`GENENTECH’S EMERGENCY MOTION FOR A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION
`
`Plaintiff Genentech, Inc. by and through their undersigned counsel, respectfully seek an
`
`Order preliminarily enjoining defendant Amgen, Inc. from commercially launching, marketing
`

`
`merits of Genentech’s patent infringement claims following trial, and until the Court of Appeals
`
`for the Federal Circuit has adjudicated any appeal of that decision. Genentech is simultaneously
`
`filing an Emergency Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order to maintain the status quo until
`
`this motion can be heard.
`
`The grounds for Plaintiffs’ motion are set forth in Genentech’s Combined Opening Brief
`
`in Support of Its Emergency Motions for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary
`
`Injunction, Declarations in Support, and accompanying exhibits filed contemporaneously
`
`herewith, along with a Proposed Order.
