`
`JURISDICTION AND VENUE
`
`4.
`
`This is an action for patent infringement arising under the patent laws of the
`
`United States, 35 U.S.C. § 100 et seq., including, but not limited to, 35 U.S.C. § 271.
`
`5.
`
`This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
`
`§§ 1331 and 1338(a).
`
`6.
`
`On information and belief, Defendant is a corporation organized and existing
`
`under the laws of Delaware, has transacted and does transact business within Delaware, and has
`
`committed and contributed to and induced acts of patent infringement in Delaware and this
`
`District. Defendant is subject to this Court’s specific and general personal jurisdiction pursuant
`
`to due process and the Delaware Long Arm Statute, due at least to its substantial business in this
`
`forum, including: (i) at least a portion of the infringement alleged herein; and (ii) regularly doing
`
`or soliciting business, engaging in other persistent courses of conduct, and deriving substantial
`
`revenue from goods and services provided to individuals in Delaware.
`
`7.
`
`Venue is proper in this District under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1391(b) and (c), and 1400(b)
`
`because, among other reasons, Defendant is subject to personal jurisdiction in this District and
`
`has committed and continues to commit acts of patent infringement in this District. For example,
`
`on information and belief, Defendant has made, used, sold, offered for sale, and/or imported
`
`infringing products and services in this District.
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`8.
`
`This dispute involves technology that allows enhanced capabilities on portable
`
`electronic devices. For example, the technology at issue provides for terminal processors and
`
`peripheral device processors to execute program code stored on the peripheral device, allowing

`
`advanced functionality to be added to standard peripheral devices and allowing peripheral
`
`devices to access networks using a terminal’s network interface.
`

`
`The technology at issue was invented by Scott McNulty, who also founded
`
`IOENGINE.
`
`THE PATENT-IN-SUIT
`
`10.
`
`On September 17, 2013, the United States Patent and Trademark Office duly and
`
`legally issued United States Patent No. 8,539,047 (“the ’047 Patent”), entitled “Apparatus,
`
`Method and System for a Tunneling Client Access Point,” to Scott McNulty after full and fair
`
`examination. The application that led to the ’047 Patent, U.S. Patent Application Ser. No.
`
`12/950,321, was a continuation of U.S. Patent Application Ser. No. 10/807,731 and claims
`
`priority to at least March 23, 2004. IOENGINE is the assignee of all right, title, and interest in
`
`and to the ’047 Patent and possesses all rights of recovery under the ’047 Patent, including the
`
`right to recover damages for past infringement. A true and correct copy of the ’047 Patent is
`
`attached hereto as Exhibit A.
`
`KANGURU’S INFRINGEMENT
`
`11.
`
`IOENGINE incorporates by reference the preceding paragraphs as if fully set
`
`forth herein.
`
`12.
`
`As described below, Kanguru infringes the claims of the ’047 Patent directly
`
`(alone or jointly), and indirectly by contributing to and inducing direct infringement by others,
`
`by making, using, selling, offering for sale, importing into the United States, and encouraging the
`
`manufacture, use, sale, and importation of products and services.
`
`13. More specifically, the infringing products (the “Kanguru Infringing Products”)
`
`include, but are not limited to, Kanguru’s Defender Elite products (e.g., Defender Elite,

`
`Defender Elite200, and Defender Elite30), Defender Basic products (e.g., Defender Basic and
`
`Defender Basic+), Defender RocIT products (e,g., RocIT Defender 2000 FinanceSafe and
`
`RocIT Defender Elite), and Defender products (e.g., Defender, Defender Pro, Defender SSD,
`
`Defender HDD, Defender 2000, Defender V2, Defender DualTrust, and Virtual Defender);
`
`products incorporating the foregoing; and reasonably similar Kanguru products with on-board
`
`storage and processing capabilities that embody the apparatuses or practice the methods claimed
`
`by the ’047 Patent. The Kanguru Infringing Products meet the limitations of the ’047 Patent
`
`literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`14.
`
`Kanguru instructs and encourages its customers to use the Kanguru Infringing
`
`Products in a manner that infringes the claims of the ’047 Patent including by providing user
`
`guides and data sheets for the Kanguru Infringing Products,1 by providing information on its
`
`website (available at www.kanguru.com), including videos, demonstrations, and other

`
`FIRST COUNT FOR RELIEF
`(INFRINGEMENT OF THE ’047 PATENT)
`
`IOENGINE incorporates by reference the preceding paragraphs as if fully set
`
`15.
`
`forth herein.
`
`16.
`
`Kanguru had actual knowledge of the ’047 Patent at least as early as the filing of
`
`this Complaint.
`
`17.
`
`On information and belief, Kanguru has infringed and continues to infringe,
`
`directly (alone or jointly) and indirectly by way of inducement and contributory infringement,
`
`literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271, one or more
`
`claims of the ’047 Patent by performing, without authority, one or more of the following acts:
`
`making, having made, using, importing, selling, and offering for sale in the United States one or
`
`more products and services that embody one or more inventions described and claimed in the
`
`’047 Patent, including but not limited to the Kanguru Infringing Products. Since at least after
`
`receiving notice of this Complaint, Defendant has knowingly contributed to the infringement,
`
`and continues to contribute to the infringement, of one or more claims of the ’047 Patent by
`
`selling and offering its products for sale to its customers, which products constitute a material
`
`5
`
`Ingenico Inc. v. IOENGINE, LLC
`IPR2019-00879 (US 9,059,969)
`Exhibit 2020
`
`
`
`Case 1:14-cv-01571-GMS Document 1 Filed 12/31/14 Page 6 of 7 PageID #: 6
`
`part of the invention and are not staple articles or commodities of commerce suitable for
`
`substantial non-infringing use. Further, since at least after receiving notice of this Complaint,
`
`Defendant has induced infringement, and continues to induce infringement, of one or more
`
`claims of the ’047 Patent, with specific intent that its products be used by its customers to
`
`infringe the ’047 Patent.
`
`18.
`
`By infringing the ’047 Patent, Kanguru has caused and will continue to cause
`
`Plaintiff to suffer damages in an amount to be determined at trial.
`
`19.
`
`Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law against Kanguru’s acts of infringement,
`
`and unless Kanguru is permanently enjoined from infringing the ’047 Patent, Plaintiff will suffer
`
`irreparable harm.
`
`20.
`
`To the extent that Kanguru has or continues to make, use, import, sell, or offer for
`
`sale products or services that infringe the ’047 Patent following its awareness of the ’047 Patent,
`
`Kanguru’s infringement is willful and entitles IOENGINE to an award of enhanced damages
`
`pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284 and attorneys’ fees pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 285.
`
`PRAYER FOR RELIEF
`
`WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for judgment on the complaint as follows:
`
`a.
`
`Judgment in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendant for infringement of the
`
`’047 Patent;
`
`b.
`
`Entry of a permanent injunction enjoining Defendant and its affiliated entities,
`
`officers, agents, servants, employees, and those persons in active concert or participation with
`
`them who receive actual notice thereof, from directly or indirectly infringing, inducing the
`
`infringement of, or contributing to the infringement of the ’047 Patent;
