of record, hereby stipulate that the hearing on the Motion to Compel be continued until 

May 15, 2013, 10:00 am PST, based on the following: 

1. It is UCC’s understanding that the Parties have reached an Agreement regarding all 

deficiencies relating to the Discovery Requests directed to the Discovery Defendants and that 

UCC would receive all outstanding responses and document productions (aside from the 

Settlement Agreement with Crusader Insurance Company which Links and Kumar agreed to 

produce upon this Court’s Order) by April 29, 2013. 

2. On the evening on April 23, 2013, UCC received an e-mail from the counsel for the 

Discovering Defendants which contained access via Dropbox to what was represented to be 

document production for NTA, Links, (but not Kumar), which consists of approximately 5,500 

pages of documents. Kumar’s outstanding discovery responses are due by April 29, 2013. 

3. Due to the voluminous nature of this recent document production, UCC would like 

to ask this Court to continue the May 1, 2013 hearing on the Motion to Compel to May 15, 

2013, so that UCC can review the documents that have just been produced and the 

documents due early next week, and subsequently confer with the Discovering Defendants 

regarding any deficiencies. The Discovery Defendants do not object to this continuance. 

4. To the extent that any of the deficiencies are cured, UCC will be withdrawing its 

Motion to Compel relating to those deficiencies. 

5. Counsel for the Discovering Defendants has reviewed and approved the wording of 

this stipulation and have authorized UCC’s counsel to submit this stipulation on their behalf. 

SO STIPULATED.
