`
`NOTICE OF STIPULATION OF DUE DATES
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Medtronic, Inc., Medtronic Vascular, Inc., and Medtronic CoreValve, LLC
`
`(collectively “Petitioner”) and Patent Owner, Troy R. Norred, jointly stipulate to
`
`move Due Dates 4 and 5 as follows:
`
`
`Due Date 4
`Due Date 5
`
`Current Date
`December 5, 2014
`December 15, 2014
`
`Stipulated New Date
`December 31, 2014
`January 9, 2015
`
`These due dates were originally set in the Scheduling Order dated April 25,
`
`2014 (Paper 11), were amended by joint stipulation of the partes as reflected in the
`
`Notice of Stipulation of Due Dates dated September 11, 2014 (Paper 22), and were
`
`further amended by the Board’s Order on October 29, 2014 (Paper 28). The
`
`Scheduling Order provides that the parties may stipulate to different dates for Due
`
`Dates 1 through 5 (earlier or later, but no later than Due Date 6); however, in an
`
`email from the Board dated October 31, 2014, the parties were advised to file a
`
`Notice of Stipulation reflecting the change in Due Dates 4 and 5 to December 31,
`
`2014, and January 9, 2015, respectively. In that same email, the Board also author-
`
`ized the parties to file a joint motion to move Due Date 6 from December 22, 2014
`
`to January 19, 2015. Below is the Scheduling Order Due Date Appendix, reflecting
`
`stipulated Due Dates 4 and 5, and proposed Due Date 6.
