STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER -1-

CASE NO. C 05-004744 MMC

1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS.

Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of 

confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure 

and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation would be warranted. Accordingly,

the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order.

The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or 

responses to discovery and that the protection it affords extends only to the limited information or 

items that are entitled under the applicable legal principles to treatment as confidential. The parties 

further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 11, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order creates

no entitlement to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the 

procedures that must be followed and reflects the standards that will be applied when a party seeks 

permission from the court to file material under seal.

2. DEFINITIONS.

2.1 Party: any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors, employees, 

consultants, retained experts, and outside counsel (and their support staff).

2.2 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the 

medium or manner generated, stored, or maintained (including, among other things, testimony, 

transcripts, or tangible things) that are produced or generated in disclosures or responses to discovery 

in this matter.

2.3 “Confidential” Information or Items: information (regardless of how generated, 

stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection under standards developed under 

F.R.Civ.P. 26(c).

2.4 “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” Information or Items: extremely 

sensitive “Confidential Information or Items” whose disclosure to another Party or non-party would 

create a substantial risk of serious injury that could not be avoided by less restrictive means.

2.5 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material from a

Producing Party.

2.6 Producing Party: a Party or non-party that produces Disclosure or Discovery 

Material in this action.

2.7. Designating Party: a Party or non-party that designates information or items that 

it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential —

Attorneys’ Eyes Only.”

2.8 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is designated as 

“Confidential” or as “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only.”

2.9. Outside Counsel: attorneys who are not employees of a Party but who are 

retained to represent or advise a Party in this action.

2.10 House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a Party.

2.11 Counsel (without qualifier): Outside Counsel and House Counsel (as well as 

their support staffs).

2.12 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter pertinent 

to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as an expert witness or as a 

consultant in this action and who is not a past or a current employee of a Party or of a competitor of a 

Party and who, at the time of retention, is not anticipated to become an employee of a Party or a 

competitor of a Party. This definition includes a professional jury or trial consultant retained in 

connection with this litigation.

2.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support services 

(e.g., photocopying; videotaping; translating; preparing exhibits or demonstrations; organizing, 

storing, retrieving data in any form or medium; etc.) and their employees and subcontractors.

3. SCOPE.

The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected 

Material (as defined above), but also any information copied or extracted therefrom, as well as all

copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations thereof, plus testimony, conversations, or presentations

by parties or counsel to or in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material.

4. DURATION.

Even after the termination of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by 

this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order 

otherwise directs.

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL.

5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each 

Party or non-party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care 

to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. A 

Designating Party must take care to designate for protection only those parts of material, documents, 

items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material, 

documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 

unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are 

shown to be clearly unjustified, or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily 

encumber or retard the case development process, or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on 

other parties), expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

If it comes to a Party’s or a non-party’s attention that information or items that it 

designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, or do not qualify for the level of 

protection initially asserted, that Party or non-party must promptly notify all other parties that it is 

withdrawing the mistaken designation.

5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this 

Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a), below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, 

material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material 

is disclosed or produced.

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

(a) for information in documentary form (apart from transcripts of depositions 

or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” on each page that contains protected 

material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing 

Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the 

margins) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection being asserted (either 

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).

A Party or non-party that makes original documents or materials available for 

inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which 

material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of 

the material made available for inspection shall be deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants 

copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof, 

qualify for protection under this Order, then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing 

Party must affix the appropriate legend (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”) on each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or 

portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly 

identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must 

specify, for each portion, the level of protection being asserted (either “CONFIDENTIAL” or 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).

(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings,

that the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony identify on the record, before the close

of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony, and further specify any 

portions of the testimony that qualify as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY.” When it is impractical to identify separately each portion of testimony that is entitled to 

protection, and when it appears that substantial portions of the testimony may qualify for protection,

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER -5-

the Party or non-party that sponsors, offers, or gives the testimony may invoke on the record (before 

the deposition or proceeding is concluded) a right to have up to 20 days to identify the specific 

portions of the testimony as to which protection is sought and to specify the level of protection being 

asserted (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).

Only those portions of the testimony that are appropriately designated for protection within the 20 

days shall be covered by the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.

Transcript pages containing Protected Material must be separately bound by the court

reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” as instructed by the Party or non-party offering 

or sponsoring the witness or presenting the testimony.

(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary, and for any 

other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the 

container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” If only portions of the information

or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 

portions, specifying whether they qualify as “Confidential” or as “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ 

Eyes Only.”

5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to 

designate qualified information or items as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes 

Only” does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this 

Order for such material. If material is appropriately designated as “Confidential” or “Highly 

Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” after the material was initially produced, the Receiving Party, 

on timely notification of the designation, must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is 

treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS.

6.1 Timing of Challenges. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s

confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable substantial unfairness, unnecessary 

economic burdens, or a later significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its 

right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the 

original designation is disclosed.

6.2 Meet and Confer. A Party that elects to initiate a challenge to a Designating 

Party’s confidentiality designation must do so in good faith and must begin the process by conferring 

directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) with counsel for 

the Designating Party. In conferring, the challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the 

confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to 

review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is 

offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A challenging Party may proceed to the next 

stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first.

6.3 Judicial Intervention. A Party that elects to press a challenge to a 

confidentiality designation after considering the justification offered by the Designating Party may file 

and serve a motion under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if 

applicable) that identifies the challenged material and sets forth in detail the basis for the challenge.

Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration that affirms that the movant has 

complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph and that sets 

forth with specificity the justification for the confidentiality designation that was given by the 

Designating Party in the meet and confer dialogue.

The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating 

Party. Until the court rules on the challenge, all parties shall continue to afford the material in 

question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation.

7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL.

7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 

disclosed or produced by another Party or by a non-party in connection with this case only for

disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the 

litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 12, 

below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location 

and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order.

7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise 

ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose 

any information or item designated "CONFIDENTIAL" only to:

(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of record in this action, as well as 

employees of said Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this 

litigation;

(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the 

Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed 

the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A);

(c) experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure 

is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by 

Protective Order” (Exhibit A);

(d) the Court and its personnel;

(e) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom disclosure is 

reasonably necessary for this litigation;

(f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is 

reasonably necessary. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal

Each person to whom "CONFIDENTIAL" information or items is actually disclosed or 

otherwise furnished under this Order, including without limitation outside counsel and consultants, is 

barred by this Court from involvement in the preparation or prosecution of any U.S. or foreign patent 

applications, including continuation, continuation-in-part, divisional, or reissue patent applications in 

the subject area of this litigation (including but not limited to technology concerning handwritten 

signature capture, verification, and/or recognition) from the time that he or she receives the 

"CONFIDENTIAL" information or items until one year following the entry of a final, non-appealable

judgment or order or the complete settlement of all claims against all parties in this action.

7.3 Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” 

Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the 

Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated “HIGHLY 

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” only to:

employees of said Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this 

litigation;

(b) Experts (as defined in this Order) (1) to whom disclosure is reasonably 

necessary for this litigation, (2) who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” 

(Exhibit A), and (3) as to whom the procedures set forth in paragraph 7.4, below, have been followed;

(c) the Court and its personnel;

(d) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom disclosure is 

reasonably necessary for this litigation; and

(e) the author of the document, the recipient of the document (if the document 

was received lawfully prior to its designation as "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS' EYES

CASE NO. C 05-004744 MMC

Each person to whom "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" 

information or items is actually disclosed or otherwise furnished under this Order, including without 

limitation outside counsel and consultants, is barred by this Court from involvement in the preparation 

or prosecution of any U.S. or foreign patent applications, including continuation, continuation-in-part,

divisional, or reissue patent applications in the subject area of this litigation (including but not limited 

to technology concerning handwritten signature capture, verification, and/or recognition) from the 

time that he or she receives the "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" 

information or items until one year following the entry of a final, non-appealable judgment or order or 

the complete settlement of all claims against all parties in this action.

7.4 Procedures for Approving Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ 

EYES ONLY” Information or Items to “Experts”.

(a) Unless otherwise ordered by the court or agreed in writing by the 

Designating Party, a Party that seeks to disclose to an “Expert” (as defined in this Order) any 

information or item that has been designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY” first must make a written request to the Designating Party that (1) sets forth the full name of 

the Expert and the city and state of his or her primary residence, (2) attaches a copy of the Expert’s 

current resume, (3) identifies the Expert’s current employer(s), and (4) identifies each person or entity 

from whom the Expert has received compensation for work in his or her areas of expertise or to whom 

the expert has provided professional services at any time during the preceding three years, and (5) 

identifies (by name and number of the case, filing date, and location of court) any litigation in 

connection with which the Expert has prepared an expert report or declaration, or has testified in 

deposition or in court, during the preceding three years.

(b) A Party that makes a request and provides the information specified in the 

preceding paragraph may disclose the subject Protected Material to the identified Expert unless, within 

seven court days of delivering the request, the Party receives a written objection from the Designating

Party. Any such objection must set forth in detail the grounds on which it is based.

(c) A Party that receives a timely written objection must meet and confer with 

the Designating Party (through direct voice to voice dialogue) to try to resolve the matter by 

agreement. If no agreement is reached, the Party seeking to make the disclosure to the Expert may file 

a motion as provided in Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if 

applicable) seeking permission from the court to do so. Any such motion must describe the 

circumstances with specificity, set forth in detail the reasons for which the disclosure to the Expert is 

reasonably necessary, assess the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail and suggest any 

additional means that might be used to reduce that risk. In addition, any such motion must be 

accompanied by a competent declaration in which the movant describes the parties’ efforts to resolve 

the matter by agreement (i.e., the extent and the content of the meet and confer discussions) and sets 

forth the reasons advanced by the Designating Party for its refusal to approve the disclosure.

In any such proceeding the Party opposing disclosure to the Expert shall bear the 

burden of proving that the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail (under the safeguards 

proposed) outweighs the Receiving Party’s need to disclose the Protected Material to its Expert.

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN 

OTHER LITIGATION.

If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or an order issued in other litigation that 

would compel disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” 

or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” the Receiving Party must so notify 

the Designating Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) immediately and in no event more than three 

court days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification must include a copy of the 

subpoena or court order.

The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the Party who caused the 

subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all the material covered by the subpoena 

or order is the subject of this Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must deliver a copy of 

this Stipulated Protective Order promptly to the Party in the other action that caused the subpoena or

order to issue.

The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties to the existence 

of this Protective Order and to afford the Designating Party in this case an opportunity to try to 

protect its confidentiality interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued. The 

Designating Party shall bear the burdens and the expenses of seeking protection in that court of its 

confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing or 

encouraging a Receiving Party in this action to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

9. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL.

If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected 

Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective Order, 

the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized 

disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the 

person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, and (d) 

request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is 

attached hereto as Exhibit A.

10. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION

If a party through inadvertence produces or provides discovery which it believes is 

subject to a claim of attorney-client privilege or work product immunity, upon discovery of the 

inadvertent production, the producing party may give written notice to the receiving party or parties 

that the documents or information are subject to a claim of attorney-client privilege or work product 

immunity, and request that the documents or information be returned to the producing party. The 

receiving party or parties shall promptly return to the producing party such documents or information.

Return of the documents or information by the receiving party shall not constitute an admission or 

concession, or permit any inference, that the documents or information are, in fact, properly subject to 

a claim of attorney-client privilege or work product immunity.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER - 12 -

CASE NO. C 05-004744 MMC

Designating Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party 

may not file in the public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under 

seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5.

12. FINAL DISPOSITION. Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the 

Producing Party, within sixty days after the final termination of this action, each Receiving Party must 

return all Protected Material to the Producing Party. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected 

Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other form of reproducing or 

capturing any of the Protected Material. With permission in writing from the Designating Party, the 

Receiving Party may destroy some or all of the Protected Material instead of returning it. Whether the 

Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to 

the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the sixty day 

deadline that identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned 

or destroyed and that affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, 

compilations, summaries or other forms of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material.

Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, 

motion papers, transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence or attorney work product, even if such 

materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected 

Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION), above.

13. MISCELLANEOUS.

13.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person 

to seek its modification by the Court in the future.

13.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Protective 

Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any 

information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no 

Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by 

this Protective Order.
