Dear Judge Farnan:
We write on behalf of Defendant and Counterclaimant Aruba Networks, inc. ("Aruba") in
the aboveweferenced matter,. Aruba today tiled a Motion for Leave to Amend Its Answer and for
Leave to File Counterclaims Against Motorola, inc. (the "Motion"). Aruba seeks leave to assert
two of its own patents against the Plaintiffs, and to join their parent, Motorola, as a counterclaim
defendant. Accompanying the Motion was Aruba's Notice of Motion, which scheduled the
motion to be heard on the Court's next norndispositive motion date, ia., September i2, .2008.
Given the significance of the issues in the Motion, Aruba writes to respectfully request
Your Honor schedule a hearing on its Motion for a date within the next few weeks. The primary
reason for our request is that quick resolution of this issue will deiine the parties in the action and
the patents-at—issue early in the case, would enable the parties to proceed on all issues now, and
would avoid any risk that the parties or the Court would need to duplicate efforts later.
Accordingly, Aruba respectfully requests the Court schedule a hearing on the Motion at
the earliest possible date convenient to the Court and counsel. Should Your Honor have any
questions or concerns regarding the Motion or the foregoing request, counsel are available at the
Court’s convenience.
Respectfully,
/r/ Frederic/c L. Cottrell, IH
