WHEREAS, the action Christopher Corsi v. Apple Inc. et al., Northern District of California, San Jose Division, Case No. CV 10-03316 PVT ("Corsi") was filed on July 28, 2010; and WHEREAS, the Corsi action asserts claims against defendant Apple Inc. ("Apple") that are substantially similar to the claims asserted in Charlene Gallion v. Apple Inc., Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, Case No. CV 10-01610-RS ("Gallion"); and WHEREAS, the putative classes in both the Corsi and Gallion actions substantially overlap; and WHEREAS, the parties believe that the Corsi action involves substantially similar questions of law and fact1 as the Gallion action; and WHEREAS, the parties believe the Corsi action is a "related case" within the meaning of Local Rule 3-12; and WHEREAS, the parties believe that treatment of the Corsi action as related would serve the interests of judicial economy and avoid the potential for conflicting rulings; IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED that Christopher Corsi v. Apple Inc. et al., Northern District of California, San Jose Division, Case No. CV 10-03316 PVT should be related to Charlene Gallion v. Apple Inc., Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, Case No. CV 10-01610-RS. SO STIPULATED.

Apple does not by this Stipulation concede any of the factual allegations of the cases or that certification of the putative classes is proper under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
