America, LLC (collectively, “Samsung”). I am licensed to practice law in the State of California.
I submit this declaration in support of Samsung’s Motion to Compel Samsung to Produce
Documents and Things and Provide Responsive Answers to Propounded Discovery. I have
personal knowledge of the facts set forth in this declaration and, if called upon as a witness, I
9 could and would testify to the following facts.

Motorola-Related Documents
3.
On October 5, 2011, Samsung issued Requests for Production directed to obtaining
materials related to litigations between Apple and Motorola concerning the '002, '607, and '828
16 patents.
Apple failed to respond substantively to these Requests, instead stating that it was
17 “willing to meet and confer.” The parties met and conferred regarding these requests on
18 November 16 and 30, 2011, and in written correspondence on November 10, 20, 27, and 28, and
19 December 3, 2011.

Apple finally produced most of these documents in our case for the first time on
December 1, 2011; however, many documents were found to be missing, including John Elias’
witness statement, testimony and cross-examination; Jeffrey Brown’s witness statement, testimony
24 and cross examination; Martin Simmons’ witness statement; and Staff’s pre-hearing hearing brief
25 in the 750 Investigation. Furthermore, Apple produced only a redacted copy of significant
26 amounts of testimony from that investigation. The redactions demonstrate that the redacted
27
testimony is Apple, and not Motorola confidential information. Samsung informed Apple of the

SuperClock and Mac OS 10.0 Source Code and Working Copies
5.
During the October depositions of Apple’s design inventors, SuperClock and Mac
OS 10.0 were identified as prior art for the ‘891 and ‘002 patents. On November 1, 2011, we
8 first requested the source code for Mac OS 10.0 and SuperClock, and a computer with a functional
9 copy of Mac OS 10.0.
The parties subsequently met and conferred regarding these items on
10 November 2, 9, 16, and 30, and December 7, 2011 and through correspondence on November 8,

10, 15, 20 and December 3, 5, and 6, 2011.

Throughout these discussions, Apple always stated that it was "diligently
searching" for these items, but never actually produced them or give a date certain by which it
15 would produce them. During the parties’ weekly December 7, 2011 meet and confer call,
16 Samsung’s counsel asked Apple’s counsel what had been done to search for these items.
Apple’s
17 counsel again refused to provide any details, and stated only that it would further report what it
18 had done to search for these items on December 15, 2011.

regarding when it would return these materials.

On November 28, 2011, Apple’s counsel finally sent to Samsung’s counsel a letter
in which Apple’s counsel purported to satisfy the Court’s ordered stipulations. In this letter,
Apple stipulated that it had produced the highest quality photographs of

Apple has conceded that the photographs of

However, the Olsen Decl., including these photographs, was filed under seal.
Apple's November 28, 2011 letter also described its search process for higher

requested that Apple produce prior deposition transcripts for inventor witnesses who testified in

Samsung’s counsel memorialized this discussion in a letter

transcripts from prior cases having a "technological nexus" to the patents-in-suit, but it has
15 narrowly defined that term. Apple has refused to produce these deposition transcripts or to

first stated that Harold McElhinny, its lead counsel, was available for an in person meet and confer
23 on December 5-7, 2011. However, Samsung's lead counsel, Charles K. Verhoeven, was then in
24 trial in Washington, D.C., and was not available for an in-person meet and confer at that time.

requirement for itself, which was granted by this Court (D.N. 472).
46.
In a December 10, 2011 letter, Samsung's counsel sought a telephonic lead counsel
8 meet and confer to discuss both parties' issues, and noted that although the Court had excused
