`U.S. Patent No. 8,382,186
`Counsel for the parties have conferred and agreed that Petitioner’s cross-
`
`examination by deposition of the Patent Owner’s witness will be held at the date
`
`and time indicated below. This cross-examination will concern the instant
`
`proceeding, as well as related proceeding IPR2020-01142.
`
`The cross-examination will be conducted remotely using video
`
`teleconferencing service(s) and/or telephony service(s) that provide remote access
`
`for authorized parties wishing to participate in the deposition via the Internet
`
`and/or telephonically.

`
`Bruce D. Popp, PhD
`
`Location:
`
`Dr. Popp will be located in Harrisburg, PA. The
`
`parties participating in the deposition, including
`
`the examining attorneys, the defending attorneys,
`
`and the court reporter, will be participating from
`
`geographic locations different than Dr. Popp.
`
`The cross-examination will be recorded stenographically by a court reporter
`
`authorized by law to administer oaths. It will also be transcribed by real-time
`
`reporting software.
`
`Given that strong and continuous Internet connectivity of a remote
`
`deposition is crucial, a test may be conducted with all parties prior to the

`deposition date. If connectivity or other technical issues arise during the test that
`
`cannot be corrected before the deposition date, then an alternative deposition date
`
`will be scheduled. If connectivity or other technical issues arise during the course
`
`of the deposition and are not corrected such that the deposition cannot be
`
`completed on the deposition date, an alternative deposition date will be used to
`
`complete the deposition.
