Motorola, Inc. et al., No. 10-23580 (S.D. Fla.) Dear Ms. Ho: I write on behalf of non-party Google Inc. (“Google”) concerning Apple’s purported disclosures of information for Steven Feiner and Richard Goodin under Paragraph 11 of the protective order governing confidentiality in this action, entered by the Court on March 23, 2011, and Paragraph 29 of the Court’s order of December 20, 2011. Apple purported to complete its disclosures for Mr. Goodin on Friday, December 23, 2011, and for Mr. Feiner on Saturday, December 31, 2011. Steven Feiner. There appears to be a misunderstanding regarding Mr. Feiner. Contrary to your email of December 20, Apple did not disclose Mr. Feiner to Google in the 750 or N.D. Illinois actions, and he did not review Google’s highly confidential source code in those actions. Accordingly, we do not agree with Apple’s suggestion that Google expedite its review process for Mr. Feiner on the grounds that Google has previously reviewed him in those other actions. In any event, Apple’s disclosures are incomplete. On December 22, 2011, you provided a copy of Mr. Feiner’s c.v. dated February 22, 2011, and a document listing Mr. Feiner’s consulting quinn emanuel urquhart & sullivan, llp LOS ANGELES | 865 South Figueroa Street, 10th Floor, Los Angeles, California 90017-2543 | TEL (213) 443-3000 FAX (213) 443-3100 NEW YORK | 51 Madison Avenue, 22nd Floor, New York, New York 10010-1601 | TEL (212) 849-7000 FAX (212) 849-7100 SILICON VALLEY | 555 Twin Dolphin Drive, 5th Floor, Redwood Shores, California 94065-2139 | TEL (650) 801-5000 FAX (650) 801-5100 CHICAGO | 500 W.

Google cannot evaluate Apple’s disclosures for Mr. Feiner under Paragraph 11(c) of the protective order, which gives us ten court days to object in writing to the disclosure of Protected Material to the particular expert or consultant, until Apple completes its disclosure under Paragraph 11(b). Please complete Apple’s disclosure for Mr. Feiner as soon as possible. Richard Goodin. Apple’s disclosures for Mr. Goodin are also incomplete. On December 22, you provided a copy of Mr. Goodin’s c.v. dated July 14, 2011, and a letter from your colleague, Ms. Rosenthal, to Mr. Warren dated August 23, 2011, and stated as follows: Mr. Goodin has likewise confirmed that the list of consulting arrangements disclosed in the August 23 letter from my colleague Danielle Rosenthal to Matt Warren (also attached) is current with the exception of an additional consulting project for Apple. Again, your email confirms that Apple’s disclosures for Mr. Goodin are incomplete under Paragraph 11(b), because Apple has failed to provide a complete “description of [Mr. Goodin’s] testifying or consulting engagements within the past four (4) years.” While you referred to Mr. Goodin’s “additional consulting project for Apple,” you provided no description of that project. Google cannot evaluate Apple’s disclosures for Mr. Goodin under Paragraph 11(c) of the protective order until Apple completes its disclosure under Paragraph 11(b). Please complete Apple’s disclosure for Mr. Goodin as soon as possible. Agreements to Be Bound By Protective Order. Please provide the signed Acknowledgement and Agreement To Be Bound by Protective Order for Messrs. Feiner, Goodin, Haeberli, and Overby. Google’s Source Code. Google will produce its highly confidential source code to Apple starting Tuesday, January 10, 2012, subject of course to the protective order entered in this action, including Apple’s compliance with the provisions I have already noted, and resolution of any objections by Google. As stated in Mr. Warren’s letter to you of November 23, you confirmed that Apple would seek in this action only production of the same source code Google has already produced in response to a separate subpoena in Certain Mobile Devices and Related Software, Inv. No. 337-TA-750 (U.S.I.T.C.), and we have prepared that source code for production.
