WHERAS, on November 16, 2007, this Court entered an order granting the request of the

WHEREAS, the parties in the present matter have met and conferred, and anticipate that 

motions for the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel will be filed in this case, and that a 

consolidated complaint will be filed after the Court issues an Order appointing lead plaintiff and lead

have sixty (60) days after being served with the anticipated consolidated complaint to answer or 

otherwise respond to the consolidated complaint; 

WHEREAS, the agreed-upon schedule is not for the purpose of delay, promotes judicial 

efficiency, and will not cause prejudice to any party.
