Spaghetti Warehouse is a well-known Italian restaurant chain geared towards\n\nfamilies with five locations in two U.S. states: four in Ohio and one in New York. The chain\n\nstarted in 1972 in Dallas, Texas, and at one point had spread throughout the southern and eastern\n\nparts of the United States. Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s unique characteristic is that many of its older\n\nlocations are situated in renovated, historic buildings.\n\n            9.    Spaghetti Warehouse has developed a brand using the name \u201cSpaghetti\n\nWarehouse\u201d (the \u201cBrand\u201d), including the registered trademarks (the \u201cMarks\u201d), a restaurant/food\n\nservice concept and system, proprietary materials and methods, know-how, trade secrets, recipes,\n\nmenus, trade dress, logos, domain names (including www.meatballs.com), and other intellectual\n\nproperty (the \u201cIntellectual Property\u201d).\n\n            10.

In accordance with the termination of the License, Defendant was to stop using all\n\nMarks or other Licensed Property immediately. This includes removing all signs, advertisements,\n\nand promotional materials\n\n            36.       Because the License has been terminated, Defendant lost all rights to the Licensed\n\nProperty and Marks related to \u201cSpaghetti Warehouse,\u201d including but not limited to, the\n\nwww.meatballs.com website.\n\n            37.

Defendant's breach of the License gives rise to Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s claims and\n\ndamages herein.\n\n            39.       Notwithstanding the termination of the License, Defendant and its agents continue\n\nto use the Licensed Property in the operation of its restaurants and continue to market and promote\n\nits restaurants using the Licensed Property.\n\n            40.       Defendant\u2019s use of the Licensed Property and sale of purported Spaghetti\n\nWarehouse products is without the license or consent of Spaghetti Warehouse, and has caused or\n\nis likely to cause mistake, confusion, or deception in the minds of the public as to source,\n\naffiliation, and sponsorship.\n\n\n\n\n            15\n                 See Exhibit C, June 23, 2025, Notice of Termination of License Agreement.\n\nCOMPLAINT FOR PRELIMINARY AND PERMANENT INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, DAMAGES, AND OTHER\nRELIEF \u2013 PAGE 8\n1659701.1\n\n                                                                               APPENDIX 000008\n\fCase\n  Case\n     3:25-cv-02727-E\n        3:25-cv-02727-E Document\n                          Document\n                                 151 Filed\n                                      Filed03/13/26\n                                            10/07/25                   Page\n                                                                        Page11\n                                                                             9 of 77\n                                                                                  16       PageID 162\n                                                                                                  9\n\n            41.   In addition to the fact that Defendant offers similar products to products offered by\n\nSpaghetti Warehouse and continues to use Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s name at its restaurant, the\n\nproducts provided by Defendant using the Licensed Property are offered to the same class of\n\nconsumers as those who patronize authorized Spaghetti Warehouse restaurants.\n\n            42.   Upon seeing the familiar trademarks and other Licensed Property through\n\nDefendant\u2019s unauthorized use thereof, consumers will be deceived into concluding that\n\nDefendant\u2019s restaurants, and the products and services offered and sold in connection therewith,\n\nare subject to Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s supervision, are sponsored or endorsed by Spaghetti\n\nWarehouse, and bear the marks pursuant to Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s authority and permission.\n\n            43.   So long as Defendant and its agents continue to use the Licensed Property in\n\nconnection with its restaurant\u2019s operation, consumers have no practical way of knowing that\n\nDefendant\u2019s former Spaghetti Warehouse is no longer affiliated with, sponsored, authorized, or\n\nendorsed by Spaghetti Warehouse. As a result, any consumer dissatisfaction with Defendant\u2019s\n\nrestaurant, or with the products and services offered in connection therewith, will be attributed to\n\nSpaghetti Warehouse and the entire Spaghetti Warehouse network.\n\n            44.   Defendant has received actual notice of its violation and infringement of the\n\nLicensed Property and has constructive notice of Spaghetti Warehouse\u2019s rights in the trademarks\n\nand the registrations thereof pursuant to 15 USC \u00a7 1072.\n\n            45.   Defendant\u2019s continued infringement is willful, malicious, fraudulent, and\n\ndeliberate.\n\n            46.   Spaghetti Warehouse has at all times complied with and fully performed all of its\n\nobligations under the License Agreement.\n\n\n\n\nCOMPLAINT FOR PRELIMINARY AND PERMANENT INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, DAMAGES, AND OTHER\nRELIEF \u2013 PAGE 9\n1659701.1\n\n                                                                              APPENDIX 000009\n\fCase\n Case3:25-cv-02727-E\n      3:25-cv-02727-E Document\n                       Document15\n                                1                  Filed 03/13/26\n                                                         10/07/25       Page 12\n                                                                             10 of 77\n                                                                                   16        PageID 163\n                                                                                                    10\n\n                                               COUNT I\n\n                       LANHAM ACT - TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT\n\n            47.

This demand letter\nserves as written notice of default in accordance with Section 7.\n\nOn more than one occasion, Hwan Pak, on behalf of SWRI, has notified Anthony Schlur of SWCNY by direct\ncommunication on its lack of providing the 2023 Revenue numbers as well as the failure to pay the License Fee. Yet as\nof this date, the 2023 Revenue numbers and the License Fee remain outstanding.\n\nFor the avoidance of any doubt, this letter is a formal notice of an Event of Default for failure to pay and a demand\nfor a full account and payment of the 2023 License Fees.\n\nDemand is hereby made that SWCNY remit the 2023 Revenue report to Hwan Pak at hwan.pak@bldbrands.com,\n\nand\n\nremit the License Fee for the 2023 Fiscal Year to Spaghetti Warehouse Restaurants, Inc., 949 South Coast Dr, #450,\nCosta Mesa, CA 92626\n\nBe advised, should SWCNY fail to cure this default within 30 days of the email receipt of this letter, in accordance\nwith Section 5.3 SWRI may, at its option, and without waiving any rights or remedies under the contract or at\nlaw or in equity, seek damages, and terminate the License and all of Licensee's rights under the License\nwould terminate e\ufb00ective (i) immediately upon the date that Licensor gives written notice of termination, (ii)\nupon such other date as may be set forth in such notice of termination, or (iii) at SWRI\u2019s option atomically\nupon the lapse of the speci\ufb01ed period following, an Event of Default.\n\nSWRI expressly reserves its rights and remedies available under the contract and at law.\n\nSincerely,\n\n\n\n\nCarolyn H.

This form, approved by the Judicial Conference of the United States in September 1974, is\nrequired for the use of the Clerk of Court for the purpose of initiating the civil docket sheet. Consequently, a civil cover sheet is submitted to the Clerk of\nCourt for each civil complaint filed. The attorney filing a case should complete the form as follows:\n\nI.(a)    Plaintiffs-Defendants. Enter names (last, first, middle initial) of plaintiff and defendant. If the plaintiff or defendant is a government agency, use\n         only the full name or standard abbreviations. If the plaintiff or defendant is an official within a government agency, identify first the agency and then\n         the official, giving both name and title.\n  (b)    County of Residence. For each civil case filed, except U.S. plaintiff cases, enter the name of the county where the first listed plaintiff resides at the\n         time of filing. In U.S. plaintiff cases, enter the name of the county in which the first listed defendant resides at the time of filing. (NOTE: In land\n         condemnation cases, the county of residence of the \"defendant\" is the location of the tract of land involved.)\n  (c)    Attorneys. Enter the firm name, address, telephone number, and attorney of record. If there are several attorneys, list them on an attachment, noting\n         in this section \"(see attachment)\".\n\n,,\u0011      Jurisdiction. The basis of jurisdiction is set forth under Rule 8(a), F.R.Cv.P., which requires that jurisdictions be shown in pleadings. Place an \"X\"\n        in one of the boxes. If there is more than one basis of jurisdiction, precedence is given in the order shown below.\n        United States plaintiff. (1) Jurisdiction based on 28 U.S.C. 1345 and 1348. Suits by agencies and officers of the United States are included here.\n        United States defendant. (2) When the plaintiff is suing the United States, its officers or agencies, place an \"X\" in this box.\n        Federal question. (3) This refers to suits under 28 U.S.C. 1331, where jurisdiction arises under the Constitution of the United States, an amendment\n        to the Constitution, an act of Congress or a treaty of the United States. In cases where the U.S. is a party, the U.S. plaintiff or defendant code takes\n        precedence, and box 1 or 2 should be marked.\n        Diversity of citizenship. (4) This refers to suits under 28 U.S.C. 1332, where parties are citizens of different states. When Box 4 is checked, the\n        citizenship of the different parties must be checked. (See Section III below; NOTE: federal question actions take precedence over diversity\n        cases.)\n\n,,,\u0011     Residence (citizenship) of Principal Parties. This section of the JS 44 is to be completed if diversity of citizenship was indicated above. Mark this\n        section for each principal party.\n\n,9\u0011      Nature of Suit. Place an \"X\" in the appropriate box. If there are multiple nature of suit codes associated with the case, pick the nature of suit code\n        that is most applicable. Click here for: Nature of Suit Code Descriptions.\n\n9\u0011       Origin. Place an \"X\" in one of the seven boxes.\n        Original Proceedings.

(2) Proceedings initiated in state courts may be removed to the district courts under Title 28 U.S.C., Section 1441.\n        Remanded from Appellate Court. (3) Check this box for cases remanded to the district court for further action. Use the date of remand as the filing\n        date.\n        Reinstated or Reopened. (4) Check this box for cases reinstated or reopened in the district court. Use the reopening date as the filing date.\n        Transferred from Another District. (5) For cases transferred under Title 28 U.S.C. Section 1404(a). Do not use this for within district transfers or\n        multidistrict litigation transfers.\n        Multidistrict Litigation \u2013 Transfer. (6) Check this box when a multidistrict case is transferred into the district under authority of Title 28 U.S.C.\n        Section 1407.\n        Multidistrict Litigation \u2013 Direct File. (8) Check this box when a multidistrict case is filed in the same district as the Master MDL docket.\u0003PLEASE\n        NOTE THAT THERE IS NOT AN ORIGIN CODE 7. Origin Code 7 was used for historical records and is no longer relevant due to\u0003changes in\n        statute.\n\n9,\u0011      Cause of Action. Report the civil statute directly related to the cause of action and give a brief description of the cause. Do not cite jurisdictional\n        statutes unless diversity.

I am over 18 years of age, of sound mind, and otherwise competent to make this\n\nDeclaration. The evidence set out in the foregoing Declaration is based on my personal knowledge.\n\n       2.      I am lead counsel for Plaintiff and submit this Declaration in support of Plaintiff\u2019s\n\nMotion for Default Judgment and claim for attorney\u2019s fees.\n\n       3.      I am a partner in the law firm of Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith, LLP, the firm\n\nthat represents Plaintiff in the above-referenced lawsuit. Prior to joining Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard\n\n& Smith, LLP, I was a partner at Cowles & Thompson, P.C.\n\n       4.      I have personal knowledge of the facts stated herein and, if called to testify, would\n\ncompetently testify thereto.\n\n       5.      Plaintiff, Spaghetti Warehouse, is a well-known restaurant chain that is a Texas\n\ncorporation with its principal place of business in Dallas, Texas.\n\n       6.      Defendant is a New York limited liability company with its principal place of\n\nbusiness in Rye, New York. I am familiar with the Defendant and its owners.\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S. ERICK \u2013 PAGE 1\n\n                                                                          APPENDIX 000061\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E        Document 15        Filed 03/13/26       Page 59 of 77        PageID 210\n\n\n\n       7.      This action arises under the Lanham Act and related statutes; the Court has subject-\n\nmatter jurisdiction under 15 U.S.C. \u00a7 1121(a), 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1331, 1332(a)(1), 1338(a)-(b), and\n\nsupplemental jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1367(a). I personally drafted all of the pleadings in\n\nthis lawsuit and have performed all of the legal work required to obtain this default judgment.\n\n       8.      On October 7, 2025, I filed Plaintiff\u2019s Original Complaint for Permanent and\n\nInjunctive Relief, Damages, and Other Relief. (Doc. 1).\n\n       9.      On October 8, 2025, the Court issued a Summons as to Defendant, Spaghetti\n\nWarehouse Restaurant of CNY, LLC. (Doc. 6).\n\n       10.     On October 27, 2025, in accordance with the Fed. R. Civ. P. 4, Defendant was\n\nserved, and the Return of Service was filed on November 12, 2025. (Doc. 8).\n\n       11.     Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(a)(1)(A)(i), Defendant was required to file an answer\n\nor other responsive pleading within 21 days after being served. Because service was affected on\n\nOctober 27, 2025, Defendant's answer or other responsive pleading was due on or before\n\nNovember 17, 2025.\n\n       12.     On December 5, 2025, the Clerk of the Court entered a default against Defendant.\n\n(Doc. 12).\n\n       13.     To date, Defendant has failed to file an answer or other responsive pleading within\n\nthe time required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(a)(1)(A)(i).\n\n       14.     As previously sworn, Defendant is not an infant, incompetent person, in active\n\nmilitary service of the United States of America or its officers or agents. (Doc. 11).\n\n       15.     Plaintiff retained me to represent it in connection with this lawsuit.\n\n       16.     Plaintiff agreed to pay my firm on an hourly basis. Payment of attorneys\u2019 fees was\n\nnot contingent on the outcome of the litigation. True and correct copies of the invoices submitted\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S. ERICK \u2013 PAGE 2\n\n                                                                          APPENDIX 000062\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E        Document 15         Filed 03/13/26       Page 60 of 77      PageID 211\n\n\n\nby my prior firm and this firm in this matter reflecting the services performed and fees charged,\n\nredacted to protect privileged and confidential matters, are attached hereto. The invoices reflect\n\nthe actual work performed by myself, and other lawyers and staff with detailed descriptions of the\n\nservices provided. The work consisted of: (i) investigating Plaintiff\u2019s claims; (ii) corresponding\n\nand communicating with Plaintiff, Defendant and other third parties; (iii) preparing and filing the\n\nOriginal and other litigation documents; and (iv) pursuing default judgment against Defendant.\n\n       17.     My hourly rate for this matter is $350.00 per hour.\n\n       18.     I have been licensed to practice law in the State of Texas since 2002, and I am\n\nBoard Certified in Civil Trial Law since 2023.\n\n       19.     Since 2002, I have been continuously and actively engaged in the practice of law\n\nthroughout the State of Texas. My practice has consisted primarily of complex commercial\n\nlitigation that includes intellectual property and federal court litigation. Based on my experience,\n\nI am familiar with the reasonable and customary charges for legal services, in the Dallas, Texas\n\narea in this type of action. I am familiar with the reasonable attorneys\u2019 fees for the same or similar\n\nwork that has been performed in connection with this matter. My hourly rate is both customary\n\nand reasonable in the Dallas, Texas market for the types of rendered and my experience level.\n\n       20.     Plaintiff seeks recovery of its attorneys\u2019 fees and costs incurred in defending its\n\ncopyrights and trademarks pursuant to breach of contract law, the Copyright Act and, alternatively\n\nunder the Lanham Act.\n\n       21.     The majority of the time reflected in the attached invoices was necessary for the\n\npursuit of Plaintiff\u2019s copyright and trademark claims against Defendant.\n\n       22.     After filing suit, it was very difficult finding and serving the Defendant. They did\n\nnot accept service and would not respond to any requests to accept service.\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S. ERICK \u2013 PAGE 3\n\n                                                                           APPENDIX 000063\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 15         Filed 03/13/26       Page 61 of 77       PageID 212\n\n\n\n        23.     Eventually, I had to serve the Defendant at their work addresses as they are both\n\nlicensed attorneys. It was only then did they communicate with me about this lawsuit.\n\n        24.     Despite numerous attempts to try and resolve this matter, or obtain any information\n\nfrom Defendant to determine Plaintiff\u2019s measure of damages, Defendant refused to participate and,\n\nto date, has not filed any response to the lawsuit or provided any information, even though it is\n\ncontractually obligated.\n\n        25.     I have also analyzed the reasonableness of the fees in light of the following factors\n\nset out in Johnson v. Georgia Highway Express, Inc., 488 F.2d 714, 717-7109 (5th Cir. 1974). The\n\nJohnson factors include: (1) the time and labor required; (2) the novelty and difficulty of the\n\nquestions; (3) the skill requisite to perform the legal service properly; (4) the preclusion of other\n\nemployment by the attorney due to acceptance of the case; (5) the customary fee; (6) whether the\n\nfee is fixed or contingent; (7) time limitations imposed by the client or the circumstances; (8) the\n\namount involved and the results obtained; (9) the experience, reputation, and ability of the\n\nattorneys; (10) the undesirability of the case; (11) the nature and length of the professional\n\nrelationship with the client; and (12) awards in similar cases. Based on my analysis of the above\n\nfactors, which I discuss below, I find that the fees Plaintiff seeks to recover are reasonable and\n\nwere necessary.\n\n        26.     Factor 1 (Time and Labor Required): Plaintiff was required to retain attorneys\n\nspecializing in copyright and trademark litigation to pursue its claims in this matter. The firm\n\nfocused its efforts on obtaining a quick and efficient resolution of all claims in this matter. In light\n\nof Plaintiff\u2019s objective to obtain injunctive relief preventing Defendant\u2019s ongoing infringement,\n\nthe firm worked extremely efficiently to obtain the desired result, and its fees were reasonable in\n\nlight of time and labor required to pursue the claims.\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S. ERICK \u2013 PAGE 4\n\n                                                                            APPENDIX 000064\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 15        Filed 03/13/26       Page 62 of 77       PageID 213\n\n\n\n       27.     Factor 2 & 3 (Novelty and Difficulty of the Questions/Skill Required): The proper\n\npursuit of Plaintiff\u2019s claims in this matter required expertise in copyright and trademark litigation,\n\nwhich expertise the firm provided. Although the case presented no questions that were particularly\n\nnovel or difficult, the firm\u2019s fees were relatively low in light of the results sought, and were\n\ntherefore reasonable under this factor.\n\n       28.     Factor 4 (Preclusion of other Employment): Other than time spent working on this\n\nmatter, the firm\u2019s engagement on this matter has not precluded the firm\u2019s attorneys from working\n\non other matters. However, based on my experience, the firm\u2019s fees were reasonable in light of\n\nthis factor because, as discussed above, the fees are set at market rates for intellectual property\n\nlitigation in the Dallas, Texas area.\n\n       29.     Factors 5 & 12 (Customary Fee/Awards in Similar Cases): I have handled several\n\ncopyright and trademark matters through judgment and default judgment. Although every matter\n\nis unique, I believe that the firm\u2019s fees charged pursuing this matter are equal to or less than the\n\nfees that would customarily be charged in the Dallas, Texas market to obtain similar results.\n\n       30.     Factor 6 (Whether the Fee Was Fixed or Contingent): The fee charged in this matter\n\nwas neither fixed or contingent on the results obtained. In light of the fact that the firm\u2019s rates are\n\nset to match the market and the amount of time spent on this matter were reasonable, the fees\n\ncharged were reasonable in light of this factor.\n\n       31.     Factor 7 (Time Limitations Imposed by the Client or Circumstances): Given\n\nDefendant\u2019s infringing activity despite termination notices Plaintiff, desired to get relief; as\n\nquickly and efficiently as possible. Defendant\u2019s failure to timely appear or participate has made\n\nthat particularly challenging. The firm\u2019s fees are reasonable in light of this factor.\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S.

Factor 8 (Amount Involved and Results Obtained): The          amount     of   money\n\ninvolved in Defendant\u2019s breach and infringement has been difficult to determine in light of\n\nDefendant\u2019s refusal to timely appear and participate in discovery. In addition to fees, Plaintiff is\n\nseeking both injunctive relief and statutory damages, in addition to orders requiring Defendant to\n\nproduce financial records which it was contractually obligated to do under the License Agreement\n\nso that Plaintiff can determine the exact amount of licensing fees. The fees sought are reasonable\n\nin light of the relief sought.\n\n        33.     Factor 9 (Experience, Reputation, and Ability of Attorneys): The rates charged by\n\nthe firm were also reasonable considering the experience, reputation and abilities of the lawyers\n\nperforming the services. All timekeepers who performed work on this matter were qualified and\n\ntheir rates were commensurate with their levels of experience, as discussed above.\n\n        34.     Factor 10 (Undesirability of the Case): Although I would not characterize the case\n\nas undesirable, Defendant\u2019s refusal to timely appear and participate has presented frustration and\n\nchallenges of its own. Especially when the determination of damages relies on the records which\n\nDefendant has not produced. This factor therefore supports the reasonableness of the firm\u2019s fees.\n\n        35.     Factor 11 (Nature and Length of Client Relationship): The firm\u2019s fees in this matter\n\nare also reasonable in light of the nature and length of its relationship with Plaintiff. Plaintiff\n\nengaged the firm, and the undersigned attorney, to pursue this matter as well as provide other legal\n\nservices since 2020. Plaintiff has continued to place its trust and confidence in the undersigned\n\nattorney, and this firm, and further supports the argument that the fees charged are reasonable in\n\nlight of the level of service provided and results obtained, including in this matter.\n\n\n\n\n173216891.1 UNSWORN DECLARATION OF CASEY S.

(\"Spaghetti Warehouse\" or \"Plaintiff\"),\n\nseeks a default judgment against Defendant, Spaghetti Warehouse Restaurant of CNY, LLC\n\n(\"Defendant\"), under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b) because Defendant has failed to plead or otherwise\n\ndefend in this action, despite being properly served Plaintiff's Complaint for Preliminary and\n\nPermanent Injunctive Relief, Damages, and Other Relief (Doc. 1, filed on October 7, 2025, and\n\nserved on October 27, 2025, in accordance with Fed.

Plaintiff filed this action asserting claims for trademark infringement under the\n\nLanham Act and Texas law, unfair competition, dilution, and breach of contract based on\n\nDefendant's post-termination use of Plaintiff's licensed intellectual property and failure to\n\nperform obligations under a written License Agreement. Defendant was provided with written\n\nnotice of default and later written notice of termination of the License Agreement and cease and\n\ndesist but failed to cure. Defendant received notice of this Courts Default notice. Defendant\n\ncontinues to use Plaintiff's marks and other licensed property without authorization.\n\n         2.     Plaintiff respectfully requests entry of default judgment granting injunctive and\n\nmonetary relief consistent with the Complaint.\n\n                      BACKGROUND AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY\n\n         3.     Plaintiff is a Texas corporation with its principal place of business in Dallas,\n\nTexas.\n\n\n\n\n173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\nPAGE 4\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 14        Filed 03/13/26       Page 5 of 21      PageID 135\n\n\n\n         4.    Defendant is a New York limited liability company with its principal place of\n\nbusiness in Rye, New York.\n\n         5.    This action arises under the Lanham Act and related statutes; the Court has\n\nsubject-matter jurisdiction under 15 U.S.C. \u00a7 1121(a), 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1331, 1332(a)(1), 1338(a)-(b),\n\nand supplemental jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1367(a).\n\n         6.    Venue and personal jurisdiction are proper under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1391.\n\n         7.    On December 11, 2018, the parties entered a License Agreement under which\n\nPlaintiff granted Defendant a non-exclusive license to use Plaintiff's intellectual property and\n\nmarks at the licensed restaurant location. Appx. 20, Section 1.1 of the License, titled \u201cGrant.\u201d\n\n         8.    Defendant agreed to pay a license fee equal to one percent (1%) of monthly\n\nrevenues, payable within sixty (60) days following the end of each calendar year, and to pay a\n\n$5,000.00 renewal fee for each renewal term. Appx. 21, Section 1.5 of the License, titled \u201cFee.\u201d\n\n         9.    The Agreement provides for termination upon an Event of Default after written\n\nnotice and a failure to cure, with all rights to the marks ceasing upon termination, and for\n\nprevailing-party recovery of attorneys' fees. Appx. 22, Section 5.3.1 to 5.3.5 of the License, titled\n\n\u201cTermination.\u201d\n\n         10.   Defendant has breached the Agreement by failing to pay the required fees for\n\n2023, 2024, and 2025.\n\n         11.   Plaintiff issued a written Notice of Default regarding Defendant's failure to pay\n\nthe 2023 License Fee on October 7, 2024. Appx. 27.\n\n         12.   Defendant failed to cure. On June 23, 2025, Plaintiff issued a written Notice of\n\nTermination of the License Agreement and demanded that Defendant cease all use of Plaintiff's\n\nmarks and other licensed property. Appx. 28 \u2013 33.\n\n\n\n173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\nPAGE 5\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E          Document 14        Filed 03/13/26       Page 6 of 21      PageID 136\n\n\n\n         13.     Following termination, Defendant had no rights to continue using \"Spaghetti\n\nWarehouse\" or the www.meatballs.com domain as well as Plaintiff's licensed property and marks\n\nin connection with its restaurant, causing confusion and irreparable harm to Plaintiff's goodwill.\n\nAppx. 43 \u2013 48.\n\n         14.     Defendant has failed to pay License Fees for calendar years 2023, 2024, and the\n\nperiod January 1, 2025, through June 23, 2025 (the date of termination). The License Agreement\n\nrequires Defendant to pay a license fee equal to one percent (1%) of monthly revenues. Based on\n\nDefendant's revenue history and operations during this period, the unpaid license fees are\n\nestimated at $45,000. Id.\n\n         15.     Defendant has also failed to pay annual license renewal fees of $5,000 per year\n\nfor 2023, 2024, and 2025, totaling $15,000 in unpaid renewal fees. Id.\n\n         16.     After the termination of the License Agreement on June 23, 2025, Defendant\n\ncontinued unauthorized use of Plaintiff's trademarks, intellectual property, and licensed materials\n\nduring November and December 2025, causing additional damages to Plaintiff estimated at\n\n$10,000. Id.; Appx. 49 \u2013 60.\n\n         17.     After the termination of the License, Defendant issued gift cards bearing Plaintiff's\n\nSpaghetti Warehouse marks and branding, failed to honor those gift cards, and directed customers\n\nto contact Plaintiff for refunds. Plaintiff was forced to inform these customers that it did not own\n\nor operate Defendant's location and that only Defendant was responsible for refunds.

Defendant issued a public press release, using Plaintiff's trademark, to promote\n\nthe restaurant during the seasonally high revenue periods and announcing its closure after a final\n\nNew Year's Eve, intending to capitalize on the goodwill and loyalty of Plaintiff's brand.\n\nDefendant continues operating at the same location under a new business name, Click Stream\n\nStudios (a digital content marketing company), and markets its new business while continuing to\n\nuse Plaintiff's trademarks and goodwill. Defendant blatantly used Plaintiff's trademarks, knowing\n\nthey were in violation of the License Agreement, to extract profits for itself. Appx. 49 \u2013 60.\n\n         19.    Defendant only relinquished use of the license related to the restaurant after\n\nexhausting its value for Defendant's own commercial benefit, despite having actual knowledge\n\nof its obligations under the License Agreement and applicable trademark law. Defendant\n\ncontinues to promote its new business by using the Spaghetti Warehouse goodwill and loyalty of\n\nPlaintiff\u2019s Brand. Appx. 43 \u2013 48.\n\n         20.    The owners and operators of Defendant's restaurant are attorneys, Anthony Schlur\n\nand Patrick Dussol, who knew or should have known they were violating the License Agreement\n\nand trademark law through their continued unauthorized use of Plaintiff's intellectual property.\n\n         21.

On October 8, 2025, the Court issued a Summons as to Defendant, Spaghetti\n\nWarehouse Restaurant of CNY, LLC. (Doc. 6).\n\n         26.   On October 27, 2025, in accordance with the Fed. R. Civ. P. 4, Defendant was\n\nserved, and the Return of Service was filed on November 12, 2025. (Doc. 8).\n\n         27.   Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(a)(1)(A)(i), Defendant was required to file an\n\nanswer or other responsive pleading within 21 days after being served. Because service was\n\naffected on October 27, 2025, Defendant's answer or other responsive pleading was due on or\n\nbefore November 17, 2025.\n\n         28.   On December 5, 2025, the Clerk of the Court entered a default against Defendant.\n\n(Doc. 12).\n\n         29.

P. 55(b) provides for the entry of default judgment when a party\n\nagainst whom a judgment for affirmative relief is sought has failed to plead or otherwise defend.\n\nUpon entry of default, the well-pleaded factual allegations of the complaint, except those relating\n\nto the amount of damages, are taken as true.\n\n\n\n\n173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\nPAGE 8\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 14        Filed 03/13/26      Page 9 of 21      PageID 139\n\n\n\n         31.   Upon default, the well-pleaded allegations of the complaint except those relating\n\nto damages are deemed admitted. Nishimatsu Const. Co., Ltd. v. Houston Nat. Bank, 515 F.2d\n\n1200 (5th Cir. 1975).\n\n         32.   The decision to enter a default judgment lies within the district court's discretion,\n\nguided by whether (1) the default was willful; (2) the plaintiff would suffer prejudice absent\n\njudgment; and (3) the defendant has no meritorious defense. Lindsey v. Prive Corp., 161 F.3d\n\n886, 893 (5th Cir. 1998).\n\n         33.   Defendant is not a minor or an incompetent person.

Plaintiff moves this court for entry of a default judgment and permanent injunction\n\nagainst Defendant under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b). Plaintiff requests that the judgment be entered as\n\nfurther set forth in the attached proposed default judgment.\n\n         35.   Defendant has not appeared in this action and is not entitled to notice of this\n\napplication for entry of a default judgment.\n\n         36.   Defendant's failure to respond warrants entry of default judgment for Plaintiff.\n\n         37.   Plaintiff's claims are supported by the well-pleaded allegations in the Complaint,\n\nwhich are deemed admitted upon default.\n\n         38.   Plaintiff is prejudiced by Defendant's refusal to participate in the litigation, as\n\nPlaintiff is unable to obtain relief absent a judgment.\n\n         39.   There is no indication that Defendant possesses any meritorious defenses.\n\n\n\n\n173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\nPAGE 9\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 14         Filed 03/13/26       Page 10 of 21        PageID 140\n\n\n\n         40.

Upon the entry of default, all well-pleaded factual allegations of the complaint,\n\n except those relating to the amount of damages, are taken as true. Plaintiff's Complaint [Doc. 1]\n\n alleges facts sufficient to establish Defendant's liability on Plaintiff\u2019s causes of action.\n\n         42.     The Court may render default judgment against a party who has not timely filed a\n\n responsive pleading or otherwise defended the suit. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b)(2). The Court should\n\n enter a default judgment against Defendant because it has failed to timely answer or otherwise\n\n defend himself in this case. Moreover, Defendant is not an infant, incompetent person, or a\n\n military service member. Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(b)(2); 50 U.S.C. \u00a7 3931(b)(1)(A).\n\n         43.     Under Fed. R. Civ. P. 55, entry of default is a two-step process: (1) the entry of\n\n default and (2) the subsequent entry of a default judgment. Eisenhour v. Stafford, No. 9:12-CV-\n\n 62, 2013 WL 6212725, at *1 (E.D. Tex. Nov. 26, 2013)(internal citations omitted).

Plaintiff repeats and realleges the foregoing paragraphs of its Motion for Default\n\n Judgment as if fully set forth herein.\n\n           47.    Defendant's acts, practices, and conduct constitute an infringing use in interstate\n\n commerce of a reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation of the Marks, and\n\n Defendant's sale, offering for sale, distribution or advertising of goods and services under the\n\n Marks, or any designs similar thereto, is likely to cause confusion or mistake or to deceive the\n\n public in violation of 15 U.S.C. \u00a7 1114(l).\n\n           48.    As a direct and proximate result of Defendant's infringement, Plaintiff has been\n\n and is likely to be substantially injured in its business, including its goodwill and reputation,\n\n resulting in lost revenues and profits and diminished goodwill.\n\n           49.    Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law because the Marks are unique and\n\n represent to the public Plaintiff's identity, reputation, and goodwill, such that damages alone\n\n cannot fully compensate for Defendant's misconduct.\n\n           50.    Unless enjoined by the Court, Defendant and those acting in concert with them\n\n will continue to use and infringe the Marks, to Plaintiff's irreparable injury.\n\n           51.

Plaintiff repeats and realleges the foregoing paragraphs of its Motion for Default\n\n Judgment as if fully set forth herein.\n\n         53.    Defendant's acts, practices, and conduct constitute unfair competition, false\n\n designation of origin, and false or misleading descriptions or representations of fact, in that they\n\n are likely to cause confusion or to cause mistake, to deceive others as to the affiliation,\n\n connection, or association of the parties, and/or to misrepresent the nature, characteristics,\n\n qualities, or geographic origin of the parties' goods, services and commercial activities, all in\n\n violation of 15 U.S.C. \u00a7 1125(a).\n\n         54.    As a direct and proximate result of Defendant's unfair competition, Plaintiff has\n\n been and is likely to be substantially injured in its business, including its goodwill and reputation,\n\n resulting in lost revenues and profits and diminished goodwill.\n\n         55.    Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law because the Marks are unique and\n\n represent to the public Plaintiff's identity, reputation, and goodwill, such that damages alone\n\n cannot fully compensate Plaintiff for Defendant's misconduct.\n\n         56.    Unless enjoined by the Court, Defendant and those acting in concert with them\n\n will continue to compete unfairly with Plaintiff, to Plaintiff's irreparable injury. This threat of\n\n future injury to Plaintiff's business identity, goodwill, and reputation requires injunctive relief to\n\n prevent Defendant's continued unfair competition and to ameliorate and mitigate Plaintiff's\n\n injuries.\n\n         57.    Defendant\u2019s use of Plaintiffs Marks in commerce after Termination was not a\n\n random or accidental use.

Plaintiff repeats and realleges the foregoing paragraphs of its Motion for Default\n\n Judgment as if fully set forth herein.\n\n         59.      Defendant has failed and refused to perform its obligations under the License\n\n Agreement, including its obligations (i) to pay all amounts owed to Spaghetti Warehouse, (ii) to\n\n cease using the Licensed Property (iii) to surrender to Spaghetti Warehouse all materials bearing\n\n any of the Marks, and (iv) to discontinue all use of Spaghetti Warehouse's confidential and\n\n proprietary information.\n\n         60.      Unless and until Defendant is ordered to perform its post-termination obligations\n\n under the License Agreement, Plaintiff is likely to be substantially injured in its business,\n\n including its goodwill and reputation, resulting in lost revenues and profits and diminished\n\n goodwill, for which Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law.\n\n         61.      This threat of future injury to Plaintiff's business identity, goodwill, and reputation\n\n requires that Defendant be ordered to perform its contractual post-termination obligations under\n\n the License Agreement to prevent Defendant's continued breach and to ameliorate and mitigate\n\n Plaintiff's injuries.\n\n         62.      In addition to the injuries inflicted to Plaintiff's business identity, goodwill, and\n\n reputation, Plaintiff continues to be damaged in an amount equal to all outstanding monies owed\n\n under the License Agreement.\n\n         63.      Also, the License Agreement provides that in the event of any default on the part\n\n of either party, the party in default will pay the prevailing party, among other things, all\n\n reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the prevailing party in any legal action or other proceeding\n\n as a result of such default.\n\n\n\n 173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\n PAGE 13\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 14       Filed 03/13/26        Page 14 of 21     PageID 144\n\n\n\n         64.

Plaintiff repeats and realleges the foregoing paragraphs of its Motion for Default\n\n Judgment as if fully set forth herein.\n\n         66.     As a result of the public's association of the Spaghetti Warehouse marks with\n\n Plaintiff, Defendant's use and sale of deceptively similar products in connection with its\n\n restaurant is likely to cause confusion, mistake, and to deceive.\n\n         67.     Defendant has continued using Plaintiff's Marks with full prior knowledge of\n\n Plaintiff's rights to them and of the reputation of the Spaghetti Warehouse trademarks.\n\n         68.     Defendant's sale and use of the Marks were for the willful and calculated purpose\n\n of trading on Plaintiff's goodwill; further, Defendant have willfully promoted the restaurants in\n\n such a manner so as inevitably to suggest an association, affiliation, or sponsorship with, or\n\n approval by, Plaintiff and to cause, or be likely to cause, confusion, or mistake among purchasers\n\n as to the origin of Defendant's products, all to Defendant's gain and Plaintiff's damage.\n\n         69.     The conduct of Defendant violates and constitutes an infringement of Plaintiff's\n\n common-law rights in the Marks and constitutes improper and unfair competition with Plaintiff\n\n under the laws of the State of Texas.\n\n         70.     Defendant's conduct has damaged and will continue to damage Plaintiff's goodwill\n\n and reputation and will further cause irreparable injury unless restrained by this Court.\n\n         71.     To stop Defendant\u2019s continued unauthorized use of the Marks, Plaintiff has no\n\n adequate remedy at law.\n\n\n 173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\n PAGE 14\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E          Document 14         Filed 03/13/26       Page 15 of 21        PageID 145\n\n\n\n  COUNT V \u2013 TRADEMARK DILUTION AND INJURY TO BUSINESS REPUTATION\n\n         72.

Defendant's conduct will cause a likelihood of dilution of the distinctive and\n\n valuable quality of Plaintiff's trademarks and a likelihood of injury to Plaintiff's business\n\n reputation in violation of the laws of the State of Texas, particularly Tex. Bus. & Com. Code\n\n Ann. \u00a7 16.103 (West), unless enjoined by this Court.\n\n         74.

In any civil action under\n\n this title, the court in its discretion may allow the recovery of full costs by or against any party\n\n other than the United States or an officer thereof. Except as otherwise provided by this title, the\n\n court may also award a reasonable attorney's fee to the prevailing party as part of the costs. 17\n\n U.S.C.A. \u00a7 505.\n\n         76.

In assessing damages the\n\n court may enter judgment, according to the circumstances of the case, for any sum above the\n\n amount found as actual damages, not exceeding three times such amount. If the court shall find\n\n that the amount of the recovery based on profits is either inadequate or excessive the court may\n\n in its discretion enter judgment for such sum as the court shall find to be just, according to the\n\n circumstances of the case. Such sum in either of the above circumstances shall constitute\n\n compensation and not a penalty. The court in exceptional cases may award reasonable attorney\n\n fees to the prevailing party.\n\n        78.       (b) Treble damages for use of counterfeit mark. In assessing damages under\n\n subsection (a) for any violation of section 1114(1)(a) of this title or section 220506 of Title 36,\n\n in a case involving use of a counterfeit mark or designation (as defined in section 1116(d) of this\n\n title), the court shall, unless the court finds extenuating circumstances, enter judgment for three\n\n times such profits or damages, whichever amount is greater, together with a reasonable attorney's\n\n fee, if the violation consists of--(1) intentionally using a mark or designation, knowing such mark\n\n or designation is a counterfeit mark (as defined in section 1116(d) of this title), in connection\n\n with the sale, offering for sale, or distribution of goods or services; or (2) providing goods or\n\n services necessary to the commission of a violation specified in paragraph (1), with the intent\n\n that the recipient of the goods or services would put the goods or services to use in committing\n\n the violation.\n\n        79.       In such a case, the court may award prejudgment interest on such amount at an\n\n annual interest rate established under section 6621(a)(2) of Title 26, beginning on the date of the\n\n service of the claimant's pleadings setting forth the claim for such entry of judgment and ending\n\n on the date such entry is made, or for such shorter time as the court considers appropriate.\n\n\n\n 173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\n PAGE 16\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E          Document 14        Filed 03/13/26         Page 17 of 21     PageID 147\n\n\n\n         80.

In the case of a violation\n\n referred to in this section, it shall be a rebuttable presumption that the violation is willful for\n\n purposes of determining relief if the violator, or a person acting in concert with the violator,\n\n knowingly provided or knowingly caused to be provided materially false contact information to\n\n a domain name registrar, domain name registry, or other domain name registration authority in\n\n registering, maintaining, or renewing a domain name used in connection with the violation.\n\n Nothing in this subsection limits what may be considered a willful violation under this section.\n\n 15 U.S.C.A. \u00a7 1117.\n\n\n\n 173428459.1 171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT AND BRIEF IN SUPPORT \u2013\n PAGE 17\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E        Document 14        Filed 03/13/26      Page 18 of 21      PageID 148\n\n\n\n                                    PRAYER FOR RELIEF\n\n        WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully prays for the following relief against Defendant:\n\n       1.

Plaintiff filed this action asserting claims for trademark infringement under the\n\nLanham Act and Texas law, unfair competition, dilution, and breach of contract based on\n\nDefendant's post-termination use of Plaintiff's licensed intellectual property and failure to\n\nperform obligations under a written License Agreement.

Defendant received notice of this Courts Default notice. Defendant\n\ncontinues to use Plaintiff's marks and other licensed property without authorization.\n\n       2.      Plaintiff respectfully requests entry of default judgment granting injunctive and\n\nmonetary relief consistent with the Complaint and the accompanying Motion for Default\n\nJudgment and Brief in Support, the Appendix, Exhibits and evidence in support thereof.\n\n                    LEGAL STANDARD FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT\n\n       3.      Rule 55(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides for the entry of default\n\njudgment when a party against whom a judgment for affirmative relief is sought has failed to\n\nplead or otherwise defend. Upon entry of default, the well-pleaded factual allegations of the\n\ncomplaint, except those relating to the amount of damages, are taken as true.\n\n       4.      Upon default, the well-pleaded allegations of the complaint except those relating\n\nto damages are deemed admitted. Nishimatsu Constr. Co. v. Hous. Nat'l Bank, 515 F.2d 1200,\n\n1206 (5th Cir. 1975).\n\n       5.      The decision to enter a default judgment lies within the district court's discretion,\n\nguided by whether (1) the default was willful; (2) the plaintiff would suffer prejudice absent\n\njudgment; and (3) the defendant has no meritorious defense. Lindsey v. Prive Corp., 161 F.3d\n\n886, 893 (5th Cir. 1998).\n\n       6.      Plaintiff moves this court for entry of a default judgment against Defendant under\n\nRule 55(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff requests that the judgment be\n\nentered as further set forth in the attached proposed default judgment.\n\n       7.      Defendant has not appeared in this action and is not entitled to notice of this\n\napplication for entry of a default judgment.\n\n\n\n\n171935229.1 PLAINTIFF\u2019S MOTION FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT \u2013 PAGE 2\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 13        Filed 03/13/26     Page 3 of 4      PageID 123\n\n\n\n       8.      Defendant's failure to respond warrants entry of default judgment for Plaintiff.\n\n       9.      Plaintiff's claims are supported by the well-pleaded allegations in the Complaint,\n\nwhich are deemed admitted upon default.\n\n       10.     Plaintiff is prejudiced by Defendant's refusal to participate in the litigation, as\n\nPlaintiff is unable to obtain relief absent a judgment.\n\n       11.     There is no indication that Defendant possesses any meritorious defenses.\n\n       12.     Accordingly, a default judgment is warranted. See United States v.

Defendant Spaghetti Warehouse Restaurant of CNY, LLC, entered into a License Agreement\n     with Plaintiff for the operation of Spaghetti Warehouse restaurants under Plaintiff's trademarks\n     and service marks (the \"Marks\").\n  2. Anthony Schlur and Patrick Dussol (the \"Individual Defendants\") are the owners and operators\n     of the Defendant entity.\nFindings Regarding Fraud\n\n  3. The Individual Defendants committed fraud by making material misrepresentations and\n     omissions to Plaintiff, including:\n     a. Failing to provide accurate and complete financial statements for calendar years 2023,\n         2024, and 2025 as required by the License Agreement\n     b. Misrepresenting Defendant's ability and intention to pay license fees and renewal fees\n         when due\n     c. Concealing the Defendant's true financial condition and revenue figures to avoid paying\n         the required percentage-based license fees\n\n\n\nFINAL DEFAULT JUDGMENT \u2013 PAGE 1\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 13-1         Filed 03/13/26      Page 2 of 6      PageID 126\n\n\n     d. Making false assurances of compliance with the License Agreement while simultaneously\n         breaching its material terms\n  4. Plaintiff justifiably relied on the Individual Defendants' representations regarding financial\n     performance and compliance with the License Agreement\n  5. The Individual Defendants made these misrepresentations and omissions knowingly, or with\n     reckless disregard for the truth, and with the intent to deceive Plaintiff and induce Plaintiff to\n     forbear exercising its contractual remedies\n  6. As a direct and proximate result of the Individual Defendants' fraudulent conduct, Plaintiff\n     suffered damages including unpaid license fees, unpaid renewal fees, loss of goodwill,\n     trademark infringement damages, and costs of enforcement\n  7. The Individual Defendants continued to use the Marks after termination of the License\n     Agreement on June 23, 2025, with full knowledge that such use was unauthorized, further\n     demonstrating their fraudulent intent\nFindings Regarding Veil-Piercing and Joint and Several Liability\n\n  1. Anthony Schlur and Patrick Dussol exercised complete dominion and control over Defendant\n     entity\n  2. The Individual Defendants used the corporate form of Defendant to perpetrate actual fraud\n     upon Plaintiff by:\n     a. Operating Defendant as their alter ego without observing corporate formalities\n     b. Commingling corporate and personal interests\n     c. Using the corporate entity as a sham to avoid personal liability for their fraudulent conduct\n     d. Undercapitalizing the Defendant while extracting revenues that should have been paid to\n         Plaintiff as license fees\n  3. The corporate form was used by the Individual Defendants to perpetrate fraud and defeat\n     public convenience, specifically to avoid paying contractually obligated fees to Plaintiff while\n     continuing to benefit from use of Plaintiff's valuable intellectual property\n  4. Allowing the Individual Defendants to shield themselves behind the corporate veil would\n     promote injustice and defeat the equities of this case\n  5. The factors supporting piercing the corporate veil are present, and traditional corporate law\n     principles require holding Anthony Schlur and Patrick Dussol personally liable for the debts\n     and obligations of Defendant entity\n\n\nFINAL DEFAULT JUDGMENT \u2013 PAGE 2\n\fCase 3:25-cv-02727-E         Document 13-1         Filed 03/13/26        Page 3 of 6     PageID 127\n\n\n  6.
