1072229v1 2 DEC. OF MATTHEW MURPHEY10-CV-1758-DMS (WVG)

regarding Baseball Quick’s infringement claims. After several discussions, Mr. Schwartz

provided me with a proposed non-disclosure agreement in order to continue potential settlement

discussions. As his proposed non-disclosure agreement contained terms that included a several-

year covenant by Baseball Quick not to sue MLB Advanced Media, and a restriction for use of

any information disclosed by MLB, even in litigation, Baseball Quick rejected the agreement. In

December, 2010, Cynthia Franecki, litigation counsel for MLB Advanced Media, provided the

same non-disclosure agreement to my former partner, Gregg Anderson, and me. On December

13, 2010. Mr. Anderson and I modified the non-disclosure agreement and informed Ms. Franecki

Baseball Quick would agree to it and sign it. We never heard from Ms. Franecki again regarding

the non-disclosure agreement. To date, MLB Advanced Media has refused to provide us with

revenue information for MLB Condensed Games, or any other information to facilitate settlement

discussions, which I first (and repeatedly thereafter) requested from Mr. Schwartz in March, 13

2010, and later from Ms. Franecki.

3. In order to facilitate discussions, Baseball Quick granted MLB four separate

extensions in which to tile a responsive pleading. Baseball Quick did so in an attempt to

continued settlement discussions and to permit informal discovery regarding the revenue and

ratings generated by condensed games on MLB.com.

4. MLB did not answer the Complaint until January 3, 2011. (See Docket No. 21.) At

no time during the four-month period of discussions did MLB suggest that it would seek a motion

to transfer venue away from Southern District of California. Ms. Franecki first informed me of

her belief that the case should be transferred in January, 2011. MLB did not file a motion to

transfer venue until after the Court ordered a Neutral Evaluation Conference, along with a

schedule for filing initial disclosures and a Rule 26(f) report.
