ORDER


The pending motions, insofar as they seek consolidation of these actions, are unopposed. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED, as follows:

1. Consolidation.

The above captioned cases are consolidated for pretrial proceedings. This order does not constitute a determination that these actions shall be consolidated for trial, nor does it have the effect of making any entity a party to an action in which it has not been joined and served in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

2. Master Docket and File.

The Clerk will maintain a master docket and case file under the style "In re Salomon Analyst Litigation" as master file number 02 Civ. 3687. Order, pleadings, motions and other documents bearing a caption similar to that of this Order will, when docketed and filed in the master file, be deemed docketed and filed in each individual case to the extent applicable and ordinarily will not be docketed separately or physically filed in such individual cases.

3. Captions; Separate Filing.

Orders, pleadings, motions and other documents will bear a caption similar to that of this Order. If generally applicable to all consolidated actions, they shall include in the caption the notation that they relate to "All Cases" and shall be filed and docketed only in the master file. Documents intended to apply only to particular cases will indicate in their caption the number of the case(s) to which they apply, and extra copies shall be provided to the Clerk to facilitate filing and docketing both in the master case file and in each of the specified individual case files.

4. Lead Plaintiff/Lead Counsel Motions

The Court will hear oral argument on the pending motions with respect to appointment of a lead plaintiff or plaintiffs and of lead counsel on September 4, 2002 at 4:00 p.m. Counsel should be prepared to address, among other issues, whether the holdings of Citigroup and Salomon Smith Barney securities by state pension funds and Private Asset Management ("PAM") warrant the conclusion that either or both of the Comptroller and PAM is not the most adequate lead plaintiff.

SO ORDERED.
