`
`3.
`
`I have reviewed Plaintiff’s Unopposed Motion for a Third Extension
`
`of Time for Defendants to Respond to the Complaint. SIPCO and IPCO do not
`
`oppose that motion.
`
`4.
`
`In the negotiations, Plaintiffs and Defendants have made substantive
`
`progress toward an agreement that would settle this litigation. Plaintiffs and
`
`Defendants have reached agreement on all but two significant issues. An extension
`
`will provide the parties more time to negotiate a license and settlement of this
`
`litigation. Defendants will diligently pursue reaching an agreement that will settle
`
`the present action.

`
`I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States
`
`of America that the foregoing is true and correct.
