SCA No 111

COMPLAINT

PLAINTIFF, by counsel, respectfully states that:

1. Plaintiff and defendants are all of legal age; plaintiff resides at GG Cebu CIty while defendants
reside at HH Cebu City and II Cebu City, respectively, where they may be served with pertinent
notices.

2. On 1 June 2007, plaintiff found a Gold Rolex Oyster watch, without knowing who its true owner
is. The watch is now in plaintiff’s possession. On or about 5 June 1999, defendants made similar
representations to plaintiff as to ownership of the watch.

3. Plaintiff, who claims no interest in the watch, cannot determine the conflicting claims of
defendants and thus seeks to compel defendants to interplead and litigate their several claims
between themselves.

WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed that this Honorable Court issue an order directing defendants to
interplead with one another to determine their respective rights and claims and to allow plaintiff to
recover his expenses for safekeeping and the costs of this suit, as first lien upon the subject matter
of this action.

Cebu City; 13 April 2007.
