2. TABLE OF CONTENTS Unicode Compliance Issues Common Language Issues with Large-Volume Discovery Matters Case Studies About TransPerfect Legal Solutions (TLS)

3. UNICODE COMPLIANCE ISSUES • “TransPerfect has conducted hundreds of projects for Weil Gotshal and consistently exceeds our expectations with respect to both accuracy and turnaround time. The broad range of legal support services they offer makes them a valued partner to our firm.” • - Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP

4. CHARACTER SETS A character set serves as the framework for recording, storing, and displaying a linguistic keystroke. Think Morse Code and a Telegraph. Keystrokes are stored as binary codes, when a file is opened, the codes are interpreted and redisplayed.

5. WHAT’S THE PROBLEM There are hundreds of different character sets in existence. Character sets developed regionally and there was little standardization. The incompatibility of different character sets can lead to misinterpretation of the author’s original text.

6. YOU SAY TOMATO, I SAY ÿþÈ0Þ0È0 TOMATO in Japanese is properly displayed as トマト. When an ASCII or ANSI based program that is not Unicode compliant attempts to read the above text, ÿþÈ0Þ0È0 is displayed. Shift-JIS (a popular Japanese character set) interprets the above text as ﾈ0ﾞ0ﾈ0 .

7. PROBLEMS PERTINENT TO DISCOVERY Problems can range from the loss of a minor capability to a complete breakdown in process. Discovery often involves legacy data, created on old programs that may use non-standard character encodings. Review applications must support Unicode load files, or else field delimitation will fail.

8. HOW TO ANTICIPATE AND RESOLVECHARACTER SET PROBLEMS Make sure that processing steps support needed functionality. Datasets containing reviewable data created by obscure or proprietary software applications must be handled on a case by case basis with compliance testing performed by linguists. Functionality of all applications that will be handling the data should be tested to ensure that desired functionality is maintained.

9. COMMON LANGUAGE ISSUES WITH LARGE-VOLUME E-DISCOVERY MATTERS • “I have only good things to say regarding this project - everything was done on time and with great quality. My main contact person at your company is great - he accommodates all my requests and is always a pleasure to work with.” • – White & Case LLP

10. COMMON LANGUAGE ISSUES IN E-DISCOVERY • Keeping costs down when translating numerous files (that are images), some of which contain content that may not be relevant to the case • Solution 1 (other LSPs): translate all content, charge for all translated words • Solution 2 (TLS): on-site bilingual document reviewers may assist in reviewing content, answering attorney or review questions, which allow clients to cull the material to a more manageable size, eliminating unnecessary content for submission into translation. Bilingual staffing needs may also be provided for larger cases, with global support available.

11. COMMON LANGUAGE ISSUES IN E-DISCOVERY Exporting documents for translation from review tool and importing translated version in an efficient, convenient way. Solution 1 (other LSPs): attorney marks document(s) for translation, lit support exports source doc(s), sends them to LSP, LSP translates them and sends them back to lit support in MS Word, lit support enters into load file, and uploads to review tool. Solution 2 (TLS but not CI): same as above except our technical expertise enables us to deliver translation ready to go in load file. Reduces work lit support has to do Solution 3 (CI): attorney marks document for translation, the request goes directly to TLS for translation, and TLS uploads the translated version. Frees up firm resources to work on other project.

12. COMMON LANGUAGE ISSUES IN E-DISCOVERY Keeping costs down when translating numerous files, some of which contain repetitive emails strings from one file to the next Solution 1 (other LSPs): charge for all translated words, including repeats Solution 2 (TLS): pre-flight files/conduct first pass review to identify which bates ranges are identical/near identical across the files. Cluster those respective identical files and delegate to translators so that all email duplicates are with one translator, resulting in one translation being produced and leveraged for each duplicate. Charge for only new text and project management (a fraction of the cost of charging duplicates as new text). This also, perhaps more importantly than cost, ensures consistency across all duplicates.

13. CASE STUDIES • “My account manager contacted me the same day I sent an email requesting translation, and the turnaround was great!  He was very courteous and professional in his dealings with me.  I have had nothing but positive experiences working with TransPerfect, and I will recommend this company to anyone needing a translation within my firm.” • –Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP

14. CASE STUDY: Debevoise & Plimpton To prepare the necessary evidence for a major international litigation, Debevoise & Plimpton partnered with TransPerfect for a range of services. The Challenge: Debevoise had hundreds of thousands of pages of potential evidence in Japanese that would need to be read in-language and sorted for relevancy The case would require over a year of intense, ongoing translation services The Solution: Over the course of 14 months, over 40 translators worked on-site on a rotating basis providing document identification and translation Our in-house production department provided certified English into Japanese translations and vice versa as needed; they also managed the creation of translation memory glossaries, enabling greater efficiency and reducing costs When litigation began, we provided interpretation services in order for all involved parties to communicate effectively

15. CASE STUDY: Sutherland, Asbill & Brennan SAB was chosen to represent a US company in the litigation of a major intellectual property case involving a German corporation. From the outset, it was obvious that language services would play a crucial role. The Challenge: SAB would need interpreters at the New York and Munich depositions of German-Speaking witnesses Over 200,000 words in hundreds of highly technical documents would need to be translated from German and French into English For the documents to be valid in court, SAB had to provide evidence that the translations were accurate and unbiased The Solution: We provided native-speaking linguists with legal expertise to complete the translations, meeting all in-country deadlines To ensure the translations would hold up in court, we furnished signed and notarized affidavits attesting to our ISO 9001:2000 certification We provided legal interpreters on-site for depositions To meet SAB’s court reporting needs, we arranged to have a US-trained court reporter attend the sessions in Munich
