`Re:
`
`Destination Maternity Corporation - M'Chic LLC
`
`Dear Mr. Lehrer:
`
`Thank you for your May 17, 2011 letter in which you assert that M'Chic does not infringe because
`its jeans do not recede downward. Destination Maternity disagrees. M'Chic’s ieans recede downward in
`the same manner as shown in Destination Malemiiy’s patent figures,

`importantly. the portion 6?clothing that recedes downward may be either shallow or more -.
`pronounced §fi U.S. Patent No, ?.614.575 col 3 ins. 1-2; U.S. Patent No. 7.900.276 col. 3 Ins. 743. 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 Max 27, 2011 a
`detailed explanation that is sufficient to remove 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.

`
`Very truly yours.
