UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON INTERVAL LICENSING LLC, Plaintiff, No. 2:10-CV-01385-MJP DEFENDANT APPLE INC.'S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION TO DISMISS FOR FAILURE TO STATE A CLAIM UPON WHICH RELIEF CAN BE GRANTED PURSUANT TO FED. R. CIV. P. 12(B)(6) NOTE ON MOTION CALENDAR: November 12, 2010

Defendant Apple Inc. ("Apple") submits this Reply in support of its Motion To Dismiss For Failure To State A Claim Upon Which Relief Can Be Granted Pursuant To Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6). (Docket No. 80.) In the interest of expeditiously disposing of or managing this case, Apple hereby joins in Google Inc. and YouTube LLC's (collectively, "Google") Reply In Support Of Their Motion To Dismiss For Failure To State A Claim Upon Which Relief Can Be Granted Pursuant To Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) (Docket No. 130), and incorporates by reference the authority and arguments presented therein. Specifically, Plaintiff's Complaint makes the same insufficient allegations against Apple that it makes against Google, and APPLE'S REPLY ISO ITS MOTION TO DISMISS NO. 2:10-CV-01385-MJP ­ Page 1

thus Plaintiff's arguments in its Opposition (Docket No. 123) fail against Apple for the same general reasons that they fail against Google. Accordingly, based on the incorporated authority and arguments as well as the analysis in Apple's original motion, Apple requests that the Court dismiss Interval's Complaint against Apple.
