`
`DECLARATION OF THOMAS J. FREDRICKS
`
`I, Thomas J. Fredricks, do hereby declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am a competent adult over 18 years of age.
`
`I make the following statements
`
`based upon my personal knowledge.
`
`
`
`Case 1:16-cv-02690-AT Document 126-9 Filed 08/09/16 Page 3 of 3
`Case 1:16—cv-02690-AT Document 126-9 Filed 08/09/16 Page 3 of 3
`
`2.
`
`I am an employee of Regulators Technologies, Inc, an affiliate of Emerson
`
`Electric Co. In 2011, I was a Vice President of Engineering for the White Rogers Division of
`
`Emerson Electric Co.
`
`3.
`
`On October 25, 2011, I executed a patent license agreement between Emerson
`
`Electric and SIPCO, LLC and IPCO LLC under what SIPCO/IPCO characterized their “Essential
`
`Wireless Mesh” or “EWM.” That agreement, however, was negotiated by others within
`
`Emerson and my involvement in creating that agreement was tangential.
`
`4.
`
`I currently live and work in McKinney, Texas. I do not know if I have knowledge
`
`relevant to any issue in this action or if my testimony will be necessary at trial in this matter, but
`
`if necessary, I agree to make myself available for trial in Atlanta.
`
`5.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
`
`Dated: August 8, 2016
