`

`
`
`
`Petitioners’ Request for Oral Argument.
`Case IPR2014-01209
`U.S. Patent No. 7,051,147
`
`Petitioners respectfully request oral argument. Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §
`
`
`
`
`
`42.70, Petitioners specify the following issues to be argued:
`
`1. Patent Owner has failed to apply the broadest reasonable construction to
`claim terms, including the “map” and “access control” limitations;
`2. Claims 1, 2, 4, 10, 11 and 13 are rendered obvious by Kikuchi and
`Bergsten;
`3. Claim 5 is rendered obvious by Kikuchi, Bergsten and Smith;
`4. Claims 1, 2, 4, 10, 11 and 13 are rendered obvious by Bergsten and Hirai;
`5. Claim 5 is rendered obvious by Bergsten, Hirai and Smith;
`6. Patent Owner has not antedated Kikuchi;
`7. Patent Owner has not provided objective evidence of nonobviousness;
`and
`8. Other issues raised in papers filed in the present proceeding, including
`issues raised in any papers filed between today and the oral hearing.
`
`
`
`Because issues across IPR2014-01197, IPR2014-01207, and IPR2014-01209
`
`are similar, Petitioners suggest a single consolidated oral argument for these
`
`proceedings, with Petitioners and Patent Owner each allocated one hour to present
`
`oral arguments. Petitioners further suggest that the Board set the hearing for the
`
`afternoon of October 30, 2015. Doing so would allow the Board to hold the
`
`hearings in related case numbers IPR2014-01226, IPR2014-01463 and IPR2014-
`
`01544 during the morning of October 30, 2015 as requested by the petitioners in
`
`
`
`
`
`1
`
`

`
`
`
`Petitioners’ Request for Oral Argument.
`Case IPR2014-01209
`U.S. Patent No. 7,051,147
`
`
`
`
`
`those proceedings. See, e.g., Paper No. 37 in IPR2014-1226. During the morning
`
`hearing the Board can focus on the CRD references, as those are the only
`
`references at issue in those cases. During the afternoon hearing the Board will
`
`additionally hear arguments on Kikuchi, Bergsten and Hirai.
`
`In the event any fees are required for this Request, please charge Deposit
`
`Account No. 15-0030.
