The parties have met and conferred further as directed by the Court’s order on Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel (Dkt. 365). The parties have resolved the remaining issues and Plaintiffs hereby withdraw the pending motion to compel. The parties’ agreements are as follows:

(1) LSW’s response to Document Request No. 125: LSW has agreed to elect, by the close of business on January 15, 2013, one of the following document search efforts. LSW will either:

(a) conduct an electronic search of data collected from its custodians for documents containing either (1) the phrase “lapse check,” or (ii) the phrases ““*regression’ and ‘lapse’” within a single document. LSW would then produce all non-privileged documents identified by (1.e., that are “hits” in) such a search; or,

(b) ask its custodians whether they either (i) have in their possession, custody, or control, or (i1) have previously seen documents discussing analyses of Paragon or Provider illustrations with respect to lapse, including but not limited to documents that substantively discuss “lapse checks” or regression analysis in regards to lapse (as discussed in LSW-E00067995). LSW’s custodians will be provided with a copy of LSW-E00067995 for purposes of clarity. If any of LSW’s custodians have such documents in their possession, custody, or control, LSW will produce non-privileged documents to Plaintiffs. If LSW’s custodians have previously seen such documents, but no longer have them in their possession, custody, or control, LSW’s custodians will be asked to identify the person[s] from whom they would request such documents if they needed the documents for a business purpose. Any persons identified not already on the custodian list will then be sent the same inquiry discussed above. LSW will produce responsive non- privileged documents identified by these inquiries.

(2) LSW’s production of a Rule 30(b)(6) witness to testify on Deposition Topic Nos. 1-5: LSW has agreed to designate Elizabeth MacGowan as a Rule 30(b)(6) witness to testify on Deposition Topic Nos. 1-5. LSW will make Ms.

MacGowan available for up to 1.5 hours of testimony as a Rule 30(b)(6) witness.

_

If LSW tenders Ms. MacGowan as a percipient witness on the same day as her testimony on Deposition Topic Nos. 1-5, then she will not be deposed for more than 8 hours total on that date as a percipient witness and Rule 30(b)(6) witness for Deposition Topic Nos. 1-5. LSW may also elect to have Ms. McGowan finish this combined total of 8 hours of testimony on a second consecutive day, as opposed to 8 hours on one single day. Ms. MacGowan’s testimony as a Rule 30(b)(6) witness

on Deposition Topic Nos. 1-5 will not count against the 3 days of Rule 30(b)(6)
