`PATENT OWNERS’ REQUEST FOR ORAL ARGUMENT
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Proceeding No. IPR2020-01386
`Attorney Docket No. 36351-0018IP1
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a) and the Scheduling Order (Paper 14), Paice
`
`LLC and the Abell Foundation, Inc. (Patent Owners) submit this Request for Oral
`
`Argument on all of the instituted grounds of unpatentability of U.S. Patent No.
`
`7,237,634. Patent Owners request (without waiving consideration of any issue not
`
`listed below) to address the grounds on which the IPR was instituted and any
`
`additional issues on which the Board seeks clarification. Patent Owners request 60
`
`minutes for each side to present arguments collectively for this proceeding. Due to
`
`the substantial overlap in issues and prior art, Patent Owners respectfully request
`
`that the Board refrain from issuing its Final Written Decision in IPR2020-00994
`
`until after the oral argument in this proceeding.
`
`To the extent the oral argument, which will be held November 9, 2021, is
`
`scheduled as an in-person hearing, Patent Owners request to use video equipment
`
`to display exhibits, including the use of a projector/screen for a PowerPoint display
`
`or the like.
