WHEREAS:

1. The pre-trial conference in this matter is currently scheduled to take

place on November 13, 2006 at 11:00 a.m., and the trial on December 12, 2006 at

9:00 a.m.;

2. Defendant Pacific Gas & Electric Company Long Term Disability Plan

(“PG&E”) has filed a motion for summary judgment;

3. PG&E’s motion was initially noticed for hearing on October 2, 2006, but

the Court continued the hearing, on its own motion, to the current date, November 6,

2006, i.e., only one week before the pre-trial conference;

4. The parties believe it would be an inefficient use of their time and

resources, as well as the Court’s, for the parties to prepare and file pre-trial

documents when there is a possibility that the Court will resolve this action at the

hearing on PG&E’s motion;

5. Now, therefore, it is hereby stipulated and agreed, subject to the Court’s

approval, that the Court continue the pre-trial conference and trial dates for a brief

period of approximately 30 days, or to whatever dates are convenient for the Court, to

give the Court time to rule on PG&E’s motion and so that the parties are not required

to prepare and file possibly unnecessary pre-trial documents.
