Oakland, California 94607-4036 

I, Gregory S. Nerland, declare: 

1. I am an attorney licensed to practice law by the State of California, and admitted to 

practice before this Court, and am of counsel to the law firm of Akawie & LaPietra. The 

following facts are true of my own personal knowledge, and if called upon to do so, I would and 

could competently testify thereto except as to those matters that are alleged upon information and 

belief and as to those matters, I believe them to be true. I make this declaration in support of 

Susan L. Uecker, Receiver’s and Monitor’s Motion for Order Authorizing Employment of 

Professionals. 

2. I have been practicing law in California in the San Francisco East Bay since 1989. 

A substantial portion of my practice relates to commercial leasing. I have performed a conflict 

check and Akawie & LaPietra and I are not attorneys for or associated with or employed for any 

party to this action, except that I represented the Receiver in a representative capacity in other 

matters that are unrelated to this action, and I represented the Receiver in the State Court Action as 

the Receiver for the CallSocket Entities for purposes of bringing unlawful detainer actions. 

3. My hourly rate is $330. Akawie & LaPietra charges its costs as actual costs. I will 

seek compensation in compliance with the terms of the Appointment Order and agree to bill my 

fees and costs in this case in accordance with the Billing Instructions for Receivers in Civil 

Actions Commenced by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and upon application and 

approval by the Court. 

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct and that this 

declaration was executed on the 3rd day of April, at Walnut Creek, California. 

/s/ Gregory Nerland
