Good cause exists for the requested extension because the parties are continuing to

16
engage in the meet and confer process as it pertains to the stipulated construction of certain
17
terms. The parties have already agreed that the construction of five identified terms is not required
18
and are hopeful that they may reduce the number of terms requiring construction even further
19
thereby greatly simplifying the requisite briefing by and between the parties and the resources that
20
might otherwise be required of the Court.
21
IT IS SO AGREED AND STIPULATED:
