AMENDED JOINT EXHIBIT LIST IN MT. ADAMS VENEER CO. v. UNITED STATES, NO. 91-984C Pursuant to the pretrial conference held on March 1, 2005, and this Court's March 2, 2005 Order, the parties respectfully submit the following amended joint exhibit list for the trial in Mt. Adams Veneer Co. v. United States, No. 91-984C.1 The parties stipulate that the exhibits listed below are authentic, relevant, and admissible in the trial of this matter. 1. 2.

Forest Service advertisement for the Lynx Sale. Prospectus for the Lynx Sale, dated August 17, 1979.
The Court's March 2 Order directed that the Government "file an amendment to the Joint Exhibit List that adds as joint exhibits four summaries of timber sale comparisons (Plaintiff's Exhibits 20, 21, 22, & 23)." Id. at ¶ 4 (parenthetical in original). These four summaries are exhibits prepared by plaintiff's expert, Paul Ehinger. In directing that these documents be added to the joint list, the Court appears to have misconstrued the agreement the parties reached at the pretrial conference. The parties did not agree to add to the joint exhibit list summary exhibits prepared by plaintiff's expert. Rather, the parties agreed to add the appraisal summaries and reports of timber sale for the ten sales the contracting officer considered in selecting sales to calculate his estimated bid premium. We have, accordingly, added the latter documents to this amended list; we have not added Mr. Ehinger's summaries. The parties apologize to the Court for the misunderstanding. The parties also note that they will consent to add to their joint exhibit list the prospectuses for the four sales the contracting officer used to calculate the estimated bid premium, if those documents can be found. -1-
