Mexico S.A. de C.V., Samsung SDI Brasil Ltda., Shenzhen Samsung SDI Co., Ltd., Tianjin

USA, Inc., Technologies Displays Americas LLC, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Mitsubishi 

Electric Visual Solutions America, Inc., and Mitsubishi Electric & Electronics USA, Inc., being 

all the defendants in this case ( collectively “Defendants”), state as follows: 

 On October 17, 2013, the Circuit City Trust filed its First Amended Complaint (“FAC”) in 

individual case number 11-cv-05502 (MDL Master Dkt. No. 2016). On November 12, 2013, the 

Circuit City Trust filed its Complaint in individual case number 13-cv-05261 (the 

“Thomson/Mitsubishi/TDA Complaint”) (Ind. Case Dkt. No. 1). The FAC and the 

Thomson/Mitsubishi/TDA Complaints are the “Complaints.” In the Complaints, the Circuit City 

Trust asserts claims for relief against Defendants under the Sherman Act, the California 

Cartwright Act, California Consumer Protection and Unfair Competition Laws, and the Illinois 

Antitrust Act. 

 The Circuit City Trust now desires to dismiss with prejudice its claims against Defendants 

under the California Cartwright Act, California Consumer Protection and Unfair Competition 

Laws, and the Illinois Antitrust Act. The Circuit City Trust is not dismissing, and will continue to 

prosecute, its claims against Defendants under the Sherman Act. 

 NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES STIPULATE AND AGREE that the claims of the 

Circuit City Trust asserted against Defendants in these cases under the California Cartwright Act, 

California Consumer Protection and Unfair Competition Laws, and the Illinois Antitrust Act are
