`Petition for Inter Partes Review of U.S. Patent 8,539,047
`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Petitioner PayPal, Inc. (“PayPal”) requests IPR of claims 1, 7, 9-11, 14, 16-
`
`17 of U.S. Patent No. 8,539,047 (the “’047 patent,” Ex. 1001). This petition is
`
`focused on dependent claims 10-11, and 17. All other claims of the ’047 patent are
`
`challenged in PayPal’s concurrently filed IPR2019-00844. Discussion of claims 1,
`
`7, 9, 14, and 16 is identical to IPR2019-00844 and is included here only because
`
`these claims underlie dependent claims 10-11, and 17.
`
`II. MANDATORY NOTICES
`A. Real Party-In-Interest
`
`The real parties-in-interest are PayPal, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
`
`PayPal Holdings, Inc., and PayPal Holdings, Inc.
`
`B. Related Matters
`
`The following judicial or administrative matters may affect, or be affected by,
`
`a decision in this proceeding: IOENGINE, LLC v. PayPal Holdings, Inc., No. 1:18-
`
`cv-00452-WCB (D. Del. Mar. 23, 2018) (the “PayPal case”) and Ingenico Inc. v
`
`IOENGINE, LLC, 1:18-cv-00826-WCB (D. Del. June 1, 2018) (the “Ingenico
`
`case”). In both cases, patent owner IOENGINE, LLC (“IONEGINE”) asserts
`
`infringement of the ’047 patent. In addition to the ’047 patent, IOENGINE is
`
`asserting infringement of two additional patents related to the ’047 patent (i.e., U.S.
`
`Patent Nos. 9,059,969 and 9,774,703) separately against PayPal and Ingenico in

`
`and thus PayPal did not receive any tactical advantage from the Ingenico IPR.
`
`Finally, given that PayPal’s IPRs are starkly different than the IPR filed by Ingenico,
`
`the Board is justified in expending its resources to consider PayPal’s IPRs, and there
`
`is no known reason the Board cannot issue final determinations within one year of
`
`institution. For these reasons, the instant IPR should be instituted. See General
`
`Plastic Industrial Co., Ltd. v. Canon Kabushiki Kaisha, Case IPR2016-01357, Paper
`
`19 at 15-22 (PTAB Sept. 6, 2017).

`
`The pre-AIA §102(b) date for the ’047 patent is March 23, 2003, based on the
`
`earliest effective filing date of March 23, 2004. Shmueli, Fung, and Shima are prior
`
`art under §102(b) and Abbott is prior art under §102(e).
`
`Ground 1: Claims 1, 7, 9, 14, and 16 are obvious under §103 in view of
`
`Abbott in combination with Shmueli.
`
`Ground 2: Claims 10 and 17 are obvious under §103 in view of Abbott in
`
`combination with Shmueli and Fung.
`
`Ground 3: Claim 11 is obvious under §103 in view of Abbott in combination
`
`with Shmueli and Shima.
`
`3. Claim Construction
`
`A claim subject to IPR is construed “in accordance with the ordinary and
`
`customary meaning of such claim as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art
`
`and the prosecution history pertaining to the patent.” 42 C.F.R. §42.100(b).
