`JOINT NOTICE OF STIPULATION CONCERNING JOINDER
`
`

`
`Case IPR 2016-01393
`Patent 7,772,209
`Three petitions for inter partes review have been filed seeking to join
`
`IPR2016-00318: IPR2016-01429 (filed by Apotex Inc., Apotex Corp., Emcure
`
`Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Heritage Pharma Labs Inc., Heritage Pharmaceuticals Inc.,
`
`Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Inc., USA, Glenmark Holding SA, Glenmark
`
`Pharmaceuticals Ltd., and Mylan Laboratories Ltd.); IPR2016-01340 (filed by
`
`Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. and Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC); and IPR2016-
`
`01393 (filed by Wockhardt Bio AG). The Board held an initial telephonic
`
`conference in IPR2016-00318 on July 22, 2016, in which the petitioners in
`
`IPR2016-01429 and IPR2016-01340 participated. During that conference, the
`
`Board encouraged the parties to meet and confer regarding conditions for an
`
`agreed-upon joinder. The Petitioners in IPR2016-01429, IPR2016-01340, and
`
`IPR2016-01393 (collectively, the “Joinder Petitioners”), Petitioner Sandoz, Inc.
`
`(“Sandoz” or “Lead Petitioner”), and Patent Owner Eli Lilly and Company
`
`(“Lilly”) have conferred. Sandoz has indicated that it consents to joinder by the
`
`Joinder Petitioners and has no objection to Lilly and the Joinder Petitioners’
`
`submission of this stipulation. Lilly and the Joinder Petitioners hereby stipulate
`
`and agree as follows:
`
`1.
`
`Lilly will not oppose the joinder of Joinder Petitioners to IPR2016-
`
`00318 (the “Joined Proceeding”).
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`
`Case IPR 2016-01393
`Patent 7,772,209
`Lilly waives its right to file a Patent Owner Preliminary Response in
`
`2.
`
`IPR2016-01429, IPR2016-01340, and IPR2016-01393.
`
`3.
`
`So long as Lead Petitioner is not terminated as a party, Lead Petitioner
`
`will retain control over petitioners’ side of the Joined Proceeding, will conduct all
`
`argument and examination of witnesses for that side, and will submit all
`
`substantive written submissions for that side. Joinder Petitioners will act as silent
`
`understudies in the proceedings, and thus will not (1) file any papers or exhibits in
`
`the Joined Proceeding, except for pro hac vice motions, updated mandatory
`
`notices, and similar administrative filings that do not constitute argument or
`
`evidence relating to the merits; (2) serve objections or discovery requests in
`
`connection with the Joined Proceeding; however, these restrictions do not apply to
`
`any discovery requests Lilly may serve on a Joinder Petitioner; (3) participate in
`
`the questioning of any witness or the defense of any witness deposition in the
`
`Joined Proceeding; (4) participate in a speaking role in any telephonic conference
`
`before the Board in the Joined Proceeding; or (5) participate in oral argument in
`
`the Joined Proceeding. Joinder Petitioners may, however, attend all depositions,
`
`telephonic conferences, and oral argument in the Joined Proceeding, and will be
`
`served with all papers and exhibits served by Lead Petitioner on Patent Owner or
`
`by Patent Owner on Lead Petitioner. Notwithstanding the above, Joinder
`
`Petitioners may speak or otherwise respond if there is an argument, question, or
`
`
`
`3
`
`

`
`Case IPR 2016-01393
`Patent 7,772,209
`inquiry directed specifically to one or more Joinder Petitioners, or that is about one
`
`or more Joinder Petitioners specifically or the position of one or more Joinder
`
`Petitioners specifically.
`
`4.
`
`The parties agree that the arguments and evidence presented in
`
`Joinder Petitioners’ petitions is duplicative of the arguments and evidence
`
`presented in Lead Petitioner’s petition. The Joined Petitioners agree to proceed in
`
`the instant IPR based only upon the arguments and evidence advanced by Lead
`
`Petitioner.
`
`5.
`
`The presence of Joinder Petitioners in the Joined Proceeding shall not
`
`be a basis for any alteration of the schedule, nor shall Joinder Petitioners be
`
`allocated time or otherwise affect the times allocated for cross-examination,
`
`redirect, or re-cross examination of any witness.
`
`6.
`
`In the event that Lead Petitioner is terminated from the Joined
`
`Proceeding by settlement or for any other reason, the remaining parties agree to
`
`confer in good faith regarding a fair and efficient framework for completing the
`
`remainder of the Joined Proceeding, including whether the submission of
`
`additional expert declarations from Joinder Petitioners (such as in the event that
`
`Lead Petitioner’s expert is unavailable to the Joinder Petitioners) is necessary.
