the lowest hourly rate professional appropriate for a particular matter. Morris Nichols believes
that it has been successful in this regard.
18. In addition, Morris Nichols has coordinated with the Committee’s other
professionals to avoid unnecessary duplication of efforts.
19. Except as set forth in this Application, the Plan, the Confirmation Order,
