`Paul:
`
`As we stated in prior communica4on, the Patent Owner Response ONLY cites Dr. Eas?om’s
`declara4on (EX2001 ¶¶ 8-9) for the sole proposi4on that “a POSITA would understand that the
`en4ty intercep4ng a message would not be one of the intended recipients of that message.” Our
`posi4on is that it would be a waste of the par4es resources to schedule a deposi4on that, under
`the rules, must be restricted to that sole proposi4on. Indeed, Pe44oner has not indicated
`whether that straighTorward proposi4on is even disputed. Please do so. Given your insistence in
`scheduling a deposi4on, we can only assume that you intend to expand the scope of the
`deposi4on beyond what the rules allow. Please clarify your posi4on as to the scope and the
`authority in support of your posi4on. Alterna4vely, and in the interest of compromise, we would
`not be opposed to you submiXng a limited number of interrogatory ques4ons directed to the
`single proposi4on for which the declara4on is cited.
`
`Regards,
`Bre?

`PuXng this back to the top of your inbox. Please let us know Uniloc’s posi4on.
`
`To the extent we do not hear from you on this issue, your silence will be interpreted as
`confirma4on that (1) you will not provide Dr. Eas?om for cross examina4on and (2) you will not
`oppose a mo4on to strike his declara4on and any references or cita4ons thereto following the

`In IPR2018-00884, Pe44oner Apple respecTully requests permission to
`file an Unopposed Mo4on to Strike under 37 CFR 42.5(a) and 42.20(a).
`Specifically, the Pe44oner seeks to strike the Eas?om Declara4on
`(Exhibit 2001) and all references or cita4ons to the declara4on in any
`filing as an alterna4ve to making the declarant available for cross-
`examina4on. Pe44oner and Patent Owner have conferred, and Patent
`Owner indicates that they do not oppose the mo4on.
`
`If needed, Pe44oner and Patent Owner are available for a Board call on
`Monday or Tuesday next week (2/25 or 2/26) between 11:00am and
`3pm EDT.

`We’ve had a chance to confer with our client, and we
`agree that an unopposed mo4on to strike Dr. Eas?om’s
`declara4on and any references or cita4ons thereto is an
