C 05-01589 PJH 

LA1 - 105607.01 

WHEREAS, the parties desire, by entering into this stipulation, to preserve 

the confidentiality of certain information made available by the parties; 

IT IS THEREFORE STIPULATED AND AGREED THAT: 

1. Any documents made available or produced by any of the parties, 

documents provided in response to discovery requests, electronic document or file, 

deposition testimony, written response to discovery, or other material produced or 

otherwise disclosed during this litigation (and any copies, summaries, or abstracts 

of such materials) relating to such documents, may be designated by the producing 

party as "CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL" within the confidentiality provisions of 

this Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement. 

2. No CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL shall be made public by the 

receiving party or divulged to anyone other than as set forth herein. 

3. A party producing CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL shall separately 

mark each page containing CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL with an appropriate 

legend, such as "Confidential Subject to Protective Order entered by United States 

District Court." If a document includes both CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL and 

non-confidential material, the party shall only mark those pages that include 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL. If a party inadvertently fails to mark a page of a 

document containing CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL at the time of production, it 

may correct its failure in writing, accompanied by substitute copies of each such 

item appropriately marked CONFIDENTIAL. 

4. CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL shall be treated by each receiving 

party as confidential unless and until the Court rules to the contrary or the 

designating party agrees otherwise. Unless and until the Court rules or the 

designating party otherwise agrees, and except as set forth in Paragraph 6 herein, 

access to or disclosure of CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL shall be limited to the 

following persons, subject to the qualification provisions of Paragraph 5:

(a) the Court and those employed by the Court, in which event such 

information shall be filed under seal (and kept under seal until 

further order of the Court); 

(b) each of the named parties to the litigation who have, through 

their respective counsel, signed this Stipulation (or who have 

accepted the terms of this Stipulation by their counsel's 

execution of Exhibit A hereto), including any representative of 

the party (officers, directors, partners, employees) assisting in 

the prosecution or the defense of the litigation, and such party's 

counsel, including the clerical, secretarial, and paralegal staff 

employed by such counsel; 

(c) court reporters and employees of court reporters engaged by 

counsel to record and transcribe testimony in this litigation, and 

translators engaged for any purpose in this litigation; 

(d) experts and consultants assisting in the prosecution or the 

defense of the litigation, plus their clerical and secretarial staff; 

and 

(e) persons from whom testimony is taken or is to be taken in the 

litigation, either in a deposition or at trial, provided that 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL may be disclosed to such 

persons only in preparation for, review of, or in the course of his 

or her testimony, and that such person not retain such 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL after his or her testimony is

concluded. 

5. Counsel desiring to qualify a person or persons to receive 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL under paragraph 4(c), 4(d) or 4(e) shall first obtain 

from each person a signed undertaking in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

6. Should any non-party serve a subpoena calling for the production of 

any CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL to any party or counsel for a party who has 

received such material, the subpoenaed party in such instance shall provide notice 

to the party that designated the material as confidential by promptly transmitting a 

copy of the subpoena via facsimile to the designating party. It shall be the 

obligation of the designating party, prior to the response date on the subpoena, to 

seek a protective order or any other appropriate relief from the Court if the 

designating party wishes to maintain the confidentiality of the material. A 

designating party that fails to seek judicial relief to preclude the disclosure of any 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL in response to a subpoena shall be deemed to have 

waived any claim of confidentiality with respect to such material. 

7. In the case of depositions, if counsel for a party believes that a portion 

or all of the deposition constitutes CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL, counsel may so 

state on the record and may request that the specific pages which include such 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL be included in a separate sealed portion of the 

transcript. The reporter, who shall first have agreed to abide by the terms of this 

Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement, shall be instructed to include on the 

cover page of each sealed portion the legend: "This transcript portion contains 

information subject to a Protective Order and shall be used only in accordance 

therewith."

8. When testimony designated as confidential is elicited during a 

deposition, persons not entitled to receive such information under the terms of this 

Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement shall be excluded from the deposition. 

Counsel attending a deposition who inadvertently fails to designate any portion of 

the transcript as CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL on the record at the deposition 

may do so within ten (10) court days following mailing of the transcript by the 

court reporter to that counsel. Such correction and notice thereof shall be made in 

writing to the reporter, with copies to all other counsel, designating the portion(s) of

the transcript that constitute CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL and directing the 

reporter to place the same under seal as provided in Paragraph 7 herein. 

9. In the event a party wishes to file any CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL 

with the Court for any purpose, the party shall comply with Judge Hamilton's 

Standing Order For Cases Involving Sealed or Confidential Documents. 

10. If a party fails to file information under seal, any person who in good 

faith believes that filing under seal is required to protect its interests may move to 

file the materials in accordance with Judge Hamilton's Standing Order For Cases 

Involving Sealed or Confidential Documents. 

11. Nothing in this Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement shall be 

construed as a waiver of the right of any party to object to the taking or the 

admissibility of any testimony or other evidence where such objection is based on a 

ground or grounds other than that the testimony or evidence involves 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL. 

12. The acceptance by a party of CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL shall not 

constitute an admission or concession or permit an inference that the 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL is, in fact, confidential. Should any other party 

object in good faith to such designation, that party may notify the designating party 

or parties in writing of such objection, specifying the basis thereof. The parties 

shall then negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve their dispute regarding the 

confidentiality of the subject materials. Should such meet-and-confer effort fail, the 

designating party may then apply to this Court for a protective order covering the 

designated information. Pursuant to Judge Hamilton's Standing Order For Cases 

Involving Sealed or Confidential Documents, the designating party shall bear the 

burden of establishing the confidentiality of any material designated as 

CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL. The information which is the subject of such 

dispute shall continue to be treated as confidential subject to this Stipulation and 

Confidentiality Agreement for a period of ten (10) court days following written

notice of objection unless a motion for a protective order is filed within that time, in 

which case the information shall be treated as confidential pending the outcome of 

such motion. In the absence of such a motion, the documents or information shall 

not be treated as confidential upon the expiration of (10) court days after written 

notice of objection. 

13. This Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement shall not prevent a 

party from applying to the Court for relief therefrom, or from applying to the Court 

for further or additional protective orders. 

14. Nothing in this Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement shall 

preclude any person or entity from disclosing or using, in any manner or for any 

purpose, any information or document if that information or document is lawfully 

obtained from a third party under no obligations of confidentiality with respect 

thereto and having the right to disclose such information. 

15. Pursuant to Judge Hamilton's Standing Order For Cases Involving 

Sealed or Confidential Documents, in the event that this litigation proceeds to trial, 

all of the information that has been designated as CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL 

and/or kept and maintained pursuant to the terms of this Stipulation and 

Confidentiality Agreement will become public and will be presumptively available 

to all members of the public, including the press, absent a showing of "most 

compelling" reasons as to why the information should remain confidential. 

16. The restrictions on use of CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL set forth in 

this Stipulation and Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the conclusion of this 

litigation and, after conclusion of this litigation, the Court shall exercise limited 

jurisdiction for the purpose of enforcing this Stipulation and Confidentiality 

Agreement. 

17. In the event a party or third party which designates CONFIDENTIAL 

MATERIAL fails to satisfy a judgment against it rendered in this action or declares 

bankruptcy, that party's designation as CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL as to any
