Item 3. Legal Proceedings

On September 29-30, 2021, Honeywell filed patent litigation lawsuits against Zebra in multiple jurisdictions, including the International Trade Commission and Federal District Court in the Western District of Texas in the United States, as well as foreign courts in the United Kingdom, Germany and China. Honeywell has made substantially similar allegations of patent infringement in all cases filed. The technology addressed in the various actions generally includes aspects of data capture, barcode reading, and scanning. The allegedly infringing Zebra products identified in the actions are described as barcode scanners, mobile computers with barcode scanning capabilities, scan engines, and components thereof. The remedies sought in these lawsuits include damages and injunctive relief. The same Zebra products and technology are implicated in all of the lawsuits. The cases are in their earliest stages and Zebra intends to vigorously defend against these infringement allegations.
