`
`I, Charles M. Stiernberg, am an associate at the law firm of Quinn
`
`Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP and provide this declaration in support of Pet-
`
`titioners’ Motion for my expedited pro hac vice admission. I have personal

`
`would testify competently thereto.

`
`I have litigated patent infringement disputes for more than three years,
`
`including involvement in fact and expert discovery, Markman briefing and hear-
`
`ings, and oral arguments in patent infringement matters before Federal district
`
`courts in Delaware, Texas, and California. My work as a patent litigation attorney
`
`has been in multiple areas of technology, including the technical areas of electronic
`
`device software and hardware.
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the State Bar of California. (Bar.
`
`No. 294448).
`
`4.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`5.
`
`No court or administrative body has ever denied my application for
`
`admission to practice before it.
`
`6.
`
`No court or administrative body has ever imposed sanctions or con-
`
`tempt citations on me.
`

`I have read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
