1.

This coverage action by Seneca arises out of three underlying actions filed

6 in the San Francisco Superior Court: Joshua Rodgers v. Kink Com., etc., et al.; identified

7 as case no. CGC-15-54 7036 ("Rodgers"); Cameron Adams v. Kink, etc., et al.; identified
8 as case no. CGC-15-547035 ("Adams''); and John Doe v. Kink Com., etc., et al.;
9 identified as case no . CGC-15-545540 ("Doe'').

All three underlying actions have

10 settled.

2.

The parties agree that Seneca's present action against the Cybernet

12 Defendants should be dismissed with prejudice, under Fed.R.Civ.P. 41(a)(l)(A)(ii), each
13 party to bear its own attorneys' fees and costs.
