`PATENT OWNER’S OBJECTIONS
`TO PETITIONER’S DEMONSTRATIVE
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2018-01342 (’535 Patent)
`Patent Owner’s Objections to Petitioner’s Demonstratives
`
`
`Petitioner filed 137 total demonstrative slides in the two IPRs consolidated
`
`
`
`for oral argument (Ex. 1036 in IPR2018-01342 and Ex. 1030 in IPR2018-01331).
`
`Patent Owner objects to only a small subset of slides in view of the Board’s
`
`guidance in its oral argument order. See Paper 37 at 4 (“The parties are advised to
`
`limit objections to demonstrative exhibits to egregious violations that are
`
`prejudicial to the administration of justice.”).
`
`The following slides are improper because they attempt to expand the scope
`
`of this IPR proceeding beyond the theories and grounds identified in the Petition.
`
`See 35 U.S.C. § 312(c) (requiring petition to identify “in writing and with
`
`particularity, each claim challenged, the grounds on which the challenge to each
`
`claim is based, and the evidence that supports the grounds for the challenge to each
`
`claim”). For example, the slides allege that the term “access profile” in claims 1
`
`and 14 of the ’535 patent would have been obvious, but no such obviousness
`
`theory was presented in the instituted grounds for those claims (Grounds 1 and 2).
`
`See Acceleration Bay, LLC v. Activision Blizzard Inc., 908 F.3d 765, 775 (Fed. Cir.
`
`2018) (rejecting “a new obviousness argument for [a particular] limitation that
`
`could have been made in the petition . . . which proposed that [the prior art]
`
`rendered obvious a number of other claim limitations. [Petitioner] had an
`
`opportunity to present this argument in its petition, but chose not to.”).

`Patent Owner’s Objections to Petitioner’s Demonstratives
`
`
`Patent Owner’s Objections to
`Petitioner’s Demonstratives (Ex. 1036)
`
`These slides allege that Dvir satisfies Realtime’s construction of
`“access profile.” But the Petition did not consider any alternate
`constructions of “access profile” or present any theories or evidence
`under other constructions. Further, the Petition could have accounted
`for Realtime’s construction because it comes directly from the
`specification at ’535 patent, at 8:8–12.
`
`44–46, 47 These slides allege that Dvir renders obvious “access profile.” But
`this obviousness theory was never presented in the Petition. Ground
`1 is limited to anticipation and Ground 2 never mentions the term
`“access profile.”
`
`51–52
`
`
`These slides allege that Dvir discloses “asymmetric” compression
`under Realtime’s construction. But the Petition did not consider
`Realtime’s construction or present any theories or evidence under
`that construction. Further, the Petition could have accounted for
`Realtime’s construction because it is the definition of “asymmetric”
`compression given in patent. See ’535 patent at 9:63–67.
