`U.S. Patent No. 6,411,941
`Pursuant
`to 37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54, Patent Owner Ancora
`
`Technologies, Inc. (“Ancora”) respectfully submits this Motion to Seal Ancora’s
`
`Oral Hearing Demonstrative Exhibit 2052 filed concurrently with this Motion.
`
`Ancora is concurrently filing a redacted version of Exhibit 2052. Petitioners do not
`
`oppose this motion.
`
`Pursuant to the Trial Practice Guide July 2019 Update, “[t]he terms of a
`
`protective order take effect upon the filing of a Motion to Seal by a party, and remain
`
`in place until lifted or modified by the Board either on the motion of a party for good
`
`cause shown or sua sponte by the Board.” (Appendix B, § (b).) Accordingly, Ancora
`
`understands that the protective order (Ex. 2038) proposed by the parties will take
`
`effect upon filing of this motion.
`
`I.
`
`Background
`Evidence in this case relates to licensing history for the patent at issue in this
`
`IPR, and is relied upon as part of the objective evidence of non-obviousness.
`
`Ancora’s oral hearing demonstrative exhibit incorporates some of this information,
`
`which includes third party confidential information that the third parties wish to
`
`remain confidential.
`
`II. Good Causes Exists for Sealing the Exhibits Containing Confidential
`Information
`Ancora submits that Proposed Exhibit 2052 incorporates confidential business
`
`information, the disclosure of which is likely to significantly harm one or more third

`
`obligation of confidentiality.
