Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-12, Defendants Hortonworks, Inc., Robert G. Bearden, and 

Scott J. Davidson (“Defendants”), Lead Plaintiff Randall A. Arvidson, and original Plaintiff 

William Monachelli (together the “Plaintiffs” and collectively, with Defendants, the “Parties”),

by and through their undersigned counsel of record, submit the following Stipulation and 

Proposed Scheduling Order:

WHEREAS, the Court scheduled a Case Management Conference (“CMC”) in this action 

for June 17, 2016 at 2:30 p.m. (Dkt. No. 7);

WHEREAS, on April 27, 2016, the Court entered an order (Dkt. No. 19) approving the 

Parties’ joint stipulation to reschedule the June 17, 2016 CMC to September 16, 2016 and

extending Defendants’ time to respond to the complaint, providing that, “Within twenty (20) days 

after this Court appoints a Lead Plaintiff, the Lead Plaintiff and Defendants will submit to the 

Court a proposed schedule for (i) Lead Plaintiff’s filing of an Amended Complaint or designation 

of the Complaint as the operative complaint in this action; (ii) Defendants’ time to answer or 

otherwise respond to the operative complaint; (iii) Lead Plaintiff’s time to respond to any motion 

to dismiss; and (iv) Defendants’ time to reply with respect to the same.”;

WHEREAS, on June 1, 2016, the Court issued a written order granting Randall A. 

Arvidson’s unopposed motion seeking his appointment as Lead Plaintiff and granting his motion 

for appointment of Pomerantz LLP as Lead Counsel. (Dkt No. 39);

WHEREAS, the Parties have met and conferred and agreed as to a proposed schedule for 

the filing of an amended complaint and for briefing Defendants’ anticipated motion to dismiss 

and further agreed that it would save judicial and Party resources if the CMC is deferred until 

after the Court rules on such motion;

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between 

the undersigned Parties that:

1. Lead Plaintiff shall file an amended complaint no later than July 28, 2016;

2. Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint shall be filed on or before
