On August 18, 2006, this Court conducted a case management conference.

At that conference, counsel for the defendant Foss Maritime Company ("Foss") stated that

Foss intended to file a motion for summary judgment. The Court suggested Foss reserve a

hearing date for the proposed motion, and the hearing date of December 1, 2006 was

reserved. At the case management conference, the Court scheduled a further case

management conference for the afternoon of December 1, 2006, to address any matters and

claims remaining after the summary judgment hearing.

Counsel for Foss noticed the deposition of New NGC, Inc. ("NGC") for

September 29, 2006. That deposition was continued to October 17, 2006, at the request of

NGC. In the interim, counsel for NGC was selected to serve on a jury. That jury service

requires counsel to be out of the office on October 17, 2006 and unavailable for deposition.

Because of NGC's counsel's jury duty, NGC has requested a second

continuance of the deposition of NGC's representative. Counsel for Foss has proposed the

dates of October 30, 31 or November 1, 2006. Counsel for NGC is confirming NGC's

availability for those dates. In order to make a timely filing for the December 1, 2006

hearing date, Foss must file its motion for summary judgment by October 27, 2006. If the

deposition is continued to the week of October 30, 2006, Foss will not be able to complete

the deposition of NGC and obtain a transcript prior to the filing deadline. Foss has agreed

to the second continuance of the deposition of the current hearing date of December I" and

the date of the case Management conference can also be continued. The Court has advised

counsel that the next available hearing date is January 5, 2007.

IT IS STIPULATED BY THE PARTIES AND REQUESTED that the Court

reserve January 5, 2007 for a hearing on Foss' motion for summary judgment and continue

the further case management conference until that date.
