`
`Re: IPR2017‐00854 and IPR2017‐01550
`
`To the Patent Trial and Appeal Board:
`
`
`We represent Patent Owner Novartis in these IPRs. We write to inform the Board that Novartis
`does not object to Argentum’s Motion for Joinder of IPR2017‐01550 with now‐instituted
`IPR2017‐00854, as Argentum’s Petition in the 01550 IPR is substantively the same as the
`Petition in the 00854 IPR, and Argentum has agreed not to pursue any arguments or make any
`filings separate from those made by the Petitioner in the 00854 IPR. We accordingly
`respectfully request that the Board grant Argentum’s joinder motion, and Novartis hereby
`agrees not to submit any Preliminary Response to Argentum’s Petition. Novartis instead will
`proceed with a Patent Owner Response to the Petitions in both IPRs simultaneously.
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`Jane Love (Lead Counsel) and Robert Trenchard (Backup Counsel)
