`for each claimed invention, and (2) a copy of the file history
`for each patent in suit.
`The Parties shall submit an agreed Scheduling Order. If the
`parties cannot agree, the parties shall submit a separate Joint
`Motion for entry of Scheduling Order briefly setting forth their
`respective positions on items where they cannot agree. Absent
`agreement of the parties, the Plaintiff shall be responsible for
`the timely submission of this and other Joint filings.
`Defendant serves preliminary invalidity contentions in the
`form of (1) a chart setting forth where in the prior art references
`each element of the asserted claim(s) are found, (2) an
`identification of any limitations the Defendant contends are
`indefinite or lack written description under section 112, and
`(3) an identification of any claims the Defendant contends are
`directed to ineligible subject matter under section 101.
`Defendant shall also produce (1) all prior art referenced in the

`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.
