          ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO RELATE AND CONSOLIDATE CASES AND TO APPOINT CO-LEAD COUNSEL [CIVIL L.R. 3-12(B) AND 7-11]

          HON. HAY WOOD S. GILLIAM, JR. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE

         Having considered the administrative motion of Defendants under Civil L.R. 3-12 and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42(a), the Court enters the following order:

         1. The following three derivative actions (the “Derivative Actions”):

Abbreviated Case Name	Case Number	Date Filed in N.D. Cal.	Current Assignment
Han v. Huang, et al. (the “Han Action”)	3:19-cv-00341	Jan. 18, 2019	Hon. William H. Orrick
Yang v. Huang, et al. (the “Yang Action”)	3:19-cv-00766	Feb. 12, 2019	Hon. Jon S. Tigar
The Booth Family Trust v. Huang, et al. (the “Booth Action”)	3:19-cv-00876	Feb. 19, 2019	Hon. Elizabeth D. Laporte

         and the consolidated securities class action, In Re NVIDIA Corporation Securities Litigation, Case. No. 4:18-cv-07669-HSG, (the “Consolidated Class Action”), currently pending before the Hon. Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr., involve substantially similar parties and events; conducting them before different judges would create the risk of potentially unduly burdensome duplication of labor and expenses and inconsistent results. Accordingly, the Derivative Actions are hereby related to the Consolidated Class Action and reassigned to the Hon. Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr.

         2. Each of the Derivative Actions also involve substantially similar parties and events and there is a risk of unnecessary duplication of labor and expenses or conflicting results if they were to be conducted separately before different judges. Accordingly, the Derivative Actions are also hereby related to each other.

         3. The Derivative Actions involve a common question of law and fact. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42(a), the Derivative Actions are hereby consolidated with each other for all purposes, including pre-trial proceedings and trial, under Case No. 3:19-cv-00341, which shall serve as the lead case (the “Consolidated Derivative Action”).

         4. The Consolidated Derivative Action shall not be consolidated with the Consolidated Class Action.

         5. Every pleading filed in the Consolidated Derivative Action shall bear the following caption:

         Case No. 4:19-cv-00341 Judge: Hon. Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr. Courtroom: 2 Related Case No. 4:18-cv-07669-HSG 6. All papers filed in connection with the Consolidated Derivative Action will be maintained in one file under Lead Case 4:19-cv-00341.

         7. Co-Lead Counsel for Plaintiffs for the conduct of the Consolidated Derivative Action shall be:
