Close of Expert Discovery: May 31, 2007

Last Day to File Dispositive Motions: June 8, 2007

Last Day to Hear Dispositive Motions: July 20, 2007

Pretrial Conference: September 7, 2007

Trial: October 2, 2007

2. On January 22, 2007, the parties participated in a mediation session with Martin 

Quinn of JAMS in San Francisco. The parties were unable to reach a settlement at that time, but 

subsequently scheduled a further mediation session with Mr. Quinn for June 14, 2007. 

3. To enable the parties to devote their resources to settlement discussions, the 

parties stipulated to, and on May 31, 2007, the Court issued an order approving, an extension of 

deadlines for the close of expert discovery, and for filing and hearing dispositive motions, as 

follows: 

Close of Expert Discovery: June 26, 2007

Last Day to File Dispositive Motions: June 29, 2007

Last Day to Hear Dispositive Motions: August 10, 2007

The Pretrial Conference date of September 7, 2007, and Trial Date of October 2, 2007, were not 

affected by this Order. 

4. In light of progress made during the further mediation session conducted by Mr. 

Quinn on June 14, 2007, Mr. Quinn has recommended, and the parties have agreed, that the 

prospects for settlement will be aided by a further order adjusting the pretrial schedule as follows:

Revised Deadline for Close of Expert Discovery: July 17, 2007

Revised Last Day to File Dispositive Motions: July 20, 2007

Revised Last Day to Hear Dispositive Motions: August 31, 2007

Revised Date for Pretrial Conference: September 14, 2007

The parties suggest the proposed Revised Date for Pretrial Conference in order to provide more 

time between the hearing on dispositive motions and the pretrial conference. The Trial Date of 

October 2, 2007 would not be affected by this order, if granted.

5. Except as set forth herein, there have been no modifications to or extensions of
