`
`Dear Magistrate Judge Fallon:
`
`
`Defendant Apple Inc. (“Apple”) writes to inform Your Honor that a petition for inter partes
`review previously filed by Unified Patents for invalidity under 35 U.S.C. §103 of one of the patents
`asserted in this litigation, U.S. Patent No. 8,577,813, has been instituted as to all claims challenged
`in the petition (claims 1-3 and 5-26). The panel’s written decision on institution is attached as
`Exhibit A.
`
`
`Apple will continue to keep the Court apprised of activity in the U.S. Patent & Trademark
`Office related to this litigation. Should Your Honor have any questions or concerns, counsel are
`available at the Court’s convenience.
