`importantly. the portion of clothing that recedes downward may be either shallow or more
`pronounced. §ee US. Patent No. ?,B14.575 col. 3 ins. 1-2; US, Patent No. 7,900,276 col. 3 Ins. 7781 As
`such. even a small dip is covered by the Destination Maternity patents.
`
`In light of the above information. we request that you provide on or before May 27, 2011 a
`detailed explanation that is sufficient to remova the M'Chic products from the ambit of the claims of the
`Destination Maternity patents. Destination Maternity seeks assurance that its intellectual property rights
`are not being infringed.
