RIYADH WASHINGTON

Advantage Battery Corporation, Inc. v. Steelscape, Inc., Case No. C-08-01827 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division.

Dear Judge Chesney: Defendant Steelscape, Inc. and Third-Party Defendant IMSA Acero, S.A. de C.V. continue to engage in what they anticipate are the last stages of settlement discussions. I am writing today to advise the Court of these developments and to ask on behalf of both parties that the Court further stay IMSA Acero's pending Motion to Dismiss for Improper Venue, Lack of Personal Jurisdiction, and Insufficient Service of Process until June 26, 2009, in order to allow the parties time to complete their settlement negotiations. By my signature below, I certify to the Court that John Wander, counsel for Steelscape, Inc., joins me in this request. Respectfully submitted,

Kevin Cadwell
