`One (1)
`
`Pursuant to the provisions of Rule 26 and 33 of the Federal Rules of Civil
`
`Procedure, Defendant Artesian Home Products, Inc. (“Defendant” or “Responding
`
`Party”) hereby submits its responses to Plaintiff Gutterglove Inc’s (“Plaintiff”)
`Common Interrogatories, Set No. One. Defendant expressly reserves the right to
`
`make changes to these responses if it appears that omissions or errors have been made
`
`or that further or more accurate information is available.
`
`These responses state the knowledge, information, and belief of Defendant as of
`
`the date of these responses. Defendant is presently engaged in its own investigation
`
`and discovery. As of the date of preparation of these responses, Defendant has not
`
`had the benefit of additional information which can be obtained through discovery.
`Defendant does not represent nor intend to represent that these responses
`
`contain all information relevant to the subject matter of the Interrogatories. Further
`
`investigation is likely to lead to additional information relevant to the subject matter
`
`of the Interrogatories. As a result, Defendant hereby reserves the right to amend or
`
`supplement these responses at any time and/or to use any subsequently acquired
`
`information at trial, any other hearing, and/or for any other purpose.
`
`Moreover, Defendant notes that its responses may be based upon hearsay or

`waive and hereby specifically reserves the right to object to the introduction into
`
`evidence of the Interrogatories and/or the responses thereto at any trial, hearing,
`
`and/or for any other purpose.
`
`Defendant hereby responds to the Interrogatories, Set No. One, from Plaintiff as
`
`said forth below.
`
`GENERAL OBJECTIONS
`
`Responding Party objects to the interrogatories propounded on the following
`
`grounds, which objections are incorporated into each and every specific response set
`
`forth below:
`
`1.
`
`Responding Party objects to each interrogatory to the extent that it seeks
`
`production of information protected by the attorney client privilege or attorney work
`
`product rule.
`
`2.
`
`Responding Party objects to each interrogatory to the extent that it seeks
`
`to expand upon the obligation of the responding party under any applicable Federal
`
`rule, rule of Court or local rule.
`
`3.
`
`Responding Party has not completed its investigation of facts related to
`
`this case, has not completed discovery, and has not completed preparation for trial.
`
`Thus, Responding Party's responses at this stage are made only on the basis of such
`
`information as is currently known to it and reasonably available. These responses do
`
`not purport to constitute a final statement of all of Responding Party's knowledge
`
`regarding a particular subject and are made without prejudice to Responding Party's
`
`right to introduce additional evidence at the time of trial or to supplement these
`
`responses, as appropriate, upon completion of discovery and trial preparation, or

`SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO INTERROGATORY NO. 6:
`
`The information provided in response to this interrogatory is to be considered
`
`Highly Confidential under the protective order governing this lawsuit.
`
`Due to the broad scope of Plaintiff s discovery demand in defining “Accused
`
`lnstrumentalities” Defendant has chosen to give details on all five of its products here
`
`(Valor, Bolt, Arrow, Diamond and Superior), Defendant notes that Plaintiff’s
`
`complaint and infringement contentions only asserts four of the products as the
`
`“Accused Instrumentalities” (Valor, Arrow, Bolt, Diamond); therefore, Defendants
`
`reserve their right to object to the introduction into this case of any products not
