Shulin, New Taipei City\u2013 <\/strong>Dec 28, 2018<\/strong> \u2013 In response to recent press releases by Seoul Semiconductor (SSC) and mass media focus on the patent lawsuits related to Everlight vs. SSC, Everlight hereby formally and solemnly declares and clarifies: We respect the judgments rendered by the courts. \u00a0However, the patent lawsuits are still in progress and the current judgements are not final and irrevocable. Here at Everlight, we are firmly confident that the final and irrevocable court judgments will be in favor of Everlight. Everlight reasserts that it will not rule out litigation against misrepresented press releases, to safeguard and protect fair, just, righteous and public press release values.\n\nAs a counterattack against SSC, Everlight has launched litigations in Germany and China for patent invalidations and the litigations are currently proceeding. Everlight firmly believes that the patent invalidations are well grounded and SSC patents will eventually be ruled invalid.\n\nEverlight reaffirms its inherent and consistent stand: Everlight will safeguard and protect the interests of all its clients and shareholders. For infringements of Everlight patents, Everlight will definitely and continually resort to patent lawsuits, absolutely without any show of leniency. For more details about the progress of the patent lawsuits Everlight vs. Seoul Semiconductor (SSC), please refer to the Table below:\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Countries<\/strong><\/td>\nCourts <\/strong><\/td>\nEverlight’s declarations & clarifications<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Germany<\/strong><\/td>\nMannheim Court <\/strong><\/td>\nOn May 4, 2017 and July 3, 2017. Everlight launched patent lawsuits with Mannheim District Court Germany, accusing SSC and its distributor NEUM\u00dcLLER (NEUM\u00dcLLER Elektronik GmbH) of having infringed upon Everlight’s know-how technology patent. <\/strong>\n\nEverlight stresses that the patent lawsuit is still in progress and the current judgment is not final and irrevocable. Everlight is entitled to appeal and firmly believes that the final judgment will be in favor of Everlight. <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Germany<\/strong><\/td>\nD\u00fcsseldorf Court<\/strong><\/td>\nSSC lodged a patent lawsuit with the D\u00fcsseldorf Court, Germany on March 31, 2017, accusing Mouser of having three UVA products infringing upon an SSC client patent. <\/strong>\n\nEverlight stresses that the judgment was confined to Mouser and the specific UVA products and would have no impact upon other clients and other products at all. That lawsuit is still in progress, not final. It is still appealable. <\/strong>\n\nAs a counterattack against SSC, Everlight has launched litigations in Germany and China for patent invalidations and the litigations are currently proceeding. Everlight firmly believes that the patent invalidations are well grounded and SSC patents will eventually be ruled invalid. <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
S. Korea<\/strong><\/td>\nPatent court <\/strong><\/td>\nOn April 5, 2018, Everlight received an award rendered by the Korea Intellectual Property Office, officially verifying that Everlight Korea Patent KR768539 is valid and officially revoking SSC petition for patent invalidation. <\/strong>\n\nAiming at the court judgment, Everlight clarifies that amidst the total of 87 claims disclosed in the patent, only three of 87 claims were invalidated. That invalidation does not in any way affect the overall patent value and validity. Litigation is still in progress, not final, and is still appealable. <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
United Kingdom<\/strong><\/td>\nPatent court <\/strong><\/td>\nThe European Union (EU) patents include German and United Kingdom patents. Where a patent is under a territorial system, the patent infringement lawsuit and patent validity in Germany remain unaffected. <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
