Plaintiff CARL R. WRIGHT (“Wright”) and Defendant RBC CAPITAL MARKETS

CORPORATION (“RBC”), through their respective counsel of record, enter into the following

Stipulation with reference to the following facts:

A. RBC filed a Motion to Dismiss or Stay Plaintiff’s First Amended Complaint (“Motion

To Dismiss”). That motion presently is scheduled to be heard by this Court on April 9, 2010.

B. Wright filed a Counter-Motion for Determination that Defendants Cannot Pursue

Arbitration of Class Claims (“Counter-Motion”). That counter-motion presently is scheduled to be

heard by this Court on April 9, 2010.

C. William P. Torngren, co-counsel for Wright, has experienced unanticipated matters

relating to the health of family members. Those matters include:

(1) From March 16-18, 2010, I was in San Francisco for my wife’s initial

appointments and testing for enrollment in a clinical study relating to the treatment of hypoparathyroidism. The appointments and tests took longer than expected and required that we

stay in San Francisco until they were completed around 1:30 p.m. on March 18.

(2) On the drive home from San Francisco, I was told that my mother had been

ambulanced and admitted to Mercy General Hospital with extreme abdominal pain, which

was diagnosed to be panacreatitis. As of Monday, March 22, 2010, no discharge date was

set. She had not had any solid foods other than gelatin and ice cream. She was to be

evaluated by a physical therapist. She is 85 years old, has a degenerative muscle disease,

and lives alone. I will be responsible for getting her home and making arrangements for and

participating in her care until she rebuilds her strength. I expect that she will be discharged

sometime during the week of March 22, 2010.

D. The parties agreed to request that the Court enter the following Stipulation to

accommodate my tending to matters relating to the health of my family members.

STIPULATION

1. The parties agree and stipulate that the hearing on the Motion To Dismiss and CounterMotion will be continued to a date set by the Court.
