`
`Defendant and Counterclaimant, Universal Remote Control, Inc. (“URC”)
`
`hereby makes its initial disclosures under Rule 26(a)(l) of the Federal Rules of
`
`Civil Procedure. URC bases these disclosures on information currently available
`
`to it arising from its investigation to date. URC’s understanding of the subject
`
`matter of this action, as well as the scope of rights claimed by Plaintiff Universal
`
`Electronics Inc. (“UEI”), arises from UEI’s service of the Complaint in this action
`
`asserting infringement of US. Patent Nos. 5,414,426 (the “ ’426 patent”),
`
`5,568,367 (the “ ’367 patent”), 5,614,906 (the “ ’ 906 patent”), and 6,587,067 (the
`
`“ ’067 patent”) (collectively, “the Asserted Patents”).
`
`The disclosures set forth herein are based on information reasonably
`
`available to URC following a good faith inquiry upon UEI’s commencement of
`
`this suit. Investigation concerning this action is ongoing, and URC reserves the
`
`right under Rule 26(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to modify, amend,
`
`or supplement these disclosures as it learns additional information.

`
`C.
`
`26(a)(1)(A)(iii) — Damages Computation
`
`URC has asserted a counterclaim of breach of contract against UEI due to a
`
`material breach of the November 1, 2004 Settlement Agreement between the
`
`parties based on the assertion of US. Patent No. 5,414,426 (“the ‘426 patent”) in
`
`this lawsuit.
`
`URC will seek damages in an amount to be determined at trial based on its
`
`attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in defending against this baseless claim.
`
`Damages are ongoing and will be computed based on the fees and costs expended
`
`up and until the claim is withdrawn by UEI or dismissed by the Court.
`
`URC expressly reserves the right to supplement this response concerning
`
`its damages computation pursuant to Rule 26(e) as its investigation continues and
`
`after discovery commences.
`
`D.
`
`26(a)(1)(A)(iv) — Any Indemnity and Insuring Agreements
`
`At this time, URC is not aware of any indemnity or insuring agreements
`
`under which any person or entity may be liable to satisfy part or all of any
`
`judgment entered in this action against URC, or to indemnify or reimburse URC
`
`for payments made to satisfy any such judgment.
