`
`
`Dear Board:
`
`I am counsel for Petitioner Robert Bosch LLC in the above‐identified inter partes review proceedings.
`
`
`Copied on this email are counsel for Petitioner Daimler AG and counsel for Patent Owner Orbital Australia PTY Ltd.
`
`
`Petitioners write regarding Orbital’s contention in its Patent Owner Preliminary Responses, filed in IPR2015‐01258 and
`IPR2015‐01259, that the respective IPR Petitions fail to establish the Bernhardt technical paper (Ex. 1002) as a prior art
`printed publication. While the Bernhardt paper in combination with the SAE International index page in Ex. 1002 shows
`that the reference was cataloged and published by SAE in 1972, to put this issue to rest, Petitioners respectfully request
`permission, under 37 C.F.R. § 42.5(b), to submit additional documents relating to the publication of the Bernhardt paper
`in the 1970s. Specifically, if authorized, Petitioners would file copies of the 1972 Inter‐Industry Emission Control (IIEC)
`Progress Report and the 1973 SAE Transactions journal, as further evidence of the Bernhardt paper’s
`publication. Petitioners would also file a copy of a Cumulative Index of SAE Technical Papers published between 1965
`and 1978, which lists the Bernhardt paper and describes how to order a copy from SAE, as evidence of the Bernhardt
`paper’s public accessibility during the relevant period.
`
`
`Patent Owner has had the opportunity to review the three documents and Patent Owner does not consent to
`Petitioner’s request.

`If the Board wishes to conduct a telephone conference to discuss the filing of these exhibits, counsel for all parties are
`available on Thursday afternoon, or alternatively, generally next week.
`
`
`Regards,
`
