I, CARTER GLAHN, hereby declare that: 1. I am an attorney at law duly licensed to practice before all courts of the State of

5.

The draft of the 09/29/08 Letter had an attachment which listed 259 videos as

being the specific identified items which were being addressed by the 09/29/08 Letter (the "Attachment"). 6. I reviewed the text of the draft of the 09/29/08 Letter, made final edits and caused

the 09/29/08 Letter to be issued on September 29, 2008. 7. The document attached as Exhibit "B" to the accompanying Motion for Summary

Judgment of defendant MICHAEL SAVAGE aka MICHAEL WEINER and points and authorities in support thereof is a true and correct copy of the 09/29/08 Letter, inclusive of the Attachment. 8. I issued the 09/29/08 Letter on behalf of OTRN alone. I did not speak or

otherwise communicate in any way with defendant MICHAEL WEINER aka MICHAEL SAVAGE ("Savage"), or any representative of Savage, concerning the 09/29/08 Letter, whether prior to issuance of the 09/29/08 Letter, or thereafter. 9. My sole communications with respect to the 9/29/08 Letter, aside from

administrative communications with staff assistants, were with Ronald H. Severaid. 10. I was never under the impression, belief or understanding, at any time, or from any source, that I was issuing the 9/29/08 Letter as an agent for Savage. To the contrary, I issued the 9/29/08 Letter solely as counsel for OTRN.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct and that this declaration is executed on the 8th day of May, 2009, at Sacramento, California.
