`
`II.
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`(A)
`
`I am the Rupert and Lillian Radford Professor of Law at the Southern
`
`Methodist University (SMU) Dedman School of Law. I am the Director of the SMU
`
`Law School's Corporate Directors' Institute, the Director of the Law School's
`
`Corporate Extern Program, the faculty adviser to the SMU Corporate Counsel
`
`Symposium, and the former Senior Associate Dean for Academics and for Research
`
`at the SMU Law School. The courses I have taught since I entered full-time teaching
`
`in 1982 include Securities Regulation, Securities Litigation and Enforcement, and
`
`Business Enterprises.
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Three (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`(8) Prior to becoming a full-time academician in 1982, I was an attorney at the
`
`U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including serving as an attorney in
`
`the SEC's Division of Enforcement and as special projects counsel to the SEC's
`
`General Counsel.
`
`(C) From 1986 to the present, I have served as a consultant to law firms and as
`
`an expert witness in scores of matters involving the securities laws, including with
`
`respect to custom and practice in this area.
`
`(D)
`
`I received my undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan, my law
`
`degree (J.D.) from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and my masters
`
`of law degree (LL.M.) from Yale University. I am a member of the California, District
`
`of Columbia (inactive), Maryland, and Texas Bars. I also am a life member of The
`
`American Law Institute (ALI).
`
`(E)
`
`I have authored over 125 law journal articles as well as approximately 28
`
`books. For example, books of mine that address issues raised in this Matter include:
`
`"Securities Regulation" (6th edition 2013); "Understanding Securities Law" (6th
`
`edition 2014); "Securities Regulation: Liabilities and Remedies" (2014) (first
`
`published 1984); "Securities Practice: Federal and State Enforcement'' (2d edition
`
`2001) (and annual supplement) (coauthored); "Corporate Internal Affairs: A
`
`Corporate and Securities Law Perspective" (1983). I also have authored a number
`
`of law journal articles that analyze issues related to this Matter.
`
`(F)
`
`I have lectured outside of the United States on securities law issues,
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Four (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`including for example, presenting at law schools and/or the practicing bar in
`
`Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, England, Finland, Germany, Israel, Italy, japan,
`
`Russia, South Africa, and Sweden.
`
`(G)
`
`I am the editor-in-chief of The Securities Regulation Law journal, am the
`
`co-editor-in-chief of The International Lawyer, and serve on the advisory board of
`
`The journal of Corporation Law.
`
`III. OPINIONS RENDERED
`
`In this Matter, NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Patent Owner) contends that
`
`Petitioner has engaged in stock manipulation in violation of Section lO(b) of The
`
`Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule lOb-5 promulgated thereunder. See,
`
`e.g., Patent Owner's Briefin Response to the Board's Request for Additional Briefing
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. Sec. 42.20( d), at page 6 (hereinafter referred to as Patent
`
`Owner's Brief). This contention is erroneous.
`
`(A) Patent Owner alleges in this Matter that Petitioner has engaged in stock
`
`manipulation in violation of Section lO(b) of the Securities Exchange Act and SEC
`
`Rule lOb-5 promulgated thereunder. The law is clear that the federal district courts
`
`"shall have exclusive jurisdiction of violations of [the Securities Exchange Act] or
`
`the rules and regulations thereunder .... " Section 27(a) of the Securities Exchange
`
`Act. Insofar as I am aware, the only exception to this principle is when the litigating
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Five (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`parties enter into an enforceable arbitration agreement. See Shearson/American
`
`Express, Inc. v. McMahon, 482 U.S. 220 (1987) (holding, inter alia, that pre-dispute
`
`arbitration agreements between brokerage firms and their customers permissible
`
`under the Securities Exchange Act).
`
`(8) Patent Owner contends in this Matter that Petitioner violated Section 10(b)
`
`of the Securities Exchange Act and SEC Rule 10b-5 thereunder. Clearly, in an
`
`action for damages for violations of these provisions, a plaintiff must be a purchaser
`
`or seller of the subject securities in connection with the alleged misconduct. See
`
`Blue Chip Stamps v. Manor Drug Stores, 421 U.S. 723 (1975). A number of courts
`
`have extended this purchaser-seller standing requirement to suits seeking
`
`injunctive relief. See Cowin v. Bresler, 741F.2d410 (D.C. Cir. 1984). In this Matter,
`
`I have seen no materials that indicate that Patent Owner was a purchaser or seller
`
`of the subject securities in connection with Petitioner's alleged misconduct.
`
`(C)
`
`In this Matter, Patent Owner contends that, by engaging in stock
`
`manipulation, Petitioner has engaged in fraud. In order to state such a claim in
`
`an action brought in federal court for alleged violation of Section 10(b) and Rule
`
`lOb-5, a complainant must not only plead fraud with particularity under Rule 9(b)
`
`of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure but also must satisfy the more stringent
`
`pleading requirements set forth in Section 21 D(b) of the Securities Exchange Act.
`
`Enacted pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PSLRA),
`
`this statute requires, inter a/ia, that plaintiffs must "state with particularity facts
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Six (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`giving rise to a strong inference that the defendant acted with the required state of
`
`mind." As interpreted by the Supreme Court, to satisfy this statutory mandate, the
`
`inference of sci enter "must be cogent and at least as compelling as any opposing
`
`inference ofnonfraudulent intent." Tellabs, Inc. v. Makar Issues & Rights, Ltd., 551
`
`U.S. 308 (2007). In this Matter, Patent Owner's contentions of Petitioner's alleged
`
`fraudulent conduct are far too generalized to meet the demanding pleading
`
`requirements of the federal securities laws. As will be elaborated upon below in
`
`this Declaration, Patent Owner has not identified any actionable conduct engaged
`
`in by Petitioner under the federal securities laws.
`
`(D) Patent-Owner makes much of the fact that Petitioner is taking part in a
`
`"short activist strategy". See Patent Owner's Brief at page 5. Short-selling is a
`
`common trading technique and, absent unlawful conduct, is permissible. As the
`
`Second Circuit stated, "short selling -- even in high volumes -- is not, by itself,
`
`manipulative [and that] [a]side from providing market liquidity, short selling
`
`enhances pricing efficiency by helping to move the prices of overvalued securities
`
`toward their intrinsic values." ATS! Communications, Inc. v. ShaarFund, Ltd., 493
`
`F. 3d 87, 101 (2d Cir. 2007). See Jn re Olympia Brewing Co. Securities Litigation,
`
`613 F. Supp. 1286, 1296 (N.D. Ill. 1985) (stating that "short selling is simply not
`
`unlawful, even in large numbers and even ifthe trading does negatively affect the
`
`purchase price").
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Seven (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`(E) Patent-Owner contends that Petitioner is engaged in stock manipulation.
`
`See Patent Owner's Brief at pages 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11. Patent Owner's use of this term
`
`is not consistent with what is defined as stock manipulation within the meaning of
`
`the federal securities laws. As the Supreme Court has observed, manipulation
`
`"connotes intentional or willful conduct designed to deceive or defraud investors by
`
`controlling or artificially affecting the price of securities." Ernst & Ernst v.
`
`Hochfelder, 425 U.S. 185, 199 (1976). And, as stated by the High Court in Santa Fe
`
`Industries, Inc. v. Green, 430 U.S. 462, 476 (1977): '"Manipulation' is 'virtually a
`
`term of art when used in connection with securities markets' ... [and] refers
`
`generally to practices, such as wash sales, matched orders, or rigged prices, that are
`
`intended to mislead investors by artificially affecting market activity." And, as more
`
`recently asserted by the Second Circuit: "A market manipulation claim, however,
`
`cannot be based solely upon misrepresentations or omissions. There must be some
`
`market activity, such as 'wash sales, matched orders, or rigged prices."' A TS!
`
`Communications, Inc. v. Shaar Fund, Ltd., 493 F.3d 87, 101 (2d Cir. 2007) (citations
`
`omitted). lam unaware that Petitioner engaged in any of these proscribed practices.
`
`(F) Even if stock manipulation can be shown by the knowing injection of
`
`inaccurate information into the market for the purpose of artificially inflating or
`
`depressing the price of the subject security (see GFL Advantage Fund, Ltd. v. Co/kitt,
`
`272 F. 3d 189, 207 (3d Cir. 2001)), Patent Owner's contentions fail. As set forth
`
`below in this Declaration, based on the information 1 have reviewed, Petitioner
`
`did not engage in actionable misconduct. Indeed, even assuming arguendo that
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Eight (Declaration of Marc l. Steinberg)
`
`Patent Owner is correct that Petitioner did inject false information into the market,
`
`this conduct would not be actionable as the market was aware, according to Patent
`
`Owner, of Petitioner's plan: "The Bass Group has made no secret that the [IPR]
`
`Petitions are part of a 'short activist strategy.' This is short-hand for taking short
`
`positions on stock and then using the IPR process and misrepresentations to drive
`
`down stock prices." Patent Owner's Brief at page S (citation omitted) (emphasis
`
`supplied).
`
`(G) Patent Owner contends that Petitioner made a number of materially
`
`misleading statements -- namely, Petitioner's statements that its IPR petitions
`
`"shortenO patent exclusivity, hasten[] generic entry, and 'lowerO' drug prices
`
`for everyone." Patent Owner's Brief at page 2. These types of statements are
`
`predictive, forward-looking, and soft; they are not the types of statements that
`
`are deemed "material" and actionable under the federal securities laws. These are
`
`not statements that a reasonable investor would consider important when making
`
`one's investment decision to purchase the subject security. As stated by the Fourth
`
`Circuit in Raab v. General Physics Corporation, 4 F. 3d 286 (4th Cir. 1993): "Analysts
`
`and arbitrageurs rely on facts in determining the value of a security; not mere
`
`expressions of optimism .... "
`
`(H) Patent Owner also contends that Petitioner engaged in omission of
`
`material facts relating to its failure to disclose that "unchallenged patents and
`
`unchallenged '886 patent claims would still be enforceable, and that it must win
`
`both IP Rs to have the '886 patent de listed from the Orange Book .... " Patent Owner's
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Nine (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`Brief at page 6. This contention misses the mark as this information was already
`
`widely known pursuant to the Orange Book. Indeed, in Patent Owner's Preliminary
`
`Response in this Matter, it refers to information contained in the Orange Book to
`
`"clearly showff' the status ofGATTEX. See Patent Owner's Preliminary Response
`
`at page 27 (stating that "Petitioner also ignores that GATTEX[], the commercial
`
`embodiment of the invention of the '886 patent as clearly shown by its listing in the
`
`Orange Book for GATTEXO, was awarded orphan drug status by the FDA'). Thus,
`
`the Orange Book, published by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is "an
`
`official FDA publication available to the public online." Hollander v. Ortho-McNeil(cid:173)
`
`janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 805 F. Supp. 2d 133, 137 (E.D. Pa. 2011) (also stating:
`
`'[g]iven the accessibility of patent information online"). See Merck & Co., Inc.
`
`v. Mediplan Health Consulting, Inc., 434 F. Supp. 2d 257, 264 (S.D.N.Y. 2006) (stating
`
`that "the Orange Book is available to the public"); Cyran, Kyle Bass Wields New
`
`Weapon in Challenging Drug Makers, New York Times, February 11, 2015, NPS EX.
`
`2020 (stating that "[e]ven if Mr. Bass succeeds against Acorda, the company's drug
`
`will still have four patents protecting it against generic competition until 2027").
`
`Hence, based on my understanding that the Orange Book is widely followed,
`
`accessible, and the information contained therein is known to the market, Petitioner
`
`was under no obligation to disclose this information. See In re Convergent
`
`Technologies, 948 F. 2d 507, 513 (91h Cir. 1991) (stating that "an omission is
`
`materially misleading only if the information has not already entered the market").
`
`CFAD Exhibit 1036
`
`

`
`Page Ten (Declaration of Marc I. Steinberg)
`
`(I) From my review of the news sources I have reviewed, Petitioner's alleged
`
`strategy is well known. In a Business Insider article dated January 7, 2015, mention
`
`is made of Petitioner's alleged "short activist strategy". NPS EX .. 2035. In a
`
`February 11, 2015 New York Times article, mention is made of "the next big
`
`short". The article thereafter discusses the track record of Petitioner's alleged
`
`strategy at that point NPS EX. 2020. And, in an article in the Wall Street Journal
`
`dated April 7, 2015 entitled New Hedge Fund Strategy: Dispute the Patent, Short the
`
`Stock (NPS EX. 2035), the alleged strategy is set forth in some detail. The article
`
`begins by stating: "A well-known hedge-fund manager is taking a novel approach
`
`to making money: filing and publicizing patent challenges against pharmaceutical
`
`companies while also betting against their shares." Thus, from widespread public
`
`information, Petitioner's alleged strategy was disclosed and understood by the
`
`market.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America
`
`that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and
`
`belief.
