OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO INTERROGATORIES
Subject to the foregoing qualifications and General Objections and the specific objections
made below, Apple objects and responds to Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.’s First Set of
Interrogatories to Apple Inc. as follows:
Interrogatory No. 8
6
Separately for each claim or counterclaim APPLE has asserted or will assert, identify and
7
fully describe any and all damages that APPLE is claiming in This Lawsuit and the detailed basis
8
for any such damages claim, including whether APPLE is seeking lost profits or a reasonable
9
royalty and the periods of time over which APPLE claims it has suffered damages. If APPLE is
10
11
12
13
14
15
16
17
seeking lost profits, identify the amount of the alleged lost profits, the computation of the alleged

contends is covered by the APPLE PATENTS-IN-SUIT, each purported lost sale or other item
which forms any part of APPLE’s alleged lost profits, and the time period over which APPLE
claims it is entitled to lost profits. If APPLE is seeking a reasonable royalty, identify the amount
of the reasonable royalty, including any royalty rate expressed in per unit or percentage of
18
revenues terms and the basis for the per unit or percentage used, the computation of the alleged
19
reasonable royalty, and the time period over which APPLE claims it is entitled to lost profits.

Apple objects to this Interrogatory as overbroad, unduly burdensome, and not reasonably

information and/or responses that are dependent on depositions and documents that have not

the disclosure of information, documents, and things protected from disclosure by the attorneyclient privilege, work product doctrine, common interest doctrine, joint defense privilege, or any
6
other applicable privilege, doctrine, or immunity; or (ii) can be obtained as easily by Samsung, is

Apple claims a monetary award as a result of Samsung’s infringement of Apple’s patents.
Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 289, Apple claims Samsung’s total profits from all sales that infringe
Apple’s design patents, together with prejudgment interest. These shall include Samsung’s total
profits based on sales of each of the infringing products and any profits resulting from associated
or reasonably foreseeable sales of other items in connection with or resulting from the sales of
each of the infringing products. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, Apple claims damages adequate to
compensate for Samsung’s infringement of Apple’s design and utility patents, which shall in no
18
event be less than a reasonable royalty for Samsung’s infringement. Apple has lost profits on
19
sales of its products as well as other revenues due to the presence of Samsung’s infringement and
20
the competition by Samsung using Apple’s intellectual property. These lost profits shall include
21
lost profits due to lost sales of iPhone and iPad products. Further, they include lost profits due to
22
price erosion with respect to Apple products and profits lost because Apple did not receive
23
foreseeable downstream sales of additional products and services. A reasonable royalty shall
24
apply to any sales of infringing products that are not proved to have resulted in lost profits.
25
Apple seeks prejudgment interest on any monetary award provided pursuant to section 284.
26
Further, Apples seeks enhanced damages of three times the amount assessed based on Samsung’s
27
misconduct and willful infringement of Apple’s patents.

Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1117, Apple claims a monetary award for Samsung’s
misappropriation of Apple’s trademarks and trade dress, and the dilution of the foregoing. Apple
further claims an award based on Samsung’s common law trademark infringement. Samsung has
wrongly obtained profits by virtue of its infringement and misappropriation and this amount shall
be calculated initially on Samsung’s revenues from sales of all products obtained through and as
6
a foreseeable result of Samsung’s infringement, dilution, and misappropriation. Apple separately
7
claims an award for the damages that it sustained due to Samsung’s infringement, dilution, and
8
misappropriation. These include lost sales of Apple products as well as foreseeable downstream
9
sales of products and services and the expense of remedial, corrective or other steps that Apple
10
11
12
13
14
15
16
17
has had to take in light of Samsung’s infringement. Further, Apple seeks a monetary award for
purposes of future corrective advertising. Pursuant to section 1117, Apple seeks an award
trebling the damages assessed.
Apple has and will have expended costs and reasonable attorneys fees, which it will seek
to recover pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1117 and 35 U.S.C. § 285 because Samsung’s infringement
and misconduct presents an exceptional case.
Based on Samsung’s unfair business practices in violation of California Business and
18
Professions Code § 17200 and Samsung’s unjust enrichment of itself due to misappropriation of
19
Apple’s intellectual property, Apple claims an award restoring to Apply all profits earned as a
20
result of Samsung’s unlawful actions. Apple further claims restitution based on other revenues or
21
benefits wrongly obtained by Samsung due to its violations.
22
Apple also claims damages as a result of Samsung’s anticompetitive conduct and
23
unlawful business acts and practices, including its failure to offer Apple a license on fair,
24
reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms to Samsung’s claimed standards-essential
25
patents. These damages include the expenditure of resources and costs to resolve its licensing
26
dispute with Samsung and defending against Samsung’s patent infringement claims,
27
notwithstanding Apple’s license to those patents by virtue of Samsung’s FRAND commitments.

profits, and lost sales. In addition, pursuant to Section 4 of the Clayton Act and/or Section 16750
6
of the California Business and Professions Code, Apple is entitled to treble the amount of its
7
actual damages suffered as a result of Samsung’s conduct and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and

Supplemental Response to Interrogatory No. 8
Subject to and without waiving the foregoing General and Specific Objections, Apple
responds as follows: Apple also claims damages as a result of Samsung’s breach of contract,
18
anticompetitive conduct and unlawful business acts and practices, including its failure to offer
19
fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) license terms to Samsung’s claimed

Response to Interrogatory No. 13
Apple objects to this Interrogatory as overbroad, unduly burdensome, and not reasonably
calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence, especially to the extent it calls for the
18
identification of the “detailed circumstances” by which Apple became aware of each patent.

Apple objects to this Interrogatory on the grounds that it is overbroad, unduly
6
burdensome, and not reasonably calculated to lead to this discovery of admissible evidence.
7
Apple objects to this Interrogatory as it contains subparts that each should count as a separate

Additionally, in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 33(d), Apple refers to
