hereby stipulate and agree as follows: 

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that Defendant’s time to answer, move or 

otherwise plead is enlarged until either: (1) 45 days after plaintiffs in the Transpacific Passenger 

Air cases file and serve a consolidated amended complaint; or, (2) 45 days after plaintiffs in the 

Transpacific Passenger Air cases provide notice that a consolidated amended complaint will not 

be filed. 

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that Defendant shall not contest 

sufficiency of process or service of process of the complaint filed in the above-captioned action. 

This Stipulation does not constitute a waiver by Defendant of any other defense, including but not 

limited to the defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, subject matter jurisdiction, or improper 

venue. Nothing in this paragraph shall obligate Defendant to answer, move, or otherwise respond 

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

 IT IS SO STIPULATED.
