Professional Corporations 

Plaintiffs and Counterclaim-Defendants Avago Technologies General IP PTE Ltd. and 

Avago Technologies ECBU IP PTE Ltd. (collectively "Avago") and Defendants and 

Counterclaimants Elan Microelectronics Corp. and Elan Information Technology Group 

(collectively "Elan") jointly submit this request that the Court make the following changes to the 

deadlines previously set by the Court in its Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b) Scheduling Order of December 

12, 2006 (Docket Item 154). As explained below, good cause exists for the changes: 

Initial Expert Disclosures: May 29, 2007 (presently April 16, 2007) 

Rebuttal Expert Disclosures: June 18, 2007 (presently April 30, 2007) 

Discovery Cut-Off (Expert & Fact): July 9, 2007 (presently June 18, 2007) 

Dispositive Hearing Cut-Off: September 10, 2007 (presently August 20, 2007) 

All other dates, including the October 22, 2007, Final Pretrial Conference, remain the 

same. 

Good cause exists to make these minor modifications for several reasons, including the 

following: The Court ordered additional claim construction of one term in asserted claim 4 of 

U.S. Patent No. 6,433,780 on February 8, 2007. The Court currently has a hearing on calendar for 

this claim construction on March 23, 2007. The parties should have time to digest the Court’s 

further claim constructions before expert reports are due. Furthermore, the parties have been 

diligently pursuing discovery since the Court issued its initial claim construction order in August 

18, 2007. The parties, nevertheless, have been unable to resolve certain discovery disputes, and 

several motions are pending before Magistrate Judge Lloyd at this time. Two are under 

submission and one has just been filed. Disposition of these motions may further affect the scope 

of remaining discovery and the information available for the parties’ respective experts in 

preparation of their reports and, as appropriate, their depositions. 

The parties respectfully submit that the Court should enter the Proposed Order attached 

hereto and filed herewith.
