Having reviewed the parties‟ Joint Statement Regarding Staying Causes of Action,
and pursuant to agreement by all parties and for good cause shown, and subject to the exceptions
set forth in this Order, all proceedings concerning Count III of the First Amended Complaint
(infringement of the „105 patent (Dkt. No. 170 ¶¶ 54-60)), and all proceedings concerning the
Third through Sixth Claims for Relief in the Amended Answer and Counterclaims of Defendants
PharmaTech Solutions, Inc. and Decision Diagnostics Corp. (Dkt. No. 346 ¶¶ 70-96), are hereby
stayed pending a final decision by the Patent Trials and Appeals Board (“PTAB”) in the pending
inter partes review (“IPR”) of U.S. Patent No. 7,250,105 (the “„105 Patent”). When the PTAB
issues a final decision in the IPR concerning the „105 Patent, the Court, on the request of any
party, may consider whether the stay provided in this paragraph should, or should not, continue
during the pendency of any appeals from that final decision.

If the Federal Circuit affirms the preliminary injunction in this case (Dkt. No.
