Buroker, Esq. KD 4951531_I.DOCX KRIEG/DEVAULT January 1, 2013 KRIEG/DEVAULT SCHEDULE A Terms of Engagement Our fees for legal and professional services will be billed on an hourly basis according to the billing rates charged by each lawyer, professional or paralegal of our firm who provides services in this engagement. These billing rates are subject to adjustment without notice from time to time by the firm, but rates are typically adjusted only as of January 1 of each year. In certain instances, other factors may be taken into consideration in determining our fees, including the responsibility and liability assumed, the novelty and difficulty of the legal problem involved, whether the firm is requested to issue its formal legal opinion associated with some facet of its representation, the benefit resulting to the client and any unforeseen circumstances arising in the course of our representation. Our current billing rates for attorneys range between $200.00 and $535.00 per hour. The current billable rate for Robert S. Schein is $385.00 per hour and Thomas J. Costakis is $425.00 per hour. Paralegal rates are in the $165.00 to $230.00 range. As legal services are performed, we will provide you with invoices on a monthly basis. The invoices will describe our services and itemize our expenses in accordance with our standard firm policies. A schedule of our standard charges for these expenses is enclosed for your reference. If major expenses are to be incurred, we may request that you pay these expenses directly at the time they are incurred. Subject to any limitations imposed by the Rules of Professional Conduct, our firm will be entitled to cease work on any aspect of this representation if any invoices are not paid within thirty (30) days after the invoice is mailed. If we are required to resort to collection proceedings to recover any amounts from you, we will also be entitled to recover all costs incurred concerning such collection proceedings including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred either by us or separate counsel. By signing and returning the additional copy of this engagement letter, you agree that in any such collection proceedings or dispute regarding the attorney-client relationship, venue shall be in any federal or state court located in any county in Indiana where we maintain an office and render services for you; you consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any such court, and you agree that this agreement shall be governed by Indiana law, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions therein. You shall have the right at any time to terminate our services and representation upon written notice to firm. Such termination shall not, however, relieve you of the obligation to pay for all services rendered and costs or expenses incurred on your behalf prior to the date of such termination. As permitted by law, we reserve the right to retain your files until all invoices have been paid in full. Subject to our obligations under the Rules of Professional Conduct, we reserve the right to withdraw from your representation if, among other things, you fail to honor the terms of this engagement letter, you fail to cooperate or follow our advice on a material matter, or any fact or circumstance would, in our view, render our continuing representation unlawful or unethical, or if we, in good faith, determine that you are unable to comply with the terms of this engagement. If we elect to withdraw from your representation, you agree to take all steps necessary to free us of any obligation to perform further, including the execution of any documents reasonably necessary to complete our withdrawal, and we will be entitled to be paid for all services rendered and costs and expenses incurred on your behalf through the date of withdrawal. In the event that we use electronic mail or cellular phones at any time to communicate with each other, or with third parties, you acknowledge that we have advised you that electronic mail and cellular phones may be subject to a greater risk of interception or unauthorized access than wire-line telephone communication, If at any time you desire that we not use electronic mail or cellular phones, you will advise us of such desire and we will act in accordance with your instruction. If you do not so advise us, we will assume that you consent to the use of electronic mail and cellular phones for communications between our attorneys, professionals and staff and you or other persons with respect to your matters and in particular this engagement. IRS Circular 230 Notice: Unless otherwise written during the course of our representation, written advice rendered, including attachments, on U.S. tax issues (i) is not intended or written to be used, and it cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed by the IRS on taxpayers, and (ii) may not be used or referred to in promoting, marketing or recommending a partnership or other entity, investment plan or arrangement.
