POWER PROJECT UNIT 4, LLC (collectively, the “STAD Defendants”) respectfully request

9

that the Court extend the time for the STAD Defendants to respond to the Amended Complaint,

10

filed on October 4, 2011 (ECF No. 102) and served on the STAD Defendants on October 7, 2011,

11

by one week from November 14, 2011 to November 21, 2011.

12

On November 4, the parties requested, and this Court granted, a one-week extension of

13

time for Defendants to respond to the Amended Complaint from November 7 to November 14,

14

2011 because the parties were in advanced stages of settlement discussions. The parties have

15

made significant progress in settlement discussions during the last week and expect to execute a

16

settlement agreement forthwith. Because the parties ask only for another one-week extension, the

17

parties’ request will have a de minimis, if any, impact on the schedule. In the interests of judicial

18

economy, the parties therefore request that Court extend the STAD Defendants’ time to respond

19

to the Amended Complaint by one week from November 14, 2011 to November 21, 2011.
