TO THE COURT AND TO ALL PARTIES AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

This Stipulation is made pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b), Local Rule 16-2(e) and Local 

Rule 7-12 between Defendant and Counterclaim Plaintiff USPA Accessories, LLC (“USPA”), 

on the one hand, and Plaintiff and Counterclaim Defendant Blue Marlin Corp. (“Blue Marlin”), 

on the other hand, through their undersigned counsel of record, with reference to the following: 

A. An Initial Case Management Conference was held by the Court on October 12, 

2007. At that conference, the Court set a further, Interim Case Management Conference for 

February 29, 2008. 

B. On August 13, 2007, third party creditors of Blue Marlin commenced an 

involuntary bankruptcy proceeding against Blue Marlin pursuant to Chapter 7 of the United 

States Bankruptcy Code (“Chapter 7 Proceeding”). The Chapter 7 Proceeding is pending in the 

United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division 

(“Bankruptcy Court”), case number 07-31041 (Hon. Dennis Montali). 

C. Blue Marlin did not disclose the existence of the Chapter 7 Proceeding to USPA 

or this Court before or at the Initial Case Management Conference of October 12, 2007. 

D. USPA first learned of the Chapter 7 Proceeding during informal settlement 

discussions between the parties which took place in December 2007. Upon learning of the 

Chapter 7 Proceeding, USPA evaluated the impact of the bankruptcy proceedings and 

settlement alternatives. 

E. The parties require further time to evaluate the impact and status of the 

Chapter 7 Proceeding on this action, including USPA’s counterclaims against Blue Marlin and 

any potential settlement. 

Accordingly, in order to promote the goals of judicial economy and fairness, the parties 

hereto hereby stipulate and agree as follows: 

1. The Interim Case Management Conference is continued to March 28, 

2008 at 8:30 a.m., or as soon thereafter as the Court’s calendar permits.
