warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the

standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file
10
material under seal.

19
trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the
20

28
dismissal of all claims and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
5
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
6
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this
7
Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies
8
under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection
9
only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that
10
qualify – so that other portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for
11
which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this
12
Order.
13
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that
14
are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose
15
(e.g., to unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose
16
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to
17
sanctions.
18
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
19
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
20
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
21
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this
22
Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated
23
or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this
24
Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.
25
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
26
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but
27
excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the
28
Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected

1
material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection,
2
the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making
3
appropriate markings in the margins).
4
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for
5
inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has
6
indicated which material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
7
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed
8
“CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants
9
copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or
10
portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the
11
specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to
12
each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material
13
on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the
14
protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
15
(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that
16
the Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition,
17
hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony.
18
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any
19
other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
20
exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is stored
21
the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or
22
item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall
23
identify the protected portion(s).

5.3
1
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
2
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the
3
Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon
4
timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to
5
assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.
6
6.
7
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
8
designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating
9
Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial
10
unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the
11
litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by
12
electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed.
13
6.2
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
14
resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and
15
describing the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge
16
has been made, the written notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is
17
being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The
18
parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process
19
by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not
20
sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging
21
Party must explain the basis for its belief that the confidentiality designation was not
22
proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated
23
material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, to
24
explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the
25
next stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer
26
process first or establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the
27
meet and confer process in a timely manner.

6.3
1
Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without
the parties shall file a joint discovery letter pursuant to
2
court intervention, the Designating Partyof Judge and serve a motion to retain
the standing order shall file Ryu
3
confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if
4
applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the
5
parties agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute,
6
whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent
7
declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer
8
requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to
9
make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if
10
applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged
11
designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a
12
confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a
13
challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any
14
motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a competent
15
declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer
16
requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the
17
18
Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g.,
19
to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose
20
the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the
21
confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to retain confidentiality as described
22
above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level of protection
23
to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the
24
challenge.

26
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
27
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case
28
only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected

1
Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions
2
described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party
3
must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).
4
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
5
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
6
authorized under this Order.
7
7.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise
8
ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party
9
may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
10
(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action, as well as
11
employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably
12
necessary to disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed the
13
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit
14
A;
15
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the
16
Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation

(Exhibit A);
19
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure
20
is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
22
(d) the court and its personnel;
23
(e) court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants, mock
24
jurors, and Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for
25
this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN
OTHER LITIGATION
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that
11
compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as
12
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
13
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
14
include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
15
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to
16
issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the
17
subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall
18
include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
19
(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by
20
the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
21
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the
22
subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this
23
action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the
24
subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
25
permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
26
protection in that court of its confidential material – and nothing in these
27
provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party
28
in this action to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN
2
THIS LITIGATION
3
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-
4
Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
5
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
6
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
7
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
8
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce
9
a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject
10
to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential
11
information, then the Party shall:
12
(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that some
13
or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a
14
Non-Party;
15
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective Order
16
in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific
17
description of the information requested; and
18
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party.
19
(c) If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court within
20
14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving
21
Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the
22
discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving
23
Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject
24
to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the
25
court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden
26
and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
PROTECTED MATERIAL
9
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
10
11
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the
12
obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil
13
Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may
14
be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior
15
privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the
16
parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or
17
information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the
18
parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to
19
the court.

MISCELLANEOUS
12.1
Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any
person to seek its modification by the court in the future.
12.2
Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
24
Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
25
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
26
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground
27
to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party
2
may not file in the public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks
3
to file under seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5.
4
Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the
5
sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a
6
sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the Protected Material at
7
issue is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection
8
under the law. If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal
9
pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party
10
may file the information in the public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless
11
otherwise instructed by the court.

FINAL DISPOSITION
Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4,
14
each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or
15
destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all
16
copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or
17
capturing any of the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or
18
destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party
19
(and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline
20
that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was
21
returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any
22
copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing
23
any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to
24
retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing
25
transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert
26
reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such
27
materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute
28
Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4
