“Defendants” and collectively, the “Parties”) as set forth below.
The Parties agree that Defendants’ deadline to designate their expert(s) opposing
affirmative relief and provide expert report(s) to Plaintiff (“Defendants’ Expert Deadline”) shall
be as follows:
(l) If Defendants’ Amended Motion to Compel Arbitration and Stay Proceedings, filed July

Defendants’ Expert Deadline shall be October 2, 2023;

The Parties additionally agree that if the Court has not ruled on the Motion to Compel
Arbitration by October l6, 2023, Defendants will provide their expert designations and expert
reports on October l6, 2023. The Parties agree that Defendants’ designation of experts and
production of expert reports, by itself, prior to the Court’s ruling on the Motion to Compel
Arbitration shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of Defendants’ right to seek to compel
arbitration in this case.
The Parties additionally agree that the deadline to amend pleadings to assert new claims
and/or affirmative defenses shall be October 20, 2023.
The Parties additionally agree that the deadline for Plaintiff to designate any rebuttal expert
