EXHIBIT_C_-_REIMBURSABLE_EXPENSES.pdf

This document is Exhibit C of a Request for Proposal (RFP No. RTM RFP 25-002) issued by the City of Phoenix Retirement Department for Local Board Legal Counsel Services. The exhibit specifically details a comprehensive expense code set that outlines the types of reimbursable expenses that can be claimed under the proposed legal services contract.

The expense codes are derived from the American Bar Association's standard expense categorization and include 24 distinct expense types ranging from basic administrative costs like copying (E101) and delivery services (E107) to more specialized legal expenses such as court fees (E112), deposition transcripts (E115), litigation support vendors (E118), expert witness fees (E119), and arbitrator/mediator costs (E121). The expense codes provide a structured framework for tracking and approving various direct costs associated with legal services, ensuring transparency and standardized accounting for the retirement department's legal counsel.
