RE:       Permanent Confidentiality
          Applicant: Quake Global, Inc.
          FCC ID: PB5NQLOCATE/Contains FCCID Q639603N

To Whom It May Concern:

Quake Global, Inc. (“QUAKE”) hereby submits the following request for Long-Term Confidentiality, to
withhold permanently from public review certain portions of the application for equipment certification for the
above referenced FCC identifier (the “Product”). This request for Long-Term Confidentiality is made
pursuant to §§ CFR 0.457(d) and 0.459 of the FCC Rules. In particular, the following sections of the
application are to be kept permanently confidential:



      •   Schematics
      •   Block Diagrams
      •   Operational Description
      •   Attestation Statements BOM
      •   Part List/Tune-up procedure
      •   Internal Photos
      •   User Manuals

Internal Photos (including circuit board and/or internal components)
Quake has invested considerable time and materials in research and development to produce the referenced
product. Permanent Confidentiality of QUAKE’s Product is permissible because the Product is a non-
consumer device, not made available to the general public. The Product requires professional installation. The
device contains aluminum RF shielding and is protected under NDA along with a tamper proof seal, so no user
can legally open or see the Propriety design of our PCA or components used. All sales of the non-consumer
device will be under a NDA to include third party sales and that the final user of the device is subject to the
NDA. In addition, all photos are controlled to prevent them from becoming public or disclosed to
unauthorized persons. They are not available unless access is granted after first signing and NDA.


User Manuals
User Manuals and User Guides are controlled to prevent them from becoming public or disclosed to
unauthorized persons. They are only available via a secure website on the Quake environment. Access to this
secure website is only available after first signing an NDA (sample provided under separate copy).

                                                     1(2)


In addition, the above listed materials contain Quake’s trade secrets and proprietary information, which is
strictly maintained under NDA with all its customers and vendors, as well as employees. Attached herewith is
true and correct copy of Quake’s standard NDA. Any public disclosure of these materials may be harmful to
Quake and will provide unjustified benefits to Quake’s competitors.



Sincerely,




Darrin Calin
Vice President of Operations
Quake Global, Inc.




                                                    2(2)
