`
`Challenging invalid patents instead of paying for expensive licenses has proved to be the most cost-effective and
`successful way to stop unreasonable assertions. Unlike other third-party solutions, we don't monetize transactions by
`paying. In fact, we never pay. Ever.
`
`Unified has filed more patent challenges than all other third-party petitioners combined. Unified was the #6 most
`prolific all time PTAB petitioner and #3 for 2019. Moreover, we have successfully neutralized more patents than any
`other third-party.
`
`OVERALL SUCCESS RATE
`
`“Success” is defined as a positive institution decision, invalidation, or no money settlement by Unified. The outcome of
`each case was determined as of the latest available status such that no case is counted more than once. Visit Unified’s
`Portal for more information.
`
`UNIFIED IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL THIRD-PARTY
`SOLUTION
`
`Unified has developed a reputation for challenging anyone and the only third-party to have challenged the largest and
`most notorious NPEs, including General Patent Corporation , Intellectual Ventures , IP Edge , Uniloc , Marathon , Acacia ,
`and others. In contrast, other third-parties have developed a close and symbiotic working relationship with the NPEs
`they purportedly seek to deter, resulting in more frivolous litigation.

`
`Unified has expanded its efforts with over a dozen re-examinations and several foreign opposition filings.
`
`WHAT SETS UNIFIED APART
`
`Challenge Early - To disrupt monetization campaigns before valuable resources are wasted
`
`Challenge Anyone - Regardless of an entity’s size and unconflicted by commercial relationships
`
`Refuse to Pay - To ensure that we never encourage future assertions
`
`Refuse to Incentivize - Unlike some third-parties, our settlements never include provisions which encourage
`going after others
`
`Act Independently - As the sole real-party and never as a proxy
`
`Educate Licensors - To ensure they know that low quality patents will be challenged
`
`Buying licenses to invalid patents should be, at best, an absolute last resort. While paying may be expedient in the
`short term, it rewards the assertion of low quality patents and, thus, encourages more predatory activity in the future.
`Further, it is impossible to purchase all of the low quality patents. The unfortunate fact is that with millions of granted
`U.S. patents, there is an abundant supply of low quality assets available for assertion.
`
`Unified exists to break the cycle of patent assertion. We never have, and never will, pay because we aim to stop, not
`promote, frivolous patent litigation.

`
`
`
`When Unified settles, we do so only in exchange for royalty-free licenses. This is an unqualified success and it deters
`future litigation. The same isn’t true when our competitors pay for licenses or purchase patents. These payments
`perpetuate the cycle of litigation and, moreover, create an inherent conflict of interest because entities that participate
`in the patent marketplace may be tempted to fan the flames they are paid to extinguish. Unified faces no such conflict
`because we have no financial relationships with asserters.
