`Here is Hospira’s general proposal for proceeding with the two related cases. This proposal does not have client
`approval; it is for discussion purposes and is not binding. We are available to confer this afternoon. Please let us know if
`you are available at 1pm to discuss the parties’ proposals.
`
`Thanks,
`Yusuf

`
`
`Thank you for the revisions. Fresenius Kabi does not have any additional edits. Who’s signature may we
`add to the joint motion?
`
`Noon Wednesday works for our side. We proposed that the parties should also exchange proposed
`schedules at that time to make the conference afterwards more productive.

`
`Joel,
`
`Here are Hospira’s edits to the motion to reassign. Having this motion and the post-claim construction status hearing
`scheduled for Thursday works for Hospira.
`
`We propose that the parties exchange, by noon on Wednesday, a general identification of the fact discovery each likely
`intends to seek. We can then confer if needed regarding discovery and scheduling prior to the hearing.
`
`Thanks,
`Yusuf

`
`
`Sara,
`
`
`Further to our conversation today, attached is the draft joint motion to reassign the recently filed case
`(17-cv-7903) from Judge Dickson to Judge Pallmeyer. We understand that Hospira favors consolidating
`the cases into a single action (16-cv-651).
`
`
`Also as discussed, we will be filing our Answer and Counterclaims shortly in the newly filed suit. Local
`Rules prefer that an answer is filed before reassignment is requested. As we discussed, the counterclaims
`will identify the ‘712 patent, for which FK sent Hospira a Paragraph IV Notice Letter but has not been
`asserted.
`
`
`Please let us know if you have any edits or comments to the motion, and if we have your consent to file.
`
`
`Relatedly, Judge Pallmeyer is out Tuesday and Wednesday next week, so our plan was to notice the
`motion for Thursday. Are you available that day? Also, would that date work for holding the status
`conference regarding post-claim construction discovery and scheduling?
`
`
`
`Regards,
`Joel
