`
`Court deny all relief sought by M1. Samsung specifically denies all of the allegations contained
`
`in Ml’s prayer for relief.
`
`SAMSUNG’S DEFENSES
`
`Without admitting or acknowledging that Samsung bears the burden of proof as to any
`
`of them and reserving the right to amend its Answer as additional information becomes
`
`available, Samsung pleads the following defenses:
`
`FIRST DEFENSE
`
`3 NON—INFRINGEMENT [
`
`1.
`
`Samsung has not engaged in any acts that would constitute infringement of,
`
`contributory infringement of, or inducement to infringe, any Valid claim of the ’ l2l Patent, either
`
`literally or under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`2.
`
`On information and belief, between at least 2001 and 2005, Newisys, Inc., the
`
`
`
`Case 1:13—cv—O1808—GMS Document 12 Filed 02/24/14 Page 5 of 14 PageID #: 98
`
`original assignee of the ’ 121 Patent, worked with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”),
`
`including work to develop AMD’s “K8” server platform. See www.amd.com/us/press—
`
`releases/Pages/Press_Release_70832.aspx and wvvw.amd.com/us/press-
`
`releases/Pages/Press_Release_97039.aspx. On information and belief, the technology
`
`underlying the claims of the ’l2l Patent is based on the work related to AMD’s K8 server
`
`platform.
`
`3.
`
`All independent claims of the ’ l2l Patent, and therefore all claims of the ’ 121
`
`Patent, require a “point—to~point architecture” (as acknowledged by Paragraph l5(a) of the
`
`Complaint). The ’ 121 Patent specification describes a “point-to-point architecture” as one
`
`having point-to-point communication links providing interconnections between the processors.
`
`See, e. g., ’ l2l Patent at col. 6, ll. 36-44. On information and belief, the K8 server platform
`
`developed by AMD with Newisys’s assistance similarly included a point-to-point architecture.
`
`4.
`
`The Accused Instrumentalities listed in Paragraph 13 of the Complaint all contain
`
`multicore processor devices that further include processor cores supplied by a third—party ARM
`
`Holdings. See http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones and
`
`http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab. These processor cores are referred to as ARM
`
`Coitex MP Cores. See http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor
`
`/product/application/catalogue. None of these ARM Cortex MP Cores have a point—to~point
`
`architecture as that term is used in the ’ 121 Patent. Information regarding these ARM Cortex
`
`MP Cores and associated architectures, including the bus structures used to interconnect the
`
`multiple processors through a Snoop Control Unit (“SCU”), is publicly available at
`
`www.arm.com/products/processors/co1tex—a/index.php. Because none of the ARM Cortex MP
`
`Cores used by the Accused Instrumentalities has a point—to~point architecture, the Accused
`
`
`
`Case 1:13—CV-0l808—GMS Document 12 Filed 02/24/14 Page 6 of 14 Page|D #2 99
`
`Instrumentalities do not satisfy every element of the asserted claims and cannot infringe for at
`
`least this reason.
`
`SECOND DEFENSE
`
`gINVALIDITY 1
`
`5.
`
`The patent application that issued as the ’ 121 Patent, No. 10/966,161, was filed on
`
`October 15, 2004, as a continuation-in-part of Application No. 10/288,347 (issued as Patent No.
`
`7,003,633), filed on November 4, 2002. The asserted claims of the ’ 121 Patent lack Written
`
`support in the parent application, and are therefore not entitled to the November 4, 2002, priority
`
`date of the 10/288,347 application.
`
`6.
`
`The ’ 121 Patent is invalid for failure to satisfy the conditions of patentability set
`
`forth in 35 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq., including at least sections 102, 103, 112, and/or 116. For
`
`, example, the ’ 121 Patent is invalid as either anticipated or rendered obvious by at least one or
`
`more of the following prior art references: the prior art references cited by the examiner during
`
`prosecution of the ’ 121 Patent and related applications; prior art references disclosed by the
`
`applicant during the prosecution of those applications; prior art pertaining to AMD and/or
`
`Newisys’s development of K8 servers; prior art that will be disclosed in the invalidity
`
`contentions of Samsung and/or other accused infringers of the ’ 121 Patent; and at least the prior

`
`COUNTERCLAIMS FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT
`
`Without admitting any of the allegations of the Complaint other than those expressly
`
`admitted herein, and without prejudice to either Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.’s, Samsung
`
`Electronics America, Inc.’s, or Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC’s right to plead
`
`additional counterclaims as additional information becomes available, Counterclaim Plaintiffs
`
`Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (“SEC”), Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (“SEA”), and
`
`Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC (“STA”) (collectively, “Samsung”) allege as
`
`follows against Counterclaim Defendant Memory Integrity, LLC (“MI”):
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`1.
`
`According to the allegations set forth in Paragraph 11 of the Complaint, MI
`
`purports to be the owner of all right, title, and interest to U.S. Patent No. 7,296,121 (“the ’ l2l
`
`Patent”).
`
`2.
`
`MI has accused Samsung of infringing the ’ l2l Patent. Samsung denies that any
`
`of its products infringe any valid or enforceable claim in any of the ’ 121 Patent.
`
`3.
`
`An actual case and controversy exists between Samsung and MI concerning the
`
`infringement, validity, and/or enforceability of one or more claims of the ’ 121 Patent, and that
`
`
`
`Case 1:13-cv—O1808—GMS Document 12 Filed 02/24/14 Page 9 of 14 PagelD #: 102
`
`controversy is ripe for adjudication by this Court.
`
`THE PARTIES

`
`JURISDICTION AND VENUE
`
`8.
`
`This is an action for declaratory judgment under 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 and 2202.
`
`This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over these Counterclaims under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331
`
`and 1338(a). These counterclaims arise under the patent laws of the United States.
`
`9.
`
`This Court has personal jurisdiction over MI, at least because by initiating the
`
`instant lawsuit, MI has submitted to the jurisdiction of this judicial district.
`
`10.
`
`Venue for these Counterclaims is proper in this judicial district under 28 U.S.C.
`
`§§ 1367 and 1391.

`
`gDECLARATORY JUDGMENT OF NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THE ’121 PATENT)
`
`COUNTERCLAIM I
`
`11.
`
`Samsung incorporates by reference the admissions, denials, and allegations set
`
`forth in paragraphs 1 through 10 of its Counterclaims, in its responses to paragraphs 1-17 of the
`
`Complaint, and in paragraphs 1-9 of its defenses as if fully set forth herein.
`
`12.
`
`Samsung is not infringing and has not infringed any valid claim of the ’ 121
`
`Patent, by direct infringement, contributory infringement, or inducement of infringement, either
`
`literally or under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`13.
`
`On information and belief, between at least 2001 and 2005, Newisys, 1110., the
`
`original assignee of the ’ 121 Patent, worked with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”),
`
`including work to develop AMD’s “K8” server platform. See wvvw.amd.com/us/press-
`
`releases[Pages/Press_Release_70832.aspx and www.amd.com/us/press-
`
`releases/Pages/Press_Release_97039.aspX. On information and belief, the technology
`
`underlying the claims of the ’ 121 Patent is based on the work related to AMD’s K8 server
`
`platform.
`
`14. All independent claims of the ’ 121 Patent, and therefore all claims of the ’ 121
`
`Patent, require a “point—to—point architecture” (as acknowledged by Paragraph 15(a) of the
`
`Complaint). The ’ 121 Patent specification describes a “point—to-point architecture” as one
`
`having point—to-point communication links providing interconnections between the processors.
`
`See, e. g., ’ 121 Patent at col. 6, 11. 36-44. On information and belief, the K8 server platform
`
`developed by AMD with Newisys’s assistance similarly included a point~to—point architecture.
`
`15.
`
`The Accused Instrumentalities listed in Paragraph 13 of the Complaint all contain
`
`multicore processor devices that further include processor cores supplied by a third—party ARM
`
`Holdings. See http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones and
`

`
`http://WWW.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab. These processor cores are referred to as ARM
`
`Cortex MP Cores. See http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor
`
`/product/application/catalogue. None of these ARM Cortex MP Cores have a point-to-point
`
`architecture as that term is used in the ’ 121 Patent. Information regarding these ARM Cortex
`
`MP Cores and associated architectures, including the bus structures used to interconnect the
`
`multiple processors through a Snoop Control Unit (“SCU”), is publicly available at
`
`WWW.arm.corn/products/processors/cortex-a/indeX.php. Because none of the ARM Cortex MP
`
`Cores used by the Accused Instrumentalities has a point—to-point architecture, the Accused
`
`Instrumentalities do not satisfy every element of the asserted claims and cannot infringe for at
`
`least this reason.
`
`16.
`
`To resolve the legal and factual questions raised by M1, and to afford relief from
`
`the uncertainty and controversy that MI’s accusations have caused, Samsung is entitled to
`
`declaratory judgment that Samsung is not infringing and has not infringed any valid claim of the
`
`’121 Patent, by direct infringement, contributory infringement, or inducement of infringement,
`
`either literally or under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`gDECLARATORY JUDGMENT OF INVALIDITY OF THE ’121 PATENT!
`
`COUNTERCLAIM II
`
`17.
`
`Samsung incorporates by reference the admissions, denials, and allegations set
`
`forth in paragraphs 1 through 16 of its Counterclaims, in its responses to paragraphs 1-17 of the
`
`Complaint, and in paragraphs 1-9 of its defenses as if fully set forth herein.
`
`18.
`
`The patent application that issued as the ’ 121 Patent, No. 10/966,161, was filed on
`
