DECLARATION OF DENNIS MONTGOMERY

2
3

I, Dennis Montgomery, declare and state as follows:

1.

I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this Declaration and, if called as a

5 witness, could and would testify competently to such facts under oath.
6

2.

In early 2006, the Montgomery Parties were involved in litigation with eTreppid in

7 federal and state court and were also in discussions regarding the employment of me by OpSpring.
8 The Montgomery Parties and OpSpring anticipated (correctly) that after we reached agreement on
9 my employment, OpSpring would be named as a party in the litigation by eTreppid. The
10 Montgomery Parties and OpSpring sought to evaluate the risks and opportunities presented by such
11 anticipated litigation, to prepare for such litigation, and to conduct the litigation efficiently and
12 effectively. In furtherance of those goals, the Montgomery Parties and OpSpring agreed that we
13 would exchange information relating to the actual and potential litigation and would maintain all
14 such information in the strictest confidence.
15

3.

Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of a written Common

16 Interest, Confidentiality, and Cooperation Agreement dated April 5, 2006 (hereinafter, the "Written
17 Agreement").
18

4.

Pursuant to the parties' agreement as reflected in the Written Agreement, the parties

19 and counsel for the parties exchanged certain confidential information for purposes of evaluating,
20 preparing for, and defending the litigation involving eTreppid.
21

5.

In doing so, we abided by the strict confidentiality requirements set out in the

22 Written Agreement and intended that the exchange of information not alter the privileged and
23 confidential nature of the information.

6.

The information exchanged pursuant to the Written Agreement was not shared with

2 any third parties and the Montgomery Parties and OpSpring took appropriate steps to preserve the
3 confidentiality of the that information.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the

claims, including without limitation those claims pied in the Litigations. Pursuant to this assignment,

disputes involving some or all of the Parties that may arise related to the subject matter hereof
(collectively with the Litigations, "Disputes"). Opspring agrees to pay a maximum of$1,000,000 per
year for three (3) years to be applied, in Opspring' sole discretion, to Opspring's legal fees and
expenses and Montgomery's legal fees and expenses in connection with the Disputes incurred after
the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any fees or
expenses incurred by a Party that are not paid for by Opspring pursuant to the immediately foregoing
sentence shall be the sole obligation of the Party incurring such fees or expenses. Subject to the

its client the limitations on the direct use of the information obtained pursuant to this Agreement.
Each Party represents that it has considered the foregoing and believes that the benefits of being a
Party to this Agreement outweigh any of the limitations imposed hereby. Therefore, as a condition
precedent to the receipt of any Confidential Materials or Common Interest information, each Party
represents and covenants that it will not (and will not allow its counsel to) assert any future claim
that any attorney covered by this Agreement is disqualified or barred from representation by virtue of
its receipt of Confidential Materials or Common Interest information. Neither the existence of this
Agreement, nor the exchange of Confidential Materials, nor the assistance and representation by
either Party's legal counsel to analyze and provide advice, work product, mental impressions, and
opinions regarding the Common Interests shall be used by any Party or its counsel as the basis of any
claim that any legal counsel is disqualified from representing any person or entity in any matter,
including the Litigations or a dispute or litigation between one or more Parties to this Agreement.
5

CONFIDENTIAL

Case 3:06-cv-00056-PMP-VPC Document 718 Filed 06/30/08 Page 10 of 14

All Parties to this Agreement and their counsel hereby waive their right to seek such disqualification

be deemed to be, an admission of any liability on the part of any Party or of the existence of facts
upon which liability could be based or inferred.

Party to claim that privileges or protections greater or other than those specified in this Agreement
exist with respect to any information, communication, or docwnent relating to the Common

Section 12. Severability. If any prov1s1on of this Agreement is deemed invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 13. Modification. Any modification or waiver of this Agreement or addition of a
new party must be agreed upon in writing by Opspring and Dennis Montgomery. Any such

notwithstanding the withdrawal from or discontinuance of participation in the Common Interest
Efforts by any Party to this Agreement. Any Party that withdraws from or discontinues participation
in the Common Interest Efforts shall remain bound by this Agreement.
Section 15. FEo. R. EVID. 408. The Parties intend and agree that this Agreement, as well
as their discussions and communications among themselves and with other Parties relating to the
matters covered in this Agreement, are to be afforded the full scope of the protection provided in the
Federal Rules of Evidence, including, without limitation, Rule 408, which limits the admissibility of
settlement-related materials.
Section 16. Remedy for Breach. The Parties and their counsel acknowledge that disclosure
of any Confidential Materials in violation of this Agreement will cause the non-disclosing Parties to
suffer irreparable harm for which there is no adequate legal remedy. Notwithstanding other
provisions of this Agreement regarding dispute resolution, each Party acknowledges that preliminary,
temporary, or permanent relief-including injunctive relief, prohibiting each other Party and its
counsel, and/or prohibiting any third party (and/or its counsel) to whom any Confidential Materials
have been disclosed, from disclosing or using any such Confidential Materials in any manner not
expressly contemplated by this Agreement, without proof of actual damages and without any
requirement for the securing or posting of a bond-is an appropriate and necessary remedy for
violation of this Agreement. In addition to any other remedies available, performance of this
Agreement may be specifically .ordered. The Parties hereby expressly consent to the personal
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in King County, Washington for any lawsuit filed
there arising from or related to this Agreement to seek injunctive relief. I agree that the prevailing
party will be entitled to its costs and attorneys' fees incurred in any litigation or dispute relating to
the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement.

in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington (without regard to its choice of law rules).

from or related to the Common Interest Efforts, those disputes will be resolved exclusively by final
and binding arbitration conducted by a neutral arbitrator appointed by Judicial Dispute Resolution
LLC ("JDR") of Seattle, Washington. If JDR is unable or unwilling to so act, then it shall be
substituted with the Seattle office of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. ("JAMS").

the arbitrator may decide any issue as to discovery. The arbitrator shall prepare a written award
stating the findings of fact and conclusions of law that form the basis for that award. Each party may
be represented by counsel at the arbitration. The location of the arbitration shall be Seattle,
