We will agree to your proposal, as long as the stipulation also extends our time to file a reply brief by two weeks (putting our respective deadlines at August 25 and September 15). Please let me know if that works.

Relately, | want to reiterate that we are prepared to make a modest payment to settle this matter—but it would have to be much closer to our latest offer than your latest counterproposal. | will connect with Kimball separately about that.

Thanks,
