`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01171-GMS Document 66 Filed 05/22/15 Page 4 of 28 PageID #: 709
`
`categories by a Source shall be considered to be non-confidential. No information shall be
`
`regarded as Confidential Information:
`
`(a)
`
`if it is in the public domain at the time of disclosure, as evidenced by a
`
`document, electronically stored information, or tangible thing;
`
`(b)
`
`if it becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the receiving
`
`party, as evidenced by a document, electronically stored information, or tangible thing;

`
`document, electronically stored information, or tangible thing; or
`
`(d)
`

`
`CONFIDENTIAL” shall mean information that the Source in good faith believes is of a

`including, but not limited to, information that the Source in good faith believes constitutes a trade
`
`secret in the possession of the Source, including the trade secrets of the Source’s customers,
`
`vendors, accountants, underwriters, or other party, or that the Source in good faith believes
`
`constitutes other highly sensitive proprietary information that is entitled to additional protections.

`5.
`
`Designation as “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY”. The designation “OUTSIDE
`
`COUNSEL ONLY” is limited to information that the Source in good faith believes constitutes
`
`technical or business information of a most sensitive nature that might be of significant value to an
`
`actual or potential competitor of the Source and which must be protected from disclosure as set
`
`forth herein. Information designated “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” may include, but is not
`
`limited to, certain materials relating to highly sensitive research and development, regulatory
`
`approval, and/or future business plans, financial analyses and projections, contractual
`
`relationships with third parties, and the identification of customers and suppliers.
`
`6.
`
`Limited Use of Discovery.
`
`(a)
`
`All Confidential Information shall be used solely for this Litigation and the
`
`preparation and trial in this Litigation, or any appellate proceeding resulting from this Litigation,
`
`and not for any other purpose whatsoever, including without limitation, any other litigation, patent
`
`prosecution, patent reexamination and reissue proceedings, acquisition, or any communication
`
`with any U.S. or foreign regulatory agency including, but not limited to, the FDA, or any business,
`
`research, development or competitive purpose or function. Confidential Information must not be
`
`distributed, disclosed, or made available to anyone except as expressly provided in this Order.
`
`This Order places no limitation on a Source’s use or disclosure of its own Confidential Information.
`
`In addition, any person who receives or reviews OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY information
`
`produced by any party other than his or her client shall not thereafter, during the pendency of the
`
`instant litigation and for one year after the final conclusion of this litigation, including appeals:
`
`(i)
`
`amend, draft, or otherwise substantively assist in the drafting or
`

`
`Manner of Disclosure. The provisions of this Protective Order extend to all
`
`Confidential Information regardless of the manner in which it is disclosed, including but not
`
`limited to any interrogatory answers; responses to requests for admission; deposition testimony,
`
`transcripts, and exhibits; and any other discovery materials produced in response to or in
`
`connection with any discovery conducted in the Litigation, in each case that has been designated
`
`consistent with the manner set forth in Paragraph 9, and any copies, notes, abstracts or summaries
`
`of the foregoing materials.
`
`9.
`
`Manner of Designating Confidentiality. Documents or information may be
`
`designated as Confidential Information within the meaning of this Protective Order in the
`
`following ways:
`
`(a)
`
`In the case of documents and the information contained therein, designation
`
`shall be made by means of placing a stamp, label, or other clear designation stating “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” on the documents to be so designated. In
`
`cases where it is impractical to stamp each page of a document, the Source shall indicate on the
`
`face of the document that the entire document is either Highly Confidential or Outside Counsel
`
`Only.
`
`(b)
`
`In the case of interrogatory answers, responses to requests for admissions
`
`and the information contained therein, designation shall be made by placing on the front of any set
`
`of interrogatory answers or responses to requests for admission containing Confidential
`
`Information: “Contains information designated [select one or more as appropriate] HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL/ OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY.” Designated parts are not to be used, copied,
`
`or disclosed except as authorized by this Protective Order.

`
`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01171-GMS Document 66 Filed 05/22/15 Page 10 of 28 PageID #: 715
`
`(c)
`
`In the case of depositions and the information contained in depositions
`
`(including exhibits), designation of the whole transcript or portions of the transcript (including
`
`exhibits) that contain Confidential Information shall be made either on the record at the deposition
`
`or by letter from counsel within seven (7) days of receipt of the deposition transcript. If the
`
`testimony involves material that a non-party designated as confidential, the person taking the
`
`deposition must consult that non-party to determine whether the affected portions of the testimony
`
`should be designated as Confidential Information. The entire deposition transcript (including
`
`exhibits) shall be treated as OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY under this Protective Order until the
`
`expiration of the above-referenced thirty-day period for designation by letter, except that the
`
`deponent may review the transcript of his or her own deposition during this seven-day period. The
`
`parties may also agree to extend the time period for providing such designations. Further, the
`
`notation, “Contains information designated [select one or more as appropriate] HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL/OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” shall be placed on the front of the deposition
`
`transcript, and, if the deposition is videotaped, on the videocassette, CD-ROM or other video
`
`container. Designated parts are not to be used, copied, or disclosed except as authorized by this
`
`Protective Order. Counsel retaining court reporters shall have the responsibility for ensuring their
`
`compliance with this paragraph.
`
`(d)
`
`To the extent that matter stored or recorded in the form of electronic or
`
`magnetic media (including information, databases or programs stored on computers, discs,
`
`networks or tapes) (“Computerized Material”) is produced by any Source in such form, the Source
`
`may designate such matter as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY”
`
`by placing a stamp, label or other clear designation stating “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” or
`
`“OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” on the disc or tape containing the Computerized Material.

`
`Disclosure To And Identification Of Experts and Consultants. If any party desires
`
`to disclose “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” information of
`
`another party to any Expert or Consultant, it must first identify each Expert or Consultant to the
`
`Source’s attorneys in writing. Such identification shall include: (1) the proposed Expert or
`
`Consultant’s full name, professional address, and professional affiliations; (2) an up-to-date
`
`curriculum vitae identifying the past five years of consulting history; and (3) a list of the cases in
`
`which the Expert or Consultant has testified at a deposition or at trial within the last four years; and
`
`(4) an executed copy of the Acknowledgement and Agreement to be Bound (see Exhibit A).
`
`The attorney for the Source shall have seven (7) calendar days from receipt of such notice
`
`to object to such disclosure, during which time no such disclosure shall be made.
`
`If the Source does object to the proposed disclosure, the parties shall meet and confer
`
`within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of such objection to resolve the disagreement.
`
`If the parties are not able to come to an agreement, the producing party shall have the
`
`burden of moving the Court for an order prohibiting the disclosure. The receiving party shall have
`
`ten (10) business days after the producing party has filed a motion to respond. If such a motion is
`
`filed, disclosure shall not be made until the Court has ruled on the motion and response. If the
`
`Court orders disclosure, such disclosure shall not in any way affect the designation of the material
`
`or information disclosed, nor shall it allow any party to deviate from the requirements of this
`
`Protective Order regarding disclosure to any other person.
`
`11.
`
`Disclosure To And Identification Of In-House Counsel. If any party desires to
`
`disclose “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” information of another party to an In-House Counsel, it
`
`must first identify such in-house counsel to the Source’s attorneys in writing. The initial
`
`designations for Plaintiffs are as follows:

`
`substitute in-house counsel being added and the in-house counsel being removed. Such
`
`identification shall include the proposed in-house counsel’s: (1) full name; (2) job title; and (3)
`
`professional address.
`
`The Source shall have seven (7) calendar days from receipt of such notice to object to such

`
`If the parties are not able to come to an agreement, the receiving party shall have the burden
`
`of moving the Court for an order allowing the disclosure. The Source shall have ten (10) business
`
`days after the receiving party has filed a motion seeking disclosure to respond. If the Court issues
`
`an order permitting disclosure, such disclosure shall not in any way affect the designation of the
`
`material or information disclosed, nor shall it allow any party to deviate from the requirements of
`
`this Protective Order regarding disclosure to any other person.
`
`13.
`
`Preservation of Executed Acknowledgements. Persons, such as experts and
`
`consultants, who are not parties to this Litigation but will have access to Confidential Information
`
`shall review and sign an Acknowledgement and Agreement to be Bound (see Exhibit A). The
`
`originals of any executed Acknowledgments of Stipulated Protective Order shall be deemed work
`
`product, and the party who obtains them shall maintain them until (30) days after the filing of the
`
`decision from the last reviewing court that disposes of the Litigation in its entirety (“the Final
`
`Resolution of the Litigation”). In any action or proceeding to enforce the terms of this Order, upon
`
`a showing of good cause to the Court, copies of all executed Acknowledgments of Stipulated
`
`Protective Order shall be provided to the court for in cam e ra review.
`
`14.
`
`Objections to Designations. The following procedures shall govern any challenges
`
`to confidentiality designations:
`
`(a)
`
`If a party in good faith believes that information should not be designated as
`
`Confidential Information, it must specify to the Source in writing (i) the information challenged
`
`and (ii) the grounds for questioning the confidentiality designation. The Source must respond in
`
`writing within ten (10) business days, or within such additional time as is reasonable (taking into
`
`account the number of documents or other information challenged) and is agreed to by counsel or
`
`as ordered by the Court.

`
`(b)
`
`If the objecting party and the Source do not reach agreement within ten (10)
`
`business days after the Source has responded to the challenging party, then the party opposing the
`
`confidentiality designation has ten (10) business days to move the Court to compel. Until the Court
`
`rules, the confidentiality designation shall remain in effect.
`
`(c)
`
`Nothing in this Protective Order shall be deemed to allocate or reallocate
`
`any substantive burdens with respect to confidentiality, which shall be determined in accordance
`
`with governing law.
`
`15.
`
`Option to Redact Information. The Source may choose to produce documents,
`
`electronically stored information, or tangible things in redacted form, redacting information that is
`
`nonresponsive (including confidential material unrelated to the litigation), or information that is
`
`protected by the attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine. The Source will make it
`
`clear that a redaction has been made on each redacted portion of the document, electronically
`
`stored information, or tangible thing. If requested by a receiving party, the Source will, within ten
`
`(10) business days of such request, provide the basis for any redactions made to identified
`
`documents.
`
`16.
`
`Objection to Redactions. The following procedures shall govern any challenges to
`
`a redaction:
`
`(a)
`
`If a party in good faith believes that a redaction is improper, it must specify
`
`to the Source in writing (i) the redaction challenged and (ii) the grounds for questioning the
`
`redaction. The Source must respond in writing within ten (10) business days, or within such
`
`additional time as is reasonable (taking into account the number of documents or other information
`
`challenged) and is agreed to by counsel or as ordered by the Court.

`
`(b)
`
`The Source and the party challenging a redaction may choose, but are not
`
`required, to designate a mutually acceptable party to inspect the redacted information and to
`
`provide a recommendation as to whether the redaction was proper. The Source is not required to
`
`make such a disclosure of redacted information, but if such a disclosure is made, it shall be
`
`considered to have been made only to expedite resolution of the dispute over the redaction and
`
`shall not constitute a waiver by the Source of any privilege, immunity, or other protection from
`
`disclosure. The mutually acceptable party inspecting the redacted information shall sign an
`
`Acknowledgement and Agreement to be Bound and shall not disclose the redacted information to
`
`any other person or use such information for any other purpose other than to inspect the redacted
`
`information and to provide a recommendation as to whether the redaction was proper.
`
`(c)
`
`If the objecting party and the Source do not reach agreement within ten (10)
`
`business days after the Source has responded to the challenging party, then the party opposing the
`
`redaction has ten (10) business days to move the Court to compel. Until the Court rules, the
`
`redaction shall remain in place.
`
`(d)
`
`Nothing in this Protective Order shall be deemed to allocate or reallocate
`
`any substantive burdens with respect to assertions of attorney-client privilege, work-product
`
`doctrine, or trade secret, which shall be determined in accordance with governing law.
`
`17.
`
`Filing Confidential Information with the Court. The Clerk of the Court is directed
`
`to maintain under seal any pleading, motion, brief, memorandum, exhibit, affidavit, declaration,
`
`transcript, response to a discovery request, or other paper filed with the Court in compliance with
`
`Local Rule 5.1.3, which has been designated, in whole or in part, as containing or revealing
`
`Confidential Information under this Stipulated Protective Order. Such documents shall be filed
`
`under seal and subsequently redacted according to the Local Rules and the District of Delaware’s

`18.
`
`Confidential Designations and Objections Thereto. Parties shall limit their
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” designations solely to
`
`information which they in good faith believe to fall within this Protective Order. No receiving
`
`party shall be under any obligation to object to the designation of any document or information as
`
`“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL” or “OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY” at the time such designation is
`
`made, or at any time thereafter, and no party shall, by failure to object, be found to have acquiesced
`
`or agreed to such designation or be barred from objecting to such designation at any time.
`
`19.
`
`Preservation of Rights and Privileges. Nothing contained in this Protective Order
`
`shall: (a) affect the right, if any, of any party or non-party to make any type of objection, claim, or
`
`other response to any discovery request, including, without limitation, any interrogatories,
`
`requests for admissions, requests for production of documents or questions at a deposition; (b) be
`
`construed as a waiver of any legally cognizable privilege to withhold any Confidential Information,
`
`or of any right to assert such privilege at any stage of the Litigation; or (c) prevent any party fro
