`Motion for Pro Hac Vice - IPR2014-00687; 00688; 00689; 01475; 01477; 01478
`
`
`
`Dear Michael,
`
`
`
`In view of our recent joining of these proceedings and the upcoming deposition on 4/30/15, ION intends to file
`tomorrow morning a Motion for Pro Hac Vice admission to to allow our colleague, David Healey, to observe
`the deposition scheduled on 4/30/15. We wish to designate David to represent ION at the deposition because:
`(1) unlike Karl (lead counsel) and me (backup counsel), he is located in Houston, Texas and the deposition is in
`Houston, Texas; and (2) he has been involved in the counterpart litigation on behalf of ION over the same
`patents at issue in these proceedings, which makes him uniquely equipped to act on ION's behalf in these
`matters.
`
`
`
`Please let us know if you intend to oppose our Motion by tomorrow at 9am EST, if possible. Apologies for the
`short time fuse on this.
`
`
`
`Additionally, if we encounter problems in filing our motion due to the peculiarities of PRPS in a situation of
`joinder, we may have to schedule a call with the Board tomorrow to ensure that we are able to properly file the
`Motion via PRPS and ensure that the Motion is considered by the Board in an expedited fashion in advance of
`the deposition on 4/30/15. With that in mind, please let us know your availability for a Board call, if needed,
`tomorrow morning.
`
`
`
`If you wish to discuss any or all of the above, please feel free to call me at (703)731-8596. Otherwise, we look
`forward to hearing back from you regarding: (1) whether you will be opposing our motion; and (2) your
`availability tomorrow morning for a Board call if needed.
`
`
`
`Thank you,
`
`-Rob
`
`ION Backup Counsel
