WHEREAS, on May 5, 2016, Plaintiffs Patrick M. and Deborah P. Gibrall, individually

3
Federal Securities Laws (“Complaint”) against Intrexon Corporation (“Intrexon”) and certain
4
of its current executives, Randal J. Kirk and Rick L. Sterling (collectively, “Defendants”);
5
WHEREAS, on May 3, 2016, a substantively similar complaint with the caption Ryan
6
Hoffman v. Intrexon Corp. et al. (Case No. 3:16-cv-02398-RS) (the “Hoffman Action”) was filed
7
with the Court;

10
WHEREAS, Defendants signed and returned waivers of service and Defendants’ initial
response to the Complaint is currently due on July 11, 2016;
WHEREAS, this action is governed by the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation

Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), 15 U.S.C. §78u-4 et seq., and the parties anticipate that the
12
Court will consolidate the Gibrall and Hoffman actions and will appoint a lead plaintiff, and that
13
the court-appointed lead plaintiff will file a consolidated complaint superseding previously filed
14
complaints, including the Complaint; and
15
WHEREAS, the parties agree that efficiency for the courts and the parties in proceeding

under the PSLRA dictates that responding to any complaint should be deferred in light of the

foregoing.
