`
`Adobe’s preliminary proposed claim constructions are attached as Exhibit A.
`
`Adobe reserves the right to amend these preliminary constructions as the parties proceed

`
`discovery, and the preparation of a Joint Claim Construction Statement. Adobe also reserves the
`
`right to add to or subtract from the list of proposed claim terms as part of this process. The
`
`following terms and preliminary constructions may not be used in any way in any subsequent
`
`claim construction briefing or argument in this case. Nothing herein should be construed as an
`
`admission that Adobe accepts or endorses any construction impliedly or expressly adopted in

`Plaintiff’s infringement contentions. In addition, by proposing the below constructions, Adobe
`
`makes no admission that any of the claims of the patents-in-suit are valid and/or infringed, both

`
`including defenses regarding the indefiniteness, lack of written description, or non-enablement of
`
`certain claim language. Adobe further reserves the right to assert that any proposed
