`PETITIONER’S MOTION TO SEAL
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 Cavium, LLC (formerly Cavium, Inc.) which filed a Petition in Case IPR2018-

`
`
`
`
`
`Case IPR2018-00226
`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`
`
`Petitioner Intel Corporation (“Petitioner”) hereby moves to seal certain
`
`portions of Petitioner Intel’s demonstrative exhibits that reference highly
`
`confidential information of the Petitioner. Good cause exists for granting this motion
`
`because Petitioner Intel’s demonstrative 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 portions of
`
`its demonstrative exhibits, specifically portions of demonstrative exhibits 201, 202,
`
`203, 210, 211, 219, 235, 238, 241, 250, 254, 255.
`

`
`
`
`Case IPR2018-00226
`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`
`
`Petitioner Intel’s demonstrative exhibits are redacted to protect highly
`
`sensitive, commercial information related to the relationship between Intel and its
`
`customers and other internal Intel business practices. As such, portions of the
`
`demonstrative exhibits are designated Petitioner’s Restricted – Attorneys’ Eyes Only
`
`under the Protective Order in this IPR.
`
`Because Petitioner Intel’s demonstrative exhibits contains certain confidential
`
`business information as indicated above, the public disclosure of which could cause
`
`Petitioner irreparable harm, good cause exists to seal portions of demonstrative
`
`exhibits as Petitioner’s Restricted – Attorneys’ Eyes Only information under the
`
`Protective Order. In addition, the information that Petitioner requests to be sealed
`
`has been 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
`
`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.

`U.S. Patent No. 7,124,205
`
`
`III. CONCLUSION
`
`For the foregoing reasons, Petitioner respectfully requests that the Board grant
`
`the motion to seal certain portions of Petitioner Intel’s demonstrative exhibits that
`
`reference highly confidential information of the Petitioner.
