`
`This Court has jurisdiction over the parties to this action and over the subject
`
`matter of the Complaint.
`
`3.
`
`MAN does not contest that TT is the sole and exclusive owner of the '304 patent
`
`and the '132 patent, and has the right to sue upon, and recover damages for past
`
`infringement and enjoin future infringement of the '304 and '132 patents.
`
`4.
`
`MAN does not contest the validity or enforceability of any claims of the '304 and
`
`'132 patents. Accordingly, all claims of the '304 and '1 32 patents are valid and
`
`enforceable against MAN.
`
`5.
`
`The case of 1T v. Patystems (NA) LLC et a/. ("Patsystems"), Civil Action No. 05
`
`C 2984 (N.D. Ill., Judge Gettleman) was resolved on May 20, 2005 by the entry of a
`
`Consent Judgment finding that Patsystems infringed the '304 and '132 patents by
`
`making, using and selling software that incorporated a trading screen named "DOME".
`
`A copy of that Consent Judgment is attached as Exhibit 1 hereto. A screenshot of the
`
`infringing DOME product is attached as Exhibit A to that Consent Judgment. After July
`
`20, 2004 (the issue date of the '304 patent) and prior to the commencement of this
`
`lawsuit, MAN provided to its clients electronic trading software made by Patsystems that
`
`incorporated the DOME trading screen that was the subject of the May 20, 2005 Consent
`
`Judgment. MAN does not contest the finding of infringement against Patsystems made in
`
`the Consent Judgment attached as Exhibit A. TT does not now contend that the
`
`infringement was willful or deliberate. Accordingly, the parties stipulate that MAN has
`
`infringed the '304 and '132 patents under 35 U.S.C. Section 271 by using, selling,

`
`offering for sale, importing, and/or otherwise distributing, the DOME trading screen from
`
`Patsystems, but that MAN's infringement was not willful or deliberate.
`
`6.
`
`Defendant MAN, its officers, directors, partners, members, affiliates, subsidiaries,
`
`assigns, and successors-in-interest are hereby permanently enjoined (unless expressly
`
`permitted by TT) during the terms of the '304 and '132 patents from infringing the '304
`
`and '132 patents through the making, using, selling, offering for sale, importing,
`
`facilitating connectivity for and otherwise distributing in the United States the electronic
`
`trading software products referred to in paragraph 5 above (and substantially similar
`
`products) including, without limitation, for use in electronically trading any item (e.g.,
`
`futures, options, equities, fixed-income products, etc.).
`
`7.
`
`Any claims of infringement that TT has against MAN based on MAN's use
`
`and/or distribution of electronic trading software provided by other third parties prior to
`
`entry of this judgment are dismissed without prejudice. The parties have addressed this
`
`issue in the Settlement Agreement by MAN agreeing not to infringe the '304 and '132
`
`patents and by TT releasing MAN for all past damages relating to any past infringement.
`
`TT is not waiving the right to assert the '304 and/or '132 patents against MAN based on
`
`MAN's use and/or distribution of such third party software in the future. MAN is not
`
`waiving any rights to assert that such third party software does not infringe the '304
`
`and/or '132 patents ifTT makes such an assertion of infringement in the future.
`
`8.
`
`TT waives its rights to damages from MAN arising from the use, sale or offers to
`
`sell, importation and/or other distribution of the electronic trading software products
`
`referred to in paragraph 5 above prior to entry of this Judgment.
