`
`I, Jorge Mares, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am admitted and licensed as an attorney and counselor at law to
`
`
`
`
`
`practice in all state Courts of the State of Texas.
`
`
`
`2. My practice has been primarily commercial litigation, including
`
`intellectual property litigation.
`
`
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the State Bar of Texas. I am also
`
`admitted to practice in the United States District Court for the Eastern, Western
`
`and Southern District of Texas.
`
`
`
`4.
`
` I have never been admonished, sanctioned, suspended or disbarred by
`
`any court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`5.
`
`I have never been admonished, sanctioned, suspended or disbarred by
`
`any court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`6.
`
`I have never had an application for admission to practice before any
`
`court or administrative body denied.
`
`
`
`7.
`
`I have never had any sanctions or contempt citations imposed against
`
`me by any court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`8.
`
`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 title 37 of
`
`the C.F.R.

`
`
`
`9.
`
`I agree
`
`to be subject
`
`to
`
`the USPTO Code of Professional
`
`Responsibility as set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq. and disciplinary
`
`jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R § 11.19(a).
`
`
`
`10.
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter in this proceeding, as well as
`
`petitioner’s intellectual property. Further, I am familiar with the patent owner’s
`
`patent that is in dispute in this Inter Partes Review and the reasons for its
`
`invalidity.
`
`I am a member of the team that is preparing not only the petitioners’
`11.
`
`Inter Partes Review petition in this case, I am also actively assisting in the
`preparation of several other Inter Partes Review petitions which are challenging
`patents owned by the same patent owner that covers the same or similar technology
`and same or similar claims as Patent No. 8,394,618 B2.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
