`Pursuant to the Board’s July 2, 2014 Scheduling Order (Paper 12), Petitioners
`
`respectfully request oral argument for the trial currently scheduled on March 25, 2015 in
`
`this proceeding. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, Petitioners request one hour of argument
`
`time and specify the following issues, without intent to waive consideration of any issue
`
`not requested, to be argued:
`
`I.
`
`The Proper Construction and Scope of the Claims under the Broadest
`
`Reasonable Interpretation Standard.
`
`II. Whether Claims 1-3, 5, 12-14, 18, 19, 25-27, 29-31, and 34-36 are
`
`Unpatentable Under 35 U.S.C. § 102 as anticipated by Prometheus.
`
`III. Whether Claims 3, 5, 12, 15, 16, 21, and 28 are Unpatentable Under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 103 as obvious over Prometheus in view of Narita.
`
`IV. Whether Claim 4 is Unpatentable Under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as obvious over
`
`Prometheus in view of Celsior.
`
`V.
`
`Rebuttal to Patent Owner’s presentation on all matters including the issues
`
`listed above.
`
`
`
`Petitioners additionally request permission to use audiovisual display equipment
`

`
`slides. Any demonstrative exhibits beyond those attached to the Petition will be
`
`served at least five business days before the oral argument as required by 37 C.F.R. §
