`FRE 402 (Relevance): The Patent Owner does
`not use this exhibit in supporting the patentability
`of the Challenged Claims. Thus, to the extent
`that Patent Owner relies on the exhibit as
`anything other than prior art or in showing the
`patentability or unpatentability of the ‘309 patent,
`the exhibit is not relevant.

`Patent Owner’s development and sale of an audio
`system and accolades allegedly awarded to an
`audio system, and are thus hearsay.
`
`FRE 901 (Authentication): Patent Owner has
`failed to show that the exhibit is self-
`authenticating, and has failed to produce evidence
`to show that this is an authentic copy of the
`documents.
