[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING DIRECT PURCHASER PLAINTIFFS’ ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO

SEAL DOCUMENTS, Case No. 3:07-cv-5944 SC; MDL No. 1917

The Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs filed an Administrative Motion to Seal Documents

Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 7-11 and 79-5(d) (Dkt. No. 1057) (“Motion to Seal”) related to the

filing of the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs’ Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Opposition to

Defendants’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (“DPPs’ Opposition”), the Declaration of R.

Alexander Saveri in Opposition to Defendants’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (“Saveri

Declaration”), and the exhibits attached to the Saveri Declaration, all of which were lodged

conditionally under seal on February 24, 2012 pursuant to Plaintiffs’ Motion to Seal. Defendant LG

Electronics, Inc. (“LGEI”) filed the Declaration of Eric Shapland (“Shapland Declaration”) in

support of Plaintiffs’ Motion to Seal, requesting a narrowly tailored order to maintain a certain

document under seal.

The document at issue is the Saveri Declaration Exhibit 32. Exhibit 32 is LGEI’s

Supplemental Response to Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs’ First Set of Interrogatories, Nos. 4 and 5,

designated by LGEI as “Confidential” under the Protective Order.

After due consideration of the papers submitted and the arguments of counsel, the

Court finds that the above materials described in the Shapland Declaration contain proprietary and

sensitive business information, and a substantial probability exists that LGEI would be

competitively harmed if the materials were publicly disclosed. The Court also finds that LGEI has

narrowly tailored this sealing request to only the exhibit thereto necessary to protect its proprietary

and sensitive business information. The Court thus finds compelling reasons to maintain under seal

the materials described in the Shapland Declaration.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Saveri Declaration Exhibit 32 shall be

maintained permanently under seal in its entirety.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:

HONORABLE SAMUEL CONTI

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
