-1- 

Pursuant to Rule 16(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and to fully reflect the 

deadlines discussed and established during the Case Management Conference (see D.I. 282), the 

parties stipulate to an order providing that Paragraphs A and B of the Order for Pretrial Preparation 

entered on October 25, 2006 (D.I. 283) shall be modified to state the following: 

A. DISCOVERY CUT-OFF 

All discovery, except for expert discovery, depositions in Japan, and willfulness discovery, 

shall be completed and all depositions taken on or before 1/10/07. All depositions in Japan shall be 

taken on or before 3/16/07. The parties are responsible for scheduling discovery so that motions to 

resolve discovery disputes can be heard before the above discovery cut-offs.

B. EXPERT DESIGNATION AND EXPERT AND WILLFULNESS DISCOVERY

Plaintiff shall disclose any affirmative experts by 1/16/07; defendant by 1/16/07; and rebuttal 

experts disclosed by 2/16/07. Any expert not so named may be disallowed as a witness. No expert 

will be permitted to testify to any opinion, or basis or support for an opinion, that has not been 

disclosed in response to an appropriate question or interrogatory from the opposing party. 

Affirmative expert reports shall be due by 3/16/07; rebuttal expert reports by 4/16/07. Expert 

discovery and willfulness discovery shall be completed by 5/16/07. 

 C. PRESERVATION OF PRIOR ORDER

To the extent not expressly amended herein, the Court’s previous Order dated October 

25, 2006 (D.I. 283) shall remain in effect.
