`JOINT REQUEST TO TREAT SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AS
`BUSINESS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION PURSUANT TO 35 U.S.C. §
`317
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 IPR2020-01252 has been joined with this proceeding.
`
`

`

`Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 317(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c), Petitioner Mylan
`
`Institutional LLC (“Mylan”) and Patent Owner Novo Nordisk A/S (“Patent Owner”)
`
`jointly request that a true copy of their Settlement Agreement, filed concurrently as
`
`Exhibit 2098, be treated as business confidential information, and be kept separate
`
`from the file of IPR2020-00324 involving U.S. Patent No. 8,114,833. Concurrently
`
`with this Request, Mylan and Patent Owner are filing a Joint Motion to Terminate
`
`as to Petitioner Mylan due to the settlement between Mylan and Patent Owner.
`
`Specifically, as the parties consider the Settlement Agreement to contain
`
`highly sensitive business confidential information that would substantially harm
`
`their business interests if publicly disclosed, Mylan and Patent Owner hereby jointly
`
`request that the Settlement Agreement be kept as a separate paper to be made
`
`available only as provided in 35 U.S.C. § 317(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74(c). The
`
`Settlement Agreement has been filed for access by the “Board Only.”2 Mylan and
`
`Patent Owner request that the Settlement Agreement remain accessible only to the
`
`Board, and not be made available to other parties to this proceeding. Mylan and
`
`Patent Owner further jointly request that the Board order that in the event a person
`
`or entity makes a written request, as stated in 37 C.F.R. §42.74(c)(1)-(2), for access
`
`to the Settlement Agreement, that any such written request be served upon Mylan
`
`
`2 Petitioner Pfizer Inc. is not a party to the Settlement Agreement. Petitioner Pfizer
`Inc. has not been provided a copy of the Settlement Agreement.
`1
`
`
`
`

`

`and Patent Owner on the day the written request is provided to the Board.
