`In the Notice of Filing Date Accorded to Petition (“Notice”) mailed

`
`vice admission under 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c). The Notice requires that such motions

`
`Petitioner Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Petitioner”) hereby respectfully
`
`requests that the Board recognize Mr. Jonathan D. Olinger as counsel pro hac vice
`
`during this proceeding. This Motion is not opposed by Patent Owner.
`

`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice admission is filed no sooner than twenty-one
`
`(21) days after service of the petition, as required by the Order.
`
`2. Statement of Facts
`
`The following statement of facts shows that there exists good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Mr. Olinger pro hac vice.
`
`Mr. Olinger is an experienced litigation attorney, and has been involved in
`
`numerous litigations involving patent infringement in federal courts across the
`
`country. Mr. Olinger has experience in jury and bench trials, Markman hearings,
`
`and Federal Circuit briefing in patent and trademark infringement litigation. Mr.

`
`
`U.S. Patent No. 6,649,180 is currently asserted against Petitioner in Warner
`
`Chilcott (US), LLC et al. v. Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Case No. 2:15-cv-
`
`01740-JRG-RSP (E.D. Texas) (the “co-pending litigation”). Mr. Olinger is
`
`counsel for Petitioner in the co-pending litigation, and as such, has an established
`
`familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this proceeding. In the co-pending
`
`litigation, Mr. Olinger has reviewed prior art, developed invalidity arguments,
`
`developed claim construction arguments, managed fact and expert discovery, and
`
`drafted motion papers. Petitioner has expended significant financial resources in
`
`the co-pending litigation with Mr. Olinger as counsel, and Petitioner wishes to
`
`continue using Mr. Olinger as counsel in this proceeding.
`
`Further, counsel for Patent Owner does not oppose Mr. Olinger appearing as
`
`pro hac vice in this proceeding.
`
`Therefore, Petitioner respectfully submits that there is good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Mr. Olinger as counsel pro hac vice during this proceeding.
`
`3. Affidavit or Declaration of Individual Seeking to Appear
`
`This Motion for Pro Hac Vice Admission is accompanied by the declaration
`
`of Mr. Jonathan D. Olinger, as required by the Order.
