`
`Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. v. Neonode Smartphone LLC, Case No. 6:20-cv-00507
`
`Dear Mr. Graves:
`
`We write regarding the petitions for inter partes review (IPR) filed against the patents in suit, US Patent
`Nos. 8,095,879 and 8,812,993, in the captioned litigation. We write to inform you that the Samsung
`defendants hereby stipulate that if the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) institutes one or more of the
`IPR petitions on the grounds presented (a table of which is reproduced below), then the Samsung
`Defendants, including Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Samsung Electronics America,
`Inc.(“Samsung”), will not pursue those same instituted grounds or grounds sharing the same primary
`reference in the above-captioned litigation.

`
`In so stipulating, Samsung seeks to avoid multiple proceedings addressing the validity of the patents in
`suit based on the same grounds. Rather, consistent with Congressional intent, Samsung wishes the
`patentability of these patents over those grounds to be addressed at the Board. But, for the sake of
`clarity and to avoid any doubt, if the PTAB declines institution of one or more IPRs, Samsung reserves
`the right to pursue all grounds in this litigation.
`
`Sincerely,
`
