Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 16, 2015, Finjan Holdings, Inc. (“Finjan” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that Finjan filed a second lawsuit against Blue Coat Systems, Inc., asserting additional Finjan patents against new infringing Blue Coat products and services.
The Complaint (5:15-cv-03295, Docket No. 1), filed July 15, 2015, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleges that Blue Coat’s new products and services infringe Finjan’s U.S. Patent Numbers:
6,154,844 (the “’844 Patent”, issued 11/28/2000);
6,965,968 (the “’968 Patent”, issued 11/15/2005);
7,418,731 (the “‘731 Patent”, issued 8/26/2008);
8,079,086 (the “’086 Patent”, issued 12/13/2011);
8,225,408 (the “’408 Patent”, issued 7/17/2012);
8,566,580 (the “’580 Patent”, issued 10/22/2013); and
8,677,494 (the “’494 Patent”, issued 3/18/2014).
It was determined by Finjan that the patents listed were infringed after it had filed its first case against Blue Coat (5:13-cv-03999-BLF) on August 28, 2013. Four patents, namely, the ‘086, the ‘408, the ‘580, and the ‘494 patents, are being asserted against Blue Coat for the first time.
The accused products include certain of Blue Coat’s ProxySG Appliances and Software, the ProxyAV Appliances and Software, and WebPulse Services, some of which Blue Coat recently launched.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
