WHEREAS plaintiff, Brixham Solutions Ltd. (“Brixham”) no longer wishes to pursue its 

claims against defendant Juniper Networks, Inc. under U.S. Patent No. 7,609,621 (“the ‘621 

patent”); 

 THEREFORE, the parties stipulate to the dismissal of all claims, counterclaims, and 

affirmative defenses under the ‘621 patent pending in this matter. Such dismissal is without 

prejudice to the right of plaintiff, Brixham to re-file its claim of infringement of the '621 patent 

in the event that Juniper in the future, but before the expiration of the ‘621 patent, adds 

functionality to Juniper’s router products, such that the active SONET/SDH PIC in such products 

process traffic flowing to the standby SONET/SDH PIC in such products, or the equivalent 

thereof, and without prejudice to the right of Juniper to re-file its counterclaims and affirmative 

defenses to such infringement claim. Both parties are to bear their respective fees and costs 

associated with Brixham’s claim of infringement of the ‘621 patent. 

Respectfully submitted, 

Dated: January 2, 2014 /s/ George C. Summerfield
