STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 

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 would be warranted.

Winston & Strawn LLP 

101 California Street 

San Francisco, CA 94111-5802 

Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated 

Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on 

all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords extends only to the 

limited information or items that are entitled under the applicable legal principles to treatment as 

confidential. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 10, below, that this Stipulated 

Protective Order creates no entitlement to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 

79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and reflects the standards that will be applied 

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

2. DEFINITIONS

2.1 Party: any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors, 

employees, consultants, retained experts, and outside counsel (and their support staff). 

2.2 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the 

medium or manner generated, stored, or maintained (including, among other things, testimony, 

transcripts, or tangible things) that are produced or generated in disclosures or responses to discovery 

in this matter. 

2.3 “Confidential” Information or Items: information (regardless of how generated, 

stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection under standards developed under 

F.R.Civ.P. 26(c). 

2.4 “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” Information or Items: extremely 

sensitive “Confidential Information or Items” whose disclosure to another Party or nonparty would 

create a substantial risk of serious injury that could not be avoided by less restrictive means. 

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

Producing Party. 

2.6 Producing Party: a Party or non-party that produces Disclosure or Discovery 

Material in this action. 

2.7 Designating Party: a Party or non-party that designates information or items 

that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential 

— Attorneys’ Eyes Only.”

San Francisco, CA 94111-5802 

2.8 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is designated as 

“Confidential” or as “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only.” 

2.9 Outside Counsel: attorneys who are not employees of a Party but who are 

retained to represent or advise a Party in this action. 

2.10 House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a Party. “House Counsel” 

does not include Michael Arrington. 

2.11 Counsel (without qualifier): Outside Counsel and House Counsel (as well as 

their support staffs). 

2.12 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a 

matter pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as an expert 

witness or as a consultant in this action and who is not a past or a current employee of a Party or of a 

competitor of a Party’s and who, at the time of retention, is not anticipated to become an employee of 

a Party or a competitor of a Party’s. This definition includes a professional jury or trial consultant 

retained in connection with this litigation. 

2.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support 

services (e.g., photocopying; videotaping; translating; preparing exhibits or demonstrations; 

organizing, storing, retrieving data in any form or medium; etc.) and their employees and 

subcontractors. 

3. SCOPE

The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected Material (as 

defined above), but also any information copied or extracted therefrom, as well as all copies, excerpts, 

summaries, or compilations thereof, plus testimony, conversations, or presentations by parties or 

counsel to or in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material. 

4. DURATION

Even after the termination of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this 

Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order 

otherwise directs.

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each 

Party or non-party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care 

to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. A 

Designating Party must take care to 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 Party’s or a non-party’s attention that information or items that it 

designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, or do not qualify for the level of 

protection initially asserted, that Party or non-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 

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

material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material 

is disclosed or produced. 

Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 

(a) for information in documentary form (apart from transcripts of 

depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend 

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” on 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) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection being

asserted (either “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY”). 

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 “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” 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 Order, then, before producing the specified documents, the 

Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”) on 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) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection being asserted (either 

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”). 

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

that the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony identify on the record, before the 

close of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony, and further specify any 

portions of the testimony that qualify as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY.” When it is impractical to identify separately each portion of testimony that is entitled to 

protection, and when it appears that substantial portions of the testimony may qualify for protection, 

the Party or non-party that sponsors, offers, or gives the testimony may invoke on the record (before 

the deposition or proceeding is concluded) a right to have up to 20 days to identify the specific 

portions of the testimony as to which protection is sought and to specify the level of protection being 

asserted (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”). 

Only those portions of the testimony that are appropriately designated for protection within the 20 

days shall be covered by the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.

SF:274131.2

Winston & Strawn LLP 

101 California Street 

San Francisco, CA 94111-5802 

Transcript pages containing Protected Material must be separately bound by 

the court reporter, who must affix on each such page the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” as instructed by the Party or nonparty offering 

or sponsoring the witness or presenting the 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” or 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” If only portions of the information 

or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 

portions, specifying whether they qualify as “Confidential” or as “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ 

Eyes Only.” 

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

designate qualified information or items as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes 

Only” does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this 

Order for such material. If material is appropriately designated as “Confidential” or “Highly 

Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” after the material was initially produced, the Receiving Party, on 

timely notification of the designation, must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is 

treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order. 

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

6.1 Timing of Challenges. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s 

confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable substantial unfairness, unnecessary 

economic burdens, or a later 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. 

6.2 Meet and Confer. A Party that elects to initiate a challenge to a Designating 

Party’s confidentiality designation must do so in good faith and must begin the process by conferring 

directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) with counsel for 

the Designating Party. 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. 

6.3 Judicial Intervention. A Party that elects to press a challenge to a 

confidentiality designation after considering the justification offered by the Designating Party may file 

and serve a motion under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if 

applicable) that identifies the challenged material and sets forth in detail the basis for the challenge. 

Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration that affirms that the movant has 

complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the precedi

ng paragraph and that sets 

forth with specificity the justification for the confidentiality designation that was given by the 

Designating Party in the meet and confer dialogue. 

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

Party. Until the court rules on the challenge, 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. 

7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use 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 Protected Material may be 

disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the 

litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 11, below 

(FINAL DISPOSITION). 

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:

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

“Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A);

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound 

by Protective Order” (Exhibit A); 

(d) the Court and its personnel; 

(e) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation; 

(f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is

(g) the author of the document or the original source of the information. 

7.3 Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” 

Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the

as employees of said Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this 

litigation;

(d) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation; and 

(e) the author of the document or the original source of the information. 

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN 

OTHER LITIGATION. 

If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or an order issued in other litigation that would 

compel disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” the Receiving Party must so notify 

the Designating Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) immediately and in no event more than three 

court days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification must include a copy of the 

subpoena or court order. 

The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the Party who caused the 

subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all the material covered by the subpoena 

or order is the subject of this Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must deliver a copy 

of this Stipulated 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 

Protective Order and to afford the Designating Party in this case an opportunity to try to protect its 

confidentiality interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued. The Designating Party 

shall bear the burdens and the expenses 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. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL. 

If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 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 copies of the Protected 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” that 

is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 

10. FILING 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 Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under 

seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. 

11. FINAL DISPOSITION. Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the 

Producing Party, within sixty days after the final termination of this action, each Receiving Party must 

return all Protected Material to the Producing Party. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected 

Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other form of reproducing or 

capturing any of the Protected Material. With permission in writing from the Designating Party, the 

Receiving Party may destroy some or all of the Protected Material instead of returning it. Whether 

the 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 Designating Party) by 

the sixty day deadline that identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that 

was returned or destroyed and that affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, 

abstracts, compilations, summaries or other forms of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected 

Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all 

pleadings, motion papers, transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence or attorney work product, 

even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute 

Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION), 

above. 

12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this 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 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
