315(b), filed a petition with the Court under title III of PROMESA.

Puerto Rico (“ERS”), by and through the Oversight Board, as ERS’s representative pursuant to

through the Oversight Board, as PREPA’s representative pursuant to PROMESA section 315(b), 

filed a petition with the Court under title III of PROMESA.

6. Through Orders of this Court, the Commonwealth, COFINA, HTA, ERS, and 

PREPA Title III Cases (together, the “Title III Cases”) are jointly administered for procedural 

purposes only, pursuant to PROMESA section 304(g) and Bankruptcy Rule 1015 [ECF Nos. 242, 

537, 1417].

7. This application seeks allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses 

incurred by AWLLAW solely in connection with the COFINA related matters described below.

COMPENSATION REQUESTED

8. AAFAF retained AWLLAW pursuant to an engagement letter dated July 31, 2017 

(the “Engagement Letter”). Pursuant to the Engagement Letter, payment of all fees and expenses 

detailed in this Application will be made exclusively by AAFAF.

9. AWLLAW’s hourly rates are set at a level designed to compensate AWLLAW

fairly for the work of its attorneys and are disclosed in detail in the Engagement Letter. 

10. AWLLAW’s rates are appropriate for complex corporate, securities, litigation, and 

restructuring matters, whether in court or otherwise. The rates and rate structure reflect that such

complex matters typically involve great complexity, high stakes, and intense time pressures. 

Further, there have not been any rate increases during the Compensation Period. AWLLAW

submits that the compensation requested is reasonable in light of the nature, extent, and value of 

such services provided to AAFAF.

11. During the Compensation Period, AWLLAW did not receive any payments or 

promises of payment from any other source for services rendered or to be rendered in any capacity 

whatsoever in connection with the matters covered by this Application. There is no agreement or 

understanding between AWLLAW and any other person for sharing of compensation to be 

received for services rendered in these cases.

SUMMARY OF SERVICES

the Debtors in connection with the Title III Cases. Detailed descriptions of the specific services 

provided and the time expended performing such services are attached as Exhibit B, and a 

summary of the services AWLLAW provided to the Debtors during the Compensation Period is

“Matter Category”) used by its co-counsel law firm, O’Melveny & Myers LLP (“OMM”), for 

keeping time records of the work performed for the Debtors. The following is a summary, by
