CASE NOS. C05-04100 AND C05-04547 VRW (AND RELATED CASES) 

Whereas pretrial discovery in this action and any other patent lawsuit or counter-suit that 

has been filed or is filed in the United States while this action is pending, involving some or all of 

the Toshiba entities and some or all of the Hynix entities who are parties to this action 

collectively, (“the Related Actions”), shall necessarily involve the disclosure of trade secrets or 

confidential research, development, or commercial information of the parties and of non-parties 

from whom discovery may be sought; and 

Whereas Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”) and Hynix Semiconductor Inc., Hynix 

Semiconductor America Inc., and Hynix Semiconductor Manufacturing Inc. (collectively, 

“Hynix” or the “Hynix entities”) have in good faith conferred and have agreed upon the terms of 

a Protective Order to govern the Related Actions and for good cause shown; therefore, 

The parties stipulate, pursuant to Rule 26(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure – 

subject to the approval of the Court – to the following Protective Order: 

1. Scope Of Protection. 

1.1 This Protective Order shall govern any information, document or thing 

designated pursuant to paragraph 2 of this Protective Order, produced in the Related Actions, 

including all designated deposition testimony, all designated testimony taken at a hearing or other 

proceeding, all designated interrogatory answers, documents and other discovery materials and 

things, whether produced informally or in response to interrogatories, requests for admissions, 

requests for production of documents or other formal method of discovery. 

1.2 This Protective Order shall also govern any designated information, 

document or thing produced in the Related Actions pursuant to required disclosures under any 

federal procedural rule, Northern District of California local rule, and any supplementary 

disclosures thereto. 

1.3 This Protective Order shall apply to the parties and any nonparty from 

whom discovery is sought and who desires the protection of this Protective Order. 

2. Designation.

which contains, reflects, or otherwise discloses confidential technical, business or financial 

information. This designation shall be made by stamping or otherwise labeling each page or 

thing containing Confidential information with the legend CONFIDENTIAL (or like designation) 

prior to its production or, if inadvertently produced without such legend, pursuant to the 

procedure set forth in paragraph 15.

2.2 Each party shall have the right to designate as “Attorneys’ Eyes Only,” 

restricted to review by outside attorneys only and subject to this Protective Order, any 

information, document or thing produced in the Related Actions which contains, reflects or 

otherwise discloses trade secrets, current research and development or competitively sensitive 

information. Such “Attorneys’ Eyes Only” information, documents and things may include, 

without limitation, currently competitive trade secrets, confidential technical information, 

technical practices, methods, or other know-how, minutes of Board meetings, pricing data, 

financial data, sales information, customer-confidential information, agreements or relationships 

with non-parties, market projections or forecasts, strategic business plans, selling or marketing 

strategies or new product development, testing, manufacturing costs or information about 

employees. This designation shall be made by stamping or otherwise labeling each page or thing 

containing Attorneys’ Eyes Only information with the legend ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY (or 

like designation) prior to its production or, if inadvertently produced without such legend, 

pursuant to the procedure set forth in paragraph 15. 

2.3 The parties will use reasonable care to avoid designating any information, 

documents or things Confidential that are generally available to the public. The parties will also 

use reasonable care to avoid designating any information, documents or things “Confidential” or 

“Attorneys’ Eyes Only” for which the designating party does not have a good faith belief that the 

information, documents or things satisfy the criteria set forth in this paragraph. To the extent that 

material is marked Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only (collectively “Designated Information”), 

such material shall be revealed to or used only by qualified persons as provided for in paragraph 4 

and shall not be communicated in any manner, either directly or indirectly, to any person or entity 

not permitted disclosure pursuant to this Protective Order. Any copies of such material, abstracts,

contents thereof shall also be deemed Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only and the same terms 

regarding confidentiality of these materials shall apply as apply to the originals. 

2.4 With respect to all materials provided for inspection by a party's counsel, 

designation by stamping or labeling need not be made until copies of the materials are requested 

after inspection and selection by counsel. Making documents and things available for inspection 

shall not constitute a waiver of any claim of confidentiality, and all materials provided for 

inspection by a party's counsel shall be treated as though designated Attorneys’ Eyes Only from 

the time of the inspection until otherwise designated pursuant to this Protective Order or produced 

without a designation. 

3. Limit On Use And Disclosure Of Designated Information.

pursuant to this Protective Order shall use any Designated Information governed by this 

Protective Order only in connection with the prosecution or defense of the Related Actions, 

except by consent of the parties or order of the Court. The prosecution and defense of the Related 

Actions does not include prosecution of patent applications, reissue applications, reexamination 

applications, interference proceedings or opposition proceedings. No party or other person shall 

disclose or release to any person not authorized under this Protective Order any Designated 

Information governed by this Protective Order for any purpose, or to any person authorized under 

this Protective Order for any other purpose. 

3.2 While it is understood that counsel for a party may give advice and 

opinions to his or her client regarding this litigation based on his or her evaluation of designated 

Confidential and Attorneys’ Eyes Only information received by the party – provided that such 

rendering of advice and opinions shall not reveal the content of such Designated Information 

except by prior written agreement with counsel for the producing party – counsel receiving 

Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information under this Protective Order will not in any way 

use such Designated Information to provide advice or opinions to in any way facilitate 

prosecution of any patents or to otherwise attempt to secure patent claims (e.g., reissue,

to preserve the confidentiality of the designated materials to the extent reasonably practicable. 

5.8 Within 30 days of the conclusion of the litigation: 

a. All copies of materials designated under paragraph 5.1 must be 

returned to the producing party. 

b. Notwithstanding the provisions above, outside counsel may retain 

for archive purposes one (1) magnetic and one (1) paper copy of all pleadings exchanged by the 

parties or filed with the Court that contain source code excerpts.

6. Withholding and Redaction. 

Counsel for a party producing documents may withhold documents or mask (“redact”) 

material deemed exempt from discovery because such documents or material are protected from 

disclosure under the attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine of Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b). 

For withheld documents: the document withheld, along with the protection claimed for the 

document and the basis for the protection, shall be reported on a log to be provided within thirty 

(30) calendar days after the production of the files from which the withheld documents originate. 

Documents created after the earliest filing date of the Related Actions which are protected from 

disclosure under the attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine need not be included on 

the privilege log. For redacted documents: (i) the produced document must identify the area 

where redaction has occurred; and (ii) the identity of the redacted document, the protection 

claimed for the redacted portions, and the basis for the protection shall be reported on a log to be 

provided within thirty (30) calendar days after the production of the redacted document. In all 

cases, sufficient information must be provided to enable the other party to evaluate the legitimacy 

of the asserted privilege or immunity. 

7. Identification Of Experts. 

7.1 If any party desires to disclose information designated Confidential or 

Attorney' s Eyes Only to any expert or consultant pursuant to paragraph 4 above, it must first 

identify in writing to the attorneys for the producing party each such expert or consultant. Such 

identification shall include the full name and professional address and/or affiliation of the 

proposed expert or consultant, an up-to-date curriculum vitae, a list of the proposed expert or

within the last four years and all prior and/or present relationships between the expert or 

consultant and the parties in this case. 

7.2 The attorney for the producing party shall have five (5) business days from 

receipt of such notice to object to disclosure of such information to any of the experts or 

consultants so identified. Objections shall not be made except where the objecting party has a 

good faith belief that it may be harmed by the disclosure of the party's information. Any 

objection made to an opposing party shall state in detail the basis for the objection. 

7.3 The parties shall attempt to resolve any objections informally. If the 

objections cannot be resolved, the objecting party may move the Court for an Order preventing 

disclosure to the consultant or expert within ten (10) business days after the objection was made. 

If any such motion is made, the objecting party shall bear the burden of proof. If no such motion 

is made within said ten (10) business day period, the consultant or expert shall be permitted to 

receive Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information pursuant to the terms of this Protective 

Order. In the event objections are made and not resolved informally and a motion is filed, 

disclosure of information to the expert or consultant shall not be made except by Order of the 

Court (or to any limited extent upon which the parties may agree). 

7.4 The parties agree that expert discovery will be limited to the final expert 

report(s) and all information, documents or things upon which the expert relied in preparing the 

final expert report(s). The parties agree that an expert’s draft reports, notes and other 

communications (to the extent not relied upon in preparing the final expert report(s)) will be 

excluded from expert discovery unless specifically relied upon in preparing the final expert 

report(s).

include (a) portions of documents, copies, extracts, and complete or partial summaries prepared

receipt of the official transcript of the deposition, and the transcript shall not be disclosed by a 

non-designating party to persons other than those persons named or approved according to

frame shall not thereafter be treated as Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information, except

351912-990601 [PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 

CASE NOS. C05-04100 AND C05-04547 VRW (AND RELATED CASES) 

Eyes Only and subject to this Protective Order, all persons other than those persons previously 

qualified to receive such information pursuant to paragraph 4. 

9.5 At any court hearing or proceeding no party is prevented by this Protective 

Order from moving the Court to close the hearing and designate all or portions of the transcript as 

Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information. 

10. Disclosure To Author Or Recipient. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Protective Order, nothing herein shall 

prohibit counsel or a party from disclosing a document containing information designated 

Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only to any current employee of the producing party or to any 

person that the document clearly identifies as an author, addressee, or recipient of such document 

or who can be shown by appropriate foundation (without disclosing the contents of the document) 

would have received the particular document or would have been expected to know the contents 

of particular document based on his/her position. Regardless of the designation pursuant to this 

Protective Order, if a document or testimony makes reference to the actual or alleged conduct or 

statements of a person who is a potential witness, counsel may discuss the subject matter of such 

conduct or statements with such witness without revealing any portion of the contents of the 

document or testimony, and such discussion shall not constitute disclosure in violation of this 

Protective Order. 

11. Confidentiality Of Party’s Own Documents. 

Nothing herein shall affect the right of the designating party to disclose to its officers, 

directors, employees, attorneys, consultants or experts, or to any other person, its own 

information. Such disclosure shall not waive the protections of this Protective Order and shall not 

entitle other parties or their attorneys to disclose such information in violation of it, unless by 

such disclosure by the designating party the information becomes public knowledge. Similarly, 

the Protective Order shall not preclude a party from showing its own information to its officers, 

directors, employees, attorneys, consultants or experts, or to any other person, which information 

has been filed under seal by the opposing party.

CASE NOS. C05-04100 AND C05-04547 VRW (AND RELATED CASES) 

12. Designation Of Documents Under Seal. 

Any information designated Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only, if filed with the Court, 

shall be filed under seal and shall be made available only to the Court and to persons authorized 

by the terms of this Protective Order. The party filing any paper which reflects, contains or 

includes any other party's Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information subject to this 

Protective Order shall file such paper in compliance with and pursuant to the pertinent local rules 

where the paper is being filed, for example, Civil Local Rules of the Northern District of 

California, Civil Local Rule 79-5(a) - (f). 

13. Challenge To Confidentiality. 

13.1 This Protective Order shall not preclude any party from seeking and 

obtaining, on an appropriate showing, such additional protection with respect to the 

confidentiality of documents or other discovery materials as that party may consider appropriate. 

Nor shall any party be precluded from (a) claiming that any matter designated hereunder is not 

entitled to the protections of this Protective Order, (b) applying to the Court for an order 

permitting the disclosure or use of Designated Information otherwise prohibited by this Protective 

Order, or (c) applying for a further order modifying this Protective Order in any respect. No party 

shall be obligated to challenge the propriety of any designation, and failure to do so shall not 

preclude a subsequent challenge to the propriety of such designation. 

13.2 If a party seeks de-designation of particular items the following procedure 

shall be utilized: 

a. The party seeking such de-designation shall give counsel of record 

for the other party written notice thereof specifying the Designated Information as to which such 

removal is sought and the reasons for the request; and 

b. If, after conferring, the parties cannot reach agreement concerning 

the matter within five (5) business days after the delivery and receipt of the notice, then the party 

requesting the de-designation of particular items may file and serve a motion for a further order of 

this Court directing that the designation shall be so removed. On any such motion, the burden of 

proof shall lie with the producing party to establish that the information is, in fact, properly

designated as Confidential or Attorneys’ Eyes Only information. 

14. Inadvertent Disclosure Of Work Product Or Privileged Information: 

Procedure And Waiver. 

14.1 The inadvertent production or disclosure of any document or thing 

otherwise protected by the attorney-client privilege or work product immunity shall not operate as 

a waiver of any such privilege or immunity if, after learning of the inadvertent production or 

disclosure, the party who made the inadvertent production or disclosure promptly sends to each 

receiving party a written request for return of the inadvertently produced or disclosed document 

or thing. Upon being notified by the producing party pursuant to this paragraph, counsel for the 

non-producing party shall use his or her best efforts to retrieve all copies of the documents at 

issue. The receiving party shall return or destroy all copies of such documents within five (5) 

business days of such notice and certify such return or destruction in writing to the producing 

party. Return of the document by the receiving party shall not constitute an admission or 

concession, or permit any inference, that the returned document is, in fact, properly subject to a 

claim of attorney-client privilege or work product immunity. 

a. If the receiving party wishes to contest that any such document or 

thing was inadvertently produced or is protected by the attorney-client privilege or by work 

product immunity, the receiving party shall so notify the producing party in its certification of 

return or destruction of the documents or things; 

b. Within five (5) business days after receiving such notification, the 

producing party shall provide to the receiving party a list identifying all such returned documents 

and things and stating the basis for the claim of privilege or immunity. 

c. Within five (5) business days after receiving such a list, the 

receiving party may file a motion to compel production of such documents and things, the 

protection of which is still disputed. If such a motion is filed, the producing party shall have the 

burden of proving that the documents and things in dispute are protected by attorney-client 

privilege or by work product immunity. 

d. With respect to documents and things generated by a receiving

if the receiving party does not notify the producing party that the receiving party disputes the 

claims of attorney-client privilege or work-product immunity, the receiving party shall either 

destroy the derivative documents and things or redact from them all such derivative privileged or 

immune information in a manner such that the derivative information cannot in any way be 

retrieved or reproduced. 

15. Inadvertent Failure To Designate. 

A producing party or nonparty that inadvertently fails to designate information, 

documents or things pursuant to this Protective Order at the time of production may thereafter 

make a designation pursuant to this Protective Order by serving notice thereof in writing, 

accompanied by substitute copies of each item, appropriately designated, to the receiving party 

within five (5) business days of discovery that the information, documents or things were not 

properly designated. The receiving party shall not be in violation of this Protective Order for 

disclosures made prior to receipt of notification. Those individuals who reviewed the 

information, documents or things prior to the notice of misdesignation or failure to designate by 

the producing party shall return to counsel for the producing party or destroy and certify 

destruction of all copies of the misdesignated information, documents or things within ten (10) 

business days after receipt of such notification. 

16. Prior Or Public Knowledge. 

This Protective Order shall not apply to information that, prior to disclosure, is public 

knowledge, and the restrictions contained in this Protective Order shall not apply to information 

that is, or after disclosure becomes, public, was in the possession of the party to whom disclosure 

is made prior to disclosure or is public knowledge other than by an act or omission of the party to 

whom such disclosure is made, or that is legitimately and independently acquired from a source 

not subject to this Protective Order. 

17. Limitation Of Protective Order. 

This Protective Order is not intended to address discovery objections to produce, answer, 

or respond on the grounds of attorney-client privilege or work product immunity, or to preclude
