seeking the transfer of this action to a court designated by the Panel, and the SEC 

believes that the Panel is considering that request; and 

WHEREAS, this action is one of four substantially similar putative class

to evaluate and prepare appropriate responses to the complaints in such putative

WHEREAS, counsel for the SEC have longstanding vacation plans during the 

week of July 5, 2016 and on various additional days thereafter in July 2016; and 

WHEREAS, by filing this stipulation and proposed order in this action, the 

SEC expressly reserves, and does not waive, all rights and defenses available to it, 

including, but not limited to, the defense of lack of personal jurisdiction and all 

other defenses available under Rule 12(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; 

NOW, therefore, Plaintiff and the SEC hereby stipulate as follows: 

1. Pursuant to Local Rule 144(a), the SEC's deadline to respond to the 

Complaint in this action is extended to and including August 19, 2016.
