(“Google”) requests that the Commission withhold the following attachment associated with the Class II permissive change application for the above-referenced FCC ID from public disclosure indefinitely: Antenna Specification The market for the technology that is the subject of the application is highly competitive, with numerous companies competing for the business of potential customers. Were Google’s competitors to become aware of the facts set forth in the above-referenced exhibit to the application, it could have an adverse impact on Google’s competitive standing and deprive Google of the marketplace benefit it otherwise might achieve by virtue of having product available before other competitors. If any of the information for which confidential treatment is sought were to be made publicly available, Google’s competitors could reasonably determine the scope and status of our activities. The information contained in the above-referenced exhibit has been strictly controlled by Google, with distribution limited to internal use only and for the specific purpose of conducting research, development, and testing of the technology. Given the competitive nature of the marketplace, any disclosure that Google has developed the technology discussed in the above-reference exhibit to the application would harm Google’s competitive position. The information subject to this request for confidentiality should not be made available for public disclosure at any time. In addition, Google requests that the Commission grant short-term confidential treatment and not release the following attachments associated with the Class II permissive change application for the above-referenced FCC ID from routine public disclosure until 180 days following the grant of this application: Internal photo reflecting change Test set-up photos Google respectfully seeks confidential treatment of the above-referenced attachments for the same reasons stated above and in order to comply with the marketing regulations in 47 CFR

It is our understanding that all measurement test reports and correspondence during the certification review process cannot be granted confidential treatment, and such information will be available for public review once the grant of equipment authorization is issued.
