WHEREAS, on March 19, 2003, plaintiffs filed Veliz v. Cintas Corporation, Case No. C-03-

1180-SBA, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (“Veliz

Action”) against defendants (collectively “Cintas”), alleging that Cintas had failed to pay all 

overtime wages due under the FLSA and certain state laws and deprived them of certain benefits 

protected by ERISA; 

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs Ramon Johnson and Bruce Jiles opted into the Veliz Action but have 

now determined to dismiss with prejudice their respective causes of action and/or claims against 

Cintas as set out in the Veliz action; 

NOW THEREFORE, the parties, through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate: 

1. Plaintiffs Ramon Johnson (“Johnson”) and Plaintiff Bruce Jiles (“Jiles”) hereby 

withdraw and dismiss with prejudice, all causes of action and claims made in Veliz v. Cintas 

Corporation, N.D. Cal., Case No. C-03-1180-RS. 

2. Neither this stipulation nor the order of dismissal thereon shall constitute or imply 

any admission, concession or adjudication by any party regarding any claim raised in or by the Veliz

Action. 

3. This stipulation may be executed in counterparts and the executed counterparts may 

be exchanged electronically or by facsimile, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute 

but one and the same stipulation. 

4. Each party shall bear its own costs, attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses related 

solely to the prosecution and defense of the withdrawing Johnson’s and Jiles’ claims in the Veliz

Action.
