1 I, Caroline C. Plater, declare as follows:

2 1. I am an associate at Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, counsel of record for
3 Defendant/Counter-Plaintiff American Blind & Wallpaper Factory, Inc. (“American Blind”) in
4 the above-captioned action. I am a member in good standing of the State Bar of Illinois. I have
5 personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this declaration and, if called as a witness, could and
6 would testify competently to such facts under oath:
7 2. American Blind seeks an order sealing the following document concurrently filed
8 herewith: Exhibit J to the Declaration of Susan Greenspon Submitted in Support of American
9 Blind and Wallpaper Factory, Inc.’s Opposition to Google Inc.’s Motion for Terminating,
10 Evidentiary, and Monetary Sanctions Against ABWF for Spoliation of Evidence (“Exhibit J”),
11 which contains copies of the Kaden Company Studies produced by American Blind, Bates range
12 ABWF002950 – 003017, that were designated “Attorneys Eyes Only” pursuant to the Protective
13 Order in this matter.
14 3. The documents contained in Exhibit J are sought to be filed under seal because
15 they contain highly sensitive and private information concerning the marketing, promotion, and
16 business strategies of American Blind. This information, if disclosed to the general public, would
17 be harmful to the ongoing competitive business of American Blind.
18 I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
19 Executed this 26th day of January 2007, in Chicago, Illinois.
