`Submitted Electronically via the PTAB E2E System
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §§ 141, 142, and 319, and in accordance with 37 C.F.R.
`
`§§ 90.2-90.3, and by permission of the Federal Circuit, Patent Owner Corephotonics,
`
`Ltd. (“Corephotonics”) hereby amends its prior Notice of Appeal (Paper No. 38)
`
`appealing to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from the
`
`Final Written Decision of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“Board”) entered on
`
`December 3, 2019, in IPR2018-01140 (Paper No. 37) (“Final Written Decision”),
`
`and from all underlying findings, determinations, rulings, opinions, orders, and de-
`
`cisions regarding the inter partes review of U.S. Patent No. 9,402,032 (the “’032
`
`patent”), to appeal the same and further include the Order denying Corephotonics’
`
`request for Director review entered September 28, 2021 (Paper No. 41), and all un-
`
`derlying findings, determinations, rulings, opinions, orders, and decisions regarding
`
`that Order.
`
`Corephotonics’ request for Director review was made pursuant to a remand
`
`by the Federal Circuit in Corephotonics, Ltd. v. Apple Inc., Case No. 2020-1424.
`
`Corephotonics submits this Amended Notice of Appeal out of an abundance of cau-
`
`tion, within the seven-day deadline for any Amended Notice of Appeal set forth in
`
`the order entered by the Federal Circuit in that pending appeal on October 6, 2021.
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 90.2(a)(3)(ii), Corephotonics states that the
`
`issues on appeal may include, but are not limited to: the Board’s determination that
`
`claims 1 and 13–15 of the ’032 patent have been shown to be unpatentable; whether
`
`
`
`1
`
`
`
`the statute and regulations under which the Board made its determination violate the
`
`Appointments Clause or other provisions of the United States Constitution; the
`
`Board’s consideration of the expert testimony, prior art, and other evidence in the
`
`record; and the Board’s factual findings, conclusions of law, or other determinations
`
`supporting or related to those issues, as well as all other issues decided adversely to
`
`Corephotonics in any orders, decisions, rulings, and opinions.
`
`This Amended Notice of Appeal is being filed with the Clerk’s Office for the
`
`United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, along with payment of the
`
`required docketing fees. In addition, a copy of this Amended Notice of Appeal is
`
`being filed simultaneously with the Patent Trial and Appeal Board.
`
`
`Respectfully submitted,

`Dated: October 13, 2021
