No. 1793, Plaintiff Michael Olmert (“Plaintiff”) and Defendants AMR Corp., 

American Airlines, Inc., British Airways Plc, UAL Corp., United Air Lines, Inc., 

and Virgin Atlantic Airways Limited (collectively, the “Defendants”), through 

their respective counsel, hereby stipulate and agree as follows: 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that Defendants’ time to

Defendants would otherwise be required to file a response pursuant to Federal Rule 

of Civil Procedure 12, or (2) 45 days after the JPML rules on the pending motion 

and consolidates each related action in a single court, and a consolidated complaint

each such counsel of all complaints in the above-captioned matter, including any 

amended or consolidated complaints, and further, that such Defendant shall not 

contest sufficiency of process or service of process. This Stipulation does not 

constitute a waiver of any other defense including, but not limited to, the defenses 

of lack of personal or subject matter jurisdiction or improper venue. Nothing in

this paragraph shall obligate any Defendant to answer, move or otherwise respond 

to any complaint until the time provided in the preceding paragraph. The above 

notwithstanding, should any Defendant, except pursuant to court order, respond to 

any complaint in a related matter filed in another United States District Court prior 

to the date contemplated by this stipulation, then such Defendant shall make a 

simultaneous response to the complaint in the above-captioned matter.
