LIMITED OBJECTION OF MIDLAND LOAN SERVICES TO THE MONTHLY APPLICATION OF KIRKLAND & ELLIS LLP FOR COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES AND REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES AS ATTORNEYS FOR THE DEBTORS AND DEBTORS IN POSSESSION FOR THE PERIOD FROM NOVEMBER 1, 2010 THROUGH NOVEMBER 30, 2010 Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, N.A. (Midland)1 hereby files this Limited Objection of Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, N.A. (the Limited Objection) to the Monthly Application of Kirkland & Ellis LLP (Kirkland) for Compensation for Services and Reimbursement of Expenses as Attorneys for the Debtors and Debtors in

Midland is the special servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of August 13, 2007 (the Special Servicing Agreement) for that certain secured loan in the amount of not less than $825,402,542 plus interest, costs and fees (the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan) owed by certain of the above captioned Debtors. The Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan is secured by cross-collateralized and crossdefaulted first priority mortgages, liens and security interests on forty-five (45) hotel properties and their contents and assets related thereto (collectively, the Midland Properties) and the other collateral, including all cash collateral as such term has meaning under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, generated by the Midland Debtors hotel and business operations with respect to the Midland Properties (the Midland Cash Collateral), as set forth in the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement.

D-1926562

Possession for the Period from November 1, 2010 through November 30, 2010 (the November Fee Application),2 and in support thereof, respectfully represents as follows: Preliminary Statement3 1. The November Fee Application should not be approved as filed. Kirkland

charged over $41,841.50 merely monitoring, summarizing, and reviewing the LNR special servicer litigationlitigation to which the Debtors are not parties. The Court should consider whether incurring such amounts was reasonable. 2. Likewise, the Court should consider whether charging over $37,629.77 in fees

and expenses was reasonable for work related to a single motion, the Debtors Motion for Entry of an Order Authorizing the Debtors to Enter into a Premium Financing and Security Agreement With IPFS Credit Corporation (the Insurance Motion).4 3. Finally, the Court should consider whether charging over $116,047.00 in fees and

expenses in November was reasonable for work related solely to responding to objections to the Debtors Motion for the Entry of an Order Pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (I) Approving the Debtors Undertaking to Compensate Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP as Counsel to the Independent Committee of the Board of Trustees of Innkeepers USA Trust and Authorizing the Payment of Such Compensation by the Debtors and (II) Authorizing the Debtors to Compensate the Members of the Independent Committee (the Motion to Pay Fried Frank).5

Background 4. On August 12, 2010, the Court entered its Order Authorizing the Retention and

Employment of Kirkland & Ellis LLP as Attorneys for the Debtor and Debtors in Possession Nunc Pro Tunc to the Petition Date (the Retention Order). Pursuant to the terms of the Retention Order, Kirklands retention was effective as of July 19, 2010. 5. On August 31, 2010, the Court entered its Order Authorizing the Establishment of

Procedures for Interim Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses for Professionals and Official Committee Members (the Fee Procedures Order). Pursuant to the Fee Procedures Order, Notice Parties, as defined in the Fee Procedures Order, must file objections to monthly applications for compensation within twenty (20) days after service of the monthly application for compensation.6 The Fee Procedures Order provides further that nothing in this Order shall affect in any way any special servicers right to object to the use of its cash collateral to fund all or part of the fees and expenses of professionals compensated from the Debtors bankruptcy estates in monthly, interim, or final fee requests nor rule on the appropriateness of such cash collateral use or any entities rights with respect thereto. Fee Procedures Order at p. 7, 10. 6. On December 30, 2010, Kirkland filed its November Fee Application. The

November Fee Application indicated that during November 2010, Kirkland incurred fees of $796,324.00 and expenses of $65,464.72 for a total of $861,788.72. Kirkland requested the payment of $637,059.20 in fees and $65,464.72 in expenses, and corresponding payment of eighty percent (80%) of the fees and one hundred percent (100%) of the expenses. Pursuant to the Fee Procedures Order, objections to the November Fee Application must be filed by January 20, 2011.

Midland is a Notice Party under the Fee Procedures Order.

The use of Midlands Cash Collateral is governed by the Final Order Authorizing

the Debtors to (i) Use the Adequate Protection Parties Cash Collateral and (ii) Provide Adequate Protection to the Adequate Protection Parties Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 361, 362, and 363 dated September 2, 2010 (as amended) (the Final Cash Collateral Order).7 Objection A. Substantial Fees and Expenses Incurred in Connection with Monitoring Litigation to Which the Debtors Are Not Parties Should be Reviewed for Reasonableness 8. Midland objects to the payment of fees and expenses in the amounts requested

related to monitoring, summarizing, discussing, and analyzing the special servicer litigation. Ten different attorneys and three paraprofessionals spent roughly eighty hours and incurred fees of $41,841.50 on this task, which should not have required such attention. A chart showing the selected time entries related to this task is attached to this Limited Objection as Exhibit A. Accordingly, the Court should consider whether incurring such amounts was reasonable. B. Substantial Fees and Expenses Incurred in Connection with the Insurance Motion Should be Reviewed for Reasonableness 9. Midland objects to the payment of fees and expenses in the amounts requested

related to drafting and filing the Insurance Motion, a fairly standard motion in most large cases. While the Insurance Motion was necessary and appropriate, the efforts of three partners, three associates, and one paralegal for over sixty-five hours incurring fees of $37,290.00 are simply disproportionate to the task. The Insurance Motion was not especially complex or difficult, and the charges for these services in November do not even extend past the filing stage of the Insurance Motion. The time entries related to this task are categorized separately in the

November Fee Application under the category of Insurance. Accordingly, the Court should consider whether incurring such amounts was reasonable.

C. Substantial Fees and Expenses Incurred in Connection with Responding to Objections to the Motion to Pay Fried Frank Should be Reviewed for Reasonableness 10. Midland objects to the payment of fees and expenses in the amounts requested for

Kirklands efforts dedicated to responding to objections to the Motion to Pay Fried Frank. Again, while Kirkland can be expected to respond to objections to its motions, the fees incurred are vastly disproportionate to the task. For this task, Kirkland utilized four different partners, eight associates, and five paraprofessionals. Given how many people were involved in this task, it is unsurprising that Kirkland quickly incurred fees of $116,047.00 almost entirely in the first ten days of November. A chart showing the selected time entries related to this task is attached to this Limited Objection as Exhibit B. incurring such amounts was reasonable. D. Kirkland is Only Entitled to Interim Payment for Reasonable Fees and Expenses 11. Section 330(a)(1) of title 11 of the United States Code (the Bankruptcy Code) Accordingly, the Court should consider whether

permits the Court to award reasonable compensation to an applicant based on the actual and necessary services provided by the applicant and to reimburse the applicant for the actual and necessary expenses incurred by the applicant. See 11 U.S.C 330(a)(1). When determining the reasonableness of fees under section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, courts look to whether the services provided are reasonably likely to benefit the debtors estate. In re Angelika Films 57th Inc., 227 B.R. 29, 42 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 1998); see also Stalnaker v. DLC, Ltd. and DLC Family Trust, Ltd. (In re DLC, Ltd.), 295 B.R. 593, 608-09 (B.A.P. 8th Cir. 2003) (fees may be awarded for services that are reasonably likely to benefit the debtors estate and beneficial at the time at which the service was rendered). 12. situations. Section 330(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code prohibits compensation in certain See 11 U.S.C. 330(a)(4). Section 330(a)(4) prohibits compensation for (i)
5

D-1926562

unnecessary duplication of services; and (ii) services that were not reasonably likely to benefit the debtors estate or necessary to the administration of the case. 11 U.S.C. 330(a)(4). To the extent a request for compensation is not per se prohibited under section 330(a)(4), section 330(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code provides six (6) non-exclusive factors for the courts consideration in evaluating requests for compensation. 11 U.S.C. 330(a)(3). These factors include: (i) the time spent on such services; (ii) the rates charged for such services; (iii) whether the services were necessary to the administration of, or beneficial at the time at which the service was rendered toward the completion of, a case under this title; (iv) whether the services were performed within a reasonable amount of time commensurate with the complexity, importance, and nature of the problem, issue, or task addressed; (v) with respect to a professional person, whether the person is board certified or otherwise has demonstrated skill and experience in the bankruptcy field; and (vi) whether the compensation is reasonable based on the customary compensation charged by comparably skilled practitioners in cases other than cases under this title. 11 U.S.C. 330(a)(3). 13. Further, the fee applicant bears the burden of proof on his claim for

compensation. Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin Capital v. High River Ltd. P'ship, 369 B.R. 111, 115 (S.D.N.Y. 2007); see also Gardere & Wynn v. Turoff (In re Hunt), 196 B.R. 356, 359 (N.D. Tex. 1996); In re Gillett Holdings, Inc., 137 B.R. 462, 471 (Bankr. D. Colo. 1992). Accordingly, an application for compensation and reimbursement of expenses must demonstrate that the professionals services were necessary and made a beneficial contribution to the estate or its creditors. In re Engel, 124 F.3d 567, 573 (3d Cir. 1997).

D-1926562

General Reservation of Rights 14. Midland reserves its right to submit additional objections to the compensation

requested by Kirkland when Kirkland submits interim and final fee applications. The failure to raise additional objections at this time is not a wavier of any additional objections thereto. Local Rule 9013-1(a) 15. This pleading includes citations to the applicable rules and statutory authorities

upon which relief requested herein is predicated and a discussion of their application to this pleading. Accordingly, Midland submits that this pleading satisfies Local Bankruptcy Rule 9013-1(a). WHEREFORE, Midland respectfully requests that the Court enter an order (i) sustaining this Limited Objection; (ii) substantially reducing the compensation requested under the November Fee Application; and (iii) granting Midland such other and further relief as is equitable and just.
