Rodeen,

For Wednesday’s Meet and Confer at 6 pm Central.

It appears we also need to meet and confer about our motion to strike the IC counter claim and affirmative defense. It’s attached if

your client decides it wants Symbology to withdraw it, and KDP just files an amended Answer/Counterclaims/Defenses to remove IC

until there is more evidence to meet the pleading standard.

Okay, to accommodate you guys we will make that work.

Just give me a call at 415.568.0553. If your client wants to say plain and ordinary

meaning applies, we would like to hold you to that notwithstanding your client wanting

to limit it to just Section 101 purposes. We haven’t completed our review but will have

more than just the 4 claims included from each patent (one from each) in our final

infringement contentions.

Counsel,

Judge Gilstrap’s Standing Order (attached) requires the

parties to meet and confer regarding whether claim

construction is necessary in deciding subject-matter eligibility

under § 101, and for the movant to include a certification

regarding same when filing a motion to dismiss under § 101.

We inadvertently missed this step before filing KDP’s motion

to dismiss.

If Symbology agrees, we can perform this meet and confer

and file the certification with the Court as soon as possible.

Otherwise, KDP will file a renewed motion to dismiss with the

proper certification after the meet and confer. Either way,

please provide your availability for some time today or

tomorrow for the lead counsel for both sides to meet and

confer per the Standing Order.

Thanks,

Rodeen
