8 Counter-Defendant. 9 10 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 11 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 12 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public 13 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be 14 warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter 15 the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order 16 does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and 17 that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the 18 limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the 19 applicable legal principles. 20

B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

21 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, other valuable research, 22 development, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary information for 23 which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other 24 than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary 25 materials and information consist of, among other things, confidential business or 26 financial information, information regarding confidential business practices, 27 confidential proposed purchase and sale terms, term sheets, or other confidential 1 research, development, or commercial information (including information 2 implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise generally 3 unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise protected from 4 disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. 5 Due to the potential for competitive harm, information such as business strategies 6 and methods, identities of investors and potential acquisitions may need to be 7 disclosed only to a party’s attorneys. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of 8 information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of 9 discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep 10 confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of 11 such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling 12 at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such 13 information is justified in this matter. To adequately protect information the parties 14 are entitled to keep confidential and to prevent competitive harm two tiers of 15 confidentiality designations—“CONFIDENTIAL” and “HIGHLY 16 CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEY EYES ONLY”—are required. It is the intent of the 17 parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons 18 and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been 19 maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it 20 should not be part of the public record of this case. 21 C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL 22 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this 23 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information 24 under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and 25 the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to 26 file material under seal. 27 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial 1 proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions, 2 good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and 3 County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors 4 Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics, 5 Inc., 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require 6 good cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons 7 with proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with respect to 8 Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation 9 of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—without the 10 submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material 11 sought to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise 12 protectable—constitute good cause. 13 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then 14 compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the 15 relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. 16 See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each 17 item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under 18 seal in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking protection 19 must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal 20 justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting 21 the application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration. 22 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in 23 its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted. If 24 documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting only 25 the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document, shall 26 be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their entirety 27 should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible. 1 2. DEFINITIONS 2 2.1 Action: This pending civil action captioned Olive/Hill Street 3 Partners, LLC v. SPC Owner LLC (Case No. 2:21-cv-02003-CAS (PDx)). 4 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges 5 the designation of information or items under this Order. 6 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of 7 how it is generated, stored or maintained), documents, testimony or tangible things 8 that qualify for protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), and as 9 specified above in the Good Cause Statement. 10 2.4 “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” 11 Information or Items: information (regardless of how it is generated, stored or 12 maintained), documents, testimony or tangible things or the portion thereof that: (a) 13 qualify for protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c) and as specified 14 above in the Good Cause Statement, (b) meet the definition of “CONFIDENTIAL 15 Information or Items,” and (c) are particularly sensitive such that the Designating 16 Party has an objectively reasonable belief that such information, documents, 17 testimony, or tangible things pose a serious risk of competitive harm to the 18 Designating Party should the information, documents, testimony, or tangible things 19 become known to a person or party other than the Designating Party and other than 20 as permitted herein. It is anticipated that the “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 21 ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” designation shall be limited to information, documents, 22 testimony, or tangible things that constitute or contain trade secrets or commercially 23 sensitive information, such as pricing, profits, valuations, marketing strategies, and 24 private placement memoranda. 25 2.5 Counsel: Outside Counsel of Record and In-House Counsel (as well as 26 their support staff). 27 2.6 Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or 1 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 2 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 3 2.7 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless 4 of the medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, 5 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced or 6 generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter. 7 2.8 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 8 pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as 9 an expert witness or as a consultant in this Action. 10 2.9 In-House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a party to this 11 Action. In-House Counsel does not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other 12 outside counsel. 13 2.10 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or 14 other legal entity not named as a Party to this action. 15 2.11 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party 16 to this Action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this Action and have 17 appeared in this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm which 18 has appeared on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 19 2.12 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 20 employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their 21 support staffs). 22 2.13 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or 23 Discovery Material in this Action. 24 2.14 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support 25 services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 26 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) 27 and their employees and subcontractors. 1 2.15 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is 2 designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY 3 EYES ONLY.” 4 2.16 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material 5 from a Producing Party. 6 3. SCOPE 7 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only 8 Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or 9 extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or 10 compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or 11 presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 12 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the 13 trial judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 14 4. DURATION 15 FINAL DISPOSITION of the action is defined as the conclusion of any 16 appellate proceedings, or, if no appeal is taken, when the time for filing of an appeal 17 has run. Except as set forth below, the terms of this protective order apply through 18 FINAL DISPOSITION of the action. The parties may stipulate that the they will be 19 contractually bound by the terms of this agreement beyond FINAL DISPOSITION, 20 but will have to file a separate action for enforcement of the agreement once all 21 proceedings in this case are complete. 22 Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as 23 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” 24 or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced as an exhibit at 25 trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all members of the public, 26 including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by specific factual findings 27 to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of the trial. See 1 Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” showing for sealing 2 documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” standard when merits- 3 related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, for such materials, the 4 terms of this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial. 5 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 6 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 7 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection 8 under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material 9 that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate 10 for protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 11 communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, 12 items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 13 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. 14 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 15 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 16 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose 17 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating 18 Party to sanctions. 19 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 20 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 21 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 22 The protections conferred by this Order do not cover any documents or 23 information (i) already in the public domain at the time of disclosure; (ii) that 24 becomes part of the public domain after its disclosure as a result of disclosure not 25 involving a violation of this Order, including by becoming part of the public record 26 in this Action through trial or otherwise; or (iii) disclosed independently from this 27 Action, from a source who obtained the document or information lawfully and was 1 under no obligation of confidentiality. 2 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 3 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise 4 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection 5 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or 6 produced. 7 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 8 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 9 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 10 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 11 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL” legend), , or the legend 12 “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” (hereinafter “HIGHLY 13 CONFIDENTIAL legend”) to each page that contains protected material. If only a 14 portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing 15 Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate 16 markings in the margins). 17 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 18 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 19 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and 20 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be 21 deemed “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES 22 ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and 23 produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof, 24 qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified 25 documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend or 26 “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL LEGEND”to each page that contains Protected 27 Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for 1 protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) 2 (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 3 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party either (i) 4 identify the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the 5 deposition all protected testimony, or (ii) designate the entirety of the deposition 6 testimony as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY 7 EYES ONLY” before the close of the deposition with the right to identify more 8 specific portions of the deposition testimony as to which protection is sought within 9 thirty (30) days following receipt of the deposition transcript. In circumstances where 10 portions of the deposition testimony are designated for protection, the transcript pages 11 containing “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY 12 EYES ONLY” information may be separately bound by the court reporter, who must 13 affix to the top of each page the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 14 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY”as instructed by the Designating 15 Party. 16 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for 17 any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the 18 exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 19 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY.” 20 If only a portion or portions of the information warrants protection, the Producing 21 Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s). 22 5.3 Designation as to Non-Party Disclosure or Discovery Material. 23 Any Disclosure or Discovery Material that may be produced by a Non-Party 24 in discovery in this Action pursuant to subpoena or otherwise may be designated by 25 such Non-Party or any Party to this Action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or 26 “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” under the terms of this 27 Order. Any such designation by a Non-Party shall have the same force and effect, 1 and create the same duties and obligations, as if made by one of the undersigned 2 Parties hereto. Any such designation shall also function as a consent by such Non- 3 Party or Party to the authority of the Court in the Action to resolve and conclusively 4 determine any motion or other application by any Non-Party or Party with respect to 5 such designation, or any other matter arising under this Order. 6 5.4 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 7 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive 8 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. 9 Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable 10 efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this 11 Order. 12 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 13 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 14 designation of “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY 15 EYES ONLY”at any time that is consistent with the Court’s Scheduling Order. 16 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 17 resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. 18 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on 19 the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose 20 (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may 21 expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived 22 or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the 23 material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing 24 Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 25 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 26 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 27 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 1 Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such 2 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 3 conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a 4 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL 5 DISPOSITION). 6 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 7 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 8 authorized under this Order. 9 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 10 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 11 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 12 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 13 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as well 14 as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary 15 to disclose the information for this Action; 16 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including In-House Counsel) of 17 the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 18 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 19 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 20 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 21 (d) the court and its personnel; 22 (e) court reporters and their staff; 23 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional 24 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have 25 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 26 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a 27 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 1 (h) during their depositions, witnesses , and attorneys for witnesses, in the 2 Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party 3 requests that the witness sign the form “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be 4 Bound” attached as Exhibit 1A hereto; and (2) they will not be permitted to keep any 5 confidential information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to 6 Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered 7 by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that 8 reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court reporter and may 9 not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective 10 Order; and 11 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, 12 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 13 7.3 Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES 14 ONLY” Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in 15 writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose material 16 designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” without 17 further approval only to: 18 (a) The Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action and 19 other attorneys from Outside Counsel of Record’s law firm and employees of 20 Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the 21 information for this Action and the Receiving Party’s In- House Counsel; 22 (b) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 23 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 24 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 25 (c) the court and its personnel; 26 (d) court reporters and their staff; 27 (e) professional jury or trial consultants, and Professional Vendors to 1 whom disclosure is reasonably necessary, and who have signed the 2 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); and 3 (f) the author or recipient of a document containing the material, or a 4 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 5 (g) during their depositions, witnesses , and attorneys for witnesses, in the 6 Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party 7 requests that the witness sign the form “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be 8 Bound” attached as Exhibit 1A hereto; and (2) they will not be permitted to keep 9 any confidential information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement 10 to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or 11 ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to 12 depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court 13 reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this 14 Stipulated Protective Order; and 15 (h) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, 16 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 17 7.4 Procedures for Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 18 ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” Material to Experts. 19 (a) Unless otherwise ordered by the Court or agreed to in writing by the 20 Designating Party, a Party that seeks to disclose to an Expert (as defined in this 21 Order) any information, documents, testimony, or tangible things that have been 22 designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” pursuant to 23 Paragraph 2.4 and Paragraph 5 first must conduct a reasonable investigation of the 24 Expert and determine that (1) neither the Expert nor his or her current employer are 25 currently involved in the potential purchase and sale of the real property at issue in 26 the instant dispute (the “Property”) including, but not limited to, preparing or 27 submitting a bid to purchase the Property, consulting with any person or entity 1 regarding the purchase and sale of the Property, marketing the Property, or assisting 2 with financing for the purchase and sale of the Property; (2) neither the Expert nor 3 his or her employer intend, and agree not to, submit a bid to purchase the Property 4 or otherwise engage in the conduct described more fully in the preceding 5 subparagraph (a) for a period of up to five (5) years after the termination of this 6 action; and (3) the Expert and all persons or entities working with or for the Expert 7 that will receive the “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” 8 material have executed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement To Be Bound” 9 (Exhibit A). 10 (b) For each such investigation completed, counsel who conducted the 11 investigation must prepare and sign a declaration attesting to the reasonableness of 12 his or her investigation and that the investigation determined that (1) neither the 13 Expert nor his or her current employer are currently involved in the potential 14 purchase and sale of the Property including, but not limited to, preparing or 15 submitting a bid to purchase the Property, consulting with any person or entity 16 regarding the purchase and sale of the Property, marketing the Property, assisting 17 with financing for the purchase and sale of the Property; (2) neither the Expert nor 18 his or her employer intend, and agree not to, submit a bid to purchase the Property 19 or otherwise engage in the conduct described more fully in the preceding 20 subparagraph (1) for a period of up to five (5) years after the termination of this 21 action; and (3) the Expert and all persons or entities working with or for the Expert 22 that will receive the “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” 23 material have executed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement To Be Bound” 24 (Exhibit A). The Receiving Party shall keep and store all such declarations and 25 shall provide them to the Designating Party at the conclusion of the litigation or as 26 otherwise ordered by the Court upon a showing of good cause by the Designating 27 Party. 1 (c) The Receiving Party shall maintain a log of all persons to whom any 2 information, documents, testimony, or tangible things designated “HIGHLY 3 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” is provided, and shall provide 4 such log to the Designating Party at the conclusion of the litigation or as otherwise 5 ordered by the Court upon a showing of good cause by the Designating Party. The 6 log shall be kept with sufficient detail to allow the Designating Party to determine 7 whether the Receiving Party has complied with the requirements of this Order. 8 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED 9 IN OTHER LITIGATION 10 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 11 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 12 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” 13 that Party must: 14 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall 15 include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 16 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order 17 to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena 18 or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of 19 this Stipulated Protective Order; and 20 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued 21 by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. 22 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served 23 with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this 24 action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY -CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEY EYES 25 ONLY” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order issued, 26 unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating 27 Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court of its 1 confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed as 2 authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful 3 directive from another court. 4 9. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT 5 TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 6 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a 7 Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 8 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEY EYES ONLY” Such information produced by 9 Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief 10 provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as 11 prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 12 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to 13 produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is 14 subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non- 15 Party’sconfidential information, then the Party shall: 16 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 17 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement 18 with a Non-Party; 19 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 20 Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 21 specific description of the information requested; and 22 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the 23 Non-Party, if requested. 24 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 25 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party 26 may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery 27 request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall 1 not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the 2 confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. 3 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense 4 of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material. 5 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 6 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 7 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this 8 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in 9 writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts 10 to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or 11 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, 12 and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and 13 Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 14 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 15 PROTECTED MATERIAL 16 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 17 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, 18 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil 19 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure 20 may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior 21 privilege review. 22 12. MISCELLANEOUS 23 12.1 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 12.2 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 to 27 disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this 1 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 12.3 Filing Protected Material.
