MOTION

Bank Defendants move, pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure, to dismiss plaintiffs’ amended complaint for failure to state a claim for relief. Bank

Defendants also move to dismiss for failure to provide “a short and plain statement of the claim

showing the pleader is entitled to relief” pursuant to Rule 8(a). Bank Defendants further move

the court for an order allowing recovery of their reasonable attorney fees pursuant to the terms of

the parties’ contractual agreements and ORS 20.105.

In support of this Motion, Bank Defendants rely upon the Memorandum in Support of
their Motion to Dismiss, the Request for Judicial Notice by the Bank Defendants, the Declaration

of Stephen P. McCarthy in Support of Request for Judicial Notice, and the pleadings filed in this

action.
