INTRODUCTION
Sun Optics, Inc. ("Sun Optics") filed the present Motion for Leave to File

Evidence Arising after Oral Arguments in Support of Plaintiff's Motions for Preliminary Injunction ("Motion to Supplement") to supplement the record with new evidence pertinent to Sun Optics's two motions to preliminarily enjoin FGX International Inc. ("FGX") from continuing to infringe Sun Optics's U.S. Patent Nos. D525,427, D527,180 and 7,188,739 (the "'427 patent," "'180 patent" and "'739 patent" respectively).' The new evidence consists of 1) pages from the optical trade magazine Vision Monday depicting competing advertisements of FGX's infringing products and Sun Optics's patented products, and 2) a photograph of a new eyeglass display accused of infringing the '739 patent that FGX has recently released in CVS stores. This new evidence contradicts representations FGX made to this Court in opposing Sun Optics's motions for preliminary injunction that 1) FGX's accused products do not compete with Sun Optics's patented products, and 2) that FGX did not use accused products to preclude Sun Optics from obtaining an account with CVS. FGX's Opposition to Plaintiff's Motion to Supplement ("Opposition") argues that the Court should not consider this new evidence because 1) it is not relevant, and 2) it does not show that Sun Optics is suffering irreparable harm. Absent from these arguments, however, is any substantive analysis or statement of fact to support these positions. Instead of providing the Court with facts or evidence, FGX sets up a series of straw-men that it subsequently attacks. A thoughtful analysis of the facts and arguments of the parties reveals that the new evidence proffered by Sun Optics is both relevant and 1 Despite FGX's allegations to the contrary, Sun Optics complied with Rule 7.1.1. Although Sun Optics did not provide copies of the new evidence to Defendant's counsel, this is not required by the Rule 7.1.1. The precise nature of the new evidence was explained to counsel for FGX. Despite calling counsel for FGX during business hours on Thursday, July 5, counsel for FGX indicated that he would not be able to meet with his client until Monday July 9. There is not federal holiday between July 5 and July 9. In light of the Court's indication at the hearing on May 18 that the Court would "do [its] best to attend to [the motions for preliminary injunction] promptly," [5/18/07 Transcript, at 90:4,] counsel for Sun Optics felt it necessary to get this new relevant evidence before the Court as quickly as possible.

persuasive evidence of the irreparable harm Sun Optics continues to incur from FGX's ever-expanding infringing activities. II. ARGUMENT A. The Advertisements in Vision Monday Are Relevant I. FGX's Advertisement in Vision Monday Is Relevant Because It Advertises Accused Products

FGX argues that its advertisement in Vision Monday is not relevant because the "advertising does not show the design accused of infringing Plaintiff's design patents -- albeit, a small portion of half an eyeglass case is shown in the lower right-hand corner of the ad. Since no cover is present at all, there is no basis to argue that the pictured halfcase infringes Plaintiff's design patents." [Opposition, at p.4.] However, FGX's silence on several points is more informative than these assertions. First, FGX does not argue that the "portion of half an eyeglass case" shown in the advertisement is not of the very design accused of infringing the Sun Optics's design patents. 2 Second, FGX does not acknowledge that a portion of the clear top half of the accused designs is depicted in the upper left-hand corner of the advertisement. Thus, the advertisement depicts a portion of the bottom half of a case, and a portion of the top half of a case, both of which are perfect matches to the cases accused of infringing Sun Optics's design patents. A comparison of the accused products with these portions of the case depicted in the advertisement confirms that the case advertised is FGX's product accused of infringing Sun Optics's design patents. If this case is in fact not of the accused products, one can not help but to ask 1) why did FGX not affirmatively state in Mr. Taylor's declaration (submitted in support of its Opposition) that the eyeglass case depicted in the

2 Given the similarities between the designs of the '180 and '427 patents, it is unclear whether the particular case depicted in the advertisement is the "large" design of the '427 patent, or the "small" design of the '180 patent. However, precisely which of the two designs the case infringes is irrelevant for purposes of deciding the present motion or the motions for preliminary injunction because both designs have been asserted against FGX.

advertisement is not of the accused products, or 2) submit a physical specimen of the case depicted in its Vision Monday advertisement as it did with the eyeglass case used in the CVS display? Instead of affirmatively stating that the case in the advertisement is not of the accused products, FGX side-stepped the issue by stating that "other Private Eyes eyeglass cases (and the Private Eyes frames featured in the advertisement) are not accused." [Opposition, at p. 4 (emphasis added).] While "other" Private Eyes case may not be at issue in this case, the case depicted in the advertisement clearly is at issue in this case. FGX's reference to "frames" is simply a red herring. No frames have been accused as infringing in the present litigation. Although the advertisement does not depict the entire case, the clear inference is that the case depicted in FGX's Vision Monday advertisement and the products being promoted therein are the accused designs and products. Any evidence to rebut this inference would be in FGX's possession or control. FGX, however, has offered the Court no evidence rebut this inference, relying instead on mere attorney argument. Consequently, FGX's silence merely strengthens the inference that FGX's advertisement in Vision Monday is for the designs and products accused of infringing Sun Optics's patents. 2. Sun Optics's Advertisement in Vision Monday Is Relevant Because It Is for Its Patented Products

FGX argues in its Opposition that Sun Optics's advertisement in Vision Monday is not relevant because 1) "Plaintiff conspicuously failed to allege that the products in its advertising were relevant to any of the patents in suit[,]" and 2) "Plaintiff offers no evidence that its advertising is directed to eye care professionals." [Opposition, at p. 5.] FGX's assertion is incorrect on both accounts. First, Sun Optics's advertisement speaks for itself as to which patent the products in the advertisement pertain. The bottom right-hand corner the advertisement depicts Sun Optics's patented system. Directly below that picture the advertisement states, "Patent

3

No. 7,188,739 Bl." There can be no genuine dispute that Sun Optics's advertisement is for its merchandising system patented by the '739 patent at issue in this case. Second, the fact that Sun Optics's advertisement appears in Vision Monday is evidence that the advertisement is "directed to eye care professionals." As Sun Optics stated in its Notice of Evidence Arising after Oral Arguments in Support of Plaintiffs Motions for Preliminary Injunction ("Notice of New Evidence"), Vision Monday is "an optical trade journal." [Id. at p. 1.] FGX does not dispute that Vision Monday is an optical trade journal. The corollary to FGX's argument that "Plaintiff offers no evidence that its advertising is directed to eye care professionals" is that FGX argues that Sun Optics placed its advertisement in an optical trade journal to direct the advertisement to someone other than eye care professionals. FGX's argument is simply untenable. Sun Optics's advertisement in Vision Monday is directed to eye care professionals as evidence by the fact that it appears in Vision Monday, an optical trade journal indisputably written for and circulated to eye care professionals. 3. The Advertisements in Vision Monday Are Relevant Because They Contradict FGX's Previous Representations to the Court

As set forth in Sun Optics's Notice of New Evidence, FGX has opposed Sun Optics's motions for preliminary injunction arguing, inter alia, that FGX's accused products do not compete with Sun Optics's patented products. [Notice of New Evidence, at pp. 1-2.] FGX does not dispute that it has made this argument to the Court. The Vision Monday advertisements are for the accused products and patented products respectively, and are directed to the same audience ­ eye care professionals. Contrary to FGX's previous representations to the Court, FGX's accused products and Sun Optics's patented products compete head-to-head in the optical market as evidenced by the advertisements in Vision Monday.

B.

The Photograph of FGX's Reading Glass Display in CVS Are Relevant Because These Products Infringe the '739 Patent

FGX argues that the photograph of FGX's reading glass display in CVS is not relevant because "Plaintiff's motion papers contain no allegation that the Foster Grant eyeglass case in Exhibit B infringe any of the three patents-in-suit, and any such allegation would be frivolous." [Opposition, at p. 6 n.9.] To the contrary, Sun Optics states in its Reply brief in support of its motion for a preliminary injunction based on the '739 patent: "In other words, that FGX does not sell its Private Eyes brand of glasses to CVS is both expected and irrelevant to whether FGX is selling one of its other brands of reading glasses to CVS in a manner that infringes the '739 patent." [D.I. 41, Plaintiff's Reply Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for Preliminary Injunction, at p. 16 (emphasis in the original).] The specifics of FGX's display in CVS are not addressed in Sun Optics's motion papers because the display is after arising evidence. FGX does not dispute that the display was not actually placed in the CVS stores until after the briefing and oral arguments on the motions for preliminary injunctions. Hence the need for the present motion to provide the Court with supplemental evidence arising after the hearing. Although FGX argues that any allegation that its CVS display infringes the '739 patent would be "frivolous," FGX does not identify any element of the claims of the '739 patent that are not present in its CVS display. In light of FGX's argument that its CVS display does not infringe Sun Optics's '739 patent, the following is a chart identifying every element of claim 1 of the '739 patent in FGX's CVS display as depicted in Exhibit B to the Notice of New Evidence:

As demonstrated above, FGX's reading glass display in CVS infringes at least claim 1 of the '739 patent. Consequently, this display is at issue in this case. Further, this display would fall within the scope of the preliminary injunction Sun Optics has requested from the Court. Sun Optics has asked the Court to preliminary enjoin FGX 6

from making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing "any Private Eyes or Sun Readers reading glasses marketed in cases that allow a portion of the reading glasses to be viewed through the cases and displayed in a substantially vertical position, or any colorable imitation thereof[.]" [D.I. 25, Proposed Order Granting Plaintiffs Motion for Preliminary Injunction, at pp. 1-2.] FGX's CVS display is at least a "colorable imitation" under the Proposed Order because it indisputably uses "cases that allow a portion of the reading glasses to be viewed through the cases and displayed in a substantially vertical position." Thus, FGX's display in CVS has been accused of infringing the '739 patent, the CVS display falls within the scope of relief requested by Sun Optics in its motion papers, and the photographs of the CVS display are relevant to Sun Optics's motion for preliminary injunction based on the '739 patent. C. The Vision Monday Advertisements and Photograph of FGX's Reading Glass Display in CVS Are Evidence of Irreparable Harm

FGX's final argument is that the new evidence submitted by Sun Optics does not show irreparable harm. Again, FGX is simply wrong. FGX admits in its Opposition that it has had a relationship with CVS dating back prior to the patents-in-suit. [Opposition, at p. 6 (citing Declaration of Alec Taylor, TT 34).] FGX has admitted that up to twenty percent of its contracts are "exclusive" in that they provide FGX with a "right of first refusal" to supply these customers with a product before the customers can obtain the product from another vendor. [D.I. 38, Defendant's Memorandum of Law in Opposition to Plaintiffs Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, at p. 4 (citing D.I. 39, Declaration of Alec Taylor filed April 27, 2007, at p. 2, 5).] FGX has never disputed that it has these "exclusive" type of contracts with Rite Aid and CVS. As explained in Sun Optics's Memorandum supporting its motion for preliminary injunction, Sun Optics was able to get around FGX's "exclusive" contract with Rite Aid by offering its now patented merchandising system to Rite Aid, a system that FGX did not offer at that time. [See D.I. 3, Plaintiffs Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for a

Preliminary Injunction, at p. 3 (citing D.I. 4, Declaration of Bruce Raile, at p. 2, ¶ 6).] Since entering Rite Aid, Sun Optics's patented merchandising system has out sold FGX's products in Rite Aid. [See id.] The success of Sun Optics's patented system resulted in Rite Aid taking additional shelf space from FGX and awarding that shelf space to Sun Optics for its patented system. [Id.] Apparently fearing that Sun Optics would penetrate its contract with CVS and have similar results to those it experienced at Rite Aid, FGX undermined Sun Optics's negotiations with CVS by offering to sell CVS the accused products depicted in the photograph. Thus, FGX is now using Sun Optics's patented product to preclude Sun Optics from obtaining an account with CVS, which represents over 6,000 stores nation wide. [See D.I. 24, Plaintiffs Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for Preliminary Injunction, at p. 6 (citing D.I. 25, Declaration of Bruce Raile, at p. 1, ¶ 5).] If a defendant's use of the patented product combined with exclusive contracts to exclude the patentee from significant markets is not irreparable harm, then one must question whether "irreparable halm." can ever exist. Excluding Sun Optics from significant portions of the market is not compensable in monetary damages, as argued by FGX. [Opposition, at p. 7.] The opinion Pergo, Inc. v. Taus Group, Inc., 401 F. Supp.2d 515 (E.D.N.C. 2005), cited by FGX is not binding on this Court, but supports Sun Optics's position in any event. In Pergo, the court states that "[w]hile plaintiffs and defendants are sharply in competition in the do-it-yourself center market, plaintiffs' contention of irreparable harm is supported only if, in the absence of defendants' product, both the Home Depot and Lowes chains would choose to market plaintiffs' product." Id. at 528. The court goes on to hold that these allegations of the plaintiff were "not sufficiently supported [by the evidence] to warrant a finding of irreparable harm." Id. Thus, the court in Pergo based its holding of no irreparable harm on an evidentiary deficiency, not on a legal theory. In other words, the court did not hold that the loss potential customers to alleged infringers and the development of a 8

distribution channel and relationships with retail outlets could not be irreparable harm as a matter of law, as FGX implies in its citation of Pergo. [Opposition, at 7.] To the contrary, the court's analysis of the evidence supporting these allegations in Pergo is a tacit acknowledgment that such allegations can support a finding of irreparable ham' when sufficiently supported by the evidence. In the present case, Sun Optics has met its evidentiary burden and shown that CVS and other distributors would have carried Sun Optics's patented products but for FGX's infringing activities. In the case of CVS, negotiations between CVS and Sun Optics were progressing until FGX, the incumbent vendor at CVS, offered its infringing display to CVS. [See D.I. 24, Plaintiffs Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for Preliminary Injunction, at p. 6 (citing D.I. 25, Declaration of Bruce Raile, at p. 1, ¶ 5).] At that point the negotiations halted. [Id.] The clear inference is that Sun Optics would have been able to secure an account with CVS but for FGX's introduction of its infringing display in CVS. As explained below, FGX's infringing product has also displaced Sun Optics's patented products with at least one distributor. Sun Optics has met its burden to show irreparable harm due to loss of customer relationships. Sun Optics also continues to rely upon the controlling Federal Circuit cases cited in its motion papers holding that loss of customer relationships, price erosion, and violation of a patentee's right to exclude each constitutes a various form of irreparable harm. [See D.I. 3, Plaintiffs Memorandum in Support of Its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, at pp. 12-14.] Further, because FGX's implementation of the patented invention is different stylistically from Sun Optics's implementation of the patented invention, it will be impossible to discern whether Sun Optics's implementation of the patented invention would sell more products than FGX's implementation. FGX's use of infringing activities and "exclusive" contracts to exclude Sun Optics from significant portions of the market, as evidenced by the photographs of the infringing CVS display, can not be compensated by monetary damages ­ the damage is irreparable. 9

Filed 07/26/2007 Page 13 of 15 Filed 08/01/2007 Page 13 of 15

The advertisements in Vision Monday are further evidence of irreparable harm being suffered by Sun Optics. This irreparable harm extends to both the design patents and the '739 utility patent. As established above, FGX's advertisement depicts an eyeglass case accused of infringing Sun Optics's design patents. As demonstrated at the oral hearing on May 18, 2007, these cases are marketed and sold as part of the countertop display accused of infringing the claims of the '739 patent. 3 FGX's and Sun Optics's respective advertisements in Vision Monday confirm that FGX's accused products and Sun Optics's patented products are competing head-to-head in the optical market (as opposed to other segments in the market foreclosed to Sun Optics by FGX's "exclusive" contracts as explained above). Last, FGX hangs its hat on the argument that "Plaintiff's failure to name even a single client or distributor [from which Sun Optics has been excluded] should be decisive" of the motions for preliminary injunction. As established above, Sun Optics has been excluded from CVS, which represents over 6,000 stores and potentially millions of dollars in sales each year. Further, three of Sun Optics's distributors of its patented products, Perch Optical, Aspire Optical, and Central Optical, are now carrying FGX's accused products. [Declaration of Bruce Raile, filed herewith, at p. 2, 4.] One of these distributors, Central Optical, no longer carries Sun Optics's patented products because it carries FGX's accused products instead. [Id. at p. 2,

¶ 5.] If identifying clients or

distributors from which Sun Optics has been excluded based on FGX's accused products is "decisive," as argued by FGX, then Sun Optics's motions for preliminary injunction should be granted.

3 FGX demonstrated for the Court that a hang tag may be inserted in the eyeglass cases accused of infringing the design patents to hang the cases from a hook to market them horizontally. [See 5/18/07 Transcript, at 50:25-51:20.] However, there is no evidence in the record that FGX actually markets these accused products using hang tags. The only evidence of record establishes that the accused designs are actually marketed vertically in displays accused of infringing the claims of the '739 patent. [See physical exhibit of FGX's countertop display submitted to the Court during oral arguments.]

Both the Vision Monday advertisements and the photographs of FGX's infringing products in CVS are after arising evidence of the irreparable harm FGX's infringing activities are causing to Sun Optics. Consequently, Sun Optics respectfully requests the Court to enter this evidence into the record to support Sun Optics's motions for preliminary injunction. III. CONCLUSION Based on the foregoing, both the Vision Monday advertisements and the photograph of FGX's infringing products in CVS are relevant evidence to Sun Optics's motions for preliminary injunction.
