JOINT CASE NARROWING STATEMENT

Pursuant to the Court’s instructions at the June 29, 2012 hearing, the parties submit this

1

 statement identifying their further efforts to narrow the list of claims each will assert at trial.


A.



Apple proposes to dismiss without prejudice the remaining claim of the ‘607 patent and the

Apple’s Statement Regarding Claim Narrowing

 trade dress allegations against the original Tab 7.0. Apple also clarifies that it is not accusing the
 F700 of infringing Apple’s trade dress.


B.



Samsung has made significant reductions in the number of claims it is asserting over the

Samsung’s Statement Regarding Claim Narrowing

 course of this action. Samsung initially asserted 12 patents and a total of 75 claims from those
 patents. On May 7, 2012, Samsung reduced the number of patents to 7 and reduced the number of
 claims to 15. (Docket No. 907). Samsung is now willing to further reduce the number of claims it
 will assert at trial to 9 from 6 of its patents.1 Those claims that will be asserted at trial are
 identified below:




U.S. Patent No. 7,675,941 (Claims 10 and 15)





U.S. Patent No. 6,928,604 (Claims 17 and 18)

 on Thursday, July 5, 2012, with respect to the foregoing claims each will no longer assert at the
 July 30, 2012 trial.
