PLAINTIFF'S FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT Pursuant to Rule 15 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Plaintiff LG Electronics Inc. ("LGE") and Defendants Hitachi, Ltd., Hitachi America, Ltd. ("HAL"), Hitachi Data Systems Corporation ("HDS"), and Hitachi Computer Products (America), Inc. ("HCPA") (collectively "Defendants") stipulate that LGE may file its First Amended Complaint for Patent Infringement, attached as Exhibit A. In the First Amended Complaint for Patent Infringement, LGE adds patent infringement counts regarding U.S. Patent No. 4,918,645 ("the `645 patent"). Pursuant to Rule 15(a)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Defendants have consented in writing to LGE's First Amended Complaint for Patent Infringement. Plaintiff LGE seeks leave to file its First Amended Complaint for Patent Infringement. MODIFICATIONS TO CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER DEADLINES The inclusion of the `645 patent in the present matter necessitates several minor modifications to the schedule provided in the Court's April 18, 2008 Case Management Order [Docket No. 45]. Such changes would accommodate: (1) Defendants' amended answer; (2) LGE's preliminary infringement contentions for the `645 patent; (3) Defendants' preliminary invalidity contentions for the `645 patent; (4) and adjustment of the Patent Local Rule 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, and 4-4 deadlines to provide for the addition of the `645 patent. Currently scheduled dates beginning with the January 30, 2009 deadline for private mediation and moving forward are unaffected. Pursuant to Local Rule 6-2, the parties hereby stipulate to the following schedule modification, and request an order granting such modification to the Court's schedule:
