WHEREAS Defendants due date for answering or otherwise responding to the complaint is

May 9, 2005;

WHEREAS at the May 6, 2005, Case Management Conference the Court decided to stay the

case and the Case Management Order filed May 9, 2005, provides that the case is stayed for 60 days;

WHEREAS the parties agree that if Defendants prevail on their view that the case is moot the

case would be dismissed without the need for Defendants to file an answer;

NOW THEREFORE, the parties stipulate that the filing of an answer or other response to the

complaint be stayed until 30 days after a final ruling on whether this case is moot.

Respectfully submitted,
