1 Patent Damages in China: Crossing the River by Feeling the Stones Jill (Yijun) Ge April 20, 2017 Allen & Overy 2017
2 China: The Low Damages Jurisdiction Average damages award: RMB 80,000 to RMB 150,000. Statutory damages have been the norm. Upper limit: RMB 1 million. For about 95% of the cases. Boilerplate language in the judgments - considering the factors as a whole, the Court hereby orders damages of RMB 2 reasons: (1) strict burden of proof on the part of patentees actual profits/ actual sales, and (2) lack of discovery. Chinese courts have started to address the low damages issue. Allen & Overy
3 Recent Trend #1 Use procedural measures to mitigate the lack of discovery Infringers: Rule of obstruction of evidence Request a defendant to adduce books/accounts and draw negative inference if the defendant refuses to do so. Article 27 of 2016 Supreme Court s Judicial Interpretation Article 61 of draft Amendment to Patent Law Article 63 of 2014 Trademark Law Third parties: Courts inherent investigative powers Investigation letters issued to third parties Allen & Overy
4 Recent Trend #2 Relax the patentees burden of proof Support the plaintiff s rough estimate and order damages based on the defendant s illegal gains. Use industrial average as a proxy for the defendant s profit margin. Enhance statutory damages awards when evidence so warrants. Considering bad faith evidence (a built-in punitive component) Considering circumstantial evidence Supreme Court has coined the term discretionary damages. For damages amount exceeding the upper limit of the statutory damages Allen & Overy
5 WatchData v. Hengbao (Beijing IP Court 2016) Ordered damages of RMB 49m (~ US$ 71m). Also ordered attorneys fees of RMB 1m. A record for the most powerful IP court in China. Chinese company sued another Chinese company. Patented technology: USB encryption product for online banking. And the plaintiff s damages theory was fully adopted Allen & Overy
6 WatchData v. Hengbao (Beijing IP Court 2016) Part I: P s lost sales in respect of D s sales to 12 banks (1) Per unit profit = RMB 10 P s audit report: P s profits are RMB and RMB 9.82 for two respective sales; Public disclosure documents of a third party: average profit is RMB (2) Total units sold to 12 banks = 4,814,200 Per the responses from Bank of China and 2 other entities to court s investigation letter. Lost sales = Per unit profit (1) * total units (2) = RMB million Part II: D s illegal gains derived from sales to 3 other banks D twice refused to submit its books re those sales. P s estimation: in accordance with industry standard, D s profits > 2m. Court: need to draw a negative inference against D and P only requested RMB 0.858m. Total damages = RMB m + RMB 0.858m = RMB 49m Allen & Overy
7 Does rough estimate lead to overcompensation? Huawei v. InterDigital (Guangdong High Court, October 2013) 0.019% running royalty rate calculated from Apple s 7-year lump sum license signed with InterDigitial in Clearly not economically sound. Hailed as a model case by the Chinese judiciary. Iwncomm v. Sony (Beijing IP Court, March 2017) Ordered close to RMB 9 million for past infringement of a single SEP. Relied on 4 portfolio licenses as a benchmark for reasonable royalties. No detailed analysis; unclear if the comparables are reliable. Allen & Overy
8 Issues to Watch How rough is too rough? Comparable licenses? Apportionment? Sales profits v. operating profits? Allen & Overy
9 Crossing the river + feeling the stones Allen & Overy
