STIPULATION AND ORDER TO ENLARGE TIME (C03-3174 VRW)

The parties to the above-entitled action hereby stipulate to extend the time for Plaintiffs to file

their Reply Brief in Support of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification from January 25, 2010, to

February 1, 2010. Good cause exists for this Stipulation because a recent series of storms that have

gone through the Bay Area has had a serious detrimental effect on Plaintiffs’ counsels’ ability to

prepare their reply brief. Attorney Charles S. Ralston, the primary author of Plaintiffs’ Reply Brief, has

experienced several power outages in his area, including an extended power outage that began

Thursday, January 21, 2010 and lasted through Saturday, January 23, 2010. As a result of the power

outage, Attorney Ralston lost access to his computer and files and was unable to work on the brief at

all. Since the hearing date has been vacated, all counsel agree that there is no prejudice to any of the

parties if Plaintiffs file their reply brief on Monday, February 1, 2010.
