Case No. CO4-01867 JW -3- 50824/36792.1

Declaration of Patrick C. Doolittle In Support of 

IBM's Administrative Motion to File Document Under Seal

I, PATRICK C. DOOLITTLE, declare as follows:

1. I am an attorney at law, duly licensed to practice in the State of California. I am

an associate with the law firm of Quinn, Emanuel, Urquhart, Oliver & Hedges, counsel for

Defendant Scott Epstein. I submit this declaration in support of IBM's Administrative Motion to

File Document Under Seal. Unless otherwise noted, I have personal knowledge of the facts

stated in this declaration, and if called upon to do so, could and would competently testify

thereto.

2. The Declaration of Susan Grey in Support of IBM's Motion for Summary

Judgment has one Exhibit, Exhibit A. I have reviewed Exhibit A to Ms. Grey's Declaration and

it is a document entitled Staff Reduction Selection Worksheet. The document contains

information that may raise privacy concerns of the plaintiff and other individuals referenced since

it relates to their job performance, as assessed by management. 

3. Exhibits 15 and 16 of my declaration in support of IBM's Motion for Summary

Judgment are plaintiff's performance reviews.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of California that the

foregoing is true and correct.

Executed this 24th day of October 2005, at Redwood Shores, California.
