Pursuant to Patent Local Rules 3-1 and 3-2, Plaintiff Apple Inc. (“Apple”) hereby submits
the following Disclosure of Asserted Claims and Infringement Contentions.
3
Discovery has just begun, and Apple has outstanding discovery requests on Defendants
4
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung
5
Telecommunications America, LLC (collectively, “Samsung”) seeking information that may
6
affect Apple’s infringement contentions. Not all information about the Accused Instrumentalities
7
is publicly available. Further still, Apple understands that Samsung may release products in the
8
near future that infringe the asserted claims.
9
As such, Apple’s investigation into the extent of infringement by Samsung is ongoing,
10
and Apple makes these disclosures based on its current knowledge. In light of the foregoing,
11
Apple reserves the right to supplement or amend these disclosures as further facts are revealed
12
during the course of this litigation.

DISCLOSURE OF ASSERTED CLAIMS AND INFRINGEMENT
CONTENTIONS.
A.
Patent Local Rule 3-1(a) — Asserted Claims.
Samsung is liable under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a)-(c) and (g) for infringement of:
16
•
Claims 1-4, 6, 7, 9-20, 25-29, 31, 32, 34-45 & 50 of United States Patent No.
17
6,493,002 (“the ’002 patent”) (infringement claim chart attached as Exhibits 1-3);
18
•
Claims 1-20 of United States Patent No. 7,469,381 (“the ’381 patent”)
19
(infringement claim charts attached as Exhibits 4-6);

22
claim charts attached as Exhibits 7-9);
23
•

(“the ’828 patent”) (infringement claim chart attached as Exhibit 16);
•
3
4
Claims 1-3, 6-8, 10 & 11 of United States Patent No. 7,663,607 (“the ’607
patent”) (infringement claim chart attached as Exhibit 17); and
•
5
Claims 1-3, 5, 7, 9-12, 14, 16-19, 21, 22, 24-26 & 28 of United States Patent No.

Apple’s investigation is ongoing, and Apple reserves the right to identify additional
asserted claims based upon continued discovery and investigation.

The following Accused Instrumentalities infringe the asserted claims:

Exhibit 20 discloses which claims of each asserted patent that each Accused
27
Instrumentality infringes based on Apple’s investigation thus far. Apple’s investigation is
28
APPLE INC.’S DISCLOSURE OF ASSERTED CLAIMS & INFRINGEMENT CONTENTIONS
CASE NO. 11-CV-01846-LHK
2
1
ongoing, and Apple reserves the right to identify additional accused instrumentalities based upon
2
continued discovery and investigation.
3
C.
4
Attached as Exhibits 1-20 are claim charts that identify where each element of each
5
asserted claim of the asserted patents is found within the Accused Instrumentalities, based on the
6
information available to Apple.
7
Patent Local Rule 3-1(c) — Claim Charts for the Accused Instrumentalities.
The infringement evidence cited in these charts is exemplary and not exhaustive. Based
8
on information currently known to Apple, Apple alleges that each of the Accused
9
Instrumentalities infringes Apple’s asserted claims in the same manner as disclosed in the
10
exemplary claim charts, Exhibits 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 16 & 17, as limited by Exhibit 20. Thus,
11
Exhibits 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 16 & 17 apply equally to all the Accused Instrumentalities that do not
12
have a corresponding chart, as limited by Exhibit 20. For example, the Acclaim infringes claims
13
1, 3-5, 7, 8, 10-12, 14, 15, 17-19 & 21 of the ’915 patent (see Exhibit 20) in the same manner as
14
the Galaxy S 4G, as shown in Exhibit 15.
15
16
Apple’s investigation is ongoing, and Apple reserves the right to amend or supplement
these claim charts based upon continued discovery and investigation.
17
D.
18
Samsung induces the infringement of others under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b) to the extent it
19
contracts, instructs, or otherwise induces others to make, use, offer to sell, sell, or import the
20
Accused Instrumentalities within or into the United States. Samsung also contributes to the
21
infringement of others under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c) to the extent it offers to sell, sells, or imports part
22
or all of the Accused Instrumentalities within or into the United States.
Patent Local Rule 3-1(d) — Indirect Infringement.
23
To the extent Samsung’s direct infringement is based on joint acts of multiple parties, the
24
role of each such party is described according to Apple’s current understanding in Exhibits 1-20.
25
Apple’s investigation is ongoing, and Apple accordingly reserves the right to amend or
26
supplement these assertions based upon continued discovery and investigation.

Based on Apple’s current understanding, each element or limitation of each asserted claim
Patent Local Rule 3-1(e) — Nature of Infringement.
3
of each asserted patent is literally present in the Accused Instrumentalities, except where
4
explicitly indicated. To the extent that any element or limitation of the asserted claims is not
5
found to have literal correspondence in the Accused Instrumentalities, Apple alleges, on
6
information and belief, that any such elements or limitations are present under the doctrine of
7
equivalents in the Accused Instrumentalities.

19
2007; 60/879,253, filed January 7, 2007; and 60/824,769, filed September 6, 2006.
The asserted claims of the ’828 patent claim priority to application nos. 11/015,434 (U.S.
20
21
7,339,580), filed December 17, 2004 and 09/236,513 (U.S. 6,323,846), filed January 25, 1999,
22
and provisional application no. 60/072,059, filed January 26, 1998.
The asserted claims of the ’915, ’607, and ’129 patents do not “claim[] priority to an
23
24
earlier application” under Patent L.R. 3-1(f).
For each asserted claim, Apple reserves the right to claim priority to earlier invention

The basis of Apple’s claim of willful infringement is set forth in Apple’s Amended
Patent Local Rule 3-1(h) — Willful Infringement.
7
Complaint filed June 16, 2011. Samsung slavishly copied Apple’s famous iPhone and iPad
8
designs and patented features. Samsung continued to do so despite Apple’s demand, made no
9
later than July 2010, that Samsung stop its infringing activity.
10
Before initiating this lawsuit, Apple had a series of in-person meetings with Samsung.
11
Apple illustrated Samsung’s ongoing infringement in detail. For instance, on August 4, 2010,
12
Apple representatives made a presentation entitled “Samsung's Use of Apple Patents in
13
Smartphones.” This presentation has been produced to Samsung at APLNDC00001103-1125.
