`
`I, Rachel Capoccia, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am an experienced litigation attorney with more
`
`than twenty (20) years of experience.
`
`2.
`
`I have been
`
`litigating patent cases for approximately
`
`seventeen (17) years.
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the California State Bar
`
`and am admitted to practice in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
`
`Circuit, United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the United States
`
`District Courts for the Central, Northern, Southern, and Eastern Districts of
`
`California and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
`
`4.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from
`
`practice before any court or administrative body.
`
`5.
`
`I have never had an application for admission to
`
`practice before any court or administrative body denied.
`
`6.
`
`I have had no sanctions or contempt citations imposed
`
`against me by any court or administrative body.
`
`7.
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding, including the patent-at-issue. I am lead counsel for JVC
`
`KENWOOD Corporation and Panasonic Corporation (and related corporate
`
`entities) in the pending district court case In re: Papst Licensing Digital
`

`
`

`

`
`IPR2016-01213
`
`Camera Patent Litigation – MDL No. 1880, Case No. 07-mc-00493 (D.D.C.),
`
`which has been pending since 2007 and involves the same patent at issue in this
`
`proceeding, as well as related patents in the same family (including another
`
`patent that is the subject of additional instituted Inter Partes Review
`
`proceedings).
`
`8.
`
`I have been actively involved in all aspects of the pending
`
`district court case, including proceedings related to issues of invalidity of all
`
`patents-in-suit, and arguing on behalf of all defendants in claim construction
`
`proceedings with respect to other related patents-in-suit in 2008, and with
`
`respect to this patent and other related patents-in-suit in 2016. I also argued on
`
`behalf of all defendants at the Federal Circuit regarding Papst’s appeal of the
`
`District Court’s non-infringement summary judgment rulings regarding related
`
`patents at issue in the District Court case.
`
`9.
`
`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 part 42
`
`of 37 C.F.R.
`
`10.
`
`I agree to be subject to the USPTO Code of Professional
`
`Responsibility set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§10.20 et seq., and to disciplinary
`
`jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. §11.19(a).
`

`
`

`

`11.
`
`I have not previously applied to appear pro hac vice before
`
`
`IPR2016-01213
`
`the Office.
`
`12.
`
`I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own
`
`knowledge are true and that all statements made on information and belief are
`
`believed to be true; and further that these statements are made with the
`
`knowledge that willful false statements and the like so made are punishable by
