`PETITIONER’S MOTION TO SEAL
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1Cavium LLC (formerly Cavium, Inc.), which filed a Petition in Case IPR2018-
`00400, and Dell Inc., which filed a Petition in Case IPR2018-01306, have been
`joined as petitioners in this proceeding.
`
`
`
`

`

`Petitioner Intel Corporation (“Petitioner”) hereby moves to seal certain
`
`Case IPR2018-00226
`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`
`
`exhibits attached to its Reply to Patent Owner’s Response to Petition for Inter Partes
`
`Review of U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205 that reference highly confidential information
`
`of the Petitioner. The exhibits Petitioner seeks to seal are 1414, 1422-1424. Good
`
`cause exists for granting this motion because the exhibits include highly confidential
`
`information.
`
`I. MOTION TO SEAL
`
`The record of an inter partes review proceeding, including documents and
`
`things, is made available to the public, except as otherwise ordered. 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 2.14. But despite the default rule of public availability, the Board will seal
`
`confidential information for “good cause,” because it is necessary 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.” 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.54(a); 77 Fed. Reg. 48756, 48760 (Aug. 14, 2012). As set forth in the
`
`Office Trial Practice Guide, the Board treats confidential information “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. at 48760.
`
`In accordance with rules and procedures, Petitioner moves to seal the
`
`following exhibits.
`

`
`

`

`Exhibit 1414 is a declaration from Garland Stephens. It is redacted to protect
`
`Case IPR2018-00226
`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`
`
`highly confidential information related to the relationship between Intel and its
`
`customers. As such, Exhibit 1414 is designated as Petitioner’s Restricted –
`
`Attorneys’ Eyes Only under the Protective Order in this IPR.
`
`Exhibits 1422 and 1423 are agreements between Intel and Dell. These
`
`agreements include highly confidential information pertaining to the relationship
`
`between Intel and Dell. These agreements are designated as Petitioner’s Restricted-
`
`Attorneys’ Eyes Only information under the Protective Order in this IPR.
`
`Exhibit 1424 are Intel’s Terms and Conditions of Sale. This agreement
`
`includes highly confidential information pertaining to Intel’s relationship with its
`
`customers. This agreement is designated as Petitioner’s Restricted - Attorneys’ Eyes
`
`Only information under the Protective Order in this IPR.
`
`Because Exhibits 1414 and 1422-1424 contain certain confidential business
`
`information as indicated above, the disclosure of which could cause Petitioner
`
`irreparable harm, good cause exists to seal the entirety of these documents as
`
`Petitioner’s Restricted-Attorneys’ Eyes Only information under the Protective
`
`Order. In addition, the information that is requested to be sealed is being submitted
`
`only to rebut Patent Owner’s arguments regarding real party-in-interest. The
`
`information is otherwise unimportant to the merits of this proceeding, and therefore
`
`the public’s interest in having access to this information is minimal.

`
`II. CERTIFICATION OF NON-PUBLICATION
`
`Case IPR2018-00226
`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`On behalf of Petitioner, the undersigned counsel certifies that the information
`
`sought to be sealed by this Motion has not, to their knowledge, been published or
`
`otherwise made public.
`
`III. CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, Petitioner respectfully requests that the Board grant
`
`the motion to seal certain exhibits attached to its Reply to Patent Owner’s Response
