CASE NO. 14-CV-03926-HSG 3. STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER WITH 

CLAWBACK AGREEMENT

Plaintiff TYWAIN WILLIS (“Plaintiff”) and Defendants AVIS BUDGET GROUP, 

INC., AVIS BUDGET CAR RENTAL, LLC, and AB CAR RENTAL SERVICES, INC. 

(“Defendants”) (collectively with Plaintiff as the “Parties”) agree to the following procedures to 

protect confidential, proprietary or private information. 

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 may be warranted. Accordingly, 

the Parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the following Stipulated Protective 

Order. 

The Parties agree to produce such documents only on the agreement that such 

“CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items will be disclosed only as provided herein. 

The Parties have agreed to stipulate to protect certain privileged and otherwise 

protected documents, data (including electronically stored information) and other information, 

including without limitation, metadata, against claims of waiver and inadvertent production in the 

event they are produced during the course of this litigation whether pursuant to a Court Order, a 

party’s discovery request or informal production.

The Parties wish to comply with discovery deadlines and complete discovery as 

expeditiously as possible, while preserving and without waiving any evidentiary protections or 

privileges applicable to the information contained in the Discovery Material produced, including as 

against third parties and other federal and state proceedings, and in addition to their agreement, need 

the additional protections of a court order under Federal Rule of Evidence (“FRE”) 502(d) and (e) to 

do so. 

In order to comply with applicable discovery deadlines, a party may be required to 

produce certain categories of Discovery Material that have been subject to minimal or no attorney 

review. This Stipulated Protective Order is designed to foreclose any arguments that by making 

such Disclosure, the disclosure or production of Discovery Material subject to a legally recognized 

claim of privilege, including without limitation the attorney-client privilege, work-product doctrine,

or other applicable privilege: 

(a) was not inadvertent by the Producing Party; 

(b) that the Producing Party did not take reasonable steps to prevent the disclosure 

of privileged Protected Material

(c) that the Producing Party did not take reasonable or timely steps to rectify such 

Disclosure; and/or 

(d) that such disclosure acts as a waiver of applicable privileges or protections 

associated with such Discovery Material. 

Because the purpose of this Stipulated Protective Order is to protect and preserve 

privileged Discovery Material, the Parties agree they are bound as follows from and after the date 

their counsel have signed it, even if such execution occurs prior to Court approval. 

The Parties seek the entry of an Order, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 

(“FRCP”) 26(c), governing the disclosure of documents and information therein pertaining to 

“CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items on the terms set forth herein, as well as an Order, pursuant 

to FRE 502, governing the return of inadvertently produced Protected Material and data and 

affording them the protections of FRE 502(d) and (e), on the terms set forth herein. The Parties 

acknowledge that this Stipulated Protective Order does not confer blanket protections on all 

disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use 

extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the 

applicable legal principles. The Parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that 

this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; 

Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be 

applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

2. DEFINITIONS

2.1 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation of 

information or items under this Order.

2.2 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items (“Confidential Information”): information

applicable privilege whether or not designated as “CONFIDENTIAL”.

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

Producing Party.

3. SCOPE

This Stipulated Protective Order will be entered pursuant to FRCP 26(c) and FRE 502. The 

protections conferred by this Stipulated Protective Order cover not only Protected Material and 

Confidential Information (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from 

the same; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of the same; and (3) any testimony, 

conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal the same. However, the 

protections conferred by this Stipulated Protective Order do not cover the following information: (a) 

any information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a Receiving Party or 

becomes part of the public domain after its disclosure to a Receiving Party as a result of publication 

not involving a violation of this Stipulated Protective Order, including becoming part of the public 

record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the 

disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who obtained the 

information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating Party. Any use of 

Protected Material and/or Confidential Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or 

order.

4. DURATION

Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this 

Stipulated Protective Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in 

writing or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) 

dismissal of all claims and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment 

herein after the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of 

this action, including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time 

pursuant to applicable law.

CASE NO. 14-CV-03926-HSG 7. STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER WITH 

CLAWBACK AGREEMENT

Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Stipulated Protective Order 

must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate 

standards. The Designating Party must 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 Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for 

protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating 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 Stipulated 

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

ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Stipulated 

Protective Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.

Designation in conformity with this Stipulated Protective Order requires:

(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but 

excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party 

affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to 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) when 

feasible.

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 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 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 Stipulated 

Protective Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix 

the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains Confidential Information and/or Protected 

Material when feasible. 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).

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

Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other 

proceeding, all protected 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.” If only a 

portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent 

practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).

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

designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s 

right to secure protection under this Stipulated Protective Order for such material. Upon timely 

correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the 

material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of 

confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality 

designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, 

or a 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.

CLAWBACK AGREEMENT

6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process 

by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each 

challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must 

recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph 

of the Stipulated Protective Order. The Parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith 

and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of 

communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. 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 or establishes that the Designating Party is 

unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.

6.3 Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court 

intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under Civil 

Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) within 21 days of the 

initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the Parties agreeing that the meet and confer process 

will not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a 

competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer 

requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to make such a 

motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall 

automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the 

Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is 

good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any 

portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a 

competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer 

requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

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

Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose 

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. 

Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to 

retain confidentiality as described above, 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 until the court 

rules on the challenge.

7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND/OR PROTECTED 

MATERIAL

7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Confidential Information and Protected 

Material that is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 

case only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Confidential 

Information and Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 

conditions described in this Stipulated Protective Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a 

Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

Confidential Information and/or 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 Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the 

information for this litigation;

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

Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation;

(c) Experts (as defined in this Stipulated Protective Order) of the Receiving Party to 

whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the 

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A),

deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material and/or Confidential 

Information must be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone 

except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and 

(h) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a custodian or 

other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information.

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL AND/OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION SUBPOENAED

before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has 

obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and 

expense 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. A NON-PARTY’S CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND/OR PROTECTED 

MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

(a) The terms of this Stipulated Protective Order are applicable to information 

produced by a Non-Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information 

produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief 

provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party 

from seeking additional protections. 

(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce a 

Non-Party’s Confidential Information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement with 

the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s Confidential Information, then the Party shall: 

(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that 

some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party;

(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective 

Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of 

the information requested; and 

(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party. 

(c) If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court within 

14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce the 

Non-Party’s Confidential Information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely 

seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or 

control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by 

the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of 

seeking protection in this court of its Confidential Information.

CLAWBACK AGREEMENT

10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND/OR 

PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

Information and/or 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 unauthorized 

copies of the Confidential Information and/or Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to 

whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Stipulated Protective Order, and 

(d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” 

that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

11. CLAWBACK AGREEMENT

Pursuant to FRE 502(d) and (e), the Parties agree to and the Court orders protection 

of privileged and otherwise Protected Material against claims of waiver (including as against third 

parties and in other federal and state proceedings) as follows: 

(a) The inadvertent disclosure or production of Protected Material by a Producing 

Party subject to a legally recognized claim of privilege, including without limitation the attorneyclient privilege and the work-product doctrine, to a Receiving Party, shall in no way constitute the 

voluntary disclosure of such Protected Material.

(b) The inadvertent disclosure or production of any Protected Material this action 

shall not result in the waiver of any privilege, evidentiary protection or other protection associated 

with such Discovery Material as to the Receiving Party or any third parties, and shall not result in 

any waiver, including subject matter waiver, of any kind.

(c) If, during the course of this litigation, a Party determines that any Discovery 

Material produced by another party is or may reasonably be subject to a legally recognizable 

privilege or evidentiary protection:

(i) The Receiving Party shall: (A) refrain from reading the Protected 

Material any more closely than is necessary to ascertain that it is privileged or otherwise protected 

from disclosure; (B) immediately notify the Producing Party in writing that it has discovered

Documents believed to be privileged or protected; (C) specifically identify the Protected Materials 

by Bates number range or hash value; and, (D) within ten (10) court days of discovery by the 

Receiving Party, return, sequester, or destroy all copies of such Protected Materials, along with any 

notes, abstracts or compilations of the content thereof; and (E) within 2 court days of taking the 

actions identified in subpart (D) above, notify the producing Party of the action taken. To the extent 

that Protected Material has been loaded into a litigation review database under the control of the 

Receiving Party, the Receiving Party shall have all electronic copies of the Protected Document 

extracted from the database. Where such Protected Materials cannot be extracted, destroyed, or 

separated, they shall not be reviewed, disclosed, or otherwise used by the Receiving Party. 

Notwithstanding, the Receiving Party is under no obligation to search or review the Producing 

Party’s Discovery Material to identify potentially privileged or work product Protected Materials.

(ii) If the Producing Party intends to assert a claim of privilege or other 

protection over Documents identified by the Receiving Party as Protected Materials, the Producing 

Party will, within ten (10) court days of receiving the Receiving Party’s written notification 

described above that identifies the Protected Material by Bates number ,or hash value if no Bates 

number, inform the Receiving Party of such intention in writing and shall provide the Receiving 

Party with a log for such Protected Material that is consistent with the requirements of the Federal 

Rules of Civil Procedure, setting forth the basis for the claim of privilege or other protection. In the 

event that any portion of a Protected Material does not contain privileged or protected information, 

the Producing Party shall also provide to the Receiving Party a redacted copy of the document that 

omits the information that the Producing Party believes is subject to a claim of privilege or other 

protection. The Producing Party may seek more time if the volume of data or documents is 

substantial.

(d) If, during the course of this litigation, a Party determines it has produced one 

or more Protected Material:

(i) The Producing Party may notify the Receiving Party of such 

inadvertent production in writing, and demand the return of such material. Such notice shall be in 

writing, however, it may be delivered orally on the record at a deposition, promptly followed up in

writing. The Producing Party’s written notice will identify the Protected Material inadvertently 

produced by bates number range or hash value, the privilege or protection claimed, and the basis for 

the assertion of the privilege and shall provide the Receiving Party with a log for such Protected 

Material that is consistent with the requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, setting 

forth the basis for the claim of privilege or other protection. In the event that any portion of the 

Protected Material does not contain privileged or protected information, the Producing Party shall 

also provide to the Receiving Party a redacted copy of the document that omits the information that 

the Producing Party believes is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection. 

(ii) The Receiving Party must, within five (5) court days of receiving the 

Producing Party’s written notification described above, return, sequester, or destroy the Protected 

Material and any copies, along with any notes, abstracts or compilations of the content thereof. 

Destruction shall mean deletion of documents from all databases, applications, and/or file systems in 

a manner such that they are not readily accessible without the use of specialized tools or techniques 

typically used by a forensic expert. To the extent that Protected Material has been loaded into a 

litigation review database under the control of the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party shall have all 

electronic copies of the Protected Material extracted from the database. Where such Protected 

Materials cannot be extracted, destroyed or separated, they shall not be reviewed, disclosed, or 

otherwise used by the Receiving Party. 

(e) To the extent that the information contained in Protected Material has already 

been used in or described in other documents generated or maintained by the Receiving Party prior 

to the date of receipt of written notice by the Producing Party as set forth in paragraphs (c)(ii) and 

d(i), then the Receiving Party shall sequester such documents until the claim has been resolved. If 

the Receiving Party disclosed the Protected Material before being notified of its inadvertent 

production, it must take reasonable steps to retrieve it and notify the Producing Party of the identities 

of the person(s) to whom the disclosure was made. To the extent the identity of these person(s) is 

protected by work product privilege, the Receiving Party may initially disclose the general nature of 

the person(s) (e.g., “consultant regarding data analysis”); however, the Producing Party retains the 

right to seek the name(s) of such persons should it have a reasonable basis to believe that

confidential information from a Protected Document that was inadvertently produced and clawed 

back pursuant to this Order was disclosed and the identity of the person(s) who violated this Order is 

unknown. The court retains the power to order the disclosure of the identity of such persons upon

motion requesting such relief.

(f) The Receiving Party’s return, sequestering or destruction of Protected 

Material as provided herein will not act as a waiver of the Requesting Party’s right to move for the 

production of the returned, sequestered or destroyed documents on the grounds that the documents 

are not, in fact, subject to a viable claim of privilege or protection. However, the Receiving Party is 

prohibited and estopped from arguing that:

(i) the disclosure or production of the Protected Materials acts as a 

waiver of an applicable privilege or evidentiary protection; 

(ii) the disclosure of the Protected Materials was not inadvertent;

(iii) the Producing Party did not take reasonable steps to prevent the 

disclosure of the Protected Materials; or

(iv) the Producing Party failed to take reasonable or timely steps to rectify 

the error pursuant to FRCP 26(b)(5)(B), or otherwise.

(g) In accordance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, either party may submit Protected 

Materials to the Court under seal for a determination of the claim of privilege or other protection. 

The Producing Party shall preserve the Protected Materials until such claim is resolved. The 

Receiving Party may not use the Protected Materials for any purpose absent this Court’s Order.

(h) Upon a determination by the Court that the Protected Materials are protected 

by the applicable privilege or evidentiary protection, and if the Protected Materials have been 

sequestered rather than returned or destroyed by the Receiving Party, the Protected Materials shall 

be returned or destroyed within five (5) court days of the Court’s order. The Court may also order 

the identification by the Receiving Party of Protected Materials by search terms or other means.

(i) Nothing contained herein is intended to, or shall serve to limit a party’s right 

to conduct a review of documents, data (including electronically stored information) and other 

information, including without limitation, metadata, for relevance, responsiveness and/or the

segregation of privileged and/or protected information before such information is produced to 

another party.

(j) By operation of the Parties’ agreement and Court Order, the Parties are 

specifically afforded the protections of FRE 502 (d) and (e).

12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Stipulated Protective Order abridges the right 

of any person to seek its modification by the court in the future.

12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Stipulated 

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 Stipulated Protective Order.

12.3 Filing Confidential Information and/or Protected Material. Without written 

permission from the 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 Confidential 

Information and/or Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Confidential 

Information and/or Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Confidential 

Information and/or Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order 

authorizing the sealing of the specific Confidential Information and/or Protected Material at issue. 

Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the 

Confidential Information and/or Protected Material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade 

secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a Receiving Party's request to file 

Confidential Information and/or Protected Material under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) 

is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public record 

pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed by the court.

12.4 Information Security Protections. Any person in possession of another Party's 

Confidential Information and/or Protected Material shall maintain a written information security 

program that includes reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to

protect the security and confidentiality of such Confidential Information and/or Protected Material, 

protect against any reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to the security of such Confidential 

Information and/or Protected Material, and protect against unauthorized access to or use of such 

Confidential Information and/or Protected Material. To the extent a person or party does not have an 

information security program they may comply with this provision by having the Confidential 

Information and/or Protected Material managed by and/or stored with eDiscovery vendors or claims 

administrators that maintain such an information security program.

If the Receiving Party discovers a breach of security, including any actual or suspected 

unauthorized access, relating to another Party's Confidential Information and/or Protected Material, 

the Receiving Party shall: (1) promptly provide written notice to Designating Party of such breach; 

(2) investigate and take reasonable efforts to remediate the effects of the breach, and provide 

Designating Party with assurances reasonably satisfactory to Designating Party that such breach 

shall not recur; and (3) provide sufficient information about the breach that the Designating Party 

can reasonably ascertain the size and scope of the breach. If required by any judicial or 

governmental request, requirement or order to disclose such information, the Receiving Party shall 

take all reasonable steps to give the Designating Party sufficient prior notice in order to contest such 

request, requirement or order through legal means. The Receiving Party agrees to cooperate with 

the Designating Party or law enforcement in investigating any such security incident. In any event, 

the Receiving Party shall promptly take all necessary and appropriate corrective action to terminate 

the unauthorized access. 

13. FINAL DISPOSITION

Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4, each 

Receiving Party must return all Confidential Information and/or Protected Material to the Producing 

Party or destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Confidential Information and/or 

Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format 

reproducing or capturing any of the Confidential Information and/or Protected Material. Whether 

the Confidential Information and/or 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 Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not 

retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing 

any of the Confidential Information and/or Protected Material. Notwithstanding the above:

(a) Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, 

trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial 

exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such 

materials contain Confidential Information and/or Protected Material. Any such archival copies that 

contain or constitute Confidential Information and/or Protected Material remain subject to this 

Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION).

(b) If any information or items designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” and produced 

by another Party or Non-Party has been loaded into any litigation review database, the attorney for 

the party using such database shall have the responsibility of ensuring that all such information 

(including all associated images and native files) is extracted from such databases (including any 

associated staging databases) and destroyed. “Destroyed” shall mean deletion of documents from all 

databases, applications and/or file systems in a manner such that they are not readily accessible 

without the use of specialized tools or techniques typically used by a forensic expert. 

(c) The Parties, counsel of record for the Parties, and experts or consultants for a 

Party shall not be required to return or to destroy any information or items designated as 

“CONFIDENTIAL” to the extent such information is (i) stored on media that is generally considered 

not reasonably accessible, such as disaster recovery backup tapes, or (ii) only retrievable through the 

use of specialized tools or techniques typically used by a forensic expert; provided that to the extent 

any such information is not returned or destroyed due to the foregoing reasons, such information or 

items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” shall remain subject to the confidentiality 

obligations of this Stipulated Protective Order.

IT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD.
