Thanks for the confirmation, Mike.

I am out of the office today, but we will work on getting these documents produced as soon as possible
next week. Regarding the source code, I believe we will be using the escrow provisions of Section 12

of the Protective Order; my understanding of those provisions is that GE may select a metropolitan area for the escrow, and then Agere may select the escrow company. If your understanding is the same, please let us know when GE has decided on the metropolitan area for the escrow.

Dear Mr. King: Pursuant to Paragraph 12 of the Protective Order, we write to request that Agere's source code be provided, via third-party escrow services, in or reasonably close to Bridgewater, NJ. One alternative suggestion would be to host the source code at the offices of our experts, who could secure a dedicated, padlocked room solely for the produced code. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely,

David - we can agree to that if Agere will agree to Dr. Bims and Dr. Lee (resume attached). To expedite things, Dr. Lee will be assisting with software review. We would also like to place the software in escrow in/around Menlo Park - we should be able to send locations in the AM. When could the software be delivered?

Agere Systems Inc., C.A. No. 07-170 Amanda and Mike, We have forwarded Dr. Bims's CV to our client for review and are hoping for an expedient response. Yesterday in our meet and confer you stated that by proffering a new expert, it may alleviate the need to further discuss Messrs. Lopes and Buterbaugh. We understand your statement to mean that if we approve Dr. Bims, you will withdraw Messrs. Lopes and Buterbaugh as consultants under the Protective Order. As you know, under the Protective Order, we have until April 10 to move the Court regarding Messrs. Lopes and Buterbaugh. Agere intends to make such a motion unless GE unequivocally withdraws Lopes and Buterbaugh. Please confirm that if we are able to approve Dr. Bims, you will withdraw Messrs. Lopes and Buterbaugh as consultants under the protective order. Regards,
