`
`113112.11 1.411.111.2118 Wt'fmid not be unduly complicated because joi‘nder would not
`
`introduce any new claims or grounds of" unpatentability. Moreover, neither 35
`
`1.1.31.1 § 31. 1 nor § 315(c) requires a petition in a joinder situation to be limited to
`
`identical issues, much less identical evidence. See, e.g., 11911201300282 Paper 15,
`
`p. 4 (joinder granted Where second petition. introduced two new pieces of prior art
`
`evidence (emphasis added.)). The proper question is the impact of any additional
`
`issues or evidence. The impact of Dr. Clark’s declaration on the existing proceeding is
`
`demonstrably minimal for at least four reasons.
`
`First, Arendi’s own admissions and actions show that the impact of Dr.
`
`Clark’s declaration at most is likely nothing more than a single day deposition of Dr.
`
`Clark, and can perhaps be avoided altogether based on the declaration’s substantive
`
`similarity to that of Dr. Menascé. Arendi effectively concedes this point in asserting

`the present proceeding, and confirms there is sufficient time to complete the

`
`l 1;
`
`Paper ’7, p, 5 in IPRZO'i 4-0l 143 and Paper 7 , p. 5 in li’RZOl 44) l 144.
`
`Second, contrary to Arendi’s assertion on page ll), no additional testimony
`
`from Arendiis witnesses would be required Samsong has agreed to a process with
`
`the petitioners (“Apple/Google”) by which Apple/(Boogie will ask questions first in
`
`any deposition of Arendi’s expert(s), and Samsung would. ask. questions only if any
`
`time remained within the allotted timeframe. Thus, there will be very little if any
`
`additional testimony required.
`
`Thirdt Arendi cannot be prejudiced by evidence it contends “falls outside the
`
`scope ot‘z’nrer panes review.” Opposition, p. 5. Arendi contends that “Ground I
`
`relies upon the purported personal knowledge of Samsung’s expert, Dr. Paul Clark.”
`
`[at If Arendi’s contention is correct, then they have no need to depose Dr. Clark on
`
`the alleged impermissible testimony, and no prejudice arises. Arendi has a full and
`
`fair opportunity to present its arguments about any alleged improper ground in the
`
`Patent Owner Preliminary Response, a proposition with which Arendi apparently

`
`any such filings will. not exceed, seven pages. Thus, there will be very little if any
`
`additional briefing papers for Arendi or the PTAB to review and act upon.
`
`Finally, Arendi‘s argument about‘exhibit numbering” is misplaced at best In
`
`the cited Art/11px case (IPRZO l. 3-00632; Opposition, pp. 3, 12—13,), the petitions in the
`
`two proceedings were filed by the same‘petitioner, which is Clearly not the case here.
`
`Sa‘msung respectfully submits that should the Board request that its exhibits be
`
`renumbered to match those in the Apple/Google proceedings, it will do so.
`
`Joinder to IPR20‘14—00208 will introduce no new grounds of unpatentability,
`
`and will not unduly complicate or delay that proceeding. Therefore, joinder is
`
`appropriate, and Samsung requests that its Motion be granted and trial instituted.
