`
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`I, Thomas, J. Scott, Jr., being over 18 years of age, submit this
`
`1.
`
`declaration concerning “Secondary Considerations of Non-obviousness”
`
`relating to U.S. Patent No. 7,752,649 (“the ’749 patent”), U.S. Patent No.
`
`8,559,635 (“the ’635 patent”), and U.S. Patent No. 8,191,091 (“the ’091
`
`patent”) (collectively, “the Challenged Patents”).
`
`2.
`
`I am the Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Patent
`
`Owner Personalized Media Communications, LLC (“PMC”) and have been
`
`in this position since April 2014. Prior to joining PMC, I had been serving
`
`as a counsel for the company and its predecessor entities, as well as its
`
`founder, Mr. John C. Harvey, for over 25 years.
`
`3.
`
`As a registered patent attorney, I understand that “secondary
`
`considerations of non-obviousness” are factors established by the courts that
`
`can be used to attempt to demonstrate the non-obviousness of a patented
`
`invention, and include: (i) whether and to what extent the invention was
`
`commercially successful; and (ii) whether and to what extent there was
`
`industry praise of the claimed invention.
`
`I.
`
`THE PMC PATENT FAMILY AND CLAIMED INVENTIONS
`4.
`PMC owns a patent portfolio comprising 97 issued U.S. patents
`
`(including the Challenged Patents) and 7 pending U.S. patent applications.
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 2
`
`

`

`
`
`5.
`
`All these PMC patents and applications belong in the same
`
`patent family. The first patent, U.S. Patent No. 4,694,490 issued from an
`
`application filed on November 3, 1981 (“the 1981 disclosure”). The second
`
`patent, U.S. Patent No. 4,704,725 issued from a continuation of the
`
`November 3, 1981 application. The rest of the patents (including the
`
`Challenged Patents) issued from applications that are all based on an
`
`application filed on September 11, 1987 (“the 1987 disclosure”) which was a
`
`continuation-in-part of the November 3, 1981 application.
`
`6.
`
`Claiming priority ultimately to the same 1981 and 1987
`
`disclosures, the Challenged Patents all share the same specification as most
`
`of the patents and applications in the PMC patent family.
`
`7.
`
`The claimed inventions of the ’649 Patent are directed to
`
`methods of processing signals in a receiver. In claim 39, for example,
`
`signals are processed in a television receiver that has multiple processors.
`
`An information transmission that includes digital television signals and a
`
`message stream is received at the television receiver. The message stream is
`
`detected and at least a portion of the message stream is input to a control
`
`processor. Control information in the inputted message stream portion is
`
`selected and communicated to at least one register memory. Stored function
`
`invoking data is compared to the contents of the register memory. The
`
`
`
`3
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 3
`
`

`

`
`
`digital television signals are input to the multiple processors on the basis of
`
`one or more matches. The digital television signals are processed
`
`simultaneously at two or more of the multiple processors, and television
`
`programming included in the digital television signals is displayed.
`
`8.
`
`The claimed inventions of the ’635 patent are directed to a
`
`programming transmission and receiving systems and methods with access
`
`control. The ’635 patent describes using multiple decryption keys and
`
`multiple decryption algorithms for the decryption of encrypted video and
`
`audio. Not only are the video and audio encrypted, but so are the decryption
`
`keys. The decryption keys may be encrypted and transmitted with the
`
`programming transmission so that they must be decrypted before they can be
`
`used to decrypt the programming. Moreover, the instructions that are
`
`transmitted to cause the decryption may themselves be encrypted, thus
`
`requiring that they be decrypted before they are loaded and executed.
`
`9.
`
`The claimed inventions of the ’091 patent are directed to
`
`various decryption key management techniques implemented across a
`
`content distribution network. According to the claimed methods, when a
`
`receiver station receives an “information transmission” including “encrypted
`
`information,” one or more “instruct-to-enable signals” may be detected to
`
`allow the receiver station to locate or obtain decryption-enabling information
`
`
`
`4
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 4
`
`

`

`
`
`such as decryption key(s), such that the encrypted information can be
`
`decrypted based on the enabling information in order to output protected
`
`programming. For example, independent claim 13 covers the detection and
`
`use of “an instruct-to-enable signal” in order to determine “a fashion in
`
`which said receiver station locates a first decryption key.” Independent
`
`claim 20 covers the detection and processing of two “instruct-to-enable
`
`signals” including “processor instructions” for obtaining two decryption
`
`keys that are both used for decryption of the encrypted information.
`
`Independent claim 26 covers detecting “an instruct-to-enable signal,”
`
`“automatically tuning said receiver station to a channel designated by said
`
`instruct-to-enable signal,” and “receiving enabling information from a
`
`remote source based on said step of tuning” that is used for decryption of
`
`encrypted content.
`
`II.
`
`COMMERCIAL SUCCESS OF THE INVENTION
`10. PMC’s numerous licenses of the patent family (that includes the
`
`Challenged Patents) reflect the commercial success of the patented
`
`technology and are thus relevant indicia of non-obviousness.
`
`11. Because the inventions of the Challenged Patents provide,
`
`among other things, innovative techniques for decrypting and/or decoding
`
`digital content in a network environment, they have experienced exceptional
`
`
`
`5
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 5
`
`

`

`commercial success. Numerous media and telecommunications companies
`
`use PMC’s technology, including providers of electronic media, and
`
`particularly electronic media content that has to be protected against
`
`unauthorized access and can only be decoded by authorized users. Such
`
`content protection is achieved through the various decryption key
`
`management and distribution techniques covered by the ’635 patent and the
`
`’091 patent. Furthermore, the transmission, receiving, processing, and
`
`decoding of multiplexed content streams also employ the signal processing
`
`techniques covered by the ’649 patent.
`
`12. Similarly, the digital pay-television industry uses the patented
`
`technology, including not just the satellite television providers (DirecTV,
`
`DISH Network, etc.) but also digital cable systems and fiber-optic systems
`
`such as Comcast, Cox, Time Warner Cable, Verizon’s FIOS and AT&T’s U-
`
`verse. OEM providers, such as Motorola, Scientific-Atlanta (now part of
`
`Cisco), and Sony Electronics, who provide set-top boxes and content
`
`delivery networks to the aforementioned content providers, implement the
`
`patented technology. Pay-television providers have a combined total of
`
`approximately 100 million subscribers. Substantially all of these services
`
`now digitally encode content and use technology covered by the patent to
`
`provide key functionality, such as the use of control and information signals
`
`
`
`6
`
`
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 6
`
`

`

`
`
`embedded in electronic media content to decrypt and/or decode digital
`
`content.
`
`13. Because of this prevalent use of PMC’s technology, the PMC
`
`patent family (including the Challenged Patents) has been the subject of
`
`extensive licensing establishing the belief of industry participants in the
`
`validity and relevance of the patents. To date, the PMC patent family has
`
`been the subject of licenses to more than a dozen licensees in transactions
`
`generating revenue to PMC and its investors in excess of $350M. The
`
`specific per-unit royalty figures and lump sum payments for each license are
`
`not disclosed below as a result of confidentiality provisions.
`
`14. On March 2, 1994, PMC licensed its patents and applications to
`
`StarSight Telecast, Inc. on an exclusive basis for a significant one-time
`
`payment and stock options in StarSight. The license provided that StarSight
`
`and PMC would work together to file additional patent applications, which
`
`in 1995 included the application leading to the Challenged Patents. The
`
`field-of-use related to the use of program guides for channel navigation
`
`allowing for users to select programs.
`
`15. On October 1, 1995, StarSight, with PMC’s consent,
`
`sublicensed PMC’s patents to Thomson Consumer Electronics, Inc. for
`
`making DSS (Digital Satellite Subscriber) products. Thomson was granted
`
`
`
`7
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 7
`
`

`

`non-exclusive use of the PMC patents related to a DSS program guide and
`
`recording functions. Thomson agreed to pay per-unit royalties for DSS
`
`receiver units. Thomson has sold many millions of DSS products under its
`
`brand and has sourced millions of DSS products sold under the brand names
`
`of others.
`
`16. On October 31, 1995, PMC entered into a license and option
`
`agreement with Sony whereby Sony agreed to pay a per-unit royalty for set-
`
`top boxes using the PMC technology, including the patented inventions, for
`
`compatibility with the DirecTV system. Sony sold many millions of set-top
`
`boxes subject to this agreement.
`
`17. On January 31, 1996, PMC entered into a license agreement
`
`with The Weather Channel, Inc. and Landmark Communications, Inc. in
`
`order to settle litigation. The licensees obtained worldwide non-exclusive
`
`rights to deliver certain types of content for a significant one-time payment
`
`and an option for additional rights in the patents.
`
`18.
`
`In August 1999, PMC sent Sony a letter amending the 1995
`
`agreement to provide for certain other receiver products to be licensed on a
`
`per-unit royalty basis. In March 2002, PMC and Sony entered into an
`
`agreement reaffirming the 1995 license agreement.

`

`19.
`
`In January 2000, PMC Satellite LLC, a wholly-owned
`
`subsidiary of PMC, entered into a field-of-use license agreement with
`
`Pegasus Development Corporation. Pegasus agreed to pay PMC Satellite a
`
`significant license payment for the specific field-of-use granted along with a
`
`strategic investment in PMC. The license gave Pegasus the right to license
`
`others in the patents for the field-of-use granted to Pegasus. Pegasus and
`
`PMC filed a lawsuit against DIRECTV (discussed further below) on
`
`December 2002 that was settled with a license agreement announced in July
`
`2013.
`
`20. On December 29, 2000 PMC entered into a comprehensive
`
`agreement with Gemstar-TV Guide that included an investment in PMC
`
`made by Gemstar-TV Guide and the grant of multiple field-of-use licenses
`
`by to Gemstar-TV Guide. PMC and its investors received a substantial
`
`payment under the agreement.
`
`21. More recently, on May 18, 2011, Cisco Systems, Inc., and
`
`Scientific-Atlanta LLC licensed the PMC patent family (including the
`
`Challenged Patents) in a transaction that included a substantial payment.
`
`This was a nonexclusive license granted in settlement of litigation to make,
`
`use, and sell products and services of or provided by Cisco or its affiliates.

`
`

`

`
`
`22. On June 1, 2011, Motorola Mobility agreed to license the
`
`Challenged Patents, among other PMC patents, in a transaction in settlement
`
`of litigation that included a substantial payment.
`
`23.
`
`In July 2013, DIRECTV, LLC, Hughes Electronics
`
`Corporation, Technicolor USA, Inc., and Philips Electronics North America
`
`Corporation, agreed to license the Challenged Patents, among other PMC
`
`patents, for a substantial one-time payment in settlement of litigation. The
`
`payment is to be shared between PMC and co-plaintiff Pegasus
`
`Development Corporation.
`
`24.
`
`In January 2014, Zynga, Inc. agreed to license the Challenged
`
`Patents, among other PMC patents.
`
`25.
`
`In February 2014, Panasonic Corporation agreed to license the
`
`Challenged Patents, among other PMC patents, for a substantial one-time
`
`payment and further agreed to a long-term licensing program relationship
`
`with PMC. This license was not entered into in connection with the
`
`settlement of litigation. Panasonic licensed the PMC patents, including the
`
`Challenged Patents, with knowledge of the then-pending inter partes review
`
`proceedings involving Amazon, Inc.
`
`26.
`
`In April 2014, Single Touch Interactive R&D IP LLC, Single
`
`Touch Systems, Inc., and PMC formed VideoStar LLC, joint venture to
`
`
`
`10
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 10
`
`

`

`
`
`exploit unique target licensing opportunities distinct and separate from the
`
`current licensing programs of Single Touch and PMC, using Single Touch’s
`
`video streaming, and PMC’s pioneering digital broadcast, delivery and
`
`payment patents.
`
`27.
`
`In May 2015, Echostar Corporation and DISH Network
`
`Corporation agreed to license the Challenged Patents, among other PMC
`
`patents, for a substantial payment in settlement of litigation.
`
`28.
`
`In June 2015, ARRIS Group, Inc. agreed to license the
`
`Challenged Patents, among other PMC patents, for itself and certain
`
`subsidiaries, for substantial payments. The parties were not engaged in
`
`litigation. Like Panasonic, ARRIS licensed the PMC patents, including the
`
`Challenged Patents, with knowledge of the then-pending inter partes review
`
`proceedings involving Amazon, Inc.
`
`29.
`
`In June 2015, PMC concluded a new patent licensing
`
`agreement with Sharp Corporation and its subsidiaries. The parties were not
`
`engaged in litigation. Like Panasonic and ARRIS, Sharp licensed the PMC
`
`patents, including the Challenged Patents, with knowledge of the then-
`
`pending inter partes review proceedings involving Amazon, Inc.
`
`30. These licenses and sublicenses under the PMC patent family,
`
`including the Challenged Patents, attest to the industry’s recognition of the
`
`
`
`11
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 11
`
`

`

`
`
`validity and relevance of the patents, particularly because many of the
`
`license amounts are orders of magnitude above the cost of defense in an
`
`infringement action.
`
`31. The fact that some licensee companies have chosen not just to
`
`purchase licenses but also to make equity investments in PMC also
`
`demonstrates their belief in the validity of the Challenged Patents, among
`
`other PMC patents.
`
`32. This success is attributable not to any particular feature by
`
`itself, but rather to the combination of unique command-and-control
`
`functionalities embodied in PMC’s inventions. Combinations of some of
`
`these features are recited in the claims of the Challenged Patents.
`
`III. PRAISE BY OTHERS/INDUSTRY RECOGNITION: OCEAN
`TOMO
`33. PMC has received professional acclaim and acknowledgement
`
`of success. Such recognition serves as strong evidence of non-obviousness.
`
`See Vulcan Eng’g. Co., Inc. v. Fata Aluminum, Inc., 278 F.3d 1366, 1373
`
`(Fed. Cir. 2002) (“Appreciation by contemporaries skilled in the field of the
`
`invention is a useful indicator of whether the invention would have been
`
`obvious to such persons at the time it was made.”).
`
`34. April 26, 2011, Ocean Tomo, LLC issued its Ocean Tomo
`
`Quality Inventor Study in four technology categories. (Ex. 2049.) Ocean
`
`
`
`12
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 12
`
`

`

`Tomo, LLC is an independent, third-party firm that provides an industry
`
`leading array of financial products and services related to intangible assets
`
`such as patents. As part of its services, it analyzed and assessed the value of
`
`patents that have been issued at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. In
`
`2010, Ocean Tomo undertook a study of the top patent inventors relative to
`
`the quality of their 2010 issued and in-force patents.
`
`35. The study was performed using the Ocean Tomo
`
`PatentRatings® system, which is “the first market-validated software
`
`platform for objectively assessing patent quality, relative value, and
`
`competitive trends for patents, patent portfolios, companies, and technology
`
`sectors. The Ocean Tomo PatentRatings® System uses a patented method
`
`of patent quality valuation, (U.S. Patent Nos. 6,556,992, 7,657,476 and
`
`7,716,226 and other U.S. and foreign patents pending) that is statistically
`
`based calculating the relative quality of all patents issued by the U.S. Patent
`
`Office since 1976 using more than 50 independent and objective factors that
`
`are correlated to patent value.” Id.
`
`36. Regarding the PMC patents, the Study states: “[i]n Wireless,
`
`the top rated inventor with 16 patents in USPC 455, 370 & 375 is John
`
`Harvey. These patents have an average IPQ score of 235.7 which puts his
`
`patents in the top 0.1% of the approximate 220,000, active U.S. utility
`
`
`
`13
`
`
`
`
`
`PMC Exhibit 2020
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-00754
`Page 13
`
`

`

`
`
`patents granted in 2010.”1 Id. (emphasis added). The Challenged Patents
`
`and these patents are part of the same patent family and share the same
`
`specification. This independent industry praise is strong objective evidence
`
`of the non-obviousness of the inventions.
`
`IV. PRAISE BY OTHERS/INDUSTRY RECOGNITION:
`CITATION OF PMC PATENTS BY OTHERS
`
`37. Additionally, evidence of “forward citations,” in other words,
`
`third party patents and publications that cite to the PMC patent family
`
`(including the Challenged Patents), evidence industry recognition of the
`
`significance of the inventions. It is my understanding that a number of
`
`valuation studies find a positive correlation between a patent’s forward
`
`citations and its value. See, e.g., Ex. 2047 at 1 (“… when a patent is cited by
`
`a large number of subsequent patents (hereafter, forward citations), this
`
`indicates that the patented invention has led to a number of successful lines
`
`
`1 The USPC classes correspond to telecommunications (455), multiplex
`
`communications (370), and pulse or digital communications (375). The
`
`sixteen patents in these USPC classes that issued in 2010 are US 7,860,249,
`
`US 7,860,131, US 7,849,479, US 7,831,204, US 7,830,925, US 7,784,082,
`
`US 7,783,252, US 7,774,809, US 7,769,344, US 7,769,170, US 7,764,685,
`
`US 7,761,890, US 7,752,650, US 7,752,649, US 7,747,217, US 7,734,251.

`

`
`
`of innovation. Thus, the invention is likely to be of high technological
`
`influence (defined as the technological impact that a patent has on
`
`subsequent inventions) and thus highly economically valuable.”)(emphasis
`
`in original). See also Ex. 2048 at 1 (“A useful, efficient and increasingly
`
`utilised indication of the value of a patent is the number of times that it is
`
`cited by a later patent (‘forward citations’). More valuable patents (that is,
`
`patents for which there is relatively high demand for the technology
`
`described in that patent) tend to be cited more often than less valuable
`
`patents. An analysis of patent citations to determine the value of patents has
`
`been used in the academic literature since at least the 1980s. The basic
`
`concept has broad recognition and has been extensively tested empirically. It
`
`is often used in the commercial practice of valuing intellectual property and
`
`cited in studies by WIPO and the OECD.”
`
`38. The PMC patent family has been cited by several hundred
`
`patents and publications.
`
`39. Notably, a number of U.S. patents assigned to Apple Inc. cite
`
`the PMC patents. For example, PMC’s U.S. Patent No. 5,335,277 was cited
`
`as relevant prior art by the patent office during examination of Apple’s U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,111,842. During prosecution of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,799,461
`
`and 9,451,019, Apple itself cited PMC’s U.S. Patent Nos. 4,694,490,

`4,704,725, 4,965,825, 5,109,414, and 5,233,654 as prior art relevant to
`
