`
`
`Patent Owner objects to Exhibits 1070-1083, 1085-1087, 1099, and 1100 as
`
`1100
`
`lacking authentication under Federal Rules of Evidence (“FRE”) 901 because
`
`sufficient evidence has not been provided to authenticate these exhibits or to
`
`otherwise establish that they are what Petitioner claims them to be.
`
`Patent Owner also objects to Exhibits 1070-1083, 1085-1087, 1099, and
`
`1100 under FRE 801, 802, and 805 as containing hearsay and/or hearsay within
`
`hearsay. To the extent Petitioner relies on the content of these exhibits for the truth
`
`of the matter asserted, Patent Owner objects to such content as inadmissible
`
`hearsay and/or hearsay within hearsay that does not fall under any exceptions.
`
`Patent Owner also objects to Exhibits 1059, 1070-1083, 1085-1087, 1099,
`
`and 1100 as irrelevant or, in the alternative, prejudicial, confusing, and a waste of
`
`time under FRE 401, 402, and 403. Petitioner does not cite Exhibits 1070-1083,
`
`1085-1087, 1099, and 1100 in its Petition or Reply. Thus, the exhibits have
`
`minuscule probative value that is substantially outweighed by unfair prejudice,
`
`confusion, waste of time, and needless presentation of cumulative evidence. FRE
`
`401-403.
`
`Patent Owner objects to Exhibit 1047, paragraphs 33, 36-39, 41-42, 43, 45,

`
`1, and Exhibit 1049, paragraphs 101-102 and footnotes 3-4 as containing hearsay
`
`and/or hearsay within hearsay under FRE 801, 802, and 805, and irrelevant or, in
`
`the alternative, prejudicial, confusing, and a waste of time under FRE 401, 402,
`
`and 403. The opinions stated in these paragraphs and footnotes cite Exhibits 1059,
`
`1070-1083, 1085-1087, 1099, and 1100, which are objectionable for the reasons
`
`explained above. Thus, the above-identified paragraphs and footnotes in Exhibits
`
`1047-1049 relying on these exhibits are objectionable for the same reasons.
