`
`related cases currently pending on the Court’s docket that may also be appropriate for
`
`consolidation with this case.

`The Clerk is instructed to add the consolidated defendants into the Lead Case and their
`
`corresponding Lead and Local Counsel only. Additional counsel may file a Notice of
`
`Appearance in the Lead Case if they wish to continue as counsel of record in the lead
`
`consolidated action. Counsel who has appeared pro hac vice in any member case may file a
`
`Notice of Appearance in the Lead Case without filing an additional application to appear pro hac
`
`vice in the Lead Case.
