had concluded, the Court lifted the stay as Riverbed’s asserted patents;

WHEREAS, on December 4, 2014, Silver Peak filed an administrative motion to construe
more than ten terms;
WHEREAS, on December 16, 2014, Riverbed filed an amended complaint, adding a
claim for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 7,336,682;
WHEREAS, the parties were scheduled to submit a joint claim construction chart for the
two previously-asserted Riverbed patents on December 18, 2014;
WHEREAS, in light of Riverbed’s amended complaint, which asserts a claim for

13

infringement of a previously-unasserted patent, the Parties agree that moving forward with the

14

current claim construction deadlines would result in needless duplication of efforts on the part of

15

the Parties and the Court, including multiple Markman hearings;

16

WHEREAS, the Parties agree that the most efficient manner to proceed would be to

17

vacate the Joint Case Management Statement and all dates therein and enter a new schedule, to

18

allow the Parties to conduct the necessary investigation and disclosures relating to the newly-

19

asserted ’682 patent;

20

WHEREAS, in light of the newly-asserted patent and the need to propose additional terms

21

for construction, the Parties agree that Silver Peak’s motion to construe more than ten terms

22

should be withdrawn, without prejudice to re-file the motion at the appropriate time, if necessary,

23

addressing the proposed terms for construction of all of the patents-in-suit;

24

WHEREAS, the Parties agree that a status conference should be held to set a case

25

schedule, including without limitation new deadlines for compliance with the Court’s Patent

26

Local Rules;

27
28

WHEREAS, the Parties agree that Silver Peak shall have until January 30, 2015 to
respond to Riverbed’s amended complaint;
