14         On page 3, between lines 25 and 26,

15

16  insert:

17         (4)  Except when a trustee's interest may be adverse in

18  a particular matter, the attorney shall give reasonable notice

19  in writing to the trustee of the attorney's retention by an

20  interested person and the attorney's entitlement to fees

21  pursuant to this section. A court may reduce any fee award for

22  services rendered by the attorney before the date of actual

23  notice to the trustee, if the actual notice date is later than

24  a date of reasonable notice. In exercising this discretion,

25  the court may exclude compensation for services rendered after

26  the reasonable notice date but before the date of actual

27  notice.
