`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`PURSUANT TO 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a)
`
`US.121245691.01
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a) and Paper 47 in this proceeding, Petitioner
`
`Allsteel, Inc. respectfully requests the opportunity to present oral argument in this
`
`matter regarding newly instituted claims 8, 11, 13, and 21-23 of U.S. Patent
`
`8,024,901. Petitioner believes oral argument is necessary to fully address the
`
`evidence and arguments presented in the parties’ briefing on the newly instituted
`
`claims, particularly in view of the scope of the issues raised by the parties and the
`
`limited number of briefing pages that was available to address those issues. The
`
`issues Petitioner will address during oral argument include the following:
`
`1.
`
`The grounds for which inter partes review was instituted for claims 8,
`
`11, 13, and 21-23 of U.S. Patent 8,024,901
`
`a.
`
`b.
`
`U.S. Patent 8,024,901 claim 8 is obvious over Raith and Yu;
`
`U.S. Patent 8,024,901 claims 11 and 13 are obvious over Raith
`
`and EVH; and
`
`c.
`
`U.S. Patent 8,024,901 claims 21-23 are obvious over Raith and
`
`MacGregor.
`
`2.
`
`Any issues addressed by Petitioner in IPR2015-01691 with respect to
`
`newly instituted claims 8, 11, 13, and 21-23, including in the Petition
`
`for Inter Partes Review (Paper No. 1), Petitioners’ Request for
`
`Rehearing (Paper No. 16), and Petitioners’ supplemental briefing on
`
`the newly instituted claims (Paper Nos. 48, and 53).

`

`
