 WHEREAS, in the period following February 22, 2010, the Parties participated in mediation

 WHEREAS, the parties have continued to engage in settlement discussions and are 

continuing to work on a resolution of this matter;

additional expenses for, among other matters, the briefing of summary judgments, to meet the

respective counsel, that the Court set the hearing date for any summary judgment motions to a date
