Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii), Plaintiff JAMES B. GOODMAN ("Goodman") 

and Defendant NUMONYX B.V. (“Numonyx B.V.”) submit this Stipulated Dismissal with 

Prejudice. 

It has come to the attention of Goodman that Numonyx B.V. has been purchased by a 

licensee of Goodman and since that acquisition, Numonyx B.V. has become licensed under the 

patent-in-suit. In addition, Numonyx B.V. has represented to Goodman that certain psram 

products (a component of the alleged infringement) used outside the United States by Numonyx 

B.V. in the accused products in the Complaint were purchased from other licensees of Goodman. 

Hence, Goodman has concluded that if there is any liability of Numonyx B.V. under the patent-insuit, the potential damages would be insignificant as compared to the cost of litigation. Therefore, 

as long as Numonyx B.V. remains licensed for the patent-in-suit, Numonyx B.V. has no liability 

for infringement of the patent-in-suit. 

Therefore, the Parties Stipulate and Agree that all claims and counterclaims in the above 

litigation should be dismissed with prejudice. 

Each party shall bear its own attorney fees and expenses.
