`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`
`I, Clifton Kagawa, declare and state as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am Chief Executive Officer and a director and founder of Broadband
`
`iTV, Inc. (“BBiTV”). I reside in Hawaii and have been the CEO of BBiTV since
`
`2001.
`
`2. My background as a businessman includes having served as a board
`
`member and Asia Pacific Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for international
`
`public relations firm Hill & Knowlton. I held a similar position with international
`
`public relations firm Burson-Marsteller and served on parent company Young &
`
`Rubicam’s advisory board of directors. Prior to working in Asia with these firms, I
`
`was majority shareholder of Hawaii-based Communications-Pacific, one of the top
`
`50 independent public relations firms in the U.S. at the time of its acquisition by
`
`London-based WPP Group. I am and have been active in community organizations
`
`including serving on the boards of the Rotary Club of Honolulu, Hawaii Chamber
`
`of Commerce, Aloha United Way, the Economic Development Corporation of
`
`Honolulu, and Chaminade University.
`
`3.
`
`BBiTV was formed in year 2001. BBiTV built its business as an
`
`operating company for five years, and later shifted its focus toward IP
`
`development and licensing. Chief Technology Officer Milton Diaz Perez is the
`
`inventor of all BBiTV patents and continues in that role. The company has not
`
`acquired any of its patents; instead, its entire portfolio of patents stems directly

`

`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`from the leading-edge interactive television platform, Web CMS, and VOD
`
`applications that BBiTV, led by Mr. Perez, designed and launched from 2003
`
`through 2006.
`
`4.
`
`BBiTV’s board of directors consists of myself along with senior
`
`experienced professionals such as Mr. Tony Thornley, who formerly served as
`
`President and Chief Operating Officer of QUALCOMM Incorporated; who
`
`served as President and Chief Executive Officer of Callaway Golf Company;
`
`and who worked for Nortel Networks for 16 years, serving in various financial
`
`and information systems management positions including Vice President of
`
`Public Networks, Vice President of Finance NT World Trade, and Corporate
`
`Controller Northern Telecom Limited. BBiTV’s business and board of directors
`
`are described on our web site: https://www.broadband-itv.com/.
`
`5.
`
`BBiTV was an early contributor in the development of on-demand
`
`and interactive technology for the cable sector. The company began operating in
`
`2001 in Hawaii, which was known in the cable industry then as one of the most
`
`innovative cable markets due to it being an island market removed from major US
`
`metropolitan markets. This has allowed it to become a natural technology test bed.
`
`6.
`
`BBiTV launched two critical, first-to-market development projects in
`
`the US. These included an interactive community channel enabling community
`
`members to communicate, as well as to buy and sell goods and services, and a Web
`
`
`
`- 2 -

`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`platform allowing content producers, businesses, community organizations, and
`
`individuals to publish video content directly to the television. BBiTV has also
`
`designed systems for television video personals, video greeting cards, talent
`
`contests and promotions, and music videos. These projects, among other work and
`
`R&D, became the basis for the beginning of BBiTV’s patent portfolio.
`
`7.
`
`In its time as an operating company, BBiTV launched Promo! in
`
`partnership with Oceanic Time Warner Cable (TWC) (now Charter
`
`Communications), which to my knowledge was the nation’s first interactive cable
`
`channel featuring long form videos on local and national products and services in
`
`2003. BBiTV continued its partnership with Oceanic Time Warner Cable and also
`
`launched the “TVClassifieds” application in 2005. The company was also a
`
`consultant on other Oceanic Time Warner Cable applications in 2005 and 2006.
`
`8. Mr. Milton Perez joined BBiTV during April or May of 2003, as a
`
`consultant.
`
`9. Mr. Perez is an inventor, and he became Chief Technology Officer
`
`for BBiTV in September 2003. He has held that position through present day,
`
`and continues today as our CTO. His responsibilities have included overseeing
`
`the company’s technology development projects, using his over 35 years of
`
`experience in software and product development and 25 years developing
`
`interactive platforms for the lodging, cable, and web industries. Mr. Perez’s
`

`
`PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL
`
`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`past experience includes serving as Senior Vice President of engineering and
`
`network, from 1998 to 2002, at StarMedia Network, Inc., the largest operator of
`
`community and portal websites in Latin America. StarMedia was acquired, in
`
`part, by Yahoo! and other web media companies. Mr. Perez is also the former
`
`Vice President of Engineering at GuestServe, a San Francisco company that
`
`developed highly advanced, cost-effective interactive TV systems for cable.
`
`GuestServe was acquired by SeaChange, Inc., a leader in digital video servers.
`
`Mr. Perez holds a BS in Electrical Engineering and a BA in Art History from
`
`Columbia University.
`
`10. At BBiTV, we tasked Mr. Perez with assisting with the company’s
`
`efforts to commercialize a product to sell ads on cable networks. When he joined
`
`the company, we had a product, Promo!, which was a VOD-based advertising
`
`product built on the Scientific Atlanta XOD platform, and publicly accessible on
`
`Time Warner Cable Oceanic (“TWC”) channel 327. He worked on improving the
`
`capabilities of the Promo! system, which essentially led to replacing that system
`
`and developing a replacement platform.
`
`11. As I explain in more detail in this declaration, I was personally
`
`involved in the events, and I know and corroborate Mr. Perez’s conception of the
`
`inventions described in the ’026 patent by March 30, 2004, which BBiTV then
`
`filed the parent application of on July 30, 2004. In February 2004, Mr. Perez
`
`
`
`- 4 -
`
`PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL
`
`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`discussed with me certain inventions described in the ’026 patent and the March
`
`2004 Draft Application (“March Draft”) (explained below), which were then set
`
`forth in the final version of U.S. Patent Application 10/909,192 (“’192
`
`application”), filed on July 30, 2004. EX2062. In February 2004, Mr. Perez also
`
`prepared and explained to me a presentation showing how the hierarchical menu of
`
`his invention would work (the “February Presentation”). EX2072. EX2072 is a
`
`true and correct copy of a document shown to me by Mr. Perez in February 2004.
`
`12. Mr. Perez did so consistent with and in accordance with the ordinary
`
`business practices of BBiTV at the time when Mr. Perez would discuss new ideas
`
`for product development and intellectual property with myself, the CEO of the
`
`company. This was done as part of the process for Mr. Perez to obtain approval to
`
`proceed with product development and to apply for patent protection. The process
`
`included him preparing a presentation showing how the system’s hierarchical EPG
`
`and layered templates would work. After Mr. Perez discussed with me subject
`
`matter in the ’026 patent, the March Draft, and the ’192 application, I provided Mr.
`
`Perez with authorization to proceed with product development and the patenting of
`
`his invention. Following my authorization, BBiTV’s patent attorney, Mr. Leighton
`
`Chong, was engaged to file a patent application on Mr. Perez’s invention. I
`
`supervised Mr. Perez during this entire time period, and closely monitored the
`
`progress and observed as he worked on developing the inventions described in the
`

`’026 patent, working very hard and diligently essentially every day leading up to
`
`our filing of BBiTV’s ’192 patent application on July 30, 2004. The timely filing
`
`of the ’192 application was a priority for BBiTV as the patent would assist BBiTV
`
`in obtaining funding for the business to develop products and its business plan was
`
`to be the first to market. EX2178. EX2178 is a true and correct copy of our
`
`business plan that reflected our business plan at the time.
`
`I.
`
`Background Leading To BBiTV Filing Its 7/30/2004 Patent Application
`
`13.
`
`In June of 2003, BBiTV became introduced to Navic Networks, which
`
`offered a platform on Time Warner Cable Oceanic head ends. BBiTV was
`
`interested in transitioning our technology onto the Navic platform to permit us to
`
`create custom user interfaces and video controls to replace the poorly performing
`
`XOD frontend of Promo! We referred to this among our team internally as the
`
`“Version 2.0” product.
`
`14. We signed a letter expressing interest in working with Navic in July of
`
`2003, and had meetings with Navic to explore Navic’s capabilities (see, e.g.,
`
`EX2047, reflecting a meeting with Navic in July 2003). EX2047 is a true and
`
`correct copy of an email I received on 7/14/2003.
`
`15. With Mr. Perez’s guidance in the development of BBiTV’s system,
`
`we also focused on replacing the backend video delivery system with a more
`
`streamlined service over the Internet.

`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`In September of 2003, Mr. Perez became the CTO of BBiTV full
`
`16.
`
`time. He was tasked with and worked on projects including developing our new
`
`VOD products, applying for patents on the technologies that BBiTV was
`
`developing, and securing funding for the company to develop and market new
`
`VOD products.
`
`17.
`
`In late 2003 and early 2004, he prepared specifications and flow
`
`charts for the new products, including those described in EX2050-EX2054.
`
`EX2050 is a true and accurate copy of a draft document shown to me by Mr. Perez
`
`in December 2003. EX2051 is a true and accurate copy of a draft document shown
`
`to me by Mr. Perez in December 2003. EX2052 is a true and accurate copy of a
`
`draft document shown to me by Mr. Perez in December 2003. EX2053 is a true
`
`and accurate copy of a draft document shown to me by Mr. Perez in January 2004.
`
`EX2054 is a true and accurate copy of a draft document shown to me by Mr. Perez
`
`in January 2004.
`
`18. BBiTV also, with Milton’s guidance, brought on Ms. Nicole Nestel as
`
`a product manager and Ms. Kim Wall as a graphic designer to assist with creating
`
`the design of our products.
`
`19. BBiTV signed a developer agreement with Navic on December 7,
`
`2003 to work with Navic to implement the VOD capability for BBiTV’s products
`
`on Navic’s platform. See EX2057. EX2057 is a true and correct copy of an email I

`
`- 7 -

`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`sent to John Hoctor at Navic Networks on 12/7/2003. Mr. Perez, assisted by Ms.
`
`Wall and Ms. Nestel, would meet with Navic frequently during the course of these
`
`activities, for example by attending a “developer training event” in January 2004.
`
`See, e.g., EX2058, 3. I also attended meetings with our BBiTV team and Navic
`
`during this time frame.
`
`20. As Mr. Perez explained to me during this time frame, it was important
`
`to also develop a web-based video uploading solution. In connection with this
`
`aspect of building our business, he met with vendors—for example, InDemand,
`
`one of the largest providers of ingestion and processing services—in January of
`
`2004. See EX2059. EX2059 is a true and correct copy of emails exchanged
`
`between myself and Mr. Perez on 1/27/2004. Mr. Perez explained to me, among
`
`other things, that it was not possible for market participants at that time to provide
`
`the functionality that he envisioned, and he proposed that BBiTV would have to
`
`design and create a web-based content management system (WBCMS) itself.
`
`21.
`
`I understand from having managed and working closely with Mr.
`
`Perez that he conceived of certain inventions described in the ’026 patent in the
`
`first quarter of year 2004, and by no later than March 31, 2004. On that date,
`
`March 31, 2004, Mr. Leighton Chong, who was BBiTV’s patent attorney at that
`
`time, sent to Mr. Perez and me an early draft of a patent application (EX2061
`
`March Draft) that later resulted in U.S. Patent Application 10/909,192 (EX2062,
`
`
`
`- 8 -
`
`PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL
`
`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`’192 application) filed on July 30, 2004. I understand that the ’192 application
`
`issued as U.S. Patent No. 7,590,997 (“’997 patent”).
`
`22.
`
`In March 2004, Mr. Perez was working closely with me; I was his
`
`supervisor, and he disclosed to me certain subject matter described in the ’026
`
`patent. As the CTO of BBiTV, he discussed that subject matter with me during the
`
`course of discussing product development of the next generation of BBiTV
`
`products. He did so during the course of our work together to obtain permission to
`
`pursue applying for patents on his inventions which were developed while working
`
`at BBiTV.
`
`23. Mr. Perez communicated the subject matter of his inventions to
`
`BBiTV’s patent attorney, Mr. Leighton Chong, who proceeded to draft the patent
`
`application that became the ’192 application. I would discuss the progress and
`
`status of these events with Mr. Perez and also with Mr. Chong.
`
`24.
`
`In early March 2004, on or around March 3, 2004, Mr. Perez, while
`
`reporting to me as CEO of BBiTV, met with Mr. Chong to discuss patenting
`
`certain inventions described in the ’026 patent as well as related inventions.
`
`EX2063. I reviewed the March Draft and the ’192 application, and these are the
`
`inventions that Mr. Perez explained to me; he advised me that he communicated to
`
`our patent attorney, Mr. Chong, at that time. During the course of his work, Mr.
`
`
`
`- 9 -
`
`PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL
`
`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`Perez regularly reported to me the events and status of obtaining patent protection
`
`for these inventions that were an important part of our company’s business.
`
`25. While meeting with Mr. Chong, I understood that Mr. Perez created
`
`an updated roadmap of the different parts of the VOD system, as shown in
`
`EX2063. Under my supervision as CEO of BBiTV, Mr. Perez as CTO
`
`communicated with Mr. Chong throughout March 2004 for us to understand status
`
`and updates on the drafting of BBiTV’s patent specification for patenting of the
`
`inventions that Mr. Perez had developed. EX2064; EX2065.
`
`26. Mr. Perez prepared a first draft of a patent specification, which
`
`contained the major features of the system in a document that I understand is
`
`marked for identification with a number, EX2066, titled “Consumer Content patent
`
`outline v2.doc.” I understand that the document has a document creation date of
`
`3/24/2004 and date last modified date of 3/26/2004. These dates are consistent with
`
`when Mr. Perez sent Mr. Chong the first draft of the patent specification on March
`
`29, 2004. EX2068.
`
`27. Mr. Perez kept me informed as he worked with Mr. Chong to prepare
`
`BBiTV’s patent application and while preparing to seek patent protection for the
`
`inventions that he developed while working at BBiTV. Mr. Chong replied on
`
`March 30, 2004, noting that the text that Mr. Perez prepared reflects what Mr.
`
`Chong and Mr. Perez wrote out during meetings, and asked for diagrams that Mr.
`
`

`- 10 -

`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`Perez had drawn on a whiteboard. On the next day, March 31, 2004, Mr. Chong
`
`sent the March Draft to Mr. Perez and me. EX2060; EX2061. EX2060 is a true and
`
`correct copy of an email sent to me by Mr. Chong on 3/31/2004. EX2061 is a true
`
`and correct copy of a document attached to EX2060 and received by me on
`
`3/31/2004.
`
`28. During the time period from March 2004 to July 30, 2004, as I explain
`
`above, Mr. Perez was the Chief Technology Officer of BBiTV and I was the CEO
`
`of the company.
`
`29. During that time period, Mr. Perez had various responsibilities as the
`
`company’s CTO, including development of new products, maintaining current
`
`products, and meeting with funders to raise money for further investments in
`
`BBiTV. He was required during that time to travel a lot and attend meetings,
`
`seeking to obtain funding for the development and marketing of BBiTV products.
`
`Those meetings, most of which I attended, included meeting with venture capital
`
`and other firms.
`
`30. During May and June 2004, Mr. Perez and I met with numerous
`
`investors as part of raising funds for BBiTV’s B Round. For example, during
`
`March, we met with Venture Capital groups (“VCs”) on 3/26 and 3/29 in Oahu.
`
`EX2073. EX2073 is a true and accurate copy of an email I sent on 3/22/2004. In
`
`April, we flew to Boston and had multiple venture capital (“VC”) meetings from

`
`weeks of June, we also flew to both New York and Boston for more VC meetings.

`
`6/3/2004. EX2088 is a true and accurate copy of an email I sent on 6/10/2004.
`
`Further meetings followed in June, such as on 6/22 (EX2090) and 6/25 (EX2091).
`
`EX2091 is a true and accurate copy of an email I received on 6/24/2004. During
`
`company meetings, we discussed the status of VC conversations. EX2093;
`
`EX2094. EX2094 is a true and accurate copy of an email I sent on 5/21/2004.
`
`31. Mr. Perez was also responsible for overseeing the development of
`
`BBiTV’s product and business planning and technology, including working closely
`
`

`- 12 -
`
`PROTECTIVE ORDER MATERIAL
`
`

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`with me as CEO, as well as with Ms. Nicole Nestel and Ms. Kim Wall, in
`
`developing our products. He was working hard on both the business and
`
`technology development of BBiTV, as well as devoting as much of his time as
`
`possible to working on BBiTV’s patent application.
`
`32. On March 31, 2004, as I explain above, the first draft of the ’192
`
`application, i.e., the March Draft, was sent from Mr. Chong to Mr. Perez and me.
`
`EX2060. Mr. Perez discussed with me the progress and hard work he was doing to
`
`prepare BBiTV’s patent application during this time frame up until it was filed on
`
`July 30, 2004.
`
`33. From March through June 14, 2004, Mr. Perez worked diligently to
`
`review and provide comments on the draft patent application and the related
`
`figures for the ’192 application, while keeping me informed, and I understood that
`
`Mr. Chong worked on revising BBiTV’s patent application. EX2102; EX2104;
`
`EX105; EX2106; EX2110; EX2111; EX2103, ¶10. During this time period, Mr.
`
`Perez would give me regular updates and I understand there was a steady back and
`
`forth of communications between BBiTV (via Mr. Perez) and our patent attorney,
`
`Mr. Chong, in the course of preparing the ’192 application.
`
`34. There were also meetings with Mr. Chong in the course of preparing
`
`the ’192 application. Mr. Perez lived in California and Mr. Chong lived in Hawaii.
`
`Accordingly, we arranged to meet in-person to discuss the disclosure of the ’192
`
`
`
`- 13 -

`

`Case IPR2020-01267
`U.S. Patent No. 10,028,026
`application, and a meeting was held on the evening of June 15, 2004 while Mr.
`
`Perez was in Hawaii. EX2106.
`
`35. After the June 15, 2004 meeting, Mr. Chong and Mr. Perez continued
`
`to diligently revise the ’192 application from June 16-22, 2004.
`
`36. Mr. Chong and Mr. Perez met, for example, on June 22, 2004 to
`
`further discuss the ’192 application. EX2107. They met again on June 24, 2004 to
`
`further discuss the contents and disclosure of the ’192 application. EX2108.
`
`37. After the June 24, 2004 meeting, Mr. Perez continued working on the
`
`drawings for the ’192 application and he kept me informed of the progress of his
`
`work and the preparation of BBiTV’s ’192 patent application. EX2109.
`
`38. By June 27, 2004, Mr. Perez finished the drawings for Figures 1a and
`
`1b, continuing on the work from the June 24, 2004 meeting with Mr. Chong.
`
`EX2110; EX2111.
`
`39. As Mr. Perez reported to me at the time, he worked continuously and
`
`diligently to draft the figures and prepare BBiTV’s ’192 patent application,
`
`completing this work by the end of June 2004 and continuing to communicate with
`
`Mr. Chong as well as with myself. EX2110-EX2116; EX2103, ¶10.
`
`40. As Mr. Perez reported to me and kept me informed as we were
`
`preparing to file BBiTV’s ’192 patent application during July 2004, Mr. Perez
`
`continually worked with Mr. Chong in preparing BBiTV’s patent application while
`

`

`
`preparing to finalize and file BBiTV’s ’192 patent application.
`
`42. On July 28, 2004, as BBiTV’s CEO, I gave approval for Mr. Chong to
`
`file BBiTV’s ’192 application and he filed it on July 30, 2004.
`
`43.
`
`I was closely supervising Mr. Perez and the team at BBiTV during the
`
`period from March 31, 2004 through July 30, 2004 when BBiTV’s ’192 patent
`
`application was filed. Mr. Perez was working hard during this time period on his
`
`various responsibilities as CTO of the company and on preparing our patent
`
`application. As his direct supervisor, I knew he was working nearly every day
`
`during that period to attend to his responsibilities.
`

`
`In particular, he worked on developing the inventions that we applied
`
`to patent in the ’192 patent application, continuing to develop these inventions
`
`nearly every day from March 2004 until we filed BBiTV’s ’192 patent application
`
`on July 30, 2004, in addition to his other responsibilities as our CTO including
`
`product development and meetings seeking to raise capital for the company’s
`
