JOINT STIPULATION FOR ISSUANCE OF WRIT OF ATTACHMENT AND ORDER FOR ISSUANCE OF WRIT OF ATTACHMENT 

CASE NO. C 07-00089 JW HRL 

Goodwin Procter LLP 

101 California St., Suite 1850 

San Francisco, CA 94111 

JOINT STIPULATION FOR ISSUANCE OF RIGHT TO ATTACH ORDER AND ORDER 

FOR ISSUANCE OF WRIT OF ATTACHMENT

Plaintiff Menlo Equities Development Services Company LLC (“MEDSCO”) and Defendant 

Fourth Quarter Properties XLVIII, LLC (“Fourth Quarter”) stipulate as follows: 

1. On January 18, 2007, MEDSCO filed an Application for Right to Attach Order, 

Temporary Protective Order, and Order for Issuance of Writ of Attachment (“Application”) to secure 

recovery on its claims against Fourth Quarter. Specifically, MEDSCO seeks to attach Fourth 

Quarter’s real property located in Sunnyvale, California known as the Town Center Mall, or Block 

18 in downtown Sunnyvale, exclusive of the parcels owned by Macy’s, Target and Bank of the West 

(the “Property”). Fourth Quarter anticipates that its sale of the Property will close on or about March 

31, 2007. 

2. A hearing on MEDSCO’s Application is scheduled for February 26, 2007 at 9:00 a.m. 

before this Court. 

3. In support of its Application, MEDSCO filed an undertaking for $10,000 on January 

3, 2007. 

4. On February 22, 2007, the parties agreed in principle to settle the litigation and 

executed a Term Sheet reflecting their agreement. As part of the settlement, Fourth Quarter will pay 

to MEDSCO $882,000. It is anticipated that Fourth Quarter will make this payment from the 

proceeds of its sale of the Property. 

5. The parties further agreed that an attachment on Fourth Quarter’s Property is 

appropriate to secure the $882,000 pending Fourth Quarter’s sale of the Property. The parties also 

agreed to jointly request the Court to issue a writ of attachment on the Property in the amount of 

$882,000. 

6. Accordingly, the parties stipulate that MEDSCO is entitled to an attachment in the 

amount of $882,000 and request the Court to issue to MEDSCO a Right to Attach Order and Order 

for Issuance of Writ of Attachment. A [Proposed] Right to Attach Order and Order for Issuance of 

Writ of Attachment is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

7. The parties further request that the Court direct the court clerk to issue to MEDSCO a 

Writ of Attachment. A [Proposed] Writ of Attachment is attached hereto as Exhibit B. 

8. The parties stipulate that the February 26, 2007 hearing on MEDSCO’s Application 

be vacated. 

9. Fourth Quarter stipulates that the undertaking Menlo has filed with the Court in the 

statutory amount of $10,000 need not be increased. 

10. MEDSCO stipulates that its application for a Temporary Protective Order is moot, 

and hereby withdraws the request. 

IT IS THEREFORE STIPULATED that, subject to the approval of the Court, the Court will 

issue to MEDSCO a Right to Attach Order and Order for Issuance of Writ of Attachment, and direct 

the court clerk to issue to MEDSCO a Writ of Attachment. It is further stipulated that the February 

26, 2007 hearing on MEDSCO’s Application be vacated.
