`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Pursuant to Local Patent Rules (“P.R.”) 3-3 and 3-4, Defendants HTC Corporation
`
`(“HTC”)1 and ZTE (USA), Inc., and ZTE (TX), Inc. (collectively, “ZTE”)2 (HTC and ZTE are
`
`herein, collectively, referred to as “Defendants”) hereby serve their Invalidity Contentions and
`
`accompanying document production on Plaintiff AGIS Software Development LLC (“AGIS” or
`
`“Plaintiff”). Defendants’ discovery and investigation related to the above-captioned cases are
`
`continuing, and, as such, these contentions and disclosures are based on information reasonably
`
`obtained by Defendants to date in view of the unreasonable number of claims currently asserted
`
`by AGIS. Defendants reserve the right to supplement or modify these contentions, consistent
`
`with P.R. 3-6 and any applicable Court order.
`
`AGIS has asserted the following patents and claims against Defendants in this case:
`
`• Claims 1 and 3-9 of U.S. Patent No. 8,213,970 (the “ʼ970 Patent”);
`• Claims 1-54 of U.S. Patent No. 9,408,055 (the “ʼ055 Patent”);
`• Claims 1-35 of U.S. Patent No. 9,445,251 (the “ʼ251 Patent”); and
`• Claims 1-54 of U.S. Patent No. 9,467,838 (the “ʼ838 Patent”)
`
`
`The ’970 Patent, ’055 Patent, ’251 Patent, and ’838 Patent are collectively referred to herein as
`
`the “Patents-in-Suit” and the claims identified above are collectively referred to herein as the
`
`“Asserted Claims.” That AGIS has asserted all or substantially all the claims in each of the
`
`Patents-in-Suit is overly burdensome and unsustainable. To that end, AGIS has agreed to a
`
`phased reduction of asserted claims, but, under the amended Docket Control Order (2:17-cv-
`
`00514-JRG, D.I. 39; see also 2:17-cv-00513-JRG, D.I. 89), this reduction will occur after service
`
`of these Invalidity Contentions. For at least this reason, Defendants reserve the right to amend or
`
`otherwise supplement these contentions and disclosures to the extent necessary and permitted.
`
`1 HTC Corp. serves these invalidity contentions subject to its objection and motion to dismiss for lack of personal
`jurisdiction.
`2 Defendant ZTE Corporation has not yet been served or appeared in this matter; thus, all scheduling deadlines will
`apply, if Defendant ZTE Corporation is served.

`remotely controlling the particular second device to perform an action, wherein the
`particular second device is configured to perform the action based on receiving the
`second message.”
`
`
`Claim 47:
`
`• “wherein the information associated with the facility comprises a uniform resource
`locator (URL) of a web site associated with the facility.”
`
`
`Claim 48:
`
`• “further comprising performing, by the first device: identifying user interaction with the
`interactive display selecting the symbol corresponding to the facility and user interaction
`with the display specifying an action, and based thereon, loading a web page associated
`with the facility.”
`
`
`Claim 51:
`
`
`
`• “wherein the first server is the second server.”
`
`B.
`
`Patent Local Rule 3-3(a)-(c) Initial Disclosures
`
`Pursuant to P.R. 3-3(a), and as detailed below and in the attached Exhibits, Defendants
`
`contend that the asserted claims of the Patents-in-Suit are invalid as anticipated and/or obvious
`
`under (pre-AIA and/or AIA) 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103 over at least the following prior art.
