O R D E R 
 
This 3rd day of May 2012 the Court, having carefully considered the 
decision and judgment of the Court of Chancery dated October 12, 2011, the briefs 
of the parties, and their contentions in oral argument has determined as follows: 
 
* Sitting by designation pursuant to Del. Const. Art. IV § 12. 
2 
 
To the extent that:  (a) the issues raised on appeal are factual, the record 
evidence supports the trial judge’s factual findings; (b) the errors alleged on appeal 
are attributed to an abuse of discretion, the record does not support those 
assertions; (c) the issues raised on appeal are legal, they are controlled by settled 
Delaware law, which was properly applied.  
 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Court of 
Chancery is AFFIRMED.
