`
`Identification of Top Ten Terms for Construction Pursuant to Patent Local Rule
`4-3(c)
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-3(c), the parties identify the following ten terms “whose
`
`construction will be most significant to the resolution of the case”:
`
`’799 Patent
`
`1
`
`“a response collector component for storing the application identifier and
`
`vendor routing information, associating the application identifier with the
`
`vendor routing information, receiving the application identifier and user
`
`response information from the reception component, and transmitting the
`
`user response information to the vendor associated with the application
`

`
`The parties dispute fourteen additional claim terms, included in the Joint Claim Construction
`
`Statement chart. The ten terms above are identified in bold. See Exhibit A, attached. The Court’s
`
`Scheduling Order provides that the Court “will construe only the terms the parties identify in their
`
`Joint Claim Construction and Prehearing Statement as ‘most significant to the resolution of the case
`
`up to a maximum of 10,’” citing Patent Local Rule 4-3(c). ECF No. 59 at 3:5-7. The parties are
`
`continuing to discuss the disputed terms.
`
`Statement by OpenTV
`A.
`OpenTV believes that the parties’ briefing should be limited to the ten terms identified under
`
`Patent Local Rule 4-3(c), absent compelling circumstances and permission from the Court. OpenTV
`
`understands that Apple intends to submit claim construction briefing on the fourteen additional
`
`disputed terms in addition to the ten terms jointly identified by the parties as “most significant to the
`
`resolution of the case.” OpenTV may seek clarification from the Court whether leave is required for
`
`the parties to submit briefing on terms in excess of the identified ten terms, and if so under what
`
`conditions.

`
`Apple believes construction of additional terms beyond the ten terms identified above will be
`
`necessary, particularly given that disputes for most remaining terms center around means-plus-
`
`function treatment or indefiniteness issues that are resolved through claim construction. Apple
`
`believes the parties should address all disputed terms in claim construction briefing, as parties have
`
`done in past cases, such as Symantec Corp. v. Acronis, Inc., No. 3:12-cv-05331-JST and Emblaze
`
`Ltd. v. Microsoft Corp., 3:12-cv-5422-JST. Absent other guidance from the Court, Apple intends to
`
`brief all disputed terms, and Apple will be prepared to address disputed terms at the Court’s claim
`
`construction hearing or at such other time as the Court directs. Apple will continue to discuss with
`
`OpenTV in an attempt to reach agreement regarding briefing.
`
`IV.
`
`Proposed Constructions of Disputed Terms
`The Joint Claim Construction Statement chart attached as Exhibit A presents the parties’
`
`proposed constructions for the ten terms identified by the parties under Patent Local Rule 4-3(c) and
`
`the remaining fourteen disputed terms with intrinsic and extrinsic evidence supporting such
`
`constructions. Each party reserves the right to use evidence identified or relied upon by any other
`
`party and to use any portion of documents identified in the attached charts, not just those portions
`
`expressly cited.
`
`V.
`
`Length of Claim Construction Hearing
`The Court has set the Claim Construction Hearing for March 23, 2015, starting at 2:00 pm.
`
`The parties anticipate the hearing will take the full 2 and a half hours the Court has allotted for claim
`
`construction. See ECF No. 59. The parties will divide this time evenly, with 1.25 hours for each side.
`
`VI.
`
`Anticipated Witnesses at the Claim Construction Hearing
`The parties do not anticipate calling witnesses at the Claim Construction Hearing.
`
`By her signature below, counsel for Plaintiffs attests that counsel for Defendants concur in
`
`the filing of this document.
