`
`
`
`Contingent Motion Under 37 C.F.R. § 42.221 to Amend
`
`Case CBM2012-00001
`Patent 6,553,350
`Attorney Docket No: 4117-101
`
`
`
`
`2.
`
`Versata may move to amend one or more of the involved claims of the ‘350
`
`patent, and will request entry of the claim amendments contingent upon the PTAB
`
`issuing a final decision maintaining the claim construction set forth in the
`
`Decision. Any such claim amendments will be made to respond to one or more of
`
`the grounds of unpatentability involved in the trial, and will not enlarge the scope
`
`of the claims of the ‘350 patent (37 C.F.R. § 42.221(a)(2)(i)) or introduce new
`
`matter (37 C.F.R. § 42.221(a)(2)(ii)). Specifically, such claim amendments may be
`
`directed to the terms “pricing types,” “pricing adjustments,” “pricing information”
`
`and “denormalized numbers,” the meaning of which was addressed by the PTAB
`
`in the Decision at 11-17.
