STIPULATION

The parties, by and through their respective counsel of record, stipulate and agree

that the Initial Case Management Conference and related initial case management deadlines be

continued as set forth below. A. Prior Time Modifications

On November 20, 2007, this Court issued an order based on a stipulation of the

parties granting Defendant Durvet, Inc. ("Durvet") an extra 30 days, through and including

December 12, 2007, within which to respond to Plaintiff Farnam Companies, Inc.'s ("Farnam's")

Complaint. (Docket No. 8.)

B. Reasons For Requested Continuance

Durvet was given an extra 30 days to review, investigate, and respond to the

Complaint. The parties believe they will need a corresponding extension of time following

Durvet's response to the Complaint to evaluate the response and their respective positions going

forward, prepare for and accomplish the various case management-related obligations, and prepare

for the Initial Case Management Conference. The parties believe this brief extension will improve

the quality and efficiency of their Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(f) conference and Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a) initial

disclosures, as well as the subsequent Initial Case Management Conference before the Court. C. Proposed Change to Initial Case Management Conference and Related Deadlines

The parties stipulate and respectfully request that the Initial Case Management

Conference in this action be continued from the current date of January 25, 2008 to the new date

of February 22, 2008 at 8:30 a.m. In accordance with the provisions of the Order Setting Initial

Case Management Conference and ADR Deadlines (Docket No. 3) ("Initial CMC Order"), the

parties further stipulate and respectfully request that the other pre-Conference deadlines set forth
