`
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.8, the undersigned, on behalf of the
`
`Patent Owner, the United States of America (Government), hereby submits the
`
`following mandatory notices, in connection with the above-referenced Inter Partes
`
`Review.
`
`I.
`
`
`
`REAL PARTY IN INTEREST
`
`The United States of America is the owner of the entire right, title and
`
`interest in United States Patent No. 7,030,971 by assignment from the inventor,
`
`and is therefore the real party in interest. Its Department of the Navy is the agency
`
`that sought and obtained the patent on behalf of the Government.
`
`II. RELATED MATTERS
`
`
`
`United States Patent No. 7,030,971 is currently involved in litigation
`
`brought by the exclusive licensee of the Government, captioned Adelos, Inc. v.
`
`Halliburton Co. et al., Case No. 9:16-cv-119-DLC (D. Mont.) (the “District Court
`
`Litigation”). Adelos, Inc. is the exclusive licensee of the government for United
`
`States Patent No. 7,030,971, and brought the District Court Litigation under the
`
`right of enforcement granted to it under the terms of its license and 35 U.S.C.
`
`§207(a)(2). The Patent Owner is also aware of two related Inter Partes Review
`
`petitions: IPR2017-2107, filed by Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., challenging
`
`- 1 -

`

`

`Services, Inc., challenging related U.S. Patent No. 7,268,863.

`
`IV. POWER OF ATTORNEY
`
`
`
`No power of attorney is required of patent owner’s counsel. The patent is
`
`owned by the United States of America. Lead Counsel and Back-up Counsel are
`
`attorneys for the United States Department of Justice. By law, the Attorney
`
`General may select employees of the Department of Justice “to attend to the
`
`interests of the United States in a suit pending in a court of the United States, or in
`
`a court of a State, or to attend to any other interest of the United States.” 28 U.S.C.
`
`§ 517. These proceedings constitute an “other interest of the United States” for
`
`which counsel has been duly designated to represent the interests of the United
`
`States.
