STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

SUBSTITUTING PARTY Case No. 5:04-cv-05385-JW 

- 1 - 

This action involves inter alia claims for patent infringement and counterclaims for 

invalidity and noninfringement of the following patents: U.S. Patent No. 6,433,780, entitled 

"Seeing Eye Mouse For A Computer System;" and U.S. Patent No. 5,786,804, entitled "Method 

and System for Tracking Attitude." At the time this action was filed, these patents were assigned 

to Agilent Technologies, Inc. ("Agilent"). 

Agilent's entire right, title and interest in the patents-in-suit has been transferred and 

assigned to Avago Technologies General IP PTE Ltd. and Avago Technologies ECBU IP PTE 

Ltd., both companies being organized and incorporated under the laws of Singapore. Accordingly, 

Agilent no longer has any interest in this litigation. 

Therefore, the parties to this action, through their respective attorneys of record, stipulate 

and agree as follows: 

(1) Agilent Technologies, Inc., is no longer a party to this action, except for the purposes 

of continued discovery as further described below, as its entire right title, and interest in the 

patents-in-suit has been transferred and assigned to Avago Technologies General IP PTE Ltd. and 

Avago Technologies ECBU IP PTE Ltd. 

(2) Agilent Technologies, Inc., will be treated as a party to this action only to the extent it 

needs to fulfill any current and future discovery obligations, including but not limited to, (a) 

responding to and supplementing its responses to interrogatories and document requests already 

served on it, (b) responding to any additional document requests and interrogatories served by 

Defendants in this case, and (c) producing witnesses who are current employees of Agilent or 

whom Agilent has control over, both for depositions and at trial. 

(3) Subject to the conditions of paragraph (2) above, Avago Technologies General IP PTE 

Ltd. and Avago Technologies ECBU IP PTE Ltd. are jointly substituted as parties to this action in 

place of Agilent Technologies, Inc., pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 25(c). 

(3) Avago Technologies General IP PTE Ltd. and Avago Technologies ECBU IP PTE 

Ltd., hereby acknowledge actual notice of this action and subject themselves to the jurisdiction of 

this Court in this action.
