13 vs.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE

14 UNUM LIFE INSURANCE ORDER

COMPANY OF AMERICA,

15 Defendant. 16

17 Based on the parties’ Stipulation and for good cause shown, the Court finds and 18 orders as follows. 19 1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 20 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 21 proprietary or private information for which special protection from public disclosure 22 and from use for any purpose other than pursuing this litigation may be warranted. 23 Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the 24 following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does 25 not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that 26 the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited 27 information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable 28 legal principles.

1 2. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 2 This action is likely to involve confidential corporate information and other 3 commercial, financial and/or proprietary information for which special protection 4 from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this 5 action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and information 6 consist of, among other things, confidential business or financial information, 7 information or communications regarding confidential business practices, or other 8 confidential commercial information (including information implicating privacy 9 rights of third parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or 10 which may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal 11 statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the 12 flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality 13 of discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to 14 keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses 15 of such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling 16 at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such 17 information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that information 18 will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so 19 designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, 20 non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public 21 record of this case. 22 3. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF UNDER SEAL FILING PROCEDURE 23 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 14.3, below, that this 24 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information 25 under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and 26 the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file 27 material under seal. There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access 28 to judicial proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive 1

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-05905-DSF-JDE Document 28 Filed 09/02/22 Page 3 of 15 Page ID #:125

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

Case 2:21-cv-05905-DSF-JDE Document 28 Filed 09/02/22 Page 5 of 15 Page ID #:127

1 this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm that has appeared 2 on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 3 4.11 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 4 employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their 5 support staffs). 6 4.12 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or 7 Discovery Material in this Action. 8 4.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support 9 services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 10 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) 11 and their employees and subcontractors. 12 4.14 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is 13 designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” 14 4.15 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery 15 Material from a Producing Party. 16 5. SCOPE 17 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only 18 Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted 19 from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of 20 Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties 21 or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 22 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the 23 trial judge and other applicable authorities. This Order does not govern the use of 24 Protected Material at trial. 25 6.

1 members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by 2 specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance 3 of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” 4 showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” 5 standard when merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the 6 terms of this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial. 7 7. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 8 7.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 9 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this 10 Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies 11 under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection 12 only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written communications that 13 qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items or communications 14 for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of 15 this Order. 16 Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 17 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 18 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose 19 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party 20 to sanctions. 21 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 22 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 23 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 24 7.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 25 this Order, or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure of Discovery Material 26 that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the 27 material is disclosed or produced. 28 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 5

Case 2:21-cv-05905-DSF-JDE Document 28 Filed 09/02/22 Page 7 of 15 Page ID #:129

1 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 2 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 3 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 4 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that 5 contains protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for 6 protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) 7 (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 8 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 9 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 10 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before 11 the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed 12 “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants 13 copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or 14 portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the 15 specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” 16 to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a 17 page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the 18 protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 19 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party 20 identifies the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the 21 deposition all protected testimony. 22 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and 23 for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on 24 the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 25 “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants 26 protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 27 portion(s). 28 6

1 7.3 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. 4 Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable 5 efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this 6 Order. 7 8. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 8 8.1. Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 9 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s 10 Scheduling Order. 11 8.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 12 resolution process under Local Rule 37-1 et seq. 13 8.3 Joint Stipulation. Any challenge submitted to the Court shall be via a joint 14 stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 37-2. 15 8.4 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the 16 Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose 17 (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may 18 expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived 19 or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the 20 material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing 21 Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 22 9. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 23 9.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 24 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 25 Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such 26 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 27 conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving 28 Party must comply with the provisions of section 15 below (FINAL DISPOSITION). 7

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 2 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 3 authorized under this Order. 4 9.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 5 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 6 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 7 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 8 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as 9 well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably 10 necessary to disclose the information for this Action; 11 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of 12 the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 13 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 14 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 15 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 16 (d) the court and its personnel; 17 (e) court reporters and their staff; 18 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional 19 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have 20 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 21 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a 22 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 23 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in 24 the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing 25 party requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2) they 26 will not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the 27 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise 28 agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court.

1 deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be 2 separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as 3 permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and 4 (i) any mediators or settlement officers and their supporting personnel, 5 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 6 10. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED 7 PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION 8 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 9 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 10 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 11 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification 12 shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 13 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order 14 to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena 15 or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of 16 this Stipulated Protective Order; and 17 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be 18 pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the 19 Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the subpoena 20 or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as 21 “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or 22 order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The 23 Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court 24 of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed as 25 authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful 26 directive from another court. 27 / / / 28 / / / 9

1 11. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 2 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 3 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a 4 Non-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 9 produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is 10 subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s 11 confidential information, then the Party shall: 12 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 13 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement 14 with a Non-Party; 15 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 16 Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 17 specific description of the information requested; and 18 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non- 19 Party, if requested. 20 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 21 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party 22 may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery 23 request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall 24 not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the 25 confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. 26 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense 27 of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material. 28 / / / 10

1 12. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 2 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 3 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this 4 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in 5 writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts 6 to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or 7 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, 8 and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment an 9 Agreement to Be Bound” attached hereto as Exhibit A. 10 13. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 11 PROTECTED MATERIAL 12 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 13 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, 14 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil\ 15 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure 16 may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior 17 privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the 18 parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or 19 information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the 20 parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted 21 to the court. 22 14. MISCELLANEOUS 23 14.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any 24 person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 25 14.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 26 Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object 27 to disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in 28 11

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-05905-DSF-JDE Document 28 Filed 09/02/22 Page 13 of 15 Page ID #:135

1 this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any 2 ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order. 3 14.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 4 Protected Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5. Protected Material may 5 only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific 6 Protected Material. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is denied 7 by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public record 8 unless otherwise instructed by the court. 9 15. FINAL DISPOSITION 10 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 6, within 60 11 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return 12 all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this 13 subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, 14 summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected 15 Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party 16 must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person 17 or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60-day deadline that (1) identifies (by 18 category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed 19 and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, 20 compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the 21 Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an 22 archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing 23 transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert 24 reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such 25 materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or 26 constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in 27 Section 6 (DURATION). 28 / / / 12
