SAP AG, et al. (the "Action"), 07-CV1658, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, and shall be made part of the Protective Order and Protective Order Amendment.

In addition, "SAP Coverage Counsel" shall refer to SAP's retained outside counsel who have been retained to provide counsel to SAP as to SAP Insurers and who also receive Discovery Materials designated as "Confidential Information" or "Highly Confidential Information ­ Attorneys' Eyes Only" under the Protective Order ("Designated Material") under this SAP Coverage Counsel Addendum to the Protective Order and Protective Order Amendment. SAP Coverage counsel shall also include members of the outside counsel firm, associate attorneys, contract attorneys, paralegals, secretarial staff, clerical and other regular employees. In addition, "Software and Support Materials" means, without limitation, all program updates, software updates, bug fixes, patches, custom solutions, and instructional materials, created or owned by Oracle, or derived from, copied from, or based on any such materials, including by SAP AG, SAP America, or SAP TN, across the entire family of Oracle products (including Oracle Database products, PeopleSoft products, JDE Products, and Siebel products).
