(2) Within ten days of the second payment, the Parties will file a

scheduled for August 16, 2005) be vacated, and that no new dates be set. The Parties 

anticipate that pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, the case will be voluntarily

dismissed with prejudice prior to the end of August 2005 after both of the required settlement

payments have been made.
