`
`That litigation involves U.S. Patent 6,239, 614 (“’614 patent”), the patent at issue

`
`charts. Further, Mr. Young is familiar with the factual and legal matters at issue in

`
`Young has thus established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in this
`
`proceeding.

`Mr. Young has read and will comply with the Office Patent Trial Practice
`
`Guide and the Board’s Rules of Practice for Trials Before the Patent Trial and
`
`Appeal Board set forth in part 42 of 37 C.F.R., and he agrees to be subject to the
`
`USPTO 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).
