`
`Hon. Jon Phipps McCalla
`

`
`DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL
`
`DECLARATION OF MARK BUCKLEY
`
`IN SUPPORT OF APPLE'S MOTION TO T3ANSFER__\_/ENUE
`
`I, Mark Buckley, hereby declare:
`
`1.
`
`I am employed as Finance Manager at Apple Inc. (“Apple") in Cupertino,
`
`California. I have been employed by Apple since October 2002. I provide this declaration in
`
`support of Apple’s motion to transfer venue. Unless otherwise indicated below, the statements in
`
`this declaration are based either upon my personal knowledge or corporate records maintained by
`
`Apple in the ordinary course of business.
`
`2.
`
`Apple designs, manufactures, and markets personal computers, portable digital
`
`music players, and mobile communication devices and sells a variety of related software,
`
`services, peripherals, and networking solutions.
`
`3.
`
`Apple is a California corporation headquartered in Cupertino in the Northern
`
`District of California. Apple’s management and primary research and development facilities are
`
`located in Cupertino. Apple has approximately 13,700 employees who work in or near its
`
`headquarters in Cupertino.

`
`4.
`
`I understand that in this case, the Plaintiff has accused the following Apple
`
`products of infringement:
`
`iPad, iPod touch, iPhone, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air, Mac mini,
`
`iMac, and Apple TV (the “accused products”). Although I understand that it is unclear at this
`
`time which versions of these products are accused, I am informed and believe that the research,
`
`design, and development of all versions of each of these products primarily took place in
`
`Cupertino. The foreseeable Apple witnesses with knowledge of the research, design, and
`
`development of the accused products reside or work in or near Cupertino. In addition, virtually
`
`all Apple business documents and records relating to the research, design, development,
`
`marketing strategy and product revenue for the accused products are likely to be located in or
`
`near Cupertino.
`
`5.
`
`As of the date of this declaration, Apple has approximately 250 stores in the
`
`United States. Only one of these stores is located in the Western District of Tennessee, in the city
`
`of Germantown. Based on the information available to me, none of the employees in the
`
`Germantown retail store could be characterized as a relevant witness regarding the accused
`
`products. None of the employees in Apple”s Germantown retail store has any responsibility for
`
`the research, design or development of the accused products. Aside from the Germantown store,
`
`Apple does not otherwise maintain any facilities, employees, or relevant documents in the
`
`Western District of Tennessee.
`
`I declare under penalty of perj ury under the laws of the United States of America that the
`
`foregoing is true and correct.

`Mark Buckley
`Finance Manager
