`DECLARATION OF KLAUS BACHMANN
`
`I, Klaus Bachmann, declare:
`1.
`Inc. (“Bosch”). I have held this position for the past four years. I have personal knowledge of the
`
`I am currently the Vice President of Finance of Robert Bosch Healthcare Systems,
`
`facts set forth in this Declaration and, if called as a witness, could and would testify competently
`
`to such facts under oath. I am providing this declaration in support of Bosch’s Opposition to
`
`Cardiocom, LLC’s (“Cardiocom”) Motion to Stay Lawsuit Pending Reexamination of Patents-in-
`
`Suit.
`
`2. Cardiocom is a direct competitor of Robert Bosch Healthcare Systems, Inc.
`(“Bosch”) in the telehealth market space. Bosch and Cardiocom directly and regularly compete
`
`with each other for important contracts with healthcare providers.
`3. For example, in 2011, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs selected Bosch,
`Cardiocom, and four other telehealth companies to compete for $225 million worth of home
`
`health monitoring services contracts, to be completed within five years. Some of these contracts
`
`
`
`
`
`require features covered by the patents-in-suit. These contracts are crucial to the development of These contracts are crurr cial to the development ot f
`
`
`
`a successful telehealth business as they are expected to last several years and will involve thea successfuff l telehealth business as they are expected to last several years and will involve the
`
`
`
`
`
`sales of high volumes of equipment and devices. Additionally, these contracts initiate many new sales of hf igh volumes of equipment and devices.
`
`relationships with patients because most patients sign up for the telehealth program that is
`
`suggested or provided by his or her healthcare provider.
`4. These contracts are also important because, once the relationship between a
`healthcare provider and a telehealth company is formed, the telehealth company has the
`
`opportunity to discuss and expand the level of telehealth services with a given company or to add
`
`on additional features or services at a later time.
`5. There are over 145 patents related to the patents-in-suit. Several other competitive
`healthcare companies have licensed the patents-in-suit from Bosch. Often times these licenses
`
`result following litigation and the settlement of that litigation. For example, Alere Medical and
`
`Patient Care Technologies settled with Health Hero Network, Inc. (a predecessor-in-interest to
`
`Bosch) and obtained licenses from Bosch in 2010. More recently, Waldo Networks settled with
