STIPULATION & [PROPOSED] ORDER RE PAGE LIMITS 

 1 CASE NO. C 09-03780-SI 

Plaintiff Anschutz Corporation (“Plaintiff”) and Defendant Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. 

(“DBSI”) by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:

WHEREAS, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint (“FAC”), asserting 11 causes of 

action, on March 19, 2010; 

WHEREAS, the Court issued its order denying DBSI’s motion to transfer venue pursuant 

to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) on April 13, 2010; 

WHEREAS, the parties previously stipulated and the Court ordered that if DBSI’s motion 

to transfer was denied, DBSI would have 30 days to answer or otherwise respond to Plaintiff’s 

operative pleading; 

WHEREAS, the FAC asserts federal securities fraud, California securities fraud, and 

common law fraud claims against DBSI in connection with auction-rate securities (“ARS”) – 

financial instruments that pay interest at rates set a periodic auctions; 

WHEREAS, the FAC alleges over the course of 271 paragraphs and 87 pages that DBSI 

engaged in a comprehensive scheme to defraud Plaintiff by (a) failing to disclose material facts 

about ARS and (b) manipulated the market for ARS in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 and in violation of Sections 25500, 25501 and 25504.1 of 

the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, which also allegedly constitutes common law 

fraud;

WHEREAS, the parties agree that the FAC’s scope and complexity warrant a modest 

increase in the page limit set by Local Rule 7-4(b) for DBSI’s opening brief and Plaintiff’s 

opposition to DBSI’s’ motion to dismiss, but that the page limit for DBSI’s reply brief shall 

remain 15 pages (exclusive of title pages, indices of cases, table of contents, and exhibits); 

IT IS THEREFORE STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between Plaintiff and DBSI, 

acting through their respective counsel, subject to this Court’s approval, as follows: 

1. DBSI’s memorandum of law in support of its motion to dismiss, which is due on 

or before May 13, 2010, shall not exceed 35 pages in length (exclusive of title pages, indices of 

cases, table of contents, and exhibits); and
