`Petitioner specifies, without intent to waive consideration of any issue not
`
`requested, the following issues to be argued:
`
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`the interpretation of certain claim limitations of U.S. Patent 7,016,676
`
`(“the ’676 patent”);

`the public availability of the prior art references cited in the Petition;
`
`and
`
`the grounds of unpatentability of claims 1 and 2 of the ’676 patent
`
`presented in the Petition including:
`
`o
