STIPULATED [PROPOSED] PROTECTIVE ORDER

CASE NO. 2:20-CV-01796-TLN-CKD

] The purpose of this Protective Order is to safeguard the production of Discovery Material 2 || that is confidential, commercially sensitive, proprietary, or privileged, and to facilitate the prompt 3 || resolution of disputes over confidentiality and privilege, pursuant to the Court’s inherent 4 || authority, its authority under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c) and Federal Rule of Evidence 5 || 502(d), and the judicial opinions interpreting such Rules. 6 The Parties shall serve a copy of this Order simultaneously with any discovery request 7 || made to a third party. To preserve and maintain the confidentiality of certain confidential, 8 || commercial and/or proprietary documents and information produced or to be produced in this 9 || action, the terms of this Protective Order are as follows: 10 1. As used in this Order, the term “Discovery Material” means all testimony, written 11 || material, electronic data, videotapes and all other tangible items, produced in whatever format 12 || (e.g., hard copy, electronic, digital, etc.) and on whatever media (e.g., hard copy, videotape, 13 || computer diskette, CD-ROM, DVD, by secure electronic transmission, hard drive or otherwise). 14 2. All Discovery Material produced by the Parties or third parties in this case and 15 || labeled “SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER or “CONFIDENTIAL,” “HIGHLY 16 || CONFIDENTIAL,” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” (collectively, “Protected Document(s)”) 17 || shall be used only in this Proceeding, as follows: 18 a. A Party producing Discovery Material (the “Producing Party”) may 19 || designate the Discovery Material as “SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER” OR 20 || “CONFIDENTIAL” if the Producing Party believes in good faith that the material is confidential 21 || and it (4) would not normally reveal the information to third parties except in confidence or has 22 || undertaken with others to maintain in confidence, or (11) 1s protected by a right to privacy under 23 || federal or state law or any other applicable privilege or right related to confidentiality or privacy. 24 b. A Producing Party may designate Discovery Material as “HIGHLY 25 || CONFIDENTIAL” if it meets the requirements for “Confidential” information, as set forth above, 26 || and which a Producing Party believes in good faith that it would likely cause competitive, 27 || commercial, or financial injury if disclosed beyond those designated in paragraph 8 below. This 28 || designation is intended for information that constitutes proprietary financial, technical, _|- SE ASE NON) ODN □□□ □□□□

1 || competitive, or commercially sensitive information that the Producing Party maintains as highly 2 || confidential in its business, e.g., materials relating to future products, strategic plans, non-public 3 || financial data, and trade secrets. This designation also includes information obtained from a non- 4 || party pursuant to a nondisclosure agreement that falls within the foregoing definition of HIGHLY 5 || CONFIDENTIAL material unless the non-party permits a different designation in writing. 6 c. If a Producing Party believes in good faith that a document contains highly 7 || confidential information and its disclosure would present a risk of competitive, commercial or 8 || financial harm to the Producing Party that could not be avoided by less restrictive means and the 9 || HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL protection does not afford it sufficient protection, the Producing 10 || Party shall meet and confer with the Receiving Party on the appropriate protection for such 11 || documents that the Producing Party believes would extend beyond the HIGHLY 12 || CONFIDENTIAL designation, and thereafter may apply the appropriate agreed-upon protections 13 || by designating the document as OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY. 14 3. Protected Documents shall be used, shown, or disclosed only as provided in this 15 || Order. However, nothing in this Order shall limit a Party’s use or disclosure of its, his, or her own 16 || information designated as a Protected Document or Protected Information. 17 4. The Producing Party that designates information or items for protection under this 18 || Protective Order must act in good faith in designating the Discovery Material. The Producing 19 || Party will not designate entire families of documents (e.g., e-mails with attachments) if every 20 || document in the family does not qualify for the same designation. If the Producing Party 21 || designates a family of documents as Protected, and the Receiving Party believes each document 22 || in the family should be separately designated, the Parties will meet and confer to resolve the 23 || issue. 24 5. A Party receiving Discovery Material (the “Receiving Party’’) shall not be 25 || obligated to challenge the propriety of any Protected designation under this Order at the time the 26 || designation is made, and a failure to do so shall not preclude a subsequent challenge thereto. If 27 || any Party believes in good faith that any Protected Documents have been misclassified under this 28 || Protective Order, are not properly subject to the confidentiality designation assigned to it, or □□□ SE ASE NON) ODN □□□ □□□□

1 || should not be subject to this Protective Order, that Party must notify the Designating Party and 2 || Producing Party in writing, including by email, and identify the documents with specificity, 3 || cluding by Bates number where available, and provide the specific grounds for the objection to 4 || the designation. The Parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must confer 5 || directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 6 || business days of the date of service of the written notice. In conferring, the Party challenging the 7 || designation must explain the basis for its, his, or her belief that the confidentiality designation 8 || was not proper and must give the Producing Party an opportunity to review the designated 9 || material, to reconsider circumstances; if no change in designation is offered, the Producing Party 10 || must explain the basis for the chosen designation. If the Parties are unable to resolve the issue of 11 || confidentiality regarding the challenged document(s), within 30 business days of receiving notice 12 || of objection to the confidentiality designation, any Party may move for a determination as to 13 || whether the challenged designation is appropriate. The challenged document(s) will continue to 14 || be treated as designated pending determination by the Court as to the confidential status. Each 15 || Party reserves the right to challenge a confidentiality designation for purposes of determining 16 || whether a Protected Document should be filed (or remain filed) under seal, even if such 17 || designation meets the definition of Protected Documents under this Protective Order. 18 6. Protected Documents and any copies thereof shall be maintained as confidential by 19 || the persons authorized to receive the documents pursuant to paragraphs 7, 8 and 9 and shall be 20 || used only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation, subject to the 21 || limitations set forth herein. 22 7. Discovery Material designated “SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER?” or 23 || “CONFIDENTIAL” shall be disclosed only to “Qualified Persons.” Qualified Persons are limited 24 || to: 25 a. Ford’s in-house attorneys working on this matter, including those working 26 || under their supervision and direction. 27 28 3 SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

Further, such 24 || Protected Documents may be shown to the persons described in this subsection only for a 25 || reasonable length of time sufficient to determine whether the person is familiar with, has 26 || previously seen, or has knowledge of the underlying information contained in the Protected 27 || Document. In addition, such persons may not retain copies of Protected Documents unless 28 || permitted by other provisions of this Protective Order. _4- SE ASE NON) ODN □□□ □□□□

Any other person with the prior written consent of the Producing Party or 5 || permitted by the Court. 6 8. Documents designated HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL shall be disclosed only to 7 || persons described in paragraphs 7(a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (1), G), and (Kk). 8 9. Before receiving access to any Protected Document or the information contained 9 || therein, each person described in paragraphs 7(d), (e), (g), (h) (1), and (k) above shall be provided 10 || with a copy of this Protective Order, which he or she shall read, and, upon reading this Protective 11 || Order, shall execute a “Written Assurance” in the form attached hereto as Attachment A. 12 10. Counsel for the Parties shall retain each such executed Written Assurance(s) and a 13 || list of the Protected Documents disclosed to each actual or potential witness who signed the 14 || Written Assurance(s) and was shown Protected Documents outside of a deposition or in-court 15 || testimony. After the termination of this litigation (including appeals), the Receiving Party shall 16 || produce to the Producing Party a list of the Protected Documents disclosed to each non-testifying 17 || witness or consulting expert outside of a deposition or in-court testimony, organized by Bates 18 || number, and listing the number of non-testifying witnesses and consulting experts to whom each 19 |} Protected Document has been disclosed outside of a deposition or in- court testimony. This 20 || production shall not include identifying information about the witnesses and shall be organized 21 || document-by-document. The Receiving Party must keep a list of which non-testifying witnesses 22 || and consulting experts reviewed which documents. The Producing Party may move for disclosure 23 || of the names of witnesses to whom a Protected Document was shown upon a showing of good 24 || cause of a violation of this Protective Order and this Court will determine whether production of 25 || the names is warranted. 26 11. — Any Party or third party may designate documents exchanged, whether in 27 || response to formal or informal requests, as “Subject to Protective Order,” “Confidential,” “Highly 28 || Confidential,” or “Outside Counsel Only” by: (a) including a statement that such information 1s _§- SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

1 || “Subject to Protective Order,” “Confidential,” “Highly Confidential,” or “Outside Counsel Only” 2 || in the answer or response; or (b) designating such information as “Subject to Protective Order,” 3 || “Confidential,” “Highly Confidential,” or “Outside Counsel Only” thereafter as provided in this 4 || Protective Order. A legend of “Subject to Protective Order,” “Confidential,” “Highly 5 || Confidential,” or “Outside Counsel Only” shall also be included on each page of a document over 6 || which confidentiality is claimed. 7 As the Protected Documents may be distributed only to Qualified Persons solely 8 || for purposes of this litigation, Qualified Persons may not post Protected Documents on any public 9 || website and shall not under any circumstance sell, offer for sale, advertise, or publicize either the 10 || Protected Documents and the Protected, Confidential, Highly Confidential, or Outside Counsel 11 |} Only information contained therein or the fact that such persons have obtained a Party’s Protected 12 || Documents and confidential information. 13 13. To the extent that Protected Documents or information obtained therefrom are 14 || used in the taking of depositions, such documents or information shall remain subject to the 15 || provisions of this Order, along with the transcript pages of the deposition testimony and/or trial 16 || testimony dealing with, referring to or referencing the Protected Documents or information. The 17 || Party using Protected Documents shall take all reasonable steps to maintain confidentiality of the 18 || Protected Documents during such use by redacting documents or testimony to the extent possible, 19 || requesting that the Court seal any transcript or exhibits with respect to the Proceeding, or moving 20 || for the sequestration of unauthorized persons. 21 14. —_ A Producing Party may produce records in this litigation that contain Personally 22 || Identifying Information (“PII”) of certain individuals. While a Producing Party may redact PII, 23 || redacting certain PII may be unduly burdensome, and thus such Party may choose to not redact 24 || PII in all documents produced subject to applicable law or regulation. The Parties agree that any 25 || PII contained in documents produced in this litigation shall be treated as Protected Documents or 26 || Protected Information, pursuant to the terms of this Order. Nothing in this paragraph shall be 27 || construed as a waiver by the Parties of their position that the Parties are entitled to redact PII. 28 || Defendant may redact Highly Confidential information if it is irrelevant under these three criteria: _6- SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

1 || (1) the information is not related in any way to the alleged defect in the operative Complaint in 2 || this action, (2) the information involves confidential information of a nonparty that Ford is bound 3 || by agreement, order, or law to protect, and (3) it is readily apparent that the information falls 4 || within (1) and (2). If it is not readily apparent to Plaintiffs that redacted information is irrelevant 5 || under this criteria, the Parties must meet and confer before bringing any dispute under this 6 || paragraph to the Court. 7 15. The Producing Party shall preserve an unredacted version of any document that it 8 || redacts. The process for challenging the designation of redactions shall be the same as the process 9 || for challenging the designation of Protected Material set forth in paragraph 5. If counsel for the 10 || Producing Party agrees that information initially redacted should not be redacted or should 11 |] receive alternative treatment, or if the Court orders the same, and the material is subsequently 12 || produced in unredacted form, all affected pages shall bear the legend applicable to the 13 || confidentiality designation made by the Producing Party, and shall continue to be treated in 14 || accordance with that confidentiality designation. 15 16. Filing Protected Material. All documents or testimony that are filed with the Court 16 || that contain any portion of any Protected Documents or Protected Information shall be filed under 17 || seal pursuant to Local Rule 141. 18 17. In the case of depositions or other pre-trial testimony, designation of the pages and 19 || lines of the transcript (including exhibits) which contains “Confidential,” “Highly Confidential” 20 || or “Outside Counsel Only” material shall be made (i) by a statement to such effect on the record 21 || during the Proceeding in which the testimony is received, or (11) by written notice served on 22 || counsel of record in this Litigation within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of the final 23 || transcript of such Proceeding (as used herein, the term “draft transcript” does not include an 24 || ASCII or rough transcript). However, before such thirty (30) day period expires, all testimony, 25 || exhibits and transcripts of depositions or other testimony shall be treated as “Highly Confidential” 26 || material. All portions of deposition transcripts not designated “Confidential,” “Highly 27 || Confidential,” or “Outside Counsel Only” shall be deemed not confidential unless the testimony 28 || contains PII. Portions of deposition transcripts containing PII shall automatically be deemed as _7- SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

1 || “Confidential” without designation unless a Party designates such information as “Highly 2 || Confidential” or “Outside Counsel Only”. 3 18. Inadvertent or unintentional production of documents or information containing 4 || confidential information that should have been designated as Protected Document(s) shall not be 5 || deemed a waiver in whole or in part of the Producing Party’s claims of confidentiality. In the 6 || event that a Party produces a document without a confidentiality designation as permitted by this 7 || Order, the Producing Party shall, within ten (10) business days of the discovery of the disclosure, 8 || notify the other Party in writing and provide a replacement image for the document and an 9 || overlay with the new confidentiality designation in the appropriate metadata field. The Party 10 || receiving such notice shall promptly certify destruction of the improperly designated document, 11 || including all copies thereof. The production of such document does not constitute a waiver of any 12 || claim of confidentiality as set forth in this order or any other matter in any other jurisdiction, 13 || unless otherwise ordered by the Court. 14 19. Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that 15 || compels disclosure of any Protected Material, that Party must: promptly notify in writing the 16 || Designating Party unless prohibited by law from doing so. Such notification shall include a copy 17 || of the subpoena or court order; promptly notify in writing the Party who caused the subpoena or 18 || order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or 19 || order is subject to this Order; and cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be 20 || pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the Designating 21 || Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the subpoena or court order shall not 22 || produce any Protected Material before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or 23 || order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating 24 || Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection of its Protected Material, and 25 || nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party 26 || to disobey a lawful directive from another court. 27 20. This Protective Order is entered pursuant to and invokes the protections of Federal 28 || Rule of Evidence 502(d). _8- SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

] 21. The Parties may disclose and produce responsive Discovery Material to each other 2 || in this litigation and seek to do so without risking waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work 3 || product, or other applicable privilege or protection. As such, the Parties will adhere to the 4 || following procedures with regard to the production of privileged or protected material, should 5 || that occur: 6 a. The unintentional production of Discovery Material (including both paper 7 || documents and electronically stored information or “ESI”) subject to protection by the attorney- 8 || client and/or work product doctrine or by another legal privilege protecting information from 9 || discovery, shall not constitute a waiver of any privilege or other protection, provided that the 10 || Producing Party reasonably notifies the Receiving Party, in writing, of the production after its 11 || discovery of the same. 12 b. If the Producing Party notifies the Receiving Party after discovery that 13 || unintentional privileged materials (hereinafter referred to as the “Identified Materials”) have been 14 || produced, the Identified Materials and all copies of those materials shall be destroyed or deleted, 15 || on request of the Producing Party. If the Receiving Party has any notes or other work product 16 || reflecting the contents of the Identified Materials, the Receiving Party will not review or use 17 || those materials unless a court later designates the Identified Materials as not privileged or 18 || protected. 19 c. The Identified Materials shall be deleted from any systems used to house 20 || the documents, including document review databases, e-rooms and any other location that stores 21 || the documents. The Receiving Party may make no use of the Identified Materials during any 22 || aspect of this matter or any other matter, including in depositions or at trial, unless the documents 23 || have been designated by a court as not privileged or protected. 24 d. The contents of the Identified Materials shall not be disclosed to anyone 25 || who was not already aware of the contents of them before the notice was made. The Receiving 26 || Party must take reasonable steps to retrieve the Identified Materials if the Receiving Party 27 || disclosed the Identified Materials before being notified. 28 9. SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

] e. Nothing in this Order limits or otherwise modifies an attorney’s ethical 2 || responsibilities with respect to the review or disclosure of privileged information. 3 f. The Party destroying the Identified Materials may move the Court for an 4 || order compelling production of some or all of the Identified Material destroyed, but the basis for 5 || such motion may not be based on the fact or circumstances of the production. 6 g. The inadvertent or mistaken disclosure of Identified Materials in this action 7 || 1s not a waiver of the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other asserted 8 || privilege in any other federal or state proceeding, pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d). 9 22. No provision of this Protective Order shall constitute a concession by any Party 10 || that any documents are subject to protection by the attorney-client privilege, the work product 11 || doctrine or any other potentially applicable privilege or doctrine. No provision of this Protective 12 || Order is intended to waive or limit in any way either Party’s right to contest any privilege claims 13 || that may be asserted with respect to any of the documents produced except to the extent set forth 14 || herein. 15 23. This Protective Order shall not be construed to prohibit any Party’s disclosure or 16 || production of safety-related information to a regulatory agency or governmental entity with an 17 || interest in the safety-related information. If any Party has a reasonable belief that certain 18 || documents are safety-related and need to be disclosed to a regulatory agency or governmental 19 || entity, material subject to this Protective Order may only be disclosed to such regulatory agency 20 || or governmental entity with an interest in the safety-related information by Ford, and such 21 || disclosure shall be made pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 512 or similar applicable rules. Ford will, in that 22 || instance, provide Plaintiffs with a copy of any disclosure, pursuant to this Protective Order, if 23 || appropriate, to the regulatory agency or governmental entity unless the regulatory agency objects 24 || or does not consent to the disclosure. 25 24. If other Parties to this Protective Order have a reasonable belief that certain 26 || documents are safety-related and need to be disclosed to a regulatory agency or governmental 27 || entity, they are not prohibited from advising the regulatory agency or governmental entity that 28 10 - SO ASENO OO CW □□□□□□□□□□□

1 || they believe such documents were produced in this case, however, any disclosure of such 2 || documents shall adhere to the procedure described in Paragraph 25. 3 25. This Protective Order may not be waived, modified, abandoned or terminated, in 4 || whole or part, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties. If any provision of this 5 || Protective Order shall be held invalid for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions shall 6 || not be affected thereby. 7 26. For purposes of this Protective Order, the “final determination of this Proceeding” 8 || shall be deemed to be the latter of (1) full settlement of all claims; (11) final judgment herein after 9 || the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, re-hearings, remands, trials and reviews, if any, of 10 || this Proceeding (excluding any time period under which the Court has supervision or oversight 11 || over any relief issued through a consent decree or any non-preliminary injunction issued by the 12 || Court); or (411) the expiration of all time limits under federal law for the filing of or application for 13 || all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials or reviews of this Proceeding, including the time limits for 14 || the filing of any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law. This 15 || Court retains and shall have jurisdiction over the Parties and recipients of the Protected 16 || Documents for enforcement of the provisions of this Order following termination of this 17 || litigation. 18 27. — Within 90 calendar days of the final determination of this Proceeding, through 19 |} commercially reasonable efforts, all Protected Documents, including all hard and electronic 20 || copies, derivations, and summaries thereof, shall be destroyed or deleted, with a written 21 || certification of such secure destruction or deletion provided to the Producing Party or third party. 22 || This includes the secure destruction or deletion of Protected Documents provided to any person, 23 || including independent experts. Protected Documents that may exist on any back up media must 24 || also be destroyed or deleted within 90 calendar days of the final determination of this Proceeding. 25 || Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel of record are entitled to retain an archival copy of all 26 || pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, 27 || correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and 28 || consultant and expert work product, excluding Protected Documents or material. -I]- SE ASE NON) ODN □□□ □□□□
