`
`DECLARATION OF JUSTIN DENISON IN SUPPORT OF SAMSUNG’S MOTION TO
`
`TRANSFER VENUE TO THE DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY
`
`1, Justin Denison, hereby declare and state as follows:
`
`1.
`
`1 am the Chief Strategy Officer at Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC
`
`(“STA”).
`
`I have held this position for approximately 10 months and have been employed by
`
`STA in various positions since May of 2008.
`
`I submit this declaration in support of Samsung’s
`
`Motion To Transfer Venue To The District of New Jersey. The statements in this declaration are
`
`based upon my personal knowledge or corporate records maintained by STA in the ordinary
`
`course of business.
`
`2.
`
`STA, a Delaware limited liability company,
`
`is a wholly owned subsidiary of
`
`Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (“SEA”). STA’s corporate headquarters are located at 1301
`
`East Lookout Dr., Richardson, Texas 75082, which is where I work.
`
`I reside in Allen, Texas.
`
`3.
`
`STA develops and commercializes a variety of wireless communication devices
`
`across the United States, including smartphones, cellular-equipped tablets, and Galaxy cameras.
`
`4.
`
`I have been advised that B.E. Technology, L.L.C. (“B.E. Technology”) has filed
`
`NY 242$/3?2?3v3

`

`
`Case 2:12-cv-02825-JPM-tmp Document 31-13 Filed 01/22/13 Page 2 of 3 PageID 228
`Case 2:12—cv—O2825—JPM—tmp Document 31-13 Filed 01/22/13 Page 2 of 3 Page|D 228
`
`patent infringement lawsuits against STA and SEA (collectively, “Defendants” or ‘‘Samsung’‘).
`
`I
`
`understand that B.E. Technology has accused several Samsung products of infringing its patent,
`
`including certain smartphones, tablets, Blu«ray Disc players, Smart TVs, cameras, media players,
`
`home theater systems, and personal computers through the inclusion and use of certain software
`
`and services developed by Samsung, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, Barnes &
`
`Noble, and Kno Inc.
`
`5.
`
`In my position as Chief Strategy Officer, I lead the corporate planning process for
`
`STA. My team conducts market analysis on behalf of the organization, helps facilitate some of
`
`the strategic decision making inside the company and has corporate development responsibilities
`
`for new growth opportunities for STA.
`
`I have knowledge of sales and marketing involving all of
`
`STA's products.
`
`6.
`
`The majority of potentially relevant documents and things
`
`related to the
`
`marketing, sale, and distribution of the accused smartphones, cellular-equipped tablets, and
`
`Galaxy cameras sold by STA (the “Accused STA Products”) are physically located at STA’s
`
`offices in Richardson, Texas.
`
`7.
`
`I am informed and believe that potentially relevant financial information related
`
`to the Accused STA Products is stored on servers in New Jersey.
`
`8.
`
`The majority of potential witnesses from STA with relevant knowledge
`
`concerning the accused products, including me, work at STA’s offices in Richardson, Texas, and
`
`reside nearby.
`
`9.
`
`STA has a facility in Bridgewater, New Jersey.
`
`STA personnel at
`
`the
`
`Bridgewater, New Jersey facility perform some research and development
`
`related to
`
`smartphones.

`
`10.
`
`STA has no facilities in Tennessee.
`
`11.
`
`I am informed and believe that STA also conducts certain operations out of
`
`facilities in San Jose, California.
`
`12.
`
`I am informed and believe that other STA employees with potentially relevant
`
`knowledge concerning the development, commercialization, design, and manufacture of the
`
`Accused STA Products also travel
`
`to Samsung’s facilities in Ridgefield, New Jersey in
`
`connection with their employment at STA.
`
`13.
`
`None of the Accused STA Products are manufactured in or purchased from
`
`entities located in the Western District of Tennessee.
`
`***
`
`I declare under the penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the
`
`foregoing is true and correct.
