`
`
`
`
`I, Marco Mazzoni, declare:
`
`1.
`
`Prior to 2005, my legal name was Mark Gavini. I was employed by
`
`Apple Inc. (“Apple”) from 1992 through 2000. In February 1999, I was the Audio
`
`Technologies Evangelist in Developer Relations. I am over the age of 18, I have
`
`personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and I am competent to testify
`
`regarding these facts.
`
`2.
`
`During my employment at Apple, my responsibilities included building
`
`relationships with third party developers of audio technologies for Apple products. I
`
`was not involved with the development of iTunes or the iTunes Music Store.
`
`I had
`
`not heard of the iTunes Music Store prior to my departure from Apple.
`
`3.
`
`I do not remember meeting with a SightSound entity in 1999, nor do I
`
`remember the name SightSound in general. I do not remember having received any
`
`materials from SightSound. I also do not recall ever communicating about
`
`SightSound or anything related to SightSound to anyone at Apple, including anyone
`
`who was involved with the development of iTunes or the iTunes Music Store.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of
`
`America that the foregoing is true and correct.
`
`Dated: March Q, 2014 WM
