`Petitioner bears the ultimate burden of proof that Patent Owner’s claims at
`issue are unpatentable. Therefore, at final hearing, Petitioner will proceed first to
`present its case with regard to the challenged claims and grounds on the basis of
`which the Board instituted trial. Thereafter, the Patent Owner will respond to
`Petitioner’s presentation. After that, Petitioner will make use of the remainder of
`its time to address Patent Owner’s responsive presentation.
`The hearing will commence at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, on February 26,
`2014, and it will be open to the public for in-person attendance, on the ninth floor
`of Madison Building East, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria, Virginia. In-person
`attendance will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis.
`The Board will provide a court reporter for the hearing and the reporter’s
`transcript will constitute the official record of the hearing.
`Under 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(b), demonstrative exhibits must be served five
`business days prior to the hearing. They shall be filed at the Board two business
`days prior to the hearing, and the parties must initiate a conference call with the
`Board by two business days prior to the hearing to resolve any dispute over the
`propriety of each party’s demonstrative exhibits. The parties are directed to
`IPR2013-00033, Paper 118 (October 23, 2013) regarding the appropriate content
`of demonstrative exhibits.
`The Board expects lead counsel for each party to be present at the hearing,
`although any backup counsel may make the actual presentation, in whole or in part.
`If any lead counsel will not be in attendance at the hearing, the Board should be
`notified via a joint telephone conference call no later than two days prior to the
`hearing to discuss the matter.
