The

Ex

Parte

Motion

to

Extend

the

Temporary

Protective

Order

of

Plaintiff/Counterclaimant Frank Nemirofsky ("Plaintiff") relates to an agreement between Defendant/Counterclaimant STV Asia, LTD. ("STV") and PRN Corporation ("PRN"). This agreement included the following provision: "The parties agree that the terms of this Agreement will be treated as confidential and maintained in confidence and will not be disclosed to any other person...." STV would be in violation of its obligations under the agreement if Defendants were to file their opposition to Plaintiff without portions shielded from the public. 3. On June 25, 2007, I called Plaintiff's counsel, Robyn Callahan, to inquire about

stipulating to the filing of a portion of Defendants' opposition under seal. Ms. Callahan did not pick up her phone, so I left her a voicemail. I have not heard back from Ms. Callahan. However, it is reasonable to assume that Plaintiff would agree to the filing of a portion of Defendants' opposition under seal, since a portion of Plaintiff's motion was filed under seal. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct, and that this declaration is executed in San Francisco, California on June 25, 2007.
