`Re: Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`Case No. 2014-00745
`
`USPN 6,856,687 (the Patent)
`Dear Sir/Madam,
`
`At the request of the USPTO, the undersigned respectfully submits the
`
`following explanation regarding the address of service.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The address in the Public Pair system for the Patent is,
`
`Plevy, Howard & Darcy
`PO Box 226
`Fort Washington, PA 19034
`
`The Petitioner instead served at the following address,
`
`Plevy, Howard & Darcy
`550 Pinetown Road
`Suite 430
`
`
`
`
`
`Page 2
`
`
`
`
`Fort Washington, PA 19034
`
`The deviation arises from the undersigned’s intention to effect service in
`
`view of the shipper’s limitations.
`
`To the best of the undersigned’s knowledge, FedEx “cannot deliver to P. O.
`
`Boxes or to P.O. Box ZIP codes in the U.S.” See attached Doc 1 at page 5. The law
`firm of Plevy, Howard & Darcy lists the above-stated street address on its website.
`See attached Doc 2. FindLaw.com associates the P.O. Box number with the street
`address. See attached Doc 3 at page 1.
`
`Therefore, to accommodate FedEx’s limitations and in an effort to effect
`
`service, the undersigned used the above-stated street address.
`
`The package was delivered at the street address on the next business day,
`
`i.e., May 12, 2014. See attached Doc 4.
`
`In addition to serving the street address, Petitioner served four additional
`
`addresses to ensure that the Patent owner was on notice. Petitioner served the
`business address for the Patent owner of record, the addresses for New York and
`Texas-based litigation counsel for the Patent owner in connection with the lawsuit
`involving the Patent being asserted against the Petitioner, and the correspondent
`address listed in the USPTO assignment database.
`
`Please kindly let us know if we could be of further assistance.

`FedEx Ground barcode label (U.S.)
`
`Every FedEx Ground package sent within the U.S. needs a barcode label and an address label. This can be:
`®
`
`• A combined barcode and address label produced by FedEx electronic shipping solutions or a third-party-vendor
`®
`shipping device registered by FedEx.
`• A preprinted barcode label plus an address label you create yourself. These barcode labels contain your company's
`shipper number and a unique tracking number for routing your package.
`
`You can order FedEx Ground barcode labels by calling 1.800.GoFedEx 1.800.463.3339. Alternatively, FedEx Ship Manager at
`®
`fedex.com can help you generate labels electronically right from your desktop. Remember, there is a different barcode label for
`every service or service option you choose. If you don't have your own barcode labels, you can also take your U.S. ground
`packages to most FedEx drop-off locations and we can process them for you.

`send it along with each day's shipments only if they have declared value.
`
`• Enter pickup date and shipper address.

`FedEx Home Delivery® barcode label
`
`Label Requirements
`You must use a FedEx Home Delivery 128 barcode and address label on each residential package. In addition to adhering to the
`shipping label requirements in the FedEx Ground Multicode Bar Code Label Guide, you must incorporate the following:
`
`• Print a large, bold "H" using block font with a minimum font point size of 44. Ideally, the "H" should be located
`immediately to the left of the Ship To address. It should have a minimum height of 3/4" and a width of 1/4". If it is not
`possible to print the "H" immediately to the left of the Ship To address, you may place it elsewhere, but it must be within
`one inch of the Ship To address.
`• If you are not able to print an "H" on the address label of your package, you may use preprinted "H" stickers that your
`FedEx account executive can provide. The sticker, too, must be placed within one inch of the Ship To address.
`
`EDI Requirements
`If you process FedEx Home Delivery packages from your location, you must transmit an electronic manifest that contains all of
`your package information directly to FedEx Ground via FedEx Ship Manager at fedex.com or another electronic shipping
`®
`solution.
`
`• The transmission must include package weight, destination ZIP code, and recipient name and address.
`• For a FedEx Appointment Home Delivery package, you must include a telephone number with area code.
`• For a FedEx Date Certain Home Delivery package, include a telephone number with area code, and a selected
`delivery date that falls within standard FedEx Home Delivery transit times, Tuesday through Saturday, excluding
`holidays.
`
`® ®
`
`The manifest file must be in an approved format such as EDI 215 Pick-Up Manifest (version 4010 or above) or FedEx Ground
`proprietary flat-file format — and can include specific delivery instructions such as "Leave package on the back porch."
