`

`I. INTRODUCTION
`
`A. Engagement
`
`1.
`
`My name is Juelene Beck. I have been retained by counsel for Southern
`
`Visions, LLP (“Southern Visions”) as an expert witness in the above-captioned
`
`proceeding. I have been asked to supplement my analyses and opinions about the
`
`technology described in U.S. Patent No. 10,071,852 (the “’852 Patent”) and U.S.
`
`Patent Application No. 13/867,526 (the “’526 App”), which I previously provided
`
`in the Declaration of Juelene Beck in Support of Patent Owner’s Preliminary
`
`Response, signed on July 17, 2019 and bearing Patent Owner’s Exhibit No. 2001
`
`(the “First Juelene Beck Declaration”), as well as the Declaration of Juelene Beck in
`
`Support of Patent Owner’s Motion to Amend, signed on January 7, 2020 and bearing
`
`Patent Owner’s Exhibit No. 2027 (the “Second Juelene Beck Declaration”).
`
`B. Background, Qualifications, and Compensation
`
`2.
`
`My education, background, and compensation are all stated in the First
`
`Juelene Beck Declaration and the Second Juelene Beck Declaration and have not
`
`changed.
`
`C. Materials and Information Considered
`
`3.
`
`In addition to my education and experience in the food service and consumer
`
`packaged goods industries, I relied on personal knowledge as gained from my review
`
`of the documents identified in this declaration.

`
`

`

`4.
`
`My opinions are based on my experience and information I have reviewed to
`
`date, including those documents identified in the First Juelene Beck Declaration and
`
`the Second Juelene Beck Declaration. I reserve the right to supplement, change, or
`
`amend those opinions should I become aware of additional information.
`
`5.
`
`I also understand that I may be asked to provide additional opinions, which
`
`may require me to review additional information. The fact that any specific opinion
`
`does not appear in this report does not suggest that I am not qualified to provide such
`
`an opinion, nor should it suggest that I agree with any specific statement in Red
`
`Diamond’s Petition for Post Grant Review (the “Petition”), Exhibit 1004 to the
`
`Petition (the “Coffield Report”), by Mr. Coffield, or Red Diamond’s Opposition to
`
`Southern Visions Motion to Amend.
`
`6.
`
`My opinions are presented for the purpose being used in the above-captioned
`
`proceedings, and I understand that the Patent Trial and Appeal Board will be asked
`
`to rely on my opinions in evaluating issues in the above-captioned dispute.
`
`However, the facts of any specific factual matter may differ. Thus, my opinions
`
`stated herein should not be relied upon by parties outside the present proceedings or
`
`for matters unrelated to the proceedings.
`
`7.
`
`My opinions stated in the First Juelene Beck Declaration and the Second
`
`Juelene Beck Declaration have not changed and are merely supplemented herein.

`II. Analysis
`
`A. The Person of Ordinary Skill in the Art
`
`8.
`
`In the Second Juelene Beck Declaration, I discussed the Person of Ordinary
`
`Skill in the Art (POSA).
`
`9.
`
`In my opinion, as of April 22, 2013, a POSA would know that, when freshly
`
`brewing iced tea using commercial restaurant iced tea brewing machines, 3-gallon
`
`batches of iced tea are most commonly brewed using 4 ounces of loose tea and 1.5-
`
`gallon batches of iced tea are most commonly brewed using 2 ounces of loose tea.
`
`This is because 4 ounces and 2 ounces have been, for many years, the most common
`
`amounts of loose tea used in restaurants for 3-gallon and 1.5-gallon batches of iced
`
`tea, respectively. I am aware that these amounts of loose tea are the most commonly
`
`used amounts in restaurants due to my experience with restaurant iced tea brewing
`
`systems, obtained through my employment with Burger King Corporation, the North
`
`American Association of Subway Franchisees, Sara Lee Coffee & Tea, and Dunkin
`
`Donuts Incorporated, as well as my consulting with many other chain restaurants
`
`that sell freshly brewed iced tea. This experience included, without limitation, (a)
`
`supervision and creation of product specifications for iced tea, and (b) management
`
`of beverage product categories in chain restaurants.
