`
`United States Patent Number 10,104,911: Claims 2, 11, 12.
`
`Reynolds may present evidence that claims 2, 11, and 12 are invalid in view of Xia,
`
`Shizumu, and/or the knowledge of a POSITA with Claim 2 invalid in further view of Murphy or
`
`Egilmex. Reynolds may also present evidence that claims 2, 11, and 12 are invalid in view of Cho,
`
`Shizumu, and/or the knowledge of a POSITA with claim 12 invalid in further view of Xia and
`
`claim 2 invalid in further view of Murphy or Egilmex. Reynolds may also present evidence that

`claims 2, 11, and 12 are invalid in view of Han, Shizumu, and/or the knowledge of a POSITA,
`
`with claim 12 invalid in further view of Xia and claim 2 invalid in further view of Murphy or

`
`United States Patent Number 10,420,374: Claims 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 18, 20, 24, 25.
`
`Reynolds may present evidence that claims 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 18, 20, 24, and 25 are invalid
`
`in view of Reynolds’s sale of the accused Solo product prior to the effective filing date of the ’374
`
`patent as alleged by Reynolds. Reynolds may also present evidence that claims 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10
`
`are invalid in view of Liao, McLaughlin, and Liu, and claims 16, 18, 20, 24, and 25 are invalid in
`
`view of Liao, McLaughlin, and Gourlay. If the Court rules before trial that Reynolds may not
`
`present Liao as prior art, Reynolds may instead present evidence that claims 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10 are
`
`invalid in view of Pan, McLaughlin, and Liu, and claims 16, 18, 20, 24, and 25 are invalid in view
`
`of Pan, McLaughlin, and Gourlay.
