Re:Decision Not to Stand for Reelection at the 2008 Annual Meeting
Dear Bill and Jim:
Due to the demands on my time as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Juniper Networks, I must regretfully inform you that I have decided not to stand for reelection at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of VeriSign that is scheduled for May 29, 2008.
It has been my great pleasure to serve on the VeriSign Board for the last seven years and I am confident that you and the Board will continue to successfully shape and guide the direction of the company. I want to emphasize that my decision is not the result of any disagreement with the company or the Board on any matter relating to the company’s operations, policies or practices.
I wish you, the Board, the employees and the shareholders of the company every success in the future.
Sincerely yours, |
/s/ Scott G. Kriens |
