STIPULATION On October 29, 2009, the Court referred this case to mediation to be completed on or before the presumptive 90-day deadline following the Court's referral order, i.e., on or before January 27, 2010. The ADR Clerk appointed Rebecca Westerfield as mediator on November 10, 2009. At the November 20, 2009 Case Management Conference, the Court ordered the Parties to appear at a further Case Management Conference on January 22, 2010 at 8:30 a.m. After a premediat ion phone conference, this case was scheduled for mediation on January 26, 2010, the earliest date convenient for all parties, counsel and the mediator. Because the next Case Management Conference is scheduled to occur before the mediation will be commenced, and the mediation is currently scheduled to begin only one day before the deadline to complete mediation expires, the parties stipulate and agree that: The time within which the parties are required to conduct mediation be extended from January 27, 2010 to up to and including February 26, 2010 and that the Further Case Management Conference calendared for January 22 2010, be continued until at least 30 days after the scheduled mediation, i.e., either on February 26, 2010 or March 5, 2010. Dated: January 6, 2010 GORDON & REES LLP
