`
`
`22.
`
`Raritan competes directly with Server Technology in the PDU market. Raritan’s
`
`acts of infringement have caused Server Technology to lose market share and goodwill to
`
`Raritan.
`23.
`
`Raritan has made, used, offered for sale, and sold in the United States hundreds of
`
`PDU products that infringe one or more of the claims of the Server Technology Patents.
`
`Specifically, as just two examples, Raritan’s DPSX12-15 and PX3-5902V model PDUs infringe
`
`each of the Server Technology Patents.
`24.
`
`Additionally, the Raritan model PX2-5520 PDU infringes claim 15 of the ‘543
`
`patent and claim 15 of the ‘771 patent. A list of 182 models of Raritan PDUs that infringe claim
`
`15 of the ‘543 patent and claim 15 of the ‘771 patent is set forth in Exhibit 12.
`25.
`
`As set forth below in the following subparagraphs, Raritan has made, used,
`
`offered for sale and has sold in the United States PDUs that infringe at least the following claims
`
`Claim 15 of the ‘543 patent;
`
`Claim 15 of the ‘771 patent;
`
`Claims 1 and 8 of the ‘461 patent;
`
`Claims 1, 16, 31 of the ‘521 patent;
`
`Claim 1 of the ‘067 patent;
`
`Claims 1 and 7 of the ‘291 patent;
`
`Claims 1 and 22 of the ‘106 patent;
`
`of the Server Technology Patents:
`a.
`b.
`c.

`
`Claims 1, 9 and 22 of the ‘134 patent;
`
`Claim 1 of the ‘689 patent;
`
`Claim 1 of the ‘272 patent; and
`
`Claim 1 of the ‘737 patent.
`
`26.
`
`Server Technology marks its products with the numbers of the Server Technology
`
`Patents in accordance with 35 U.S.C. § 287. Therefore, Raritan has had constructive notice of
`
`the Server Technology Patents since the date marking commenced for each individual patent.

`

`Additionally, Raritan has had actual notice of the Server Technology Patents since at least as
`
`early as the filing of this amended complaint.
`
`FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION
`
`(Infringement of the ‘543 patent)
`
`27.
`
`Server Technology incorporates by reference the allegations contained in
`
`paragraphs 1-26.
`28.
`
`In violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271(a), Raritan has infringed and is infringing claim
`
`15 of the ‘543 patent by manufacturing, using, offering to sell, or selling, within the United
`
`States, and/or by importing into the United States, over 180 different product models in the
`
`DPSX, PX-2000 and PX-5000 series of vertical, switched PDU products, including but not
`
`limited to the Raritan model DPSX12-15, PX3-5902V and PX2-5520 PDUs.
`29.
`30.
`
`Raritan’s infringing acts have caused damage to Server Technology.
`
`Raritan will continue to infringe claim 15 of the ‘543 patent unless permanently
`
`enjoined by this Court. As a result of Raritan’s infringement, Server Technology has suffered,
`
`and will continue to suffer, irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law.
`
`Accordingly, Server Technology is entitled to permanent injunctive relief against such
`
`infringement pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 283.
`31.
`
`The existence and scope of the ‘543 patent are well-known to those companies
`
`that manufacture and sell PDUs. Accordingly, based on Raritan’s knowledge of the ‘543 patent,
`
`Raritan’s infringement of the ‘543 patent is willful.
`
`SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION
`
`(Infringement of the ‘771 patent)
`
`32.
`
`Server Technology incorporates by reference the allegations contained in the
`
`paragraphs 1-26.
`33.
`
`In violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271(a), Raritan has infringed and is infringing claim
`
`15 of the ‘771 patent by manufacturing, using, offering to sell, or selling, within the United
`
`States, and/or by importing into the United States, over 180 different product models in the

`
`limited to the Raritan model DPSX12-15, PX3-5902V and PX2-5520 PDUs.
`34.
`35.
`
`Raritan’s infringing acts have caused damage to Server Technology.
`
`Raritan will continue to infringe claim 15 of the ‘771 patent unless permanently
`
`enjoined by this Court. As a result of Raritan’s infringement, Server Technology has suffered,
`
`and will continue to suffer, irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law.
`
`Accordingly, Server Technology is entitled to permanent injunctive relief against such
`
`infringement pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 283.
`36.
`
`The existence and scope of the ‘771 patent are well-known to those companies
`
`that manufacture and sell PDUs. Accordingly, based on Raritan’s knowledge of the ‘771 patent,
`
`Raritan’s infringement of the ‘771 patent is willful.
`
`THIRD CAUSE OF ACTION
`
`(Infringement of the ‘461 patent)
`
`37.
`
`Server Technology incorporates by reference the allegations contained in the
`
`paragraphs 1-26.
`38.
`
`In violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271(a), Raritan has infringed and is infringing at least
`
