Via Facsimile & U.S. Mail Harry J. Kelly, Esq. Nixon Peabody LLP ¯ 401 Ninth St., N.W. Suite 900 Washington, D.C. 20004 Anaheim Gardens; et al. v. United States, No. 93-655C (Fed. C1.); Algonquin Heights, et aL v. United States, No. 97-582C (Fed. C1.). Dear Mr. Kelly: Having reviewed the proposed schedule for depositions recently received from Ms. Ziarno, I have a number of concerns. Rather than detailing those concerns, I am simply enclosing a revised schedule with this letter. Consistent with your proposal, the. enclosed revision does not schedule depositions on July 5 or 6, 2007, uses your suggested dates for the many Cambridge Square/Carriage House plaintiffs, and schedules no depositions during the week of August 6, 2007 to accommodate your vacation plans. In addition, the United States will talce depositions in the cities requested in your previous correspondence. I trust that this meets with your approval. Given that many open days exist in July and August and that substantial resources are available to a national firm such as Nixon Peabody, we do not agree to Ms. Ziarno's proposal to ¯ extend the discovery deadline, which has already been extended twice. If taldng depositions on open dates are not feasible, however, we are willing to consider double tracking depositions to enable you to complete deposition discovery before August 31, 2007. Very truly yours,

David A. Trial Attorney Commercial Litigation Branch Enclosure
