Facebook Inc. (“Facebook”) submits this reply brief to address Leader Technology, Inc.’s
(“LTI’s”) inexplicable opposition to Facebook’s request to redact confidential information
discussed during the teleconference with Judge Stark, held on April 9, 2010. The requested
redactions are appropriate despite Leader’s conclusory assertions to the contrary.
The Stipulated Protective Order entered by the Court in this matter on April 28, 2009
(D.I. 35) allows the parties to designate as confidential, material that is non-public confidential
and/or propriety information, protectable under Rule 26(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure.

The April 9 teleconference included discussion of confidential information related

to, among other things, the development of Facebook’s website.

See, e.g., D.I. 344,

Teleconference Hearing Transcript of April 9, 2010 at 11:7-20. Facebook has accordingly
sought to protect the information it considers confidential by requesting redaction, and LTI’s
opposition includes no justification for denying Facebook’s request.

Facebook therefore

respectfully requests that this Court grant Facebook’s motion for redaction.
