`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1) and the Federal Rules of Evidence
`
`(“FRE”), Patent Owner Polaris Innovations Ltd. hereby files objections to the

`
`Technology Company, Inc. on August 16, 2016 with its Petition for Inter Partes

`
`the basis of the instituted reviews.

`Exhibit 1006 (“Declaration of Vivek Subramanian”).
`
`Exhibit 1006 is inadmissible to the extent it provides opinions that are

`
`by other consideration under FRE 403, including unfair prejudice, confusion of the
`
`issue and waste of time. Patent Owner further objects to this Exhibit in its entirety,
`
`and to each paragraph therein, as hearsay under FRE 802.

`provide opinions relating to claims for which review was not
`
`instituted.
`

`they express opinions relating to the combination of Simpson and

`provide opinions relating to grounds for which review was not
