`
`
`
`1, Michael W. Shore, declare as follows:
`
`1. I am more than twenty-one years of age, competent to present this affidavit, and
`
`have personal knowledge of the facts set forth herein.
`
`2. This affidavit is given in support of Patent Owner’s Motion for Pro Hac Vice
`
`Admission of Michael W. Shore.
`
`3. I am a partner at the law firm of Shore Chan DePumpo LLP.
`
`4. I have been practicing law since 1990 and have extensive experience litigating
`
`patent infringement cases in many different courts across the United States.
`
`5. I have been litigating patent cases for nineteen years.
`
`6. My experience in patent litigation matters includes being lead counsel in trial,
`
`arguing multiple Markman hearings, and many other patent-related hearings
`
`concerning various issues, such as validity and infiingement.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bar of Texas (admitted 1990), as well as
`
`the following Federal Courts: US. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas,
`
`US. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, US. District Court for the
`
`Southern District of Texas, US. District Court for the Western District of Texas,
`
`US District Court for New Mexico, Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, United States
`
`Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, US. District Court for the Eastern
`
`District of Arkansas, US District Court for the Western District of Arkansas,
`
`US District Court for the Central District of California, US. District Court for
`
`
`
`the Southern District of California, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
`
`California, U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, U.S. District Court for
`
`the Northern District of Florida, U.S. District Court for the District of
`
`Massachusetts, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and
`
`U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York.
`
`7. I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any court or
`
`administrative body.
`
`8. No court or administrative body has ever denied my application for admission
`
`to practice before it.
`
`9. No court or administrative body has imposed sanctions or contempt citations
`
`related to my conduct in my 26-year legal career other than one instance Where I was
`
`instructed not to send opposing counsel emails for a limited period during a hotly
`
`contested trial due to the Court’s belief that prior emails were not professional in
`
`tone. I do not believe this instruction qualifies as a “sanction” but include this
`
`disclosure nonetheless. If this incident is of concern to the Board, I am willing to
`
`provide a copy of the emails and the transcript of the Court’s instruction during trial.
`
`At the end of the trial, my client was the party awarded fees due to the misconduct of
`
`the opposing counsel.
`
`10. I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice Guide and
`
`the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials set forth in in 37 CPR. § 42.
`
`
`
`11. I understand that I will be subject to the USPTO Code of Professional
`
`Responsibility set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 10.20 et seq. and disciplinary jurisdiction
`
`under 37 C.F.R. § 11.l9(a).
`
`12. I have not applied to appear pro hac vice in any other proceedings before the
`
`Office in the last three years.
`
`13. I currently represent Patent Owner, Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe, in other patent
`
`matters and as a result have specialized knowledge of tribal sovereign immunity,
`
`which is a subject matter at issue in this proceeding.
`
`14. I have also represented other sovereigns, such as the University of Florida
`
`Research Foundation, Inc., which gives me unique and specialized knowledge
`
`concerning the application of tribal sovereign immunity in inter partes review.
`
`15. I am familiar with the subject matter of US. Patent Nos. 8,685,930, 8,629,1 11,
`
`8,642,556, 8,633,162, 8,648,048, and 9,248,191 that at issue in this proceeding,
`
`including their prosecution histories.
`
`16. I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own knowledge are true
`
`and further that all statements herein are made with knowledge that willful false
`
`statements and the like are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under
`
`Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
