`(collectively “Samsung”) regarding U.S. Patent Nos. 8,441,438 and 8,552,978.
`
`No discovery or claim construction has taken place yet in this case. As a result, CyWee

`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00140-RWS-RSP Document 41-2 Filed 10/12/17 Page 3 of 6 PageID #: 776
`
`B. Separately for each asserted claim, each accused apparatus, product, device,
`process, method, act, or other instrumentality (“Accused Instrumentality”) of each
`opposing party of which the party is aware. This identification shall be as specific as
`possible. Each product, device, and apparatus must be identified by name or model
`number, if known. Each method or process must be identified by name, if known, or by
`any product, device, or apparatus which, when used, allegedly results in the practice of
`the claimed method or process.
`
`1. The ’438 Patent
`
`Each of the following accused products infringes each asserted claim of the ’438
`
`patent: Samsung phones and tablets, which run a version of the Android operating system
`
`and include a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope and/or a 6-axis
`
`accelerometer/gyroscope sensor module, released in the United States concurrently with or
`
`after the release of the Galaxy S6 including the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy S6
`
`Edge+, Galaxy S6 Active, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S7 Active, Galaxy Note5,
`
`Galaxy Tab S2 8.0, Galaxy Tab S2 9.7, Galaxy Note 7, Galaxy Tab S3 9.7, Galaxy J3
`
`Emerge, Galaxy S8, and Galaxy S8+.
`
`2. The ’978 Patent
`
`Each of the following accused products infringes each asserted claim of the ’978
`
`patent: Samsung phones and tablets, which run a version of the Android operating system
`
`and include a 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis gyroscope, and 3-axis magnetometer and/or a
`
`combination of any of the previous elements (such as a 6-axis or 9-axis sensor module) such
`
`that the device is operable to detect 3-axis acceleration, 3-axis rotation, and 3-axis
`
`magnetism, released in the United States concurrently with or after the release of the Galaxy
`
`S6 including the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy S6 Edge+, Galaxy S6 Active, Galaxy S7,
`
`Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S7 Active, Galaxy Note5, Galaxy Tab S2 8.0, Galaxy Tab S2 9.7,
`

`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00140-RWS-RSP Document 41-2 Filed 10/12/17 Page 4 of 6 PageID #: 777
`
`C. A chart identifying specifically where each element of each asserted claim is
`found within each Accused Instrumentality, including for each element that such party
`contends is governed by 35 U.S.C. 112(6), the identity of the structure(s), act(s), or
`material(s) in the Accused Instrumentality that performs the claimed function.
`
`Claim charts are provided as Exhibits 1 through 28. Each claim chart is an exemplar
`
`of how all Samsung devices manufactured using the same or similar technology infringes
`
`each asserted claim. Nothing in these claim charts is intended to prevent CyWee from
`
`presenting additional evidence of infringement at trial.
`
`D. Whether each element of each asserted claim is claimed to be literally present
`or present under the doctrine of equivalents in the Accused Instrumentality.
`
`CyWee contends that each asserted claim is literally infringed by Samsung’s accused
`
`products, as indicated by the claim charts referenced above. In the alternative, CyWee
`
`contends that any asserted claim not found to be literally infringed is infringed under the
`
`doctrine of equivalents.
`
`E. For any patent that claims priority to an earlier application, the priority date to
`which each asserted claim allegedly is entitled.
`
`CyWee alleges that all asserted claims of the ’438 patent and claims 10 and 12 of the
`
`’978 patent are entitled to a priority date as of January 6, 2010, based on the date of
`
`provisional application no. 61/292,558. But CyWee further alleges that those claims are
`
`entitled to an earlier priority date based on work related to the JIL Phone prototype. More
`
`specifically, CyWee alleges that all asserted claims of the ’438 patent are entitled to a
`
`priority date of July 29, 2009. CyWee further alleges that claims 10 and 12 of the ’978 patent
`
`are entitled to a priority date of September 25, 2009.
`
`F. If a party claiming patent infringement wishes to preserve the right to rely, for
`any purpose, on the assertion that its own apparatus, product, device, process, method,
`act, or other instrumentality practices the claimed invention, the party must identify,

`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00140-RWS-RSP Document 41-2 Filed 10/12/17 Page 5 of 6 PageID #: 778
`
`separately for each asserted claim, each such apparatus, product, device, process,
`method, act, or other instrumentality that incorporates or reflects that particular claim.
`
`CyWee alleges that the JIL Phone prototype practices all asserted claims of the
`
`patents-in-suit.
`
`II.

`marketing materials, offer letters, beta site testing agreements, and third party or joint
