II. APPOINTMENT OF LEAD PLAINTIFF AND LEAD COUNSEL

4. Movant Low has moved this Court to be appointed as Lead Plaintiff in the Consolidated Action and to approve the counsel he retained to be Lead Counsel.

5. Having considered the provisions of Section 21D(a)(3)(B) of the PSLRA, 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(a)(3)(B), the Court hereby determines that Movant is the most adequate plaintiff and satisfies the requirements of the PSLRA.

The Court approves Movant's selection of Lead Counsel and Liaison Counsel for the Consolidated Action. Counsel shall review and abide by the Court's guidelines to limit costs and expenses used in other cases. See, e.g., In Re Carrier IQ, No. C-12-2330 EMC (N.D. Cal.) (Docket No. 110).

i. to supervise all other matters concerning the prosecution or resolution of the claims asserted in the Consolidated Action.

8. No motion, discovery request, or other pretrial proceedings shall be initiated or filed by any plaintiffs without the approval of Lead Counsel, so as to prevent duplicative pleadings or discovery by plaintiffs.

9. Service upon any plaintiff of all pleadings, motions, or other papers in the Consolidated Action, except those specifically addressed to a plaintiff other than Lead Plaintiff, shall be completed upon service of Lead Counsel.

b. deliver a copy of this Order to the attorneys for the plaintiff(s) in the newly filed or transferred case and to any new defendant(s) in the newly filed or transferred case; and

c. make the appropriate entry on the docket for this action.

12. Each new case that arises out of the subject matter of the action that is filed in this Court or transferred to this Court shall be consolidated with the Consolidated Action and this Order shall apply thereto, unless a party objecting to this Order or any provision of this Order shall, within ten (10) days after the date upon which a copy of this Order is served on counsel for such party, file an application for relief from this Order or any provision herein and this Court deems it appropriate to grant such application.
