1. On September 30, 2011, the United States District Court, Northern District of

California, through counsel for Dillon, issued the subpoena attached hereto as Exhibit A to 

Borel. Borel thereafter timely served objections.

2. Following a reasonable search and investigation, Borel has located documents in

accounts in the name of IAG 1031, LLC (“IAG 1031”) responsive to the subpoena. Dillon is 

not a signatory to the IAG 1031 accounts at Borel, but asserts that he (as the Receiver for Vesta, 

the successor of IAG 1031) owns all right, title and interest to said accounts. In addition, Dillon 

asserts that certain signatories to the IAG 1031 account have agreed that the IAG 1031 

documents may be released to Dillon.

3. Borel desires to comply in good faith with its obligations to respond to the 

subpoena, and its obligations to its account holders. As a result, and for the reasons stated 

herein, Dillon and Borel agree as follows:

a. Borel shall send written notice (the “Written Notice”) containing the 

subpoena, this Stipulation and [Proposed] Order for Production of Documents and a 

statement that Borel intends to produce documents responsive to the subpoena, absent an 

objection or motion to quash, by U.S. Mail to the last known address of IAG 1031 and 

the last known address of the signatories of the IAG 1031 accounts. The signatories on 

the IAG 1031 accounts (the “IAG 1031 Signatories”) are Robert Estupinian, Ginny 

Hillig (a/k/a Ginny Estupinian), Peter Ye and Sarah Gaus. Within 5 days of the 

execution and filing of this Order, Dillon will serve the executed and filed Order on IAG 

1031 and the IAG 1031 Signatories. 

b. If there is no objection in writing or motion to quash filed and served 

within the latter of 15 days after the date of the Written Notice or 5 days after service of 

the Order as specified in 3.a, Borel is authorized to produce said documents to Dillon’s 

attorney of record.

c. If there is an objection in writing or a motion to quash filed and served 

within the time frames specified in 3.b., Borel need not produce such documents unless 

and until said objection is resolved between IAG 1031, the IAG 1031 Signatories or the

objecting entity or person, on the one hand, and Dillon on the other hand, via motion or 

otherwise, in a manner that authorizes Borel to produce such documents.

4. Upon the production of documents pursuant to this Stipulation and Order, Dillon 

shall maintain the confidentiality of the documents and information therein and shall use the 

documents and information for no purpose other than this action and shall not disclose the 

documents outside of this action. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
