`Subject: IPR2015-01099
`
`Your Honors,
`
`I represent the Lupin Petitioners in IPR2015-01099. We filed Petitioner Replies in four IPRs on
`Friday, April 22, 2016, in IPR2015-01099, 01097, 01100 and 01105.
`
`In the Petitioner Reply for IPR2015-01099, Petitioners inadvertently failed to mark the version of
`the Reply filed as Board and Parties Only with the header “Protective Order Material – Fed R
`Evid 615”. A Board and Party only version of the Reply marked with this header is attached. The
`addition of the “Protective Order Material – Fed R Evid 615” header to each page of this
`document is the only change from what was filed on April 22, 2016.
`
`Petitioners respectfully request that the PTAB replace the Board and Parties version of the Reply
`currently in PRPS with the attached marked document. Alternatively, please advise if
`Petitioners should refile the document.
`
`
`Patent Owners have requested that Petitioners take this action and do not oppose it. Patent
`Owners’ counsel are copied here.
`
`
`Best regards,
`Deborah Yellin
