STIPULATION AND ORDER RE: EXTENSION 

OF TIME TO FILE AMENDED COMPLAINT

C-02-2270-JW(PVT)

The parties hereto, plaintiffs and defendants VeriSign, Inc., Stratton D. Sclavos, Dana L. 

Evan, Robert J. Korzeniewski, and Quentin P. Gallivan, by and through their respective counsel 

of record, hereby stipulate, and request that the Court enter an order thereon, that plaintiffs shall 

have an extension of time until December 15, 2005, to file an amended complaint in this matter.

The parties further stipulate that the briefing schedule on any motion to dismiss or other motion in 

response to the amended complaint shall be as set forth herein.

WHEREAS, the Court issued its Corrected Order Granting In Part And Denying In Part 

Defendants’ Motion For Judgment On The Pleadings; Denying Without Prejudice Defendants’ 

Motion To Strike And Motion To Shorten The Class Period (“Corrected Order”) on November 2, 

2005;

WHEREAS, the Corrected Order requires that plaintiffs file an amended complaint on or 

before November 18, 2005; 

WHEREAS, the parties agree that an extension of time to file plaintiffs’ amended 

complaint, and a stipulated briefing schedule are appropriate;

WHEREAS, defendants have notified plaintiffs that they intend to file a motion to dismiss 

in response to any amended complaint and the parties seek to establish a briefing schedule for the 

motion;

WHEREAS, the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(b)(3)(B)

provides that: “[i]n any private action . . . all discovery and other proceedings shall be 

stayed during the pendency of any motion to dismiss,” and defendants’ motion to dismiss 

falls within this statutory language.

WHEREAS, plaintiffs believe that under the circumstances of this case there are 

good grounds to lift the stay after the amended complaint is filed. They expressly reserve 

the right to move the Court to lift the stay in accordance with 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(b)(3)(B);

WHEREAS, defendants believe that the discovery stay during the pendency of 

their motion to dismiss under 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(b)(3)(B) is automatic and appropriate, 

and that there are no circumstances that would support lifting the automatic stay. They 

expressly reserve the right to oppose any lifting of the stay.
