MEMORANDUM
MERHIGE, Bankruptcy Judge.This matter is before the Court on the motion of Cochrane & Bresnahan, P.A., by John A. Cochrane (“Mr.Cochrane”), for Reinstatement of Attorneys Fees (Docket No. 23008). For the reasons which follow, the Court will DENY the motion.
*780I.
On March 1, 1995, this Court entered an Order Disallowing Unreasonable Attorneys Fees On Pro Rata Distribution (the “March 1 Order”). Paragraph 2 of that Order prohibits counsel for Daikon Shield personal injury claimants from “charging or receiving, directly or indirectly, any compensation or fees, based upon or out of any pro rata distribution received by a Daikon Shield Personal Injury Claimant from the Trust ... in excess of ten percent of such pro rata distribution.” This Court rejected all challenges to its jurisdiction to enter the March 1 Order. This ruling was unanimously affirmed by the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in In re A.H. Robins Co. (Order Limiting Attorneys Fees), 182 B.R. 128 (Bkrtcy.E.D.Va.1995), aff'd, 86 F.3d 364 (4th Cir.1996).
The March 1 Order also prescribed a procedure to be followed by any attorneys or firms who objected to the disallowance and wished the Court to consider reinstating fees above the ten percent limit. The procedure included the requirement that such motions to reinstate fees be filed with the Court no later than April 17, 1995. The Order gave notice of the opportunity for argument and an evidentiary hearing before the Court. On April 28, 1995, Mr. Cochrane appeared before the Court and presented evidence in support of his Motion For Reinstatement Of Attorneys Fees. However, having stayed the proceedings on all of the individual motions to reinstate fees during the pendency of the appeal to the Fourth Circuit (Docket No. 23514), this Court never addressed the merits of Mr. Cochrane’s Motion.
Following the unsuccessful appeal to the Fourth Circuit, this Court entered an Order, dated September 17, 1996, addressing the sixty-two motions to reinstate fees still pending before the Court. (Docket No. 29532). That Order directed certain movants to file their proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law in support of their motions to reinstate fees by November 1, 1996. Mr. Cochrane made a timely submission and the matter is now ripe for disposition.1
II.
Mr. Cochrane is an attorney from Saint Paul, Minnesota, who has been involved in this case since 1983 — two years before A.H. Robins Company, Inc. (“A.H. Robins”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. In addition to his involvement in pre-petition lawsuits, Mr. Cochrane was also instrumental in the consolidation of the thousands of civil actions filed against A.H. Robins into a single class action lawsuit as well as in obtaining sufficient funding for the payment of all outstanding claims. Thus, the Court is more than satisfied that Mr. Cochrane has performed more work per client than an attorney who only represented claimants after the bankruptcy. In some instances, therefore, it is possible that Mr. Cochrane received the same compensation as a post-bankruptcy attorney, even though he assumed a greater risk and performed more work.
While the Court recognizes and appreciates Mr. Cochrane’s significant contributions to the success of this endeavor, the Court nevertheless finds that his protracted involvement does not constitute the type of “extenuating circumstances” that this Court has held to be required in order for an attorney or firm to be entitled to a fee of more than ten percent. See In re A.H. Robins Co. (Order Limiting Attorneys Fees), 182 B.R. at 138. In reaching this conclusion, the Court is guided by the Fourth Circuit’s ruling that the pro rata payment is a “bonus” that is paid over and above the amount of an individual’s full settlement of a claim. See Robins, 86 F.3d at 369-70, 375. Moreover, this Court has determined that the availability of pro rata payments did not result from the legal efforts of counsel, but from the effective management of the Trust. See In re A.H. Robins Co. (Order Limiting Attorney Fees), 182 B.R. at 136. Accordingly, when considering pro rata fees, this Court’s focus is not on an attorney’s efforts on the underlying claim, but on the efforts required for the client to receive the pro rata payment.*7812 In the instant case, the mere fact that Mr. Cochrane has, as compared to other Daikon Shield attorneys, expended more resources in obtaining the maximum settlement for his clients, does not entitle him to charge a higher fee for the ministerial task of forwarding his clients their pro rata distributions.
m.
The Court finds that Mr. Cochrane has failed to present the type of “extraordinary ease” or “extenuating circumstances” that would justify relief from the Court’s March 1, 1995 Order. See id. at 138, 140 n. 15. In the absence of such a showing, the ten percent fee is “not only reasonable, but overly generous.” Robins, 86 F.3d at 377. Mr. Coch-rane’s motion will therefore be DENIED.
. The Daikon Shield Claimants Trust takes no position with respect to Mr. Cochrane's present motion.
. See In re A.H. Robins Co. (Order Limiting Attorney Fees), 182 B.R. at 135 ("[T]he reasonableness of fees charged against a claimant's underlying recovery from the Trust and the reasonableness of fees charged against a claimant's pro rata payment [are two distinct issues]. In reviewing the reasonableness of fees, there is a critical distinction between a claimant’s underlying recovery on a Daikon Shield claim and her subsequent receipt of a pro rata payment.”).
