`
`I, Leslie V. Payne, hereby declare:
`
`1.
`
`I am an active member of the State Bar of Texas, an attorney with the firm of
`
`Heim, Payne & Chorush L.L.P, and admitted pro hac vice before this Court. I am one of the
`
`attorneys representing Vasudevan Software, Inc. (“VSi”) in this matter. I am over the age of 18,
`
`competent to testify to the facts stated herein, and have personal knowledge of the facts and
`
`statements in this declaration.
`
`2.
`
`On September 10, 2012, I participated in a phone conference with my co-counsel
`
`(Brooke Taylor, Jordan Connors, and Eric Enger), representatives of VSi (Mark and Helen
`
`Vasudevan), opposing counsel (Sean Pak), and a representative of MicroStrategy (Executive
`
`Vice President and General Counsel, Jonathan Klein). During the call, Mr. Klein made
`
`statements to the following effect if VSi did not immediately dismiss the case:
`
`a. MicroStrategy will make the litigation as painful as possible for VSi;
`
`b. MicroStrategy will file reexamination petitions with the USPTO to
`reexamine all of VSi’s patents-in-suit; and
`
`
`c. MicroStrategy was contemplating ways in which to take action against
`Susman Godfrey.
`
`3.
`
`Regarding 2(c) above, I specifically asked Mr. Klein what he meant. He refused
`
`
`
`to answer my question and suggested that we would have to wait and see.
`
`4.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the
`
`foregoing is true and correct.
`
`Signed this 20th day of November, at Houston, TX.
