However, the deposition excerpts and exhibits attached as 13 Exhibits M, N, LL, MM, and OO to the Jenkins Declaration remain designated by Apple as either 14 CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY under the 15 interim protective order.

Apple has 10 indicated that this document “Contains Highly Confidential – Outside Attorney’s Eyes Only 11 Information” pursuant to the interim protective order. Pursuant to General Order No. 62, a copy 12 of Exhibit FF of the Jenkins Declaration has been lodged with the Court for in camera review, 13 served on all parties, and will be e-filed with the Court pending the Court’s granting of this 14 Motion to Seal. 15 6.

MOTION TO FILE UNDER SEAL 1 Jenkins Declaration has been lodged with the Court for in camera review, served on all parties, 2 and will be e-filed with the Court pending the Court’s granting of this Motion to Seal. 3 8. Given that Apple designated all or portions of the excerpts and exhibits of the 4 depositions of Richard Lutton, Cooper Woodring, Christopher Stringer, Bas Ording and Sissie 5 Twiggs and Apple Inc.’s Objections and Responses to Samsung’s Interrogatories to Apple 6 Relating to Apple Inc.’s Motion for Preliminary Injunction as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY 7 CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY, those documents, excerpts and exhibits attached 8 as Exhibits M, N, O, LL, P, FF, HH, MM, NN, OO, and QQ to the Jenkins Declaration are 9 properly filed under seal under Local Rule 79-5(d). 10 9. On July 21, 2011, the Declaration of Richard J. Lutton in Support of Apple’s 11 Motion for a Preliminary Injunction (“Lutton Decl.”) was e-filed under seal. Dkt. No. 128. 12 10. The Declaration of Michael Wagner (“Wagner Decl.”), and Exhibits B, D and E to 13 the Wagner Decl., submitted in support of Samsung’s Opposition to Apple’s Motion for 14 Preliminary Injunction, discuss documents that have been produced and designated 15 CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY by Apple. 16 Pursuant to General Order No. 62, copies of the Declaration of Michael Wagner and its exhibits 17 have been lodged with the Court for in camera review, served on all parties, and will be e-filed 18 with the Court pending the Court’s granting of this Motion to Seal. 19 11. Paragraph 58 and Exhibit 3 of the Declaration of Jeffrey Johnson (“Johnson 20 Decl.”), submitted in support of Samsung’s Opposition to Apple’s Motion for Preliminary 21 Injunction, include confidential, non-public Samsung information, including highly confidential 22 source code, which constitute Samsung trade secrets and intellectual property. Pursuant to 23 General Order No. 62, a copy of the Declaration of Jeffrey Johnson has been lodged with the 24 Court for in camera review, served on all parties, and will be e-filed with the Court pending the 25 Court’s granting of this Motion to Seal. 26 12. Since the information discussed in the paragraphs listed above from the Wagner 27 Decl. and the Johnson Decl. has been designated by Apple as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL28 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY or constitutes highly confidential Samsung trade secrets and source Case No. 11-cv-01846-LHK -4DECL. OF MELISSA N. CHAN ISO SAMSUNG’S ADMIN. MOTION TO FILE UNDER SEAL 1 code, the paragraphs listed above from those Declarations are properly filed under seal under 2 Local Rule 79-5. 3 13. The confidential, unredacted version of Samsung’s Opposition to Apple’s Motion 4 for a Preliminary Injunction (“Opposition”) contains information or testimony from each of the 5 excerpts designated CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEYS’ EYES 6 ONLY from the Lutton Tr., the Twiggs Tr., the Woodring Tr., the Stringer Tr., and the Ording Tr. 7 The Opposition also includes information from the paragraphs referenced above from the Lutton 8 Decl., the Wagner Decl., and the Johnson Decl.

On August 18, 2011, my colleague, Sara Jenkins, counsel for Samsung, e-mailed 13 counsel for Apple, requesting that Apple agree to the filing under seal of the sections of 14 Samsung’s Opposition to Apple’s Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, and the supporting 15 declarations or exhibits, which include confidential information. In response to this email, 16 Apple’s counsel indicated that Apple would not oppose Samsung’s Administrative Motion to file 17 this information under seal. 18 I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the foregoing is 19 true and correct.
