`
`from access to confidential information.
`
`(E) The Office. Employees and representatives of the Office who have a need for
`
`access to the confidential information shall have such access without the
`
`requirement to sign an Acknowledgement. Such employees and

`

`
`Subject to all ITAR export and temporary import controls, ITAR Restricted
`
`Documents are further limited to the individuals in paragraph 34 above who are U.S.
`
`Persons (as defined by ITAR §120.15). Notwithstanding anything in this Order, access to
`
`or disclosure or release of ITAR Restricted Documents by any unauthorized person is
`
`controlled by the ITAR, and nothing in this order shall be construed to contravene the
`
`ITAR, without the prior written approval of the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of
`
`Defense Trade Controls, or a violation of the ITAR could result.
`
`5.
`
`“ITAR-RESTRICTED” documents, information and material may not be
`
`exported, reexported, temporarily imported, transferred, or retransferred to any foreign
`
`person (as defined by ITAR § 120.16), country, or entity, by any means, without the
`
`appropriate approval of the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade
`
`Controls. These restrictions also apply to United States citizens and permanent residents
`
`employed by a company or organization that falls within the definition of “foreign
`
`person.” See ITAR § 120.16. United States persons employed by such a foreign
`
`organization or company are not eligible to receive ITAR-controlled information absent
`
`an authorization from the DDTC.
`
`000003
`
`
`
`6.
`
`In any instance where information designated as “ITAR-RESTRICTED” is
`
`accessed, the person with such access shall not transfer, carry, or send such information
`
`to a location outside the United States, including via any electronic device or means, nor
`
`otherwise share such information with any person not explicitly authorized to receive
`
`such information as set forth above. “ITAR-RESTRICTED” documents related to this
`
`case containing technical data under the ITAR must be protected from export or transfer
`
`to unauthorized foreign persons, whether located inside or outside of the United States,
`
`including any foreign persons (as defined under these export control regimes) that may be
`
`employed by law firms, consultants, or any other third party involved in this dispute.
`
`Additionally, the furnishing of technical assistance (including the disclosure or release of
`
`ITAR-controlled technical data) may constitute a “defense service,” which also requires
`
`approval. Any disclosure of Raytheon-produced export-controlled technical data, or
`
`furnishing of technical assistance where an authorization is needed but not secured,
`
`constitutes an export violation, which should be disclosed to the Department of State.
`
`Counsel will take all necessary steps to ensure that any “ITAR-RESTRICTED”
`
`documents will only be provided to, or accessible by, U.S. persons employed by Counsel
`
`that have entered an appearance in this case. Counsel also must ensure that only U.S.
`
`persons serving as expert or fact witnesses, or acting on behalf of Counsel as contractors,
`
`vendors, or other service providers, have access to export control restricted Documents.
`
`Additionally, Counsel will take all necessary steps to ensure access to these documents
`
`will be restricted to U.S. Persons (as defined by ITAR §120.15), that these documents
`
`will not be exported to foreign persons or foreign countries, and that no technical
`
`000004
`
`
`
`assistance directly related to controlled defense articles or other commodities will be
`
`provided to foreign persons or foreign countries. No provision herein shall be construed
`
`as preventing Counsel from submit ITAR-RestricedRestricted information to the Board
`
`consistent with the Board’s procedures for filing sealed documents.
`
`7.
`
`The ITAR contains additional provisions relating to the disclosure of any
`
`actual or suspected infractions regarding “ITAR-RESTRICTED” documents and things.
`
`See ITAR § 127.12. Any party aware of actual or suspected ITAR infractions, with
`
`respect to information designated by Raytheon as ITAR-RESTRICTED, will
`
`immediately inform Raytheon Company.
`
`8.

`Persons receiving Designated Material shall use reasonable efforts to
`
`maintain the confidentiality of the information, including:
`
`(A) Maintaining such information in a secure location to which persons not
`
`authorized to receive the information shall not have access;
`
`(B) Otherwise using reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of the
`
`information, which efforts shall be no less rigorous than those the recipient
`
`uses to maintain the confidentiality of information not received from the
`
`disclosing party;
`
`(C) Ensuring that support personnel of the recipient who have access to the
`
`Designated Material understand and abide by the obligation to maintain the
`
`confidentiality of information received that is designated; and

`
`(D) Limiting the copying of Designated Material to a reasonable number of copies
`
`needed for conduct of the proceeding and maintaining a record of the locations
`

`information redacted from the non-confidential version is confidential and
`
`should not be made available to the public. The nonconfidential version of
`
`the submission shall clearly indicate the locations of information that has
`
`000006
`
`
`
`been redacted. The confidential version of the submission shall be filed
`
`under seal. Subject to ITAR, tThe redacted information shall remain under
`
`seal unless, upon motion of a party and after a hearing on the issue, or sua

`
`(B) Documents and Information Exchanged Among the Parties. Designated

`
`the Final Disposition, unless the Order is vacated.
