INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the Northern District of California’s Patent Local Rule 4-2 and the Court’s

13

Minute Order and Case Management Order (Dkt. No. 187), Plaintiff and Counterclaim-Defendant

14

Apple Inc. (“Apple”) hereby provides its preliminary claim constructions for the proposed terms

15

identified by Apple on October 17, 2011, and the proposed terms identified by Samsung

16

Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics America, Inc. and Samsung Telecommunications

17

America, LLC (collectively, “Samsung”) on October 24, 2011. In addition, for the proposed

18

terms that are governed by 35 U.S.C. § 112(6), Apple identifies the corresponding structures,

19

acts, or materials corresponding to those terms’ functions.

20

Apple bases these constructions upon its current knowledge, understanding, and belief as

21

to the facts and information available as of this date. As Apple has not yet completed its

22

investigation, collection of information, or discovery relating to this action, it expressly reserves

23

the right to supplement, amend, and/or otherwise modify these preliminary claim constructions.

24

Apple also reserves the right to modify and amend these constructions and to supplement the

25

intrinsic and extrinsic evidence supporting its constructions in light of Samsung’s belated

26

identification of its proposed terms for construction.

27

Together with its preliminary claim constructions, and in accordance with Patent Local

28

Rule 4-2(b), Apple is producing extrinsic evidence supporting its claim constructions, bearing
