`
`Ginsberg PC-DGKeyIP Group, 1101 King Street, Ste. 610, Alexandria, VA
`
`22314. I am over the age of 18, and I make this declaration in support of the patent
`
`owner’s motion for my pro hac vice admission based on my personal knowledge.
`
`2. I am an attorney licensed and admitted to practice in the Commonwealth
`
`of Virginia and the District of Columbia, where I have been admitted since 2003
`
`and 2004, respectively. I am a member in good standing of both the Virginia Bar
`
`and the Bar of the District of Columbia.
`
`3. I practice in the field of intellectual property, including patent litigation,
`
`and have done so for over thirteen (13) years.
`
`4. I am admitted to practice before the Courts of Appeal for the D.C., Ninth
`
`and Federal Circuits, the Court of International Trade, and all state courts in
`
`Virginia. I have also been admitted to practice and have appeared pro hac vice
`
`before, among others, the United States District Courts for the District of
`
`Connecticut, the District of Hawaii, and the Northern District of California.
`
`5. I have also appeared before the United States International Trade
`
`Commission, and practice regarding trademark matters before the Trademark Trial

`and Appeal Board.
`
`
`

`
`
`
`Case IPR2016-00908
`Patent No. 5,796,183
`
`6. I clerked at the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and am a member
`
`of the Federal Circuit Bar Association.
`
`7. I have extensive experience in litigating patent infringement matters. I
`
`have been litigating patent infringement cases since my admission to the bar in
`
`2003. I have been lead counsel in such cases, including a recent case in the
`
`Northern District of California, and have appeared before the Court of Appeals for
`
`the Federal Circuit several times regarding appeals in patent infringement cases.
`
`8. I have never been suspended, disbarred, sanctioned or cited for contempt
`
`by any court or administrative body.
`
`9. I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application for
`
`admission to practice.
`
`10. I agree to read and to be subject to the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide
`
`and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in part 42 of 37 C.F.R.
`
`11. I agree to be subject to the United States Patent and Trademark Office’s
`
`Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et. seq. and submit
`
`to disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a).
`
`12. I have not applied to appear pro hac vice before the Office in any other
`
`proceeding in the last three (3) years.

`
`
`
`Case IPR2016-00908
`Patent No. 5,796,183
`
`
`13. I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding. I
`
`represent UUSI in an intellectual property dispute pending at the Court of Federal
`
`Claims, UUSI, LLC, et. al. v. The United States, et. al., Case No. 12-216 C, Ct.
`
`Fed. Cl. (“UUSI v. US”). While the asserted patents at issue in UUSI v. US do not
`
`include U.S. Pat. No. 5,796,183 (the “’183 Patent”), in my role as UUSI’s counsel
`
`and during the course of litigating on behalf of UUSI, I have become familiar with
`
`UUSI’s technological innovations and patent portfolio, including the ’183 Patent. I
`
`have analyzed and studied this patent. Further, I am familiar with touchscreen
`
`technology, including capacitive touch sensors. I litigated patent infringement
`
`issues involving touch sensors on behalf of other clients. For example, I was part a
`
`team that represented Immersion Corporation, a developer of touch feedback
`
`technology, in patent litigation involving touchscreen products. I have reviewed
`
`and am familiar with the ’183 Patent, its prosecution history, the prior art and other
`
`arguments concerning the validity of the patent made by petitioner.
`
` 14. I do not have access to information produced by petitioner or any other
`
`party (other than UUSI) in the district court action and designated as confidential.
`
`15. On information and belief, Jay P. Kesan, UUSI’s lead counsel, is a
`
`registered practitioner and his registration number is 37,488.

`
`statements made herein of my knowledge are true and that all statements made on
`
`information and belief are believed to be true.
