stipulate and agree as follows:

January 14, 2015 and set a hearing date for January 28, 2015 at 10:00 before Magistrate Judge 

Stanley A. Boone (Docket No. 52);

WHEREAS, on January 8, 2015 and January 9, 2015, counsel for the Parties met and 

conferred and agreed to stipulate to continue the hearing date for the motion for preliminary 

approval of class action settlement;

BASED UPON THE FOREGOING, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED as follows:
