The United States Patent and Trademark Office issued the „231 patent (attached as exhibit A) on July 27, 2010; and the „484 patent (attached as exhibit B) on April 28, 2009. Through assignment, Plaintiff is the owner of all right, title, and interest in the Patents, including all rights to pursue and collect damages for infringement of the Patents. Jurisdiction and Venue 20. This is an action for patent infringement arising under the patent laws of the United States, 35 U.S.C. §§ 271 and 281, et seq. The Court has original jurisdiction over this patent infringement action under 28 U.S.C. § 1338(a). 21. Each of the Defendants has committed acts and continues to commit acts within this judicial district giving rise to this action. Venue is proper in this district pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and § 1400. First Claim for Patent Infringement (Infringement of the ‘231 patent) 22. Plaintiff incorporates by reference each of the allegations in paragraphs 1 - 21 above and further alleges as follows: 23. The United States Patent and Trademark Office issued the „231 patent on July 27, 2010. Plaintiff is the owner of the „231 patent with full rights to pursue recovery of royalties or damages for infringement of said patent, including full rights to recover past and future damages. 24. Without a license or permission from Plaintiff, AT&T has infringed and is continuing to infringe one or more claims of the „231 patent and, unless enjoined, will continue to do so, by making, using, providing, selling, offering for sale, or importing infringing products and services. AT&T‟s infringing products and services include, without limitation, its products 4 and services for determining the locations of wireless mobile devices (e.g., the locations of AT&T subscribers‟ cellular phones). AT&T, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of AT&T‟s products and services. 25. AT&T‟s infringement of the „231 patent has been and continues to be willful. AT&T knew or should have known of a provisional patent application that led to the „231 patent as early as 1996, when Plaintiff contacted AT&T in written correspondence regarding Plaintiff‟s wireless location technology and patent applications; AT&T was then directly informed by Plaintiff in 1998 of the international application that later issued as the „231 patent; and AT&T knew or should have known of the „231 patent upon its issuance. AT&T has disregarded and continues to disregard an objectively high likelihood that its actions constitute infringement of the „231 patent. This objectively-defined risk has been known or so obvious that it should have been known to AT&T. 26. As a result of AT&T‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless AT&T is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 27. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from AT&T to compensate it for AT&T‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 28. Without a license or permission from Plaintiff, MetroPCS has infringed and is continuing to infringe one or more claims of the „231 patent and, unless enjoined, will continue to do so, by making, using, providing, selling, offering for sale, or importing infringing products and services. MetroPCS‟s infringing products and services include, without limitation, 5 its products and services for determining the locations of wireless mobile devices (e.g., the locations of MetroPCS subscribers‟ cellular phones). MetroPCS, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of MetroPCS‟s products and services. 29. As a result of MetroPCS‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless MetroPCS is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 30. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from MetroPCS to compensate it for MetroPCS‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 31. Without a license or permission from Plaintiff, Sprint Nextel has infringed and is continuing to infringe one or more claims of the „231 patent and, unless enjoined, will continue to do so, by making, using, providing, selling, offering for sale, or importing infringing products and services. Sprint Nextel‟s infringing products and services include, without limitation, its products and services for determining the locations of wireless mobile devices (e.g., the locations of Sprint Nextel subscribers‟ cellular phones). Sprint Nextel, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of Sprint Nextel‟s products and services. 32. Sprint Nextel‟s infringement of the „231 patent has been and continues to be willful. Sprint Nextel knew or should have known of a provisional patent application that led to the „231 patent as early as 1996, when Plaintiff contacted Sprint Nextel (or one of its 6 predecessor corporations) regarding its wireless location technology and patent applications; Plaintiff then provided detailed information both orally and in writing regarding its wireless location technology to Sprint Nextel (or one of its predecessor corporations) in 1997 pursuant to a non-disclosure agreement that was executed after Plaintiff had filed the international application that later issued as the „231 patent; and Sprint Nextel (or one of its predecessor corporations) knew or should have known of the „231 patent upon its issuance. Sprint Nextel has disregarded and continues to disregard an objectively high likelihood that its actions constitute infringement of the „231 patent. This objectively-defined risk has been known or so obvious that it should have been known to Sprint Nextel. 33. As a result of Sprint Nextel‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless Sprint Nextel is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 34. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from Sprint Nextel to compensate it for Sprint Nextel‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 35. Without a license or permission from Plaintiff, Verizon has infringed and is continuing to infringe one or more claims of the „231 patent and, unless enjoined, will continue to do so, by making, using, providing, selling, offering for sale, or importing infringing products and services. Verizon‟s infringing products and services include, without limitation, its products and services for determining the locations of wireless mobile devices (e.g., the locations of Verizon subscribers‟ cellular phones). Verizon, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of Verizon‟s products and services. 7 36. Verizon‟s infringement of the „231 patent has been and continues to be willful. Verizon (or one of its predecessor corporations) knew of a provisional patent application that led to the „231 patent as early as 1996, when Plaintiff contacted Verizon (or one of its predecessor corporations) regarding Plaintiff‟s wireless location technology and patent applications; Plaintiff provided additional information regarding its technology to Verizon (or one of its predecessor corporations) in 1997 after Plaintiff had filed the international application that later issued as the „231 patent; and Verizon knew or should have known of the „231 patent upon its issuance. Verizon has disregarded and continues to disregard an objectively high likelihood that its actions constitute infringement of the „231 patent. This objectively-defined risk has been known or so obvious that it should have been known to Verizon. 37. As a result of Verizon‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless Verizon is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 38. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from Verizon to compensate it for Verizon‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 39.

Google, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly 8 contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of Google‟s products and services. 40. As a result of Google‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless Google is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 41. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from Google to compensate it for Google‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 42.

Skyhook, which has knowledge of the „231 patent, has also actively and knowingly contributed to and induced, and continues to actively and knowingly contribute to and induce, infringement by users of Skyhook‟s products and services. 43. As a result of Skyhook‟s infringement of the „231 patent, Plaintiff has been damaged by and will continue to suffer additional, irreparable damage, in an amount not yet determined, and will suffer an impairment of the value of its patent rights unless Skyhook is enjoined from continuing to infringe the „231 patent. 44. Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 281, Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages from Skyhook to compensate it for Skyhook‟s infringement of the „231 patent. 9 Second Claim for Patent Infringement (Infringement of the ‘484 patent) 45. Plaintiff incorporates by reference each of the allegations in paragraphs 1 – 21 above and further alleges as follows: 46. The United States Patent and Trademark Office issued the „484 patent on April 28, 2009. Plaintiff is the owner of the „484 patent with full rights to pursue recovery of royalties or damages for infringement of said patent, including full rights to recover past and future damages. 47.
