`Preliminary Disclosure of Asserted Claims and Infringement Contentions to Samsung Electronics
`
`
`
`
`

`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`is based on the information available to Scramoge as of the date of this disclosure, and Scramoge

`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Orders.

`
`II.
`
`Accused Products
`
`Scramoge contends that the Asserted Claims are infringed by the various apparatuses used,
`
`made, sold, offered for sale, or imported into the United States by Samsung (the "Accused
`
`Products"). The Accused Products include at least the following, as well as products with
`
`reasonably similar functionality, and all Edge, Plus ( + ), Active, Lite, 4G, and 5G varieties of these
`
`products:
`
`• The Asserted Claims of the '476, '962, '215, and '370 Patents: Galaxy S6, S6 Edge,
`
`S7, S7 Edge, S8, Note 8, S9, Note 9, S9+, Sl0e, Sl0, Sl0+, Sl0 5G, Note 10, Note 10+,
`
`Note 10+ 5G, S20, S20 5G, S20+, S20+ 5G, S20 Ultra LTE/5G, Note 20, Note 20 5G,
`
`Note 20 Ultra 5G, S21, S21+, S21 Ultra, Fold, Z Fold2 5G, Z Fold 3, Z Flip, and Z Flip 3.
`
`• The Asserted Claims of the '482 Patent: Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge +, Note 5, S7,
`
`S7 Edge, S8, S8+. Note 8, S9, S9+, and Note 9.
`
`• The Asserted Claims of the '941 Patent: Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch3, Galaxy Watch
`
`4, Galaxy Watch Active, and Galaxy Watch Active2.

`
`Petitioner Samsung and Google Ex-1008, 0002
`
`
`
`Scramoge reserves the right to amend this list of accused instrumentalities, as well as other
`
`information contained in this document and the exhibits hereto, to incorporate new information
`
`learned during the course of discovery, including, but not limited to, the inclusion of newly
`
`released products, versions, or any other equivalent devices ascertained through discovery.
`
`Further, to the extent any accused infringing products have gone through or will go through name
`
`changes, but were or will be used or sold with the same accused features, earlier corresponding
`
`products under different names also are accused.
`
`III. Claim Charts
`
`Claim charts identifying a location of every element of every asserted claim of the asserted
`
`Scramoge Patents within accused products are attached hereto as Exhibits A -F. Scramoge's
`
`analysis of the Accused Products is based on limited publicly available information and based on
`
`Scramoge's own investigation prior to any discovery in this action. In an effort to focus the issues,
`
`Scramoge identifies exemplary evidence for each claim limitation. The evidence cited for a
`
`particular limitation should be considered in light of the additional evidence cited for the other
`
`claim limitations. Scramoge reserves the right to rely on evidence cited for any particular
`
`limitation of an asserted claim for any other limitation asserted for that claim. Unless otherwise
`
`indicated, the information provided that corresponds to each claim element is considered to
`
`indicate that each claim element is found within each of the different variations of each respective
`
`Accused Products described above.
`
`Scramoge reserves the right to amend these claim charts, as well as other information
`
`contained in this document and the exhibits hereto. Scramoge further reserves the right to amend
`
`these claim charts to incorporate new information learned during the course of discovery,
`
`3
`
`Petitioner Samsung and Google Ex-1008, 0003
`
`
`
`including, but not limited to, information that is not publicly available or readily discernible
`
`without discovery or undue burden.
`
`IV.
`
`Literal Infringement/ Doctrine of Equivalents
`
`Scramoge contends that Samsung has directly infringed and continues to directly infringe
`
`the asserted claims by making, using, offering for sale, selling, and importing into the United
`
`States the Accused Products. Scramoge asserts that, under the proper construction of the asserted
`
`claims and their claim terms, the limitations of the asserted claims of the asserted Scramoge patents
`
`are literally present in the accused products, as set forth in the claim charts attached hereto as
`
`Exhibits A -F. Scramoge contends that any and all elements found not to be literally infringed are
`
`infringed under the doctrine of equivalents because the differences between the claimed inventions
`
`and the accused instrumentalities, if any, are insubstantial.
`
`Scramoge's contention is that each limitation is literally met, and necessarily also would
`
`be met under the doctrine of equivalents because there are no substantial differences between the
`
`Accused Products and the claims, in function, way, or result. If Samsung attempts to argue that
`
`there is no infringement literally and also no infringement under doctrine of equivalents and
`
`attempts to draw any distinction between the claimed functionality and the functionality in the
`
`Accused Products, then Scramoge reserves its right to rebut the alleged distinction as a matter of
`
`literal infringement and/or as to whether any such distinction is substantial under the doctrine of
`
`equivalents.
`
`Scramoge reserves the right to amend its Infringement Contentions as to literal
`
`infringement or infringement under the doctrine of equivalents in light of new information learned
`
`during the course of discovery and the Court's claim construction.
`
`V.

`
`
`priority date for the asserted patents. A diligent search continues for documents and Scramoge
`
`reserves the right to supplement this response.

`
`practice, design, and development of each claimed invention of the asserted patents, which were
