`PLAINTIFF AGIS SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LLC’S SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL
`OBJECTIONS AND RESPONSES TO DEFENDANT HTC CORPORATION’S
`FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES TO PLAINTIFF (NOS. 1-15)
`
`PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that, pursuant to Rules 26 and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil
`
`Procedure, Plaintiff AGIS Software Development LLC (“AGIS” or “Plaintiff”) hereby
`
`supplements its response to Defendant HTC Corporation’s (“HTC”) First Set of Interrogatories
`
`to Plaintiff (Nos. 1-15) in writing, under oath, and in accordance with the following definitions
`
`and instructions. These Interrogatories are continuing in nature and require supplementation in
`
`accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as follows:
`
`These responses are made solely for the purposes of this action, and are made without
`
`waiving, or intending to waive, the right at any time to revise, correct, modify, supplement or
`
`clarify any response provided herein or the right to object on any proper grounds to the use of
`
`these responses, for any purpose in whole or in part, in any subsequent proceedings or any other
`
`action. The right to raise any applicable objections at any time is expressly reserved. A response
`
`to any interrogatory herein should not be taken as an admission or acceptance of the existence of
`
`any facts set forth or assumed by such interrogatory, or that such response constitutes admissible
`
`
`
`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00514-JRG Document 161-22 Filed 02/13/19 Page 3 of 9 PageID #: 14407
`
`
`
`INTERROGATORY NO. 13
`
`“joining a communication network corresponding to a group, wherein joining the
`communication network comprises transmitting a message including an identifier corresponding
`to the group”
`
`If You contend that any Instrumentality made by HTC Corp. practices the above quoted
`claim limitation of claims 1 and 54 of the ’838 patent, either directly or indirectly, explain the
`basis for Your contention including a specific element-by-element identification of the specific
`functionality of the HTC Corp. Instrumentality that corresponds to the following elements:
`
`(a) communication network;
`(b) group;
`I message; and
`(d) identifier.
`
`RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 13
`
`AGIS hereby incorporates the General Objections as if fully set forth herein. AGIS
`
`further objects to this interrogatory as vague, ambiguous, overbroad, unduly burdensome, and
`
`not proportional to the needs of the case because the burden or expense of the proposed
`
`discovery outweighs its likely benefit. AGIS further objects to this interrogatory to the extent it
`
`seeks information protected by the attorney-client privilege, attorney work product doctrine,
`
`and/or any other applicable privilege. AGIS further objects to this interrogatory on the ground it
`
`seeks information publicly available. AGIS further objects to this interrogatory on the ground it
`
`seeks information not within the custody, possession, or control of AGIS. AGIS further objects
`
`to this interrogatory as it seeks information that is the topic of expert discovery.
`
`AGIS objects to this interrogatory because it seeks information already in HTC’s
`
`possession and is duplicative of information provided in accordance with the Court’s patent
`
`rules.
`
`
`
`
`
`Case 2:17-cv-00514-JRG Document 161-22 Filed 02/13/19 Page 4 of 9 PageID #: 14408
`
`
`
`AGIS objects to this interrogatory because the interrogatory is an improper compound
`
`request. AGIS objects to this interrogatory because the interrogatory contains multiple distinct
`
`sub-parts (at least four), each of which counts towards HTC’s total number of interrogatories.
`
`Notwithstanding its general and specific objections, AGIS answers as follows:
`
`Discovery in this case is still ongoing and AGIS continues to investigate this matter. AGIS
`
`directs HTC to the factual and legal bases of HTC’s infringement of the above-quoted claim
`
`limitation as shown in AGIS’s P.R. 3-1 Disclosures, i.e., infringement contentions, which were
`
`served on January 19, 2018.
`
`SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 13 (12/7/2018):
`
`
`
`Subject to and without waiving its foregoing General and Specific Objections, AGIS
`
`responds as follows:
`
`
`
`AGIS incorporates by reference as if fully set forth herein its Disclosure of Asserted
`
`Claims and Infringement Contentions and Amended Disclosure of Asserted Claims and
`
`Infringement Contentions, served on January 19, 2018 and May 25, 2018, respectively. AGIS
`
`further states that information responsive to this Interrogatory will be produced in AGIS’s expert
`
`reports in accordance with this Court’s scheduling order. AGIS will supplement its response to
`
`this Interrogatory, if necessary, once the Court and/or the parties clarify the scope of the claims
`
`by virtue of the claim construction process.

`
`
`
`INTERROGATORY NO. 14
`
`“wherein the first device does not have access to respective Internet Protocol addresses of
`the second devices”
`
`If You contend that any Instrumentality made by HTC Corp. practices the above quoted
`claim limitation of claims 1 and 24 of the ’251 patent, either directly or indirectly, provide the
`basis for Your contention including a specific identification of the specific functionality of the
`HTC Corp. Instrumentality that You allege practices the phrase “does not have access.”
