`PATENT OWNER’S FIRST OBJECTIONS TO EVIDENCE
`PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.64
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Orbital Australia Pty Ltd f/k/a/ Orbital
`
`Engine Company (Australia) Pty. Ltd. (“Patent Owner”) hereby objects to the
`
`admissibility of certain evidence submitted or cited in support of the Petition dated
`
`June 16, 2016 (Paper 3). Patent Owner’s objections are based on the Federal Rules
`
`of Evidence (“FRE”), relevant case law, and PTAB Rules, as further detailed
`
`below. Patent Owner’s objections to evidence are timely under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.64(b)(1), as they are filed within ten business days from the institution of trial
`
`on December 30, 2015.
`
`Exhibit 1002
`
`Petitioner’s Exhibit 1002 nominally purports to be a reference entitled
`
`“Methods for Fast Catalytic System Warm-Up During Vehicle Cold Starts,” SAE
`
`Technical Paper 720481, 1972 by Bernhardt et al. (Ex. 1002, “Bernhardt”).
`
`Exhibit 1002 additionally contains a cover page which appears to be a webpage
`
`printout dated January 20, 2015 from the website http://papers.sae.org/720481/.
`
`Ex. 1002 at 1.
`
`Patent Owner objects to this exhibit because it has not been properly
`
`authenticated, as required by FRE 901, and this exhibit is not self-authenticating
`
`under FRE 902.

`
`
`
`IPR2015-01258
`Patent 5,655,365
`
`Patent Owner also objects to this exhibit to the extent it is relied on for
`
`information purportedly relating to dates of publication, if any, as hearsay under
`
`FRE 801 and inadmissible under FRE 802-807.
`
`Exhibit 1010
`
`Petitioner’s Exhibit 1010 is U.S. Patent No. 6,581,572 to Hurley.
`
`Patent Owner objects to this exhibit as irrelevant under FRE 402, and
`
`prejudicial, misleading, confusing, and/or a waste of time under FRE 403.
`
`Patent Owner also objects to this exhibit under 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.6(a)(3) and
`
`42.24(a)(1)(i) because it is not referenced or explained in the Petition. See 37
`
`C.F.R. §§ 42.22(a)(2) and 42.104(b)(4).
