WHEREAS, in order to ensure appropriate safeguards concerning its production of the Elysium documents to the Defendants, SKAT will designate the Elysium documents as Confidential1 under the Protective Order; and

WHEREAS, Defendants acknowledge that, consistent with the limitation on the use of Discovery Material in paragraph [21] of the Protective Order and the principle of data minimization set forth in Article 5(c)(1) of the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation, the Defendants will use the Elysium documents solely for the purpose of these actions or any Foreign Actions.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. SKAT shall produce to Defendants the Elysium Documents in its possession, custody, or control, without withholding or applying redactions to any such documents.
