CASE NO. C 06 4289 SBA 

2 

 Plaintiffs and counterdefendants ArrivalStar S.A. and Melvino Technologies Limited and 

defendant and counterclaimant APL Logistics Americas, Ltd., ("APL") hereby stipulate, by and through 

their respective counsel, to extend time to and including January 12, 2007, for APL to serve its preliminary 

invalidity contentions. The present deadline is December 29, 2006. The parties are currently participating 

in meaningful settlement discussions and believe that this short extension will allow the parties to focus on 

settlement with the expectation that service of the preliminary invalidity contentions will be ultimately 

unnecessary. 

 Accordingly, the parties respectfully request that the Court extend the deadline until January 12, 

2007, for APL to serve its preliminary invalidity contentions.
