MASTER

Defendants.
Documents Bates Stamped NAPOI161O-13427
Opinion: Defendants argue that these documents consists of all Salesforce reports ever generated
by any user of Salesforce at NAPLIA and that these documents are properly marked Attorneys’
Eyes Only because these documents contain Salesforce.com data, including policy information,
premiums, expiration dates, addresses and contact information, communications and extensive
other customer data that would be extremely damaging if obtained by a competitor. Plaintiff
maintains that it would agree to designate these documents confidential to the extent they contain
client data and are identified as such by Defendants but object to the need for an Attorneys’ Eyes
Only designation. Plaintiff further argues that as NAPLIA is insolvent and no longer in business,
there can be no significant harm to the disclosnre of these documents.
