`Consolidated Case
`
`APPLE INC.’S FINAL ELECTION OF PRIOR ART REFERENCES
`
`Defendant Apple Inc. (“Apple”) serves its Final Election of Prior Art References, as set
`
`forth below, pursuant to the Court’s Sixth Amended Docket Control Order (Dkt. No. 193) and in
`
`view of Plaintiff AGIS Software Development, LLC’s (“AGIS”) August 15, 2018 Final Election
`
`of Asserted Claims. Apple expressly reserves its right to assert at or before trial that the patents-
`
`in-suit are invalid for additional reasons, including (without limitation) under 35 U.S.C. §§ 101
`
`and/or 112. Apple further expressly reserves its rights to assert additional prior art references
`
`uncovered during the course of fact discovery (including, but not limited to, any references based
`
`upon discovery from third parties).
`
`In addition, as Apple explained in its December 1, 2017 Patent Rule 3-3 Invalidity
`
`Contentions and April 16, 2018 Amended Patent Rule 3-3 Invalidity Contentions, U.S. Pat. Nos.
`
`9,408,055; 9,445,251; 9,467,838; and 9,749,829 are entitled to a priority date no earlier than
`
`October 31, 2014. Apple expressly reserves its right to assert at trial that, under that priority date,
`
`to the extent that any of the accused Apple products are determined to infringe any claim of any
`
`of those asserted patents, those accused Apple products would also render the claims invalid under
`
`

`

`Case 2:17-cv-00513-JRG Document 286-1 Filed 01/14/19 Page 3 of 16 PageID #: 18787
`
`at least AIA 35 U.S.C. § 102(a)(1) because they were each in public use and on sale or available
`
`for download before the effective filing date of those patents. Apple further reserves the right to
`
`assert at trial that, under that priority date, earlier AGIS patents and/or applications, including
`
`(without limitation) U.S. Patent No. 7,630,724, would also render the claims invalid under at least
`
`AIA 35 U.S.C. § 102(a)(1) because they were publicly available before the effective filing date of
`
`the those asserted patents.
`
`I.

`II.
`
`U.S. Pat. No. 9,408,055
`
`The asserted claims of U.S. Pat. No. 9,408,055 are invalid in view of the following prior
`
`art references alone, in combination with one another, and/or in combination with the knowledge
`
`of a person of ordinary skill in the art prior to the date of the alleged invention of the asserted
`
`claims:
`
` AGIS’s LifeRing1 product and its prototypes anticipate asserted claims, as described in
`at least the materials identified in Exhibit B-2 to Apple’s Patent Rule 3-3 Invalidity
`Contentions served December 1, 2017, Apple’s Amended Patent Rule 3-3 Invalidity

`
` The Force XXI Battle Command, Brigade and Below system anticipates asserted
`claims and renders asserted claims obvious in combination with the knowledge of a

`(APL-AGIS_00011986 - APL-AGIS_00012004) or in combination with United States

`1 Apple’s contentions regarding LifeRing are based on AGIS’s own contentions and actions regarding the LifeRing
`product practicing asserted claims (e.g., discovery responses and patent marking), as well as Apple’s contention that
`the asserted claims are entitled to a priority date no earlier than October 31, 2014. Apple’s discovery into the operation
`of the LifeRing product is ongoing, but AGIS’s production of discovery concerning the system remains deficient.
