DECLARATION OF KEITH E. EGGLETON

I, Keith E. Eggleton, declare:

1. I am a member of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, P.C., counsel for defendants

Polycom, Inc., Michael R. Kourey, and Eric F. Brown. I make this declaration in support of the

parties’ Stipulation and [Proposed] Order Continuing Case Management Conference. The parties

seek to continue the Initial Case Management Conference until after the Court has ruled on

Defendants’ pending Motions to Dismiss. The parties agree that a continuance is reasonable and

appropriate.

2. This is the parties’ sixth request for extension of time with respect to the Initial

Case Management Conference since this action was filed in July 2013. The parties’ previous

stipulated requests to continue the Initial Case Management Conference were filed on September

23, 2013 (ECF No. 17), December 9, 2013 (ECF No. 36), April 4, 2014 (ECF No. 49), November

21, 2014 (ECF No. 64), and January 2, 2015 (ECF No. 66). The Court granted these five previous

requests (see ECF Nos. 18, 39, 50, 65, 67, 68).

3. The requested continuance will not impact any other deadlines or dates set by the

Court.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on

February 6, 2015 in Palo Alto, California.
