UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA NORFOLK DIVISION __________________________________________ ) I/P ENGINE, INC., ) ) Plaintiff, ) v. ) Civ. Action No. 2:11-cv-512 ) AOL, INC. et al., ) ) Defendants. ) __________________________________________) PLAINTIFF I/P ENGINE INC.’S NOTICE OF CALCULATION OF PREJUDGMENT INTEREST As a prevailing plaintiff in a patent infringement action, I/P Engine, Inc. (“I/P Engine”) is presumptively entitled to prejudgment interest on the damages awarded. As the Supreme Court stated in General Motors Corp. v. Devex Corp., 461 U.S. 648, 657 (1983), “prejudgment interest should ordinarily be awarded absent some justification for withholding such an award.” No justification exists for departing from the principle that prejudgment interest “is the rule, not the exception” and “serves to make the patent owner whole, for damages properly include the foregone use of money of which the patentee was wrongly deprived.” Sensonics, Inc. v. Aerosonic Corp., 81 F.3d 1566, 1574 (Fed. Cir. 1996); see alsoEcolab, Inc. v. FMC Corp., 569 F.3d 1335, 1353 (Fed. Cir. 2009) (“[w]hen a patentee asserts a patent claim that is held to be valid and infringed, prejudgment interest is generally awarded.”). Only with the award of prejudgment interest will I/P Engine be fully compensated for Defendants’ infringement of I/P Engine’s patents. Consistent with this Court’s decision in the ActiveVideo Networks, Inc. v. Verizon Comms., Inc. 2011 WL 4899922, *6-7 (E.D.VA. 2011), I/P Engine requests that the Court award prejudgment interest at the prime rate compounded quarterly from September 15, 2011 until the date judgment is entered. I/P Engine’s calculation of prejudgment interest based upon the total compensatory damages award set forth in Verdict Form, III.C. is $643,084. See Exhibit A, attached hereto, for I/P Engine’s prejudgment-interest calculations.1 Dated: November 7, 2012 By: /s/ Jeffrey K. Sherwood Donald C. Schultz (Virginia Bar No. 30531) W.
