`
`I, K. Nicole Williams, hereby declare and state as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am licensed to practice in the State of California and am a principal in the law firm
`
`of Fish & Richardson P.C., counsel of record for Plaintiff Finjan LLC (“Finjan”) in the above-
`
`captioned matter. I have personal knowledge of all the facts contained herein and, if called as a
`
`witness, I could and would testify competently thereto.
`
`2.
`
`I submit this declaration in support of SonicWall’s Administration Motion to File
`
`Under Seal its Reply in Support of its Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (ECF No. 335),
`
`pursuant to Civil Local Rules 79-5(d)-(e) and this Court’s Standing Order. The basis for asserting
`
`confidentiality and the grounds for filing the documents under seal are as follows:
`
`or
`
`ECF
`Exh. No.
`Ex. 45 to
`Gunther
`Declaration;
`ECF No.

`Dennison to Forte et
`al. and Finjan’s
`Privilege Log
`
`Entirety
`
`This document reflects
`information regarding
`Finjan’s internal business
`practices and licensing
`negotiations, which Finjan
`has designated “HIGHLY
`CONFIDENTIAL –
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES
`ONLY” under the
`Protective Order (ECF No.
`68). Public disclosure of
`this information would
`cause harm to Finjan. See
`Declaration of K. Nicole
`Williams in Support of
`SonicWall’s
`Administrative Motion to
`File Under Seal (“Williams
`Decl.”) ¶ 3.
`
`
`

`
`I have reviewed Exhibit 45 to the Declaration of Jarrad M. Gunther in Support of
`
`Defendant SonicWall Inc.’s Reply in Support of its Motion for Partial Summary Judgment
`
`(“Gunther Declaration”). (ECF No. 335-9.) Exhibit 45 to the Gunther Declaration reflects

`
`
`
`
`information regarding Finjan’s business practices and licensing negotiations, which Finjan
`
`designated as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” subject to the
`
`Protective Order. Finjan treats this confidential business and licensing information as highly
`
`confidential within its business and makes substantial efforts not to disclose such information to the
`
`public. Such information could be used by Finjan’s competitors to gain an advantage in negotiations
`
`with Finjan as well as to harm it in the market place, as it reveals information related to Finjan’s
`
`internal business practices and dealings. Accordingly, good cause and compelling reasons exist to
`
`seal Ex. 45 to the Gunther Declaration.
`
`4.
`
`Based upon the foregoing, Finjan requests that Exhibit 45 to the Gunther Declaration
`
`remain under seal.
`
`I declare under the penalty of perjury of the laws of the United States of America that the
`
`foregoing is true and correct. Executed on January 4, 2021, in Encinitas, California.
