shall be subject to additional protections given the particularly sensitive nature of the information

and shall be limited to outside counsel for the receiving parties and to experts disclosed pursuant to

Section 7.4.

The copying of media bearing the designation “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

produced by Plaintiffs shall be copied to no more than four (4) of Defendants’ non-networked, standalone laptop or desktop computers; electronic media produced by Defendants shall be copied to no

more than three (3) of Plaintiff Baxter’s non-networked, stand-alone laptop, or desktop computers

and to no more than three (3) of Plaintiff DEKA’s non-networked, stand-alone laptop, or desktop

computers. Access to the computers shall be restricted by password protection to avoid access by

unauthorized individuals. The password shall be disclosed only to those individuals authorized to

have access to “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – SOURCE CODE”

information. The stand-alone computers shall be kept in a secure location that remains locked when

not in regular use. The source code shall not be copied or transmitted to any other computer. Each

consultant, expert, or attorney will record on a log every page of source code that has been printed

(“printed logs”). All printed pages shall bear the “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’

EYES ONLY – SOURCE CODE” designation and shall include, in the footer, both the bates

number and the file name from the bates labeled file or disk containing the printed code. To the

extent that any party produces pdf, tiff, or other image files of source code that include optical

character recognition information, such files will be maintained and handled in accordance with the

provisions of this Paragraph.

The password-protected computers shall be maintained by recipient Fish & Richardson P.C.

at its Redwood City, Minneapolis, and San Diego offices and at the workplace of one of its technical

experts; by recipient Kirkland & Ellis LLP at its Chicago and San Francisco offices and at the

workplace of one of its technical experts; by recipient Coblentz, Patch, Duffy & Bass at its San

source code is to be solicited or to the court. Transportation to intermediate locations reasonably

necessary to bringing the computers and/or the printed code sections to the deposition site or court

(e.g., a hotel prior to deposition) shall be permitted.

Defendants will produce a complete set of source code discs (both retrospectively and

prospectively) for use with each computer dedicated to source code review. Specifically,

refer to, and/or reproduce minor portions of the source code but shall not substantially or

No source code or documents describing it shall be lodged or filed with the Court except

under seal and referencing this Protective Order. Any such motion to seal must comply with the

requirements of Civil L.R. 79-5 and with this Court’s Standing Order for Cases Involving Sealed or

Confidential Documents. If required in connection with any motion or other proceedings, an

additional stand-alone computer containing the source code may be used in a closed courtroom or in

chambers.

media, print-outs, and copies containing source code have been destroyed, with the exception of

exhibits that were attached to filed (sealed) pleadings or admitted into evidence; (b) the hard drives

of the non-networked computer has been reformatted; and (c) the print logs have been archived
