Neither Party will be prejudiced by the Court granting this Joint Motion for Extension of
Time. The Court has authority pursuant to Rule 6 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to
grant extensions of time. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b)(1). At the hearing on January 13, 2012, the
Court indicated its approval of these proposed schedule and briefing modifications, subject to the
parties submitting this renewed joint motion.

Defendant Anton Titov has indicated that he will be filing a separate motion for summary
judgment. Plaintiffs similarly intend to file a motion for summary judgment on Mr. Titov’s
liability. The parties would like the option of combining the motion for summary judgment on
Mr. Titov’s liability with the motion for summary judgment against Hotfile Corp. To the extent
they combine the two motions, the parties request an enlargement of the page limitation allowed
under the Local Rules to 40 pages, with oppositions of equal length, and replies of no more than
20 pages.
