`
`Dear Board,
`
`As an update to Patent Owner’s request below for a conference call regarding certain admissions by Petitioner Micron in the parallel litigation, the deposition transcript in
`question has now been unsealed. Therefore, Patent Owner no longer requires guidance for a motion to compel, but instead seeks leave to file a motion to submit the
`transcript as supplemental information under 36 CFR 42.123(a). The specific information relates to Micron’s testimony about the differences between AMB packets and
`signals, as identified in the original email below.

`
`Dear Honorable Board:
`
`Patent Owner disagrees with the argumentative nature and characterizations below, but will refrain from responding at this time in order to comply with PTAB rules against emailed
`arguments. Patent Owner looks forward to clarifying the record for the Board during the conference call.

`
`Your Honors,
`
`To clarify joined Petitioners’ (Micron) position regarding Patent Owner Netlist’s below email to the Board, counsel for Netlist sent an email (a different email than the below email sent to
`the Board) on Saturday, September 2, 2023 stating that it was going to unilaterally email the Board regarding issues that have yet to be discussed between Netlist and Micron. Micron
`responded with its availability for a meet and confer to understand the issues raised by Netlist’s Saturday email, as well as expressing Micron’s concerns with the substance of the email.
`Netlist did not respond, and instead emailed the Board. If the Board sets a conference time to discuss Netlist’s improper email, during that telephone conference, Micron will ask for
`clarification regarding the issues raised by Netlist’s emails.
`
`A copy of the email correspondence between Netlist and Micron prior to Netlist’s email to the Board is shown as follows:
`
`Respectfully,

`
`Dear Board,
`
`IPR2022-00996, IPR2022-00999
`Ex. 3005
`
`
`
`Page 3 of 3
`
`Patent Owner requests a conference call with the Board to disclose positions Micron has taken in the parallel district court proceeding which are inconsistent with positions it
`has taken in the above IPR proceedings which directly impact the merits of the IPR challenge. This information is contained in a deposition transcript of Micron’s corporate
`representative on technical matters relating to the 918/054 patents, and who discussed the difference between AMB packets and signals. This deposition did not occur until
`August 30. The next day Netlist asked for the relevant testimony be de-designated so that it can be used. Micron has improperly designated the transcript as confidential
`under the district court’s protective order, and therefore Patent Owner is unable to submit the information itself as supplemental information. Moreover, failure on Micron’s
`part to disclose this information is a direct non-compliance with its obligation to disclose inconsistent information under 36 CFR 42.51(b)(1). Netlist has made Micron aware
`of its concerns regarding compliance with 36 CFR 42.51(b)(1).
`
`Patent Owner respectfully requests a conference call with the Board to seek guidance on how to proceed including, if necessary, seeking leave to file a motion to compel
`discovery.
`
`The parties are available at the following time:
`
`•

`
`Wednesday, September 6, between 11:00am and 3:30pm Eastern
