DECLARATION OF SAMUEL BAHUN
I, Samuel Bahun, declare as follows:
1.
I am the Director of Strategic Accounts for MarkMonitor Inc. ("MarkMonitor").
MarkMonitor offers comprehensive solutions and services that safeguard copyright owners'
reputations and revenues from online risks. As Director of Strategic Accounts for MarkMonitor,
I am responsible for managing the relationships and projects for many of MarkMonitor' s major
accounts. I have held that position since 2010. The facts contained herein are based on my
personal knowledge, my review of records and inquiry of appropriate MarkMonitor personnel.
If called as a witness, I will provide testimony regarding the subject matter addressed in this
declaration.
2.
Since May 7,2013, employees of MarkMonitor have regularly monitored the
content available in Washington D.C. on the www.filmon.com website. A MarkMonitor
employee utilized a computer that was physically located in Washington D.C. to access the
"local channels" category available on the www.filmon.com homepage. The employee then
clicked on links for every "local channel" that was labeled as an "ABC," "CBS," "NBC" and
"Telemundo" channel. After each of those channels was selected by MarkMonitor's employee,
an advertisement was displayed and then a television broadcast started to play in the video player
on the www.filmon.com website. For example, when the channel "ABC Washington" was
selected, an advertisement played and then the ABC station in Washington D.C., WJLA-TV,
began playing in the video player on the www.filmon.com website. Similarly, when the channel
"ABC 7 NY" was selected, an advertisement played and then the ABC station in New York,
WNBC-TV, began playing in the video player on the www.filmon.com website. Once the
advertisement was complete and the television programming started to play in the video player,
MarkMonitor's employee captured a static "screen shot" of the programming made available on
the www.filmon.com website in Washington D.C.

In the course of MarkMonitor's monitoring the www.filmon.com website, I have
learned that WJLA-TV is the ABC affiliated television station for the Washington D.C.
