`1 The specifications of each of the Asserted Patents contain word-for-word identical
`disclosures. For the sake of brevity and efficiency, Plaintiff cites specifically herein to the
`specification of the parent ’522 patent. However, Plaintiff represents and hereby notifies the
`Court and Defendant that Plaintiff intends to rely on the exact same disclosures contained in the
`’514 patent, ’523 patent, ’524 patent, ’618 patent and ’619 patent, which specifications, again,
`contain exactly the same disclosures as the specification of the ’522 patent.
`
`2 All supporting patent citations identified by Defendant Dropcam herein reference the
`specification of U.S. Patent No. 8,315,618. Dropcam reserves the right to rely upon
`corresponding disclosures contained in the specifications of each of the Asserted Patents.
`Dropcam similarly reserves the right to rely upon disclosures contained in the prosecution
`histories of each of the Asserted Patents corresponding to the citations identified herein.

`
`Plaintiff, e.Digital, does not believe construction of any of the above terms will be case or
`
`claim dispositive at this time.
`IV. Anticipated Length Of Time Necessary For Claim Construction Hearing
`The parties anticipate they will need four (4) hours for the Claim Construction Hearing.
`V. Witnesses
`Plaintiff may call the inventor, Patrick Nunally, as a witness to testify regarding each of
`
`the disputed terms identified above. Specifically, Mr. Nunally is expected to testify regarding
`
`the technology that underlies the invention of the asserted claims and any parent patents; the
`
`level of ordinary skill in the art; how the relevant claims would be understood by one of ordinary
`
`skill in the art; the meaning of the disputed claim terms, phrases and limitations, and/or any other
`
`opinions or testimony relevant to the Court in construing the terms, phrases and limitations of the
`
`asserted claims of the asserted patents. Plaintiff, e.Digital, reserves the right to introduce
`
`additional testimony from the inventor to rebut Dropcam’s claim construction positions, and any
`
`expert testimony introduced by Dropcam.
`
`Defendants may call Dr. Earl Sacerdoti. Dr. Sacerdoti may testify as to the
`
`understanding of individuals of ordinary skill in the art at the relevant time period for the
`
`Asserted Patents. Specifically, Dr. Sacerdoti may provide testimony regarding background
`
`technology or to demonstrate that Dropcam’s constructions of the proposed claim terms and
`
`phrases are consistent with the meaning of such terms and phrases in the relevant art during the
`
`relevant time period for the Asserted Patents. Such testimony will address both the general
`
`understanding of the relevant terms and phrases in the field of the art as well as the
`
`understanding of such terms and phrases in the context of the specifications and claims of the
`
`Asserted Patents. Dropcam does not plan to bring Dr. Sacerdoti to the claim construction
`
`hearing unless the Court requests his presence in advance. Dropcam further reserves the right to
