STIPULATION AND ORDER RE BRIEFING SCHEDULE; DECLARATION IN SUPPORT 

DECLARATION OF DANIEL K. SLAUGHTER

I, Daniel K. Slaughter, declare as follows: 

1. I am Of Counsel at Stein & Lubin LLP, counsel for defendant McAfee, Inc. 

("McAfee") in this action. I have personal knowledge that the facts set forth in this declaration 

are true and correct and, if called as a witness, could and would testify thereto. 

2. As set forth in the attached stipulation, the parties have agreed to a briefing and 

hearing schedule for McAfee’s motion to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 

12(b)(6). The hearing date is the first available date on the Court’s calendar, October 25, 2010. 

The briefing schedule includes a one week extension of time for McAfee to respond to the first 

amended complaint (“FAC”) by filing the motion, and shortens the time for opposition and reply 

so that the Court will have additional time to review the motion papers and/or advance the 

hearing date if that is possible. 

3. The reasons for the briefing schedule are as follows: The Court’s first available 

hearing date for the motion is October 25, 2010. The current deadline for filing the motion is 

June 3, 2010. Given that there are almost 150 days between those dates, the parties desire to 

divide up that time so as to enable them to prepare papers addressing all the issues on the motion. 

The parties also want to give the Court additional time to review the papers and/or to advance the 

hearing date if possible after briefing is completed. 

4. There have been no previous time modification in this action, except that the 

parties stipulated previously to allow McAfee an additional 30 days to respond to the original 

complaint. Fifteen days into that extension, plaintiffs filed their FAC and the current response 

date is the statutory 21-day time from the filing and service of the FAC. 

5. The requested modifications to the timing of the briefing on the motion to dismiss 

will have no impact on the schedule for the case, given that the hearing date chosen is, in any 

event, the first available hearing date on the Court’s calendar.
