STIPULATION
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure

3

41(a)(1)(A)(ii), that the remaining causes of action asserted in the First Amended Class Action

4

Complaint (ECF No. 47) by Plaintiffs Art Avedisian, Angela Battle, Grif Rosser, and Jason

5

Zuchowski (the “Dismissed Plaintiffs”) against Defendant Ford Motor Company are DISMISSED

6

WITH PREJUDICE.

7

The parties further stipulate and agree that such dismissal shall not prevent the Dismissed

8

Plaintiffs from participating in any recovery or other remedies to which they would otherwise be

9

entitled by virtue of their qualification for membership in any class or subclass certified by the Court

10

in this litigation. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties expressly agree that this dismissal shall not

11

affect the Dismissed Plaintiffs’ ability to submit claims in connection with any claims administration

12

procedure approved by the Court in this litigation for which they would otherwise be eligible.

13

In agreeing to this stipulation, Defendant expressly reserves its right to seek depositions of

14

the Dismissed Plaintiffs and to seek payment of costs reasonably incurred in preparing its defense to

15

the Dismissed Plaintiffs’ claims. The Dismissed Plaintiffs likewise reserve their rights to oppose and

16

object to any request for deposition of the Dismissed Plaintiffs, and/or for payment of costs, and/or

17

any other relief, made by Defendant.
