DECLARATION OF JAMES R. TROUPIS
I, James R. Troupis, declare as follows:
l. I am a partner at Michael Best & Friedrich LLP. I make this declaration in
support of Plaintiff AU Optronics Corporation’s Motion to Compel LG.Philips LCD America to
Respond to Requests for Production and Interrogatories and for Other Relief
2. On April 10 and I2, 2007, counsel for AU Optronics Corporation ("AUO") and
counsel for LG.Philips LCD America ("LPLA") and LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. ("LPL")
participated in telephonic conferences pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(i)
3. During the April 10, 2007, telephone conference, AUO counsel requested that
LPLA provide jurisdictional discovery as part of its initial disclosures.
I 4. AUO’s counsel believed, based on the April 10, 2007 telephone conference, that
LPLA’s counsel either did not agree that it would provide documents or information conceming
jurisdiction as an initial disclosure, or at best LPLA’s counsel left the matter ofjurisdictional
disclosures unresolved.
