SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission instituted this investigation 

on November 4, 2005, based on a 

complaint filed by Toshiba Corporation 

of Tokyo, Japan (‘‘Toshiba’’) under 

section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337. 70 FR 67192–

193 (November 4, 2005). The 

complainant alleged violations of 

section 337 in the importation and sale 

of certain flash memory devices and 

components thereof, and products 

containing such devices and 

components, by reason of infringement 

of claims 1–4 of U.S. Patent No. 

5,150,178 (‘‘the ‘178 patent’’); claims 1, 

6 and 7 of U.S. Patent No. 5,270,969 

(‘‘the ‘969 patent’’); and claims 1 and 4 

of U.S. Patent No. 5,517,449 (‘‘the ‘449 

patent’’). The complainant named Hynix 

Semiconductor of Ischon-si, Republic of 

Korea, and Hynix Semiconductor 

America, Inc. of San Jose, California 

(collectively ‘‘Hynix’’) as respondents. 

On November 21, 2005, Toshiba 

moved for leave to amend the complaint 

to add claim 5 of the ‘178 patent. On 

December 2, 2005, the ALJ issued an ID 

(Order No. 4) granting the motion to 

amend the complaint. The Commission 

determined not to review this ID. 

An evidentiary hearing was held from 

July 5, 2006, through July 13, 2006. On 

November 65, 2006, the ALJ issued his 

final ID and recommended 

determination on remedy and bonding. 

The ALJL concluded that there was no 

violation of section 337. Specifically, he 

found that the asserted claims of the 

‘178, ‘969, and ‘449 patents are not 

infringed and are not valid, and that 

there is no domestic industry involving 

the three patents. 

On November 17, 2006, complainant 

Toshiba, the Commission investigative 

attorney, and respondent Hynix 

petitioned for review of various portions 

of the final ID. On November 28, 2006, 

all parties filed responses to the 

petitions for review. 

Having examined the record of this 

investigation, including the ALJ’s final 

ID, the petitions for review, and the 

responses thereto, the Commission has 

determined not to review the ALJ’s ID, 

and has terminated the investigation. 

The authority for the Commission’s 

determination is contained in section 

337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in 

section 210.42–45 of the Commission’s 

Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 

210.42–45). 

Issued: December 22, 2006. 

By order of the Commission. 

Marilyn R. Abbott, 

Secretary to the Commission.
