SUPPLEMENTAL CLAIM CONSTRUCTION BRIEF OF MARITZ INC.
Defendant Maritz lnc. submits this supplemental brief on claim construction. This
supplemental tiling is necessary to alleviate an ambiguity that Aftlnéon alleges exists in l\/§aritz’s
claim construction position. See 3).1. 183, {E3. Af`finion’s actions that necessitated this supplemental
brief are set forth in detail in Ma1itz’s Response to Statement of Disputed Facts in Response to
l\/laritz’s Motion for Summary Judgment of Noninfringement filed on July 14, 2006 (DE. 195).
To enable the Court to make a fully informed claim construction determination, unhindered
by any potential ambiguity, Maritz provides the following clarification: "On-line incentive
program? as properly interpreted, means "a frequency program that awards points to users
for on-line product purchases rrmde through the program is website? Maritz requests the Court to
adopt this proposed construction for the same reasons set forth in Maritz’s briefing on claim
construction (D.I. 139) and its oral presentation at the June 7, 2006 Hearing.
Respectfully submitted,
