`

`
`
`
`C.
`
`CLAIM CHARTS
`
`Claim charts identifying a location of every element of every asserted claim of the patents-
`
`in-suit within LG Accused Products are attached hereto as Exhibits A–D. AGIS believes that the
`
`citations in the claim charts are representative of all LG Accused Products. For example, where
`
`AGIS cites reference material or images representing a phone or tablet, that citation is
`
`representative for all other such phones or tablets including all prior and future versions unless
`
`otherwise noted. AGIS reserves the right to amend these claim charts as well as other information
`
`contained in this document and the exhibits hereto, to incorporate new information learned during
`
`the course of discovery, including, but not limited to, information that is not publically available
`
`or readily discernible without discovery. AGIS further reserves the right to amend these claim
`
`charts, as well as other information contained in this document and the exhibits attached hereto,
`
`pursuant to Patent Local Rules 3-1(g) and 3-6.
`
`D.
`
`LITERAL INFRINGEMENT AND DOCTRINE OF EQUIVALENTS
`
`AGIS asserts that, under the proper construction of the asserted claims and their claim
`
`terms, the limitations of the asserted claims of the patents-in-suit are literally present in the LG
`
`Accused Products as set forth in the claim charts attached hereto as Exhibits A–D. AGIS
`
`contends that any and all elements found not to be literally infringed are infringed under the
`
`doctrine of equivalents because the differences between the claimed inventions and the accused
`
`instrumentalities, if any, are insubstantial.
`
`AGIS contends that LG directly infringes the asserted claims by making, using, offering
`
`for sale, selling, and importing in to the United States the accused instrumentalities as well as
`
`indirectly infringe by contributing to and/or inducing others (e.g., LG customers or its LG

`
`
`
`customers’ customers) to directly infringe those claims by making, using, offering for sale or
`
`selling the LG Accused Products. AGIS contends that LG directly infringes the asserted claims
`
`by testing the LG Accused Products in the United States. AGIS contends that LG infringes the
`
`asserted claims by contributing to and/or inducing Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and/or
`
`jointly-and-directly infringing the asserted claims with MNOs by making, using, offering for sale,
`
`selling, and importing in to the United States the accused instrumentalities.
`
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 3-6(a)(1), AGIS reserves the right to amend its Infringement
`
`Contentions as to literal infringement or infringement under the doctrine of equivalents, e.g., in
`
`light of the Court’s claim construction.
`
`E.
`
`PRIORITY DATES
`
`Under P.R. 3-1(e), each of the asserted claims of the patents-in-suit are entitled to a
`
`priority date of at least as early as September 21, 2004. AGIS reserves the right to establish an
`
`earlier date of invention based upon actions related to conception and reduction to practice of the
`
`claimed inventions.
`
`F.
`
`AGIS’S OWN PRODUCTS
`
`At the present time, AGIS does not intend to rely on the assertion that its own apparatuses,
`
`products, devices, processes, methods, acts, or other instrumentalities practice the claimed
`
`inventions. AGIS reserves the right to amend this statement to identify covered products as
`
`discovery progresses.

`
`
`II.
`
`PRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS PURSUANT TO PATENT LOCAL RULE 3-2
`
`AGIS is producing or making available for inspection documents that are in AGIS’S
`
`possession, custody or control as set forth in Patent Local Rule 3-2. An AGIS 3-2 Production
`
`Index identifying these documents is attached hereto.
`
`This preliminary identification of documents is for convenience and is not an admission
`
`that each document falls within any exemplary categories in the Patent Local Rules, or that any
`
`document qualifies as prior art. AGIS is continuing with its investigation, particularly with
`
`respect to ESI. Thus, AGIS reserves its right to add to, delete from, or otherwise modify its
`
`disclosures in this section as its investigation proceeds.
`
`Production of these documents is governed by Patent Local Rule 2-2, and, with the
`
`exception of documents produced pursuant to P.R. 3.2(c) and public documents listed in the
`
`infringement charts, are considered “Confidential – Outside Attorneys Eyes Only” and disclosure
`
`of the confidential document or information shall be limited to each party’s outside attorney(s) of
`
`record and the employees of such outside attorney(s).

`(V510), G Pad 8.3 Black (V500). AGIS reserves the right to amend this list of accused tablets as discovery progresses. For example,
`the Accused Products comprise LG products, including but not limited to the phones and tablets as described herein, running the
`following versions (and all intervening updates and sub-versions) of the Android mobile operating system: Android 2.3, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2,
`4.3, 4.4, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 7.0, 7.1, 8.0, and 8.1. For example, the Accused Products comprise LG products, including but not limited to the
`phones and tablets as described herein, running any versions of the following Android-based applications and/or software: Android
`Device Manager, Find My Phone, Find My Device, Google Latitude, Google Plus, Google Hangouts, Google Maps, Google Assistant,
`Google Search, Google Messages, Android Messenger, Google Allo, Google Duo, GMail, and Google Chrome. For example, the
`Accused Products comprise LG products, including but not limited to the phones and tablets described herein, participating in any
`networks and/or services related to the execution and/or use of the Android mobile operating system versions and Android-based
`applications and/or software described herein.
`
`AGIS does not concede that any claims of the ’970 Patent that are not listed below are not infringed by the identified products.
`
`Moreover, the citations to certain documents and other information below are intended to be exemplary only and in no way foreclose
`AGIS from citing or relying on additional documents, information, source code, and/or testimony at a later time. These contentions
`are preliminary in nature, and an analysis of LG’s products, internal documentation, source code, and/or testimony from relevant
`witnesses may more fully and accurately describe the infringing features of its accused products. Accordingly, AGIS reserves the
`right to supplement, correct, modify, and/or amend these contentions once such additional information is made available to AGIS.
`Furthermore, AGIS reserves the right to supplement, correct, modify, and/or amend these contentions as discovery in this case
`progresses; in view of the Court’s claim construction order(s); in view of any positions taken by LG, including but not limited to
`positions on claim construction, invalidity, and/or non-infringement; and in connection with the preparation and exchange of expert
`reports.

`
`
`
`
`Claim
`1[P]. A communication system for
`transmitting, receiving, confirming
`receipt, and responding to an
`electronic message, comprising: a
`predetermined network of
`participants, wherein each participant
`has a similarly equipped PDA/cell
`phone that includes a CPU and a
`touch screen display a CPU and
`memory;
`
`Accused Products
`The Accused Products together constitute a “communication system” for transmitting,
`receiving, confirming receipt, and responding to an electronic message, comprising: a
`predetermined network of participants, wherein each participant has a similarly equipped
`PDA/cell phone that includes a CPU and a touch screen display, a CPU, and memory.
`
`LG makes, uses, sells, and otherwise provides this communication system by making, using,
`selling, and importing Android OS devices such as Accused Products.
`
`The Accused Products meet the claim limitations by providing device-location tracking
`features such as those features described below. For example, the Accused Products meet the
`claim limitations because they are pre-installed with Android mobile operating systems
`containing code for providing device-location tracking features as provided in the claims
`limitations herein. For example, the Accused Products run applications and/or software that
`run within the Android mobile operating system and that use components of the Android
`mobile operating system to provide device-location tracking features. Upon information and
`belief, in addition to the components and features of the Android mobile operating system
`itself, the following applications and/or software run within the Android mobile operating
`system and use components of the Android mobile operating system to provide device-
`location tracking features: Android Device Manager, Find My Device.
`
`Android Device Manager is the predecessor to Find My Device and has been available as a
`standard, pre-installed feature since 2013 and downloadable as a software application. The
`current iteration, Find My Device, often called the “new and improved Android Device
`Manager” or “rebranded Android Device Manager” is now part of the standard Google Play
`Protect suite which is “built in and enabled on all devices,” i.e., the Accused Products running
`Android OS. AGIS sets forth the Find My Device feature of the Accused Products as
`representative of this method. AGIS reserves the right to supplement these contentions to the
`extent that LG requires additional information in accordance with P.R. 3-1 and for any other
`reason for which it may deem necessary.

`
`
`
`[1A] a data transmission means that
`facilitates the transmission of
`electronic files between said
`PDA/cell phones in different
`locations;
`
`[1B] a sender PDA/cell phone and at
`least one recipient PDA/cell phone
`for each electronic message;
`
`[1C] a forced message alert software
`application program including a list
`of required possible responses to be
`selected by a participant recipient of
`a forced message response loaded on
`each participating PDA/cell phone;

`Structure: Communications network server; Communication network interfaces ’970 Patent at
`1:39-43; 2:36-43; Figs. 2, 3A, 3B, and 4.
`
`The Accused Products meet this limitation. LG provides access to one or more
`communication network servers via a modem interface such as a 3G or LTE modem.
`LG makes, uses, imports, sells or otherwise provides Android devices, such as the Accused
`Products, to its customers. These devices include PDA/cell phones, i.e. smartphones, tablets,
`and other devices with cellular connections. Each claimed electronic message is sent from at
`least one Accused Product to another Accused Product, which share a common “Google
`Account.”
`
`See claim 1[P]
`LG makes, uses, imports, sells, or otherwise provides a forced message alert software
`application program including a list of required possible responses to be selected by a
`participant recipient of a forced message response loaded on each participating PDA/cell
`phone.
`
`For example, LG’s Find My Device software application, which LG provides as a pre-installed
`feature and a downloadable as a software application allows Android OS users to track other
`LG devices, such as PDA/cell phones and tablets, linked to the same Google Account. Find
`My Devices provides a list of the status for each device within the same Google Account” that
`tracks location status, responses to location requests / time since last update, and actual

`
`[1E]said forced message alert
`software packet containing a list of
`possible required responses and
`requiring the forced message alert
`software on said recipient PDA/cell

`acknowledgment to the sender
`
`Function: attaching a forced message alert software packet to a voice or text message creating
`a forced message alert that is transmitted by said sender PDA/cell phone to the recipient
`PDA/cell phone.
`
`Structure: Algorithm set forth in Fig 2, 3A, 3B. 7:8-63.
`
`LG’s Find My Device feature allows Android OS users to track other phones, tablets, and
`computers linked to the same Google Account. Find My Device provides a list of the status for
`each device that tracks location status, response to location requests / time since last update,
`and actual locations.
`
`The Sender electronically transmits the message to the Receiver through the use of the
`Accused Products. Because this is a security feature, the recipient phones have no control over
`the receipt of the message and thus the message is “forced.”
`
`The forced message alert causes automatic responses as shown in the response list in 1[C]
`above.
`
`This claim is literally met by one or more TCP/IP or other protocol packets (including LG’s
`specific protocols via one or more communication network servers via a modem interface such
`as a 3G or LTE modem.. To the extent that the claims literally cover only a single packet, the
`limitation would still be
