                                      Claims of the parties                                            
                        9.    The claims of the parties are:                                           
                                    Chang:      1-7                                                    
                                    Winer:      1 and 6-25                                             

                        10. The claims of the parties which correspond to the                          
            count, and therefore are involved in the interference (35 U.S.C.                           
            § 135(a)), are:                                                                            

                                    Chang:      1-7                                                    
                                    Winer:      1 and 6-25                                             

                        11. The claims of the parties which do not correspond                          
            to the count are:                                                                          
                                    Chang:      None                                                   
                                    Winer:      None                                                   

                                         Briefs and record                                             
                        12. Chang has submitted (1) record and (2) a principal                         
            brief on the issue of priority.                                                            
                        13. Winer did not submit a record or a brief opposing                          
            Chang's principal brief.                                                                   
                        14. The Chang record includes an AFFIDAVIT OF WEN-LUNG                         
            CHANG (hereinafter "Affidavit"), signed (1) on 13 October 2000 by                          
            Wen-Lung Chang and (2) on 23 October 2000 by his patent attorney,                          
            David E. Newhouse, Esq. (hereinafter "Newhouse").                                          
                        15. The fact that Winer did not file a brief opposing                          
            Chang's principal brief is not an admission per se that Chang is                           
            entitled to prevail on priority.  Rather, we consider Chang's                              

                                                - 3 -
