`
`IPR2016-00282 (8,017,150 B2)
`
`I, Daniel Doran, hereby declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am the Docketing Manager for Hoffmann & Baron, LLP, with offices at
`
`6900 Jericho Turnpike, Syosset NY 11791 and 6 Campus Drive,
`
`Parsippany, NJ 07054 (“Hoffmann” or the “Firm”).
`
`2.
`
`I oversee the general operations of communications with the Firm, including
`
`all incoming mail and documents received via the mail room in Syosset and
`
`the docketing and distribution thereof. I am also in charge of the process of
`
`opening new matters in the Firm and ensuring that the identification of these
`
`new matters are correctly entered into the Firm’s docketing and billing
`
`systems.
`
`3.
`
`On December 7, 2015, the Firm’s mail room in Syosset received, among
`
`other things, three banker’s boxes from FedEx. The boxes had FedEx
`
`shipping labels with the following tracking numbers: 7751 1902 8582; 7751
`
`1902 8983; and 7751 1902 9203. All three boxes were from GOODWIN
`
`PROCTOR, 620 8TH AVENUE, NEW YORK, N.Y. 10018 and were
`
`addressed to:
`
`HOFFMANN & BARON LLP
`RB PHARMACEUTICALS LTD: MONOSOL RX
`6900 JERICHO TURNPIKE
`SYOSSET NY 11791.

`
`-2-
`
`IPR2016-00282 (8,017,150 B2)
`
`4.
`
`The three boxes from Goodwin Proctor were opened in my presence, in my
`
`office. I examined the contents of the three boxes in order to properly
`
`docket the documents in the boxes. In examining the contents, I located
`
`documents suitable for docketing entitled “Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`of US Patent 8,475,832" and “Petition for Inter Partes Review of US Patent
`
`8,603,514". I went to the USPTO PTAB Trials portal for IPRs and
`
`searched by the patent number on each of the petitions and learned that they
`
`had received case numbers IPR2016-00280 and IPR2016-00281,
`
`respectively. Separate client matters were opened for each and they also
`
`received separate sequential internal billing numbers of 1199-0784 and
`
`1199-0785, respectively. That is because internal billing numbers are
`
`automatically assigned sequentially by the Firm’s intake software for each
`
`client, in this case MonoSol Rx LLC (1199).
`
`5.
`
`The three boxes I examined did not contain a petition for any other patent.
`
`In particular, there was no Petition for Inter Partes Review of US Patent
`
`8,017,150 in the three FedEx boxes received on December 7, 2015 from
`
`Goodwin Proctor.
`
`6.
`
` Had the Petition for Inter Partes Review of US Patent 8,017,150 been in the
`
`three boxes it would have received the next consecutive internal billing

`IPR2016-00281 (8,603,514 B2)
`
`-3-
`
`IPR2016-00282 (8,017,150 B2)
`
`number for the client, i.e., internal billing number 1199-0786. Instead the
`
`internal billing number 1199-0786 for MonoSol was generated on
`
`December 8, 2015 for an unrelated matter. Ultimately, Inter Partes Review
`
`of US Patent 8,017,150 received the next internal billing number of 1199-
`
`0787 on December 14, 2015.
`
`7.
`
`On Monday, December 7, 2015, after ascertaining the parties involved in
`
`the petitions, I notified Michael Chakansky, among others, of the Firm’s
`
`Parsippany, NJ office of the receipt of the IPR petitions for the 8,475,832
`
`and 8,603,514 patents. Later that day, Mr. Chakansky called me and
`
`instructed me to reseal and send him the three boxes, complete with all their
`
`contents and shipping labels as attached, by overnight FedEx to his office in
`
`Parsippany, which I did that day.
`
`8.
`
`On Friday, December 18, 2015, among other items received, the Hoffmann
`
`& Baron mail room in Syosset received a banker’s box from FedEx. The
`
`box was from GOODWIN PROCTOR LLP, 901 NEW YORK AVE NW FL
`
`9, WASHINGTON DC, 20001 and was addressed to:
`
`MONOSOL RX, LLC
`RB PHARMACEUTICALS LTD
`6900 JERICHO TURNPIKE
`SYOSSET NY 11791.

`
`IPR20 1 6—00282 (8,0l 7,150 B2)
`
`9.
`
`On that day, Friday, December 18, 2015, I examined the contents of the box
`
`and located three documents suitable for docketing which pertained to
`
`PTAB notices of filing dates accorded in IPR2016—00280, IPR2016-00281
`
`and IPR2016-00282.
`
`10. On that day, Friday, December 18, 2015, I notified Michael Chakansky of
`
`the receipt of the box and the three notices referenced in paragraph 9 and
`
`Mr. Chakansky instructed me to reseal and send him the box complete with
`
`all its contents and its shipping label as attached, by overnight FedEx to his
`
`office in Parsippany, which I did.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
