                               WOODWARD, INC.,
                                  Appellee.

                 On Appeal from the 190th Judicial District Court Of
                              Harris County, Texas
                           Trial Cause No. 2010-31214
                   The Honorable Patricia J. Kerrigan, Presiding

 SECOND UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
                  APPELLANTS’ BRIEF

      Ulirka Bjorkstam and Joseph Daniel Dray file their Second Unopposed

Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellants’ Brief, pursuant to Tex. R. App.

P. 10.5(b).

      1.      Presently, Appellants’ Brief is due March 2, 2015.

      2.      Through this Unopposed Motion, Appellants seek an extension of

twenty-one (21) days to file their Brief. Should the Court grant this Motion, the

new deadline will be March 23, 2015.

      3.      Contemporaneously with this Motion, Appellants filed their

Unopposed Motion to Supplement the Reporter’s Record. Through that Motion,
Appellants seek to add the transcript of a hearing that occurred on May 17, 2013.

There is a reference to the May 17th hearing in the Reporter’s Record currently on

file with the Court. The May 17th hearing transcript is necessary for the complete

presentation of Appellants’ arguments. The court reporter is ready to file the May

17th hearing transcript, if the Court should grant Appellants’ Unopposed Motion to

Supplement the Reporter’s Record.

         4.   Additionally, Appellants’ counsel argued before the Delaware

Supreme Court on February 18, 2015 in Bell Helicopter Textron, Inc. v. Andres

Arteaga, et al., Case Number 333, 2014. As a result, the first eighteen days of

February were devoted to preparing for this argument, as well as getting

acclimated to a new law firm. Moreover, upon return from Delaware, where the

weather was extremely cold, Appellants’ counsel fought cold and flu symptoms for

several days.

         5.   Counsel for Woodward, Inc., has no objection to the requested

extension of twenty-one (21) days. Therefore, should the Court grant this Motion,

the extension will not result in undue hardship or material harm to Woodward, Inc.

         6.   Appellants have previously sought a thirty-day extension from the

Court.

         For these reasons, Appellants request that the Court grant their Second

Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellants’ Brief.
