                   UNPUBLISHED DECISION ON FEES AND COSTS1

       Petitioner, Marianne Archambo, filed a stipulation of facts concerning final attorneys’
fees and costs in the above-captioned matter on May 2, 2013. Previously, Ms. Arachambo
informally submitted a draft application for attorneys’ fees and costs to respondent for review.
Upon review of petitioner’s application, respondent raised objections to certain items. Based on
subsequent discussions, petitioner amended her application to request $41,590.76, an amount to
which respondent does not object. The Court awards this amount.

        On May 7, 2012, Ms. Arachambo filed for compensation alleging that she was injured by
the influenza vaccine she received. Ms. Arachambo received compensation based upon the
parties’ stipulation. Decision, filed April 29, 2013. Because Ms. Arachambo received
compensation, she is entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and costs. 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(e).

        Ms. Arachambo seeks a total of $41,590.76 in attorneys’ fees and costs for her counsel.
In compliance with General Order No. 9, Ms. Arachambo filed a statement on May 10, 2013
indicating that she incurred no out-of-pocket litigation expenses while pursuing this claim.
Respondent has no objection to the amount requested for attorneys’ fees and costs.
