The Court of Appeal permitted Washtower's withdrawal of its application for provisional measures under R. 265 RoP and declared the proceedings closed. Washtower agreed to bear the costs of both first and second instance of the provisional measures proceedings. The Court also determined the value in dispute at 66% of the value of a permanent injunction, in accordance with the Court of Appeal's guidelines on cost ceilings for provisional measure proceedings not followed by a merits action.

Court of Appeal (Judge-Rapporteur) granted Appellants' request for a two-week extension of the time limit for lodging their Statement of Grounds of Appeal, from 26 September 2025 to 10 October 2025, citing the exceptional circumstance that both lead attorney and lead patent attorney were unavailable due to professional constraints including an EPO oral hearing.
