Monroe Coun,ty ~J. Dear Suzanne: '\ ~ It is our pleasure to continue our longstandin~lationShip with the Monroe County and to represent Monroe County in connection with Emmert v. Monroe County. Enclosed is the signed standard Monroe County contract. Please note the following changes: Page 1 - deletion of Derek Howard's name from line 8. Exhibit A - Addition of hourly rates for attorneys Robert H. Freilich at $605 per hour and Elisa Paster at $370 per hour. Addition of law clerk Eric Schames at $150 per hour and paralegal Geoff Stern at $160 per hour. Please initial and date the changes prior to sending us the fInal signed copy of the contract, Although we have utilized blended rates in the past, we are now incorporating the standard Paul Hastings rates. However, because of the range of attorneys that will be working on this matter, and the number of hours that each attorney will be working, we can assure you that it is unlikely that our bills will exceed a blended rate of $388,00 per hour, The attorney rate structure for Emmert v. Monroe County is: Robert H. Freilich - $605 p/hr. Elisa Paster - $370 p/hr. Derek Howard - $265 p/hr. Paul Hastings AITORNEVS Suzanne Hutton March 23, 2006 Page 2 We anticipate that Derek will be performing over 50% of the work for this matter, while Bob will perform 30% of the work and Elisa will perform 20% of the work. If this division of work is performed, it will result in a blended rate of $388.00 per hour. cc: Robert Shillinger, Esq.
