Pursuant to USDC ND Cal. Civil Local Rule 6, the Parties to the above-entitled action, Plaintiffs

Chris Eddings, Kendal Heath, and Lino Gonzalez (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants DS Services of America,

Inc. and Costco Wholesale Corporation (“Defendants”) (collectively referred to herein as “the Parties”),

by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate and agree as follows:

WHEREAS, an Initial Case Management Conference was held on September 22, 2015, wherein

the parties requested to be allowed to participate in private mediation in January 2016, and the Court

granted the request and set a further Case Management Conference for January 26, 2016, and with Case

Management Statements due by January 19, 2016. (Dkt. 20.)

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs and Defendants agreed to use mediator Jeffrey Ross for private mediation

of this class action case. As of September 22, 2015, Jeffrey Ross only had one mediation date available

in January that was prior to the Case Management Conference, but the parties were unable to mediate on

that date due to conflicts. Therefore, the parties agreed to mediate on February 9, 2016. (Declaration of

Heath A. Havey (“Havey Decl.”), at ¶2.)

WHEREAS, Plaintiffs and Defendants met and conferred on January 11, 2016, and again on

January 14, 2016, and agreed that the purpose of the further Case Management Conference, which is to

discuss the results of private mediation, will best be served after mediation is completed, and agreed that

it should be continued to February 23, 2016, or the next available date convenient for the Court, and

further agreed that the purposes of the September 22, 2015 minute entry (EMF No. 20) would best be

served if the due date for the Case Management Statements was continued to seven days before the Case

Management Conference, or February 16, 2016. (Havey Decl., ¶3.)

WHEREAS, the parties have not previously requested any time modification for this Case

Management Conference, although the Court sua sponte changed the time of the Case Management

Conference from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on January 14, 2016. (EMF No. 24; Havey Decl., ¶4.)

WHEREAS, the parties, through counsel for Defendants Heath A. Havey, have submitted a

declaration compliant with USDC ND Cal. Civil Local Rule 6-2(a).

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties stipulate and request that the Court enter an order that the

January 26, 2016 Case Management Conference be continued to February 23, 2016, or the next

available date convenient for the Court.
