    1Cites to the Farmwald/Horowitz patent specifications are to U.S. Patent Nos. 6,260,097 (097 patent) and 7,209,997 (997 patent).

    2 As used herein,Hynix Irefers toHynix Semiconductor Inc. et al. v. Rambus Inc., No. CV-00-20905 RMW (N.D. Cal.). Becausemany of the terms were construed previously by the Court inHynix I, Rambus may rely on the supporting intrinsic and extrinsic evidence offeredby Rambus in that case relating to the terms in support of its proposed constructions. ThisHynix I Evidence is available to at the belowlisted

    Hynix Idocket numbers. As used in these tables, Hynix IEvidence relating to a particular term should be understood to include Rambus
