Defendants COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF 

MECHANICS BANK; MECHANICS BANK SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT 

PLAN and MECHANICS BANK (collectively, “Defendants”) and Plaintiff Steven K. Buster 

(“Plaintiff”) (together hereafter the “Parties”) hereby stipulate and agree, by and through their 

respective counsel, to extend the time for Defendants to answer Plaintiff’s First Amended 

Complaint until Monday, June 20, 2016.

Plaintiff filed the First Amended Complaint on Friday, May 27, 2016, Defendant would 

normally have until Friday, June 10, 2016 to respond to Plaintiff’s First Amended Complaint. The 

reasons for the requested enlargement or shortening of time are that Plaintiff’s First Amended 

Complaint, which was filed in the afternoon of May 27, 2016 (before the beginning of the three day 

Memorial Day weekend) has added an additional claim for relief beyond those asserted in the 

original Complaint, and asserts additional factual allegations. Defendants require additional time 

beyond the time provided for in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to review the First Amended 

Complaint and to prepare a response.

Defendants previously obtained a thirty (30) day extension of time, from April 6, 2016 to 

May 6, 2016, to respond to the original Complaint in this matter, by stipulation. The proposed order 

extending the time to respond to the First Amended Complaint will not alter the date of any event or 

any deadline already fixed by Court order. This Stipulation is made and entered into pursuant to 

Local Rule 6-2(a).
