Good cause exists for granting an extension. Defendant has just retained counsel, Higgs, Fletcher & Mack LLP, and counsel needs time to review the facts and allegations in order to prepare a proper response. The case was only recently removed from State to Federal Court on April 18, 2007, by Defendant MENU FOODS, and is a class action involving multiple parties.

IT IS SO STIPULATED. DATED: April 27, 2007
