WHEREAS, Defendant Musk is the Chairman of X Corp., formerly Twitter, Inc. WHEREAS, X Corp. believes that the scope of anticipated testimony that Plaintiffs have disclosed for each of the above witnesses will implicate Twitter’s attorney-client privileged communications and work product from 2022. WHEREAS, such privileged information now belongs to X Corp. as a result of the 2022 merger and the express terms of the April 25, 2022 Merger Agreement. WHEREAS, X Corp. has filed a Motion To Intervene Under Rule 24 (“Motion to Intervene”) for the limited purpose of protecting X Corp.’s privileged information in connection with the upcoming trial. WHEREAS, Defendant Musk consents to X Corp.’s Motion to Intervene. WHEREAS, Plaintiffs do not believe their questioning of witnesses will elicit privileged information, believe that any participation by X Corp. at or in connection with trial will unduly complicate the proceedings, and oppose X Corp.’s Motion to Intervene.
