`
`present its arguments. Patent Owner respectfully requests that it be permitted to
`
`reserve up to fifteen (15) minutes of its’ oral argument time for after Petitioner’s
`
`reply to highlight issues in petitioner’s reply that exceed the proper scope of a
`
`reply.

`
`obvious under any of Grounds 1-2 in the Petition;

`Petitioner’s Reply (Paper 20) raises issues that go beyond the scope of
`
`a proper reply;
`
`3.
`
`4.
`
`Any issues identified in Petitioner’s Request for Oral Argument;
`
`Any other issues raised in papers filed in this proceeding, including

`
`decision.
