AFFIDAVIT STATE OF WASHINGTON SS.
COUNTY OF BENTON I, H. D. Curet being duly sworn, hereby say and depose:
- 1.
I am Manager, Product Licensing, for Siemens Power Corporation ("SPC"),

Information contained in this Document has been classified by SPC as proprietary in accordance with the control system and policies established by SPC for the control and protection of information.
- 4.
The Document contains information of a proprietary and confidential nature and is of the type customarily held in confidence by SPC and not made available to the public. Based on my experience, I am aware that other companies regard information of the kind contained in the Document as proprietary and confidential.
Commission in confidence, with the request that the information contained in the Document will not be disclosed or divulged.
- 6.
The Document contains information which is vital to a competitive advantage of SPC and would be helpful to competitors of SPC when competing with SPC.
- 7.
The information contained in the Document is considered to be proprietary by SPC because it reveals certain distinguishing aspects of SPC licensing methodology which secure competitive advantage to SPC for fuel design optimization and marketability, and includes information utilized by SPC in its business which affords SPC an opportunity to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors who do not or may not know or use the information contained in the Document.
- 8.
The disclosure of the proprietary information contained in the Document to a competitor would permit the competitor to reduce its expenditure of money and manpower and to improve its competitive posit.ion by giving it valuable insights into SPC licensing methodology and would result in substantial harm to the competitive position of SPC.
- 9.
- The Document.contains proprietary information which is held in confidence.by SPC and is not available in public sources.

- 12.
Information in this Document provides insight into SPC licensing methodology developed by SPC. SPC has invested significant resources in developing the methodology as well as the strategy for this application. Assuming a competitor had
c available the same background data and incentives as SPC, the competitor might, at a minimum, develop the information for the same expenditure of manpower and money as SPC.
THAT the statements made hereinabove are, to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, truthful and *complete..
FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NOT.
