`
`In accordance with Paragraph 6 of the Joint Proposed Case Management Plan (D.I. 137-1)
`
`and Local Patent Rule 7, Defendants Google LLC and YouTube, LLC (collectively, “Defendants")
`
`provide the following Supplemental Invalidity Contentions to Plaintiff Network-1 Technologies,
`
`Inc. ("Network-1"). The exclusion of any prior art reference, software, or system from this
`
`disclosure does not constitute an admission that such reference does not anticipate and/or render
`
`obvious one or more claims of the asserted patents. Additionally, to the extent that prior art
`
`software or systems embody or are related to the printed patents or publications recited in this
`
`disclosure, Defendants reserve the right to assert the individual printed patents or publications
`
`listed in this pleading, as well as any related prior art software or systems. Defendants reserve the
`
`right to supplement or amend this disclosure at any time, including but not limited to the right to
`
`supplement or amend this disclosure in response to further discovery, further analysis, further prior
`
`art searching, the assertion of additional claims by Network-1, Network-1's litigation positions,
`
`Network-1's proposed claim constructions, or the Court's claim construction ruling.
`
`At this time, Defendants supplement their prior invalidity contentions to include the
`
`

`U.S. Patent No. 8,010,988

`
`claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,010,988 are invalid under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103 (Anticipation and
`
`Obviousness), because the following system(s), either individually or in combination with other
`
`prior art references identified by Defendants, disclose all elements of the asserted claims:
`
` The Relatable FreeAmp audio identification system, including when used in conjunction
`with the MusicBrainz audio information database.
`
`
`U.S. Patent No. 8,205,237

`
`claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,205,237 are invalid under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103 (Anticipation and
`
`Obviousness), because the following system(s), either individually or in combination with other
`
`prior art references identified by Defendants, disclose all elements of the asserted claims:
`
` The Relatable FreeAmp audio identification system, including when used in conjunction
`with the MusicBrainz audio information database.

`U.S. Patent No. 8,904,464
