Case No. 11-cv-01846-LHK
DECLARATION OF SCOTT HALL IN SUPPORT OF SAMSUNG’S NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION TO
COMPEL APPLE TO RESPOND TO SAMSUNG'S REQUESTS FOR ADMISSION 101-190

1

I, Scott Hall, declare:

2

1.

I am an associate in the law firm of Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP,

3 counsel for Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Samsung Electronics America, Inc., and Samsung
4 Telecommunications America, LLC (collectively “Samsung”). I have personal knowledge of the
5 facts set forth in this declaration and, if called upon as a witness, I could and would testify to such
6 facts under oath.
7

2.

Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of a January 7, 2012 letter

8 sent from D. Hutnyan to M. Mazza. This letters show Samsung’s request that Apple, Inc.
9 ("Apple") answer Samsung's Requests for Admission ("RFAs") nos. 101-190 or, in the alternative,
10 to meet and confer on the topic.
11

3.

Attached hereto as Exhibit B is a true and correct copy of a January 16, 2012 letter

12 from J. Bartlett to D. Hutnyan. This letter concerns Apple's refusal to answer Samsung's RFAs
13 nos. 101-190.
14

4.

On January 16, 2012, on behalf of Samsung, I attended a Lead Counsel Meet and

15 Confer with counsel for Apple. At this meeting, the parties discussed Apple's refusal to answer
16 Samsung's RFAs nos. 101-190. Samsung asked Apple to reverse its position and provide
17 responses. Apple maintained its objections to Samsung's request and the parties were unable to
18 resolve the issue informally.
19

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed in

20 Redwood Shores, California on January 31, 2012.
