Re: Magnequench International, Inc.
v. Sony Corp., et al.
Civil Action No. 04-135 GMS
Dear Judge Sleet:
Along with Scott M. Gettleson of Katten Muchin Zavis Rosenman in Chicago, I
represent defendants TEAC Corporation and TEAC America, Inc. (collectively "TEAC") in this
action. I write to confirm the discussion that Mr. Gettleson and I had earlier today with Cynthia
of your staff Specifically, we informed Cynthia that TEAC and Magnequench are very close to
resolving their dispute. The negotiations between TEAC and Magnequench have now reached
the point at which the only remaining issue is the language to be used, but not the concepts
embodied, in two paragraphs of a fonnal written settlement agreement. It is highly likely that
TEAC and Magnequench will successfully finalize their negotiations within the next few days.
In view of the advanced stage of the negotiations, and also in consideration of the
fact that TEAC would incur substantial expense if its representatives were required to participate
in the meetings that the Court has scheduled for the next two days, Cynthia confirmed to us that
attendance by TEAC will not be required. We very much appreciate the Court’s understanding

and its willingness to enable TEAC to avoid substantial expense. We expect to file an
appropriate stipulation of dismissal early next week.
Respectfully,
