`

`

`
`
`Petitioner does not believe oral argument is necessary in this proceeding. To
`
`the extent the Board grants Patent Owner’s Request (Paper No. 24), Petitioner
`
`requests oral argument and, pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, specifies the following
`
`issues to be argued:
`
`
`
`I.
`
`Invalidity
`
`A. Are Claims 1-3, 5-8, 12, and 13 unpatentable under U.S.C. §
`
`103(a) over the combination of Lehr, Cockrell, and Kristiansen?
`
`B. Are Claims 4 and 9-11 unpatentable under U.S.C. § 103(a) over
`
`the combination of Lehr, Cockrell, Kristiansen, and Slup?
`
`C. Are Claims 14 and 16 unpatentable under U.S.C. § 103(a) over
`
`the combination of Lehr, Cockrell, Kristiansen, and Streich;
`
`D.
`
`Is Claim 15 unpatentable under U.S.C. § 103(a) over the
`
`combination of Lehr, Cockrell, Kristiansen, Streich, and
`
`McKeachnie?
`
`E. Are Claims 17-19 unpatentable under U.S.C. § 103(a) over the
`
`combination of Lehr, Cockrell, Kristiansen, Slup, and Streich?
`
`F.
`
`Is Claim 20 unpatentable under U.S.C. § 103(a) over the
`
`combination of Lehr, Cockrell, Kristiansen, Slup, Streich, and
`
`McKeachnie?
`
`
`
`2
`
`

`

`G. Has Patent Owner shown any secondary considerations of non-
`
`obviousness sufficient to overcome a strong prima facie case of
`
`obviousness?
`
`Petitioner further reserves the right to address any arguments presented by Patent
`
`Owner.
`
`
`
`Petitioner requests the ability to use audio visual equipment to display
`
`demonstrative exhibits, including the use of a projector and screen for PowerPoint
`
`display.
