MISCELLANEOUS ADMINISTRATIVE REQUEST TO FILE DOCUMENT UNDER SEAL 

CASE NO. C 06-2584 CRB 

394882.01 

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d), defendants Gap International Sales, Inc., The Gap, 

Inc., Banana Republic, LLC and Old Navy, LLC (collectively “Gap”) hereby make this 

Miscellaneous Administrative Request to File a Document Under Seal. 

The document that is the subject of this request is Exhibit A to the Declaration of Ron 

Young in Support of Defendants’ Motion for an Order Upholding Their Confidentiality 

Designations Under the Protective Order, which bears bates numbers GGD_0013975—

GGD_0014003. There is good cause to file Exhibit A to the Young Declaration under seal. Gap 

has marked the document “Highly Confidential” pursuant to the parties’ stipulated protective 

order. It is a March 22, 2005 draft of a presentation to Gap’s board of directors that details 

Gap’s strategies for competing internationally. If Gap’s competitors were allowed to see this 

document, Gap’s ability to successfully execute its strategy would be greatly impaired, if not 

destroyed completely. See Young Decl. ¶ 3. 

Accordingly, Gap respectfully requests that the Court permit the sealing of the document 

set forth above, and order that the Clerk of the Court maintain it in accordance with the 

provisions of Local Civil Rule 79-5(e).
