KPMG’s Qualifications 6. KPMG is a firm of independent public accountants as defined under the Code of Professional Conduct of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. 7. The Debtors have selected KPMG as their tax consultant because of the firm’s diverse experience and extensive knowledge in the fields of accounting, taxation, and operational controls for large sophisticated companies both in chapter 11 as well as outside of chapter 11. 8. The Debtors have employed KPMG to provide various tax-related service since 2006. By virtue of its prior engagements, KPMG is familiar with the books, records, financial information and other data maintained by the Debtors and is qualified to continue to provide tax consulting to the Debtors. As such, retaining KPMG is an efficient and cost effective manner in which the Debtors may obtain the requisite services. C. Services to be Rendered 9. Subject to further order of the Court, pursuant to the Engagement Letter, KPMG will provide tax consulting services as KPMG and the Debtors shall deem appropriate and feasible to advise the Debtors in the course of these chapter 11 cases, including, but not limited to the following: (a) analysis of any Section 382 issues including: roll-forward of historical section 382 matters and section 382 issues arising in connection with restructuring; analysis of net unrealized built-in gain/net unrealized built- in loss (“NUBIG/NUBIL”) including under Notice 2003-65; analysis under sections 382(l)(5) and (l)(6); analysis of section 382 state tax jurisdictions; (b) Analysis of Debtors’ tax attributes including net operating losses, credits, and tax basis in the stock of its subsidiaries; (c) Analysis of the tax implications of various reorganization structures; (d) Analysis of the deductibility of post-petition interest on unsecured debt obligations; (e) Analysis of the liabilities subject to compromise which could yield a tax deduction or cancellation of indebtedness income; 3 Case 15-10585-LSS Doc 245 Filed 04/21/15 Page 4 of 12 (f) Determination of the amount and location of any cancellation of indebtedness income resulting from a restructuring; (g) Determination of the amount of any cancellation of indebtedness by entity that is attributable to liabilities that would have resulted in a deduction when paid; (h) Analysis of Section 108(b)(5) and 1017(b)(3)(D) elections; (i) Analysis of the tax implications of any internal management reorganizations and proposal of restructuring alternatives; (j) Analysis of any bad debt and worthless stock deductions; (k) Analysis of the tax implications related to the modification or settlement of any third party or intercompany debt; (l) Analysis of the tax implications of any reorganization/bankruptcy plan of reorganization; (m) Track and analyze the bankruptcy schedule of tax liabilities and proof of claims, including those submitted by tax authorities; (n) Analysis of tax impact of any potential dispositions of assets in bankruptcy; (o) Analysis of the transaction costs associated with any potential transactions, including implications of such costs in bankruptcy; (p) Analysis of tax implications of any potential merger/acquisition with third parties; (q) Analysis of the state and local tax implications of the foregoing; and (r) Analysis of the Canadian tax implications associated with any transaction effectuated or contemplated by the Debtors with respect to its current distressed debt position.3 10. In addition to the foregoing, KPMG will provide such other consulting, advice, research, planning, and analysis regarding tax consulting services as may be necessary, desirable or requested from time to time.4 3 For the avoidance of doubt, KPMG will provide services solely to the Debtors and not to any of the Debtors’ non-debtor Canadian affiliates, and KPMG will not be paid by the Debtors to perform services for any of the Debtors’ non-debtor Canadian affiliates. 4 Although, by this Application, the Debtors are seeking to retain KPMG to provide such other consulting, advice, research, planning, analysis regarding tax consulting services as may be necessary, desirable or requested from time to time, internal KPMG procedures require that KPMG enter into additional engagement letters for additional work under certain circumstances. To the extent the Debtors request additional services not covered by 4 Case 15-10585-LSS Doc 245 Filed 04/21/15 Page 5 of 12 11. Subject to this Court’s approval of the Application, KPMG is willing to serve as the Debtors’ tax consultant and to perform the services described above. D. Professional Compensation 12. KPMG’s requested compensation for professional services rendered to the Debtors will be based upon the hours actually expended by each assigned staff member at each staff member’s hourly billing rate. The Debtors have agreed to compensate KPMG for professional services rendered at its normal and customary hourly rates, subject to the reductions discussed below. 13. The majority of fees to be charged in this engagement reflect a reduction of approximately 27% - 44% from KPMG’s normal and customary rates, depending on the types of services to be rendered.5 In the normal course of KPMG’s business, the hourly rates are subject to periodic increase. To the extent such hourly rates are increased, KPMG requests that, with respect to the work to be performed after such increase, the rates listed below be amended to reflect the increase. The hourly rates for tax consulting services to be rendered by KPMG and applicable herein are as follows: Discounted Tax Consulting Services Hourly Rate Partners/Managing Directors/Directors $660 the Engagement Letter, KPMG and the Debtors may enter into additional engagement letters, as is necessary, and file, for disclosure purposes, such additional engagement letters with the Court.

    ATI 302™/ATI 304™/ATI 304L™/ATI 305™ Technical Data Sheet ATI 302™/ATI 304™/ATI 304L™/ATI 305™ Stainless Steel: Austenitic (Chromium-Nickel) (UNS S30200) INTRODUCTION ATI 302™ (S30200), ATI 304™ (S30400), ATI 304L™ (S30403), and ATI 305™ (S30500) stainless steels are variations of the 18 percent chromium – 8 percent nickel austenitic alloy, the most familiar and most frequently used alloy in the stainless steel family. These alloys may be considered for a wide variety of applications where one or more of the following properties are important: 1. Resistance to corrosion 2. Prevention of product contamination 3. Resistance to oxidation 4. Ease of fabrication 5. Excellent formability 6. Beauty of appearance 7. Ease of cleaning 8. High strength with low weight 9. Good strength and toughness at cryogenic temperatures 10. Ready availability of a wide range of product forms Each alloy represents an excellent combination of corrosion resistance and fabricability. This combination of properties is the reason for the extensive use of these alloys which represent nearly one half of the total U.S. stainless steel production. ATI 304 alloy represents the largest volume followed by ATI 304L alloy. ATI 302 and ATI 305 alloys are used in smaller quantities. The 18-8 stainless steels, principally ATI 304 and 304L alloys, are available in a wide range of product forms including sheet, strip, foil and plate from ATI. The alloys are covered by a variety of specifications and codes relating to, or regulating, construction or use of equipment manufactured from these alloys for specific conditions. Food and beverage, sanitary, cryogenic, and pressure-containing applications are examples.
