# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Commission instituted this investigation on November 25, 2008, based on the complaint of Masai Marketing & Trading AG of Romanshorn, Switzerland and Masai USA Corp. of Haley, Idaho (“Complainants”). 73 FR 73884 (Nov. 25, 2008). The complaint, as supplemented, alleges violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337) in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain active comfort footwear that infringes certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 6,341,432. Complainants named as respondents RYN Korea Co., Ltd. of Seoul, Korea; Main d/b/a WalkingShoesPlus.com of Los Angeles, California; and Feet First Inc. of Boca Raton, Florida. 

On January 30, 2009, Complainants filed a motion seeking leave to amend the complaint and notice of investigation to add three additional respondents to the investigation. On February 11, 2009, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 4) in which he determined to grant the motion in part and amend the notice of investigation to add as respondents The Tannery of Cambridge, Massachusetts and A Better Way to Health of West Melbourne, Florida. No party petitioned for review of the ID. 

The Commission has determined not to review the ID. 

The authority for the Commission's determination is contained in section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in section 210.42(h) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.42(h)). 

By order of the Commission. 

Issued: March 11, 2009.
