`
`I.
`
`Statement Of Precise Relief Requested

`
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c) and Paper No. 3 authorizing the parties to

`
`
`experienced litigating attorney and has an established familiarity with the subject
`

`Lead counsel, Herbert D. Hart III, is a registered practitioner. Backup
`
`counsel, Sharon A. Hwang is also a registered practitioner.

`
`Chiplunkar is a member of the Illinois bar in good standing, is admitted to practice
`
`in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and has also been
`
`admitted to practice pro hac vice in other Federal District courts. Mr. Chiplunkar
`
`has experience in fact and expert document and deposition discovery and motion
`
`practice before U.S. District Courts in connection with patent infringement
`
`litigation matters.
`
`3.
`
`Prior to entering the field of law, Mr. Chiplunkar was employed with
`
`Motorola Inc. for over ten years as an electrical engineer. At Motorola, Mr.
`
`Chiplunkar contributed to the design of telecommunications equipment. Through

`Patent Owner Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice of Rajendra Chiplunkar
`
`
`4. Mr. Chiplunkar has spent substantial time reviewing and analyzing the
`
`patent at issue in this proceeding, its file history, the Petition, the references cited,
`
`and the Declarations of Dr. Haas, the Petitioner’s Expert. Mr. Chiplunkar is
`
`familiar with the invalidity arguments advanced by the Petitioner. Additionally,
`
`Mr. Chiplunkar substantively contributed to the Patent Owner Response filed in

`this proceeding. Further, Mr. Chiplunkar has attended the cross-examination of

`
`proceeding.
