`
`4-
`
`I further understand that, in response to a motion for Additional
`
`Discovery from the Patent Owner NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the Board ordered as
`
`follows:
`
`In particular, as to Request for Production No. 6, we
`authorize additional discovery only as to any agreements,
`in the possession of Petitioner, relating to the control or
`ability to control any aspect of the current proceeding by
`a party not designated as Petitioner or a real party-in-
`interest in the Petition. Such agreements include those
`indicating that any person or party (other than Petitioner
`or designated real parties—in—interest) provided direction
`to, or had the authority to provide direction to, Petitioner
`or its counsel in relation to this proceeding, including
`persons or parties who reviewed, or were given the
`opportunity to review, papers filed in this proceeding.
`
`IPR20l5—00990, Paper 14 at p. 7; IPR20l5—0l093, Paper 14 at p. 7.
`
`5.
`
`In response to this Order and at the request of Petitioner, I conducted a
`
`diligent search for any agreements in the possession of nXnP, lPNav or myself
`

`

`
`Page 3
`
`

`
`“relating to the control or ability to control any aspect of the current proceeding[s]
`
`by a party not designated as Petitioner or a real party—in—interest in the Petition[s]-”
`
`I located no agreements in the possession of nXnP, IPNav or myself that meet this
`
`definition.
`
`6.
`
`Further, my search located no agreements in the possession of nXnP,
`
`IPNav or myself “indicating that any person or party (other than Petitioner or
`
`designated real parties-in-interest) provided direction to, or had the authority to
`
`provide direction to, Petitioner or its counsel in relation to th[ese] proceeding[s].”
`
`7.
`
`The fact that my search did not locate documents responsive to the
`
`Board’s Order comports with CFAD’s identification of the real parties—in—interest
`
`in its Petitions. As stated in the Petitions, only CFAD, Hayman Capital
`
`Management, L.P., J Kyle Bass, nXnP and I have “authority to direct or control (i)
`
`the timing of, filing of, content of, or any decisions or other activities relating to
`
`this Petition or (ii) any timing, future filings, content of, or any decisions or other
`
`activities relating to the future proceedings related to th[ese] Petition[s]-”
`
`IPR2015—00990, Paper 1 at pp. 4-5; IPR2015—0l093, Paper 1 at p. 4. There is no
`
`person or party who reviewed, or was given the opportunity to review, papers filed
`
`in these proceedings, who provided direction to, or had the authority to provide
`
`direction to, Petitioner or its counsel (other than Petitioner or designated real
`
`parties-in-interest, or their employees and counsel).

`
`Moreover, the counsel who file the papers in these proceedings on
`
`behalf of CFAD are given instructions only by CFAD, Hayman Capital
`
`Management, L.P. (or its employees), J Kyle Bass, nXnP (or its employees) or
`
`myself.
