an Automotive Machine For Producing Carriageways. The 512 patent was duly and validly issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on April 5, 2011. A copy of the 512 patent is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 8. Wirtgen is the exclusive licensee by agreement of the 512 patent and has the

right to enforce the patent. DEFENDANTS AND THEIR UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES 9. Roadtec has infringed directly, contributorally and via inducement the 512 patent

in this district and elsewhere by making, using, offering to sell, and selling products identified as the SX-7 Machine and the SX-5 Machine (Accused Products). 10. Roadtec through its marketing and promotional materials and communications

has been and is actively and knowingly infringing the 512 patent by offering to sell and selling

the Accused Products, and Roadtec is inducing and contributing to the direct infringement by others of the 512 patent. 11. At no time has Roadtec been granted the authorization, license or permission to

practice the inventions claimed in the 512 patent. 12. Upon information and belief, Roadtec had knowledge of the 512 patent, and its
