`QUALCOMM’S PATENT L.R. 3.1 AND 3.2 DISCLOSURES
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 3.1 (“Rule 3.1”) and the Amended Case
`Management Order (Dkt. 116), Plaintiff Qualcomm Incorporated (“Qualcomm”)
`hereby makes the following Amended Disclosure of Asserted Claims and
`Infringement Contentions (“Rule 3.1 Disclosures”).
`PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
`These disclosures are based on information reasonably available to Qualcomm
`at this time. Because Qualcomm’s discovery efforts and investigation in connection
`with this case are ongoing, Qualcomm reserves the right to add, modify, amend, or
`otherwise supplement these Rule 3.1 Disclosures as appropriate, including in response
`to new information or allegations. Qualcomm reserves the right to rely on testimony
`by any witness with relevant information, including fact witnesses and experts.
`Nothing in these Rule 3.1 Disclosures shall be construed to waive rights or
`objections that otherwise might be available to Qualcomm, nor shall the information
`herein or documents produced pursuant to Rule 3.2 be deemed an admission of
`relevancy, materiality, or admissibility for any purpose whatsoever. Qualcomm
`further states that Defendant Apple Incorporated (“Apple”) has not produced all
`relevant documents and information concerning the products within the scope of this
`case (“Accused Products” or “Accused Instrumentalities”). Qualcomm expects Apple
`to promptly provide complete discovery concerning all products within the scope of
`this case.

`III. Patent Local Rule 3.1(c)
`Rule 3.1(c) requires Qualcomm to disclose: “A chart identifying specifically
`where each element of each asserted claim is found within each Accused
`Instrumentality, including for each element that such party contends is governed by
`35 U.S.C. §112(6), the identity of the structure(s), act(s), or material(s) in the Accused
`Instrumentality that performs the claimed function.” In response to Rule 3.1(c),
`Qualcomm states as follows:
`Pursuant to Rule 3.1(c), Qualcomm has attached claim charts for each of the
`Asserted Patents as Amended Exhibits 591, 043, 132, 865, 861, and 418. Examples
`of documents showing infringement of the asserted claims of the Asserted Patents
`include but are not limited to the documents cited in Amended Exhibits 591, 043, 132,
`865, 861, and 418.
`All infringement contentions set forth herein for any independent patent claims
`are hereby incorporated by reference into the infringement contentions alleged for any
`dependent patent claims that depend on such independent claims, as if fully set forth
`therein.
`Qualcomm’s inclusion of any claim preamble in this claim chart should not be
`interpreted as an admission that the preamble is limiting. Qualcomm reserves the
`right to take the position that the claim preambles are limiting or not limiting on a
`claim-by-claim basis.
`As stated above in Qualcomm’s Preliminary Statement, Apple has not
`produced all relevant documents and information concerning the Accused Products
`within the scope of this case. Qualcomm expects Apple to promptly provide complete
`discovery concerning all products within the scope of this case.
`IV. Patent Local Rule 3.1(d)
`Rule 3.1(d) requires Qualcomm to disclose: “For each claim which is alleged
`to have been indirectly infringed, an identification of any direct infringement and a
`description of the acts of the alleged indirect infringer that contribute to or are

`

`

`inducing that direct infringement. Insofar as alleged direct infringement is based on
`joint acts of multiple parties, the role of each such party in the direct infringement
`must be described.” In response to Rule 3.1(d), Qualcomm states as follows:
`’591 Patent:
`As an initial matter, as stated above in Qualcomm’s Preliminary Statement,
`Apple has not produced documents and information concerning the Accused Products
`within the scope of this case, including documents and information required for
`Qualcomm to pursue and complete its analysis of induced and contributory
`infringement of the patent. Qualcomm expects Apple to promptly provide complete
`discovery concerning all products within the scope of this case. Qualcomm reserves
`the right to supplement its disclosure of infringement contentions after receiving the
`requested discovery from Apple.
`Based on information presently and reasonably available to Qualcomm,
`Qualcomm contends that Apple knowingly induces and/or contributes to the
`infringement of the Asserted Claims by others, including resellers, retailers, and end
`users of the Accused Products. Apple was informed at least as early as December 14,
`2011, that Summit Microelectronics’ TurboCharge™ technology was patented. Upon
`information and belief, Apple was aware of the ‘591 Patent at least as early as
`December 14, 2011.
`On information and belief, Apple tests, demonstrates, or otherwise operates the
`Accused Products in the United States, thereby performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing any Asserted Claims requiring such operation. Similarly, Apple’s
`customers and the end users of the Accused Products test and/or operate the Accused
`Products in the United States in accordance with Apple’s instructions contained in,
`for example, its user manuals, thereby also performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing the Asserted Claims requiring such operation.
`On information and belief, Apple also contributes to infringement of the patent
`by selling for importation into the United States, importing into the United States,

`

`and/or selling within the United States after importation the Accused Products and the
`non-staple constituent parts of those devices, which are not suitable for substantial
`non-infringing use and which embody a material part of the invention described in
`the patent. These mobile electronic devices are known by Apple to be especially
`made or especially adapted for use in the infringement of the patent. Apple also
`contributes to the infringement of the patent by selling for importation into the United
`States, importing into the United States, and/or selling within the United States after
`importation components of the Accused Products, which are not suitable for
`substantial non-infringing use and which embody a material part of the invention
`described in the patent. These mobile devices are known by Apple to be especially
`made or especially adapted for use in the infringement of the patent. Specifically, on
`information and belief, Apple sells the Accused Products to resellers, retailers, and
`end users with knowledge that the devices are used for infringement. End users of
`those mobile electronic devices directly infringe the Asserted Claims.
`’043 Patent:
`As an initial matter, as stated above in Qualcomm’s Preliminary Statement,
`Apple has not produced documents and information concerning the Accused Products
`within the scope of this case, including documents and information required for
`Qualcomm to pursue and complete its analysis of induced and contributory
`infringement of the patent. Qualcomm expects Apple to promptly provide complete
`discovery concerning all products within the scope of this case. Qualcomm reserves

`infringement of the patent, since at least November 29, 2017, when Qualcomm filed
`this action.
`On information and belief, Apple tests, demonstrates, or otherwise operates the
`Accused Products in the United States, thereby performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing any Asserted Claims requiring such operation. Similarly, Apple’s
`customers and the end users of the Accused Products test and/or operate the Accused
`Products in the United States in accordance with Apple’s instructions contained in,
`for example, its user manuals, thereby also performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing the Asserted Claims requiring such operation.
`On information and belief, Apple also contributes to infringement of the patent
`by selling for importation into the United States, importing into the United States,
`and/or selling within the United States after importation the Accused Products and the
`non-staple constituent parts of those devices, which are not suitable for substantial

`and/or selling within the United States after importation the Accused Products and the
`non-staple constituent parts of those devices, which are not suitable for substantial
`non-infringing use and which embody a material part of the invention described in
`the patent. These mobile electronic devices are known by Apple to be especially
`made or especially adapted for use in the infringement of the patent. Apple also
`contributes to the infringement of the patent by selling for importation into the United
`States, importing into the United States, and/or selling within the United States after
`importation components of the Accused Products, which are not suitable for
`substantial non-infringing use and which embody a material part of the invention
`described in the patent. These mobile devices are known by Apple to be especially
`made or especially adapted for use in the infringement of the patent. Specifically, on
`information and belief, Apple sells the Accused Products to resellers, retailers, and
`end users with knowledge that the devices are used for infringement. End users of
`those mobile electronic devices directly infringe the Asserted Claims.
`’861 Patent:
`As an initial matter, as stated above in Qualcomm’s Preliminary Statement,

`

`Based on information presently and reasonably available to Qualcomm,
`Qualcomm contends that Apple knowingly induces and/or contributes to the
`infringement of the Asserted Claims by others, including resellers, retailers, and end
`users of the Accused Products. Apple has had knowledge of the patent, and its
`infringement of the patent, since at least November 29, 2017, when Qualcomm filed
`this action.
`On information and belief, Apple tests, demonstrates, or otherwise operates the
`Accused Products in the United States, thereby performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing any Asserted Claims requiring such operation. Similarly, Apple’s
`customers and the end users of the Accused Products test and/or operate the Accused
`Products in the United States in accordance with Apple’s instructions contained in,
`for example, its user manuals, thereby also performing the claimed methods and
`directly infringing the Asserted Claims requiring such operation.
`On information and belief, Apple also contributes to infringement of the patent
`by selling for importation into the United States, importing into the United States,
`and/or selling within the United States after importation the Accused Products and the
`non-staple constituent parts of those devices, which are not suitable for substantial

`V.
`Patent Local Rule 3.1(e)
`Rule 3.1(e) requires Qualcomm to disclose: “Whether each element of each
`asserted claim is claimed to be literally present and/or present under the doctrine of
`equivalents in the Accused Instrumentality.” In response to Rule 3.1(e), Qualcomm
`states as follows:
`Upon information and belief and as explained in Qualcomm’s claim charts, the
`Accused Products literally include each limitation of each Asserted Claim of the
`Asserted Patents. As these contentions are preliminary in nature and discovery is
`ongoing, Qualcomm also reserves the right to allege infringement under the doctrine
`of equivalents based on continuing discovery. In particular, Qualcomm reserves the
`right to allege theories of infringement under the doctrine of equivalents after
`obtaining discovery regarding Apple’s theories of noninfringement.
`VI. Patent Local Rule 3.1(f)
`Rule 3.1(f) requires Qualcomm to disclose: “For any patent that claims priority
`to an earlier application, the priority date to which each asserted claim allegedly is
`entitled.” In response to Rule 3.1(f), Qualcomm states as follows:
`’132 Patent:
`Each of the Asserted Caims of the ’132 Patent is entitled to a priority date of
`no later than December 9, 2009.
`’865 Patent:
`Each of the Asserted Claims of the ’865 Patent is entitled to a priority date of
`no later than January 19, 2011.

`VII. Patent Local Rule 3.1(g)
`Rule 3.1(g) requires Qualcomm to disclose: “If a party claiming patent
`infringement asserts or wishes to preserve the right to rely, for any purpose, on the
`assertion that its own apparatus, product, device, process, method, act, or other
`instrumentality practices the claimed invention, the party must identify, separately for
`each asserted claim, each such apparatus, product, device, process, method, act, or
`other instrumentality that incorporates or reflects that particular claim.” In response
