Plaintiff's need for disclosure, the Plaintiff's need for disclosure prevails as to documents that

reveal the nature of interpersonal work relationships at KMC between core physicians and others,

on-the-job behavior towards other members of KMC staff by core physicians, complaints against

core physicians regarding their behavior at KMC and the County's actions in response.

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED that documents produced in response to this Stipulation

shall be disclosed only to Plaintiff's legal counsel and retained experts and shall be kept separate

from all other files and documents in this action and clearly marked "Confidential Pursuant to

Protective Order." Upon the conclusion of this action, all such documents shall be returned to

Defendants or destroyed and Plaintiff shall not retain any copies. Defendants shall provide

Plaintiff with a written receipt for the returned documents or Plaintiff will provide Defendants with

written certification that the documents have been destroyed, respectively, and that receipt or

certification shall be conclusive proof of Plaintiff's compliance with the requirement that the

documents be returned to Defendants or destroyed.

The foregoing notwithstanding, the parties acknowledge that Plaintiff has filed a motion for

reconsideration of the above-referenced Order which challenges Judge Goldner's directive to the

parties to enter into this privacy-based protective order. Plaintiff's agreement to this stipulation is

therefore conditioned on such motion.
