`
`with respect to U.S. Patent No. 7,146,202:
`
`1.
`
`The correct constructions of the claim terms “a structurally flexible
`
`core” and “surrounding, covering, and in contact with,” “outer surface of the core,”
`
`and “first end of the core.”
`
`2. Whether challenged claims 1-3, 6, 8, 10, and 11 are anticipated under
`
`35 U.S.C. § 102(b) by Hagiwara;
`
`3. Whether challenged claim 5 is obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103 over
`
`Hagiwara and Rosenblatt;
