11 Baskin-Robbins Franchising LLC, et al., Case No. 8:19-cv-02232-JVS-JDE 12 Plaintiffs, ORDER GRANTING 13 vs. STIPULATED PROTECTIVE 14 ORDER MYP Corporation, et al., 15 16 Defendants.

17 Related Third-Party Claims. 18 Pursuant to the parties’ Stipulation (Dkt. 60) and for good cause shown 19 therein, the Court finds and orders as follows: 20 1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 21 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 22 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public 23 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may 24 be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to 25 enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this 26 Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to 27 discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends 1 only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment 2 under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth 3 below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file 4 confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures 5 that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks 6 permission from the Court to file material under seal. 7 2. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 8 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and 9 other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or 10 proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and 11 from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such 12 confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other 13 things, confidential business or financial information, information regarding 14 confidential business practices, or other confidential research, development, or 15 commercial information (including information implicating privacy rights of third 16 parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may 17 be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, 18 court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of 19 information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of 20 discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to 21 keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses 22 of such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their 23 handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order 24 for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that 25 information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that 26 nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in 27 a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be 1 3. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF UNDER SEAL FILING PROCEDURE 2 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 14.3, below, that this 3 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information 4 under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed 5 and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court 6 to file material under seal. There is a strong presumption that the public has a right 7 of access to judicial proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non- 8 dispositive motions, good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See 9 Kamakana v. City and County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), 10 Phillips v. Gen. Motors Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar- 11 Welbon v. Sony Electrics, Inc., 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even 12 stipulated protective orders require good cause showing), and a specific showing of 13 good cause or compelling reasons with proper evidentiary support and legal 14 justification, must be made with respect to Protected Material that a party seeks to 15 file under seal. The parties’ mere designation of Disclosure or Discovery Material 16 as CONFIDENTIAL does not— without the submission of competent evidence by 17 declaration, establishing that the material sought to be filed under seal qualifies as 18 confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—constitute good cause. 19 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, 20 then compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and 21 the relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be 22 protected. See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n., 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 23 2010). For each item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed 24 or introduced under seal, the party seeking protection must articulate compelling 25 reasons, supported by specific facts and legal justification, for the requested sealing 26 order. Again, competent evidence supporting the application to file documents 27 under seal must be provided by declaration. 1 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable 2 in its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be 3 redacted. If documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, 4 omitting only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the 5 document, shall be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in 6 their entirety should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible. 7 4. DEFINITIONS 8 4.1.

DURATION 11 Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations 12 imposed by this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees 13 otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs.

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 20 7.1. Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 21 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under 22 this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that 23 qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 24 protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 25 communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, 26 items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 27 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. 1 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 2 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 3 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to 4 impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the 5 Designating Party to sanctions. 6 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 7 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 8 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 9 7.2. Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 10 this Order (see, e.g., Section B(2)(b) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, 11 Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Order 12 must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced. 13 Designation in conformity with this Order requires the following: 14 (a) For information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 15 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 16 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the applicable legend 17 (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES 18 ONLY”), to each page that contains protected material. If only a portion or 19 portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also 20 must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate 21 markings in the margins). 22 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 23 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 24 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and 25 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be 26 deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY.” After the 27 inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the 1 protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the 2 Producing Party must affix the legend (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 3 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY”) to each page that contains 4 Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies 5 for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 6 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 7 (b) For testimony given in depositions, that the Designating Party identify 8 the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the 9 deposition all protected testimony. 10 (c) For information produced in form other than document and for any 11 other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the 12 exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 13 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES 14 ONLY.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants protection, the 15 Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s). 16 7.3. Inadvertent Failure to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 17 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive 18 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such 19 material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make 20 reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the 21 provisions of this Order. 22 8. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 23 8.1. Timing of Challenges. Any party or Non-Party may challenge a 24 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s 25 Scheduling Order. 26 8.2. Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 27 resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. 1 8.3. Joint Stipulation. Any challenge submitted to the Court shall be via a 2 joint stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 37-2. 3 8.4. The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be 4 on the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper 5 purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other 6 parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating 7 Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall 8 continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is 9 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the 10 challenge. 11 9. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 12 9.1. Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 13 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 14 Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such 15 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under 16 the conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a 17 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 15 below (FINAL 18 DISPOSITION). 19 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 20 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 21 authorized under this Order. 22 9.2. Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 23 otherwise ordered by the Court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 24 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 25 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 26 (a) The Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as 27 well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably 1 (b) The officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of 2 the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 3 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 4 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 5 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 6 (d) The Court and its personnel; 7 (e) Court reporters and their staff; 8 (f) Professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional 9 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or this Action and who have 10 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to be Bound” attached as Exhibit A 11 hereto; 12 (g) The author or recipient of a document containing the information or a 13 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 14 (h) During their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the 15 Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing 16 party requests that the witness sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be 17 Bound;” and (2) they will not be permitted to keep any confidential information 18 unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound,” unless 19 otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the Court. Pages of 20 transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected 21 Material may be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed 22 to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and 23 (i) Any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, 24 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 25 9.3 Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES 26 ONLY” Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court or permitted 27 in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose any 1 EYES ONLY” only to: 2 (a) The receiving party’s outside counsel of record in this action and 3 employees of outside counsel of record to whom it is reasonably necessary to 4 disclose the information; 5 (b) The Court and its personnel; 6 (c) Outside court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial 7 consultants, and professional vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary, 8 and who have signed the Agreement to Be Bound (Exhibit A); and 9 (d) The author or recipient of a document containing the material, or a 10 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information. 11 9.4 Procedures for Approving or Objecting to Disclosure of HIGHLY 12 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY or Material to In-House Counsel 13 or Experts. Unless agreed to in writing by the designator: 14 9.4.1 A party seeking to disclose to in-house counsel any material 15 designated HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY must first 16 make a written request to the designator providing the full name of the in-house 17 counsel, the city and state of such counsel’s residence, and such counsel’s current 18 and reasonably foreseeable future primary job duties and responsibilities in 19 sufficient detail to determine present or potential involvement in any competitive 20 decision-making. 21 9.4.2 A party seeking to disclose to an expert retained by outside counsel of 22 record any information or item that has been designated HIGHLY 23 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY must first make a written request 24 to the designator that (1) identifies the general categories of HIGHLY 25 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY information that the receiving 26 party seeks permission to disclose to the expert, (2) sets forth the full name of the 27 expert and the city and state of his or her primary residence, (3) attaches a copy of 1 identifies each person or entity from whom the expert has received compensation 2 or funding for work in his or her areas of expertise (including in connection with 3 litigation) in the past five years, and (6) identifies (by name and number of the 4 case, filing date, and location of court) any litigation where the expert has offered 5 expert testimony, including by declaration, report, or testimony at deposition or 6 trial, in the past five years. If the expert believes any of this information at (4) - (6) 7 is subject to a confidentiality obligation to a third party, then the expert should 8 provide whatever information the expert believes can be disclosed without 9 violating any confidentiality agreements, and the party seeking to disclose the 10 information to the expert shall be available to meet and confer with the designator 11 regarding any such confidentiality obligations. 12 9.4.3 A party that makes a request and provides the information specified in 13 paragraphs 4.4.1 or 4.4.2 may disclose the designated material to the identified 14 inhouse counsel or expert unless, within seven days of delivering the request, the 15 party receives a written objection from the designator providing detailed grounds 16 for the objection. 17 9.4.4 All challenges to objections from the designator shall proceed under 18 L.R. 37-1 through L.R. 37-4. 19 10. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUPOENAED OR ORDERED 20 PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION 21 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 22 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 23 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 24 (a) Promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification 25 shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 26 (b) Promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order 27 to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the 1 subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall 2 include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and 3 (c) Cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be 4 pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the 5 Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the 6 subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action 7 as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the Court from which the 8 subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s 9 permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking 10 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions 11 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action 12 to disobey a lawful directive from another court. 13 11. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 14 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 15 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a 16 Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information 17 produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the 18 remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be 19 construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 20 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to 21 produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is 22 subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s 23 confidential information, then the Party shall: 24 (1) Promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 25 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality 26 agreement with a Non-Party; 27 1 (2) Promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 2 Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 3 specific description of the information requested; and 4 (3) Make the information requested available for inspection by the Non- 5 Party, if requested. 6 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 7 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving 8 Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the 9 discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving 10 Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject 11 to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the 12 court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and 13 expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material. 14 12. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 15 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has 16 disclosed Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized 17 under this Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) 18 notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its 19 best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform 20 the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms 21 of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the 22 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to be Bound” attached hereto as Exhibit A. 23 13. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 24 PROTECTED MATERIAL 25 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 26 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other 27 protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal 1 whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for 2 production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 3 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure 4 of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or 5 work product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the 6 Stipulated Protective Order submitted to the Court. 7 14. MISCELLANEOUS 8 14.1. Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any 9 person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 10 14.2. Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 11 Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to 12 disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in 13 this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on 14 any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective 15 Order. 16 14.3. Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 17 Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material 18 may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the 19 specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material 20 under seal is denied by the Court, then the Receiving Party may file the 21 information in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the Court. 22 15. FINAL DISPOSITION 23 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 6, within 24 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must 25 return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As 26 used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, 27 compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the 1 Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if 2 not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60-day deadline that 3 (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was 4 || returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any 5 copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or 6 capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel 7 are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, 8 deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition 9 and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert 10 work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival 11 copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this 12 Protective Order as set forth in Section 6 (DURATION). 13 16. VIOLATION 14 Any violation of this Order may be punished by any and all appropriate 15 measures including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary 16 sanctions.

FOR GOOD CAUSE SHOWN, IT IS SO ORDERED.
