`
`
`Joint Motion to Terminate and Notice of Agreement
`IPR2016-00151 (U.S. Patent No. 8,141,154)
`
`
`RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`
`I.
`
`Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 317 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74, and as authorized by the
`
`Board in an email dated January 17, 2019, Petitioner Symantec Corp., and Patent
`
`Owner, Finjan, Inc., provide notice that they have reached an agreement and
`
`jointly request that Case No. IPR2016-00151, an inter partes review of U.S. Patent
`
`No. 8,141,154, be terminated with respect to Symantec.
`
` REASONS FOR THE RELIEF REQUESTED
`II.
`Symantec and Finjan have reached an agreement regarding their disputes
`
`involving the ‘154 patent. Accordingly, Symantec and Finjan jointly request that
`
`the present inter partes review be terminated as to Symantec, pursuant to 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 317(a).
`
` RELATED LITIGATION AND PTAB PROCEEDINGS
`III.
`Symantec and Finjan have settled their disputes involving the ’154 patent in
`
`the related district court litigation.
`
`The ’154 patent is currently being asserted in the following pending
`
`litigations:
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Juniper Networks, Inc., Case No. 3:17-cv-05659-WHA (N.D.
`
`Cal.);
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Qualys Inc, No. 4:18-cv-07229 (N.D. Cal.);
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Rapid7, Inc., et al., No. 1:18-cv-01519 (D. Del.);

`
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Check Point Software Technologies, Inc., et al., No. 18-cv-
`
`02621 (N.D. Cal.);
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Bitdefender Inc., et al., No. 17-cv-04790 (N.D. Cal.);
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. SonicWall, Inc., No. 17-cv-04467 (N.D. Cal.);
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Cisco Systems, Inc., No. 17-cv-00072 (N.D. Cal.); and
`
`Finjan, Inc. v. Palo Alto Networks, Inc., No. 14-cv-04908 (N.D. Cal.).
`
`The ‘154 Patent was previously the subject of six IPRs. Case Nos.
`
`IPR2015-01547 was denied institution. Case Nos. IPR2015-01979, IPR2016-
`
`00151, IPR2016-00919, IPR2016-00937, and IPR2016-01071. IPR2015-01979
`
`were consolidated on appeal at the Federal Circuit, Nos. 17-2314 and No. 17-2315.
`
`The Federal Circuit affirmed the Board’s Final Written Decision in IPR2015-
`
`01979 and vacated and remanded the Final Written Decision in the instant case,
`
`IPR2016-00151, “proceedings consistent with the Supreme Court's decision in
`
`SAS Institute.” Palo Alto Networks, Inc., v. Finjan, Inc., Nos. 2017-2314, 2017-
`
`2315 (Fed. Cir. Nov. 9, 2018).
`
`There are no other proceedings, either before the Board or elsewhere,
`
`involving the subject patent. Finjan is unable to comment whether any other
`
`litigation or proceeding involving the subject patent is contemplated in the
`
`foreseeable future.
