INSURANCE COMPANY that: 

1. Pursuant to Civil L.R. 3-12(a), the action entitled Citi Apartments, Inc. et al v. 

Markel Insurance Company, United States District Court for the Northern District of California, 

San Francisco Division, Case No. C 06-07086 (“the Moninger Coverage Action”) is related to 

the above-captioned case; 

2. The Moninger Coverage Action concerns the same Defendant and several of the 

same Plaintiffs as the above captioned case; the Plaintiffs and Defendant in the Moninger

Coverage Action are represented by the same Plaintiffs’ Counsel and Defense Counsel as in the 

above-captioned case; and the Moninger Coverage Action concerns many of the same 

substantive issues as in the above-captioned case. 

3. It appears likely that there will be an unduly burdensome duplication of labor and 

expense or conflicting results if the Moninger Coverage Action and the above-captioned case are 

conducted before different Judges; and 

4. Accordingly, the Moninger Coverage Action shall be reassigned to Judge Claudia 

Wilken, the Assigned Judge for the above-captioned case. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
