requests for further relief from such extended deadline. In support of this Stipulation, the parties

state as follows:

1. On May 24, 2016, Illumina filed its Complaint [Dkt. No. 1] and Motion for

Preliminary Injunction [Dkt. No. 13] (“the Motion”) against defendants QIAGEN, N.V., QIAGEN

GmbH, QIAGEN Gaithersburg, Inc., QIAGEN Sciences, LLC, QIAGEN Inc. (USA), QIAGEN

Redwood City, Inc., and Intelligent Bio-Systems, Inc. (together, “QIAGEN”).

2. Pursuant to the Court’s Local Rules governing the timing of filing Opposition

briefs, Qiagen’s response to Illumina’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction was set for two weeks

after Illumina’s May 24, 2016 filing date, i.e., on June 7, 2016.

3. Illumina served the registered agents of the U.S.-based defendants, QIAGEN

Gaithersburg, Inc., QIAGEN Sciences, LLC, QIAGEN Inc. (USA), QIAGEN Redwood City, Inc.,

and Intelligent Bio-Systems, Inc., on May 25-26, 2016. Defendants’ counsel accepted service as

to the two foreign-based defendants, QIAGEN, N.V. and QIAGEN GmbH, on May 31, 2016, but

without waiving any defenses, except the need for formal service of process.

4. QIAGEN has requested additional time to respond to the Motion and the

Complaint, and Illumina has preliminarily agreed to extend the deadline for QIAGEN to respond

to Illumina’s Complaint and Motion for Preliminary Injunction until and including June 17, 2016.

The parties continue to engage in discussions regarding additional time to respond, procedural

issues regarding the Court’s jurisdiction over certain defendants and the venue of this matter, and

overall scheduling.

5. Although the parties continue to meet and confer regarding the scheduling of this

matter, if the meet and confer is not successful, QIAGEN anticipates filing further requests for

additional relief from the June 17 deadlines memorialized by this Stipulation, and this Stipulation

is without prejudice to QIAGEN’s right to request such additional relief from the case schedule, or

to Illumina’s right to oppose any such requests.

6. The parties also agree that Illumina’s obligation to file a Continuance of Noticed

Hearing Date under Civil Local Rule 7-7 also is extended so that Illumina may comply with Civil
