RE: Apple v. Samsung: Discovery Correspondence - Stipulation to Proceed on Shortened
Time
Purple Category

Dear Mia, 

As we have stated before, Samsung is agreeable to producing the categories of documents set forth below, subject to 
Samsung’s objections as discussed in its written responses and during prior meet and confer calls, thus obviating any 
need for motion practice.  Due to technical constraints, logistical and translation issues, limited availability issues due to 
the upcoming holiday season, and the sheer volume of materials being demanded by Apple for expedited production, 
we have inserted more feasible dates into the list in your email below, as follows:   

• Samsung will make a good‐faith, expedited effort to locate and substantially complete, by December 31, 2011, 
its production of “Apple” and survey documents,  

• Samsung will make a good‐faith, expedited effort to locate and substantially complete, by December 31, 2011, 
its production of certain categories of source code as described in your December 6, 2011 letter; 

• Samsung will make a good‐faith, expedited effort to locate and substantially complete, by January 6, 2012, its 
production of sketchbooks and physical models for Galaxy phone and tablet products; and 

• Samsung will make a good‐faith, expedited effort to locate and substantially complete, by January 6, 2012, its 
production of CAD files created in connection with the design of Galaxy phone and tablet products. 

To avoid the need for any motion practice on these same issues by Samsung against Apple, please confirm by the close 
of business today that Apple will make the same good‐faith effort to produce these same categories of documents (as 
requested by Samsung) by the dates listed above. 

Thanks, 
Melissa
