Defendants.

For a tutorial for the judge, counsel shall please make presentations to set forth the basic

technology in the public domain and prior art bearing on the trade secrets and patents at issue

on the motion for provisional relief. Please do not refer to the actual systems or subsystems

19

20

please refer only to what is in the public domain or prior art, regardless of whether or not one

21

23

part, even if one side or the other practices it. Make sure that all points in the tutorial reside in

24

books, treatises, articles, public interviews, public videos, blogs, websites, seminars,

25

presentations, Form 10-Ks, or other publicly verifiable sources. Please exchange approximate

26
