`
`The above tables are not intended as an indication that any disclosed/identified claim
`
`term/phrase should have a construction that differs from a plain and ordinary meaning. By not
`
`listing certain claim terms/phrases, Defendant does not concede that any alleged construction or
`
`dictionary definition, if any, proposed by Plaintiff, constitutes or includes the proper
`
`construction of the language as used in the claims. Although Defendant has made a good faith
`
`effort to parse the identified claim terms/phrases in a manner that most efficiently facilitates
`
`claim construction, additional and alternative parsing may be necessary.
`
`Defendant’s proposed claim constructions are based on the limited information and
`
`discovery currently available to it, including Plaintiff’s disclosures to date. Defendant expressly
`
`reserves the right to withdraw, supplement, modify, expand or amend its proposed claim
`
`4
`
`

`

`constructions should the Court subsequently allow Plaintiff to amend its asserted claims to
`
`assert different or additional claims, or to invoke different or additional statutory subsections of
`
`35 U.S.C. § 271.
`
`In addition, fact discovery is in its initial stages and expert discovery has not yet begun.
`
`Accordingly, Defendant reserves the right to withdraw, supplement, modify, expand or amend
`
`its proposed claim constructions based on further investigation, fact or expert discovery, or as a
`
`result of any information disclosed by Plaintiff or any third party, including the disclosure of
`
`any claim construction, infringement, and/or validity position not previously disclosed.
