The undersigned parties, through their attorneys of record, stipulate to the entry of an order modifying the Pretrial Preparation Order, filed July 25, 2008 ("Pretrial Preparation Order") as follows for the reasons stated below: RECITALS A. The parties have diligently litigated this case since its inception. They have served

written discovery, and begun depositions, including the deposition of plaintiff Andrew Cohen. Because plaintiff's counsel has been in trial for the past few months, the parties have been unable to complete discovery tasks, including the critical deposition of the person most knowledgeable at GoDaddy, Inc., that they deem necessary for adequate preparation of this case for trial and to file a dispositve motion. Plaintiff's counsel expects to be unavailable until the middle of November, well after the October 31, 2008 deadline to file dispositive motions. Consequently, In light of these difficulties, counsel agree that the current discovery cutoff and dispositive motion dates are unworkable, and have stipulated and request the Court to allow additional time to file a motion for summary judgment that may dispose of this action. Additionally, because counsel for the City will be on paternity leave in late January and early February, the parties have stipulated to moving the hearing date on the motion until after the City counsel's paternity leave and to a date that will allow counsel sufficient time to file a reply memorandum in support of the City's motion. B. The parties wish to modify the Pretrial Preparation Order to allow them to complete

necessary discovery, including meaningful expert designations. AGREEMENT For the foregoing reasons, the parties stipulate to entry of an order as follows: The following discovery-related and dispositive motion deadlines shall be modified as follows: Event 1. Dispositive motions filed 2. Dispositive motions heard 3. Further Case Management Conference Statement 2
