Plaintiff Sarath Boyapati’s Motion For Expedited Discovery And Motion For Order 

Shortening Time were filed with this Court on February 14, 2007 and the motions were 

referred to the Honorable Maria-Elena James by The Honorable Samuel Conti on February 

15, 2007. The Honorable Maria-Elena James convened a telephonic hearing on the Motion 

For Expedited Discovery on March 8, 2007 at 2:30 p.m. Plaintiff Sarath Boyapati was 

represented by Kevin H. Lewis and Defendants were represented by Nan E. Joesten. This 

Court, having considered the arguments of counsel and the papers submitted by the 

respective parties relating to Plaintiff’s Motion For Expedited Discovery (“Motion”), 

HEREBY ORDERS that the Motion is GRANTED IN PART as follows: 

The Court orders expedited discovery in the form of depositions by written questions 

which, pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 31(a)(3) and 30(b)(6), may be directed 

to each of the three corporate Defendants concerning the subject matters identified in 

Plaintiff’s Motion. The Court therefore orders that Plaintiff may propound 15 written 

questions to each defendant corporation (for a total of 45 questions in total) relevant to the 

subject matter of the indemnification claims described in David Menken’s January 3, 2007 

letter and/or any other basis for Defendants’ refusal to pay the amounts owed under the 

Share Purchase Agreement. Plaintiff’s counsel shall hand-deliver these questions to 

Defendants’ counsel, Nan E. Joesten, by no later than 5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 9, 2007. 

Each of the three Defendant corporations shall provide their answers to these questions in 

writing verified under oath by the appropriate person or persons most knowledgeable by no 

later than Friday, March 23, 2007. Defendant’s counsel shall hand-deliver the answers to 

these questions to Kevin H. Lewis by no later than 5:00 p.m. on March 23, 2007. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: March ___, 2007.
