Dear Gerald:

Plaintiff, PDL BioPhara, Inc., provides the following list of claim term or phrases for, absent agreement by the paries, construction by the Court with respect to the asserted claim ofPDL's U.S. Patents Nos. 5,693,761,5,693,762, and 6,180,370.
PDL's investigation is ongoing and the defendant, Alexion

Pharmaceuticals, Inc., has not yet disclosed to PDL its list of term and claim elements

for construction. In addition, and in violation of an agreement between the paries,
defendant has failed to identify with any sort of reasonable specificity its invalidity contentions. Accordingly, PDL reserves its right to supplement, amend, or modify this disclosure.
1. "acceptor immunoglobulin";
2. "complementarity determning regions (CDRs) from a (the) donor

immunoglobulin" ;

[email protected] 03/17/2008 12:25 PM To [email protected] cc Subject Re: PDL v. Alexion

Dear Gerald--I will as you ask pass on your request to PDL. During our conversation, you agreed with my observation that were PDL to agree to the stipulation that you request, that would certainly moot the pending motion to dismiss with respect to the unasserted claims. I also pointed out that, there being no case or controversy between the parties with respect to the unasserted claims, PDL should not have to stipulate to Alexion's non-infringement of the claims of the three patents-in-suit that have yet to be specifically asserted by PDL; Alexion has to demonstrate a case or controversy. You disagreed. I will get back to you, likely tomorrow, on this. Best regards, Vern.

Dear Vern: Thanks for talking this morning about PDL's pending motion to dismiss Alexion's counterclaim of invalidity as to "unasserted claims." I asked you whether PDL would be willing to stipulate to Alexion's non-infringement of the claims of the three patents-in-suit that have yet to be specifically asserted by PDL. I would be grateful if PDL would consider that question and get back to us with an answer in the next day or two.

----- Original Message ----From: vern.winters Sent: 03/20/2008 10:25 AM MST To: Gerald Flattmann Jr Subject: Re: PDL v. Alexion

Dear Gerald: We write in response to Alexion's request that PDL BioPharma stipulate that Alexion does not infringe claims that PDL has not asserted, which you correctly refer to as the "unasserted claims." The request is not appropriate. PDL has not asserted the unasserted claims against Alexion, and there is no case or controversy between the parties with respect to those claims. Best regards, Vern
