SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER; CONTAINS HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
OUTSIDE ATTORNEY’S EYES ONLY INFORMATION
1
In accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 33(d), Apple refers to the following
2
documents because the burden of deriving or ascertaining the answer to this Interrogatory from
3
the produced business records is substantially the same for Apple as for Samsung: APLNDC-
4
X0000007220, APLNDC00013715, and APLNDC00013690.
5
INTERROGATORY NO. 7:
6
Separately for each of the APPLE PATENTS-IN-SUIT, APPLE TRADE DRESS and
7
APPLE TRADEMARKS state all facts supporting any contention by APPLE that Samsung has
8
willfully infringed, diluted, or falsely designated the origin of its products for each patent, trade
9
dress, and trademark, including when and how APPLE asserts Samsung had actual notice of the
10
APPLE PATENTS-IN-SUIT, APPLE TRADE DRESS, and APPLE TRADEMARKS.
11
OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 7:
12
Apple objects to this Interrogatory as overbroad, unduly burdensome, and not reasonably
13
calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Apple objects to this Interrogatory as
14
premature to the extent that it: (a) conflicts with the schedule entered by the Court, (b) conflicts
15
with the obligations imposed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Civil Local Rules
16
and/or the Patent Local Rules of this Court, and/or any other applicable rule; (c) seeks
17
information that is the subject of expert testimony; (d) seeks information and/or responses that are
18
dependent on the Court’s construction of the asserted claims of the patents-in-suit; or (e) seeks
19
information and/or responses that are dependent on depositions and documents that have not been
20
taken or produced. Apple further objects to this Interrogatory to the extent it seeks information
21
that: (i) requires the disclosure of information, documents, and things protected from disclosure
22
by the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, common interest doctrine, joint defense
23
privilege, or any other applicable privilege, doctrine, or immunity; (ii) would require Apple to
24
draw a legal conclusion to respond; (iii) is outside of Apple’s possession, custody, or control; or
25
(iv) can be obtained as easily by Samsung, is already in Samsung’s possession, or is publicly
26
available.

28
Subject to and incorporating its General Objections and its specific objections, Apple
responds as follows:
APPLE’S CORRECTED AMENDED OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO SAMSUNG’S INTERROGATORY NOS. 4, 6, 7,

SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER; CONTAINS HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
OUTSIDE ATTORNEY’S EYES ONLY INFORMATION
1
Samsung manufactured, distributed, imported into the United States, used in the United
2
States, offered for sale in the United States, and sold in the United States products that infringed
3
the Apple patents, trade dress, and trademarks at issue in this lawsuit despite an objectively high
4
likelihood that its actions constituted infringement of valid patents, trade dress, and trademarks.
5
Moreover, this objectively high likelihood of infringement was known to Samsung, or so obvious
6
that it should have been known to Samsung. Samsung’s objectively reckless infringement of the
7
Apple patents, trade dress, and trademarks at issue in this lawsuit began before Apple commenced
8
this action and continues to this day. There is no objectively reasonable non-infringement
9
argument with respect to the accused products; nor is there any objectively reasonable argument
10
that the Apple patents, trade dress, and trademarks at issue in this lawsuit are invalid.
11
For instance, starting in July 2010, Apple representatives provided notice to Samsung that
12
it infringed Apple’s patents and designs. On or about August 4, 2010, Apple representatives met
13
with Samsung in Korea and showed a presentation titled “Samsung’s Use of Apple Patents in
14
Smartphones.” This presentation emphasized Samsung’s copying of the iPhone and identified
15
two of the patents-in-suit (the ‘002 and ‘381 patents), giving Samsung actual notice of at least
16
these patents, and many more.
17
On or about August 26, 2010, Apple sent Samsung an electronic archive file containing
18
claim charts further illustrating Samsung’s infringement of Apple patents. A presentation
19
document that accompanied these claim charts identified the ‘002 and ‘381 patents as two patents
20
that Samsung products infringed, and it substantiated these allegations with text from the patents
21
and photographs of Samsung devices illustrating infringing functionality. Apple later presented
22
these slides to Samsung at a meeting in Cupertino, California on or about September 9, 2010.
23
Moreover, even after Samsung indisputably had actual notice of its infringement of all of
24
the Apple patents-in-suit as a result of the filing of this lawsuit, it continued the development,
25
manufacture, importation, distribution and sale of electronic devices as to which there was no
26
objectively reasonable theory of non-infringement. Samsung continues its willful infringing
27
activities to the present.

During the August 4, 2010 presentation mentioned above, Apple also informed Samsung
that Samsung’s smart phones were infringing Apple’s designs.
Moreover, with respect to the design patents-in-suit, and specifically with respect to
4
D’889, Samsung was aware of this patent at least as early as April 14, 2008 when it was cited
5
during the prosecution of U.S. Design Patents Nos. D578,983 and D583,342, which are assigned
6
to Samsung. The D’889 was also cited during the prosecution of U.S. Design Patents
7
Nos. D632,688 and D635,976. Specifically with respect to the D’790 patent, Samsung was aware
8
of this patent at least as early as February 3, 2011 when it was cited during the prosecution of
9
U.S. Design Patent No. D634,734, which is assigned to Samsung. Specifically with respect to the
10
D’305 patent, Samsung was aware of this patent at least as early as November 27, 2009 when it
11
was cited during the prosecution of U.S. Design Patent No. D618,700, which is assigned to
12
Samsung. Moreover, there is substantial evidence of Samsung’s copying of Apple’s iPhone and
13
iPad products, as shown by the numerous design similarities between Apple’s and Samsung’s
14
phone and tablet products.
15
Furthermore, with respect to the trade dress and trademarks asserted in the lawsuit, Apple
16
announced the original iPhone on January 9, 2007 and released the product on June 29, 2007;
17
Apple announced the iPhone 3G on June 9, 2008 and released the product on July 11, 2008;
18
Apple announced the iPhone 3GS on June 8, 2009 and released the product on June 19, 2009; and
19
Apple announced the iPhone 4 on June 7, 2010 and released the product on June 24, 2010.
20
Samsung was put on notice of Apple’s distinctive Original iPhone Trade Dress, iPhone 3G Trade
21
Dress, iPhone 4 Trade Dress, and iPhone Trade Dress upon the announcements of these
22
respective products. Samsung was put on notice of the trade dress shown in the Trade Dress
23
Registrations upon the announcement of the original iPhone. Samsung was put on notice of the
24
trade dress shown in U.S. Application Serial No. 85/299,118 upon the announcement of the
25
iPhone 4. Apple announced the iPad on January 27, 2010 and released the product on April 3,
26
2010, and Apple announced the iPad 2 on March 2, 2011 and released the product on March 11,
27
2011. Samsung was put on notice of Apple’s distinctive iPad Trade Dress and the trade dress
28
shown in U.S. Application Serial Nos. 77/921,838, 77/921,829, and 77/921,869 upon the
