AFFIDAVIT

OF KENNETH DAVID LONG

______________________

I, KENNETH DAVID LONG of 1301 North Catalina, Los Angeles, California 90027, United States, an executive employed in the Legal Division of the Church of Scientology of California, MAKE OATH and say as follows:

1. I have been a member of the Church of Scientology for eleven years, and employed by the Church of Scientology of California (hereinafter the "Church") for the past seven years. The Church is a non-profit making religious

-2-

corporation registered in California since 1954. My duties for the past five years have required that I work closely with and assist Church counsel in all phases of litigation in the United States.

2. I wish to inform the Court at the very outset of this Affidavit that it is not in any way the intention of the Church to prevent the publication of Mr. Miller's book, or the Sunday Times serialisation of Mr. Miller's book. It is, however, the full intention of the Church to prevent publication of the photographs owned by the Church, and the information and documents obtained from the Church as a result of a breach of confidence and in violation of court orders.

3. I have been deeply involved in the litigation of the case of {Church of Scientology of California and Mary Sue} {Hubbard v. Gerald Armstrong}, Los Angeles Superior Court case number C 420153, since the inception of that litigation on August 2, 1982. During the course of my participation in that litigation, I personally inventoried the materials surrendered pursuant to court order to the Clerk of the Los Angeles Superior Court in September 1982 by Gerald Armstrong and his counsel. I also attended almost every deposition and/or pre-trial proceeding held in that case, and was present as an assistant to counsel throughout each day of the trial proceedings in May and June, 1984.

4. As will be made clear for the Court in the paragraphs immediately following, the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong

-3-

involved thousands of documents covering a wide range of subjects. Mr. Armstrong admitted in oral testimony given in August 1982 that he had taken over 5,000 pages of original documents and 5,000 pages of xeroxed copies of documents, all of which originated from the Archives then maintained by the Church of Scientology of California. There is now produced and shown to me marked as "KDL 27" pages 234 to 235 from the deposition of Gerald Armstrong taken on August 18, 1982. As will also be made clear for the Court in the paragraphs immediately following, the vast majority of the documents taken by Mr. Armstrong remained under seal without interruption from September 1982, when Mr. Armstrong and his counsel surrendered said documents into the custody of the Clerk of the Los Angeles Superior Court, until December 1986, when said documents were returned to the Church. Additionally, through the efforts of Church representatives and counsel, the remaining documents likewise remained under seal throughout the same period, and were never available for copying by members of the public.

5. It was the theft by Mr. Armstrong of those documents, which included the boyhood diaries and journals of Mr. L. Ron Hubbard, letters between Mr. Hubbard and his family, correspondence between Mr. Hubbard and his friends and associates spanning over forty years, Mr. Hubbard's military records, and so forth, which formed the basis for the Church's action against Mr. Armstrong on August 2, 1982.

-4-

6. On August 24, 1982, the Los Angeles Superior Court issued a temporary restraining order, a copy of which was attached to my previous Affidavit of October 5, 1987 as Exhibit "KDL 15." That temporary restraining order required Mr. Armstrong, his attorneys, agents, and all persons working in concert or participation with him to surrender to the Clerk of the Court all of the materials originating in the Church archives which had been taken by Mr. Armstrong. The order further required that the materials, when surrendered to the Court, be maintained under seal and available only to the parties for use in that litigation only. This temporary restraining order was then superseded, on September 24, 1982, by a preliminary injunction, which was also attached to my prior Affidavit as Exhibit "KDL 16." The preliminary injunction maintained the sealing provisions established by the temporary restraining order.

7. The preliminary injunction remained in full force and effect with respect to all of the documents surrendered by Mr. Armstrong and his counsel until June 20, 1984, following a trial of the case against Mr. Armstrong. Attached to my previous Affidavit of October 5, 1987, as Exhibit "KDL 18," is a copy of the June 20, 1984 Memorandum of Intended Decision. That decision modified the preliminary injunction to the extent that the documents originally surrendered to the Clerk of the Court by Mr. Armstrong and his counsel became divided into two separate categories -- those documents introduced into evidence during the trial of the action, and those

-5-

documents which were not introduced into evidence and which remained in the possession of the Clerk of the Court.

8. The Memorandum of Intended Decision ordered that the documents which had not been introduced into trial remain under seal in the possession of the Clerk of the Court, effectively maintaining the terms of the preliminary injunction with respect to these documents. The Memorandum of Intended Decision also ordered that approximately 175 of the nearly 200 exhibits introduced during the trial from the documents held under seal were to be treated in the same fashion as other Superior Court trial exhibits, i.e., they were to be considered matters of public record and available for inspection by the public.

9. However, on June 25, 1984, and before any of the unsealed trial exhibits could be made available to the public, the Church and Mrs. Hubbard sought and were granted a stay of the trial court's order, thereby preventing the trial exhibits from becoming available for public inspection. A copy of that order staying the unsealing is attached to my previous Affidavit as Exhibit "KDL 19." Between the end of trial on June 8, 1984, and the issuance of the temporary stay on June 25, 1984, I caused a watch to be maintained over the area in the courthouse wherein the trial exhibits were stored to ensure that no one, other than trial court personnel, had access to said materials. Additionally, I later personally confirmed with Ms. Rosie Hart, the clerk for the Honorable Paul Breckenridge Jr., the trial judge for the Church's case

-6-

against Mr. Armstrong, that none of the trial exhibits were made available to anyone at any time prior to the issuance of the temporary stay order of June 25, 1984.

10. Thereafter, between June 25, 1984 and December 3, 1984, the Church and Mrs. Hubbard sought and obtained a series of orders which maintained the seal of the trial exhibits until December 19, 1984. Copies of the relevant orders sought and obtained are attached to my previous Affidavit as Exhibit "KDL 19." On December 19, 1984, and until approximately midday on December 20, 1984, the trial exhibits were made available for inspection by members of the public. I was present in court on both days, as were several hundred or more other Scientologists who were outraged that the personal and private papers of Mr. Hubbard were going to be made available for public inspection. I personally observed that, with the single exception of a reporter from the United Press International, no member of the public other than the Scientologists who were permitted to see the trial exhibits. I further observed that no member of the public, including the reporter or any of the Scientologists who did inspect the exhibits, obtained copies of any of the exhibits from the court. The court simply did not permit any of the exhibits to be copied.

11. On December 20, 1984, the Honorable Judge Lawrence Waddington issued a temporary restraining order in the case of {Roes 1 through 200 v. Superior Court of the State of}

-7-

{California for the County of Los Angeles}, Los Angeles Superior Court case number C 527556, an action taken to reseal the trial exhibits by individuals who were named or otherwise identified in said exhibits. Immediately upon the issuance of the said temporary restraining order, a copy of which is attached to my previous Affidavit as Exhibit "KDL 19," the public inspection of the trial exhibits was halted. Thereafter, no further public inspection of the trial exhibits was ever allowed by the court, and I have personally confirmed with the court personnel responsible for the caretaking of the exhibits that absolutely no inspection or copying of the trial exhibits was allowed. The final order, which maintained the seal on the trial exhibits until they were returned to the Church in December 1986, is also attached to my previous Affidavit in Exhibit "KDL 19." That order, dated January 26, 1985, was issued by the California Court of Appeal in the {Roes} case following the denial of the Roe plaintiffs' application for preliminary injunction.

12. In summary, as this Court can see from the above facts, two of the aforementioned court orders pertaining to the sealing of the confidential materials are especially relevant to the instant action involving Penguin Books Limited and Mr. Miller. The first is the preliminary injunction of September 24,1982, which is the applicable order for all documents surrendered by Mr. Armstrong and his counsel which were not then later introduced during the May and June 1984 trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong. The second

-8-

is the January 26, 1985 stay order issued by the California Court of Appeal in the {Roes} case, which is applicable to the documents introduced during the trial of the Church's action against Mr. Armstrong. Due to these two court orders, all of the documents remained under seal at all times relevant to this present litigation. No copies of any of said documents could have been obtained from the Los Angeles Superior Court. 13.

In my First Affidavit, at paragraphs 16 through 23, I referred to a number of passages in Mr. Miller's book which directly quote from the documents originally taken by Mr. Armstrong and which are now at issue in the instant litigation. As the Court will note in reviewing the passages raised herein, however, there is far more at issue than simply the direct quotes. In many instances, Mr. Miller has gone far beyond merely quoting from the documents and, instead, has based much of his writing on information taken from the documents. For example, although pages 29 through 39 of Mr. Miller's book contain a great many direct quotes from Mr. Hubbard's boyhood diaries, those same pages are also almost wholly based on the information in the said diaries even where not directly quoted.

14. I have reviewed the unsworn Affidavit of Jonathan Caven-Atack in which he makes various statements concerning the status of the documents at issue in this matter.

15. At paragraph 3 of Mr. Caven-Atack's Affidavit, I note that he claims to have obtained "copies of the majority of the

-9-

released exhibits from the Superior Court of the State of California." For the reasons set forth in more detail hereinbelow, I believe that Mr. Caven-Atack's statement is nothing more or less than a willful and knowing perjury to this Court.

16. In support of my statement, I respectfully request the Court to review paragraph 10 of Mr. Caven-Atack's Affidavit. In said paragraph, Mr. Caven-Atack describes three diaries authored by Mr. L. Ron Hubbard between the years 1927 and 1929. Mr. Caven-Atack explicitly states that the diaries were introduced during the trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong in 1984 as trial exhibits 62, 63 and 65. He further attaches copies of said diaries to his Affidavit as Exhibit JC-A 4.

17. As the Court will note for itself in reviewing Exhibit JC-A 4, none of the three diaries demonstrates the exhibit marking of the Los Angeles Superior Court. Instead, each diary demonstrates a number written by hand on the first page.

18. I was present during each day of the trial against Mr. Armstrong in May and June, 1984. I recognize the handwritten denotations of the numbers "62," "63" and "65" as having been placed on the diaries by Church counsel Robert Harris just before handing the diaries to the trial court and Mr. Armstrong's counsel as exhibits.

19. I have detailed for the Court hereinabove the

-10-

various orders issued by the courts in the United States which maintained these diaries under seal until they were returned by the court to the Church in December 1986. The Second Affidavit of Timothy Bowles, at paragraph 14, likewise states that no copies of any of the trial exhibits, which would specifically include the diaries, were ever available to any member of the public such as Mr. Caven-Atack, from the Los Angeles Superior Court.

20. Based on the above facts, I am certain that the {only} possible source for the diaries attached by Mr. Caven-Atack as Exhibit JC-A 4 is Mr. Armstrong and/or his counsel. Had Mr. Caven-Atack actually obtained said copies from the Los Angeles Superior Court, as he claims at paragraph 3, the said copies would demonstrate the exhibit marking of the Superior Court. I am also certain, as a matter of logical necessity flowing from the above facts, that Mr. Caven-Atack has willfully and knowingly perjured himself before this Court.

21. At paragraph 5 of Mr. Caven-Atack's Affidavit, he further avers that he did not at any time receive any sealed documents from Mr. Armstrong or counsel for Mr. Armstrong. However, as set forth hereinabove, the copies of the diaries attached as Exhibit JC-A 4 were given only to Mr. Armstrong and his counsel. The sole source for those copies is therefore obviously and only Mr. Armstrong or his counsel. Mr. Caven-Atack met with Mr. Armstrong in the United Kingdom at least in June 1984, if not also on other occasions. There is

-11-

now shown and produced to me marked as "KDL 28" a copy of pages 260 to 262 from the oral testimony of Gerald Armstrong of July 31, 1986, in which he states that he met with Mr. Caven-Atack in the London area on several occasions in or about June 1984. I note that Mr. Caven-Atack avoids any mention in his Affidavits of having met with Mr. Armstrong, and that he likewise does not deny having received any documents from Mr. Armstrong. Interestingly enough, Mr. Caven-Atack also mentions nowhere that he ever went to the Los Angeles Superior Court. In view of the facts already set forth hereinabove, Mr. Caven-Atack's statement is either an additional perjurious statement made to this Court or an attempt to avoid the truth through word games.

22. At paragraph 8 of the Affidavit of Mr. Caven-Atack, he states that the letter from Mr. Hubbard's mother to Mr. Hubbard of September 30, 1929 was introduced as an exhibit during the trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong. I note that Mr. Caven-Atack does not contest the statement made in my First Affidavit at paragraph 18, in which I stated that the letter has never been made available to the general public. My statement is true, as has been demonstrated to the Court through my summary of the orders maintaining the trial exhibits effectively under seal until their return to the Church in December 1986. I further note that Mr. Caven-Atack does not deny that he has a copy of said letter, and that he has failed to attach a copy of said letter to his Affidavit as an exhibit.

-12-

23. I have reviewed the statements made by Mr. Caven-Atack in paragraphs 7, 9 and 10 of his Affidavit, concerning Mr. Hubbard's Boy Scout Diary, Mr. Hubbard's letter to the Cape Cod Instrument Company, and a single one of the three boyhood diaries authored by Mr.Hubbard between 1927 and 1929. As a result of my review, I do agree that a few pages from Mr. Hubbard's Boy Scout Diary, the letter to the Cape Cod Instrument Company, and a portion of one of Mr. Hubbard's three diaries previously discussed hereinabove, were actually available to the public from the Church, and were mistakenly brought before the Court through a clerical error. However, in light of Mr. Caven-Atack's apparent disregard for the truth, as additionally evidenced, for example, by the fact that there was no showing of the Boy Scout diaries in Toronto in October 1986, I have reached this conclusion only after having verified for myself the truth of the matter.

24. At paragraph 10 of Mr. Caven-Atack's Affidavit, concerning three diaries authored by Mr. Hubbard between 1927 and 1929, Mr. Caven-Atack states that the three diaries were introduced during the trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong in May and June, 1984. I agree with Mr. Caven-Atack's assertion. Indeed, the Church has not stated any differently. However, I also respectfully refer the Court to the discussion hereinabove concerning the various court orders which maintained these documents under seal. Despite Mr. Caven-Atack's assertion, the documents were not publicly available from the Los Angeles Superior Court, and he could

-13-

not have obtained copies therefrom.

25. At paragraph 11 of Mr. Caven-Atack's Affidavit, he refers to a list of exhibits unsealed during the trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong, and concludes that the letter from Mr. Hubbard to his wife, Polly, was not introduced into said trial at any time. Although I know of no such list as that referred to by Mr. Caven-Atack, his conclusion is accurate. I note that neither Mr. Caven-Atack nor Mr. Miller have denied that the information in this letter arises from the documents maintained under seal from September 1982 until December 1986, and I further note that neither Mr. Miller nor Mr. Caven-Atack have attempted to explain how they came into possession of said letter.

26. I have reviewed the Affidavit of Russell Francis Miller, sworn to on October 3, 1987. In doing so, I have noted that Mr. Miller states at paragraph 10 that he obtained much of the information at issue herein from Mr. Caven-Atack. Mr. Miller also avers that he was informed by Mr. Caven-Atack that some of the documents had been used in connection with the litigation between the Church and Mr. Armstrong, but that he was informed by Mr. Caven-Atack that some of the documents, although not all of them, which were used in connection with the litigation had been unsealed. As I have set forth for this Court in the paragraphs immediately hereinabove, and in my First Affidavit, the documents were neither left unsealed nor were they ever available for Mr. Atack to publicly inspect or

-14-

copy from the Los Angeles Superior Court. Additionally, as I have set forth in my Third Affidavit, also sworn to on October 5, 1987, I verily believe that Mr. Caven-Atack has perjured himself to this Court, and that Mr. Miller's reliance upon him is therefore sadly misplaced.

27. At paragraph 17 of Mr. Miller's Affidavit, he indicates that the letter from Mr. Hubbard's mother to Mr. Hubbard was made available to him by Mr. Atack. This letter was introduced during the trial of the {Armstrong} case, and so remained under seal pursuant to the stay order of January 25, 1985 until December 1986, when it was returned to the Church.

28. At paragraph 18 of Mr. Miller's Affidavit, he states that he is uncertain that the July 21, 1938 letter from Mr. Hubbard to his wife, Polly, is the same as the letter which he has noted in his book as having been written in October. I have been.permitted to compare the relevant text of Mr. Miller's book to the letter of July 21, 1938, and I wish to clearly state to this Court that Mr. Hubbard's letter of July 21, 1938 is the source for the information in Mr. Miller's book. At paragraph 19 of Mr. Miller's Affidavit, he states that he obtained a copy of the said letter from a source whose identity he has promised not to reveal, and that he does not know whether or not the letter is one of the documents maintained under seal by the Los Angeles Superior Court. This letter was surrendered to the Clerk of the Court by Mr. Armstrong and his counsel in September 1982, and it remained

-15-

under seal pursuant to the preliminary injunction of September 24, 1982 until returned to the Church in December 1986. It is not surprising that Mr. Miller would not divulge his source since that individual is in violation of the court order of September 24, 1982.

29. At paragraph 22 of Mr. Miller's Affidavit, he indicates that his source for the information contained in his book concerning Mr. Hubbard's 1927 to 1929 diaries was Jon Atack. Said diaries were introduced during the May to June 1984 trial between the Church and Mr. Armstrong. As this Court has been informed hereinabove, the trial exhibits were maintained under seal through various stay orders, and particularly the stay order issued by the California Court of Appeal on January 26, 1985. At no time were copies of the said diaries provided to Mr. Atack or anyone else by the Los Angeles Superior Court.

30. I have reviewed and caused to be verified Mr. Miller's statements in paragraph 23 of his Affidavit. Mr. Miller's statement is highly suspect since he chose not to support said statement by attaching a copy of his request to the CIA. A copy of the document was introduced during the trial of the Church's case against Mr. Armstrong, and was maintained under seal pursuant to sealing orders described hereinabove, and particularly the stay order of January 26, 1985 issued by the California Court of Appeal.

31. Although not previously brought to this Court's

-16-

attention, and also based on information taken from documents held under seal pursuant to the preliminary injunction order of September 24, 1982, Mr. Miller's book includes three letters from Mr. Hubbard to Helen O'Brien in 1953. The first of these letters appears at page 213 of Mr. Miller's book, in the second complete paragraph, and concerns Mr. Hubbard's feelings about a former associate, Don Purcell. The letter is directly quoted, in part, by Mr. Miller. The second letter, which also contains direct quotations as well as information from the letter, appears at the last incomplete paragraph on page 213 and the first incomplete paragraph on page 214 of Mr. Miller's book. The third letter appears in the first complete paragraph on page 214 of Mr. Miller's book, and is again both directly quoted from as well as used as the basis for additional information imparted by Mr. Miller. All three of these letters were surrendered to the Clerk of the Court by Mr. Armstrong and his counsel in September 1982, and all remained under seal until they were returned to the Church in December 1986. Mr. Miller's inclusion of the information cited herein clearly shows additional breaches of confidence and violation of the orders issued by the California courts.

32. Based on the above information now furnished to this Court, I am certain that Mr. Miller has used information which could only have originated from Mr. Armstrong. I further believe that Mr. Miller recognized that his obtaining and use of that information was a perpetuation of the breach of confidence initiated by Mr. Armstrong, and that Mr.

-17-

Caven-Atack's claim to have obtained the documents from the Los Angeles Superior Court has been made with the knowledge that it is utterly false.

33. At paragraph 5 of his Affidavit sworn to on October 3, 1987, Mr. Miller describes what he terms was a "hostile reaction" from the Church when he informed it that he intended to write a book about Mr. Hubbard's life. Although his statements are irrelevant to the issues herein, and apparently included only to cast a bad light over the Church, I wish to inform this Court that the Church initially met with Mr. Miller and, in fact, agreed at one point to assist Mr. Miller in the research for his book. It was only after Mr. Miller's actions revealed his true intentions were to author a book that was biased and one-sided, contrary to his earlier undertaking that the book would truly be factual, that the Church refused to cooperate with him.

34. Mr. Miller's additional statements in paragraph 5, concerning the persons whom he was interviewing, also appear by their very lack of specificity to be designed to impugn the Church. The Court should be aware that such persons, the sources for Mr. Miller's book, are almost one for one former Scientologists who are now hostile to the Church and to Mr. Hubbard. Hana Eltringham Whitfield, for example, is quoted rather extensively by Mr. Miller throughout the latter portion of the book. Yet he fails to mention at any point that Mrs. Whitfield is attempting to extort millions of dollars from the

-18-

Church by filing a purported class action suit in the United States which has been thrown out of court three times, and in which Mrs. Whitfield and the other plaintiffs have been sanctioned by the court. There is now shown and produced to me marked as "KDL 29" a copy of the Court's order of September 24, 1987, dismissing the purported class action suit for the third time.

35. At paragraph 30 of his Affidavit, Mr. Miller attempts to raise the spectre that a granting of the injunction requested by the Church would adversely affect the serialisation of Mr. Miller's book by the Sunday Times. This is not the case. As I stated in paragraph 2 hereinabove, the Sunday Times is free to publish a serialisation of Mr. Miller's book as long as it does so without violating the rights of the Church. In order to ensure that the rights of all parties are made known and thereby preserved to each, the Church's solicitor has forwarded a letter to the Sunday Times, placing it on notice of the current undertaking by the Defendants herein. The letter additionally reminds the Sunday Times of its undertaking of January 14, 1970, in which it agreed not to publish any of the allegations now raised by Chapter 7 of Mr. Miller's book. There is now shown and produced to me marked as "KDL 30" a copy of the October 5, 1987 letter sent by Mrs. Hamida Jafferji, solicitor for the Church, to the Sunday Times. There is also now shown and produced to me marked "KDL 30A" a copy of the October 5, 1969 article entitled "The Odd Beginning of Ron Hubbard's Career,"

-19-

which article contains the statements prohibited by the aforementioned undertaking.

36. I have reviewed the unsworn first Affidavit of Julie A Scott-Bayfield, who describes at paragraph 2 an incident involving the copying of a xerox of Mr. Miller's book. Although the information imparted by Mrs. Scott-Bayfield is completely irrelevant to the issues in this case, I respectfully differ with her statement that the manuscript being copied by the Church representative is confidential to the Defendants. I have been informed that Penguin Books Limited have disseminated copies of the manuscript copied to persons in at least four separate countries -- the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and Germany -- and that a person affiliated with the publisher furnished a copy of the manuscript to an individual who then furnished the copy to representatives of the Church. This individual has requested and was promised that he will not be identified due to his fear that he will be harassed or will otherwise be subjected to unpleasant actions by Mr. Miller or Penguin Books Limited for his assistance to the Church. The copy of the manuscript being copied was obtained in a completely legitimate manner. The copies were made solely for use in the present legal proceedings and, as I have been informed by counsel for the Church, therefore are specifically excluded from copyright infringement under the Copyright Act of 1956.

37. At paragraph 3 of the Affidavit of Julie A Scott-Bayfield, she alleges that one of the two photographs

-20-

for which relief is sought by the Church is not actually owned by the Church. Mrs. Scott-Bayfield's statement is extended hearsay, as she is merely repeating information passed on to her by a Doreen Gillham, who, in turn, apparently obtained at least some of the information from a Larry Miller. However, leaving this aside, even if Mrs. Scott-Bayfield's explanation is accepted as true, the Church still has ownership of the photograph. The Church does not accept the claim that the photograph was taken by Mr. Miller, and actively contests that claim. Further, I have caused the records of the Church to be searched, and aver thereon that Mr. Miller was employed by the Church as a photographer. Even if the photograph was actually taken by Mr. Miller, it was taken by him pursuant to his employment as a photographer for the Church, and was and is owned by the Church. The negative is contained in the Church archives, and it is self-evident that Mr. Miller's copy of the photograph was made from another photograph rather than from the negative. Ms. Gillham's memory of events concerning the photograph is additionally suspect in that Julie Fisher was, at the time the photograph was taken, actually fourteen years of age and not ten or eleven as alleged by Ms. Gillham. Interestingly enough, Ms. Gillham herself was only seventeen at the time the photograph was taken. This photograph is registered in the United States Copyright Office to the Church of Scientology of California, with a registration number of VAu 116-627.

38. I have reviewed the Affidavit of Glen Keith Marks,

-21-

sworn to on October 3, 1987. I have also reviewed the Affidavit of Michael Roy Garside, sworn to on October 5, 1987. Based on the matters stated therein, I verily believe that Rex Features Limited was not furnished with a copy of the photograph used on the dust jacket for Mr. Miller's book. I further believe that, even if such were the case, the Church did not relinquish or waive its copyright in the photograph; certainly no representative of the Church who met with Rex Features Limited was authorized to furnish such a waiver. I have caused the records of the Church to be searched and, as a result, I verily believe and do aver that the photograph used on the dust jacket of Mr. Miller's book has always been maintained in the archives of the Church, and that it has never been published or disseminated by the Church. This photograph is registered in the United States Copyright Office to the Church of Scientology of California, with a registration number of VAu 116-426.
