On May 5, 2010, the Brazilian Sugar Cane Industry Association (“UNICA”) moved to appear

as amicus curiae in the above-titled actions. Because the pending motions to dismiss in the actions are

set to be heard on May 26, 2010, this Court SETS the following expedited briefing schedule on Unica’s

motion to appear as amicus curiae:

1. All parties, including plaintiffs, defendants, and intervenor defendants, must file either

a statement of non-opposition or an opposition to Unica’s motion no later than May 12,

2010.

2. If any party opposes Oregon’s motion to appear amicus curiae, Oregon shall file a reply,

if any, no later than May 17, 2010.

3. No hearing shall be set on this motion, unless the Court deems otherwise.

The Court DIRECTS the clerk of court to file this order on the docket of both cases appearing in the

caption of this order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 6, 2010 /s/ Lawrence J. O'Neill
