NO. 137 Case No. C 13-05996 PJH (MEJ) 1 I, Nikki Stitt Sokol, declare as follows: 2 1. I am Associate General Counsel for Litigation for Defendant Facebook, Inc. 3 (“Facebook”). Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) and the Amended Stipulated Protective Order 4 entered by the Court on July 1, 2015 (the “Protective Order”) (Dkt. No. 93), I submit this Declaration 5 in support of Plaintiffs’ Administrative Motion to File Under Seal re Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class 6 Certification and Supporting Documents (Dkt. No. 137), which seeks to file under seal (1) designated 7 portions of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification (Dkt. No. 138); (2) designated portions of the 8 Expert Report of Jennifer Golbeck in support of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification (“Golbeck 9 Report”), which is Exhibit 2 to the Declaration of Melissa Gardner in support of Plaintiffs’ Motion 10 for Class Certification (“Gardner Cert. Declaration”); (3) designated portions of the Expert Report of 11 Fernando Torres in support of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification (“Torres Report”), which is 12 13 14 15 16 17 Exhibit 33 to the Gardner Cert. Declaration; (4) designated portions of Facebook’s Supplemental Responses and Objections to Plaintiffs’ Narrowed Second Set of Interrogatories (“Facebook’s Supplemental Discovery Responses”), which is Exhibit 20 to the Gardner Cert. Declaration; and (5) Exhibits 3-18, 27-30, and 34-35 to the Gardner Cert. Declaration, in their entirety. Except as otherwise noted, I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this Declaration and, if called and sworn as a witness, could and would testify competently to them. 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP 2. Facebook respectfully requests that the Court allow the below-referenced documents (or relevant portions of those documents) to be filed under seal due to their confidential nature. As discussed below, the documents constitute, reflect, contain, or discuss confidential information that is protectable as a trade secret or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. I respectfully submit that the presumption of access to judicial records does not apply here because the documents at issue are being filed in connection with a non-dispositive motion (see In re Midland Nat’l Life Ins. Co. Annuity Sales Practices Litig., 686 F.3d 1115, 1119 (9th Cir. 2012)1), and therefore the appropriate 1 See also In re High-Tech Employee Antitrust Litig., No. 11-CV-02509, 2013 U.S. Dist.

See Kamakana v. 2 City and County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1180 (9th Cir. 2006) (“A ‘good cause’ showing will 3 suffice to seal documents produced in discovery. Fed.R.Civ.P.26(c) (stating that if ‘good cause’ is 4 shown in discovery, a district court may issue ‘any order which justice requires to protect a party or 5 person from annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, or undue burden or expense’).”). For the benefit 6 of the Court, to the extent possible I discuss the documents by category. 7 Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification 8 9 3. Good cause exists to seal portions of Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification. Specifically, the following portions contain non-public, confidential, and proprietary Facebook 10 business information that Facebook designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ 11 EYES ONLY pursuant to the Protective Order. The public does not have a meaningful interest in 12 obtaining such information, and public disclosure of this information would cause particularized 13 harm to Facebook by allowing its competitors to access sensitive information, which they could use 14 to gain an unfair advantage against Facebook. Such information could also be used by individuals or 15 companies that might seek to compromise the security of Facebook’s messages technology, causing 16 harm to Facebook and the people who use Facebook’s services: 17 18 Sealable Portions ii:8-9 19 20 21 1:12-13 1:13-15 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP 1:16-17 1:18-19 Reason for Confidentiality This information concerns the internal processes and functionality of Facebook’s messages technology that is protectable as a trade secret or otherwise entitled to protection under the law.

The Torres Report 5. Good cause exists to seal portions of the Torres Report. Specifically, the following portions contain non-public, confidential, and proprietary Facebook business information that Facebook designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY pursuant to the Protective Order. The public does not have a meaningful interest in obtaining such information, and public disclosure of this information would cause particularized harm to Facebook by allowing its competitors to access sensitive information, which they could use to gain an unfair advantage against Facebook. Such information could also be used by individuals or companies that might seek to compromise the security of Facebook’s messages technology, causing harm to Facebook and the people who use Facebook’s services. 20 21 22 Sealable Portions 3:7-9 3:13-14 23 24 12:1-9 12:11-12 25 26 fn. 54 at 12:22-23 27 28 Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP fn. 55 at 12:24 Text The information redacted by Plaintiffs does not need to be sealed.

Only the text following “From the document production” needs to be redacted. Facebook’s Supplemental Discovery Responses 6. Good cause exists to seal the information redacted by Plaintiffs within the columns 10 entitled “To,” “From,” “Date,” “URL” in Exhibit 1 to Facebook’s Supplemental Discovery 11 Responses, as the Court previously held that there was good cause to seal the identifying information 12 about the senders and recipients on the messages included in Exhibit 1, as well as the time and date of 13 the messages, and the URL contained in the messages. (Dkt. No. 131.) As the Magistrate Judge 14 noted in her prior order, the exposure of the redacted information in Exhibit 1 to Facebook’s 15 Supplemental Discovery Responses “risks subjecting the persons identified in this document to 16 annoyance, embarrassment, or other significant harm, and the public has no meaningful need to 17 obtain this information at this time.” Id. 18 Exhibits to the Gardner Cert.

Good cause exists to seal Exhibits 4-18, 27-30, and 34-35 to the Gardner Cert. 20 Declaration (Exhibits I through DD to the Gardner Declaration in support of Plaintiffs’ motion to 21 seal) under seal in their entirety for the reasons specified below. Specifically, the Exhibits contain 22 non-public, confidential, and proprietary Facebook business information that Facebook designated as 23 HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY pursuant to the Protective Order. The 24 public does not have a meaningful interest in obtaining such information, and public disclosure of 25 this information would cause particularized harm to Facebook by allowing its competitors to access 26 sensitive information, which they could use to gain an unfair advantage against Facebook. Such 27 information could also be used by individuals or companies that might seek to compromise the 28 Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP 22 DECLARATION OF NIKKI STITT SOKOL IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFFS’ ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO FILE DOCUMENTS UNDER SEAL – DKT.

Plaintiffs also proposed to file Exhibit 3 to the Gardner Cert. Declaration—Facebook’s 4 Supplemental Responses and Objections to Plaintiffs’ First Set of Interrogatories (Exhibit H to the 5 Gardner Declaration in support of Plaintiffs’ motion to seal)—under seal in its entirety, but the 6 Magistrate Judge previously held that there was good cause to seal only certain portions of Exhibit 3, 7 as those portions contain potential trade secrets or otherwise protectable information relating to 8 Facebook’s internal processes and tools that risk particularized harm to Facebook if revealed, and 9 which the public does not at this time have a particular interest in obtaining. (Dkt. No. 131.) 10 Accordingly, in conformity with the Court’s prior order, good cause exists to seal only the following 11 portions of Exhibit 3 to the Gardner Cert. Declaration: 3:23-24; 5:24 (the text following “defenses in 12 this action”)-27; 8:9-25; 9:18-11:24; 12:26-16:13; 17:9-20:24; 21:24-25:11; 26:7-29:22; 30:23-33:4; 13 33:27-36:15; 37:15-38:18; 39:15-40:18; 41:15-42:18; 43:13-44:16; 45:16-21; and 46:18-23. 14 15 16 Document to Be Sealed Exhibit J (Gardner Cert.
