`
`KG PATENT LITIGATION
`
`The Document Relates To:
`
`Misc. Action No. 07-493 (RMC)
`
`MDL No. 1880
`
`FIRST WAVE CASES: Nos. 07-CV-1118,

`
`
`
`JOINT CLAIM CONSTRUCTION AND PREHEARING STATEMENT
`
`Pursuant to the Court’s Tenth Practice and Procedure Order (D.I. 628, ¶ 5), and Patent
`
`L.R. 4-3, Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG (“Papst”) and the First Wave Camera Manufacturers
`
`(“CMs”) submit the following Joint Claim Construction Statement concerning U.S. Patent Nos.
`
`6,470,399, 6,895,449, 8,504,746, and 8,966,144 (collectively, the “Patents-in-Suit”).
`
`Agreed-Upon Constructions
`
`
`
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-3(a), the chart attached as Exhibit A to this statement sets
`
`forth the parties’ agreement as to the proper construction for certain claim terms from the
`
`Patents-in-Suit, and terms previously identified in D.I. 625 for which the parties have agreed no
`
`construction is necessary.
`
`Disputed Constructions
`
`
`
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-3(b), the chart attached as Exhibit A also contains the
`
`parties’ proposed constructions for those terms that are in dispute. In addition, the charts
`
`attached as Exhibits B and C to this statement contain, respectively, Papst’s and the CMs’
`
`

`
`Case 1:07-mc-00493-RMC Document 629 Filed 05/13/16 Page 2 of 5
`
`
`
`proposed constructions for the disputed terms, together with their identification of references
`
`from the specification or prosecution history that support their respective constructions, and an
`
`identification of extrinsic evidence upon which each party intends to rely to support its claim
`
`construction positions.
`
`Most Significant Terms
`
`
`
` The parties have narrowed the claim construction dispute to eleven (11) terms from the
`
`Old Patents and six (6) terms from the New Patents. Pursuant to the Court’s Ninth Practice and
`
`Procedure Order (D.I. 608 at 6), the parties previously identified the ten terms from the New
`
`Patents most significant to resolution of the case. (D.I. 625.)
`
`Length of the Claim Construction Hearing
`
`
`
`
`
`The Court has scheduled two days for the Claim Construction Hearing. (D.I. 628 at 4.)
`
`Witnesses
`
`The parties each intend to call one witness at the Claim Construction Hearing. Papst
`
`intends to call its expert Mr. Robert Zeidman. The CMs intend to call their expert Dr. John
`
`Levy. Pursuant to the Tenth Practice and Procedure Order (D.I. 628 at 3-4), the parties will
`
`disclose the witnesses’ opinions and substance of their testimony with their respective claim
`
`construction briefs.
