`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1), Petitioner submits the following
`
`objections to exhibits served by Patent Owner in Case No. IPR2023-00074.
`
`Petitioner’s objections apply equally to Patent Owner’s reliance on the exhibit in
`
`any subsequently-filed documents. These objections are timely, having been
`
`served within five business days of service of evidence. 37 C.F.R. § 42.64(b)(1).
`
`Exhibit 2048
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2048 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the
`
`Federal Rules of Evidence (“FRE”) because it is not cited in the Patent Owner
`
`Response (“POR”) and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2049
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2049 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out

`Exhibit 2051
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2051 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
`
`1
`
`
`
`in the POR. Petitioner further objects to Exhibit 2051 under FRE 602 and/or 901
`
`for lack of foundation.
`
`Exhibit 2056
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2056 under FRE 602 and/or 901 for lack of
`
`foundation. Petitioner further objects to Exhibit 2056 to the extent it relies on any
`
`other exhibit that is objected to.
`
`Exhibit 2057
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2057 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE

`in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2059
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2059 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE

`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
`
`in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2060
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2060 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE

`
`2
`
`
`
`Exhibit 2061
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2061 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
`
`in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2062
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2062 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
`
`in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2063
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2063 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
`
`in the POR.
`
`Exhibit 2066
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2066 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE

`
`3
`
`
`
`Exhibit 2069
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2069 under FRE 106 because it is an incomplete
`
`writing. Petitioner further objects to Exhibit 2069 under FRE 802 because it
`
`contains out of court statements that Patent Owner relies on for their truth, thus
`
`constituting impermissible hearsay. Petitioner also objects to Exhibit 2069 under
`
`FRE 602 and/or 901 for lack of foundation.
`
`Exhibit 2083
`
`
`
`Petitioner objects to Exhibit 2083 under Rules 401, 402, and 403 of the FRE
`
`because it is not cited in the POR and is thus not relevant to the positions laid out
