`
`
`
`DECLARATION OF ZACHARIAH SUMMERS IN SUPPORT OF
`MOTION FOR ADMISSION PRO HAC VICE
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I, Zachariah Summers, declare as follows:
`
`
`
`1.
`
`I am a member in good standing of the Bar of the State of New York
`
`(Bar No. 5179601) and Bar of the State of California (Bar No. 255284).
`
`
`
`2.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any court
`
`or administrative body.
`
`
`
`3.
`
`I have never been denied when applying to practice law before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`4.
`
`I have never been subject to sanctions or contempt citations imposed
`
`by any court or administrative body.
`
`
`
`5.
`
`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 37 Code of Federal
`
`Regulations.
`
`
`
`6.
`
`I will be subject to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s 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).
`
`
`
`7.
`
`In the past three years, I have applied to appear pro hac vice before the
`
`Office in IPR2023-00442 and Patent Interference No. 106,115 and am applying to
`
`appear pro hac vice in IPR2023-00739 contemporaneously with the present
`
`application.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`I have applied to appear pro hac vice before the Office within the last three years in
`
`Patent Interference No. 106,115.
`
`
`
`8.
`
`I am an attorney at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP and an
`
`experienced litigator.
`
`
`
`9.
`
`I have been practicing law since 2008. I have had extensive experience
`
`litigating patent infringement cases over the past fifteen years, including experience
`
`drafting pleadings, expert discovery, and specialized patent-related proceedings
`
`such as Markman briefing and invalidity contentions.
`
`
`
`10. Also, I have established familiarity with the subject matter at issue in
`
`this proceeding and related co-pending litigation. I have conducted a detailed review
`
`of the ’572 Patent, the relevant prior art, and the prosecution history and related
`
`patents. A significant amount of my time over the past year has been spent working
`
`on issues related to the ’572 Patent, related patents, and Patent Owner’s commercial
`
`product, Eylea®. Therefore, I have significant experience with the subject matter
`
`of this proceeding.
`
`
`
`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 so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both,
`
`under Section 1001 of Title 18 of the United States Code.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Date: January 4, 2024 Respectfully submitted,
`
`By: /s/ Zachariah Summers
