`00596, IPR2017-00579 and IPR2017-00598, IPR2017-00583 and IPR2017-00599,
`IPR2017-00585 and IPR2017-00600, and IPR2017-00586 and IPR2017-00601,
`have respectively been joined with the captioned proceedings. The word-for-word
`identical paper is filed in each proceeding identified in the caption pursuant to the

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.8(a)(3), the undersigned on behalf of and acting
`
`in a representative capacity for Petitioner Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Mylan”),
`
`hereby submits the following mandatory change-of-information notices in
`
`connection with the inter partes reviews identified in the caption.
`
`A. Real Party-In-Interest (37 C.F.R. § 42.8(b)(1)) – Unchanged
`
`B. Related Matters (37 C.F.R. § 42.8(b)(2)) – Revised
`
`In Allergan, Inc. & St. Regis Mohawk Tribe v. Teva Pharmaceuticals USA,
`
`Inc., et al., 15-cv-1455 (E.D. Tex.), “the 13 asserted claims of the patents in suit—
`
`claims 26 and 27 of U.S. Patent No. 8,629,111; claims 1, 11, 13, 14, and 23 of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,648,048; claim 35 of U.S. Patent No. 8,685,930; and claims 13, 16,
`
`22, 26, and 27 of U.S. Patent No. 9,248,191—are declared to be invalid on the
`
`ground of obviousness, under 35 U.S.C. § 103 (2006).” See Dkt. No. 524 at 1
`
`(final judgment); id., Dkt. No. 523 at 135 (findings of fact and conclusions of law).
`
`Regarding joinder of the Tribe, the Court stated:
`
`[T]he Court has serious reservations about whether the contract
`
`between Allergan and the Tribe should be recognized as valid, rather
`
`than being held void as being contrary to public policy. … [But] the
`
`Court is not required to decide whether the assignment of the patent
`
`rights from Allergan to the Tribe was valid in order to resolve the
`
`question whether to add the Tribe as a co-plaintiff. Instead, the Court
`
`will adopt the safer course of joining the Tribe as a co-plaintiff, while
`
`
`-1-
`
`
`
`leaving the question of the validity of the assignment to be decided in
`
`the IPR proceedings, where it is directly presented.”
`
`Id., Dkt. No. 522 (F.R.C.P. 25 Memorandum and Order) at 5, 9.
