manner, subject to the supervision of the Court, to protect Designated QUALCOMM Material 

from disclosure to persons not authorized to have access to such Designated QUALCOMM 

Material. Any Party intending to disclose or discuss Designated QUALCOMM Material at 

pretrial or trial proceedings must give advance notice to the Producing Party to assure the 

implementation of the terms of this Supplemental Protective Order. 

E. Access By Outside Consultants 

31. Notice. If a Receiving Party wishes to disclose Designated QUALCOMM 

Material to any Outside Consultant, Receiving Party must, prior to the Outside Consultant 

being granted access to any Designated QUALCOMM Material, provide notice to counsel for 

Non-Party QUALCOMM, which notice shall include: (a) the individual’s name and business 

title; (b) business address; (c) business or profession; (d) the individual’s CV; (e) any previous 

or current relationship (personal or professional) with Non-Party QUALCOMM or any of the 

Parties to this action; (f) a list of other cases in which the individual has testified (at trial or 

deposition) within the last six years; (g) a list of all companies with which the individual has

Supplemental Protective Order Governing Confidential Information of Non-Party Qualcomm 

In This Case,” attached as Exhibit A, and the “Certification Of Consultant Re Supplemental 

Protective Order Governing Confidential Information of Non-Party Qualcomm In This Case,” 

attached hereto as Exhibit B, that have both been signed by that Outside Consultant. 

32. Objections. With respect to Outside Consultants that have not been previously 

disclosed to Non-Party QUALCOMM, Non-Party QUALCOMM shall have five (5) business 

days, starting from the first business day following the date upon which Receiving Party 

provides the notice and all information required by paragraph 31 to the Producing Party, to 

object for good cause in writing to such disclosure (plus three (3) extra days if notice is given 

in any manner other than by hand delivery, e-mail delivery or facsimile transmission). After 

the expiration of the 5 business days (plus 3-days, if appropriate) period, if no objection for 

good cause has been asserted by Non-Party QUALCOMM, then Designated QUALCOMM 

Material may be disclosed to the Outside Consultant pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental 

Protective Order. Any objection by Non-Party QUALCOMM must be made for good cause, 

and must set forth in detail the grounds on which it is based. Should Receiving Party disagree 

with the basis for the objection(s), Receiving Party must first attempt to resolve the 

objection(s) informally with Non-Party QUALCOMM. If the informal efforts do not resolve 

the dispute within five (5) business days from the date upon which Receiving Party was first 

notified of any objection for good cause by Non-Party QUALCOMM, Receiving Party may 

file a motion requesting that the objection(s) be quashed after that five (5) day period has 

passed. Non-Party Qualcomm shall have the burden of proof by a preponderance of the 

evidence on the issue of the sufficiency of the objection(s). Pending a ruling by the Court upon

Schematics to be made except for directly onto the watermarked and 

numbered sides of the paper provided by the Producing Party. 

Additionally, the Receiving Party may not print any continuous block of 

source code that results in more than 50 consecutive printed pages, 

except that Authorized Reviewer(s) may request the printing of a 

continuous block of more than 50 pages, which request shall not be 

unreasonably denied by the Producing Party. Counsel for the Producing 

Party will keep the original printouts, and shall provide copies of such 

original printouts to counsel for the Receiving Party within four (4) 

business days of (1) any request by the Receiving Party, or (2) otherwise 

being notified that such original printouts have been made or designated.

noted in subparagraph 33 (i) below. No additional electronic copies of 

the Source Code or Chip-Level Schematics shall be provided by the 

Producing Party. Hard copies of the Source Code or Chip-Level 

Schematics also may not be converted into an electronic document, and 

may not be scanned using optical character recognition (“OCR”) 

technology, except as needed for inclusion in pleadings, exhibits, 

demonstratives, expert reports, discovery documents, or other Court 

documents filed with the Court, and drafts thereof, as provided in 

Section 33(g). Only printouts of Source Code and Chip-Level 

Schematics may be made, and such printouts must include (1) directory 

path information and filenames from which the Source Code and ChipLevel Schematics came and (2) line numbers. The Producing Party may

Chip-Level Schematics which have not been reviewed on the Source 

Code Computers, or in order to review the Source Code or Chip-Level 

Schematics elsewhere in the first instance, i.e., as an alternative to 

reviewing that Source Code or Chip-Level Schematics electronically on 

the Source Code Computers, as the Parties and QUALCOMM 

acknowledge and agree that the purpose of the protections herein would 

be frustrated by such actions.

purpose, which request shall not be unreasonably denied by the 

Producing Party. Except as approved by the Producing Party, longer 

excerpts shall not be copied for use in court documents but shall be 

referred to by citation to production page numbers and lines. A 

Receiving Party shall provide notice to Producing Party or its counsel 

for each occasion on which it submits portions of Designated Source

person in the first instance, and within thirty (30) days after the issuance 

of a final, non-appealable decision resolving all issues in this action, the 

Receiving Party must serve upon Non-Party QUALCOMM the log. In 

addition, any Outside Consultants of the Receiving Party to whom the 

paper copies of the QUALCOMM Source Code or Chip-Level 

Schematics were provided must certify in writing that all copies of the 

QUALCOMM Source Code or Chip-Level Schematics were destroyed 

or returned to the counsel who provided them the information and that 

they will make no use of the Source Code or Chip-Level Schematics, or 

of any knowledge gained from the source code in any future endeavor. 

G. Procedure for Designating Materials 

34. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Protective Order and in this 

Supplemental Protective Order, any Party or Non-Party QUALCOMM may: designate as

whole, to constitute “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – 

OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” information, and shall be subject to this Order. 

Thereafter, Non-Party QUALCOMM shall have seven (7) calendar days from the inspection to 

review and designate the appropriate documents as “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL 

BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” prior to furnishing 

copies to the Receiving Party. 

36. Designation in conformity with the Protective Order and this Supplemental 

Protective Order shall be made as follows: 

a. For information in documentary (including “electronically stored 

information”) form (apart from transcripts of depositions or other 

pretrial or trial proceedings): the Designating Party shall affix the 

legend “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION 

– OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “QUALCOMM 

CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE 

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE” 

conspicuously on each page that contains Designated QUALCOMM 

Material. 

 A party or non-party that makes original documents or materials 

available for inspection need not designate them for protection until after 

the Receiving Party has indicated which material it would like copied or 

produced. Before and during the inspection, all material made available 

for inspection shall be deemed “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL 

BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES

ONLY.” After the Receiving 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 

and, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party 

must affix the appropriate legend to each page that contains Designated 

QUALCOMM Material. 

b. For Testimony Given in Deposition: For deposition transcripts, the 

Designating Party shall specify any portions of the testimony that it has 

good cause to designate, by line and page number, no later than 20 

business days after the final transcript of the deposition has been 

received. The Party or Non-Party having good cause may identify the 

entirety of the transcript as “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL 

BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY” or “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS 

INFORMATION – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – 

CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE,” but all deposition transcripts not 

designated during the deposition will nonetheless be treated as 

“QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – 

OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “QUALCOMM 

CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE 

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE,” 

until the time within which it may be appropriately designated as 

provided for herein has passed. Any Designated QUALCOMM

Material that is used in the taking of a deposition shall remain subject to 

the provisions of this Supplemental Protective Order and the Protective 

Order in these actions, along with the transcript pages of the deposition 

testimony dealing with such Designated QUALCOMM Material. In 

such cases the court reporter shall be informed of this Supplemental 

Protective Order and shall be required to operate in a manner consistent 

with this Supplemental Protective Order. The court reporter must affix 

to the top of each transcript page containing Designated QUALCOMM 

Material the legend “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS

transcripts containing Designated Qualcomm Material made pursuant to 

this paragraph may be hosted electronically by the Receiving Party on 

any system inside the firewall of a law firm representing the Receiving 

Party, however, all other restrictions in this Supplemental Protective 

Order pertaining to Designated Source Code Material apply. In the 

event the deposition is videotaped, the original and all copies of the

testimony used in this case and is not to be viewed or the contents 

thereof to be displayed or revealed except pursuant to the terms of the 

operative protective orders in this matter or pursuant to written 

stipulation of the parties.” Counsel for any Designating Party shall have 

the right to exclude from oral depositions, other than the deponent, 

deponent’s counsel, and the reporter and videographer (if any), any 

person who is not authorized by the Protective Orders in this action to 

receive or access Protected Material based on the designation of such 

Protected Material. 

c. For information produced in some form other than documentary, and for 

any other tangible items, the Designating Party shall affix, in a 

prominent place on the exterior of the medium, container or containers 

in which the information or item is stored, the appropriate legend.

commercial purposes related to the particular technologies or information disclosed in the 

Designated QUALCOMM Material. Information contained or reflected in Designated 

QUALCOMM Material shall not be disclosed in conversations, presentations by parties or 

counsel, in court or in other settings that might reveal Designated QUALCOMM Material, 

except in accordance with the terms of the Protective Order or this Supplemental Protective 

Order. 

38. Use of Designated QUALCOMM Material by Non-Party QUALCOMM: 

Nothing in this Supplemental Protective Order shall limit Non-Party QUALCOMM’s use of its 

own documents and information, nor shall it prevent Non-Party QUALCOMM from disclosing 

its own confidential information, documents or things to any person. Such disclosure shall not 

affect any designations made pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental Protective Order, so 

long as the disclosure is made in a manner that is reasonably calculated to maintain the 

confidentiality of the information. 

39. Use of Designated QUALCOMM Material at Deposition: Non-Party 

QUALCOMM shall, on request prior to the deposition, make a searchable electronic copy of 

the QUALCOMM Source Code available on a stand-alone computer connected to a printer 

during depositions of QUALCOMM personnel otherwise permitted access to such Source 

Code. To the extent required, the party conducting the deposition may print additional pages 

of Source Code printouts to be marked as exhibits at such depositions consistent with other 

provisions and limitations of the Protective Order and this Supplemental Protective Order. 

Except as may be otherwise ordered by the Court, any person may be examined as a witness at

J. Designated QUALCOMM Material Subpoenaed or Ordered Produced In Other 

Litigation 

43. If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or a court order that would 

compel disclosure of any information, documents or things designated in this action as 

“QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ 

EYES ONLY” or “QUALCOMM CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION – 

OUTSIDE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY – CONFIDENTIAL SOURCE CODE,” Receiving 

Party must notify the Producing Party and Non-Party QUALCOMM of such information, 

documents or things, in writing (by fax and email) promptly, and in no event more than ten 

(10) calendar days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification must include a 

copy of the subpoena or order. Receiving Party also must immediately inform, in writing, the 

party who caused the subpoena or order to issue that some or all of the material covered by the 

subpoena or order is subject to this Supplemental Protective Order and the Protective Order. In 

addition, the Receiving Party must provide a copy of this Supplemental Protective Order and 

the 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 Supplemental Protective Order and the Protective Order, and to afford the Party whose 

Designated QUALCOMM Material in this case, is at issue in the other case, an opportunity to 

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

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

its Designated QUALCOMM Material. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as 

authorizing or encouraging any Receiving Party in this action to disobey a lawful directive 

from another court.

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

Designated QUALCOMM Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under 

this Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing Producing Party and 

Non-Party QUALCOMM of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all 

copies of the Designated QUALCOMM 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 By Supplemental 

Protective Order Governing Confidential Information of Non-Party Qualcomm In This Case” 

that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as 

limiting any Producing Party’s rights to seek remedies for a violation of this Supplemental 

Protective Order. 

L. Duration 

45. Even after the termination of this action, the confidentiality obligations imposed 

by this Supplemental Protective Order shall remain in effect following the termination of this 

action, or until Non-Party QUALCOMM agrees otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise 

directs. 

M. Final Disposition 

46. Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by Producing Party, within sixty 

(60) days of the termination of all of this action, whether through settlement or final judgment 

(including any and all appeals therefrom), each Receiving Party, including Outside Counsel for 

each Receiving Party, will destroy all Designated QUALCOMM Material produced by NonParty QUALCOMM or any other Party in this action and will destroy or redact any such 

Designated QUALCOMM Material included in work product, pleadings, motion papers, legal
