DECLARATION OF CAMERON TOTTEN
1 DECLARATION OF CAMERON TOTTEN
2 I, Cameron Totten, declare as follows:
3 1. I am attorney duly licensed to practice law in the State of California and an
4 associate attorney at Chora Young & Manasserian LLP, counsel of record for Plaintiff Butler
5 America, LLC (“Plaintiff”). I make this Declaration in support of Plaintiff Butler America, LLC’s
6 Opposition to Defendants’ Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint
7 (“Opposition”). Except where stated on information and belief, the statements herein are based
8 upon my personal knowledge and my review of the books and records within my law office. If
9 called as a witness, I could and would competently testify hereto.
10 2. On November 15, 2021, Plaintiff filed its Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”).
11 3. Four days later, on November 19, 2021, Defendants UCOMMG, LLC, Unified
12 Communications Group, Inc., Kenneth Newbatt, Bianca Newbatt, Mitchell Lipkin, Michael
13 Bellas, WesTele Utility Solutions, LLC, and Cynthia Baker (“Defendants”) filed this Motion to
14 Strike Plaintiff’s SAC (“Motion”).
15 4. On November 24, 2021, Defendants filed their Reply to Plaintiff’s Opposition to
16 Defendants’ Demurrer to the First Amended Complaint (“FAC”), which raises the exact same
17 issues addressed in this Motion. Defendants refused to withdraw their Demurrer to the FAC,
18 despite Plaintiff’s filing of the SAC.
19 5. On December 3, 2021, this Court issued a tentative ruling, which the Court adopted
20 as its final ruling, in connection with Defendants’ Demurrer and Motion to Quash Service of
21 Summons. I attach hereto a true and correct copy of the ruling as Exhibit A.
22 6. On February 2, 2022, I emailed Kathryn M. Evans, Esq., counsel for Defendants, in
23 an attempt to meet and confer with regard to the withdrawal of Defendants’ Motion.
24 7. On the same day, Ms. Evans indicated that Defendants were willing to withdraw
25 this Motion if Plaintiff essentially conceded that it had engaged in a “pattern and practice” of bad
26 faith conduct and agree not to seek any further leave to add a trade secret cause of action in this
27 matter. In response to Ms. Evans’ email, I reiterated that Plaintiff has not engaged in any bad faith
28 conduct but that Plaintiff has no intention of amending the complaint to bring back the trade secret

cause of action. I also requested for Defendan to withdraw this Motion in my response.
February 4, 2022, I emailed Ms. Evans to follow up with Plaintiff s request to
draw the Motion. Ms. Evans informed me that Defendants would not withdraw the Motion
unless Plaintiff agreed to treat Defendants Motion for 128.7 Sanctions in connection with the
AC as the same motion with regard to the SAC, which was not acceptable to Plaintiff. I attach
hereto true and correct copies of all of the above referenced emails on bruary 2 and February 4,
as Exhibit
I declare under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the State of California, that the
foregoing is true and correc
Executed on February 4, at Pasadena, California.

Geck individual; JIMMIE GARRE BAKER, JR., an individual; WESTELE UTILITY SOLUTIONS, LLC, a California limited liability company; and DOES inclusive Defendants DECLARATION OF CAMERON TOTTEN 1 DECLARATION OF CAMERON TOTTEN 2 I, Cameron Totten, declare as follows: 3 1. I am attorney duly licensed to practice law in the State of California and an 4 associate attorney at Chora Young & Manasserian LLP, counsel of record for Plaintiff Butler 5 America, LLC (“Plaintiff”). I make this Declaration in support of Plaintiff Butler America, LLC’s 6 Opposition to Defendants’ Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint 7 (“Opposition”). Except where stated on information and belief, the statements herein are based 8 upon my personal knowledge and my review of the books and records within my law office. If 9 called as a witness, I could and would competently testify hereto. 10 2. On November 15, 2021, Plaintiff filed its Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”). 11 3. Four days later, on November 19, 2021, Defendants UCOMMG, LLC, Unified 12 Communications Group, Inc., Kenneth Newbatt, Bianca Newbatt, Mitchell Lipkin, Michael 13 Bellas, WesTele Utility Solutions, LLC, and Cynthia Baker (“Defendants”) filed this Motion to 14 Strike Plaintiff’s SAC (“Motion”). 15 4. On November 24, 2021, Defendants filed their Reply to Plaintiff’s Opposition to 16 Defendants’ Demurrer to the First Amended Complaint (“FAC”), which raises the exact same 17 issues addressed in this Motion. Defendants refused to withdraw their Demurrer to the FAC, 18 despite Plaintiff’s filing of the SAC. 19 5. On December 3, 2021, this Court issued a tentative ruling, which the Court adopted 20 as its final ruling, in connection with Defendants’ Demurrer and Motion to Quash Service of 21 Summons. I attach hereto a true and correct copy of the ruling as Exhibit A. 22 6. On February 2, 2022, I emailed Kathryn M. Evans, Esq., counsel for Defendants, in 23 an attempt to meet and confer with regard to the withdrawal of Defendants’ Motion. 24 7. On the same day, Ms. Evans indicated that Defendants were willing to withdraw 25 this Motion if Plaintiff essentially conceded that it had engaged in a “pattern and practice” of bad 26 faith conduct and agree not to seek any further leave to add a trade secret cause of action in this 27 matter. In response to Ms. Evans’ email, I reiterated that Plaintiff has not engaged in any bad faith 28 conduct but that Plaintiff has no intention of amending the complaint to bring back the trade secret 2 DECLARATION OF CAMERON TOTTEN cause of action. I also requested for Defendan to withdraw this Motion in my response. February 4, 2022, I emailed Ms. Evans to follow up with Plaintiff s request to draw the Motion. Ms. Evans informed me that Defendants would not withdraw the Motion unless Plaintiff agreed to treat Defendants Motion for 128.7 Sanctions in connection with the AC as the same motion with regard to the SAC, which was not acceptable to Plaintiff. I attach hereto true and correct copies of all of the above referenced emails on bruary 2 and February 4, as Exhibit I declare under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the State of California, that the foregoing is true and correc Executed on February 4, at Pasadena, California.
