`
`
`
`I, Alfred R. Fabricant, declare as follows:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`IPR2016-00418
`PATENT NO. 8,155,342
`
`1.
`
`I have been practicing in the field of patent litigation for over 20 years. I
`
`have been lead counsel in over 30 patent cases over my career.
`
`2.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bar of the State of New York and the
`
`Bar of the State of Arizona. I am admitted to practice in the United States District
`
`Courts for the Southern District of New York, the Eastern District of New York,
`
`the District of Arizona, and the Eastern District of Texas; the United States Courts
`
`of Appeal for the Federal Circuit, the Second Circuit, and the Fourth Circuit; and
`
`the United States Supreme Court.
`
`3.
`
`I have never been suspended, disbarred, sanctioned, or cited for any
`
`contempt by any court or administrative body.
`
`4.
`
`I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application for
`
`admission to practice.
`
`5.
`
`I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide and
`
`the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as set forth in Part 42 of the Code of
`
`Federal Regulations.
`
`6.
`
`I agree to be subject to the United States Patent and Trademark Office Code
`
`of Professional Responsibility set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101, et seq., and
`
`disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a) and to be subject to the

`Reg. 20180 (Apr. 3, 2013) (effective May 3, 2013).
`
`7.
`
`In the past three (3) years, I have not been admitted pro hac vice in any
`
`proceedings before the United States Patent and Trademark Office. I submitted a
`
`declaration in connection with a motion for pro hac vice admission in IPR2016-
`
`00118. That motion is still pending. I am also submitting declarations in
`
`connection with motions for pro hac vice admission in the following inter partes
`
`review proceedings: IPR2016-00419, -00421, and -00422. I plan to submit those
`
`declarations and motions simultaneously with the instant declaration.
`
`8.
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding. I am lead
`
`counsel for the patent owner, Blitzsafe Texas, LLC, in five related patent
`
`infringement matters involving the patent at issue in this proceeding, U.S. Patent
`
`No. 8,155,342, and a related patent. Those matters are Blitzsafe Texas, LLC v.
`
`Hyundai Motor Company, et al., No. 15-cv-01275-JRG (E.D. Tex.); Blitzsafe
`
`Texas, LLC v. Honda Motor Co., Ltd., et al., No. 15-cv-01274-JRG (E.D. Tex.);

`
`cv-01276-JRG (E.D. Tex.); and Blitzsafe Texas, LLC v. Toyota Motor Corporation
`
`et al., No. 15-cv-01277-JRG (E.D. Tex.) (“the Texas Litigations”).

`
`further that these statements are made with the knowledge that willful false
`
`statements and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both,
`
`under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code and that such willful false
