On April 21, 2010, the Court granted Plaintiff Halo Electronics, Inc. (“Halo”) and

Defendants Elec & Eltek (USA) Corporation (“E&E (USA)”) and Wurth Electronics Midcom, Inc.

(“Midcom”)’s stipulation and request to extend the time for Halo to respond to E&E (USA) and

Midcom’s respective Answers and Counterclaims to Halo’s First Amended Complaint (Doc. Nos.

168 and 170, respectively) from April 19, 2010 until, and including May 3, 2010, to provide the

parties an opportunity to meet and confer on Halo’s motion to strike the inequitable conduct

allegations in E&E (USA) and Midcom’s Answers, which Halo currently intends to file with its

Answers to E&E (USA) and Midcom’s Counterclaims. (Doc. No. 179)

On May 6, 2010, the Court granted Halo, E&E (USA) and Midcom’s stipulation and

request to further extend the time for Halo to respond to E&E (USA) and Midcom’s respective

Answers and Counterclaims to Halo’s Amended Complaint (Doc. Nos. 168 and 170, respectively)

from May 3, 2010 until, and including May 17, 2010 to further meet and confer on the above

identified issues and potential amended answers by E&E (USA) and Midcom to Halo’s First

Amended Complaint. (Doc. No. 189) E&E (USA) has advised Halo that it intends to file an

amended answer to Halo’s First Amended Complaint on May 17, 2010.

Halo and Midcom have reached a settlement and are in the process of memorializing the

agreement. In order to allow Halo and Midcom sufficient time to finalize a resolution of this

matter, Halo and Midcom, by and through their counsel, hereby stipulate and respectfully propose

an extension for Halo to file its response to Midcom’s Answer and Counterclaims to Halo’s First

Amended Complaint (Doc. No. 170), until and including June 7, 2010.

The parties do not believe that the proposed extension of time will alter the date of any

event or deadline already fixed by Court Order.
