`
`
`
`Honorable John C. Coughenour
`
`
`The Court, having received and reviewed Apple Inc.’s Motion to Seal (the “Motion”),
`HEREBY FINDS, CONCLUDES, and ORDERS that:
`Apple Inc. has shown compelling reasons to seal the Global Tenets Agreement (“GTA”)
`attached as Exhibit A to its Motion to Dismiss and narrow portions of its Motion to Dismiss quot-
`ing the contents of the GTA. These materials contain confidential business information that, if
`made public, could harm Apple Inc.’s competitive standing by providing Apple Inc.’s competi-
`tors and potential future business partners with information about the terms to which Apple Inc.
`agreed in the GTA.
`No means other than the sealing and redaction proposed by Apple Inc. will protect the
`confidential business information in the GTA, the protection of which outweighs the public right
`of access to court records.
