Each party, through its respective outside counsel of record, and subject to the approval 

of the Court, agrees to the following procedures for the production of electronic source code: 

1. Microsoft, Lucent, and Alcatel-Lucent (each a “Producing Party”) shall make all 

produced source code available for inspection by the other parties to this litigation (each an 

“Inspecting Party”) as electronic source code. “Electronic source code” means the electronic 

version of source code in the form in which it is kept in the ordinary course of business by the 

owner, with directory structure, file structure, and version control information intact, to the 

extent such information exists. 

2. The Producing Parties shall make the electronic source code available for 

inspection on a secure computer located in a secure room at the following locations: 

 a. In the case of electronic source code produced by Microsoft, the secure 

computer shall be located at the San Diego office of Fish & Richardson P.C., 12390 El Camino 

Real, San Diego, CA 92130. 

 b. In the case of electronic source code produced by Lucent and AlcatelLucent, the secure computer shall be located at the New York office of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, 

153 East 53rd Street, New York, NY 10022. 

3. Each secure computer shall be configured as follows: 

 a. Each secure computer shall, at a minimum, include a color video monitor, 

a keyboard, a mouse, and an attached printer for printing electronic source code analyses. Each 

secure computer shall also have installed the standard Microsoft Windows XP installation, 

including the Wordpad and Notepad applications. The secure computer shall contain at a 

minimum an Intel Pentium family processor with a 500 megahertz or higher processor clock 

speed, 256 megabytes of RAM, and sufficient hard drive space to accommodate the Windows 

XP installation, the electronic source code, Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft SourceSafe. 

The Producing Party shall act in good faith to ensure that its secure computer is fully functional 

before any inspection. 

 b. Each secure computer shall have the electronic source code stored on a 

hard drive contained inside the secure computer.

 c. The Producing Party shall install Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft 

Source Safe on each secure computer. The Producing Party will also install a directory print 

tool, a file compare tool, and the following tools provided they may not be used to edit or alter 

the electronic source code: vim, ctags, and grep. All software will be installed by the Producing 

Party.

 d. The Inspecting Party shall be entitled to print any source code searches or 

analyses it may run on the secure computer using any installed software and take with it from the 

secure room any such printouts. All such printouts must be Bates labeled and marked 

“Confidential - Outside Counsel Only.” The Producing Party may not read, review, or keep a 

copy of any such printouts. Other than these searches and analyses, the Inspecting Party shall 

not print any electronic source code. 

 e. Each secure computer shall be configured so that no Producing Party or 

other party may monitor or determine, directly or indirectly, (i) the portions of source code 

viewed by the Inspecting Party or (ii) the parameters or results of any searches or analyses 

performed by the Inspecting Party. 

 f. Each secure computer shall be configured so that it will be unable to send 

or receive email, and shall not have the ability to copy documents or information to a location 

outside the secure computer, except for the printing of electronic source code searches and 

analyses per paragraph 3.d. The Inspecting Party shall not attempt to send or receive email from 

the secure computer, and shall not attempt to copy documents or information from the secure 

computer to a location outside the secure computer, except for the printing of electronic source 

code searches and analyses per paragraph 3.d. 

4. In the event that the Inspecting Party requests that the Producing Party produce 

portions of the electronic source code to the Inspecting Party, the Inspecting Party shall identify 

such portions to the Producing Party. If the requested portions constitute 3000 or fewer pages, 

the Producing Party shall provide to the Inspecting Party, within two business days of the day on 

which the code is requested, a CD-ROM or DVD containing in PDF format copies of the 

requested portions of the source code with production numbers. If the requested portions

requested copies at a rate of 3000 pages per business day (on a CD-ROM or DVD in PDF 

format) starting on the second business day following the day on which the request was made by 

the Inspecting Party. Any source code files or portions of files produced in PDF format shall 

include an identification (by trade name, version number, directory name, and file name) of the 

software to which the source code belongs. 

5. Each secure room shall be of reasonable size to accommodate comfortably six 

people, and shall include a conference table and seating for six people. 

6. The Producing Party shall have the right to lock its secure room when the 

Inspecting Party is not in it. 

7. Except for the Producing Party and its authorized representatives, only Outside 

Litigation Counsel and Authorized Experts of the parties shall have access (as detailed in 

paragraph 9) to each secure room and the electronic source code contained on each secure 

computer. Outside Litigation Counsel and Authorized Experts shall only have access to each 

secure room and the electronic source code contained on each secure computer for the purposes 

of this litigation and shall not use the electronic source code for any other purpose. The 

Inspecting Party shall not be allowed to bring into the room any electronic storage media that is 

capable of being used to retrieve and store the electronic source code, including cameras. The 

Inspecting Party may, however, bring into, and use in, the secure room cell phones (including 

cell phones containing a built-in camera), Blackberries, laptops, or other similar devices. The 

Inspecting Party shall not take photographs of any electronic source code. 

8. The Inspecting Party must submit a current sign-in/sign-out log by email to the 

Producing Party within one day after the inspection of the secure computer takes place 

identifying the date and the names of all person who inspected the secure computer on that date. 

9. Each Inspecting Party may designate up to a total of five (5) Authorized Experts 

to access and use the Producing Party’s secure room and electronic source code, provided, 

however, that no more than one Authorized Expert accesses the secure room and electronic 

source code at a time. Only those outside experts or consultants of an Inspecting Party who are

permitted to review OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY information under the requirements of the 

Stipulated Protective Order entered by the Court on December 12, 2006, may be designated to 

serve as Authorized Experts. Any such outside expert or consultant who will be designated to 

serve as an Authorized Expert must sign the Confidentiality Agreement attached as Exhibit A 

hereto before accessing any electronic source code stored on a Producing Party’s secure 

computer. A copy of each signed Confidentiality Agreement shall be filed with the Court and 

served on the other parties. Upon filing and service of a signed Confidentiality Agreement, the 

outside expert or consultant shall be an Authorized Expert authorized to access each secure room 

and inspect the electronic source code stored on each secure computer. Notwithstanding the 

foregoing, any expert may review and continue to review any source code produced by a 

Producing Party from the secure computer in PDF format without signing the Confidentiality 

Agreement attached as Exhibit A, provided that such expert has complied with the provisions of 

the Stipulated Protective Order entered by the Court on December 12, 2006. 

10. The Inspecting Party’s Outside Litigation Counsel and its Authorized Expert shall 

be entitled to inspect each secure computer and the electronic source code stored thereon during 

normal business hours, 9 A.M. to 6 P.M. local time, Monday through Friday (excluding 

holidays), and other days and/or times upon reasonable request. The Inspecting Party shall 

provide the Producing Party with at least 11⁄2 business days’ notice by email and facsimile to a 

designated representative(s) that it will be sending its Authorized Expert and/or Outside 

Litigation Counsel to review the electronic source code stored on the Producing Party’s secure 

computer, including identification of any such persons. 

11. No Producing Party or other party (including any of their employees, attorneys, 

agents, or anyone else acting on their behalf) may be present in the secure room during any 

inspection by the Inspecting Party’s authorized representatives, and the secure room shall be free 

of any listening or recording devices. 

12. At the start of each secure computer inspection, each Producing Party shall 

provide the Inspecting Party with an up-to-date index of the electronic source code that is stored 

on its secure computer, unless no new source code has been added to the source code computer,

in which case the Producing Party shall so advise the Inspecting Party. The index shall identify 

by trade name and version number each piece of software whose source code is stored on the 

secure computer, and for each such piece of software shall identify the directories on the secure 

computer in which the corresponding source code may be found. At the start of each secure 

computer inspection, each Producing Party shall also provide the Inspecting Party with an up-todate list of all software installed by the Producing Party on its secure computer. The Producing 

Party shall not remove any source code or software from its secure computer during the 

pendency of this litigation (including any appeals). 

13. All electronic source code shall be designated as “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” 

under the Stipulated Protective Order entered by the Court on December 12, 2006. Access to the 

secure room or any electronic source code shall be limited to Outside Litigation Counsel and 

Authorized Experts only. Except for the Producing Party, none of parties’ in-house counsel or 

patent prosecution counsel may have access to any secure room or any electronic source code 

stored on any secure computer. 

14. Each Producing Party shall make its secure computer containing its electronic 

source code available at trial and at depositions of persons authorized to review the source code, 

but the Inspecting Party must give the Producing Party at least five business days’ notice by 

email and facsimile to a designated representative(s) that it would like the secure computer made 

available at trial or at a deposition. 

15. This Order is subject to further court order based upon public policy or other 

considerations and the Court may modify this Order sua sponte in the interests of justice. 

16. Any Lucent expert otherwise subject to a Confidentiality Agreement Concerning 

Production of Electronic Source Code pursuant to the provisions of the November 14, 2005 

Stipulated Protective Order in Case No. 02-CV-2060 B (CAB) is hereby released from Paragraph 

1 of that Agreement, and any restrictions imposed by Paragraph 1 are hereby extinguished. 

Further, Microsoft agrees that it will not seek to enforce the provisions of Paragraph 1 against 

any Lucent signatory.
