`Patent 7,016,676
`Petitioner, Microsoft Corporation, hereby files this updated mandatory notice
`
`pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.8.
`
`I.
`
`REAL PARTY-IN-INTEREST (37 C.F.R. § 42.8 (b)(1))
`In its Petition, Microsoft included the following statement in its statement on
`
`real party-in-interest (“RPI”):
`
`Microsoft notes that in the related district court litigation,
`patent owner accuses Microsoft of infringement based on
`its use of a component Microsoft obtained from Marvell
`Semiconductor. Microsoft has requested
`defense/indemnity from Marvell, and Marvell has refused
`to defend/indemnify Microsoft.
`
`Microsoft submits this update to its mandatory notices to advise the Board as
`
`follows:
`
`•
`
`On July 16, 2019, Marvell agreed to retain a law firm to enter an
`
`appearance in the litigation on behalf of Microsoft to assist Microsoft
`
`with the defense of that matter with respect to U.S. Patent 7,016,676 to
`
`the extent any allegations are against Microsoft products containing
`
`Marvell components. In doing so, Marvell maintains that IPR
`
`proceedings are outside the scope of the indemnity provisions in the
`
`Marvell-Microsoft Agreement and that Marvell is not responsible for
`
`Petitioner’s Updated Mandatory Notice

`Patent 7,016,676
`costs and/or fees incurred by counsel retained by Microsoft relating to
`
`Microsoft’s IPR proceedings.
`
`•
`
`•
`
`Marvell still maintains that Microsoft's claim for indemnity falls
`
`outside the scope of their agreement.
`
`On August 5, 2019, Marvell-designated counsel entered an appearance
`
`on Microsoft’s behalf in that litigation.

`Respectfully submitted,
