Plaintiff Dollar Tree Stores, Inc.

RECITALS

1.

On May 10, 2010, Plaintiff filed and served its First Amended and Verified

Complaint for Damages and Declaratory Relief, Breach of Contract, Tortious Interference and Unfair Competition ( First Amended Complaint ) in this action. 2. Pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 6(d) and 15(a)(3), Comerica s response to the First

Amended Complaint is currently due May 27, 2010. 3. Pursuant to the Court s Pretrial Preparation Order, filed May 10, 2010, a hearing

date of July 30, 2010 has been reserved for the hearing of any motion to dismiss the First Amended Complaint filed by Comerica. 4. Comerica s lead counsel, Peter G. Bertrand, Esq., has been diagnosed with

pneumonia and will be unable to work or to participate in Comerica s defense in this action for an indeterminate amount of time of at least several weeks. 5. In light of the foregoing, the Parties believe that it would be in the interests of the

Court and all of the Parties to extend the date for the filing of Comerica s responsive pleading to the First Amended Complaint to June 18, 2010 and to schedule the briefing on any motion to dismiss the First Amended Complaint filed by Comerica as set forth below. 6. Pursuant to Civil L.R. 6-1(b) and 6-2, the request for enlargement of time

stipulated to herein involves papers required to be filed or lodged with the Court other than an initial response to the complaint. Other than with respect to the date of filing of Comerica s responsive pleading to the First Amended Complaint the enlargement of time stipulated to herein will have no effect on the schedule for this case.
