10. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan The case of Apple v. Samsung is the leading case Decision of February 28, 2013 by the Tokyo District Court (Otaka Court) DR action by Apple claiming its iPhones and iPads do not infringe Samsung's JP4642898 "Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving packet data" Court found some of the goods to be in the technical scope of the invention but denied Samsung's rights to recover damages 10

11. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan Court said that Samsung's attempt to recover damages from Apple would be an "abuse of right" under the following circumstances; –The original application was filed in Korea on May 4, 2005 –Samsung participated in the working group of the 3GPP and made a proposal to introduce the invented technology in May 2005 –Samsung declared on August 7, 2007 that the patent in question is essential to the UMTS (3GPP) standard and that it will license the patent under FRAND terms –Samsung filed for preliminary injunction against Apple on April 21, 2011 and the case is still pending 11

12. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan –Samsung made a offer of a license under the patent specifying royalty rate on July 25, 2011 but did not show why they came up with such royalty rate –Apple argued in its letter of August 18, 2011 that Samsung's royalty rate could not exceed 0.275% and asked Samsung to disclose royalty rates with other licensees –Samsung requested Apple to give them a counter-offer on January 31, 2012 but again did not give any reasons why they came to the proposed royalty rate –Apple made a counter-offer specifying royalty rate in its letter of March 4, 2012 12

13. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan –Samsung replied on April 18, 2012 saying that the proposed royalty rate by Apple is too low and is not a proposal for a license under FRAND terms –Apple made an offer on September 7, 2012 of a cross- license between Apple and Samsung on all smart phones and tablets specifying royalties 13

14. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan The Court, saying that Apple and Samsung have obligations to negotiate a license in good faith, concluded that Samsung's attempt to recover damages will be an abuse of right under current circumstances because; –Samsung did not show the reasons for the proposed royalty rate –Samsung did not disclose license agreements with other licensees –Samsung did not make a counter-offer against license terms proposed by Apple 14

15. www.hoganlovells.com FRAND defense in Japan –Samsung is still asking for preliminary injunction against Apple's products –Samsung disclosed its patent after 2 years from when the invented technology was adopted in the 3GPP standard 15
