shown in the Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A.

obtaining approval by the CDC.
B. The Firm agrees to document a plan and budget consistent with the scope

the Firm. The CDC shall not be obligated to pay the Firm amounts not discussed,
budgeted, and agreed to before being incurred by the Firm.
C. The CDC has appropriated or otherwise duly authorized the payment of an

agreed otherwise:
(1) Word Processing, clerical or secretarial charges, whether expressed

(2) Storage of open or closed files, rent, electricity, local telephone,
postage, receipts or transmission of telecopier documents, or any other items traditionally
associated with overhead.
(3) Photocopy charges in excess of $.10 (ten cents) per page.
(4) Auto mileage rates in excess of the rate approved by the Internal

(5) Secretarial overtime. Where case requirements demand overtime,

known in advance.
(6) Equipment, books, periodicals, research materials, Westlaw/Lexis
or like items.
(7) Express charges, overnight mail charges, messenger services or the
like, without the CDC's prior consent. The CDC expects these expenses to be incurred in
emergency situations only. Where case necessity requires the use of these services, the
CDC will consider reimbursement on a case -by -case basis.
(8) Travel and meals.
(9) Late payment charge and/or interest. Due to the nature of the
CDC's payment process, the CDC will not pay any late charges or interest charges to
bills. Every effort will be made to pay bills promptly.

1243 National City Boulevard, National City, CA 91950-4301. The individual time and
disbursement records customarily maintained by the Firm for billing evaluation and

one -month period of services under this Agreement, and the CDC agrees to compensate

attorney hours and client disbursements which have been incurred to date under this
Agreement, and as to future expected levels of hours and disbursements.

Neither will the CDC pay for outside expenses such as messenger delivery fees,
outside photocopying, videotaping of depositions, investigative services, outside
computer litigation support services, or overnight mail.
I. Staffing. Every legal matter should have a primarily responsible attorney
and a paralegal assigned. Ultimately, staffing is a CDC decision, and the CDC's representative
may review staffing to insure that it is optimal to achieve the goals of the engagement at the least
cost.

engagement, that person should continue on the legal matter until the matter is concluded
