`
`Niantic’s Proposed
`Construction and Support
`Proposed Construction: See
`above for the term “tessellated
`tiles.” It is presently unclear
`why NantWorks wishes to
`construe the entire claim
`element, or why plain and
`ordinary meaning does not
`suffice for the remainder.
`See above for the term
`“tessellated tiles.”

`III.
`
`IDENTIFICATIONS OF SIGNIFICANT TERMS AND WHETHER THOSE
`TERMS WILL BE CASE OR CLAIM DISPOSITIVE (PLR 4-3(c))
`In Section II above, NantWorks and Niantic have consolidated their proposed terms for
`construction to a total of ten (10) terms, which include the case or claim dispositive terms for the
`Court’s consideration. NantWorks additionally identifies the following terms as the most
`significant terms: “alter presence” / “altered presence” (’051 Patent, claim 1), “determine whether
`to alter presence of a relevant AR object based on at least the device location and the virtual
`element attribute” (’051 Patent, claim 1), “obtain[ing] an area of interest via an area database
`based on at least the device location within the sensor data” (’518 Patent, claim 1), and “an area
`tile map of the area of interest, the area tile map represented by a set of tile subareas that includes
`one or more tessellated tiles from a tessellated tile map” (’518 Patent, claim 1).
`Niantic identifies the following terms as the most significant terms: “alter presence” /
`“altered presence” (’051 Patent, claim 1), “AR object repository” / “AR repository” (’051 Patent,
`claim 1), “associated with” (’518 Patent, claim 1).
`IV.
`ANTICIPATED LENGTH OF TIME NECESSARY FOR THE CLAIM
`CONSTRUCTION HEARING (PLR 4-3(d))
`NantWorks and Niantic believe that two to three hours would be sufficient for the claim
`construction hearing.
`V.
`IDENTITY OF ANTICIPATED WITNESSES (PLR 4-3(e))
`At this time, neither NantWorks nor Niantic intends to call any witnesses at the claim
`construction hearing.
`VI.
`FACTUAL FINDINGS REQUESTED FROM THE COURT RELATED TO CLAIM
`CONSTRUCTION (PLR 4-3(f))

`issues presented here are pure questions of law.
