STIPULATION RE DISMISSAL
WHEREAS, Plaintiffs Travelers Indemnity Company of Illinois and Travelers Property Casualty Company of America (collectively "Travelers") and various defendants to the present action believe it would be more efficient for Travelers to bring its claims against defendants Aqua Proof, Inc., Bay Area Canvas, Inc., B.T.

Albanese, Inc., Milo Masonry, Inc., Morris Steel Company, Inc., Pacific Coast Building Products, Inc. dba Alcal Roofing & Insulation, Ray L. Hellwig Mechanical Company, Inc., Ray L.

Blach Construction Company, et al., Santa Clara County Superior Court, Case No. 109CV149847 (the "Underlying Action"), as opposed to the present action; and
WHEREAS, Travelers is amendable to dismissing the entire action without prejudice including defendants First Specialty Insurance Corporation, Greenwich Insurance Company, Lexington Insurance Company, National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh PA, TIG Insurance Company, Westchester Fire Insurance Company and Clarendon American Insurance Company (collectively the "Carrier Defendants") and re-filing in state court against the Carrier Defendant and intervening in the Underlying Action against the Subcontractor Defendants;
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Travelers and Subcontractor Defendants, by and through their designated counsel, that the present action, in its entirety, shall be dismissed without prejudice pursuant to FRCP 41(a)(3).
