`
`Maclain,
`
`On the first point, for purposes of Intel/Samsung disclosures due on December 11, we will be providing you
`discovery relating to the same set of Intel/Samsung PVD reactors we are identifying for you in venue discovery
`(RMS-PVD reactors that provide, or have the option of providing, (1) pulsed DC to the target and (2) RF bias to
`the substrate) in compliance with what the Local Rules require, as you’ve outlined below. This will include, for
`the method claims, e.g., discovery on the “semiconductor products that include at least one layer of material
`deposited” using a reactor configuration that includes “a pulsed DC power supply coupled to the target area …
`[and] an RF bias power supply coupled to the substrate”. My e-mail was not intending to exclude that
`information, and based on our call just now, I understand you were not intending to broaden the discovery to
`other reactors beyond those with the attributes we agreed upon. I believe we are on the same page, but if I
`have misunderstood again, please let me know.
`
`Thanks for discussing and clarifying the issue on R&D reactors. I don’t expect there to be an issue with
`providing that discovery, but as we discussed, some of the information requested may not be available given
`that those reactors are not currently being used to produce products.
`
` will confirm tomorrow.
`
` I
`
`
`Thanks,
`Phil

`
`Phil,
`
`As we stated, the accused products are identified in our infringement contentions and include more than you
`appear to suggest below. We refer you to the contentions. Similarly, the patents have certain claim
`limitations, and rather than paraphrase them, we again refer you to the contentions (or, if you prefer, the
`patents themselves).
`
`For the purposes of venue discovery, we have agreed to limit the discovery to Intel/Samsung PVD reactors
`with those attributes as discussed. For the purposes of Intel/Samsung disclosures due on December 11, we
`expect the full set of information required by the rules, including “technical documents, including software
`where applicable, sufficient to show the operation of the accused product(s).” This includes, but is not limited
`to, (1) documents sufficient to show the operation of the identified reactors and (2) documents sufficient to
`show the “semiconductor products that include at least one layer of material deposited” using a reactor
`configuration that includes “a pulsed DC power supply coupled to the target area … [and] an RF bias power
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 3 of 13
`
`supply coupled to the substrate” and documents sufficient to show the processes used in the deposition of such
`layers. We also expect “summary, annual sales information for the accused product(s) for the two years
`preceding the filing of the Complaint.” This includes sales of “semiconductor products that include at least
`one layer of material deposited” using a reactor configuration that includes “a pulsed DC power supply
`coupled to the target area … [and] an RF bias power supply coupled to the substrate.”
`
`On the additional issue raised in your email, the accused products include reactors “made, used, imported,
`offered for sale or sold” with the claimed configurations. There is no exception for the making or use of such
`products or processes for “RMS-PVD reactors that are and/or have been only used for research and
`development purposes.” If your client is infringing during research and development, we obviously need
`information about that and you are required to provide it. I understand that you will get back to us tomorrow
`on this issue so that we can raise it with the Court, if necessary.
`
`Thanks,
`Maclain

`Subject: RE: Demaray v. Intel/Samsung - Motion to transfer discovery
`
`Maclain,
`
`Thanks. On your further note of clarification below, based on our meet and confer from last Thursday and
`follow-up discussion on Monday, we agreed that the scope of the accused products/reactors in these actions –
`based on our reading of your infringement contentions – is at least limited to RMS-PVD reactors that provide,
`or have the option of providing, (1) pulsed DC to the target and (2) RF bias to the substrate – and those
`accused methods and reactor configurations are what we plan on providing discovery on. Of course, what is
`accused must also meet the remaining limitations of the claims, but these methods and reactor configurations
`form the baseline requirements of how Samsung and Intel determine what is accused and what to provide
`discovery on for purposes of venue discovery and our local rule disclosures regarding the accused products
`due on December 11.
`
`If we’ve misunderstood that agreement, or the scope of your infringement contentions (e.g., that you are also
`accusing RMS-PVD reactors that do not provide, or have the option of providing pulsed DC to the target
`and/or RF bias to the substrate), please let us know immediately. I do not believe that is what you are
`suggesting by your e-mail, but I wanted to confirm.
`
`Separately, we have one other issue we wanted to clarify with you. Your infringement contentions tie the
`Intel/Samsung Accused Products to the manufacturing of Intel/Samsung products (e.g., microprocessor,
`semiconductor products, etc.). Accordingly, we are currently not planning on collecting information for RMS-
`PVD reactors that are and/or have been only used for research and development purposes (“R&D reactors”),
`meaning they have not been used to manufacture any actual products. If those reactors, during the course of
`these cases, are later used to manufacture products, we will provide discovery on them. We also agree you’re
`not waiving your right to seek discovery about these R&D reactors if appropriate under Rule 26. Please let us
`know if this is acceptable to Demaray, as it impacts the scope of what we are collecting (and likely our 30(b)(6)
`witnesse(s) and scheduling of depositions) if you are seeking discovery on R&D reactors.
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 4 of 13

`
`Happy to discuss either of the above points when we meet and confer at 2 pm for Applied’s NDCA DJ case or
`at another convenient time for you.

`
` A
`

`configurations described below for the purposes of guiding their upcoming document disclosures under the
`Court’s scheduling order, but the accused products in this action, and the infringement allegations related
`thereto, are as described in the respective infringement contentions.
`
`Regarding point (3) in your email below, as we discussed, if a reactor has multiple power sources such that it
`can be configured with a pulsed DC to the target and RF bias to the substrate, Intel/Samsung will provide the
`described venue discovery related thereto. For reactors that Intel/Samsung contend have only a continuous
`DC power supply to the target and a RF bias to the substrate, Intel and Samsung will identify and provide
`manuals for the continuous DC power supplies to substantiate their assertions.

`Subject: RE: Demaray v. Intel/Samsung - Motion to transfer discovery
`
`Phil,
`
`Two minor clarifications:
`
`
`1. For the purposes of the upcoming document disclosures under the Court’s scheduling order regarding
`accused products, products produced with the accused methods and reactor configurations described
`below can guide your production of technical and sales materials. As you noted, we reserve the right
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 5 of 13
`
`to identify additional accused products based upon discovery and to seek other discovery as
`appropriate.
`
`2. For the purposes of venue discovery, the purchase date by quarter/year is sufficient and for dates of
`service and we are looking for general information on the dates and locations of service (e.g.,
`approximately when service began, whether the reactor is still in use (if not, when it stopped), whether
`its location has changed, etc.).

`Subject: RE: Demaray v. Intel/Samsung - Motion to transfer discovery
`
`Maclain,
`
`Thanks for the call. To confirm our discussion:
`
`
`1. The accused products/reactors in these cases are what we’ve agreed to below for venue discovery:
`RMS-PVD reactors that provide, or have the option of providing, (1) pulsed DC to the target and (2) RF
`bias to the substrate; Samsung and Intel will prepare their upcoming initial production under local rules
`for the same scope of accused products/reactors.
`
`2. Demaray is not waiving its right to seek discovery of other reactors or other information from
`Samsung/Intel for other purposes (e.g., to show purported benefits of the accused reactors over other
`non-accused reactors)
`
`3. For reactors that Intel/Samsung contend have (1) continuous DC power to the target and (2) RF bias to
`the substrate, Intel and Samsung will identify and provide manuals for the continuous DC power
`supplies and Demaray will confirm it is not accusing RMS-PVD reactors using those continuous DC
`power supplies. As part of the information provided for the accused products, we will also provide the
`manuals for the pulsed DC power supplies. I anticipate we can produce those to you tomorrow.
`
`4. You requested that for the accused products/reactors used abroad, we provide some way to delineate
`which produced products are bound for the U.S. versus other countries. We will discuss with Intel and
`Samsung and consider how we may be able to provide that information as part of our overall response
`to your requests.
`
`5. Two points from our initial meet and confer that we did not memorialize in our prior e-mail:
`
`
`a. for the purchase date, quarter/year is sufficient;
`
`
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 6 of 13
`
`b. for dates of service, you are looking for general information (e.g., approximately when service
`began, whether the reactor is still in use (if not, when it stopped), whether its location has
`changed, etc.)
`
`
`6. We can provide a description of the type of product(s) beyond the technology node
`
`7. We are unlikely to have depositions next week (more likely the week after Thanksgiving) but we will
`get back to you as soon as possible; and we will not proposed a deposition for Wed., Nov. 25th
`
`8. The draft e-mail below to Hannah is OK for us
`
`If I missed anything, please let us know.

`
`Phil:
`
`Thank you for the response. A few points to clarify. It is our understanding that Samsung/Intel will provide
`the following information regarding RMS-PVD reactors that they have or use to make semiconductor
`products:
`(1) For reactors that provide, or have the option of providing, (1) pulsed DC to the target and (2) RF bias
`to the substrate, Intel and Samsung will identify:
`a. the manufacturer, location, purchase date, and dates of service of each RMS PVD reactor used
`in the production of semiconductor devices in the last six years from the filing of Demaray’s
`Complaint;
`b. the power source(s) configured to be coupled to the target for each PVD chamber meeting the
`above criteria;
`c. the power source(s) configured to be coupled to the substrate for each PVD chamber meeting
`the above criteria;
`d. any filters configured to be used to prevent feedback with or between the respective power
`sources for each PVD chamber meeting the above criteria;
`e. the PVD processes run on the reactors;
`f. the products generally produced using the PVD chamber meeting the above criteria; and,
`g. the types and location of documents regarding the above topics.
`(2) For reactors that Intel/Samsung contend have (1) continuous DC power to the target and (2) RF bias to
`the substrate, Intel and Samsung will identify and provide manuals for both pulsed DC and continuous
`DC power supplies.
`(3) Intel and Samsung will provide documents sufficient to confirm that above information (1)(a)-(f).
`
`
`This agreement is for transfer discovery only and Intel, Samsung and Demaray are not taking positions
`regarding the scope of discovery in general, the meaning of the patent claims, etc.
`
`Can you please:
`(1) Clarify what level of specificity you are suggesting by the language “identify generally the products
`produced by each RMS-PVD reactor”?
`(2) Can you please provide deposition dates on November 23-25 for the corporate designees so that we
`can get approval from the Court on the agreed-upon timing of our opposition?
`(3) To the extent that venue discovery is required from Demaray (and assuming the Intel/Samsung
`promptly identify the requested discovery and that a deposition is requested), we agree that any reply
`briefs will be due one week after the deposition of any corporate designee. This tracks the relative
`timing of the replies from the Court’s standing order. Please confirm that this is acceptable.
`
`
`Let me know if it makes sense to hop on the phone and discuss. I am available all morning.
`
`Thanks,

`
`Maclain, Rick:
`
`Thanks for the call yesterday and your willingness to clarify/limit the scope of discovery based on what
`Demaray is accusing of infringement. This response is on behalf of both Intel and Samsung.
`
`We had proposed limiting discovery to: RMS-PVD reactors using both pulsed DC and RF power supplies,
`since those are clearly required in each of the asserted claims.
`
`To avoid any dispute as to whether an RMS-PVD reactor is using a pulsed DC power supply, we will identify
`and provide manuals for both pulsed DC and continuous DC power supplies so that you can confirm Demaray
`is not accusing RMS-PVD reactors using the continuous DC power supplies. As I mentioned, we will in
`parallel collect the information for RMS-PVD reactors using both pulsed DC and RF power supplies.
`
`We also wanted to clarify that our understanding of the RF power supply requirement is a power supply
`providing an RF bias to the substrate.
`
`If this scope of RMS-PVD reactors is acceptable, we can agree to providing the requested information and
`supporting documents located after a reasonable search and inquiry. We also agree to identify generally the
`products produced by each RMS-PVD reactor, and if you believe further detail is warranted for venue
`discovery, we can confer about that after we’ve provided the information. As mentioned yesterday, our
`investigation and collection efforts are underway, and we’ll have a better sense of how much time we will
`need (e.g., if by next Friday is feasible) once you confirm that the scope we discussed is acceptable.
`
`Please confirm or let us know if you think further discussion or clarification is needed.
`
`On timing/briefing, we agreed to extend your responsive brief to two weeks after the date of the 30(b)(6)
`deposition. Please confirm that Demaray will agree to the same extension for our reply brief. I anticipate we
`will serve our own venue discovery, but will want to complete that after we’ve seen your responsive brief and
`any supporting declarations/evidence.
`
`Thanks,
`Phil

`Maclain -
`
`If it still works for you, let’s plan to meet and confer at 11:30 am PT/1:30 pm CT.
`
`Can you please circulate a dial-in?
`
`I’ve copied Brian. For efficiencies, Samsung and Intel would like to do the meet and confer together if that
`works for you.
`
`Thanks,

`Subject: RE: Demaray v. Intel - Motion to transfer discovery
`
`Maclain,
`
`We are considering your requests for targeted venue discovery and agree we should meet and confer.
`
`We anticipate we will need to meet and confer as the scope of request 1.a. (“each RMS PVD reactor used by
`Intel for the production of semiconductor devices in the last six years from the filing of Demaray’s
`Complaint”) which seeks discovery that goes beyond the scope of Demaray’s infringement contentions. For
`example, every claim identified in the contentions for both asserted patents requires pulsed DC and RF bias
`power supplies, but your request presumably includes RMS PVD reactors that do not use pulsed DC and RF
`bias power supplies. Can you agree to limit the request to RMS PVD reactors using pulsed DC and RF bias
`power supplies? To be clear, this limitation would then also apply to “each reactor” in the remaining topics.
`
`Also some of the information sought does not seem relevant to venue issues and/or more appropriate for
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 11 of 13
`
`regular discovery, such as the products produced by each PVD process on each reactor (portion of request 1.e).
`
`With regards to timing, we do not anticipate being able to collect and provide all of the requested information
`by tomorrow as requested. So that the parties have sufficient time to meet and confer regarding scope and
`complete venue discovery before your deadline to respond to the transfer motion, Intel will not oppose at least
`a two-week extension to file your response.
`
`I’m not available at 4 pm CT today but am generally available tomorrow or Thursday for a call. Can you
`propose a few times and I’ll confer with Steve on what works for us?
`
`Thanks,
`Phil

`Subject: Demaray v. Intel - Motion to transfer discovery
`
`Steve and Phil:
`
`We request that Intel produce the following targeted discovery with respect to venue issues raised by Intel’s
`motion to transfer by the indicated dates:
`
`(1) That Intel identify by Wednesday, November 11:
`a. the manufacturer, location, purchase date, and dates of service of each RMS PVD reactor used by Intel for
`the production of semiconductor devices in the last six years from the filing of Demaray’s Complaint;
`b. the power source(s) configured to be coupled to the target for each PVD chamber in each reactor;
`c. the power source(s) configured to be coupled to the substrate for each PVD chamber in each reactor;
`d. any filters configured to be used to prevent feedback with or between the respective power sources for each
`PVD chamber in each reactor;
`e. the PVD processes run, and products produced by each PVD process, on each reactor; and,
`f. the types and location of documents regarding the above topics.
`
`(2) That Intel provide on Friday, November 13 or Monday, November 16:
`
`
`
`Case 5:20-cv-05676-EJD Document 42-11 Filed 12/07/20 Page 12 of 13
`
`a. Mr. Herrgott for a half-day remote deposition on his declaration and topics therein; and,
`b. an Intel 30(b)(6) designee for a half-day remote deposition on the above topics 1(a)-(f).
`
`To be clear, these depositions will be limited to the topics listed and will not prevent Demaray from seeking
`deposition testimony from Mr. Herrgott or an Intel corporate designee during the full discovery process after
`the Markman hearing. Please let us know if Intel will agree to produce this targeted venue-related discovery or
`if we need to contact the Court to request a telephonic discovery hearing.
`

`Maclain
