Or, perhaps,

 http://www.isham-research.co.uk/ibm-vs-psi-amended.html

... wherein I see:

   176.

     The Technical Information that IBM disclosed to Amdahl under the TIDA
     and TILA generally was derived from a confidential version of the PoP
     and from other confidential architecture documents. Confidential
     aspects of IBM's architecture disclosed to Amdahl are still
     maintained today in a confidential version of the PoP and in other
     confidential documents.

     PSI admits that the technical information disclosed to Amdahl may
     have initially been derived from a version of the PoP that was
     different from the public version of the PoP. PSI denies the
     remaining allegations of paragraph 176.

Ummm.  IANAL.  Clearly.  It appears that PSI is denying the
existence of certain confidential documents mentioned in the
"remaining allegations".  To do so with confidence, PSI must
have good industrial espionage indeed.  Or is this a legal
tactic to compel IBM to present evidence of the existence of
the putative confidential documents, which evidence might
have collateral benefit to PSI?
