`U.S. Patent No. 7,412,416
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70 and the Board’s December 1, 2016
`
`Scheduling Order (Paper 12), Petitioners respectfully request oral argument, which
`
`is currently scheduled for August 10, 2017, on the issues raised in the Petition for
`
`Inter Partes Review of U.S. Patent 7,412,416 (“the ’416 patent”), Patent Owner’s
`
`Response, and Petitioners’ Reply to Patent Owner’s Response.
`
`The issues to be argued are:
`
`• The construction of certain terms of the ’416 patent;
`
`• The instituted grounds of unpatentability, namely:
`
`o whether claims 1-24 of the ’416 patent are directed to
`patent-ineligible subject matter under 35 U.S.C. § 101; and
`
`o whether claims 2 and 15 of the ’416 patent are unpatentable
`under 35 U.S.C. § 112 ¶ 4;
`
`• Any issues identified in Patent Owner’s Request for Oral Argument;
`
`• Rebuttal to Patent Owner’s presentation on all matters;
`
`• Any other issues raised in papers filed in this proceeding, including
`
`issues raised in papers yet to be filed, such as Motions to Exclude; and
`
`• Any other outstanding motions and pleadings, and other issues that
`
`the Board deems necessary for issuing a Final Written Decision.
