed from Ropes & Gray's offices or incoming and outgoing facsimile transmissions. 19.

No previous application has been filed for the amounts requested herein. No Adverse Interest 23. At all relevant times, Ropes & Gray has neither represented nor held any interest
adverse to the estate. WHEREFORE, Ropes & Gray respectfully requests this Court to (a) allow Ropes & Gray (i) compensation in the amount of $238,860.00 for actual, reasonable, and necessary professional services rendered on behalf of the Committee during the Second Period and (ii) reimbursement in the amount of $4,046.53 for actual, reasonable, and necessary expenses incurred during the Second Period; (b) authorize and direct the Debtors to pay Ropes & Gray the amount of $191,088.00, which is equal to the sum of 80% of Ropes & Gray's fees sought herein, and $4,046.53, which is equal to 100% of Ropes & Gray's expenses and disbursements sought herein; and (c) grant such other and further relief as is just.
