`Re:
`
`XR Communications, LLC v. HP Inc., et al., Case No. 6:21-cv-00694 (W.D. Tex.)
`
`Dear Counsel:
`
`HP Inc. (“HP”) has filed an inter partes review (IPR) petition (IPR2022-00367) with the Patent
`Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) to address the validity of claims 8-14 of U.S. Patent No.
`10,715,235. The tables in attached Appendix A list all the grounds, challenged claims, and
`references asserted in IPR2022-00367.
`
`I write to inform you that HP hereby stipulates that:
`
`if the PTAB institutes IPR2022-00367 based on the grounds and claims listed in the
`tables in Appendix A, HP will not pursue in the District Court the specific grounds raised
`in IPR2022-00367 against claims 8-14.
`
`In so stipulating, HP seeks to avoid multiple proceedings addressing the validity of the
`challenged claims based on the same grounds. Rather, through this stipulation, HP expresses its
`intention to have only the PTAB address the Instituted Grounds of invalidity of these
`claims. But, for the sake of clarity and to avoid any doubt, if the PTAB declines to institute any
`of the grounds identified herein, HP reserves the right to assert the denied grounds in the
`litigation. HP also reserves its rights to continue to assert grounds other than the Instituted
`Grounds.
`
`Sincerely,
`
`Aamir Kazi
`
`cc: Counsel of record
