          Jurgenson v. Dunfield                                                       
               Dunfield Preliminary Motions 2 and 4                                   
               Dunfield has filed a preliminary motion 2, requesting                  
          the addition of 3 new counts and to designate its claims 42-                
          46 and certain ones of Jurgenson’s claims as corresponding to               
          the proposed counts.                                                        
               As stated above, in connection with Dunfield preliminary               
          motion 3, Dunfield claims 42-46 are barred under 35 U.S.C.                  
          § 135(b).  Thus, there is no occasion to adopt Dunfield’s                   
          proposed counts 3-5.  Accordingly, Dunfield preliminary                     
          motion 2 is dismissed as moot.                                              
               In Dunfield preliminary motion 4, Dunfield moves to be                 
          accorded the benefit of its earlier application 08/438,091                  
          for its proposed counts 3-5.  The preliminary motion is                     
          contingent upon the granting of Dunfield preliminary motion                 
          2.  Because we have dismissed Dunfield preliminary motion 2,                
          the contingency did not materialize and so Dunfield’s                       
          preliminary motion 4 is dismissed.                                          
               Dunfield’s remaining preliminary motions                               
               In Dunfield’s remaining preliminary motions, Dunfield                  
          essentially seeks to designate several Jurgenson claims as                  
          corresponding to the count, while seeking to have several of                
          those claims held to be unpatentable.                                       

                                       - 26 -
