# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Commission instituted this investigation on February 15, 2007, based on a complaint filed on January 9, 2007, by Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”) of Japan. 72 FR 7457-8. The complaint, as supplemented, alleges violations of section 337 in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of certain NAND flash memory devices and components thereof, and products containing same, by reason of infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,703,658; U.S. Patent No. 6,424,588; and U.S. Patent No. 5,627,782. The complaint names two respondents: Hynix Semiconductor Inc. of Korea and Hynix Semiconductor America Inc. of San Jose, California (collectively “Hynix”). The complaint further alleges that an industry in the United States exists as required by subsection (a)(2) of section 337.

On March 22, 2007, respondent Hynix filed a joint motion to terminate the investigation on the basis of a settlement agreement. The Commission Investigative Attorney filed a response in support of the motion on March 30, 2007.

The ALJ issued the subject ID on April 3, 2007, granting the joint motion for termination. No party petitioned for review of the ID pursuant to 19 CFR 210.43(a), and the Commission found no basis for ordering a review on its own initiative pursuant to 19 CFR 210.44. Accordingly, the Commission has determined not to review the ID.

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 sections 210.21(a)(2), (b) and 210.42(h)(3) of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure.

Issued: April 16, 2007.

By order of the Commission.

Marilyn R. Abbott,

Secretary to the Commission.
