`
`BELL NORTHERN RESEARCH LLC’S DISCLOSURE OF ASSERTED CLAIMS AND INFRINGEMENT CONTENTIONS
`
`
`
`U.S. Patent No. 6,696,941 – HMD America, Inc. and HMD Global Oy
`Claims 1, 3, 6, 10, 12, 15
`Bell Northern Research, LLC (“BNR”) provides evidence of infringement of at least claims 1, 3, 6, 10, 12, and 15 of U.S. Patent No.
`6,696,941 (hereinafter “the ’941 patent”) by HMD America, Inc. and HMD Global Oy (“Defendant”). In support thereof, BNR provides the
`following claim charts.
`“Accused Instrumentalities” as used herein refers to at least the Nokia 8.3 5G, Nokia XR20, Nokia G10, Nokia G20, Nokia G50, and the Nokia
`9 PureView. These claim charts demonstrate Defendant’s infringement by comparing each element of the asserted claims to corresponding components,
`aspects, and/or features of the Accused Instrumentalities. These claim charts are not intended to constitute an expert report on infringement. These
`claim charts include information provided by way of example, and not by way of limitation.
`The analysis set forth below is based only upon information from publicly available resources regarding the Accused Instrumentalities, as
`Defendant has not yet provided any non-public information. An analysis of Defendant’s (or other third parties’) technical documentation and/or
`software source code may assist in fully identifying all infringing features and functionalities. Accordingly, BNR reserves the right to supplement this
`infringement analysis once such information is made available to BNR. Furthermore, BNR reserves the right to revise this infringement analysis, as
`appropriate, upon issuance of a court order construing any terms recited in the asserted claims.
`BNR provides this evidence of infringement and related analysis without the benefit of claim construction or expert reports or discovery. BNR
`reserves the right to supplement, amend or otherwise modify this analysis and/or evidence based on any such claim construction or expert reports or
`discovery.
`
`Unless otherwise noted, BNR contends that Defendant directly infringes the ’941 patent in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) by selling, offering
`to sell, making, using, and/or importing the Accused Instrumentalities. The following exemplary analysis demonstrates that infringement. Unless
`otherwise noted, BNR further contends that the evidence below supports a finding of indirect infringement under 35 U.S.C. §§ 271(b) and/or (c), in
`conjunction with other evidence of liability under one or more of those subsections. Defendant makes, uses, sells, imports, or offers for sale in the
`United States, or has made, used, sold, imported, or offered for sale in the past, without authority, or induces others to make, use, sell, import, or offer
`for sale in the United States, or has induced others to make, use, sell, import, or offer for sale in the past, without authority products, equipment, or
`services that infringe claims 1, 3, 6, 10, 12, and 15 of the ’941 patent, including without limitation, the Accused Instrumentalities.
`
`Unless otherwise noted, BNR believes and contends that each element of each claim asserted herein is literally met through Defendant’s
`provision of the Accused Instrumentalities. However, to the extent that Defendant attempts to allege that any asserted claim element is not literally
`met, BNR believes and contends that such elements are met under the doctrine of equivalents. More specifically, in its investigation and analysis of
`the Accused Instrumentalities, BNR did not identify any substantial differences between the elements of the patent claims and the corresponding
`features of the Accused Instrumentalities, as set forth herein. In each instance, the identified feature of the Accused Instrumentalities performs at
`least substantially the same function in substantially the same way to achieve substantially the same result as the corresponding claim element.

`
`BELL NORTHERN RESEARCH LLC’S DISCLOSURE OF ASSERTED CLAIMS AND INFRINGEMENT CONTENTIONS
`To the extent the chart of an asserted claim relies on evidence about certain specifically identified Accused Instrumentalities, BNR asserts that,
`on information and belief, any similarly functioning instrumentalities also infringe the charted claim. BNR reserves the right to amend this infringement
`analysis based on other products made, used, sold, imported, or offered for sale by Defendant. BNR also reserves the right to amend this infringement
`analysis by citing other claims of the ’941 patent, not listed in the claim chart, that are infringed by the Accused Instrumentalities. BNR further reserves
`the right to amend this infringement analysis by adding, subtracting, or otherwise modifying content in the “Accused Instrumentalities” column of each
`chart.
