`
`PETITIONER’S UPDATED MANDATORY NOTICES
`AND FEE PAYMENT INFORMATION
`__________________________________________________________________
`
`

`
`Petitioner Umicore AG & Co. KG (“Umicore” or “Petitioner”) hereby
`
`provides notice that both its lead and back-up counsel in this proceeding have
`
`changed law firm affiliations from Kenyon & Kenyon LLP to Orrick, Herrington,
`
`and Sutcliffe LLP. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.8(a)(3), Petitioner’s updated
`
`mandatory notices are below, reflecting its counsels’ new electronic service
`
`information, post and delivery addresses, and telephone and fax numbers.
`
`Petitioner has also updated the fee payment information from its original Petition
`
`to reflect that Orrick, Herrington, and Sutcliffe LLP’s deposit account should be
`
`used for any future fees incurred by Petitioner in connection with this IPR.
`
`I.
`
`Mandatory Notices (37 C.F.R. § 42.8)
`
`A.
`
`Real Party-in-Interest (37 C.F.R. § 42.8(b)(1))
`
`Petitioner, Umicore, along with parent Umicore S.A. (also referred to as
`
`“Umicore NV”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Umicore USA Inc., Umicore
`
`Autocat Canada Corp., and Umicore Autocat USA Inc. are the real parties-in-
`
`interest.
`
`B.
`
`Related Matters (37 C.F.R. § 42.8(b)(2))
`
`Another pending IPR, IPR2015-01123, also relates to the ’203 patent. This
`
`IPR focuses on primary prior art references that disclose aluminosilicate CHA
`
`catalysts with copper to aluminum atomic ratios within the claimed range, and
`
`secondary references that disclose and provide the motivation to modify the
`
`-1-
`
`

`
`primary reference catalysts to use silica to alumina mole ratios within the claimed
`
`range. The -1123 IPR focuses on the reverse: There, the primary prior art
`
`reference discloses aluminosilicate CHA catalysts (that are specifically intended
`
`for use in internal combustion engines) that have a silica to alumina mole ratio
`
`within the claimed range. The secondary reference discloses and provides a
`
`motivation to modify those catalysts by adding copper, resulting in a copper to
`
`aluminum atomic ratio within the claimed range.
