`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner’s Request for Oral Argument
`IPR2022-00202
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.70(a), Petitioner respectfully requests oral
`
`argument. Petitioner requests, and Patent Owner agrees to, a consolidated oral
`
`argument covering issues with respect to IPR2022-00202 and IPR2022-00291. The
`
`issues to be argued with respect to these cases include the following:
`
`1. Obviousness of U.S. Patent No. 10,142,810 on the instituted grounds:
`
`• Ground I — Claims 1–20 are obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103
`in view of Diacakis;
`• Ground II — Claims 1–9, 11–17, 19, and 20 are obvious
`under 35 U.S.C. § 103 in view of Tanigawa in combination
`with Hullfish.
`2. Obviousness of U.S. Patent No. 10,708,727 on the instituted grounds:
`
`• Ground I — Claims 1–6, 15, and 17 are obvious under 35
`U.S.C. § 103 in view of Diacakis;
`• Ground II — Claims 7–9 are obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103
`in view of Diacakis in combination with Loveland;
`• Ground III — Claim 16 is obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103 in
`view of Diacakis in combination with Takahashi;
`• Ground IV — Claims 1–3, 6, 15, and 17 are obvious under 35
`U.S.C. § 103 in view of Tanigawa in combination with
`Hullfish;
`• Ground V — Claims 7–9 are obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103
`in view of Tanigawa in combination with Hullfish and
`Loveland;
`• Ground VI — Claim 16 is obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103 in
`view of Tanigawa in combination with Hullfish and
`Takahashi.
`3. Procedural and evidentiary issues raised, e.g., in Objections to Evidence.

`IPR2022-00202
`
`4. Any additional issues on which the Board seeks information or
`
`clarification.
`
`Petitioner respectfully asks the Board for clarity regarding the location of oral
`
`argument. With respect to IPR2022-00202, oral argument is presently scheduled for
`
`February 17, 2023 in Alexandria, Virginia. See IPR2022-00202, Paper 10 at 6, 11.
`
`With respect to IPR2022-00291, oral argument is presently scheduled for the same
`
`day (February 17, 2023) before the same panel in Denver, Colorado. See IPR2022-
`
`00291, Paper 11 at 6, 11.
`
`Petitioner requests, and Patent Owner agrees, that each party be allowed a
`
`total of sixty (60) minutes for its argument. Petitioner may reserve a portion of its
`
`time for rebuttal.
`
`Petitioner further requests the use of audio-visual equipment to assist its
`
`arguments and to display its demonstrative exhibits. The Board has indicated that
`
`oral argument will be conducted in person. Paper 10. Accordingly, Petitioner
`
`requests a computer connectable projector, an ELMO, and a screen. If instead the
`
`Board decides oral argument will be conducted by remote videoconferencing,
`
`Petitioner requests permission to use video-conferencing software to allow the
`
`presentation of demonstratives.
