STIPULATION WHEREAS, on February 1, 2008, Plaintiff KNOLL, INC. ("Knoll") filed suit for trademark

3 infringement, unfair competition and related claims against, Defendants DANRICK COMMERCE 4 GROUP, LLC a/k/a MODERNCOLLECTIONS.COM ("Danrick "), and DANNY LOUIE 5 ("Louie"). 6 WHEREAS, after obtaining a 15-day stipulated extension of time to respond to the

7 Complaint, on March 12, 2008, Danrick and Louie (collectively "Defendants") filed their Answer to 8 Knoll's Complaint and Danrick filed its Counterclaims against Knoll. 9 10 WHEREAS, Knoll's response to the Counterclaims is currently due on April 1, 2008. WHEREAS, in light of the challenge to the validity of the Knoll trademarks asserted by the

11 plaintiff in another related Action, entitled Alphaville Design, Inc., vs. Knoll, Inc., Case No. 07-CV12 05569 MHP, the parties are negotiating a stipulation and proposed order to stay this Action. 13 WHEREAS, Knoll and Danrick agree that the time for Knoll to respond to the

14 Counterclaims should be continued to help facilitate these negotiations and is in the interests of 15 judicial economy and conserving the resources of the parties. 16 WHEREAS, this is the first extension sought in relation to the Counterclaims, this extension

17 is not for the purpose of delay, and the parties believe that this extension of time will not affect any 18 dates that have been set by the Court. 19 ACCORDINGLY, the parties, by and through their undersigned counsel, HEREBY

20 STIPULATE that Knoll's response to the Counterclaims filed by Danrick, which was originally due 21 on April 1, 2008, may be filed and served up to and including May 1, 2008. 22 Dated: March 31, 2008 23 24 /s/ Nathaniel Bruno 25 By: Neil A.
