STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

Case No. C 09-1001 (SI) 

RECITALS 

1. Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint on November 17, 

2009. Doc. 51. Thereafter, the defendants filed motions to dismiss. See Docs. 61 - 65 filed 

Jan. 15, 2010.

2. Rather than oppose the motions to dismiss, the Plaintiffs sought to file an 

amended complaint. The parties ultimately stipulated to the filing of an amended 

complaint, and to adjusting the briefing and hearing schedule so that both the hearing on the 

motions to dismiss and the next case management conference would be heard on April 16, 

2010 (with the motions at 9 a.m. and the case management conference at 2:30 p.m.). The 

Court made this stipulation an order. See Doc. 67-68, filed Jan. 29 and Feb. 1, 2010. 

3. On April 1, 2010, the parties filed a stipulation and proposed order 

requesting, inter alia, that the hearing on the motions to dismiss be heard on April 23, 2010 

at 9:00 a.m. See Doc. 80. 

4. The parties to the related derivative action, No. C-09-4963-SI (the 

Derivative Action), also intend to file forthwith a stipulation and proposed order requesting 

that the case management conference in the Derivative Action (currently set for April 16, 

2010 at 2:30 p.m.) be continued to April 23, 2010. 

5. The parties agree that it makes sense to postpone the case management 

conference in this action (currently set for April 16, 2010 at 2:30 p.m.), so that it occurs on 

April 23, 2010, the same day as the hearing on the motions to dismiss and the case 

management conference in the Derivative Action. 

STIPULATION 

THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by and between the undersigned 

counsel for the parties herein and the parties hereby respectfully request that the Court 

continue the Case Management Conference currently set for April 16, 2010 at 2:30 p.m. 

until April 23, 2010, at 2:30 p.m.
