ORDER AWARDING

ATTORNEYS’ FEES

On April 15, 2005, this Court entered an Order resolving the parties’ motions for summary

judgment on the issue of ownership and Dr. White’s Motion to Strike Medtronic’s First Amended

Complaint. Although the Court denied the latter motion, it ordered that Medtronic pay Dr. White’s

attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with preparing and filing the motion to strike.

The Court has received the Declaration of Hugh Abrams Regarding Billing Records for

Motion to Strike, dated April 29, 2005, and, having reviewed the declaration, concludes that the

attorneys’ fees sought are reasonable.
