`Ex. 3001
`
`

`

`Dear Honorable Board:
`
`On behalf of Petitioner Aristocrat in IPR2022-00408 and -00409, we write to inform the Board that
`Patent Owner NexRF has agreed not to oppose Petitioner’s motions for joinder (to IPR2021-00951
`and -00953 respectively), based on the parties’ agreement below on additional “understudy”
`conditions.
`
`Therefore, it is our understanding that Aristocrat’s joinder motions are not opposed by any parties to
`the -00408, -00409, -00951, or -00953 proceedings. If the Board would like to conduct a conference
`call about this, we will make ourselves available.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`David Garr

`
`
`Counsel,
`
`We write regarding Aristocrat’s Motion for Joinder. Aristocrat has agreed to five of the eight
`“understudy” conditions outlined in Ericsson v Uniloc, IPR2020-00376, Paper 16 at 10 (22 May
`2020). We would like to know if Aristocrat would agree to adhere to the other three Ericsson
`conditions (Nos. 3-5) listed below. Those are:
`
`
`Aristocrat must obtain prior Board authorization to file any paper or to take any action on its
`
`

`

`own in the joined proceeding;
`Aristocrat shall not be permitted to raise any new grounds not already instituted by the
`Board, or introduce any new argument or discovery not already introduced by Playtika;
`Aristocrat shall be bound by any agreements between Patent Owner and Playtika concerning
`discovery and/or depositions.
`
`
`If your client has reservations or concerns about agreeing to any of these conditions, please let us
`know the reasons why.
`
`Best,
`
`Chris
