`PATENT OWNER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`
`
`1 Apple Inc. and Black Swamp IP, LLC, who filed petitions in IPR2016-00063 and
`IPR2016-00167, respectively, have been joined as a Petitioner in the instant
`proceeding.
`
`
`
`Case IPR2015-01047
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70, and the Board’s Scheduling Order dated
`
`October 7, 2015 (Paper 12), Patent Owner VirnetX Inc. requests oral argument and
`
`submits that the Board allocate twenty minutes per side for oral argument in this
`
`proceeding. To the extent the Board grants oral argument, Patent Owner notes it
`
`should be counsel for The Mangrove Partners Master Fund, Ltd., and not Apple
`
`Inc. or Black Swamp IP, LLC, who argues at the hearing given the issues Patent
`
`Owner has raised regarding Apple's and Black Swamp’s joinder to this proceeding.
