personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this declaration and if called as a witness,

2. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a tre and correct copy of the letter
10

dated September 12, 2007, sent to Defendants' counsel, John G. Michael, Esq. of the

forth at length.
3. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of the letter
14
15
16 17
18
dated September 12, 2007, sent by Mr. Michael to BPWCP, and is incorporated herein
as though fully set forth at length.
4. I sent a letter dated September 13, 2007 to Mr. Michael, on behalf
19
of BPWCP and ARCO, requesting that the Defendants immediately cease the
trademark and trade name violations and stop using proprietary items. A tre and
20
21
correct copy of the September 13, 2007 letter is attached hereto as Exhibit C, and is
22
23
incorporated herein as though fully set forth at length. As of September 28, 2007,
Defendants were continuing to violate BPWCP and ARCO's trademark-protected and
proprietary interests.
5. Prior to filing the original complaint (on September 17, 2007), I
24

had a telephone conversation with Mr. Michael to advise him that BPWCP was filing
a Complaint against Defendants. In addition to asking whether Mr. Michael was
authorized to accept service on behalf of the Defendants, I informed him that I

believed Defendants were continuing to infringe upon various registered trademarks.

6. On October 8, 2007, I contacted Mr. Michael to advise that
BPWCP would be filing a First Amended Complaint to include claims for trademark
4
5
violation and moreover, would be filing a Temporary Restraining Order to restrain
Defendants from their continued trademark violations. I informed Mr. Michael that if
I did not hear back from him by Monday, October 15,2007, we would proceed. As of
today's date I have not heard from Mr. Michael and it is my understanding that
6

Defendants' trademark infringement persists.

Accordingly, on October 18, 2007, I had my process server

Faquiryan)1 with the documents which BPWCP and ARCO have filed in support of
