Whereas on March 27, 2007, the Court issued its ruling on Defendants’ request for

reconsideration, which substantially affected the production of documents requested in

discovery, and delayed discovery on depositions and responses to discovery, and further

information required for expert witness testimony;

Whereas the parties agree that remaining depositions have to be coordinated around the

review of numerous documents;

Whereas due to the time required for resolution of the motion for reconsideration, the

dates set forth in the Status (Pretrial Scheduling) Order filed on February 23, 2006 have become

impractical to all parties in that certain discovery could not be conducted;

Whereas the parties agree that current dates should be vacated, and new dates set;

THEREFORE, THE PARTIES, THROUGH THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNSEL,

HEREBY STIPULATE THAT:

Good cause exists in the interests of justice and the costs and burden, not only to the

Parties but to the Court, associated with the discovery of issues that will expedite the litigation

and narrow the issues, the parties agree that modification of the Status (Pretrial Scheduling)

Order is essential to fully meet the requirements of due process to all parties and to expedite the

trial of this matter.

THEREFORE, the parties stipulate and request the Court to issue an order vacating all

dates, and set a status conference to select new dates for the convenience of the Court and in the

interest of justice; or

IN THE ALTERNATIVE, extend the current discovery deadline and subsequent

scheduled dates as follows:

Discovery closed and all discovery motions to be heard and acted upon by August 15,

2007;

Expert disclosures due by August 31, 2007, and expert depositions to be completed by

November 15, 2007;

Dispositive motions to be heard by February 15, 2008;
