`
`
`DECLARATION OF MICHELLE CALLAGHAN
`
`I, Michelle Callaghan, declare that the following statements made of my own
`
`knowledge are true, and that any statements below made on information and belief are
`
`believed to be true:
`
`1.
`
`I am an associate attorney at Erise IP, P.A. I was admitted to the
`
`Colorado Bar on October 31, 2016.
`
`2.
`
`Since approximately July 28, 2017, I have contributed to the preparation
`
`of the Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S. patent 8,577,813 (’813 Patent) on
`
`behalf of Petitioner Unified Patents Inc. (“Petitioner”).
`
`3.
`
`Between July 2017 and September 2017, I reviewed various prior art
`
`patents and printed publication references related to the subject matter of the ’813
`
`Patent. As I reviewed this art, I mapped the teachings of prior art references against
`
`the claims and limitations of the ’813 Patent using claim charts. Such references
`
`included, among others, U.S. Patent 6,016,476 to Maes et al. (“Maes”), U.S. Patent
`
`5,870,723 to Pare et al. (“Pare”), U.S. Pub. US 2004/0107170 Al to Labrou et al.
`
`(“Labrou”), and WO 2001/024123 to Burger et al. (“Burger”). For the limitations of
`
`Claim 1 (an independent claim) and Claim 5 (which depends from Claim 1), I mapped
`
`applicable teachings in Maes, Pare, Labrou, among other references, into the claim
`
`charts. For the limitations of Claim 6 (which depends from Claim 5), I mapped
`
`IPR2018-00067
`Unified EX1020 Page 2
`
`
`
`Callaghan Declaration, IPR2018-00067
`U.S. Patent 8,577,813
`
`applicable teachings in Burger into the claim charts. For the limitations of Claims 7-9
`
`(which depend from Claim 6 either directly or indirectly), I mapped applicable
`
`teachings in Maes, a reference relied upon for limitations of Claim 1, into the claim
`
`charts. For the limitations of Claim 10 (which depends from Claim 7), I mapped
`
`applicable teachings in Labrou, another reference already relied upon for limitations
`
`of Claim 1, into the claim charts.
`
`4.
`
`In September 2017, I began copying and pasting the content of the art
`
`mapped against the claims of the ’813 Patent and their related arguments from the
`
`claim charts into a template petition. I was responsible for preparing a first draft
`
`petition, including the proposed Grounds 1 and 2.
`
`5.
`
`On October 2, 2017, I sent a draft petition to my supervising attorney,
`
`Jason Mudd. In this draft, I mistakenly transcribed the mapping and arguments for
`
`Maes regarding claims 7-9 and for Labrou regarding claim 10 into Ground 1 instead
`
`of Ground 2, where they were intended to be inserted based on their direct or indirect
`
`dependency from claim 6, which was included in Ground 2.
`
`6.
`
`Between October 3, 2017, and October 16, 2017, through various
`
`drafting iterations, I received various comments from Mr. Mudd and others to
`
`incorporate into the final version of the Petition ultimately filed on October 16, 2017,
`
`but none of these comments addressed my transcription error.

`
`On February 7, 2018, I reviewed the Preliminary Response filed by
`
`7.
`
`Patent Owner Universal Secure Registry LLC. Upon reviewing the Preliminary
`
`Response, I first became aware of my clerical mistake with respect to the transcription
`
`of Claims 7-10 under Ground 1 instead of Ground 2 and alerted Mr. Mudd of the
`
`mistake.
`
`I declare that all statements made herein of my own knowledge are true and
`
`that all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true; and
`
`further that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false
`
`statements and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both,
`
`under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
