`
`Patent Owner’s Notice of Appeal
`
`
`
`90.3, notice is hereby given that Patent Owner MemoryWeb, LLC (“MemoryWeb”)
`
`appeals to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from the Final
`
`Written Decision, dated November 17, 2023 (Paper No. 80) (“Final Decision”)

`
`no later than 63 days after the Final Decision.
`
`
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a)(3)(ii), MemoryWeb states that the
`
`issues on appeal may include, but are not limited to:
`
` The Board’s determination that claims 1-19 of U.S. Patent No. 10,621,228
`
`were shown by a preponderance of the evidence to be unpatentable under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 103(a) in view of the Aperture 3 User Manual (Ex. 1005) (“A3UM”)
`
`and Belitz (Ex. 1006), including any findings or determinations supporting or
`
`related to that determination;
`
` The Board’s determination that A3UM (Ex. 1005) was shown by a
`
`preponderance of the evidence to be a printed publication and qualifies as
`
`prior art to U.S. Patent No. 10,621,228;
`
` The Board’s findings relating to the proper construction of the term
`
`“responsive to”;

`
`
`
`inter partes review petition filed by Unified Patents, LLC challenging claims
`
`1-7 of the ‘228 patent (IPR2021-01413);
`
` The Board’s findings that Patent Owner “forfeited and/or waived” the right to
`
`assert estoppel under 35 U.S.C. § 315(e)(1) and denial of Patent Owner’s
`
`Motion to Terminate (Paper 57);
`
` The Board’s denial of Patent Owner’s Motion to Exclude (Paper No. 34);
`
` All other issues decided adversely to MemoryWeb in any orders, decisions,
