`JOINT NOTICE OF EXTENSION REGARDING VENUE DISCOVERY
`
`
`Pursuant to the Court’s Amended Standing Order Regarding Joint or Unopposed Request
`
`
`
`
`to Change Deadlines dated March 7, 2022, Plaintiffs Gentex Corporation and Indigo Technologies,
`
`LLC (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) and Defendants Meta Platforms, Inc. and Facebook Technologies,
`
`LLC (collectively, “Defendants”) hereby notify the Court that the parties have agreed to an
`
`extension of time for completing venue discovery, from April 29, 2022 to May 10, 2022, to (a)
`
`complete a previously noticed deposition and (b) extend the time for Defendants to provide the
`
`discovery ordered in the Court’s April 13, 2022 Order (Dkt. No. 49) and the supplemental venue
`
`discovery Meta has agreed to provide (“Remaining Venue Discovery”) to May 4, 2022.
`
`Defendants have represented that Mr. Wong, who submitted a declaration in support of their
`
`Motion to Transfer Venue, is currently ill and, as a result, Defendants need an extension of time
`
`to provide the Remaining Venue Discovery. The parties have therefore agreed that Defendants
`
`will provide the Remaining Venue Discovery as soon as able, but no later than May 4, 2022. Mr.

`
`Wong will sit for a deposition at a mutually agreeable date no later than May 10, 2022. Plaintiffs

`
`reply in support of Defendants’ Motion to Transfer Venue will be filed within fourteen days of
`
`Plaintiffs’ Opposition Brief. The Parties certify that this extended deadline does not change the

`
`submission that affects the Court’s ability to hold a scheduled hearing, trial, or Court event.
