`
`

`

`Plaintiff XR Communications, LLC, dba Vivato Technologies (“Vivato”) provides this
`
`Disclosure of Asserted Claims and Infringement Contentions to Defendant HP Inc. (“Defendant”
`
`or “HP”) in accordance with the Court’s Order Governing Proceedings. This disclosure is based
`
`on the information available to Vivato as of the date of this disclosure, and Vivato reserves the
`
`right to amend this disclosure to the full extent consistent with the Court’s Rules and Orders.
`
`Discovery is at a very early stage. There have been no deposition testimony or discovery
`
`responses in this action related to technical matters. Vivato’s investigation regarding the asserted
`
`claims and infringement contentions in this disclosure is ongoing, and its investigation of other
`
`potential grounds of infringement is ongoing. This disclosure is based upon information that
`
`Vivato has been able to obtain publicly, together with Vivato’s current good faith beliefs and
`
`information regarding the Accused Products. This disclosure is provided without prejudice to
`
`Vivato’s right to supplement or amend its disclosure as additional facts are discovered, documents
`
`and source code are obtained, analyses are made, and research is completed.
`
`Further, this disclosure is based upon Vivato’s present understanding of the meaning and
`
`scope of the claims of United States Patent Number 10,715,235 (the “’235 Patent”) (the “Asserted
`
`Patent” or “Patent-in-Suit”) in the absence of claim construction proceedings in this action. Vivato
`
`reserves the right to supplement or amend these disclosures if its understanding of the claims
`
`changes, including when the Court construes them in this action.
`
`I.
`
`Asserted Claims
`
`Vivato asserts direct infringement against Defendant under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) and indirect
`infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b). More specifically, Defendant has been and is now actively
`inducing direct infringement by other persons (e.g., Defendant’s customers who use, sell or offer
`for sale the Accused Products) the following claims (collectively, “Asserted Claims”):
`
`Exhibit 2002
`IPR2022-01155
`Page 2 of 6
`
`

`

`• U.S. Patent No. 10,715,235 (the “’235 Patent”), Claims 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, 15,
`16.
`
`II.
`
`Accused Products
`
`Vivato asserts that the Asserted Claims are infringed by various products used, made, sold,
`
`offered for sale, or imported into the United States by Defendant (“Accused Products”), including
`
`HP products supporting MIMO and/or MU-MIMO technologies, including without limitation the
`
`Envy Series, Envy x360 Series, Pavilion Series, Pavilion Gaming Series, Pavilion x360
`
`Convertible Series, Spectre x360 Convertible Series, Omen Series, Chromebook x360 Series,
`
`Chromebook 11a Series, Chromebook 14b Series, Chromebook Clamshell Series, Chromebook
`
`x360 Series, ProBook Series, Elite DragonFly Series, Elite Folio Series, ZBook Series, Elite x2
`
`Series, and EliteBook Series; Defendant’s Desktop computers, including all variations and
`
`configurations thereof, such as: Pavilion Gaming Series, All-in-One Series, Envy Series, Pavilion
`
`Series, OMEN Series, ProDesk Series, EliteOne Series, z2 Mini Workstation Series, ProOne
`
`Series, EliteDesk Series, Elite Slice Series, Chromebox Series, Z2 Small Form Factor Workstation
`
`Series, and Z2 Tower Workstation Series. Defendant’s Accused Products of which Vivato is
`
`presently aware are described in more detail in the accompanying preliminary infringement
`
`contention charts, Exhibit 1.
`
`Vivato reserves the right to accused additional of Defendant’s products to the extent Vivato
`
`becomes aware of additional products during the discovery process. Unless otherwise stated,
`
`Vivato’s assertions of infringement apply to all variations, versions, and applications of each of
`
`the Accused Products, on information and belief, that different variations, versions, and
`
`applications of each of the Accused Products are substantially the same for purposes of
`
`infringement of the Asserted Claims.

`

`III. Claim Charts
`
`A chart identifying specifically where each limitation of each asserted claim is found within
`
`each Accused Product is attached to this disclosure as Exhibit 1. Each limitation of each asserted
`
`claim in the attached charts is alleged to be literally infringed by each Accused Product. Where
`
`Vivato anticipates Defendant’s arguments against literal infringement for certain limitations,
`
`Vivato has included disclosures in the charts alleging infringement under the doctrine of
`
`equivalents. To the extent Defendant contends that other limitations are not literally infringed,
`
`Vivato asserts that the limitation is infringed under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`IV.

`
`Each asserted claim of the ’235 Patent is entitled to a priority date at least as early as
`November 4, 2002.
