2.

Stelor is in the process of preparing its response, but requires some additional

time. The Counterclaim is voluminous, containing multiple counts and more than 90 separately numbered paragraphs worth of allegations. It also includes more than a 100 pages worth of exhibits. 3. The review of this material and assembly of additional information required

appropriately to respond has taken longer than anticipated when service was initially accepted. In fact, that parties' stipulation reflected an effort to shorten the time that would otherwise be provided pursuant to Rule 4(d)(3), Fed. R. Civ. P., which allows 60 days for service of a response. 4. This enlargement is not requested for purposes of delay, and will not unduly

prejudice Google. Stelor has advised counsel for GOOGLE of the requested relief, but has not yet been advised of its position. WHEREFORE, Stelor respectfully requests entry of an order enlarging by 20 days the time for Stelor to respond to the Counterclaim.
