United States Patent and Trademark Office Before UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE BEFORE THE PATENT TRIAL AND APPEAL BOARD SPRINT SPECTRUM L.P. Petitioner v. GENERAL ACCESS SOLUTIONS, LTD. Patent Owner Inter Partes Review Case No. 2017-01889 U.S. Patent No. 7,230,931 PETITIONER’S UPDATED MANDATORY DISCLOSURES Petitioner previously identified Sprint Spectrum L.P., Virgin Mobile USA, L.P., Boost Mobile, LLC, Clearwire Corporation, Clearwire Communications LLC, Clear Wireless LLC, and Sprint Corporation as real parties-in-interest. As a result of a series of corporate transactions, Petitioner hereby updates its real party-in- interest information for purposes of the remaining proceedings in this IPR on remand from the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, as shown below. Pursuant to this update, Petitioner identifies the following additional real parties-in-interest in addition to those previously identified: Assurance Wireless 1 84815668.1 USA, L.P., SprintCom, Inc., Sprint Communications, Inc., T-Mobile US, Inc., T- Mobile USA, Inc., and DISH Network Corporation. Previously identified Virgin Mobile USA, L.P. underwent a name change effective February 18, 2020 to change its name to Assurance Wireless USA, L.P. Effective in February 2020, Virgin Mobile brand subscribers were transferred to the Boost Mobile brand. Previously identified Boost Mobile LLC was dissolved in 2016 and its former subscribers were serviced by SprintCom, Inc. until on or about July 1, 2020. On June 11, 2020, SprintCom, Inc., and Assurance Wireless USA, L.P., were substituted as parties to the underlying infringement lawsuit in the Eastern District of Texas, now re-captioned under Case No. 2:20-cv-00007-RWS (E.D. Tex.), in place of Boost Mobile, LLC, and Virgin Mobile USA, L.P., respectively. As a result of a merger on April 1, 2020, Sprint Corporation is a wholly- owned subsidiary of T-Mobile USA, Inc. T-Mobile USA, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of T-Mobile US, Inc. Effective May 8, 2020, previously identified Clearwire Corporation was merged into Sprint Communications, Inc.

Petitioner’s identification of Sprint Corporation, T-Mobile US, Inc., T- Mobile USA, Inc., and DISH Network Corporation as real parties in interest for purposes of this proceeding only is out of an abundance of caution and only to the extent that Patent Owner contends that these separate legal entities should be named as real parties in interest in this IPR. Sprint Corporation, T-Mobile US, Inc., and T-Mobile USA, Inc. are legally and factually distinct entities from their subsidiaries. Each of T-Mobile USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries, including Sprint Spectrum L.P., maintains its own independent status, identity, and structure. Dated: July 8, 2020 Respectfully submitted, By: /Robert C.

  • The Town of Willington's Permitting System Requires Applicants to Have
    Town of Willington Land Use and Building Department Willington Town Office Building 40 Old Farms Road Willington, CT 06279 The Town of Willington’s permitting system requires applicants to have a valid email address to apply for permits, receive approvals and other permit documents. This is also the primary contact point for communicating to an applicant regarding building inspections or additional information needed during the permit review process. This email address not only allows the applicant to communicate directly with department staff, but it also allows Town staff to transmit permit documents, approvals and certificates directly to the applicant. The Town of Willington does not mail paper copies of permit approvals and/or certificates. If you do not have an email address, but do have a mobile phone that is capable of receiving text messages, that can be used in lieu of a traditional email address.. Every wireless carrier in America allows emails to be sent as text messages to a mobile phone (standard text messaging rates will apply). The only information you need is the phone number and the wireless carrier. The mobile email address for each carrier is listed below: T-Mobile [10-digit phone number]@tmomail.net Example: [email protected] AT&T Wireless (formerly Cingular) [10-digit phone number]@txt.att.net Example: [email protected] Verizon [10-digit-number]@vtext.com Example: [email protected] Boost Mobile [10-digit phone number] @sms.myboostmobile.com Example: [email protected] Cricket Wireless [10-digit phone number]@sms.mycricket.com Example: [email protected] Town of Willington Land Use and Building Department Willington Town Office Building 40 Old Farms Road Willington, CT 06279 Sprint [10-digit phone number]@messaging.sprintpcs.com Example: [email protected] Tracfone or Straight Talk The address varies.
