7 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

9 | 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

10 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,

11 || proprietary or private information for which special protection from public disclosure

12 || and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.

13 || Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the

14 || following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does

15 || not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the

16 || protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited

17 || information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable

18 || legal principles.

19 B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

20 _ This action is likely to involve trade secrets, formulas, manufacturing methods

21 || and, other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or

22 || proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and from

23 || use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such

24 || confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things,

25 || confidential research, development, or commercial information, information

26 || otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise

27 || protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions,

28 || or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the

1 || prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to

2 || adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure

3 || that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation

4 || for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and

5 || serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this

6 || matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be designated as

7 || confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith

8 || belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is

9 || good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

10 C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER

11 SEAL

12 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this

13 || Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under

14 || seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the

15 || standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file □

16 || material under seal.

17 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial

18 || proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions,

19 |} good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and

20 || County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors

21 || Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics, Inc.,

22 || 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require good

23 || cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons with

24 || proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with respect to

25 || Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation

26 || of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—without the

27 || submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material sought

28

3 .

1 || to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—

2 || constitute good cause.

3 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then

4 || compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the relief

5 || sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. See

6 || Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n., 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each item

7 || or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under seal

8 || in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking protection must

9 || articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal justification, for

10 || the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting the application to

11 || file documents under seal must be provided by declaration.

12 - Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in

13 || its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted. If

14 || documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting only

15 || the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document, shall

16 || be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their entirety

17 || should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

18

1 2.14 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is

2 || designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.”

3 2.15 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material

4 || from a Producing Party.

6 || 3. SCOPE

7 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only

g || Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted

9 || from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of

10 || Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties

11 || or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material.

12 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the trial

13 || judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial.

14 □

15 || 4. DURATION

16 Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as

17. || CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced

18 || as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all

19 || members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by

20 || specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance

21 || of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” showing

22 || for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” standard

23 || when merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the terms of

24 || this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial.

25

26 || 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

27 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.

28 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection

1 || under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that

2 || qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for

3 || protection only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written

4 || communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items

5 || or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably

6 || within the ambit of this Order.

7 Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations

8 || that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper

9 || purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose

10 || unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party

11 || to sanctions.

12 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it

13 || designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must

14 || promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.

15 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in

16 || this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise

17 || stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection

18 || under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or

19 |} produced.

20 Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

21 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic

22 || documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial

23 || proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend

24 || “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that

25 || contains protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for

26 || protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s)

27 || (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

28

1 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection

2 || need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated

3 || which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before

4 || the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed

5 || “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants

6 || copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or

7 || portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the

8 || specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend”

9 || to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a

10 || page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the

11 || protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

12 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies

13. || the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition

14 || all protected testimony.

15 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for

16 || any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the

17 || exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend

18 || “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants

19 || protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected

20 || portion(s).

21 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent

22 || failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the

23 || Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon

24 || timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts

25 || to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

26

27

28

1 |} 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

2 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a

3 || designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s

4 |) Scheduling Order.

5 6.2 Meetand Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute

6 || resolution process under Local Rule 37-1 et seq.

7 6.3 Joint Stipulation. Any challenge submitted to the Court shall be via a

8 || joint stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 37-2.

9 6.4 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on

10 || the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose

11 || (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may

12 || expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived

13. || or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the

14 || material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing

15 || Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge.

16

17 || 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

18 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is

19 || disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this

20 || Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such

21 || Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the

22 || conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving

23 || Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

24 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a

25 || location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons

26 || authorized under this Order.

27 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless

28 || otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a

1 || Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL”

2 || only to:

3 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as well

4 |) as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary

5 || to disclose the information for this Action;

6 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the

7 || Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action;

8 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom

9 || disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the

10 || “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

11 (d) the court and its personnel;

12 (e) court reporters and their staff;

13 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional

14 || Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have

15 || signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

16 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a

17 || custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;

18 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the

19 || Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party

20 || requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1 hereto; and (2) they will

21 || not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the

22 || “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed

23 || by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition

24 || testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately

25 || bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted

26 || under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

27 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,

28 || mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions.

10

1 || 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN

2 OTHER LITIGATION

3 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation

4 || that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as

5 || “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

6 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall

7 || include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

8 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order

9 || to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena

10 || or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of

11 || this Stipulated Protective Order; and

12 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued

13 || by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

14 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with

15. |] the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action

16 || as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena

17 || or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The

18 || Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court

19 |] of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed as

20 || authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful

21 || directive from another court.

22

23 A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE

24 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

25 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-

26 || Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information

27 || produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies

28

11

1 || and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as

2 || prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

3 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to

4 || produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is

5 || subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s

6 || confidential information, then the Party shall:

7 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party

8 || that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement

9 || with a Non-Party;

10 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated

11 || Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably

12 || specific description of the information requested; and

13 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-

14 || Party, if requested.

15 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14

16 || days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may

17 || produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request.

18 || Ifthe Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce

19 || any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality

20 || agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court

21 || order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking

22 || protection in this court of its Protected Material.

23

24 || 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

25 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed

26 || Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this

27 || Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in

28 || writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts

12

1 || to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or

2 || persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,

3 || and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and

4 || Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

6 || 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

7 PROTECTED MATERIAL

8 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain

9 || inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,

10 || the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil

11 || Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure

12 || may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior

13. || privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the

14 || parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or

15 || information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the

16 || parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to

17 || the court.

18

19 || 12. MISCELLANEOUS

20 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any

21 || person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.

22 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this

23 || Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to

24 || disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this

25 || Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any

26 || ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

27 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any

28 || Protected Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5. Protected Material may

13

1 || only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific

2 || Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is

3 || denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public

4 || record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

6 || 13. FINAL DISPOSITION

7 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60

8 || days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return

9 || all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this

10 || subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

11 |] summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected

12 || Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party

13 |) must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person

14 || or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by

15 || category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed

16 || and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts,

17 || compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the

18 |} Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an

19 || archival copy ofall pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts,

20 || legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports,

21 |} attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials

22 |} contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute

23 |} Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4

24 || (DURATION).

25

26 || 14. VIOLATION

27 Any violation of this Order may be punished by appropriate measures

28 || including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary sanctions.
