`U.S. Patent No. 10,049,080
`Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`I, Jiaxing (Kyle) Xu, declare as follows:
`
`1.
`
`I am a Senior Associate at the law firm of Hogan Lovells US LLP. I
`
`represent and counsel Petitioner Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (“Petitioner”), in
`
`connection with the above-captioned inter partes review proceeding.
`
`2.
`
`I have been a member in good standing of the bars of California, New
`
`York, and U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
`
`3.
`
`I have not been suspended or disbarred from practice before any court
`
`or administrative body.
`
`4.
`
`I have never had an application for admission to practice before any
`
`court or administrative body denied.
`
`5.
`
`I have never had a sanction or contempt citation imposed against me by
`
`any court or administrative body.
`
`6.
`
`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 C.F.R.
`
`7.
`
`I understand that I will be subject to the USPTO Rules of Professional
`
`Conduct set forth in 37 C.F.R. §§ 11.101 et seq. and disciplinary jurisdiction
`
`pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 11.19(a).
`
`8.
`
`I practice patent law, including patent litigation before courts and
`
`agencies, including U.S. District Courts and the International Trade Commission,

`

`U.S. Patent No. 10,049,080
`Petition for Inter Partes Review
`and have done so throughout my career as an attorney since 2019.
`
`9.
`
`As a part of my patent litigation experience, I have significant
`
`knowledge and experience with litigating invalidity defenses, preparing witnesses
`
`for depositions and materials for taking depositions, and handling evidentiary issues.
`
`10.
`
`I have worked on proceedings before the Board dating back to 2021.
`
`This work experience includes: assisting with the preparation of petitions and other
`
`submissions and preparing witnesses for deposition. I have not applied to appear pro
`
`hac vice in any other proceedings before the Board in the last three (3) years.
`
`11.
`
`To date, I have worked with the named lead and back-up counsel to
`
`develop and analyze the legal and factual issues raised in the Petition. I have been
`
`significantly involved in the preparation of the Petition and supporting evidence,
`
`particularly through my work in the parallel litigation involving this patent before
`
`the United States International Trade Commission. Through this involvement, I have
`
`gained in-depth familiarity with the arguments and evidence supporting the Petition,
`
`including through the review and analysis of documents such as the challenged
`
`patent, the prosecution history of the challenged patent, technical literature, the
`
`expert declaration, and other sources of information.
`
`12.
`
`I will work in coordination and association with the designated lead
`
`counsel, Celine Jimenez Crowson, for the duration of my involvement in this
`

`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. I further declare that these statements were 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 and that such
`
`willful false statements may jeopardize the validity of this proceeding.
