Subject: Apple v. Samsung; Motion to Compel
Dear Calvin,
In a further effort to resolve the matters raised in Apple’s Motion to Compel concerning documents from
other litigations, Samsung is willing to agree to the following:
Samsung agrees to produce by April 5 non‐privileged documents, if any, that it is able to locate
after conducting a reasonable search, responsive to the following categories of documents for
litigation in the US and foreign jurisdictions, excluding any responsive discovery motions, filings
by third parties, and documents prepared by nontestifying experts:
Documents, including briefing not publicly available on Pacer, deposition or other
testimony of Samsung’s current or former employees or its testifying experts, and reports
prepared by Samsung’s testifying experts, relating to or containing any claims or
statements by Samsung in any litigation or judicial proceeding, regarding the
determination of a FRAND royalty rate for any IPR that is claimed Essential to any ETSI
Wireless Standard, and the propriety of injunctive relief for the infringement of IPR claimed
to be Essential to any ETSI Wireless Standard.
As to Apple’s Request No. 134, as indicated in Rachel Herrick Kassabian’s February 16, 2012 letter to you,
Samsung previously offered to produce its non‐privileged responsive “business plans, strategy
documents, financial projections and licensing plans that are applicable to patents that have been
1
declared essential to the UMTS specifications identified in Apple’s answers and counterclaims (25.212,
25.213, 25.214, and 25.322).”
Apple accepted this proposal but seeks clarification as to the scope of production. Specifically, Apple
wants to know if Samsung intends to include in its production only business plans, strategy documents,
financial projections and licensing plans that, by their terms, apply only to patents declared essential to
UMTS specifications identified in Apple’s answer and counterclaims. To be clear, Samsung will produce
by April 5 its non‐privileged, responsive business plans, strategy documents, financial projections and
licensing plans, located after a reasonable search, that are applicable to patents that have been declared
essential to the UMTS specifications identified in Apple’s answer and counterclaim, even if those business
plans and other responsive documents also apply to other patents, to UMTS generally and/or to 3G
generally. Of course, Samsung reserves the right to make redactions as appropriate to protect its
confidential, proprietary information and/or trade secrets.
I trust that the proposals set forth in this email adequately address the issues raised in Apple’s Motion to
Compel. Please let me know if Apple is willing to accept Samsung’s proposals and take its Motion to
Compel off calendar. In light of the filing deadline for Samsung’s Opposition papers, I would appreciate it
if you would respond by the close of business today.
Regards,
Randa Osman
