I am the Plaintiff and co-counsel for Plaintiff Eric Grant in the above-entitled case. 3 I make this declaration in support of Plaintiff and Counter-Defendant Eric Grant's Reply to KSBE 4 Defendants' Opposition to Doe Defendants' Motion for Preliminary Injunction. I make the state5 ments of fact in this declaration of my own personal knowledge. If called as a witness in this pro6 ceeding, I could and would competently testify to the facts set forth herein. 7 2. Since 1990, I have been a member in good standing of the State Bar of California. 8 Since 2001, I have been a member in good standing of the Bar of this Court. 9 3. I have resided and practiced law in Sacramento County continuously since 1997. I 10 have been a solo practitioner since August of 2004. ERIC GRANT, ATTORNEY AT LAW 11 4. In the following paragraphs, I refer to Defendants Kamehameha Schools/Bernice 8001 Folsom Boulevard, Suite 100 Sacramento, California 95826 Telephone: (916) 388-0833 12 Pauahi Bishop Estate, J. Douglas Ing, Nainoa Thompson, Diane J. Plotts, Robert K.U. Kihune, and 13 Corbett A.K. Kalama collectively as "KSBE." I refer to Defendants John Doe and Jane Doe, two 14 individuals whose true identities are known to me, as "the Does." 15 5. I represented the Does in a federal civil rights lawsuit against KSBE, which lawsuit 16 attacked KSBE's "Hawaiians only" admissions policy at its K-12 schools as discrimination on the 17 basis of race in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1981. That lawsuit was filed in June of 2003 in the United 18 States District Court for the District of Hawaii; it was styled Doe v. Kamehameha Schools/Bernice 19 Pauahi Bishop Estate, et al., No. 1:03-cv-00316-ACK-LEK ("the Underlying Litigation"). 20 6. While the Underlying Litigation was pending in the district court, KSBE was rep- 21 resented by California counsel working from California, namely, Kathleen M. Sullivan, then dean 22 of Stanford Law School; she alone argued for KSBE at the one and only hearing before the district 23 court on November 17, 2003. 24 7. The district court ruled in favor of KSBE and dismissed the Does' action with pre- 25 judice. On the Does' behalf, I filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the 26 Ninth Circuit in San Francisco. Accordingly, the Underlying Litigation was pending in that court 27 from December 30, 2003 through December 5, 2006 (as No. 04-15044). 28 /// 1 Declaration of Eric Grant in Support of Plaintiff's Reply to KSBE Defendants' Opposition to Preliminary Injunction 1 8. In that appeal, KSBE was again represented by California counsel working from 2 California, namely, Ms. Sullivan; she alone argued for KSBE at the panel oral argument on Nov3 ember 4, 2004 and the en banc oral argument on June 20, 2006 in San Francisco. 4 9. The Ninth Circuit likewise ruled in favor of KSBE and affirmed the district court's 5 dismissal of the Does' action. On the Does' behalf, I filed a petition for certiorari in the Supreme 6 Court of the United States (docketed as No. 06-1202). 7 10. In that phase of the litigation, KSBE was again represented by California counsel 8 working from California, namely, Ms. Sullivan and the law firm Quinn Emanuel Urquhart Oliver 9 & Hedges, LLP in Redwood Shores, California. Ms. Sullivan was designated "Counsel of Record" 10 (i.e., lead counsel) for KSBE on the brief in opposition to the Does' petition. ERIC GRANT, ATTORNEY AT LAW 11 11. While the Does' petition was under consideration by the Supreme Court, Ms. Sul- 8001 Folsom Boulevard, Suite 100 Sacramento, California 95826 Telephone: (916) 388-0833 12 livan on May 3, 2007 contacted me at my office in Sacramento County and proposed to continue 13 settlement negotiations on behalf of our respective clients. On May 8, 2007, I met Ms. Sullivan at 14 a restaurant in Pleasanton, California, where we conducted negotiations over a long lunch. 15 12. Over the course of the following three days, Ms. Sullivan and I continued to nego- 16 tiate by telephone and electronic mail from our respective offices in California. I recollect that we 17 spoke approximately a dozen times and exchanged at least thirty e-mail messages in that period. 18 13. On May 11, 2007, our negotiations consummated in a written settlement agreement. 19 On a separate page of the agreement entitled "Approval as to Form," Ms. Sullivan and I executed 20 a provision that stated: "On behalf of our respective clients, we approve the foregoing Settlement 21 Agreement and General Release as to form." At KSBE's specific demand, I executed a separate 22 declaration confirming that the signatures of "John Doe" and "Jane Doe" were genuine. These ex23 ecutions were accomplished from our respective offices in California. 24 14. The essence of the settlement was an exchange by which the Does received mone- 25 tary compensation from KSBE for dismissing their pending petition for certiorari. To effect that 26 dismissal, I initiated (and Ms. Sullivan joined) a telephone call to the Clerk of the Supreme Court. 27 Based on the Clerk's instructions, Ms. Sullivan and I executed an "Agreed Stipulation to Dismiss" 28 the petition, which I submitted to the Clerk by facsimile from my office in Sacramento County. In 2 Declaration of Eric Grant in Support of Plaintiff's Reply to KSBE Defendants' Opposition to Preliminary Injunction 1 accord with that stipulation, the Clerk entered an order dismissing the Does' petition pursuant to 2 the Supreme Court's Rule 46.1. 3 15. Thereafter, KSBE discharged its financial obligation under the settlement by mak- 4 ing payments to my client trust account at my bank in Sacramento. The logistics of such payments 5 were co-ordinated by Ms. Sullivan and me. 6 16. On February 7, 2008, I was in Honolulu to participate in an academic symposium at 7 the University of Hawaii Law School concerning the Underlying Litigation. At that symposium, 8 I was approached by two newspaper reporters (one from the Honolulu Advertiser, the other from 9 the Honolulu Star-Bulletin), both of whom stated that Goemans had disclosed what he represented 10 to be the amount and other terms of the settlement between the Does and KSBE. When asked by ERIC GRANT, ATTORNEY AT LAW 11 those reporters to comment on the disclosures, I categorically refused. 12 17. I spoke numerous times with Kathleen Sullivan at the academic symposium. Those 8001 Folsom Boulevard, Suite 100 Sacramento, California 95826 Telephone: (916) 388-0833 13 conversations, which concerned the Goemans disclosures among other subjects, led me to believe 14 that Ms. Sullivan and her law firm continued to represent KSBE, as she had done since 2003. 15 18. Based on my personal conversations with Tom Gede, a lawyer resident in the San 16 Francisco office of the firm of Bingham McCutchen LLP (one of KSBE's counsel in the present 17 action), I understand that the firm represented KSBE (or related entities) in land-use and environ18 mental matters even before the commencement of this action. 19 19. On March 31, 2008, I visited a webpage on KSBE's website, http://www.ksbe.edu/ 20 about/facts.php. On that page, KSBE states that it "is the largest private landowner in the state of 21 Hawaii." A true and correct copy of a printout of the page, with the quoted statement highlighted, 22 is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 23 20. On March 31, 2008, I downloaded from KSBE's website, http://www.ksbe.edu/pdf/ 24 ar07/annualreport07.pdf, a document entitled Kamehameha Schools Annual Report: July 1, 200625 June 30, 2007. On internally numbered Page 5 of that document, KSBE states that "the fair value 26 of [its] total endowment grew by $1.39 billion during fiscal year 2007, increasing the overall en27 dowment fair value to $9.06 billion as of year end." A true and correct copy of the document, re28 sized to fit on 8.5' x 11' paper with the quoted passage highlighted, is attached hereto as Exhibit 2. 3 Declaration of Eric Grant in Support of Plaintiff's Reply to KSBE Defendants' Opposition to Preliminary Injunction 1 21. On March 31, 2008, I visited a webpage on KSBE's website, http://www.ksbe.edu/ 2 article.php?story=20070514062928373. That page is a press release issued by KSBE's Trustees 3 on May 14, 2007, announcing and justifying KSBE's settlement with the Does. The press release 4 states that "This means that the Circuit Court ruling stands" and that "The ruling from the 9th Cir5 cuit Court is a pono one for Kamehameha Schools and for kanaka maoli." A true and correct copy 6 of a printout of the release, with the quoted statements highlighted, is attached hereto as Exhibit 3. 7 22. On April 14, 2008, I visited the website of Allen Matkins Leck Gamble Mallory & 8 Natsis LLP, a law firm with offices only in California. In particular, I visited the page describing 9 the practice of partner Anton N. Natsis (a member of the California Bar), http://www.allenmatkins. 10 com/search/printableversion.asp?id=441. That page states that "Mr. Natsis is continually sought ERIC GRANT, ATTORNEY AT LAW 11 out by some of the largest national land owners, such as . . . Kamehameha Schools (The Bishop 12 Estate)." A true and correct copy of a printout of the page, with the quoted statement highlighted, 13 is attached hereto as Exhibit 4. 14 23. On April 14, 2008, I also visited the webpage describing the practice of Allen Mat- 8001 Folsom Boulevard, Suite 100 Sacramento, California 95826 Telephone: (916) 388-0833 15 kins associate Michael McFadden (also a member of the California Bar), http://www.allenmatkins. 16 com/search/printableversion.asp?id=440. The page states that Mr. McFadden "regularly represents 17 some of the largest national land owners, including . . . Kamehameha Schools (The Bishop Estate)." 18 A true and correct copy of a printout of the page, with the quoted statement highlighted, is attached 19 hereto as Exhibit 5. 20 24. On April 14, 2008, I visited the webpage for Kathleen M. Sullivan on the website of 21 the State Bar of California, http://members.calbar.ca.gov/search/member_detail.aspx?x=242261. 22 That page indicates that Ms. Sullivan's business address is "Quinn Emanuel et al LLP, 555 Twin 23 Dolphin Dr #560, Redwood Shores, CA, 94065." A true and correct copy of a printout of the page 24 is attached hereto as Exhibit 6. 25 25. I have no direct personal knowledge of the residence of John Goemans. I do know, 26 however, that in Grant v. Goemans (Sacramento Superior Court No. 07AS04172), Mr. Goemans 27 verified his Response to Form Interrogatories, Set One, on December 8, 2007. In his Response to 28 Form Interrogatory No. 2.5 on Page 4 of that document, Goemans identified his residence address 4 Declaration of Eric Grant in Support of Plaintiff's Reply to KSBE Defendants' Opposition to Preliminary Injunction 1 as "120 S. Reeves, Beverly Hills, CA" during the period "2004-present." A true and correct copy 2 of relevant excerpts from that document is attached hereto as Exhibit 7. 3 26. On April 15, 2008, I followed a link from the homepage of KSBE's website, http:// 4 www.ksbe.edu, to the website of the Ke Ali`i Pauahi Foundation, http://www.pauahi.org. As de5 scribed on a page of that website, http://www.pauahi.org/about/board-of-directors.php, the board 6 of directors of the Foundation consists precisely of "the five sitting trustees of the Kamehameha 7 Schools," namely, the five individuals sued in this action in their capacities as trustees. A true and 8 correct copy of a printout of the webpage, with the quoted statement highlighted, is attached hereto 9 as Exhibit 8. 10 27. On April 15, 2008, I also downloaded from the Ke Ali`i Pauahi Foundation web- ERIC GRANT, ATTORNEY AT LAW 11 site, http://www.pauahi.org/pdf/Available%20Scholarships%20021606.pdf, a document that listed 12 the Foundation's "available scholarships for the 2006-2007 academic year." These included the 13 "Kamehameha Schools Alumni Association-Northern California Scholarship" for "students whose 14 permanent residence is in Northern California (State of California addresses north of and including 15 the city of San Luis Obispo) and are of Hawaiian ancestry." A true and correct copy of a printout 16 of the document, resized to fit on 8.5' x 11' paper with the quoted passages highlighted, is attached 17 hereto as Exhibit 9. 18 I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the 8001 Folsom Boulevard, Suite 100 Sacramento, California 95826 Telephone: (916) 388-0833 19 foregoing is true and correct.

Kamehameha School for Boys was the first to be established in 1887 on what are now the grounds of the Bishop Museum in Honolulu on the island of O`ahu. A year later the Preparatory Department, for boys 6 to 12 years of age, opened in adjacent facilities. The School for Girls opened in 1894 on its own campus nearby. In the early years, the curriculum focused on manual and industrial arts. Search Additional Resources About Kamehameha Schools Board of Advisors Officers of KS Governance About KS Admissions Policies The 600-acre Kapalama Campus is the largest and oldest of Kamehameha's three campuses. A 180-acre campus on Maui, a 300-acre campus on Hawai`i, some 32 preschools on five islands and numerous extension education programs round out the statewide education system. Between 1930 and 1955, all three schools moved to its present location Kaplama Heights - less than a mile ma uka of the old Bishop Museum campus. In 1965 the boy's and girl's campuses became co-ed and the curriculum was increasingly geared to college preparation. In 1996 two new campuses were established on the neighbor islands of Maui and Hawai'I, and they now serve students in grades K - 12. Kamehameha also operates 30 preschool sites statewide. The three campuses enroll over 5,000 students and an additional 23,000 are served annually through community-based and scholarship programs, and collaborations with educational and community organizations. In addition to three campuses, Kamehameha operates 30 preschool sites enrolling 1,500 3- and 4-year-old children statewide; and serves thousands more students through community outreach and scholarship programs, and collaborations with educational and community organizations. Kamehameha subsidizes a significant portion of the cost to educate every student. Although modest tuition and fees are charged, nearly 60 percent of 1 of 2 3/31/2008 11:35 PM Kamehameha Schools - Facts About KS http://www.ksbe.edu/about/facts.php preschool and K-12 families qualify for and receive need-based financial aid. Christian and Hawaiian cultural values and practices as well as service learning are integral to Kamehameha Schools programs, both on campus and in the community. It is the policy of Kamehameha Schools to give preference to applicants of Hawaiian ancestry to the extent permitted by law. Kamehameha Schools is the largest private landowner in the state of Hawai`i. Income generated from its residential, commercial and resort leases, as well as diverse investments, fund the schools' maintenance and operations. The Schools' endowment has experienced dramtic growth over the past few years, resulting in a total portfolio value of $7.66 billion as of June 30, 2006. Kamehameha's Endowment Group also manages several education collaborations which focus on utilizing Kamehameha Schools' sizable land holdings for educational purposes. The `ina Ulu program is designed to use Kamehameha lands as classrooms for project-based learning. Statewide, more than 15,000 participants were served in 2005-06. The Mlama `ina program incorporates land and resource stewardship management plans which help ensure availability of resources to meet future needs.

The terms of the settlement are confidential. By settling this case, we protect our right to offer admissions preference to Native Hawaiians. The plaintiff has withdrawn his petition for U.S. Supreme Court appeal of the 9th Circuit Court ruling upholding our preference policy as legally permissible. This means that the Circuit Court ruling stands ­ our legal right to offer preference to Native Hawaiian applicants is preserved. Our work to fulfill our mission and Pauahi's vision, on our campuses and in our communities can proceed without distraction. The ruling from the 9th Circuit Court is a pono one for Kamehameha Schools and for kanaka maoli. The majority opinion written by Judge Susan Graber acknowledges our unique history and the importance of our mission. In addition, the concurring opinion by Judge William Fletcher recognizes that Native Hawaiians have political status with the U.S. as a Native people. It is a great ruling to uphold, for Kamehameha Schools and the many federal and state programs that acknowledge and support the determination of our people to thrive. By settling this case we preserve our rights to serve our people in the manner we feel is best. This was a very difficult decision. From the beginning of this lawsuit, we have been prepared to defend our policy to the very end of the judicial process. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that this lawsuit is only one piece of a much broader risk to the rights of Native Hawaiians, as the Indigenous people of this state, to manage and control our own resources. We cannot ignore the treacherous landscape before us. We have all seen the systematic attempts to take Hawaiian Homelands, dismantle the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, to eliminate federal funding for programs that serve to improve the well-being of Native Hawaiians, and to scuttle attempts in the U.S. Congress to solidify our peoples' Indigenous status. We have all heard our efforts to protect our rights as Indigenous people described as "Balkanization," "separatist" and "racist." We have all read essays and opinions that seek to rewrite Hawaiian history and the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom and government. The John Doe v. Kamehameha Schools case was just one more attempt by a few to chip away at Native Hawaiian rights. Settling this case preserves our ability to fulfill our mission and our right to use our resources for their directed purpose, as a completely private Trust established by the bequest of one of our Ali`i during the time of Hawaiian Sovereignty. Settling this case also reserves the rights of other private trusts ­ Native and non-Native, as well as the rights of all Indigenous people to control and use resources designated for their benefit. This settlement, which preserves a favorable 9th Circuit Court ruling, has the same legal effect as a denial of the plaintiff's petition for Supreme Court review. It allows us all to move forward with a common purpose: protecting the rights of kanaka maoli, private individuals and Indigenous people everywhere to use our own resources to take care of our own people. As a Native Hawaiian trust, we will stand strong with other organizations and individuals to protect our assets. And as an Educational institution, we will move ahead with speed and diligence to extend our reach into our communities to more Native Hawaiian children and families, as our Princess intended. We have made significant gains in the number of children and families we serve in the past year, and we are ready to do more. You have been stalwart in your support as we have fought to protect our rights and our mission. Mahalo piha for all that you do for Kamehameha Schools and for the children and families we serve.
