`CAUTION: This email has originated from a source outside of USPTO. PLEASE CONSIDER THE SOURCE before

`
`Honorable Board,
`
`Petitioner Apple Inc. respectfully submits this email in response to Patent Owner’s email
`requesting permission to file requests for adverse judgment under 37 C.F.R. 42.73 in
`IPR2024-00232 and IPR2024-00775 and to lift the stay in EPR 90/015,052.
`
`Petitioner Apple agrees to Patent Owner's request for adverse judgment in IPR2024-
`00232 and does not oppose Patent Owner’s request to lift the stay in EPR 90/015,052.
` Should the Board grant adverse judgment in IPR2024-00232, Petitioner Apple
`respectfully requests that pursuant to 37 C.F.R. 42.73(c) the Board include in its
`judgment a recommendation to the Examiner in EPR 90/015,052 to consider whether the
`Patent Owner should be estopped under 37 C.F.R. 42.73(d)(3)(1) from “taking action
`inconsistent with the adverse judgment, including obtaining in any patent … [a] claim
`that is not patentably distinct from a finally refused or canceled claim.”
`
`Should the Board feel a conference call is necessary, the parties will provide a list of
`mutually agreeable times.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
