`
`LG Electronics Exhibit 1036
`
`
`
`
`
`I, Richard V. Wells, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am a patent attorney at Baker & McKenzie, LLP. I am counsel for
`
`VIZIO, Inc. (“VIZIO”) in this proceeding.
`
`2.
`
`The present Petition was prepared by VIZIO together with LG
`
`Electronics, Inc., LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc., and LG Electronics MobileComm
`
`U.S.A., Inc. (collectively “LGE”), Toshiba Corporation, and Toshiba America
`
`Information Systems, Inc., Toshiba America, Inc. (collectively “Toshiba”).
`
`3.
`
`Hulu, LLC (“Hulu”) did not control or fund VIZIO’s participation in
`
`the present Petition. Hulu is not indemnifying VIZIO with respect to this
`
`proceeding nor is VIZIO acting at Hulu’s request.
`
`4.
`
`VIZIO did not provide Hulu with any drafts of the Petition or its
`
`supporting declarations.
`
`5.
`
`I understand that counsel for LGE and Toshiba are making similar
`
`declarations regarding the non-involvement of Hulu.
`
`6.
`
`Accordingly, since only VIZIO, LGE and Toshiba participated in the
`
`preparation of the Petition and supporting declarations in this proceeding and
`
`neither VIZIO, LGE nor Toshiba provided any drafts to Hulu, took any direction
`
`from Hulu, or were funded by Hulu, Hulu took no part in the preparation of the
`
`Petition or the supporting declarations. Thus, Hulu did not control or fund the
`
`
`
`2
`
`Page 2 of 3
`
`
`
`Petition or the supporting declaration in any way, and Hulu is not a real party-in-
`
`interest in this proceeding.
`
`7.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the above statements are true
`
`and correct.
