`first page of Ex. 1021 is available at the URL shown in the browser bar, i.e.,
`
`https://web.archive.org/web/20050405214343/http://www.fda.gov/cder/approval/in

`
`used by the Internet Archive, and how those URLs specify the date, hour, minute,

`
`Wyeth provided by the Internet Archive at Pages 56 to 82. See Butler Declaration
`
`(Page 29 of Ex. 1021) at ¶ 6. That URL (which is identical to the one discussed in
`
`Paragraph 9 of this declaration, supra) shows that this copy of Wyeth (like the one
`
`discussed in Paragraph 9 of this declaration, supra) was publicly available and
`
`accessible on the internet as of December 10, 2004 at 2:48AM and 09 seconds.
