RECITALS

A. WHEREAS the Court has previously set dates for expert disclosures and for 

dispositive motions;

B. WHEREAS the parties wished to preserve this schedule—particularly dates that 

affect filings with the Court—but accommodate the changes to discovery discussed below;

C. WHEREAS the parties have agreed to Monsanto’s request to change the hearing

date on a pending discovery motion from July 5, 2005 to July 12, 2005;

D. WHEREAS the parties have agreed to reschedule certain depositions of Monsanto 

witnesses until after July 12, 2005 because the scope of these depositions will be affected by the 

Court's ruling on the discovery motion;

E. WHEREAS The Regents believes that it needs the deposition of these witnesses to 

prepare its expert reports concerning willfulness and damages;

STIPULATION AND REQUEST

Accordingly, the parties stipulate and jointly request:

1. That the Court revise the previously ordered dates for disclosure of expert reports 

according to the following schedule (with changes from the previously ordered schedule 

underlined):

(a) July 21: Simultaneous exchange of expert reports on issues for which the 

submitting party bears the burden of proof (with the exception of The Regents’ expert report(s) 

on damages and willfulness).

(b) August 4: Simultaneous exchange of expert reports on issues for which the 

submitting party does not bear the burden of proof and exchange of The Regents’ initial expert 

report(s) on damages and willfulness;.

(c) August 16: Simultaneous exchange of expert rebuttal reports solely to the 

extent that expert reports on August 4 raise new issues not previously disclosed in the July 21 

reports.

(d) August 18: Exchange of Monsanto’s expert report(s) on damages and 

willfulness.
