S T I P U L A T I O N TO EXTEND T I M E FOR HEARING ON P E N D IN G MOTIONS; ORDER

The parties hereto, through their undersigned counsel of record, hereby stipulate, under Local Rule 6.2, to extend the hearing date for the pending motions (Motion for Default filed by plaintiff Ashanti and Motion to Modify Scheduling Order filed by defendants) currently set for December 3, 2009, for a period of (60) days, to a date in early February 2010 as is convenient for the court's calendar. The reason for the extension is that the parties wish to explore settlement opportunities before significant time and attorneys' fees are incurred in opposing and replying to these motions, which should form the basis of "good cause" for the court to adopt the stipulation as the court's order. /// 1
