with the requirements of the Antitrust Procedures and Penalties Act, 15 U.S.C.
§ 16, and without further notice to any party or other proceedings, provided that
Plaintiff has not withdrawn its consent, which it may do at any time before the
entry of the proposed Final Judgment by serving notice thereof on each
stipulating Defendant and by filing such notice with the Court.
- Each stipulating Defendant agrees to abide by and comply with the provisions of
the proposed Final Judgment, pending the Judgment's entry by the Court, or
until expiration of time for all appeals of any Court ruling declining entry of the

Stipulation, comply with all terms and provisions of the proposed Final
Judgment as though the same were in full force and effect as an order of this
Court.
- This Stipulation shall apply with equal force and effect to any amended
proposed Final Judgment agreed upon in writing by the parties and submitted to
the Court.

(b) the proposed Final Judgment is not entered pursuant to this Stipulation, the
time has expired for all appeals of any Court ruling declining entry of the
proposed Final Judgment, and the Court has not otherwise ordered continued
compliance with the terms and provisions of the proposed Final Judgment, then
the stipulating parties are released from all further obligations under this
Stipulation, and the making of this Stipulation shall be without prejudice to any
party in this or any other proceeding.
