DECLARATION of Justin R. Gaudio regarding memorandum in support of motion 19

Exhibit 1

(Exhibit 2)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Plaintiff's motion for leave to file under seal 3, ex parte motion for a temporary restraining order 13, and motion for electronic service of process 18 are granted. Plaintiff's submissions establish that, were Defendants to learn of these proceedings before the execution of Plaintiff's requested preliminary injunctive relief, there is a significant risk that Defendants could destroy relevant documentary evidence and hide or transfer assets beyond the reach of the Court. Accordingly, subject to unsealing at an appropriate time, Plaintiff may for now file under seal the documents identified in the motion to seal and appearing at docket entries 2 and 17. The accompanying Temporary Restraining Order shall also be placed under seal. In addition, for the purpose of the motions cited above, Plaintiff's filings support proceeding (for the time being) on an ex parte basis. Specifically, and as noted above, were defendants to be informed of this proceeding before a TRO could issue, it is likely assets and websites would be redirected, thus defeating Plaintiff's interests in identifying defendants, stopping Defendants' infringing conduct, and obtaining an accounting. In addition, the evidence submitted by Plaintiff shows a likelihood of success on the merits (including evidence of active infringement and sales into Illinois), that the harm to Plaintiff is irreparable, and that an injunction is in the public interest. An injunction serves the public interest because of the consumer confusion caused by counterfeit goods, and there is no countervailing harm to defendants from an order directing them to stop infringement. Electronic service of process does not violate any treaty and is consistent with due process because it effectively communicates the pendency of this action to Defendants. As other judges in this District have noted, there may be reason to question both the propriety of the joinder of all Defendants in this one action and whether Plaintiff will pursue an accounting (which Plaintiff asserts as justification for an asset freeze), but at this preliminary stage, the court is persuaded that Plaintiff has provided sufficient evidence of coordinated activity and the prospect of an accounting to justify the requested relief as to all Defendants. Expedited discovery is warranted to identify defendants and to implement the asset freeze. If any defendant appears and objects, the court will revisit the asset freeze and joinder. Enter Sealed Temporary Restraining Order. Mailed notice

Declaration of Trevor C. Talhami

(Exhibit A)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Before the Court is Plaintiff's motion [24] for entry of a preliminary injunction. In connection with that motion, Plaintiff must serve all Defendants with the following statement: "The Court has taken the motion for a preliminary injunction under advisement and will consider the motion unopposed if no Defendant appears and objects by 5/31/2023." If no objections are filed by that date, the Court will consider the motion unopposed. Plaintiff must serve this minute order upon all remaining Defendants within one business day of its entry on the docket and must promptly file proof of that service. For the reasons stated in the Court's order entering the TRO, the TRO is extended to and including the date on which the Court adjudicates the motion for a preliminary injunction. See H-D Mich., LLC v. Hellenic Duty Free Shops S.A., 694 F.3d 827, 843-45 (7th Cir. 2012). If this extension exceeds the maximum duration for a TRO under FRCP 65(b), the extension "becomes in effect a preliminary injunction that is appealable, but the order remains effective." Id. at 844.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Defendant Eunvabir's unopposed motion [45] for an extension of time to answer is granted. Plaintiffs' motion [40] to strike a response [35] and attorney appearance [30] is granted for the reasons provided by Plaintiffs; no response to the motion was filed, and in any event, the Court cannot find any evidence that any of the putative defendants listed in the response [35] are actually defendants in this case. Accordingly, the motion to strike [40] is granted. See Local Rule 5.6. Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction [24] is granted. Plaintiff's filings establish that it has acted expeditiously to protect its interests and that there remains a significant risk Defendants will transfer relevant assets beyond the Court's reach. For these reasons, as well as the reasons provided in the whole of Plaintiff's filings and as stated by the Court in connection with entry of the TRO, the Court is persuaded that Plaintiff has satisfied the requirements for a preliminary injunction. In addition, the Court finds that the balance of harms favors Plaintiff and that a preliminary injunction serves the public interest by, among other things, protecting consumers from the marketing of counterfeit goods. Plaintiff has also certified and established [28] that it provided electronic notice to Defendants of the pendency of this case and provided a link to a website containing relevant case documents, but no objection to the motion for a preliminary injunction has been filed on behalf of any Defendant. Enter preliminary injunction order. Plaintiff's counsel is directed to ensure that all Defendants listed on Schedule A are added to the Court's docket within five business days. The Clerk is requested to unseal any previously sealed documents. Mailed notice
