`Petitioners’ Exhibit No. 1044
`Declaration of Amy R. Pearlman in Support of
`Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice
`
`
`
`I, Amy R. Pearlman, declare as follows:
`1.
`I am an associate at the law firm of Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and
`
`Dorr LLP in Boston, Massachusetts.
`
`2.
`
`I have been practicing law for almost 3 years. My practice during that
`
`time has focused on intellectual property litigation, and particularly, patent
`
`litigation.
`
`3.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bars of the Commonwealth of
`
`Massachusetts (Bar No. 704152) and the District of Columbia (Bar No. 241319). I
`
`am also admitted to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the
`
`Fourth Circuit, the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts,
`
`the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, and the
`
`United States District Court for the District of Maryland.
`
`4.
`
`I have gained experience with Patent Office rules, regulations, and
`
`procedures by participating in the litigation of cases involving issues of claim
`
`construction, allegations of inequitable conduct, prosecution history disclaimer,
`
`and other issues for which review of a patent’s prosecution history is critical.
`
`5.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred by any court or
`
`administration body.

`U.S. Patent No. 9,807,922
`Petitioners’ Exhibit No. 1044
`Declaration of Amy R. Pearlman in Support of
`Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice
`
`6.
`
`I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application
`
`
`
`
`for admission to practice.
`
`7.
`
`I have never been sanctioned or cited for contempt by any court or
`
`administrative body.
`
`8.
`
`I have read and will comply with Office Patent Trial Practice Guide
`
`and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials, as set forth in Part 42 of 37 C.F.R.
`
`9.
`
`I agree to be subject to the United States Patent and Trademark Office
`
`Rules of Professional Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et. seq. and
`
`disciplinary jurisdiction under 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a).
`
`10.
`
`I have never appeared pro hac vice before the United States Patent
`
`and Trademark Office.
`
`11.
`
`I am familiar with the subject matter at issue in these proceedings. I
`
`have reviewed the papers and exhibits filed in these proceedings. I also
`
`participated in drafting the Petitions for Inter Partes Review and Petitioners’
`
`Replies in these proceedings and have reviewed Patent Owner’s Preliminary
`
`Responses and Patent Owner’s Responses filed in these proceedings.
`
`12.
`
`I am representing the Petitioners, AGCO Corporation and Precision
`
`Planting, LLC, in the following United States District Court case: Deere &
`
`3
`
`
`
`Case No. IPR2019-01050
`U.S. Patent No. 9,807,922
`Petitioners’ Exhibit No. 1044
`Declaration of Amy R. Pearlman in Support of
`Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice
`
`
`
`Company v. AGCO Corporation and Precision Planting, LLC, C.A. No. 18-827
`
`(CFC) (D. Del.) (Consolidated), which involves the patents at issue in these
`
`proceedings, as well as the prior art references at issue in these proceedings. This
`
`case is currently stayed pending resolution of the above-captioned Inter Partes
`
`Review proceeding.
`
`13. One of the reasons why I seek admission pro hac vice in these
`
`proceedings is to gain more experience in taking depositions. I am a relatively
`
`junior lawyer, but I have gained extensive experience with the relevant issues in
`
`these proceedings and in the parallel district court litigation. Thus, being admitted
`
`pro hac vice in these proceedings will provide opportunities for me to advance my
`
`development of the proper advocacy skills and experience to effectively represent
`
`my clients before the Board now and in the future.
`
`14.
`
`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 are punishable by fine, imprisonment, or
`
`both, under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
