`EXHIBIT 2308
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I, Kevin S. Prussia, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I obtained a B.A. from New York University in 2001, and a J.D. from
`
`the Boston University School of Law in 2006.
`
`2.
`
`I am currently a partner in the law firm of Wilmer Cutler Hale and
`
`Dorr LLP, a position which I have held since January 1, 2015. In my 10 years of
`
`law practice, I have focused primarily on representing clients in patent litigations
`
`involving the chemical and pharmaceutical arts in United States district courts and
`
`the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Through this work, I have gained
`
`extensive experience as a litigating attorney, particularly in patent cases.
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bars of the Commonwealth of
`
`Massachusetts and the State of New York. I am admitted to practice before
`
`theU.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. I am also admitted to
`
`practice before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, and the U.S. Court
`
`of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. I am also admitted to practice before the
`
`Supreme Judicial Court for Suffolk County, Massachusetts, and the State of New
`
`York Supreme Court Appellate Division, Third Judicial Dept.
`
`4.
`
`Concurrently with this application, I am applying to appear pro hac
`
`vice in IPR2015-01835. In the past three years, I have appeared pro hac vice in
`
`seven other matters. Also in the past three years, I have applied to appear pro hac

`
`IPR2015-01375.
`
`5.
`
`I have substantial familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding. I have developed a strong familiarity with U.S. Patent No. 7,932,268,
`
`its prosecution history, its general subject matter, and the prior art references relied
`
`upon by Petitioner in support of its invalidity grounds in this proceeding. Over the
`
`last year, I have represented Aegerion, exclusive licensee of U.S. Patent No.
`
`7,932,268, in connection with various intellectual property matters relating to
`
`Aegerion’s brand name product, JUXTAPID®. Furthermore, I became actively
`
`involved in IPR2015-01836 shortly after the filing of the Preliminary Patent Owner
`
`Response, and I have thoroughly reviewed the Petition and accompanying Exhibits
`
`submitted in this proceeding. In that capacity, I have attended depositions of
`
`Patent Owner’s experts, and I have also assisted with the selection of experts, as
`
`well as with the preparation of expert reports, the Patent Owner Response, the
`
`Motion to Amend, the Patent Owner Response in Support of the Motion to Amend,
`
`and other related documents.
`
`6.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.

`
`8.
`
`I have never been subject to any sanction or contempt citation
`
`imposed by any court or administrative body.
`

`
`Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in part 42 of 37 C.F.R.

`forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et. seq. and disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. §
`
`11.19(a).
