`
`Information Designated as Confidential Information
`
`I.A.1. For purposes of this Order, “CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION” shall mean all
`
`information or material produced for or disclosed in connection with this action to a receiving
`
`party that a producing party—including any party to this action and any non-party producing
`
`information or material voluntarily or pursuant to a subpoena or a court order in connection with
`
`this action—considers in good faith to comprise confidential or non-public sensitive information,
`
`the unrestricted disclosure of which could be potentially harmful to the business or operations of
`
`the party, whether embodied in physical objects, documents, or the factual knowledge of persons,
`
`and which has been so designated by the producing party. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
`
`shall mean material the producing party believes in good faith is not generally known to others,
`
`and that the producing party (i) would not normally reveal to third parties except in confidence or
`
`has undertaken with others to maintain in confidence, (ii) believes in good faith is protected by a
`
`right to privacy under federal or state law or any other applicable privilege or right related to
`
`confidentiality or privacy, or (iii) believes in good faith to constitute or to contain confidential
`
`and/or proprietary information not otherwise known or available to the public.
`
`CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION shall include all material referring or relating to the
`
`foregoing, including but not limited to copies, summaries, and abstracts of the foregoing. Any

`physical form or which cannot be conveniently designated as set forth in Paragraph I.A.2, shall
`
`be designated by the producing party by informing the receiving party of the designation in
`
`writing at the time of production.
`
`I.A.4. Any documents (including physical objects) made available for inspection by
`
`counsel for the receiving party prior to producing copies of selected items shall initially be
`
`considered, as a whole, to constitute CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION (unless otherwise
`
`designated at the time of inspection) and shall be subject to this Order. Thereafter, the producing

`
`I.C.1.
`
`“Micron Design Files” shall mean computer files or documents that can be
`
`reviewed only using specialized design software under license to Micron. If any Micron Design
`
`Files are relevant and subject to discovery, they may be made available for inspection pursuant to
`
`the provisions under Paragraph I.C.2.
`
`I.C.2. Protected Matters designated as “RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE
`
`COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY” shall be subject to additional protections given the particularly
`
`sensitive nature of the information, unless otherwise advised by the producing party:
`
`I.C.2.a. All RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY
`
`material, if determined to be relevant and subject to discovery, shall be made available by the
`
`producing party to the receiving party’s outside counsel and/or experts (who have been approved
`
`under Section III) on a secured computer that is (i) without Internet access or network access to
`
`other computers, and (ii) with all input/output ports (such as USB) blocked, as necessary and
`
`appropriate to prevent and protect against any unauthorized copying, transmission, removal or
`
`other transfer of any RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY
`
`Material outside or away from the computer on which the RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL -
`
`OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY Material is provided for inspection (the “Secure
`
`Computer”), provided however that, at the producing party’s discretion, the computer may have

`
`
`such input/output ports enabled so that the computer may be connected to the producing party’s
`
`internal network, and provided further that such connection shall not be used by the producing
`
`party’s litigation department or outside counsel to monitor the receiving party’s activities while
`
`accessing the Secure Computer. The Secure Computer will be located at the producing party’s
`
`facilities (including in Boise, ID) or at another location to be determined by the producing party.
`
`After the Secure Computer has been prepared and provided to the receiving party, the producing
`
`party shall thereafter provide access to the Secure Computer during regular business hours (9:00
`
`a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time) or at other mutually agreeable times, on reasonable notice provided
`
`in writing by the receiving party (which shall be no less than seven (7) business days’ notice).
`
`This written notice from the receiving party shall identify in writing to the producing party the
`
`persons who will be conducting the inspection or will be present during the inspection. The
`
`producing party shall make available software tools that are the same or equivalent to those used
`
`in the ordinary course of business by the producing party’s employees. The producing party
`
`shall provide reasonable assistance in the basic operations of the Secure Computer, which
`
`assistance includes providing an employee to operate the Secure Computer while the receiving
`
`party directs the producing party’s employee to the portions of the design the receiving party
`
`wishes to review. The receiving party shall not at any time use any compilers, interpreters or
`
`simulators in connection with the producing party’s RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL-
`
`OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY material, and in no event shall the receiving party cause
`
`tools to be installed on the Secure Computer that have the effect of altering, modifying, deleting,
`
`copying, or otherwise permitting the reproduction or removal of such RESTRICTED
`
`CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY Material. The receiving party shall
`
`not be permitted to bring electronic devices, including but not limited to hard drives, cellular

`
`
`phones, PDAs, cameras, voice recorders, recording devices, and recordable media into the
`
`location of the Secure Computer. At the request of the receiving party, the producing party shall
`
`produce hard copies of restricted confidential material (“Original Printouts”) that is designated or
`
`otherwise identified by the receiving party during or following its review of Secure Computer
`
`and is reasonably necessary to facilitate the receiving party’s preparation of court filings, expert
`
`reports, and trial exhibits. The producing party shall Bates number, copy, and label
`
`“RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL OUTSIDE COUNSEL'S EYES ONLY Material” on any
`
`Original Printouts. If the producing party objects that the portions requested to be printed are
`
`excessive and/or not reasonably necessary to any case preparation activity, the producing party
`
`shall make such objection known to the receiving party within five (5) business days. If, after
`
`meeting and conferring, the producing party and the receiving party cannot resolve the objection,
`
`the receiving party or the producing party shall be entitled to seek a Court resolution of whether
`
`the print request is reasonably necessary to any case preparation activity as provided herein. The
`
`moving party shall file an appropriate motion within five (5) business days of the completion of
`
`the meet and confer process. The opposing party shall file a response to the motion within five
`
`(5) business days. The producing party must use its power to object reasonably and may not, for
`
`example, make an objection simply to introduce delay or attempt to discover privileged
`
`information. The Original Printouts shall constitute part of the RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL
`
`- OUTSIDE COUNSEL'S EYES ONLY Material produced by the producing party in this action.
`
`I.C.2.b. In the event that Elm seeks certain trade secret materials that Micron believes
`
`should be designated “RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE COUNSEL’S EYES
`
`ONLY,” Elm must first demonstrate any such materials are relevant and subject to discovery. If

`
`
`Elm does so demonstrate, then the parties shall meet and confer in good faith to determine under
`
`what conditions such material may be produced, and amend the protective order if necessary.
`
`I.C.2.c. Matters designated as “RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE
`
`COUNSEL’S EYES ONLY” and information contained therein shall be available only to the
