UNITED STATES INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. Before The Honorable Theodore R. Essex Administrative Law Judge

In the Matter of UNITED STATES INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. Before The Honorable Theodore R. Essex Administrative Law Judge CERTAIN HANDHELD ELECTRONIC COMPUTING DEVICES, RELATED SOFTWARE, AND COMPONENTS THEREOF Investigation No. 337-TA-769 RESPONDENTS BARNES & NOBLE, INC S AND BARNESANDNOBLE.COM LLC S MOTION TO APPROVE REQUEST FOR INTERNATIONAL JUDICIAL ASSISTANCE IN PROCURING EVIDENCE FROM NOKIA CORPORATION AND TO SHORTEN COMPLAINANT MICROSOFT CORPORATION S AND THE STAFF S TIME TO RESPOND Respondents Barnes & Noble, Inc. and barnesandnoble.com llc (collectively Barnes & Noble ) move the Commission to approve a request for international judicial assistance in procuring evidence from Nokia Corporation ( Nokia ) in Finland. Specifically, Barnes & Noble respectfully requests that a Letter of Request for International Judicial Assistance ( Letter of Request ) be signed and sealed by the Administrative Law Judge and sent to the central authority of the Republic of Finland ( Finland ) in accordance with the Hague Convention on the Taking of Evidence in Civil or Commercial Matters, Mar. 18, 1970, 23 U.S.T. 2555, 847 U.N.T.S. 231 ( Hague Convention ). Pursuant to Commission Order No. 2, 3.7, Barnes & Noble also respectfully requests that the Commission shorten the time in which complainant Microsoft Corporation ( Microsoft ) and the Office of Unfair Import Investigations (the Staff ) may respond to this motion to three days.

As part of Barnes & Noble s affirmative defense of patent misuse, Barnes & Noble has alleged that Microsoft is improperly expanding the scope of its patents in an attempt to dominate mobile operating systems such as Android that threaten Microsoft s monopoly in PC operating systems. On information and belief, to further that strategy, Microsoft entered into partnership agreements with Nokia, whereby one of the stated motivations for this partnership was to combine the parties respective patent portfolios and to coordinate their offensive use of patents to drive out open source operating systems, including Android specifically, that threaten Microsoft s monopoly. Microsoft and Nokia also recently entered into an agreement with a patent licensing company, MOSAID Technologies, Inc. ( MOSAID ), transferring approximately 2,000 Nokia patents to MOSAID in exchange for MOSAID s efforts to license those patents (or sue those that do not take a license) and promise to pay approximately two-thirds of any royalties back to Microsoft and Nokia. Such coordination between competitors Microsoft and Nokia raises serious issues under the Sherman Act and is further evidence of Microsoft s anticompetitive efforts to dominate Android. On October 20, 2011, the Commission granted Barnes & Noble s application for issuance of a subpoena duces tecum and subpoena ad testificandum requiring Nokia s United States subsidiary (Nokia Inc.) to produce documents and submit to a corporate deposition about the topics described in the Letter of Request, among others. In e-mails and conversations with Barnes & Noble s counsel on and around November 3, 2011, Nokia Inc. s counsel stated that at least a portion of the documents Barnes & Noble seeks are likely located at Nokia Corp. in Finland, and that Nokia Corp. 2

would not voluntarily produce the requested documents but rather must be served with a separate international subpoena. It has also been suggested that the agreements with Microsoft and MOSAID were negotiated by the Nokia parent in Finland and hence the knowledgeable deponents are likely to be located in Finland. Indeed, on November 7, 2011, Nokia Inc. moved to quash Barnes & Noble s subpoenas, arguing, in part, that the topics and requests of the subpoenas that relate to Microsoft or MOSAID are targeted at information that is more likely in the possession, custody or control of Nokia Corporation. Hence, this application for international judicial assistance is required. Barnes & Noble has disclosed to Microsoft, other Respondents and the Staff its intention to file the present motion at least two business days prior to filing the motion. The other Respondents do not oppose Barnes & Noble s motion. Respectfully Submitted, Dated: November 14, 2011 /s/ Stuart W. Gold Stephen S. Madsen Peter T.

In the Matter of UNITED STATES INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. Before The Honorable Theodore R. Essex Administrative Law Judge CERTAIN HANDHELD ELECTRONIC COMPUTING DEVICES, RELATED SOFTWARE, AND COMPONENTS THEREOF Investigation No. 337-TA-769 RESPONDENTS BARNES & NOBLE, INC S AND BARNESANDNOBLE.COM LLC S MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF MOTION TO APPROVE REQUEST FOR INTERNATIONAL JUDICIAL ASSISTANCE IN PROCURING EVIDENCE FROM NOKIA CORPORATION AND TO SHORTEN COMPLAINANT MICROSOFT CORPORATION S AND THE STAFF S TIME TO RESPOND Respondents Barnes & Noble, Inc. and barnesandnoble.com llc (collectively Barnes & Noble ) move the Commission to approve a request for international judicial assistance in procuring evidence from Nokia Corporation ( Nokia ). Specifically, Barnes & Noble respectfully requests that the Letter of Request for International Judicial Assistance ( Letter of Request ), attached hereto at Appendix 1, be signed and sealed by the Administrative Law Judge and sent to the central authority of the Republic of Finland ( Finland ) in accordance with the Hague Convention on the Taking of Evidence in Civil or Commercial Matters, Mar. 18, 1970, 23 U.S.T. 2555, 847 U.N.T.S. 231 ( Hague Convention ). 1 Pursuant to Commission Order No. 2, 3.7, Barnes & Noble also respectfully requests that the Commission shorten the time in which complainant 1 A certified translation into Finnish is attached hereto as Appendix 2.

Microsoft Corporation ( Microsoft ) and the Office of Unfair Import Investigations (the Staff ) may respond to this motion to three days. Pursuant to Commission Order No. 2, 3.2, Barnes & Noble hereby certifies that, prior to filing this motion, it contacted all parties on November 4, 2011, regarding its intention to seek approval of this request for international judicial assistance. 2 BACKGROUND In response to Microsoft s allegation that Barnes & Noble s Nook and Nook Color e-book reader products infringe certain Microsoft patents, Barnes & Noble has raised the affirmative defense of patent misuse. As part of that affirmative defense, Barnes & Noble has alleged that Microsoft is improperly expanding the scope of its patents in an attempt to dominate mobile operating systems such as Android that threaten Microsoft s monopoly in PC operating systems. To further that strategy, Microsoft entered into partnership agreements with Nokia, whereby, among other things, Nokia agreed to replace its Symbian operating system with Microsoft s Windows Phone 7 as its principal smartphone strategy. In addition to increasing Microsoft s market share in the worldwide mobile operating system market, one of the stated motivations for this partnership was to combine the parties respective patent portfolios and to coordinate their offensive use of patents to drive out open source operating systems, including Android specifically, that threaten Microsoft s monopoly. See, e.g., Conversations by Nokia: Q&A videos, break down, http://www.conversations.nokia.com/2011/02/22/qa-videos-break-down (last visited 2 The other Respondents in this litigation have no objection to this motion. 2

Nov. 10, 2011). 3 Microsoft and Nokia also recently entered into an agreement with a patent licensing company, MOSAID Technologies, Inc. ( MOSAID ), transferring approximately 2,000 Nokia patents to MOSAID in exchange for MOSAID s efforts to license those patents (or sue those that do not take a license) and promise to pay approximately two-thirds of any royalties back to Microsoft and Nokia. The foregoing coordination between competitors Microsoft and Nokia raises serious issues under the Sherman Act and is further evidence of Microsoft s anticompetitive efforts to dominate Android. 4 To develop these facts in greater detail and acquire admissible evidence tending to show Microsoft s anticompetitive conduct, Barnes & Noble seeks documents and testimony about Nokia and Microsoft s business partnerships, the agreement to coordinate their use of their combined patent portfolio and subsequent agreement with MOSAID to share revenues from a group of patents originating from Nokia, the connection between Microsoft s demand that Barnes & Noble enter into a licensing agreement in order to continue to use Android and Microsoft s coordinated patent 3 On February 13, 2011, two days after Nokia and Microsoft announced their strategic agreement, Stephen Elop, Nokia s CEO, engaged in a videotaped question and answer session after delivering his keynote address at the Mobile World Congress. In response to a question about Nokia s pending litigation against Apple s ios, Mr. Elop stated that: It is the case, and was absolutely a topic of discussion with Microsoft, that Microsoft plus Nokia, has a remarkably strong intellectual property portfolio. That is something we will use appropriately within the context of our ecosystem, which means both defending the ecosystem from outside attacks, as well as appropriately ensuring that the value that we ve created through our patents are properly collected from other people who may choose to take advantage of that technology.

Co., 374 U.S. 174 (1963) (holding that a horizontal offensive patent agreement violated the Sherman Act). 3

strategy with Nokia, the companies analysis of their combined shares of the mobile operating system and mobile device markets and plans to increase those shares, and their strategy for addressing the threat that Android poses to their business models. Barnes & Noble has already made efforts to obtain this discovery without burdening the judicial authorities of other jurisdictions. On October 20, 2011, the Commission granted Barnes & Noble s application for issuance of a subpoena duces tecum and subpoena ad testificandum requiring Nokia s United States subsidiary (Nokia Inc.) to produce documents and submit to a corporate deposition about the topics described in the Letter of Request, among others. In e-mails and conversations with Barnes & Noble s counsel on and around November 3, 2011, Nokia Inc. s counsel stated that at least a portion of the documents Barnes & Noble seeks, specifically documents relating to the negotiations preceding the Nokia and Microsoft agreements, are likely located at Nokia Corp. in Finland, and that Nokia Corp. must be served with a separate international subpoena. (See Declaration of Stuart W. Gold, dated 11/14/11, Exh. A.) It has also been suggested that the agreements with Microsoft and MOSAID were negotiated by the Nokia parent in Finland and hence the knowledgeable deponent(s) are likely to be located in Finland. Indeed, on November 7, 2011, Nokia Inc. moved to quash Barnes & Noble s subpoenas, arguing, in part, that the topics and requests of the subpoenas that relate to Microsoft or MOSAID are targeted at information that is more likely in the possession, custody or control of Nokia Corporation. (Mot. to Limit or Quash Barnes & Noble, Inc. and barnesandnoble.com s Subpoena Duces Tecum and Ad Testificandum to Third Party Nokia Inc., filed November 7, 2011, at 3). Similarly, Nokia Inc. argues that the deposition subjects are better addressed to Nokia 4

Corp. s CEO and others in Finland. 5 Id. Hence, this application for international judicial assistance is required. ARGUMENT I. THE COMMISSION MAY ISSUE THE LETTER OF REQUEST UNDER THE HAGUE CONVENTION. The Hague Convention provides: In civil or commercial matters a judicial authority of a Contracting State may, in accordance with the provisions of the law of that State, request the competent authority of another Contracting State, by means of a Letter of Request, to obtain evidence, or to perform some other judicial act. Hague Convention, Art. 1. Both the United States and Finland are Contracting States to the Hague Convention. Finland ratified the Hague Convention on April 7, 1976. See Hague Conf. on Private Int l Law, Status table, http://www.hcch.net/index_en.php? act=conventions.status&cid=82 (last updated May 12, 2011). Likewise, the Commission is a proper judicial authority for purposes of requesting international judicial assistance, as recognized by administrative law judges in several Section 337 investigations. See Certain Home Vacuum Packaging Machs., Inv. No. 337-TA-496, Order No. 39, 2004 ITC Lexis 39 (U.S.I.T.C. Jan. 12, 2004), upheld with amendment, Commission Order (Mar. 24, 2004) (letter of request granted by the administrative law judge under Hague Convention); Certain Network Interface Cards and Access Points for Use in Direct 5 Finnish law requires that the proposed deponents be identified. We have identified the following individuals to be deposed as most likely to have the relevant information: Stephen Elop, Chief Executive Officer and President of Nokia Corp.; Kai Öistämö, Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer of Nokia Corp. (lead negotiator on Microsoft and Nokia s Windows Phone deal); Jukka Nihtilä, Head of Business Development, IPR, of Nokia Corp. (lead negotiator on Nokia and Microsoft s deal with MOSAID); Mary T. McDowell, Executive Vice President in charge of Nokia s Mobile Phones Unit; and Jaakko Kaskinen, Senior Manager, Nokia M&A. Mr. Kaskinen might be a full- or part-time resident of the United States, and Barnes & Noble will also attempt to obtain his testimony in the United States. 5

Sep. 17, 2001) (letter of request signed and sealed by administrative law judge pursuant to Hague Convention); Certain Processes for the Manufacture of Skinless Sausage Casings and Resulting Prod., Inv. No. 337-TA-148/169, Order No. C-5, 1984 WL 273883 (U.S.I.T.C. Jan. 20, 1984) (international judicial assistance granted under Hague Convention); see also Certain Doxorubicin and Preparations Containing Same, Inv. No. 337-TA-300, Order No. 7, 1989 WL 608986 (U.S.I.T.C. Aug. 23, 1989) (letter of request granted by administrative law judge so that applicant may proceed through diplomatic channels). II. THE LETTER OF REQUEST IS WARRANTED BECAUSE THE EVIDENCE TO BE OBTAINED FROM NOKIA BEARS DIRECTLY ON BARNES & NOBLE S PATENT MISUSE DEFENSE, IS NARROWLY TAILORED AND IS UNOBTAINABLE BY OTHER MEANS. The Commission should issue the Letter of Request sought by Barnes & Noble for several reasons. First, the deposition testimony and documents requested are highly relevant to Barnes & Noble s patent misuse affirmative defense. As discussed above, Microsoft entered into strategic partnerships with Nokia, including a horizontal agreement to assert patents offensively. Those partnerships further Microsoft s strategy of using patents to impair the growth and development of mobile operating systems that pose a threat to its monopoly in PC operating systems. Indeed, based on public statements by Nokia s CEO, it appears that Microsoft and Nokia have partnered to wield the companies remarkably strong intellectual property portfolio to stifle the Android threat. Conversations by Nokia: Q&A videos, break down, http://www.conversations.nokia.com/2011/02/22/qa-videos-break-down (last visited Nov. 10, 2011). Microsoft and Nokia s September 2011 agreement with MOSAID further facilitated that strategy. MOSAID acquired and agreed to license the patents that originated with Nokia. 6

MOSAID agreed to give Microsoft and Nokia two-thirds of any licensing revenue it generates. Microsoft s strategy in partnering with Nokia and MOSAID to license the patents or sue those that do not take a license raises Android distributors costs, pressuring those device makers into switching their development efforts from Android to Windows Phone 7 devices. Such an offensive use of these patents is a naked restraint of trade, which suppresses competition. The evidence sought will tend to prove that Microsoft is using patents, assuming they are even valid, that are trivial with respect to Android-based devices (as well as other open source operating devices) in a coordinated campaign to restrict competition and is expanding that strategy by linking with Nokia and MOSAID. Thus, Barnes & Noble anticipates that the requested testimony and documents will be highly material to the issue of patent misuse. Second, Barnes & Noble s Letter of Request is narrowly tailored to seek information that will provide evidence of the details and reason for the Nokia-Microsoft partnership and subsequent arrangement with MOSAID, including information about the companies agreement to use their combined patent portfolio, the connection between that agreement and Microsoft s demand that Barnes & Noble pay a licensing fee in order to continue to use the open source Android operating system, and the companies analyses of the threat Android poses to their business models. Consistent with Finland s Declaration to the Hague Convention stating that Finland will not execute letters of request for broad pre-trial discovery, Barnes & Noble s Letter of Request seeks only particular documents and does not request that Nokia disclose or produce other relevant documents it may have in its possession or control. 6 6 See Republic of Finland, Declaration 5 to Hague Convention, http://www.hcch.net /index_en.php?act=status.comment&csid=500&disp=resdn (last visited Nov. 10, 2011). 7

Third, Barnes & Noble is unable to obtain that information by any other means. The Nokia entity that entered into the relevant agreements with Microsoft is in Finland. As indicated above (pp. 4-5), it appears highly unlikely that Barnes & Noble s attempts to obtain relevant information from Nokia s United States subsidiary will satisfy its evidentiary needs. Moreover, with a December discovery end-date and a hearing scheduled for February 6, 2012, there is not time to first complete discovery of Nokia s United States subsidiary (and complete the review of Microsoft documents) before making this application. III. A SHORTENED TIME TO RESPOND TO THIS MOTION IS NECESSARY GIVEN THE TIMEFRAME FOR DISCOVERY AND THE FEBRUARY 6, 2012 HEARING DATE. Pursuant to Commission Order No. 2, 3.7, Barnes & Noble respectfully requests that the Commission shorten the time in which complainant Microsoft and the Staff may respond to this motion to three days. A shortened response time is necessary given the relatively short timeframe for discovery and the upcoming hearing in this investigation, as well as the significant amount of time involved in obtaining international judicial assistance. CONCLUSION For the reasons set forth above, Barnes & Noble respectfully requests that the Commission issue the Letter of Request. Barnes & Noble further respectfully requests that the Commission shorten the time to respond to this motion to three days. Further, Barnes & Noble will comply with procedures required under Finnish law for the taking of depositions. 8

7. Nature of the proceedings and summary of the facts: Washington, D.C. 20436 The nature of the proceedings for which the evidence is requested is a civil patent infringement action based upon an amended verified complaint filed by Microsoft Corporation ( Microsoft ) on April 8, 2011. The complaint alleges that Barnes & Noble, Inc., barnesandnoble.com llc, Foxconn Electronics, Inc., Foxconn Precision Component (Shen Zhen) Co. Ltd., Foxconn International Holdings Ltd. and Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd. and Inventec Corporation ( Respondents ) import, sell for importation and/or sell within the United States after importation certain handheld electronic computing devices, related software and components thereof that allegedly infringe U.S. Patent No. 5,778,372, U.S. Patent No. 5,889,522, U.S. Patent No. 6,339,780, U.S. Patent No. 6,891,551 and U.S. Patent No. 6,957,233. Microsoft seeks an exclusion order barring importation of the allegedly infringing devices. The United States International Trade Commission (the Commission ) under Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1337), as amended, instituted proceedings based on Microsoft s complaint and subsequently published notice of those proceedings in The Federal Register. Upon institution, the proceeding was assigned to Administrative Law Judge Theodore R. Essex to preside over pretrial matters, conduct a trial and issue an initial determination on the merits of the investigation. The initial determination of Judge Essex is subject to possible review by the Commission, with a right of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and further appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. Several defenses have been raised against Microsoft s allegations of patent infringement, including the defenses of patent misuse, non-infringement, invalidity of the patents, unenforceability of the patents, public interest and lack of domestic industry. The patent misuse defense asserted by Respondents Barnes & Noble, Inc. and barnesandnoble.com llc requires information about Microsoft s efforts to use its licensing practices to broaden improperly the scope of its patents with anticompetitive effect. 8. Evidence to be obtained and It is respectfully requested that the executing judicial A-6

Purpose of the evidence: The purpose of the testimony and documents sought is to obtain relevant evidence to be used at trial to defend against the allegations made in Microsoft s complaint. Specifically, Barnes & Noble seeks the evidence requested in order to prove that Microsoft is improperly expanding the scope of its patents in an attempt to dominate mobile operating systems such as Android that threaten Microsoft s monopoly in PC operating systems. Such conduct constitutes patent misuse, which renders the patents at issue unenforceable. The evidence from Nokia is highly relevant because Microsoft recently entered into partnership agreements with Nokia whereby, among other things, Nokia agreed to replace its Symbian operating system with Microsoft s Windows Phone 7 as its principal smartphone strategy. In addition to increasing Microsoft s market share in the worldwide mobile operating system market, one of the publicly stated motivations for this partnership was to combine the parties respective patent portfolios and to coordinate their offensive use of the patents to drive out open source operating systems, including Android specifically, that threaten Microsoft s monopoly. Microsoft and Nokia also recently entered into an agreement with a patent licensing company, MOSAID, transferring approximately 2,000 Nokia patents to MOSAID in exchange for MOSAID s efforts to license those patents (or sue those that do not take a license) and promise to pay approximately two-thirds of any royalties back to Microsoft and Nokia.

Barnes & Noble seeks the evidence requested to prove that Microsoft is using patents, assuming they are even valid, that are trivial with respect to Android based devices (as well as other open source operating devices) in a coordinated campaign to restrict competition and is expanding that strategy by linking with Nokia and MOSAID in violation of the U.S. antitrust laws and constituting patent misuse. Thus, Barnes & Noble anticipates that the requested testimony and documents will be highly material to the issue of patent misuse. 9. Identity and address of any person to be examined: 10. Questions to be put to the persons to be examined or statement of the subject matter about which they are to be examined: Nokia Corp. s U.S. subsidiary has represented to Barnes & Noble and to the Commission that the evidence sought is more likely in the possession, custody or control of Nokia Corporation, and that the testimony subjects should be addressed to Nokia Corp. s CEO, Stephen Elop, and others in Finland. Nokia Inc. has suggested that the agreements with Microsoft and MOSAID were negotiated by Nokia Corp. in Finland and hence the knowledgeable witness(es) and responsive documents are likely to be located in Finland. Since these constitute major agreements and strategies for Nokia and Microsoft, it is highly likely that they performed detailed analyses regarding these agreements. Thus, Barnes & Noble believes that the evidence requested exists and is in the possession of Nokia Corp. Stephen Elop Kai Öistämö Mary T.
