`
`1 The parties may amend preliminary infringement contentions and preliminary invalidity
`contentions without leave of court so long as counsel certifies that it undertook reasonable efforts
`to prepare its preliminary contentions and the amendment is based on material identified after those
`preliminary contentions were served and should do so seasonably upon identifying any such
`material. Any amendment to add patent claims requires leave of court so that the Court can address
`any scheduling issues.
