`
`PATENT OWNERS’ NOTICE REGARDING SUPPLEMENTAL
`EVIDENCE
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2015-01624
`Patent Owners’ Notice Regarding Supplemental Evidence
`
`
`On May 20, 2016, Petitioners filed and served Petitioners’ Objections to
`
`Evidence Pursuant To 37 C.F.R. § 42.64 in the instant IPR proceeding. See
`
`IPR2015-01624, Paper No. 29. In particular, Petitioners objected to Exhibit 2035
`
`(File History of U.S. Patent No. 4,495,280), as well as paragraphs 161, 189, and
`
`195 of the Expert Declaration of John Fiddes (Ex. 2019) (all of which pertain to
`
`the file history of Exhibit 2035), as lacking completeness under Federal Rule of
`
`Evidence 102. See id. at 1, 3, 9. Patent Owners disagree with Petitioners’
`
`objections—as far as Patent Owners are aware, Exhibit 2035 is a complete copy of
`
`the file history for U.S. Patent No. 4,495,280. Petitioners failed to identify any
`
`particular pages of the file history in Exhibit 2035 that are purportedly missing.
`
`Nevertheless, in order to obviate these objections, Patent Owners intend to
`
`file as supplemental evidence a certified copy of the file history of U.S. Patent No.
`
`4,495,280. The service used by Patent Owners to obtain certified file histories
`
`from the Patent Office has estimated that the time required by the Patent Office to
`
`issue a certified file history can be more than three weeks. The Patent Owner
`
`diligently requested a certified copy of the file history upon learning of Petitioners’
`
`objections. However, in view of the time period to receive the certified copy from
`
`the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), Patent Owners have not
`
`received and are not able to file a certified file history by today’s 10 business day
`
`deadline to file supplemental evidence in response to Petitioners’ objections filed

`
`
`1
`
`
`
`IPR2015-01624
`Patent Owners’ Notice Regarding Supplemental Evidence
`
`
`on May 20, 2016. The Patent Owners are prepared to file the certified copy of the
`
`File History as soon as it is received.
`
`Patent Owners have asked Petitioners’ counsel whether they will object to
`
`Patent Owners’ filing of the certified file history of U.S. Patent No. 4,495,280
`
`when it becomes available from the Patent Office. Petitioners’ counsel responded
`
`that they have no objection.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
