`
`Case No. IPR2014-00556
`Declaration of Jonathan G. Graves to Appear Pro Hac Vice
`
`
`
`I, Jonathan G. Graves, do hereby declare:
`
`
`
`1. I am a partner in the law firm Cooley LLP. Patent Owner Neptune Technologies &
`
`Bioressources Inc. (“Neptune”) intends to designate J. Dean Farmer, Ph.D, another partner
`
`with Cooley LLP, as lead counsel in this inter partes review proceeding.1 Dr. Farmer is
`
`registered to practice before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and holds
`
`Registration No. 57,917. I will work closely with Dr. Farmer in this proceeding.
`
`
`
`2. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish from Dartmouth College. I hold a
`
`Juris Doctor degree from the University of Virginia School of Law.
`
`
`
`3. I have over 23 years of experience as a litigating attorney representing clients in
`
`matters in various United States District Courts and Courts of Appeals, and before the
`
`International Trade Commission. My experience includes several litigation matters in the
`
`chemical arts. I am, therefore, an experienced litigating attorney. Patent Owner desires,
`
`and has a need, to be represented in certain aspects of these proceedings by an
`
`experienced litigating attorney.
`
`
`
`4. I am familiar with U.S. Patent No. 8,278,351, and with the legal subject matter,
`
`technical subject matter, and prior art discussed in Petitioner’s Request for Inter Partes
`
`
`1 Neptune initially designated Dr. Farmer as back-up counsel. See Paper 6. However, as
`detailed in IPR2014-00003 Paper 70 (filed July 3, 2014), Neptune’s presently designated
`lead counsel is no longer employed by Cooley LLP, the law firm representing Neptune in
`this proceeding. Accordingly, Neptune intends to file a new Power of Attorney designating
`Dr. Farmer as lead counsel.
