STIPULATION

WHEREAS, on March 11, 2010, plaintiff Marc Black filed a Complaint against Troy 

Stafford, Patrick Williams, and WS Seafood Investment Limited Liability Corporation 

(collectively, “Defendants”); 

WHEREAS, on April 19, 2010, the parties stipulated to an extension of time until 

Thursday, April 29, 2010 for Defendants to respond to the Complaint, as Defendants, citizens of 

the State of Alaska, had recently retained California counsel in this Action and desired to 

determine whether a resolution of the dispute was possible before Defendants responded to the 

Complaint; 

WHEREAS, the parties have mutually agreed to engage a mediator to determine whether 

a resolution is possible; 

WHEREAS, the agreed-upon schedule is not for the purpose of delay, promotes judicial 

efficiency, and will not cause prejudice to any party; 

THEREFORE, IT IS STIPULATED AND AGREED by Plaintiff Marc Black and 

Defendants, through their respective counsel of record, that Defendants shall answer or otherwise 

respond to the Complaint on or before June 14, 2010.
