Horizon Hobby, LLC_ has spent substantial effort in developing this product and it is one of the first of its kind
in industry. Having the subject information easily available to "competition" would negate the advantage they
have achieved by developing this product. Not protecting the details of the design will result in financial
hardship.


Reason why the material should be withheld from public inspection:

These documents contain detailed system, equipment description and related information about the
product which Horizon Hobby, LLC considers proprletary, Conf|dent1al and a custom design not otherwise
available to the general public.

State why the information is a "trade secret;"

Since the designis a basis from which future products will evolve, Horizon Hobby, LLC considers that this
information would be of significant benefit to its competitors and that disclosure would give competitors an
unfair advantage in the marketplace.

Trade secret" information is information which is not generally known or reasonably ascertainable, by which a business can obtain
an economic advantage over competitors. The information is not normally released to any party or person outside the company.



Permanent Confidentiality:

public review due to materials that contain trade secrets and proprietary information not customarily released
