`JOINT MOTION
`37 CFR §42.73(b)(4)
`
`
`
`
`On April 9, 2018, the Board sent an email directing the parties “to file a one-
`
`page motion jointly requesting entry of adverse judgement against Petitioner
`
`pursuant to that rule. That motion shall be filed within five (5) business days of
`
`this email and should indicate whether Patent Owner withdraws its pending request
`
`for reconsideration of the institution decision.” This joint motion complies with the
`
`Board’s direction.
`
`I.
`
`REQUEST FOR ADVERSE JUDGMENT
`
`The parties jointly request entry of adverse judgment against the petitioners,
`
`KVK-Tech, Inc. and Flat Line Capital, LLC, pursuant to 37 CFR §42.73(b)(4).
`
`II. REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION
`
`If this motion is granted and this post-grant review terminated, then the
`
`patent owner, Silvergate Pharmaceuticals, Inc., considers its request for rehearing
`
`to be moot and withdraws its request.
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,
