`Joint Submission of Proposed Protective Order
`IPR2021-00145 (U.S. Patent No. 8,812,993)
`
`Pursuant to the Board’s November 2, 2021 Order (Paper 34), Petitioners
`
`Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. and Samsung Electronics America, Inc. and Patent
`
`Owner, Neonode Smartphone LLC, hereby submit the joint proposed protective
`
`order appended below as Appendix A, and Exhibit 1049, Marked-Up version of
`
`Samsung and Neonode Joint Proposed Protective Order.
`
`Good cause exists to deviate from the Default Protective Order. Samsung
`
`Petitioners seek to seal an agreement (Exhibit 2025) between Samsung Electronics
`
`Co. Ltd and Neonode Sweden AB, a predecessor in interest to Neonode
`
`Smartphone LLC in the 8,812,993 patent. Apple, Inc., one of the Petitioner parties
`
`to this IPR, is not a party to the agreement. Neonode Smartphone opposes
`
`(Paper 32) the Samsung Petitioners’ motion to seal the agreement and related
`
`information (Paper 31), but jointly submits the form of Protective Order submitted
`
`herewith to govern disclosure of the agreement and related information in the event
`
`that the Board grants Samsung’s motion. The proposed modifications to the
`
`Default Protective Order aim to account for providing Neonode party
`
`representatives and persons with knowledge of the agreement access to the
`
`document, and excluding access to in-house personnel at Apple, Inc.

`
`associate attorneys, attorneys who are not employees of counsel of record
`
`who are retained to assist counsel of record on an hourly basis, and paralegal,

`
`(D) Experts. Retained experts of a party in the proceeding who further certify
`
`in the Acknowledgement that they are not a competitor to any party, or a

`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`
`
`(E) Support Personnel. Administrative assistants, clerical staff, court
`
`reporters and other support personnel of the foregoing persons who are

`
`requirements of the Protective Order by the person they are supporting who
`
`receives confidential information.
`
`(F) The Office. Employees and representatives of the United States Patent
`
`and Trademark 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 representatives shall include the
`
`Director, members of the Board and their clerical staff, other support
`
`personnel, court reporters, and other persons acting on behalf of the Office.
`
`3. Employees (e.g., corporate officers), consultants, or other persons
`
`performing work for a party, other than those persons identified above in (2)(A)-
`
`(E), shall be extended access to confidential information only upon agreement of
`
`the parties or by order of the Board upon a motion brought by the party seeking to
`
`disclose confidential information to that person and after signing the
`
`Acknowledgment. The party opposing disclosure to that person shall have the
`
`burden of proving that such person should be restricted from access to confidential
`
`information.
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`4. Persons receiving confidential information 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
`
`confidential information understand and abide by the obligation to maintain
`
`the confidentiality of information received that is designated as confidential;
`
`and
`
`(D) Limiting the copying of confidential information to a reasonable number
`
`of copies needed for conduct of the proceeding and maintaining a record of
`
`the locations of such copies.
`
`5.
`
`Persons receiving confidential information shall use the following
`
`procedures to maintain the confidentiality of the information:
`
`(A) Documents and Information Filed With the Board.
`
`(i) A party may file documents or information with the Board along with a
`
`Motion to Seal. The Motion to Seal should provide a non-confidential
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`
`
`description of the nature of the confidential information that is under seal,
`
`and set forth the reasons why the information is confidential and should
`
`not be made available to the public. A party may challenge the
`
`confidentiality of the information by opposing the Motion to Seal. The
`
`submission shall be treated as confidential and remain under seal, unless
`
`the Board determines that the documents or information does not qualify
`
`for confidential treatment. The information shall remain under seal unless
`
`the Board determines that some or all of the information does not qualify
`
`for confidential treatment.
`
`(ii) Where confidentiality is alleged as to some but not all of the information
`
`submitted to the Board, the submitting party shall file confidential and
`
`non-confidential versions of its submission, together with a Motion to
`
`Seal the confidential version setting forth the reasons why the
`
`information redacted from the non-confidential version is confidential
`
`and should not be made available to the public. A party may challenge
`
`the confidentiality of the information by opposing the Motion to Seal.
`
`The non-confidential version of the submission shall clearly indicate the
`
`locations of information that has been redacted. The confidential version
`
`of the submission shall be filed under seal. The redacted information
`
`
`
`
`
`

`

`
`
`shall remain under seal unless the Board determines that some or all of
`
`the redacted information does not qualify for confidential treatment.
`
`(B) Documents and Information Exchanged Among the Parties. Documents
`
`(including deposition transcripts) and other information designated as
`
`confidential that are disclosed to another party during discovery or other
`
`proceedings before the Board shall be clearly marked as “SAMSUNG-
`
`NEONODE-CONFIDENTIAL – APPLE ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”
`
`and shall be produced in a manner that maintains its confidentiality.
`
`6. Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, including the
`
`exhaustion of all appeals and motions, each party receiving confidential
`
`information must return, or certify the destruction of, all copies of the confidential
`
`information to the producing party.
