                                       Counsel for Cross-Appellants

    Cross-Appellants Woolim Resources Development Company, Ltd.,

Woolim Energy Holdings, LLC and Woolim Construction Company, Ltd.

(Collectively, the “Woolim Appellants”) move for an extension of time to

file their Cross-Appellants’ Brief, saying.

    1. Cross-Appellants’ Brief is currently due on or before March 13,

2015. An extension of thirty (30) days would fall on a Sunday, and the

Woolim Appellants therefore seek an extension of thirty-one (31) days, to

Monday, April 13, 2015. There have been no previous extensions of time

for filing this brief.

    2. This extension is needed because the Woolim Appellants: (a) are

hampered in their appeal by delays inherent to a Korean bankruptcy

proceeding, (b) need time to find new counsel, and (c) need to distill

complex arguments from a substantial trial record. The Reporter’s Record

                                                                        2
shows more than 12 days of trial, and the Woolim Appellants’ Motion for

New Trial is more than thirty five (35) pages in length.

   3. Counsel for appellants Curocom Energy, LLC and Curo Holdings

Co., Ltd. indicated those appellants do not oppose this motion.

   WHEREFORE, Kim respectfully requests that Cross-Appellants

Woolim Resources Development Company, Ltd., Woolim Energy Holdings,

LLC and Woolim Construction Company, Ltd. be granted an additional

thirty-one (31) days to file their Cross-Appellants’ Brief, and for any such

other and further relief to which they may be justly entitled.

                                       Respectfully submitted,

                                       THE KIM LAW FIRM
