Plaintiff AMERIPRIDE SERVICES INC. (“AmeriPride”) and Defendant TEXAS 

EASTERN OVERSEAS, INC. (“TEO”), by and through their respective counsel, stipulate 

to amend their Exhibit Lists, as follows:

RECITALS

1. On July 26, 2016 AmeriPride and TEO filed their Joint Pretrial Statement. 

ECF No. 1050.

2. Pursuant to the requirements of the Court’s Pretrial Scheduling Order, ECF 

No. 988, the Joint Pretrial Statement includes AmeriPride’s list of exhibits AmeriPride 

expects to offer, if necessary, at trial, and TEO’s list of exhibits TEO expects to offer at 

trial. ECF No. 1050 at 78-94 and 104-191.

3. Since filing the Joint Pretrial Statement, AmeriPride and TEO have met and 

conferred in order to reduce the number of potential exhibits that may be offered at trial.

4. The Parties agree that reducing the number of potential exhibits that may be 

offered at trial will streamline the presentation of evidence at trial, and allow for a more 

efficient trial.

5. The Parties respectfully request the Court to allow AmeriPride and TEO each 

to replace the exhibit lists filed with the Joint Pretrial Statement with the amended exhibit 

lists attached hereto as Attachment 1 and Attachment 2.

6. Pursuant to the requirements of the Court’s Pretrial Scheduling Order, ECF 

No. 988, the Joint Pretrial Statement includes undisputed and disputed facts identified as 

relevant by the Parties. ECF No. 1050 at 12-26 (Undisputed Facts) and 27-44 (Disputed 

Facts).

7. After meeting and conferring, the Parties agree that Undisputed Fact No. 143

should be revised in the Final Pretrial Order as follows:

a. “The January 19, 2015 Map prepared by Burns & McDonnell, bearing 

bates stamp number AM061842, as annotated by TEO’s expert Gary 

Hokkanen, and entered as Exhibit 95 to his January 20, 2016 deposition 

is an accurate representation of the locations of buildings, water supply

wells, monitoring wells, remediation wells, other samplings, and other 

relevant structures or locations. Deposition Exhibit 95 is attached hereto 

as Appendix 4.”

8. After meeting and conferring, the Parties agree that certain Disputed Facts 

are not genuinely in dispute, and should be listed as Undisputed Facts as follows:

a. Disputed Facts Nos. 2, 7-13, 54, 84, and 90 are not genuinely in dispute.

9. Good cause exists for the Court to grant the Parties’ request because it will 

(1) facilitate a more efficient trial; (2) encourage efficient pre-trial activities between the 

Parties; (3) will not prejudice the Parties or the Court and will not delay the case; and, (4)

will not alter or affect the Parties’ compliance with any other requirements in the Court’s 

Pretrial Scheduling Order, ECF No. 988.

STIPULATION

Based on the foregoing, the Parties stipulate as follows:

1. AmeriPride respectfully requests the Court replace the exhibit list filed with 

the Joint Pretrial Statement at ECF No. 1050 at 78-94 with the exhibit list attached hereto 

as Attachment 1.

2. TEO respectfully requests the Court replace the exhibit list filed with the Joint 

Pretrial Statement at ECF No. 1050 at 104-191 with the exhibit list attached hereto as 

Attachment 2.

3. The Parties respectfully request the Court include the exhibit lists attached 

hereto as Attachment 1 and Attachment 2 as part of the Court’s Final Pretrial Order in lieu 

of the exhibit lists filed on July 25, 2016 with the Joint Pretrial Statement.

4. The Parties respectfully request the Court revise Undisputed Fact No. 143 in 

the Final Pretrial Order to read as follows: “The January 19, 2015 Map prepared by Burns 

& McDonnell, bearing bates stamp number AM061842, as annotated by TEO’s expert 

Gary Hokkanen, and entered as Exhibit 95 to his January 20, 2016 deposition is an 

accurate representation of the locations of buildings, water supply wells, monitoring wells, 

remediation wells, other samplings, and other relevant structures or locations. Deposition
