president of SCV and chief executive officer of NAR. "Our capital
investment and guidance will serve as a catalyst for this company to
become the standard and meet the market demand for legally binding
electronic signatures that help REALTORS close more deals at a faster

The funds are invested to accelerate and extend DocuSign's leadership
position as a core technology solution for residential and commercial
real estate professionals. DocuSign joins an exclusive group of SCV
portfolio companies including ePropertyData as well as representative
investments made by NAR in Move Inc., zipLogix and SentriLock, that all

the National Association of REALTORS and their members as their
best-in-class ESIGN provider."

More than 18,000 real estate professionals have used DocuSign to
accelerate their business, with thousands more subscribing each month.
Rather than driving across town to get a signature or forcing their
clients to find a fax machine, real estate professionals use DocuSign to
execute agreements with buyers and sellers electronically, eliminating
the old process of printing, faxing, and waiting for the return fax.
DocuSign real estate professional subscribers achieve higher sales,
increase client satisfaction and maintain a competitive edge. Safe and
secure, the DocuSign e-signature process is also easy to use and legally
compliant.
