Exhibit 4

EXHIBIT by Plaintiff Converse Inc. Amended Schedule A regarding amended complaint, [11]

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The motion [3] for leave to file under seal is terminated in light of the filing of the public Amended Complaint and Amended Schedule A, R. 11, 12. Initial tracking status hearing set for 06/07/2024 at 8:30 a.m. to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the Court will set the case schedule after reviewing the written status report. The parties must file a joint initial status report with the content described in the attached status report requirements by 05/30/2024. Plaintiff must still file the report even if Defendants have not responded to requests to craft a joint report. If not all Defendants have been served, then Plaintiff must complete the part of the report on the progress of service. Also, counsel (or the parties, if proceeding pro se) must carefully review Judge Chang's Case Management Procedures, available online at ilnd.uscourts.gov (navigate to Judges / District Judges / Judge Edmond E. Chang). Because the Procedures are occasionally revised, counsel (or the party, if proceeding pro se) must read them anew even if the counsel or the party has appeared before Judge Chang in other cases.

If there is anything in the discovery response that renders physical-address feasible, then the Plaintiff shall inform the court. The status-report deadline of 05/30/2024 remains in place for now.
