`3(g), 3(i) or 3(j) above; and (ii) such Material is subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this Order.
`
`Inclusion of this designation in this order by no means constitutes an agreement that the inspection

`code material.
`
`6.
`
`DISCLOSURE TO OUTSIDE CONSULTANTS. No disclosure of Designated
`
`Material to Outside Consultants shall occur until the notice and resolution of objection procedures

`
`6.1
`

`
`6.2
`
`Objections. The Designating Party shall have five (5) business days from
`
`receipt of the notice specified in Section 6.1 to object in writing to such disclosure. Any such
`
`objection must set forth in detail the grounds on which it is based. After the expiration of the 5-
`
`day period, if no objection has been asserted, then Designated Material may be disclosed to the

`
`Outside Consultant pursuant to the terms of this Order. However, if the Designating Party objects
`
`within the 5-day period, the Receiving Party may not disclose Designated Material to the
`
`challenged individual absent resolution of the dispute or Court Order. In the event the Designating
`
`Party makes a timely objection, the parties shall promptly meet and confer to try to resolve the
`
`matter by agreement. If the parties cannot reach an agreement, the Objecting Party may, within
`
`three (3) business days following the meet and confer, file a motion for a protective order
`
`preventing disclosure of Designated Material to the Outside Consultant (using the Court’s letter
`
`brief dispute procedure). If the Objecting Party files a timely motion for a protective order,
`
`Designated Material shall not be disclosed to the challenged individual until and unless a final
`
`ruling allowing such disclosure is made by this Court, or by the consent of the Objecting Party,
`
`whichever occurs first. If the Objecting Party fails to file a motion for a protective order within the
`
`prescribed period, the Designated Material may thereafter be disclosed to such individual.

`
`
`
`7.3
`
`Non-parties may be shown at deposition and examined on any document
`
`containing Designated Material of a Producing Party that appears on its face, or which the
`
`Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel reasonably and in good faith believes based on other

`documents or testimony, to have been received from or communicated to the non-party. Any
`
`person other than the witness, his or her attorney(s), and any person qualified to receive Designated
`
`Material under this Order, shall be excluded from the portion of the examination concerning such
`
`information, unless the Producing Party consents to persons other than qualified recipients being

`
`this Order to receive such information, then prior to the examination, the attorney shall be
`
`requested to sign the “Acknowledgement and Agreement To Be Bound By Protective Order”
`
`attached as Exhibit A. In the event that such attorney declines to sign the Acknowledgement and
`
`Agreement To Be Bound By Protective Order prior to the examination, the parties, by their
`
`attorneys, shall jointly seek a protective order from the Court prohibiting such attorney from
`
`disclosing such Designated Material.

`CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” but who is not under a present non-disclosure agreement
`
`with the Producing Party that covers that document, may be shown the document at deposition if
`
`the witness is advised on the record of the existence of the Protective Order and that the protective
`
`order requires the parties to keep confidential any questions, testimony or documents that are
`
`designated as “CONFIDENTIAL,” “CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY,” or
`
`“RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE.” The witnesses may not copy, take notes
`

`
`“CONFIDENTIAL – OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” or “RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL –
`
`SOURCE CODE.” The Producing Party of any Designated Material used at the deposition may
`
`also require that the transcript and exhibits not be copied by a witness who is not subject to this
`
`Order or his counsel who is not subject to this Order, that no notes may be made of the transcript
`
`or the exhibits, and that the transcript and exhibits may only be reviewed by the witness in the
`
`offices of one of the counsel representing a party in this case (or another firm acting for one of the
`
`counsel representing a party in this case and under the supervision of one of the lawyers who is
`
`bound by the terms of this Order).

`
`knowledge.
`
`7.6
`
`Notwithstanding any sub-Section of this Section 7, no copies of Designated
`
`Material may be provided to any deponent or trial witness other than for purposes of the
`
`examination without the written consent of the Producing Party.
`
`8.

`
`of Source Code in this Action.
`
`8.1
`
`Source Code designated as “RESTRICTED CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE
`

`CODE” shall be maintained by the Producing Party and made available for inspection by the
`
`Receiving Party on one or two (2) stand-alone computers as needed for one or more experts (that
`
`is, a computer not connected to any network, the Internet, or any peripheral device other than a
`
`keyboard, mouse, and monitor) and produced in electronic and searchable form in a manner
`
`consistent with how the code being produced is maintained in the ordinary course of business (e.g.,
`
`with folder hierarchies preserved).
`
`(b)
`
`The stand-alone computers shall be maintained in a secured location at the
`
`offices of the Producing Party’s outside counsel or at the offices of the Producing Party, access to
`
`which shall be controlled by reasonable physical (e.g., locked doors) and electronic (e.g., password
`
`or other access provisions) security measures. Use of any input/output device (e.g., USB memory
`
`stick, CDs, floppy disk, portable hard drive, etc.) is prohibited while accessing the computer
`
`containing the Source Code, and the Receiving Party shall not attempt to use any peripheral device
`
`of any kind (other than the keyboard, mouse, and monitor provided by the Producing Party) with
`
`the stand-alone computers, nor shall the Receiving Party attempt to install any software on the
`
`stand-alone computer. No person other than the Producing Party may alter, dismantle,
`
`disassemble, or modify the Standalone Computer in any way, or attempt to circumvent any security
`
`feature of the Standalone Computer.
`
`(c)
`
`The Producing Party shall install tools and software that are sufficient for
`
`viewing and searching the code produced on the platform produced, including any tools provided
`
`by the Receiving Party in accordance with the provisions and restrictions of this sub-paragraph of
`
`this Section. The Receiving Party’s outside counsel and/or experts may request that additional
`
`commercially available software tools for viewing and searching Source Code be installed on the
`
`secured computer, provided, however, that (i) the Receiving Party provides such software tools (or

`
`upon which the Receiving Party wishes to have the software tool(s) available for use on the
`
`standalone computer; (ii) the Receiving Party possesses an appropriate license to such software
`
`tools; (iii) the Producing Party approves such software tools (such approval shall not be
`
`unreasonably withheld); and (iv) such other software tools are reasonably necessary for the
`
`Receiving Party to perform its review of the Source Code consistent with all of the protections
`
`herein.
`
`8.2
`
`The Receiving Party shall make any request to inspect the Producing Party’s
`
`Source Code a reasonable time in advance of its desired inspection, and in no event less than five
`
`(5) court-days’ notice. Inspection of Source Code shall be permitted during regular business hours
`
`(i.e., 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.), although the Parties will be reasonable in accommodating requests to
`
`conduct inspections at other times. The Receiving Party shall be given access to the Source Code
`
`Computers during the pendency of this case, as requested.
`
`8.3
`
`At the Producing Party’s selection, the secure location will be at an office
`
`of the Producing Party’s Counsel of Record or at the offices of the Producing Party. The Producing
`
`Party will endeavor to make a separate, private room available for the Receiving Party to confer
`
`or talk on the phone.
`
`8.4

`No person shall copy, e-mail, transmit, upload, download, print,
`
`photograph, or otherwise duplicate any portion of Source Code, or documents or things designated

`
`Receiving Party desires to take notes electronically, it may do so using a computer not connected

`
`directory names, module names, class names, parameter names, variable names, function names,
`
`method names, or procedure names. The Producing Party may not inspect or review the notes of
`
`the Receiving Party or its consultants.

`
`maintained at all times in a locked and secure area.
`
`8.7
`
`No Party shall physically, magnetically, digitally, optically, or otherwise
`
`copy by any means, any Source Code, or documents or things that another Party has designated

`
`above.
