`
`I, Nicole E. Grigg, declare as follows:
`1.
`I am an associate attorney at the law firm of Duane Morris LLP and am counsel for
`Defendant SonicWall, Inc. (“SonicWall”). I have personal knowledge of the matters set forth in this

`I submit this Declaration in support of SonicWall’s Administrative Motion to File Documents Under
`Seal pursuant to Civil L.R. 79-5(e). In making this Declaration, it is not my intention, nor the
`intention of SonicWall, to waive the attorney-client privilege, the attorney work-product immunity,
`or any other applicable privilege.
`2.
`I have reviewed the following documents and confirmed that they consist of or quote
`directly from documents which either were designated under the Stipulated Protective Order by
`SonicWall or Finjan or contain

`Protective Order in this litigation or the Stipulated Protective Order in the Cisco case (Finjan LLC v.

`
`
`
`Good cause exists to seal the portions of the documents identified in the chart above
`4.
`for the reasons stated therein. SonicWall seeks to seal only those portions of the documents that
`contain “sealable” information, as defined in Civil Local Rule 79-5(d), and for which it has good
`cause to seal.
`I am informed and believe that, if filed publicly, SonicWall’s confidential information
`5.
`could be used by SonicWall’s competitors to SonicWall’s disadvantage, as it can be used to derive
`the confidential and proprietary business, financial, and technical information of SonicWall related
`to the accused products, including SonicWall’s highly sensitive source code, which, if disclosed,
`could result in competitive harm to SonicWall.
`I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of California and the United States that the
`foregoing is true and correct. Executed on March 11, 2021 in Alameda, California.
