5. In order to avoid the costs, expense, and uncertainty of protracted litigation, the 

Parties agree to entry of this Order to resolve all claims regarding injunctive relief

proposed Order related to this Consent Decree without trial or further adjudication 

of the issues addressed herein. 

NO DISMISSAL OF ACTION REQUESTED:

WHEREFORE, the Parties hereby agree and stipulate to the Court’s entry of this

Plaintiff’s claims against Defendants and any other parties for injunctive relief that 

have arisen out of the acts and/or omissions alleged, or which could have been 

alleged, in the subject Complaint. 

8. The Parties agree and stipulate that the corrective work will be performed in

negotiation, settlement, litigation, and/or motions to the Court. Should the Parties 

later reach an agreement regarding the Unresolved Issues, the terms of that 

agreement will be set forth in a separate settlement agreement. Nothing set forth 

herein shall be deemed to in any way limit or effect a waiver of either Parties’ past, 

present, or future rights and/or remedies to recover damages, attorneys’ fees, 

litigation expenses, or costs in connection with each of their alleged losses, costs, 

damages, claims, and causes of action as set forth in each of the operative pleadings 

or otherwise.
