               1.2 That Mr. Barry S. Sziklay may be appointed as an                   
               expert in the field of fair market valuation and                       
               generally accepted accounting principles and will be                   
               asked to opine upon the following questions in the                     
               context of these cases and, specifically, with regard                  
               to this petitioner:                                                    
                    a.  Whether mid market valuation arrives at                       
                    “fair market value” (as that term is defined                      
                    for federal tax purposes)?                                        
                    b.  What adjustments, if any, should be made                      
                    to mid market values in order to arrive at                        
                    the “fair market value” of the derivatives                        
                    being valued?                                                     
                    c.  With respect to the financial instruments                     
                    in these cases whether the accounting concept                     
                    of “fair value” is synonymous with the tax                        
                    concept of “fair market value”?                                   
               1.3 That for both of the Court’s experts, opinions                     
               generally should be restricted to information,                         
               techniques, and knowledge available or reasonably                      
               foreseeable during the years in issue.                                 
               1.4 That after consultation with the parties, the                      
               Court may propound other specific questions to be                      
               addressed by the Court’s experts.                                      
                                                                                     
               2.0 That each of the Court’s experts shall prepare and                 
               sign a written report in accordance with Rule 143(f) of                
               the Court’s Rules of Practice and Procedure.  Each                     
               report shall contain a complete statement of all                       
               opinions and the basis and reasons therefor, as well as                
               the data or other information considered by the witness                
               in forming the opinions, subject to the following                      
               further limitations:                                                   
                    (a) Except by order of the Court, in the                          
                    preparation of their reports, the Court’s                         
                    experts shall be limited to considering the                       
                    trial record as of the date when both parties                     
                    have completed the presentations of their                         
                    respective cases, in this matter, as well as                      
                    materials of a type reasonably relied upon by                     
                    experts in the particular field.
