`Petitioner,

`Patent Owner.

`
`Case IPR2015-003161
`Patent 7,477,624
`_______________
`
`PATENT OWNER’S MOTION FOR PRO HAC VICE ADMISSION
`UNDER 37 CFR §42.10(c)
`
`
`1 IPR2015-01581 has been joined with IPR2015-00316
`
`
`
`
`
`Patent Owner Bandspeed, Inc. respectfully requests that the Board recognize
`
`Adam G. Price, Esq., as counsel pro hac vice pursuant to 37 CFR §42.10(c).
`
`I.
`
`
`
`STATEMENT OF FACTS
`
`The following statement of facts show that there is good cause for the Board
`
`to recognize Mr. Price pro hac vice.
`
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Board may recognize counsel
`
`pro hac vice during a proceeding upon a showing of good cause, subject to the
`
`condition that lead counsel be a registered practitioner and to any other conditions
`
`as the Board may impose. Section 42.10(c) indicates that, “where lead counsel is a
`
`registered practitioner, a motion to appear pro hac vice may be granted upon a
`
`showing that counsel is an experienced litigating attorney and has an established
`
`familiarity with the subject matter at issue in the proceeding.” Patent Owner’s lead
`
`counsel is a registered practitioner.
`
`Furthermore, Mr. Price is a highly experienced patent litigation attorney,
`
`who has been involved in numerous patent litigations before the federal district
`
`courts. He has experience litigating complex electrical and software related
`
`patents, such as the patent at issue in the instant proceeding.
`
`Mr. Price has substantial experience with U.S. Patent No. 7,477,624 (“the
`
`’624 patent”). Mr. Price represents Bandspeed in Bandspeed v. Qualcomm, Inc., et
`
`al., 1:14-cv-00436 (W.D. Tex.) in which the ‘624 Patent has been asserted. As a
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`result, Mr. Price has established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding, including substantive knowledge of the ’624 patent, its prosecution
`
`history, and related matters.
`
`Counsel for Petitioner does not oppose Mr. Price appearing pro hac vice
`
`during this proceeding.
`
`II. AFFIDAVIT OR DECLARATION OF INDIVIDUAL SEEKING TO
`APPEAR
`
`Patent Owner’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission is accompanied by an
`
`
`
`Affidavit of Adam G. Price, with accompanying biography, attached hereto as
