WHEREAS
 currently
 pending
 before
 the
 court
 is
 a
 Motion
 to
 Dismiss
 Plaintiff’s
 Claims

of
 Indirect
 and
 Willful
 Infringement
 in
 the
 First
 Amended
 Complaint
 that
 has
 been
 filed
 by

Defendant
 Incase
 Designs
 Corp
 (“Incase”);

WHEREAS
 Plaintiff
 Jerald
 A.
 Bovino
 (“Bovino”)
 has
 recently
 offered
 to
 amend
 his
 First

Amended
 Complaint;

 WHEREAS
 the
 parties
 desire
 to
 narrow
 the
 issues
 in
 dispute,
 and
 eliminate
 the
 need

for
 the
 court
 to
 rule
 on
 a
 motion
 to
 dismiss
 a
 complaint
 that
 the
 Bovino
 has
 agreed
 to
 amend;

NOW,
 THEREFORE,
 in
 consideration
 of
 the
 agreements
 set
 forth
 below,
 the
 parties

hereby
 stipulate
 as
 follows:

1.

pleading
 and
 file
 a
 Second
 Amended
 Complaint
 no
 later
 than
 September
 30,
 2014;

2.

3.

A
 claim
 of
 liability
 for
 indirect
 infringement
 prior
 to
 the
 filing
 of
 suit;
 and

e.

18

A
 request
 for
 an
 injunction;

d.

17

A
 claim
 of
 liability
 for
 willful
 Infringement;

c.

16

A
 claim
 of
 liability
 for
 direct
 infringement;

b.

The
 Second
 Amended
 Complaint
 will
 not
 contain
 any
 of
 the
 following:

a.

14

19

The
 parties
 agree,
 pursuant
 to
 F.R.C.P.
 15a)(2),
 that
 Bovino
 may
 amend
 his

A
 request
 for
 damages
 for
 any
 activity
 occurring
 prior
 to
 the
 filing
 of
 suit.

The
 Second
 Amended
 Complaint
 will
 be
 limited
 to
 asserting
 indirect
 liability

based
 on
 post-­‐suit
 conduct
 alone.

 This
 is
 not
 an
 admission
 that
 Incase
 believes
 any
 post-­‐suit

conduct
 exists
 that
 supports
 an
 indirect
 liability
 claim.

4.

In
 light
 of
 the
 above,
 Incase
 agrees
 to
 withdraw
 its
 pending
 Motion
 to
 Dismiss

Plaintiff’s
 Claims
 of
 Indirect
 and
 Willful
 Infringement
 in
 the
 First
 Amended
 Complaint,
 and
 the

parties
 jointly
 request
 that
 the
 court
 take
 the
 motion
 to
 dismiss
 hearing
 off
 calendar.
 Incase

reserves
 the
 right
 to
 move
 to
 dismiss
 again
 pursuant
 to
 FRCP
 12(b)(6)
 if
 it
 believes
 that
 the

Second
 Amended
 Complaint
 still
 fails to give fair notice of the plaintiff’s claim and the grounds
upon which it rests, or to state a claim for relief that follows plausibly from the facts alleged.

Lastly,

 of
 the
 defendant’s

Invalidity
 Contentions
 and
