Accordingly, the application for a temporary restraining order is hereby DENIED.

Further, given the current status of the International’s decision with respect to the

continuance of the instant receivership, the Court finds it appropriate to defer further

briefing on plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction pending issuance of the

International’s decision.

Accordingly, the April 13, 2007 hearing on said motion is hereby VACATED, without

prejudice to plaintiff’s either renoticing the motion or amending and refiling the motion after

the International has rendered its decision.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
