Previously, the Court informed the parties that, as an initial matter, it was not inclined to

16

construe any more than twenty terms total, possibly fewer. The Court also informed the parties that

17

they should meet and confer to determine which twenty terms they consider to be most significant.

18

For those twenty terms, the Court now instructs the parties to provide additional information.

19

More specifically, for each term, the parties should provide:

20

(1)

A statement as to why the term needs to be construed (i.e., why it is significant); and

21

(2)

A statement as to how the term relates to claims or defenses that will be presented at trial or

22

in relation to a dispositive motion.
