petitions for relief under chapter 11 of
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 Banptcy 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 jursdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 157
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
period ending May 31, 2009, at three-month intervals, each Professional shall fie and serve an

4. The retention ofPSZ&J, as co-counsel to the Debtors, was approved

or on behalf of
the Debtors.
6. PSZ&J has received no payment and no promises for payment from any
source other than the Debtors for services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity whatsoever
sharng of compensation to be received for services rendered in this case. PSZ&J has received
payments from the Debtors durng the year prior to the Petition Date in the amount of
$692,220.42, including the Debtors' aggregate fiing fees for these cases, in connection with the
preparation of initial documents and its prepetition representation of the Debtors. PSZ&J was
current as of the Petition Date. Upon final reconcilation of
prepetition, any balance remaining from the prepetition payments to PSZ&J was credited to the Debtors and utilized as PSZ&J's retainer to apply to postpetition fees and expenses pursuant to
the compensation procedures approved by this Cour and the Bankptcy Code.
Fee Statements
7. The fee statements for the Interim Period 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 ofPSZ&J's knowledge, ths Application
complies with sections 330 and 331 of
Administrative Order. PSZ&J's time reports are initially handwritten by the attorney or
paralegal performing the described services. The time reports are organized on a daily basis.
PSZ&J is paricularly sensitive to issues of "lumping" and, unless time was spent in one time
frame on a variety of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entres are set forth in the time reports. PSZ&J's charges for its professional services are based upon the time, natue,
extent and value of such services and the cost of comparable services other than in a case under
the Banruptcy Code. PSZ&J has reduced its charges related to any non-working "travel time"
to fifty percent (50%) ofPSZ&J's standard hourly rate. To the extent it is feasible, PSZ&J
68773-002\DOCS_DE: 156619.1
page for photocopying expenses related to cases, such as ths one, arising in Delaware. PSZ&ls
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. PSZ&J summarizes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.
9. PSZ&J charges $1.00 per page for out-going facsimile transmissions.
There is no additional charge for long distance telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing
facsimile transmissions reflects PSZ&l s calculation of the actual costs incured by PSZ&J for
the machines, supplies and extra labor expenses associated with sending telecopies and is
reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar services. PSZ&J does not charge the Debtors for the receipt of faxes in this case.
10. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services (~, LEXIS
and WESTLA W), PSZ&J charges the standard usage rates these providers charge for
computerized legal research. PSZ&J bils its clients the actual amounts charged by such
services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by PSZ&J is passed on to the client.
11. PSZ&J believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority
of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, PSZ&J 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 Januar 12, 1995, regarding biling for disbursements and
other charges.
68773-002\DOCS_DE: I 56619. I
professional services in these cases during the Interim Period, and the paralegals and case management assistants of PSZ&J who provided services to these attorneys during the Interim
Period, are set forth'in the attached Exhibit A.
13. PSZ&J, by and though such persons, has prepared and assisted in the
preparation of varous motions and orders submitted to the Cour for consideration, advised the
Debtors on a regular basis with respect to varous matters in connection with the Debtors'
banptcy cases, and performed all necessary professional services which are described and
narated in detail below. PSZ&J's efforts have been extensive due to the size and complexity of

compensated on an hourly basis and to be reimbursed for actual and necessary out -of-pocket
expenses.
PSZ&J's APPLICATION
or on behalf of
the Debtors.
6. PSZ&J has received no payment and no promises for payment from any
source other than the Debtors for services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity whatsoever
sharing of compensation to be received for services rendered in this case. PSZ&J has received
payments from the Debtors during the year prior to the Petition Date in the amount of

$692,220.42, including the Debtors' aggregate fiing fees for these cases, in connection with the
preparation of initial documents and its prepetition representation of
current as of
prepetition, any balance remaining from the prepetition payments to PSZ&J was credited to the
Debtors and utilzed as PSZ&ls retainer to apply to postpetition fees and expenses pursuant to
the compensation procedures approved by this Court and the Bankptcy Code.
Fee Statements
7. The fee statements for the Interim Period 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 ofPSZ&J's knowledge, this Application
complies with sections 330 and 331 of
Administrative Order. PSZ&ls time reports are initially handwritten by the attorney or
paralegal performing the described services. The time reports are organized on a daily basis.
PSZ&J is particularly sensitive to issues of
frame on a variety of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entries are set forth in
the time reports. PSZ&J's 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. PSZ&J has reduced its charges related to any non-working "travel time"
to fifty percent (50%) ofPSZ&ls standard hourly rate. To the extent it is feasible, PSZ&J
professionals attempt to work during travel.
68773-002\DOCS_DE: i 57830. i
page for photocopying expenses related to cases, such as this one, arising in Delaware. PSZ&J'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.
PSZ&J summarizes each client's photocopying charges on a daily basis.
9. PSZ&J charges $ 1.00 per page for out-going facsimile transmissions.
There is no additional charge for long distance telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing
facsimile transmissions reflects PSZ&J's calculation of
the machines, supplies and extra labor expenses associated with sending telecopies and is
reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar services.
PSZ&J does not charge the Debtors for the receipt of faxes in this case.
10. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services (~, LEXIS
and WESTLA W), PSZ&J charges the standard usage rates these providers charge for
computerized legal research. PSZ&J bils its clients the actual amounts charged by such
services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by PSZ&J is passed on to the client.
11. PSZ&J believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority
of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, PSZ&J 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 billng for disbursements and
other charges.
68773-002\DOCS_DE: 157830.)

preparation of various motions and orders submitted to the Court for consideration, advised the
Debtors on a regular basis with respect to various matters in connection with the Debtors'
bankuptcy cases, and performed all necessary professional services which are described and narrated in detail below. PSZ&J's efforts have been extensive due to the size and complexity of

Order"), Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP ("PSZ&J" or the "Firm"), counsel to the Debtors
and Debtors in Possession ("Debtors"), hereby submits its Twelfth Monthly Application for

total allowance of$108,427.41 and payment of $79,786.40 (80% of
reimbursement of
$8,694.41 (100% of
for the period February 1, 2010 through February 28, 2010 (the "Interim Period"). In support of
this Application, PSZ&J respectfully represents as follows:
Back~round
1. On March 9, 2009 (the "Petiton Date"), the Debtors filed voluntary
petitions for relief under chapter 11 of
oftheir properties and continues to operate and manage their business as debtors in possession
pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of
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 V.S.C. 157
The Administrative Order provides, among other things, that a Professional may submit monthly
fee applications. Ifno 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 percent (100%) of
68773-002\DOCS_DE: i 58726.1
period ending May 31, 2009, at three-month intervals, each Professional shall fie and serve an
interim application for allowance of
period. All fees and expenses paid are on an interim basis until final allowance by the Court.
4. The retention ofPSZ&J, as co-counsel to the Debtors, was approved
effective as of
the Bankptcy
Debtors and Debtors in Possession Nunc Pro Tunc to the Petition Date," entered on or about
April 9, 2009 (the "Retention Order"). The Retention Order authorized PSZ&J to be
compensated on an hourly basis and to be reimbursed for actual and necessary out-of-pocket
expenses.
or on behalf of
the Debtors.
6. PSZ&J has received no payment and no promises for payment from any
source other than the Debtors for services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity whatsoever
sharing of compensation to be received for services rendered in this case. PSZ&J has received
payments from the Debtors during the year prior to the Petition Date in the amount of
$692,220.42, including the Debtors' aggregate fiing fees for these cases, in connection with the
preparation of initial documents and its prepetition representation of
current as of the Petition Date. Upon final reconciliation of the amount actually expended
prepetition, any balance remaining from the prepetition payments to PSZ&J was credited to the Debtors and utilized as PSZ&J's retainer to apply to postpetition fees and expenses pursuant to
the compensation procedures approved by this Court and the Bankruptcy Code.
Fee Statements
7. The fee statements for the Interim Period 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 ofPSZ&J's knowledge, this Application
complies with sections 330 and 331 of
Administrative Order. PSZ&J's time reports are initially handwritten by the attorney or
paralegal performing the described services. The time reports are organized on a daily basis.
PSZ&J is particularly sensitive to issues of "lumping" and, unless time was spent in one time
frame on a variety of different matters for a paricular client, separate time entries are set forth in
the time reports. PSZ&J's 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 Banruptcy Code. PSZ&J has reduced its charges related to any non-working "travel time"
to fifty percent (50%) ofPSZ&J's standard hourly rate. To the extent it is feasible, PSZ&J
professionals attempt to work during travel.
There is no additional charge for long distance telephone calls on faxes. The charge for outgoing
facsimile transmissions reflects PSZ&J's calculation of
the machines, supplies and extra labor expenses associated with sending telecopies and is
reasonable in relation to the amount charged by outside vendors who provide similar services.
PSZ&J does not charge the Debtors for the receipt offaxes in this case.
10. With respect to providers of on-line legal research services (~, LEXIS
and WESTLA W), PSZ&J charges the standard usage rates these providers charge for
computerized legal research. PSZ&J bils its clients the actual amounts charged by such
services, with no premium. Any volume discount received by PSZ&J is passed on to the client.
1 i. PSZ&J believes the foregoing rates are the market rates that the majority
of law firms charge clients for such services. In addition, PSZ&J 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 billng for disbursements and
other charges.
68773-002\DOCS_DE: 158726.1
professional services in these cases during the Interim Period, and the paralegals and case
management assistants of PSZ&J who provided services to these attorneys during the Interim Period, are set forth in the attached Exhibit A.
13. PSZ&J, by and through such persons, has prepared and assisted in the
preparation of
varous motions and orders submitted to the Court for consideration, advised the
Debtors on a regular basis with respect to various matters in connection with the Debtors'
bankruptcy cases, and performed all necessary professional services which are described and
narrated in detail below. PSZ&J's efforts have been extensive due to the size and complexity of
into the categories set forth below. PSZ&J attempted to place the services provided in the
category that best relates to such services. However, because certain services may relate to one
or more categories, services pertaining to one category may in fact be included in another
category. These services performed, by categories, are generally described below, with a more
detailed identification of
