`Patent No. 7,908,343
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54 Patent Owner Bradium
`
`Technologies LLC (“Patent Owner”) respectfully requests that the Board enter
`
`the proposed Protective Order (Paper 14) and seal Exhibits 2022 and 2029 and
`
`the portions of Patent Owner’s Response, and the Declaration of Mr. Isaac
`
`Levanon (Exhibit 2004) that contain material derived from Exhibits 2022 and
`
`2029. The Parties have conferred regarding this motion and Petitioner Microsoft
`
`Corporation does not oppose the Motion.
`
`I.
`
`PROPOSED PROTECTIVE ORDER
`
`The parties have conferred and agreed to the proposed Protective Order is
`
`the Default Standing Protective Order, a signed copy of which has been filed as
`
`Paper 14 pursuant to the Scheduling Order Section D. (See Paper 10 at p.5.)
`
`II.
`
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION TO SEAL
`
`The Office Patent Trial Practice Guide provides that “the rules aim to
`
`strike a balance between the public’s interest in maintaining a complete and
`
`understandable file history and the parties’ interest in protecting truly sensitive
`
`information.” 77 Fed. Reg. 48,756, 48,760 (Aug. 14, 2012). Those rules “identify
`
`confidential information in a manner consistent with Federal Rule of Civil
`
`Procedure 26(c)(1)(G), which provides for protective orders for trade secret or
`
`other confidential research, development, or commercial information.” Id. (citing
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.54).
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`Patent Owner Bradium has good cause to seal Exhibits 2022 and 2029
`
`because both exhibits are confidential commercial information.
`
`Exhibit 2022 is a confidential Project Report signed by Mr. Isaac Levanon,
`
`listed inventor for the ’343 Patent. The report is stamped as COMMERCIAL-IN-
`
`CONFIDENCE at the top of each page. This Report contains comprehensive
`
`technical information, financial summaries, financial terms, and projected sales
`
`information.
`
`Exhibit 2029 is a confidential License Agreement signed by Mr. Isaac
`
`Levanon. This agreement includes licensing and financial terms. The agreement
`
`imposes a confidentiality requirement. Exhibit 2029 at 7 (Section 11). DENSO
`
`Corporation has requested that Patent Owner Bradium maintain Exhibit 2029 as
`
`confidential pursuant to a protective order.
`
`
`
`Further, in accordance with the protective order (Paper 14) § 4(A)(ii), the
`
`non-confidential version of the Patent Owner’s Response and of the Declaration
`
`of Mr. Isaac Levanon (Exhibit 2004) is concurrently being filed by Patent Owner
`
`with confidential information redacted.
`
`II. CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, Exhibits 2022 and 2029, Patent Owner
`
`respectfully requests that the Board seal Exhibits 2022 and 2029 and the portions
`
`of Patent Owner’s Response, and the Declaration of Mr. Isaac Levanon (Exhibit
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`IPR2016-00448
`Patent No. 7,908,343
`
`2004) that contain material derived from Exhibits 2022 and 2029.
