In the normal course, Defendant Spinal Kinetics, Inc.’s Responsive Claim Construction Brief,

pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-5(b), would have been due on January 7, 2010. Because of the

loss of business days during the holiday period, Spinal Kinetics, Inc. has requested, and Plaintiffs

extend the period of time for submission of the Reply Claim Construction Brief to February 1,

2010.

The Claim Construction Hearing, pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-6, is presently

set for February 9, 2010. The parties have contacted this Court’s clerk and determined that

February 11, 2010 is an available date for the Court to conduct the Claim Construction Hearing.

All parties are available on February 11, 2010 for a Claim Construction Hearing.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through their counsel

of record, that:

1. The date for Defendant Spinal Kinetics, Inc. to serve and file its

Responsive Claim Construction Brief pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-5(b) be extended from

January 7, 2010 to January 13, 2010;

2. The date for Plaintiffs to serve and file their Reply Claim Construction

Brief pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-5(c) be extended from January 19, 2010 to February 1,

4-6 is continued from February 9, 2010 to February 23, 2010 at 9:00 a.m.
