requests leave of the Court to file the following documents under seal in their entireties: 

• Exhibits B, D and E to the Declaration of Mark A. Saab in Support of Plaintiffs’ 

Opposition to Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss or Transfer 

Said documents were received from opposing party Quest Medical, Inc. (or its predecessor in 

interest) (collectively “Quest”) after the parties signed a confidentiality agreement (CDA) and Quest 

may assert that these documents are confidential. Accordingly, Acclarent submits them for filing

to file under seal portions of the following documents: 

• Declaration of Mark A. Saab In Support of Plaintiffs’ Opposition to Defendants’ 

Motion to Dismiss or Transfer. 

• Plaintiffs’ Opposition to Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss, or in the Alternative, to 

Transfer 

Specifically, Acclarent requests leave to file under seal the portions of these documents that 

cite the Quest information in the Exhibits B, D, and E described above and being submitted for filing 

under seal in their entireties. As required by Civil Local Rule 79-5(c), Acclarent is lodging with the 

Clerk copies of these documents which the confidential information has been highlighted (for filing 

under seal) and redacted (for public filing).
