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

Betsy S. Atkins, John A. Kelley, D. Scott Mercer, William A. Owens, Kevin T. Parker, and

nominal defendant Polycom, Inc. 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 derivative action was consolidated in October 2013.

The parties’ previous stipulated requests to continue the Initial Case Management Conference

were filed on December 9, 2013 (ECF No. 35), March 27, 2014 (ECF No. 45), July 10, 2014

(ECF No. 56), October 30, 2014 (ECF No. 63), and November 24, 2014 (ECF No. 65). The

Court granted these five previous requests (see ECF Nos. 36, 46, 57, 64, 66).

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

January 2, 2015 in Palo Alto, California.
