`
`BEFORE THE PATENT TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD
`
`TCL INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS CO., INC.,
`Petitioner,
`
`v.
`
`ATI TECHNOLOGIES ULC
`Patent Owner.
`
`Case No. IPR2024-00366
`U.S. Patent No. 8,760,454
`
`PATENT OWNER’S RESPONSE
`TO PETITIONER’S MOTION FOR JOINDER
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2024-00366
`U.S. Patent No. 8,760,454
`
`On January 2, 2024, Petitioner filed a Motion for Joinder seeking joinder of
`
`the present proceeding with Realtek Semiconductor Corp. v. ATI Technologies ULC,
`
`Case No. IPR2023-00922. Patent Owner does not oppose joinder of these
`
`proceedings, under the conditions set forth in Petitioner’s motion, in which
`
`Petitioner agrees to an “understudy” role, and the additional constraints that, as long
`
`as Realtek remains a party:
`
`TCL will not rely on expert testimony beyond that submitted by Realtek;
`
`TCL will not separately file or serve objections or discovery requests, will not
`
`receive separate cross examination or redirect time, and will not separately cross
`
`examine or redirect any witness;
`
`TCL will not file substantive papers;
`
`TCL agrees that Realtek will make all final decisions and will retain
`
`responsibility for oral argument (including telephone hearings and appeals);
`
`and TCL will not seek or receive separate time and will not separately argue
`
`during oral argument, including telephone hearings and appeals.
`
`Patent Owner believes these conditions are in keeping with Petitioner’s
`
`representation that it will agree to an understudy role, and are conditions that the
`
`Board has found to be proper in these circumstances. See, e.g., Keysight
`
`Technologies, Inc. v. Centripetal Networks, Inc., IPR2022-01199, Paper 13 at 62.
