RESERVATION OF RIGHTS

The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company reserves the right to supplement or

amend this exhibit list. Goodyear Tire does not know all of the areas of testimony or proof

that Plaintiffs intend to produce at trial. Therefore, Goodyear Tire cannot designate all

potential exhibits until they have had the benefit of reviewing all of Plaintiffs' exhibits,

experts' reports, opinions and documents relied upon by Plaintiffs' experts and hearing their

testimony at trial. To the extent that a witness provides evidence or expresses an opinion at

trial or in discovery that has not been divulged prior to the time that this statement was

served on counsel, and which creates a need for additional areas of rebuttal testimony or

proof, Goodyear Tire reserves the right to supplement this exhibit list. Goodyear Tire also

reserves the right to amend or supplement this exhibit list based on newly discovered or

disclosed documents, records or other materials relating to Plaintiff Charles Cecil.
