IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

7 FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 8 Case No. 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD 9 POGI BEAUTY LLC, 10 Plaintiff, STIPULATED PROTECTIVE

ORDER1

11 v.

12 UOMA BEAUTY INC.,

13 Defendant.

14

15 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 16 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 17 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public 18 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be 19 warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter 20 the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order 21 does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and 22 that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the 23 limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the 24 applicable legal principles. 25

26

27 1 This Stipulated Protective Order is substantially based on the model protective 28 order provided under Magistrate Judge Patricia Donahue’s Procedures. Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 2 of 16 Page ID #:130

1 B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 2 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and 3 other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or 4 proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and from 5 use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such 6 confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other 7 things, confidential business or financial information, information regarding 8 confidential business practices, or other confidential research, development, or 9 commercial information (including information implicating privacy rights of third 10 parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be 11 privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, 12 court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of 13 information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of 14 discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep 15 confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of 16 such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling 17 at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, the parties respectfully 18 submit that a protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the 19 intent of the parties that information will not be designated as confidential for 20 tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that 21 it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause 22 why it should not be part of the public record of this case. 23

C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL

24 25 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this 26 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information 27 under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and 28 -2- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 3 of 16 Page ID #:131

1 the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to 2 file material under seal. 3 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial 4 proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions, 5 good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and 6 County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors 7 Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Elecs., Inc., 8 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require good 9 cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons, with 10 proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with respect to 11 Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation 12 of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—without the 13 submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material 14 sought to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise 15 protectable—constitute good cause. 16 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then 17 compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the 18 relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. 19 See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each 20 item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under 21 seal in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking protection 22 must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal 23 justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting 24 the application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration. 25 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in 26 its entirety will not be filed under seal in its entirety if the confidential portions can 27 be redacted. If documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public 28 -3- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 4 of 16 Page ID #:132

1 viewing, omitting only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions 2 of the document, shall be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under 3 seal in their entirety should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible. 4 2. DEFINITIONS 5 2.1 Action: the above-captioned action. 6 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges 7 the designation of information or items under this Order. 8 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of 9 how it is generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for 10 protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), and as specified above in the 11 Good Cause Statement. 12 2.4 Counsel: Outside Counsel of Record and In-House Counsel (as well as 13 their support staff). 14 2.5 Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or 15 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 16 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 17 2.6 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information (including, 18 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), regardless of the 19 medium or manner in which they are stored or maintained, that are produced or 20 generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter. 21 2.7 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 22 pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as 23 an expert witness or consultant in this Action. 24 2.8 In-House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a party to this 25 Action. In-House Counsel do not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other 26 outside counsel. 27 2.9 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or 28 -4- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 5 of 16 Page ID #:133

1 other legal entity not named as a Party to this action. 2 2.10 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party 3 to this Action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this Action and have 4 appeared in this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm which 5 has appeared on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 6 2.11 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 7 employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their 8 support staffs). 9 2.12 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or 10 Discovery Material in this Action. 11 2.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support 12 services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 13 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) 14 and their employees and subcontractors. 15 2.14 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is 16 designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” 17 2.15 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material 18 from a Producing Party. 19 3. SCOPE 20 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only 21 Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or 22 extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or 23 compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or 24 presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 25 26 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the 27 trial judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 28

1 4. DURATION 2 Final disposition of the action is defined as the conclusion of any appellate 3 proceedings, or, if no appeal is taken, when the time for filing of an appeal has run. 4 Except as set forth below, the terms of this Order apply through final disposition of 5 the action. 6 Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as 7 CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this Order used or introduced as an 8 exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all members of 9 the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by specific 10 factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of the 11 trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” showing for 12 sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” standard when 13 merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, for such materials, 14 the terms of this Order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial. 15 16 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 17 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 18 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under 19 this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that 20 qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 21 protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 22 communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items, 23 or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably 24 within the ambit of this Order. 25 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 26 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 27 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose 28 -6- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 7 of 16 Page ID #:135

1 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating 2 Party to sanctions. 3 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 4 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 5 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 6 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 7 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of Section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise 8 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection 9 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or 10 produced. 11 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 12 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 13 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 14 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 15 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that 16 contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page 17 qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 18 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 19 20 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 21 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 22 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and 23 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be 24 deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the 25 documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which 26 documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before 27 producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the 28 “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a -7- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 8 of 16 Page ID #:136

1 portion or portions of the material on a page qualify for protection, the Producing 2 Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate 3 markings in the margins). 4 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify 5 the Disclosure or Discovery Material that is Protected Material on the record, before 6 the close of the deposition. 7 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for 8 any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the 9 exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 10 “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants 11 protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 12 portion(s). 13 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 14 failure to designate qualified information or items as Protected Material does not, 15 standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this 16 Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party 17 must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with 18 the provisions of this Order. 19 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 20 21 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 22 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s 23 Scheduling Order. 24 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 25 resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. 26 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on 27 the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose 28 (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may -8- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 9 of 16 Page ID #:137

1 expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived 2 or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the 3 material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing 4 Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 5 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 6 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 7 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 8 Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such 9 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 10 conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a 11 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13 below. 12 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 13 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 14 authorized under this Order. 15 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 16 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 17 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 18 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 19 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as well 20 as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary 21 to disclose the information for this Action; 22 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including In-House Counsel) of 23 the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 24 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 25 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 26 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 27 (d) the court and its personnel; 28 -9- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 10 of 16 Page ID #:138

1 (e) court reporters and their staff; 2 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional 3 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have 4 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 5 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a 6 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 7 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the 8 Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided they sign the 9 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise 10 agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the Court. Pages of transcribed 11 deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may 12 be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except 13 as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and 14 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, 15 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 16 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED 17

IN OTHER LITIGATION

18 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 19 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 20 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 21 22 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall 23 include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 24 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order 25 to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena 26 or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of 27 this Stipulated Protective Order; and 28 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued -10- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 11 of 16 Page ID #:139

1 by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. 2 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served 3 with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this 4 action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the 5 subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s 6 permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking 7 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions 8 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action 9 to disobey a lawful directive from another court. 10 9. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT 11

TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

12 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a 13 Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information 14 produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the 15 remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be 16 construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 17 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to 18 produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is 19 subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s 20 confidential information, then the Party shall: 21 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 22 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement 23 with a Non-Party; 24 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 25 Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 26 specific description of the information requested; and 27 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the 28 -11- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 12 of 16 Page ID #:140

1 Non-Party, if requested. 2 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 3 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party 4 may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery 5 request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall 6 not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the 7 confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. 8 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense 9 of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material. 10 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 11 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 12 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this 13 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in 14 writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts 15 to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or 16 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, 17 and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and 18 Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 19 20 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 21 PROTECTED MATERIAL 22 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 23 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, 24 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil 25 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure 26 may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior 27 privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the 28 -12- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 13 of 16 Page ID #:141

1 parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or 2 information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the 3 parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted 4 to the Court. 5 12. MISCELLANEOUS 6 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any 7 person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 8 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 9 Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to 10 disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this 11 Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any 12 ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order. 13 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 14 Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may 15 only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the 16 specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material 17 under seal is denied by the Court, then the Receiving Party may file the information 18 in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the Court. 19 20 13. FINAL DISPOSITION 21 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in Section 4, within 60 22 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return 23 all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in 24 this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, 25 summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected 26 Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving 27 Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same 28 person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies -13- Case 2:21-cv-08217-FMO-PD Document 26 Filed 04/05/22 Page 14 of 16 Page ID #:142

1 (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or 2 destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, 3 abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any 4 of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to 5 retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing 6 transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert 7 reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such 8 materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or 9 constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in 10 Section 4. 11 14. Any violation of this Order may be punished by any and all appropriate 12 measures including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary 13 sanctions. 14
