Susan Bartholomew ("Plaintiff") and Defendants British Airways Plc, Virgin Atlantic Airways Limited, and United Air Lines, Inc. (collectively, the "Defendants"), through their respective counsel, hereby stipulate and agree as follows: IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that Defendants' time to answer, move or otherwise plead is enlarged until the later of (1) the date when the 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 is filed by all plaintiffs in the single transferee Court and served on Defendants. IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that each defense counsel designated below shall accept service on behalf of the Defendant represented by 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. Respectfully submitted,
