`U.S. Patent No. 8,603,044
`
`
`
`
`
`PATENT OWNER’S REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT1
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 Pfizer Inc., who filed petition in IPR2019-00977, has been joined as petitioner in
`
`this proceeding.
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70 and the Board’s Scheduling Order, Patent
`
`Owner respectfully submits this Request for Oral Argument. The Board has
`
`currently scheduled the oral hearing in IPR2018-01675 for January 14-15, 2020.
`
`Patent Owner specifies the following issues to be argued:
`
`• The instituted ground of unpatentability in this proceeding: Ground 1
`
`(alleged obviousness of claims 11, 14, 15, 18, and 19 by Burroughs);
`
`• Patent Owner’s List of Improper Reply Arguments (Paper 63);
`
`• Any issues raised in Motions to Exclude; and
`
`• Any other issues the Board deems necessary for issuing a final written
`
`decision.
`
`The parties have conferred and agree to a combined three-hour hearing in
`
`IPR2018-01670, IPR2018-01675, IPR2018-01676, IPR2018-01678, IPR2018-
`
`01684, and IPR2019-00122. Patent Owner hereby requests a combined hearing in
`
`IPR2018-01670, IPR2018-01675, IPR2018-01676, IPR2018-01678, IPR2018-
`
`01684, and IPR2019-00122, to be held in the afternoon on January 14, 2020. Patent
`
`Owner further requests ninety minutes of total time to address the issues identified
`
`in Patent Owner’s Requests for Oral Argument in these IPRs. To the extent the
`
`Board schedules the combined hearing to last more than three hours, however, Patent
`
`Owner requests that it be given half the length of the hearing to address all issues
`
`raised in these proceedings.
`
`2
`
`
`
`Patent Owner requests that ten spaces be reserved at the oral hearing to
`
`accommodate its counsel and corporate representatives.
`
`

`Dated: November 19, 2019
