`
`Universal secure registry (USR) receives
`provider’s transaction request

`
`Petition at 16.
`
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT ONLY – NOT EVIDENCE
`
`Ex. 1102 (Shoup Decl.), ¶¶ 73-74.
`
`• The Petition argues “account
`identifying information”
`means “personal information
`about an entity such as
`name, address, or account
`number.”
`• Petitioner’s expert also
`agrees that the ‘539
`specification “consistently”
`teaches not transmitting a
`purchaser’s “account
`information, including a
`user’s name, address, bank
`or credit card account
`numbers and other personal

`

`
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’812
`’598
`
`• In the Petition, Petitioner
`and its expert argued that
`Reber approves a
`transaction without the
`merchant [i.e., provider]
`receiving “any account
`identifying information.”
`
`• USR showed Petitioner
`was wrong. Reber
`discloses transmitting
`account identifying
`information to the provider.

`USR Proves Reber Transmits Account Identifying Information To
`The Provider Under Petitioner’s Own Construction
`
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’812
`’598
`’267
`• There is no disclosure in
`Reber that account
`identifying information is not
`sent to the provider.
`
`• Instead, Reber discloses
`alleged secure registry
`(database 66 in computer
`64) may send “name” and
`“address” of the “second
`party” [i.e., purchaser/end
`user 26]” to the first party
`[i.e., alleged provider].

`“creates a record” that

`
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT ONLY – NOT EVIDENCE
`
`Ex. 2108 (Jakobsson Decl.), ¶40.
`
`• Reber also discloses that the
`alleged provider [i.e.,
`computer 20] can “send[] an
`item to the party.” A POSITA
`would understand that to
`send the item the alleged
`provider would have the
`name and address of the
`customer.

`’812
`’598
`
`’267
`
`Ex. 1132, Franklin at 9:49-58
`
`• Franklin discloses customer-
`specific data (e.g., “card-
`holder’s name” and “account
`number”) are “pre-known or
`made available” to the
`merchant [i.e., provider].
`
`• “Name” and “account

`
`• Petitioner’s new argument
`that the “without

`Petitioner Relies On Claim 4 To Supports Its New Construction:
`
`Petitioner Has Not Shown Its New Claim Construction Is Proper
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’267
`’812
`’598
`• Petitioner argues that
`claim 4 teaches the
`“without providing account
`identifying information to
`the provider” limitation is
`met where some account
`identifying information
`(e.g., customer address) is
`sent to the provider.
`
`• Tellingly, Petitioner did not
`rely upon claim 4 in the
`Petition. Petitioner is also
`wrong because claim 4
`discloses that address
`information is sent to the
`“third party”—it is not sent
`to the provider.
`
`33
`
`Reply (Paper 30) at 2.
`But Claim 4 Discloses The Address Information Is Sent To The
`Third Party, Not The Provider:

`

`Petitioner’s Reliance On The Specification Is Misplaced
`
`Petitioner argues in some embodiments account identifying
`information can be sent to the provider (e.g., Fig. 9):
`
`Ex. 1101, ‘539 patent at 12:55-63;
`Reply (Paper 30) at 2-3.
`But patent does
`not need to claim
`every disclosure in
`the specification:
`
`’267
`
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’812
`’598
`
`• Whether the specification
`provides examples where
`a user’s name or address
`is provided to a merchant
`is irrelevant: claims define
`the scope of the invention,
`not the specification.
`
`• A patent does not need to
`claim every disclosure or
`embodiment. Here, claims
`expressly claim “account
`identifying information is
`not provided to the
`provider.”

`Franklin’s Merchant Validation Is Not A Disclosure Of Access Restrictions For
`The Provider
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’812
`’598
`’267
`• Petitioner argues obvious to
`incorporate Franklin’s
`merchant validation.
`
`• Merchant validation is not a
`disclosure of access
`restrictions and is not
`performed by the secure
`registry.
`
`• Petitioner also fails to show
`motivation to combine Reber
`and Franklin for this
`limitation.

`Reber And Franklin Fail To Disclose Access Restriction Limitation Under PO’s
`Construction
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’267
`’812
`’598
`
`• Franklin’s merchant
`validation simply verifies
`that the merchant is a valid
`merchant.
`
`• Franklin’s merchant
`validation is not a disclosure
`of a restriction specific to
`the provider that indicates
`what secure data may or
`may not be accessed, and
`is also not “two or more”
`restrictions.”

`

`Petitioner Does Not Even Attempt To Show Reber and Franklin Discloses “Two
`Or More Restrictions” For The Provider
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’267
`’812
`’598
`
`• Petitioner points only to
`Franklin’s merchant
`validation. Petitioner does
`not (and cannot) point to
`disclosure of “two or more”
`restrictions for the provider.
`
`• Claims 1, 22 and 37 (and
`their dependent claims) are
`not unpatentable if the
`Board concludes “access
`restrictions” [plural]
`requires more than one
`access restriction.

`Patent Discloses That Merchant Validation ≠ Access Restrictions
`
`Even If PO’s Construction Is Not Adopted, Petitioner Has Failed To Show
`Determining Compliance With Access Restriction For The Provider
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’267
`’812
`’598
`• ‘539 patent makes clear
`that “validating requestor’s
`identity” [i.e., the merchant
`validation] is not the same
`as “correlating the identity,
`the requested information
`and the access information”
`to determine “whether the
`requester has the right to
`access the requested data
`type” [i.e., “determining
`compliance with access
`restrictions of the provider”].

`
`Ex. 1101, ‘539 Patent at 10:40-48;

`’598
`
`• The Board already

`
`Reber:
`
`Ex. 1131, Reber at 6:17-29.
`
`• According to the Petition,
`Reber only allegedly
`discloses: (1) an entity (end
`user 26), (2) a provider
`(computer 20), and (3) a
`secure registry (computer
`64).
`
`• Like Reber, Franklin also
`discloses a single-
`component backend (bank
`computing center 32) that
`performs all financial
`processing.

`A POSITA Would Not Be Motivated to Modify Reber To
`Include a Redundant Feature
`
`’267
`
`ASSERTED PATENT
`’812
`’598
`
`• Reber’s computer 64 (the
`alleged secure registry)
`is a self-contained
`component that already
`performs all the backend
`functions of a financial
`institution.
`• Consequently, a POSITA
`would have no motivation
`to add another backend
`component that merely
`adds the redundant
`feature of financial
`transaction processing.

`Petitioner’s Alleged Motivation to Modify Reber Is
`Based on Impermissible Hindsight
`
`’267
`

`’812
`’598
`
`• As alleged motivation to modify
`Reber, Petitioner relies
`primarily on disclosures within
`the ’539 Patent itself.
`• But, doing so is improper
`because Petitioner’s
`obviousness analysis must
`“avoid hindsight reconstruction
`by using the patent in suit as
`a guide through the maze of
`prior art references, combining
`the right references in the right
`way so as to achieve the result
`of the claims in suit.” In re NTP,
`Inc., 654 F.3d 1279, 1299 (Fed.

`its task of authenticating the
`second data element and (2)
`this core responsibility could
`be shifted over to Franklin’s
`backend processing
`network.

`“a third party (such as a

`“Whether a rejection is based on combining disclosures from multiple

`expectation that such a combination would be successful, otherwise a
