IBM’s confidential business, trade secret or personal identifying information and are properly 

sealable. 

2. Exhibits 1 and 2 to the Puckett Declaration contain confidential business or trade 

secret information of Synopsys and/or IBM and are properly sealable. 

 Accordingly, this motion is made on the grounds that portions of Magma’s Evidentiary 

Objections and Exhibit 1 and 2 to the Puckett Declaration contain confidential business, trade 

secret or personal identifying information or have been designated confidential and are properly 

sealable.
