JOINT STATUS REPORT AND

[PROPOSED] ORDER TO STAY

PROCEEDINGS FOR 15 DAYS

In an order dated March 23, 2006, the Court endorsed a stipulation signed by all parties to

stay the proceedings in this case to allow the parties to discuss settlement. In paragraph 4 of that

stipulation, the parties agreed to provide the Court with a joint status report if a settlement

agreement was not filed within 90 days. Pursuant to that provision, the parties, by and through

their undersigned counsel, state that they have agreed upon the terms of a settlement and are in the

process of obtaining approval to file the agreement with the Court. The proposed settlement will

dismiss all of Plaintiffs’ claims. Accordingly, the parties respectfully request the Court to stay all

proceedings in this case for another 15 days to allow the parties to file a settlement agreement with

the Court.
