`
`Defendants Huawei Device Co., Ltd., Huawei Device USA, Inc. (together, “Huawei”) and
`
`Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (together, “Samsung”)
`
`(collectively, “Defendants”) provide these Invalidity and Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions
`
`concerning U.S. Patent Nos. 7,933,431 (“’431 Patent”), 8,194,924 (“’924 Patent), 8,553,079
`
`(“’079 Patent”), and 8,878,949 (“’949 Patent”) (collectively, “Asserted Patents”) pursuant to the
`
`Court’s Docket Control Order (Dkt. No. 44), Local Patent Rule (“P.R.”) 3-3, and the Court’s
`
`Standing Order Regarding Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions.
`
`Defendants’ Invalidity and Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions reflect Defendants’
`
`knowledge as of this early date in the present action. Defendants reserve the right, to the extent
`
`permitted by the Court and the applicable statutes and rules, to modify and/or supplement their
`
`Invalidity and Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions in response to becoming aware of additional
`
`prior art or other information regarding invalidity, additional information regarding subject-matter
`
`eligibility, any modification or supplementation of Plaintiff’s Infringement Contentions, any claim
`
`construction by the Court, or as otherwise may be appropriate.
`
`The Docket Control Order, Patent Rules, and Standing Order Regarding Subject-Matter
`
`Eligibility Contentions contemplate these Invalidity and Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions
`
`being prepared and served in response to Plaintiff’s Infringement Contentions and the allegations
`
`therein regarding Plaintiff’s theory of infringement with respect to each Accused Instrumentality.
`
`Plaintiff’s Infringement Contentions, however, are fundamentally deficient because they fail to
`
`provide full, fair, and timely disclosure as to how Defendants allegedly infringe each element of
`
`each asserted claim of the Asserted Patents (“Asserted Claims”). Accordingly, Defendants reserve
`
`the right to seek leave to amend these Invalidity and Subject-Matter Eligibility Contentions as may
`
`be appropriate. Defendants also reserve the right to seek leave to amend in light of positions that

`
`Defendants identify apparatus Claim 11 of the ’079 Patent as representative of Claims 1
`
`through 6, 8, 9, 13 through 15, 19, 21 through 26, 28, 30. GTP called out claim 11 as representative
`
`in its Complaint. Dependent Claims 13, 14, 15, and 19 only provide further specificity on the well-
`
`known, conventional components that appear in Claims 11 or recite known operations that could
`
`have been performed on those components. Method claims 1 and 21 appear to be an attempt to
`
`cast the representative system of Claim 11 as method claims. Dependent Claims 2 through 6, 8,
`
`9, 22 through 26, 28 and 30. Only provide further specificity on the well-known, conventional
`
`steps that appear in Claims 1 and 21.
